Chapter 180: Supersonic Interception

Anti-daoban chapter, look after seven o'clock. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The pilots of the F-15 fighters visually spotted those missiles, but that doesn't mean they were able to shoot them down, because the cruise missiles' radar reflection area is small, and the infrared signature is also small, so that neither the Sparrow missile nor the Sidewinder missile can lock onto the target.

A wingman test-fired a Sidewinder missile, however, it did not hit the target.

Seeing this, the long plane of the F-15 finally made a decision: to use the M61A120-mm "Green" cannon inside the root fairing of the right wing!

When the aircraft was just invented, it was the use of machine guns as air combat weapons, with the advancement of technology, after World War II, entered the era of missiles, once the new type of aircraft, there was no aviation artillery at all, such as the famous second-generation aircraft F-4 in the United States, however, practice has proved that this scheme is flawed, missiles are not omnipotent, for example, in the present, missiles can not intercept the target, then, it is necessary to use aviation artillery to solve the other party.

The M61A1 is a kind of aircraft gun widely used on the third-generation fighter of the United States, which is mainly used for air combat at a distance of less than 600 meters to make up for the launch dead zone of combat missiles. There are 940 rounds of ammunition in reserve, and the rate of fire is 4000 rounds / min and 6000 rounds / minute, which can be set by the pilot.

The pilot of the F-15 first made the attack, he flew above the missiles, and then, pushing the rod sharply, bowed his head, and then, the fire flashed in the right wing, and a series of bullets rained down on the missiles below.

The sound of a heavy concrete boring machine reached the pilot's ears, the 20 mm Gatling 6-barreled gun, the barrel of which was spinning and a rain of bullets pouring down, forming a dense fog of bullets that flew towards the missiles in front.

Before entering the air above the target, the Red Bird No. 3 missile, not knowing that it had suffered an attack, was still flying forward according to the predetermined route, as a result, the body was firmly hit by a 20 mm cannon shell, this kind of high-power shell, as long as it was hit by one shot, the missile body, can not withstand the blow, a Red Bird No. 3 missile, unfortunately in the rain of bullets was hit in the fuel tank, the entire missile, exploded into a fireball.

It worked! Use cannons against these missiles, and sure enough! The pilot was greatly encouraged, however, on the panel in front of the cockpit, it was shown that the ammunition had been exhausted!

This kind of cannon has a high rate of fire and a fog area, which can increase the probability of hitting the target, but there are also disadvantages, that is, it is too wasteful of ammunition! 6,000 rounds per minute, all the spare ammunition, will be shot out in less than 10 seconds, just now patronizing his own shooting, did not notice, this kind of aerial gun firing process, is very short.

The other pilots also followed the example of a long plane, flew over those missiles, and then, like dragonflies dotting water, dived and attacked.

Although the average annual flight time of the Israeli Air Force is almost the longest in the world, they rarely train to use aerial guns, and not everyone can hit the target.

If you want to shoot down these targets on land, it will become very difficult, all kinds of buildings, will be the natural enemy of the aircraft, if you are not careful, you will crash into the buildings, and, even if they are highly skilled, they will not be able to dive and strafe like they did on the sea just now, because there is their land below, and there are their people on it, and 20 mm shells, if they are poured on the ground, as long as someone is swept away, it will definitely be blown to pieces.

Moreover, because there are too many buildings on the ground, they have lost the trail of those missiles.

However, those missiles must be going to attack Dimona!

The Israeli air defense forces, having received the news of the arrival of the second batch of missiles, immediately made full preparations, knowing that there was very little time left for their own attack, and this missile, flying too low! In addition to the Hawk anti-aircraft missiles, which turned their heads and aimed at the sky to the west, Israel urgently brought in self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and portable anti-aircraft missiles, which were all guarded here.

The density of anti-aircraft weapons here, in just half an hour, has increased several times!

Esther is still directing the rescue effort, especially the dome building, which is Israel's most important reactor, and because it was built to be able to withstand aerial bombs, the reactor has not collapsed.

The building must be reinforced! Esther instructed the workers to erect a scaffolding to add strength to the reactor, hoping to survive the crisis for a while and recuperate.

"Professor, the enemy attack is coming again, please dodge." A soldier said.

"No, it's dangerous here, and it must be reinforced quickly, otherwise it may not be able to withstand the next blow!" "I have to stay here, that's my job. ”。

"But I'm on your job, Professor, you must get out of here!" As he spoke, the soldier pulled Erstur up by the big hand, and before he could react, two more men came over and put him on a car outside.

The second batch of Red Bird 3 missiles came from a long distance, and when they came, the first batch of attacks had already ended half an hour, and because they had been discovered on the sea, their attack was intercepted most strongly.

Although no targets were initially found, when the Red Bird III began to climb, they were exposed to radar on the ground, as well as to the furious Israeli air defenses that were waiting for them.

Hawk missiles, portable Stinger missiles, anti-aircraft guns, automatic rifles, all the firepower, are firing into the sky.

However, at this time, the Red Bird 3 missile has entered the serpentine maneuver at the end of the stage, and the design of the Red Bird 3 is largely borrowed from the tactics of C801, and the anti-ship missile will be attacked by the opponent's close-range weapons when it finally attacks the warship, especially in later generations, the emergence of systems such as phalanx, so it is necessary for the missile to make irregular trajectories in the final flight.

The Red Bird III's attack also used a serpentine maneuver at the end, they didn't know that there were so many weapons on the ground firing at them, they just knew that they would faithfully carry out their every command until they hit the target, or until they were shot down.

The Stinger anti-aircraft missile encountered the same difficulties as the F-15 fighters, because the infrared signature of the opponent was too weak, so it could not lock on to the target, and even if some locked on the target and launched the missile, there was no result.
