Chapter 129: Invasion of Soviet airspace
ps. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the starting point 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!
As soon as it took off, the fighter plane climbed upwards at an elevation angle of more than 60 degrees, and the other fighters following behind were also doing the same thing. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Just this one take-off action, when I just came to the Misawa base, I envied the pilots of the 13th flight team flying F-4, this is called a fighter! Take off at a large elevation angle! If it's an F-4, it's going to fall off!
Four AIM-9J missiles and two AIM-7F missiles are hung on the six underwing hardpoints under the wing, four AIM-7F missiles are mounted at the four outboard hardpoints (including two under the air intake), and a large auxiliary fuel tank is mounted on the centerline hardpoints of the fuselage.
This is a typical air combat mount! Ten missiles, enough for the Soviets! Moreover, these missiles are the latest American air-to-air missiles!
In the Vietnam War, the United States Air Force mainly used the AIM-9G missile, this missile still uses a vacuum tube, the performance is very poor, in order to solve the problem of vacuum tube circuit caused by the poor reliability of the missile, Ford Aerospace used transistor circuit to transform the AIM-9H missile, this type of missile retains most of the AIM-9G guidance and control system, and the tracking rate is increased to 20 degrees per second, becoming the most mobile missile at that time.
And the current AIM-9J is improved from the AIM-9H, which has increased the firing range and improved anti-jamming ability, and, due to the improved performance of the seeker, this kind of reverse also has a certain omnidirectional attack capability! This missile to the AIM-9L missile, which was widely equipped in later generations. There is only a time difference of three years, 75 years of this missile equipment, and the AIM-9L was equipped in 78 years, which is an improvement on the basis of the AIM-9J. It has omnidirectional attack capability, which improves the power and speed of the warhead, and has strong maneuverability.
Meantime. The AIM-7F missile, which only entered service in 76 years, has made considerable progress compared with the previous Sparrow missile, and its power section is equipped with a new two-stage thrust engine Hercules MK., which can allow the missile to reach a longer range than the AIM-7E2; the guidance and control section is composed of solid-state electronic components, which has improved reliability; in addition, it has also been replaced with a high-power missile warhead. Except for its low resistance to radar signals reflected from the ground, especially when performing downward firing at low altitudes, this missile has few shortcomings.
The armament of these two missiles. The pilots of the 14th flight team were full of confidence, and in addition to a few fighters that were undergoing maintenance, this time the flight team dispatched 18 fighters to Sakhalin Island!
Yes, this is a provocative flight, just to protest with force against the Soviets! Let the Soviets know that the Americans did not hesitate to use force in order to defend justice!
Eighteen F-15 fighters. It takes off sequentially from the Misawa base while flying over Hokkaido. Eight F-4EJ fighters of the 2nd Air Force of the 201st Air Force at the Chitose base in the island nation will come together and go to Sakhalin to protest to the Soviets.
"Fox Hunting Brigade, Fox Hunting Brigade, pay attention, fifty kilometers of airspace ahead, the Chitose Flying Team is waiting." An AWACS notification came from the headset.
The famous E-3 early warning aircraft in later generations. It has just entered service this month, equipped with the first US Air Force plane, and it has not yet been sent to the Far East, and this time it is an EC-121 early warning plane that took off from the Yokota base in the rear.
The EC-121 family of electronic warfare and AWACS aircraft was developed from the C-121 transport aircraft. There are many models. For example, the EC-121D and K are mainly used for early warning and training, the EC-121M is used for early warning, the EC-121P is an anti-submarine detection platform, the EC-121Q early warning and control platform, and so on.
Among them, the EC-121C is the first EC-121 series early warning aircraft of the United States Air Force, which was put into use in October 1953, with a 2.44-meter-long radar cover on the back of the fuselage, and an AN/APS-20 search radar is installed, which can provide early warning information within a range of 400 kilometers.
"Fox Hunt Squadron received." Nathaniel replied on the radio that those signals had already appeared on the radar monitor in front of him, and the friend or foe identified them as friendly forces, and it was an F-4 fighter of the island nation.
In fact, it is enough to carry out this mission, and it is enough to have these F-15 fighters of their own, but the Air Force Command obviously let the Island Air Self-Defense Force accompany it for the sake of insurance, in fact, in case of danger, let these guys be cannon fodder.
As you can see from the layout, although there are two air bases in Hokkaido, there is no US Air Force stationed on them, it is too dangerous there, and the Misawa base is a little further back, which is also considered from the strategic depth.
The distance of fifty kilometers is only a matter of a few minutes for fighters, and soon, the F-4 fighters of the island country air force appeared in front of them.
"Chitose Flying Team, Chitose Flying Team, please join the formation." Nathaniel shouted over the radio.
The frequencies have been coordinated, and on the same frequency band, the order of the 14 flight team was received, and eight F-4 fighters joined in.
Captain Yamada operated his own fighters, looking at these American planes, he couldn't help but be envious, looking at the appearance, he knew that these latest American fighters have strong combat effectiveness, and they can completely compete with the most advanced fighters of the Soviet Union!
Thanks to the relationship between the two countries, the Air Self-Defense Force has also purchased a batch of such fighters, and the earliest should be able to join the Air Self-Defense Force within two years, and then they will not have to fear the MiG-25 of the Soviets!
When it comes to the MiG-25, Captain Yamada is a little afraid, and now, the entire Air Self-Defense Force is circulating news that the performance of that kind of fighter is quite strong, and all the fighters on his side cannot compete with it, and when it encounters an attack by this kind of fighter, he can't beat it, and he can't run away!
When you go to Sakhalin this time, will you fight with this kind of fighter? However, remembering that Sakhalin was forcibly separated from the territory of the island nation by the Soviets after World War II, Warrant Officer Yamada plucked up the courage to fight for the honor of the Great Japanese Empire!
Twenty-six warplanes, flying over Hokkaido, flew straight to Sakhalin Island across the Sea of Okhotsk, and when they were assembling over Hokkaido, they were already spotted by a long-range radar station on Sakhalin Island.
The Americans are menacing!
Sharp sirens echoed over the Kamene Iruchii base.
Alert! The Americans dispatched a large number of warplanes in a vain attempt to invade the airspace of Sakhalin!
As the southernmost base, the Kamene Irukii base directly faced the US fighters over Hokkaido, and in the past, in order to avoid accidents, the Americans and the islanders flew in an east-west direction over Hokkaido.
Soviet airspace, sacrosanct!
The Su-15 interceptor group of the 592nd regiment, which took off in a rapid emergency.
[It's about to be 515, I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list, and the red envelope rain will be able to give back to readers and promotional works on May 15. A piece is also love, and it must be better! (To be continued.) )
