Chapter 4 Aerial Scalpel

Americans, Lao Tzu is coming! In an instant, Andre's eyes were full of madness, and in his mind, the picture of the year appeared again.

The Americans' EP-3 flew wantonly over the South China Sea, reconnoitring the mainland's electromagnetic signals, and Wang Wei, a brave and fearless naval aviation pilot, piloted a long-outdated J-8II fighter and went to intercept it with the long plane; in the course of confrontation between the two sides, the American pilots maliciously approached Wang Wei's landline, and the huge EP-3 plane quickly crashed into the fuselage behind Wang Wei's J-8II plane. Before Wang Wei could react, the nose and left wing of the US plane collided with the rear fuselage of Wang Wei's plane, and the outer propeller of the left wing, like a chainsaw, smashed the vertical tail of Wang Wei's J-8II plane into pieces.

It was a malicious crash! The hero Wang Wei's landline lost its tail and could not continue to fly, in desperation, Wang Wei chose to parachute, since then, he has never been found, the republic has lost an excellent pilot, Wang Wei's spirit, but it is inspiring all the people of the republic, including the pilots who fight in the sky! Before the crossing, although he was not a person from the front-line combat unit, he still kept this shame in his heart.

Now, encountering the EP-3 of the Americans again, Andrei's heart is naturally full of anger, bullying the old J-8II is okay, now, let you taste the power of Lao Tzu's stainless steel fighter!

In this era, the pursuit of speed is endless, when the speed exceeds Mach 2.5, a problem called thermal barrier will follow, due to friction with the air, a lot of heat will be generated, when the speed is low, it can be ignored, but when the speed reaches Mach 3, the temperature of the nose will exceed 300 degrees!

At this temperature, the aluminum alloy will be as soft as toilet paper, and there is no need to say any maneuvers, and even normal flight cannot be guaranteed.

In order to allow the aircraft to break through this forbidden area, the United States and the Soviet Union have adopted their own methods, and the Americans have used advanced titanium alloys to manufacture, giving birth to the SR-71 Blackbird, a reconnaissance aircraft, in addition to being expensive, the performance is also quite limited, and there is almost no maneuverability, so it can only be used for reconnaissance, and cannot be used for air combat. And the Soviet Union, on the other hand, adopted a simple and crude way, that is, stainless steel!

Some bricks have conclusive analysis that the stainless steel body of the MiG-25 is bulky, and the structural strength of the fuselage can only be sacrificed in order to reduce the weight, so the MiG-25 cannot withstand the maneuvering action of high G-value, so that the MiG-25 can only be used as an interceptor and reconnaissance aircraft, which is completely on paper! The MiG-25 uses a stainless steel body, which is quite strong, and there have been pilots who have pulled out 11.5G overloads, and the fighter is still good. In fact, at that time, the Soviet Union's Yevachkin Design Bureau, which was later the Sukhoi Design Bureau, had already built a titanium alloy T-4 verification machine, and the titanium alloy technology had already passed, but the Soviet Union still chose stainless steel after comparison.

The aluminum alloy J-8II can't beat the EP-3, but the stainless steel MiG-25 is different!

The overall frame of the MiG-25 is made of stainless steel, and the tail is tall and vertical, which is also made of stainless steel!

The two engines in the tail spewed flames, and Andrei operated the MiG-25 fighter and flew quickly towards the EP-3.

At this time, the departure of EP-3 has entered the countdown, and in another thirty seconds, all the data collection is completed, and this mission is over, although there are terrible Soviet planes following, it seems that it has not done anything to its own side, and it has just been tossed for so long, and it has no effect.

Polar bears are not scary! They are also afraid of misfire!

With such a mentality, the Americans on the plane are no longer afraid, but with ease, after this mission, they can go to Hawaii for vacation, find a beautiful woman, and show off this operation!

"032, pay attention to the height!" The sound of a long machine came from the headphones, and at this time, Belenko already sensed that something was wrong.

Generally speaking, the planes that expel the other party fly above the other party, and after flying over the nose of the plane, they press the operating stick, just like another car on the highway, forcing the other party to follow and steer, and amuse them.

But now, Andrei's fighter plane is at a lower altitude than the opponent's, what's going on with Andrei?

Flying in the air is measured in seconds, just after Belenko gave the order, Andrei's fighter plane had already flown to the rear and bottom of the EP-3, and then, under Belenko's gaze, Andrei's plane flew quickly under the opponent.

Damn, it's so close, it's going to crash!

The MiG-25 does not have any backward visibility, and when doing this, Andrei can only rely on his own experience to drive.

In order to have sufficient lateral control capabilities at thin altitudes, the MiG-25 has a tall vertical tail, moreover, a double-vertical tail layout! This is the world's first double-tail fighter, the Americans' F-15 fighter, the choice of aerodynamic shape, from the MiG-25 to get a lot of inspiration.

And now, the advantage of this double vertical tail is that in case one of the vertical tails is injured, Andrei will also be able to drive the fighter back!

Andrei's plane flew quickly from the left side of the opponent, and in order to ensure the effect, when the opponent's wings swept over Andrei's head, Andrei deliberately pulled the operating stick back.

"Andrey, press the operating lever, it's going to crash!" Belenko in the rear saw it clearly, Andrei's nose flew over, and the right side of the tail hung down, but it would collide with the American EP-3.

Unfortunately, his reminder was too late, and before his words fell, the tall vertical tail on the right side of the MiG-25 had already crossed the outside of the wing on the left side of the EP-3, near the No. 1 engine!

The sharp hanging tail, like a knife, cut off the outside of the left wing of the EP-3 in unison! The vertical tail continued forward, colliding with the propeller, and sparks of metal flew up.

Andrey's first close encounter with the American EP-3 ended like this, and when Andrei pushed the accelerator and accelerated away, the EP-3 was already shaking like a leaf in the wind.

Damn the Soviets, what a madman! In the porthole of the main observation station on the port side of the EP-3, the observer watched his wing being cut and falling, and looked at the sparks of the propeller of engine No. 1 outside, and couldn't help but shout: "Quick, turn off engine No. 1, our wing is cut off!" ”
