Chapter 179: Lucky Escape
readx;
---------------------- fact, if the super seven is replaced with the F404 engine, then the maneuverability of the entire aircraft can be improved again, and because the engine is fuel-efficient, it can also increase the range, but the original intention of the development of this aircraft is to reduce costs and sell it in large quantities to the air forces of third world countries. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info╔╗
Only a fighter with excellent cost performance like the MiG-21 can satisfy those potential customers in Africa, and the focus of the modification is avionics.
Therefore, in this air battle, due to the lack of Salle's tactics, he is now facing a crisis, in fact, the aerodynamic performance of Super Seven is still very good, if he and the other party are fighting in the horizontal direction, he will not fall behind at all. It's a pity that he was inexperienced and fell for the other party's flying old bird.
The F-15 swooped down from high altitude in an elegant manner, and another Sidewinder missile on the wingtip was ready for launch.
Since this time it is not an air superiority mount, it only carries two short-range Sidewinder missiles, but even ordinary air superiority fighters only carry two short-range missiles, and important air battles are solved at over-the-horizon.
The one just flew away, and this one will definitely not miss the target again, because, at this time, it is facing the opponent's tail nozzle, this missile originally has the ability to attack in all directions, and now, facing the tail nozzle, the blazing heat flow, is the best target, and there is no need to worry about losing the target. ╔╗
Another Sidewinder missile, followed and flew out.
At this time, Salle was trying to save the plane, because when he did that dangerous tail rush just now, his plane was swept into a downward airflow.
I wanted to flatten the plane, but the plane was no longer under his control, but incredibly continued to fall downward.
Pull up, pull up! At this time. There were enemy planes in the back, their own planes, which again went into a terrible tailspin.
The roar was gone, and the engine behind it, unable to withstand this tremendous destructive force, finally. Stopped working. Engine Stop!
When the engine stops, it means that he loses power, and it is even more difficult to change it.
In the midst of this violent movement, the missile, which hung on the launcher and did not disengage, somehow, perhaps was the reason for the more violent vibration. ╔╗Finally, the pylon is unlocked!
Then, the missile, heading downwards, flew out, just at this moment. It's just an uncontrolled rocket!
Salle didn't know that a missile was flying in his tail, because the engine stalled, causing the power to be cut off, and the emergency power was only enough to ensure basic flight maneuvers.
Even if Salle found out that there were missiles flying from behind, he had nothing to deal with, because. The current aircraft is not under his control at all.
So, that Sidewinder missile, actually slipped past his tail. When chasing the Sky Flash missile, he could only say that his luck was not ordinarily good.
At the last minute, he managed to change it out, and, moreover, restarted the engine.
Sall broke away from the battlefield and returned safely to his base.
Only this time, the Benghazi base in Libya, suffered heavy losses. ╔╗
Several planes that took off later, because they could not get the guidance of ground radar, and could not find the target, they were shot down by the US Navy F-18 aircraft that came later with Sparrow missiles, and then, they rushed to Benghazi, and the base was also bombed, and the super seven fighters that did not take off were also shot down two, and their surface-to-air missiles with passive seeker did not achieve any results, and the F-18 flying at ultra-low altitude used anti-radiation missiles to destroy the air defense positions arranged there, and then, The F-15 also arrived, dropping the bomb it was carrying to Benghazi.
The original victory was because of the help of Qusay, and Qusay's prophet predicted the direction of the opponent's attack and laid a trap, and now, the air defense system of the Libyan Air Force, their command ability and combat level, are simply not comparable with the Americans.
This battle completely shattered Colonel Gaddafi's confidence, he didn't believe that such an excellent fighter in the mouth of the Pakistanis could end up like this, three were shot down, seven more were lost on the ground, and the super seven deployed in Benghazi lost half of it!
The ground-to-air missile forces, on which he had high hopes, also did not achieve any results.
This time it's Benghazi, what about next time? Could it be Tripoli?
Qusay received war reports from both sides almost at the same time, in the South China Sea, the exercises were shamelessly sabotaged by the Americans, a 4,000-ton Perry-class frigate, let their four warships end the anti-submarine exercises, and they relied on the underwater nuclear submarine to deter the American warships. ╔╗
Navy! A strong navy cannot be built overnight. In his hand, Cusai already had a copy of the appointment.
The captain of the modern class, Abdul, handed over the warship to the command of the deputy captain, who was promoted to captain, and Abdul, who was to be transferred to the Soviet Union for a year of training.
Because, when Iraq's first domestically built aircraft carrier was about to be delivered to the troops, Qusay did not have a suitable aircraft carrier captain at hand.
This is a difficult choice, in later generations, the eastern powers have long had foresight, in 87 years, held a pilot captain class, some pilots, sent to transfer to the ship course, become the captain of the warship, among them, there is the first captain of the Liaoning
Li Xiaoyan, from that time, began to reserve talents for his aircraft carrier. ╔╗The deputy captain of the Liaoning, Zhang Zheng, was born in the navy and served as the captain of frigates and destroyers, and then was promoted to captain after Li Xiaoyan was transferred to a new position.
Two people, one was born as a pilot and changed careers to engage in ships, while the other was born as a captain and learned to fly, which is a process from scratch.
In the United States, if you want to become the captain of an aircraft carrier, you must be the captain of the carrier-based aircraft wing, and they are gradually promoted and have rich experience, which is the choice after the talent reserve reaches a certain level.
Iraq's choice is even tougher.
Because the Iraqi Navy is very weak, and they are experiencing rapid development, the establishment of the Naval Academy at the beginning allowed the Iraqi Navy to obtain valuable talents to prepare for the large-scale reception of warships in the future.
The personnel of the aircraft carrier are also in full swing preparations, among which, in addition to the pilots of carrier-based aircraft, the rest of the personnel are also being selected, the most important of which is the captain of the aircraft carrier.
If you are selected from among the pilots, it will take a long time to change to a ship course, and you will not be able to catch up with the progress of the aircraft carrier. Therefore, Qusay decided to choose a good captain from the Navy ships and transfer to aircraft carrier operations, as well as flight lessons.
After screening, Qusay set his sights on Abdul. At the same time, several personnel went to the Soviet Union to study together, and the most important thing was that they could do internships: the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier in the Black Sea, which was still in trial voyages, would be their training base.
In order to achieve this goal, Cusai spent a lot of money, which made Cusai feel that the aircraft carrier is really a bottomless pit!
However, in the long run, Iraq absolutely cannot do without an aircraft carrier formation, and this maritime exercise has fully demonstrated this point; if there were aircraft carriers in the exercise at that time, it would absolutely not have had to work so hard, and if two warplanes took off, it would have been able to drive the other side far away.
On the other hand, the events in Libya have attracted greater attention to him.
Qusay was very reluctant to see that the Super 7 fighter was in the hands of the Libyans, and it had made a name for itself.
This fighter is a joint export project between China and Iraq, and it is ready to be sold in large quantities in the third world, but now, compared with the American fighters, the results of this fighter are so poor that the prestige of the fighter is damaged.
The effect is huge. You know, if it weren't for the performance of the MiG-29 in the Gulf War, it would not have brought the Mikoyan Design Bureau to the brink of bankruptcy, in fact, even if the Su-27 was on it, the outcome would not have changed much, modern warfare is a confrontation of systems, Libya does not have a perfect system, even if he is given an F-22, he will have to make him stink.
This battle has once again turned the Libyan Air Force into a shrunken turtle, and their airborne force has not dispatched a single one, which is definitely not good news, and the Americans will bomb Libya again at any time.
At such a time, how Libya should choose is a headache for Qusay.
If those two people are obediently handed over, and then, the Americans declare, these two people did it, then this bombing of Libya will be regarded as a waste. Moreover, the Americans use this as an excuse to continue bombing Libya, I am afraid. If you don't pay it, then the result will be the same, just by virtue of the Libyan army, you will not be able to resist the blows of the Americans at all.
Unless, it was Qusay's help, but, for some reason, Gaddafi was just unwilling to accept help from the Iraqi side. Could it be that pitiful pride of Colonel Ka?
In the face of the air strikes by the Americans, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and other countries have lodged serious protests at the United Nations, and this terrorist act of the United States must be stopped immediately! And it is proposed that sanctions be imposed on the United States for such behavior. However, the United States itself has the right of veto, so these protests can only be protests.
In this world, force is fundamental!
At the same time as they protested, the second round of US air strikes officially began, and this time, they used their main forces, and their goal was to completely eliminate Gaddafi from above, and what Reagan did not do was to be done in the hands of Bush.
In October 91, the U.S. military dispatched more than 60 naval and air force planes to bomb Tripoli, Benghazi and other military facilities, and at the Azizia barracks, where the General Staff is located, Gaddafi was attacked by two laser bombs dropped by the United States, a shrapnel hit his left foot, and Gaddafi's sixth son, Saif Arab Gaddafi, was killed. ______________________
