Chapter 603: Hunting Fans Find Their Target
readx;
MiG-25, at the beginning of the design, is to deal with the United States YF-12 program, high-altitude and high-speed Xing energy-based fighters, if this kind of fighter, can be integrated into Iraq's C3I system, under the command of the Iraqi equipment of the hunting machine, the effect will be multiplied, if it can have ultra-long-range air-to-air missiles, it can be regarded as a big killer, mainly used to attack the opponent's pre-jing, electronic warfare aircraft and other high-value targets.

Although Iraq is constantly equipping itself with new warplanes, it is also important to renovate existing equipment and tap its potential.
Among Iraq's existing arsenals, among the Soviet-style aircraft, the most distinctive is the MiG-25, so the MiG-25 is put in the first place in the work of integrating into the data link.
The squadron leader of the 17th Fighter Squadron, Kadham, sat in the cockpit of his MiG-25 fighter, making various preparations before takeoff, although the Mirage 4000 was already equipped with troops and could fly on the MiG-25, and he was also the best among the Iraqi pilots.
After the four MiG-25 fighters of his squadron were all ready to go and completed a series of tasks in an orderly manner, the MiG-25s of the H-3 air base flew into the sky one after another.
Then, they began to fly in two directions, Kadham and his wingman, flying south, preparing to enter the skies over the Persian Gulf, and Kazai and his wingman, flying east, to the sky over Bakhtaran, where they needed to test the effect of their own datalink at the maximum distance of the pre-jing. ≦≧
At the same time, the command center of the Ministry of Defense in Baghdad is also carefully monitoring the progress of the experiment. From the data sent back by the pre-jing machine, you can see the two flight formations.
"Eye of the sky. Request directions. Kadham called over the radio.
"Bearing, 3-1-2, distance two hundred." The command and control personnel of the pre-jing aircraft transmitted the data to the MiG-25 aircraft synchronously through the Link4A data link.
Kadham glanced out of the cockpit, and by this time, he had flown over the Persian Gulf, with the azure waters and busy ships below. Now, the data link at high altitude of the experiment is delivered.
"Request to rise to an altitude of 20,000 meters." Kadham said.
"Yes."
The auxiliary fuel tank in the abdomen began to be thrown into the Persian Gulf by Kadham in style, and the MiG-25 needed to reduce its weight and resistance if it wanted to climb quickly. ≦≧
Kadham turned on the afterburner and pulled the cāo lever in his hand, and the MiG-25 raised its head and began to climb upwards.
Huge rectangular air intakes. Constantly inhaling fresh air, the R-15B-300 engine burst out with a thrust of more than 100,000 N, driving the stainless steel body of the MiG-25 upward, which was a spectacular moment.
………
A special convoy passed through the desert of Anbar province in western Iraq and entered the territory of Jordan.
They were driving a very ordinary off-road jeep that is common in the Middle East, with a special instrument wrapped in tarpaulin at the back of the car, and the leader of this team was Haidar.
This is a very important mission. After Zia received the order, he immediately handed over the task to Haidar, and after Haidar got this task, he decided to go out in person, because it was not safe to hand over this matter to others.
It is possible that the earthquake that occurred in the territory of the Sè column was also an underground nuclear test, then, that is. ≦≧ and Iraq, they have crossed the nuclear threshold together!
In this case, their advantage in the sè column will no longer be obvious, so the inspection carried out in Jordan and the border with the sè column will be very important. They had to determine whether they had actually conducted an underground nuclear test!
This is also an advantage for Iraq, thanks to its good relations with King Hussein. Iraqi teams carrying out special missions could enter Jordanian territory at any time to investigate the Israelis, but it was impossible for the Israelis to send personnel to the Bakhtalam area to investigate. In addition, the area where the earthquake occurred has abundant underground water sources, and if a nuclear test had been carried out in the case of a nuclear test, the underground water source would have been contaminated. Jordanian compatriots who drink polluted water will be harmed, and I am afraid that they have done so deliberately.
Therefore, when King Hussein learned of this, he was very anxious to wait for this special team to come, and secretly sent an army to blockade the province of Tafila, which was close to the earthquake in Israel, and at the same time, made the local population not drink the groundwater, and transported it by vehicles from other areas.
Abdullah II bin Hussein, the eldest son of the current King Hussein, who was born on January 30, 1962 in Amman, Jordan's capital, is waiting at the border.
At the height of his life, he studied military and international politics at the Islamic Academy in Amman, the St. Hurst Military Academy in England, the University of Oxford, Georgetown University in the United States, the British Infantry School, and the British Command and Staff College. ≦≧ served in the Jordanian army for a long time after 1981 and is now the commander of a Jordanian special forces.
In the distance, the arrival of that convoy was seen.
"Very welcome, our Iraqi friends." Abdullah II said.
"Hello, Your Royal Highness, I am Dr. Haidar from Iraq, we are on a secret mission this time, and the news must not be leaked." Haidar said.
"Don't worry, we'll keep you safe." "We are very curious to know if this earthquake will really pollute our groundwater sources," Abdullah II said. ”
"The results will come out soon, let's go to the Jebgan River area in Tafila first." "We also really want to know what the hell the hell is going on with the people of Sè Lie this time," Heidar said. ”
………
"We have crossed the Indian peninsula. ≦≧" said Major Josephvida in the aft compartment: "Now, a few hundred kilometers from our target, we need to go west into the skies over Turkey, where tanker aircraft are waiting for us, after completing the reconnaissance mission. ”
When flying at 3 times the speed of sound, the SR-71 required a huge turning radius, as it does now. After passing the Indian peninsula, it begins to turn north before it can fly into the Persian Gulf, and after Bakhtalam's reconnaissance, it needs to turn west immediately, otherwise it will fly through Turkey and into the Mediterranean.
After flying over the Indian Peninsula just now. They have not been exposed to radar at all, which shows how negligent India's air defense is.
This gave the two more confidence in how strong can Iraq's air defense be? Moreover, they did not intend to fly over the territory controlled by Iraq at all, they entered the airspace in the east of Iran, and then, flying over Bakhtalam, which is not under the control of Iraq. This flight, there will be no great danger.
Edyielding Major Cāo as Cāo as a pole, the Blue Bird began to deflect to the north, due to the thin air in the sky, resulting in a very low aerodynamic efficiency of the rudder surface, and the speed of Mach 2.5 was too fast, following the increase in speed, it was the increase in the turning radius caused by inertia.
And. Scouting was about to begin, Major Edyielding slowly increased the throttle, and the Blue Jays were still accelerating.
If in peacetime, they choose this route, there will be no problems, now the eastern part of Iran is not the control zone of Tehran, and the farthest radar in Iraq will not shine shè to them, it's just that the pre-jing plane in the Persian Gulf. Right on the edge of what it can search.
The aircraft is flying in the air at 8,000 meters, the radar in the front of the nose and the antenna in the bulging bag behind are rotating, after serving in the Iraqi Air Force, the intensity of the use of the aircraft is very high, and at the same time, the British technicians are constantly improving, and now the aircraft is being prepared. Finally, all kinds of problems have been overcome, and Xing Neng's requirements can be fully satisfied, and the Iraqi side. It is already ready to install two other sets of components on the Yun-10 aircraft to form a scale of four pre-jing aircraft to meet the task of 24-hour uninterrupted patrol.
The MiG-25 fighter has climbed to an altitude of 20,000 meters at this time, which is already the ceiling of most fighters, but for the MiG-25, this is very easy to achieve.
After leveling the plane, Kadham was about to report to Tianyan that he had arrived at the predetermined airspace, and the next round of experiments was about to begin, when he heard the order of the cāo personnel on the pre-jing plane: "War Eagle, continue to climb high, 25,000 meters in the air, there is an unknown target flying, the opponent is very fast, immediately prepare to intercept." ”
25,000 meters in the air with an unidentified target? What other aircraft, besides the MiG-25, will be able to climb to that height? Kadham didn't have a chance to think about this, he immediately turned on the afterburner again and continued to climb, 25,000 meters, and the MiG-25 was still enough!
The pre-jing machine of the hunt is to find the target.
Just as they were about to carry out the next round of experiments, the radar crew on Station 3 suddenly discovered the light spot on the screen, with a height of 25,000 and a speed of 1,000! What kind of flying object is that?
Now, through the C3I system, when the data is quickly transmitted back to the command center, General Adnan, the Minister of Defense, who is waiting for the results of this experiment, immediately ordered an interception.
At this height, Iraq was only able to reach the MiG-25, and now, even more fortunately, the Iraqi MiG-25 is in this airspace!
Although Iraq has not yet deployed its own radar on the ground, the pre-aircraft in the sky is even better than the radar station on the ground.
Under the command of the Hunter Pre-Jing aircraft, Kadham and his wingman, two MiG-25s, began to climb to an altitude of 25,000 meters to the stratosphere to block UFOs, which was the first time in the history of the MiG-25 interceptor!
When the MiG-25 was designed, it was a high-altitude high-speed interceptor, but this high-altitude is for high speed, because the higher the altitude, the thinner the air, the smaller the resistance, and the greater the speed that can be reached.
The ultimate goal of the MiG-25 is to quickly reach the theater of operations and intercept the opponent's bombers and other important targets, which is similar to the powerful Immortal Bird missile that needs to climb to an altitude of 30,000 meters and sail at a speed of Mach 5 during the cruise phase.
At the same time, this emergency was also reported to Qusay. (To be continued)
