When the angle of attack of the wing increases to a certain degree, that is, the critical angle of attack, the airflow on the upper surface of the wing separates, and the guide force decreases, and the stall will occur, and after the stall, because the aircraft will rotate along the longitudinal axis of the aircraft in the direction of the wing on the side that stalled first, it will enter the state of tailspin.

And now, the F-16 has entered a stall state due to the sharp change in airflow after flying at an altitude exceeding the ceiling, especially after the launch of the missile, which separates the airflow on the surface of the wings.

The world is spinning, Kadri's mind is still clear, and when it comes to training, everyone will artificially go into a tailspin state and then change out.

This state was very uncomfortable, Kadri clearly judged that his fighter was rotating to the right, so he pushed the control stick to the left to the end, and at the same time pedaled the rudder on the left, and soon, the fighter stopped spinning, and the tail spin was easily changed.

Then, it is to stall and flatten, close the throttle to the slow state, pull the operating lever back, put the speed brake, the height has dropped to less than 10,000 meters at this time, Kadri felt that his fighter suddenly regained its balance and leveled!

In the stall tailspin just now, the overloaded seat provided a great help to keep him from being too uncomfortable, and now, looking at the releveled plane, Kadri's heart became surging.

The words of the base commander came from the headset: "Congratulations, the MiG-25 has been shot down, return home victorious!" ”

The MiG-25 was hit by two Sidewinder missiles and was successfully shot down!

The landing gear of the inner figure was lowered, the nose of the F-16 fighter was raised, the main landing gear first touched the ground, and it ran forward smoothly for a few meters, and the landing gear in front of it fell. The parachute in the tail was released, and the fighter plane quickly stopped, and according to the command of the ground personnel, it slid to the tarmac.

When the ground crew moved the ladder to the side of the fuselage, the cockpit canopy was opened. Kadri realized that he was soaking wet.

Coming down from the ladder, unbuttoning his flight helmet and blowing the evening breeze, Kadri looked at the people standing in front of him, the commander of the base, Arslan, and the chief of staff of the military district, Mhammad.

"Report, 067 successfully shot down an enemy aircraft!" Kadri raised his right arm in salute.

"Congratulations." "You became another pilot of the 11 squadron who shot down enemy aircraft," Arslan said. ”

The elder Arslan was also born in the 11 squadron, and he had a special affection for this squadron. Now the old Arslan's body is no longer suitable for flying in the sky, and the junk food of the United States has made his body a little blessed, and he looks at the pilot in front of him for meritorious service, as if he saw himself back then.

"Glory to all our fighters." "I wouldn't have been able to be in that position without guidance from the ground," Kadri said. ”

The key to interception is to jump. The timing must be right in order to intercept accurately.

"We still have a task to do. Kadri, you have to recall the situation and find out how it got into tailspin, and we want to prevent similar problems from happening. Mhammad said.

When the domestic J-6 hit high-altitude UAVs, there was no stall, and now it happened on the F-16. This is their only means before the F-14 arrives, and it must be carefully studied to find out the cause of this stall.

"Yes." Kadri said.

There was jubilation in the Peshawar base, and the MiG-25s of the vivalist Soviets were beaten down. The Soviets' vain attempt to trample on Pakistan's airspace at high altitudes and high speeds was frustrated.

Turkmenistan airbase.

"Immediately notify the Afghan forces that the pilot who helped search for the crash may have fallen into the mountains of northwestern Pakistan, and ask them to help in the search, even if it crosses the line, to rescue the pilot." Said the commander of the base, Khosnetsov.

His eyes were fixed on the map, just a few minutes ago, one of his own MiG-25s was shot down over Peshawar, Pakistan, and when he heard the news, his first reaction was impossible, absolutely impossible!

Even the Americans could not shoot down the MiG-25 fighters flying at high altitude and high speed, how did the Pakistanis do it?

He arrived at the headquarters and ordered his electronic warfare officers to analyze it.

"Report, based on the analysis of radar signals, we draw conclusions." A subordinate said.

"How did it crash? Is it a mechanical failure? Horsnetsov asked.

"It was not a mechanical failure, but just after entering Pakistani airspace, two Pakistan Air Force fighters took off, and they used the power to jump up to an altitude of 20,000 meters."

"Impossible, how is this possible?" Hosnetsov interrupted him: "Pakistan's Jian-6 can jump to 18,000 meters at most, and our fighters are flying at an altitude of more than 20,000 meters, how can they jump up?" ”

In the Peshawar Military Region opposite, the main fighter is the Jian-6, and this kind of aircraft modified from the MiG-19 is impossible to fly up to 20,000 meters.

"It's not the J-6, we suspect that the Pakistan Air Force has been equipped with new fighters." The subordinate said: "Last year, Pakistan signed a contract with the United States to purchase 40 F-16 fighters, and we suspect that this time it is a new F-16 fighter that takes off, and its ceiling is 18,000, and if it jumps, it may rise to an altitude of 20,000 meters." ”

Bought last year, came back this year, and formed combat effectiveness? The speed of the Pakistan Air Force is too fast, right? Horsnetsov gritted his teeth, thought for a moment, and continued: "Even if it rises to that height, how did they shoot down our fighters? Their missiles are not as fast as our fighters. ”

"They're head-on." According to the analysis of the situation captured by the radar, the subordinates said: "They jumped up to 20,000 meters, less than five kilometers away from our MiG-25 fighters, and they fired two combat bombs head-on..."

In such a short period of time, radar-guided medium-range missiles have no chance to be launched, and even if they can be locked in a short period of time, medium-range missiles need to be continuously irradiated by radar, and the opponent's plane only maintained an altitude of more than 20,000 meters for a few seconds, which shows that the opponent is launching a combat bomb. Moreover, the data shows that the F-16 fighters imported by the Pakistan Air Force do not have the ability to launch medium-range Sparrow missiles at all.

Tail chases can't catch up, they are head-on launches! Due to the high-speed flight of the MiG-25, the body heated, and as a result, the opponent's combat bomb created a good chance of locking.

"Their melee projectiles, with head-on firing capabilities?" Horsnetsov asked: "The Americans exported advanced missiles to them?" ”

"I don't know, but because our MiG-25 is very hot when flying at high speed, and the temperature at an altitude of 20,000 meters is extremely low, even if it is a combat bomb that can only chase and attack, I am afraid that it can lock on our MiG-25 fighter."

"If this is really the case, then we only need to increase the flight altitude, such as 23,000 meters, and the opponent's F-16 fighter, no matter how much it jumps, it will not be possible to reach this altitude." Horsnetsov said.

Originally, their MiG-25RB flew wantonly over Pakistan, as if in a no-man's land, this feeling was really enjoyable, and now, after being beaten down, suddenly the eyes were gray, and at the same time, they had to find a new way to repeat this kind of flight.

The other side relies on F-16 to intercept, and its own side still has countermeasures.

"Yes, we can continue to increase the altitude, but this will make the stability of our laser-guided bombs worse, and that altitude happens to be the ionosphere." "Moreover, we are not sure whether our analysis is correct, and if there is another confrontation, we will be able to find the answer completely," the subordinate said. ”

It is because 20,000 meters is already the best altitude, and the MiG-25 of these invasions will not fly particularly high, otherwise the effectiveness of laser-guided bombs will deteriorate.

If there is another confrontation, then we must not lose another fighter? Horsnetsov just wanted to scold this stupid subordinate, but suddenly something came to mind.

"Yes, we found out that the Pakistan Air Force is equipped with new aircraft, Pakistan's 'good friend', India is very interested, and they should come and conduct a reconnaissance." "We need to inform India of our findings," Khosnetsov said. ”

In several Indo-Pakistani wars, for the purpose of containing the eastern countries, the Soviet Union stood firmly behind India and provided India with a large number of weapons, and now, when the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, Pakistan supported it, and Western countries were on the side of Pakistan, in order to contain Pakistan, the Soviet Union carried out a large-scale arms export to India.

Now India has the largest MiG fleet in addition to the Soviet Union, with up to 20 squadrons of MiG-21 and more than 800 aircraft, of which more than 500 are assembled in India, and the MiG-23BN is also equipped with three squadrons of attack aircraft. At the same time, in order to detect intelligence, India also has eight MiG-25R reconnaissance planes, although the MiG-25 was once a very secret fighter, but unfortunately when Captain Viktor Belenko defected to Japan in the MiG-25, the mystery of this fighter was revealed. Since secrecy could no longer be maintained, the USSR also began exporting, and Iraq and India, both received such fighters.

When it had this kind of fighter, India was also brilliant for a while, for example, it invaded the eastern countries for more than ten years, and once flew through Tibet to Xinjiang, but the eastern countries were helpless and had no ability to intercept them at that time.

At present, India's main enemy is still Pakistan, and when Pakistan obtains the advanced F-16 fighters made in the United States, India will definitely not be able to hold its breath, and using the MiG-25 to reconnoiter across the border is India's best choice.

As long as the news is communicated to India through diplomatic channels, the Indians know what to do, and continuing to look at the map, Horsnetsov nodded all over the place. (To be continued......)
