Chapter 70: Shoot down

Air combat is the most tragic, life and death, only in a dozen seconds, or even a few seconds.

The two P-23T missiles are flying rapidly, and they have been receiving instructions from the carrier aircraft behind them, correcting their flight attitude at any time. Originally, it was close to five kilometers and the infrared seeker could be activated, but because the panda made a fierce side roll, it was originally aimed at the tail of the other party, but now it has become the side, resulting in the infrared seeker being somewhat unable to lock.

However, as the Panda rolled and flew horizontally, the red-hot tail fumes were once again exposed to the P-23T's field of vision.

The infrared seeker obtains guidance information by detecting the infrared radiation of the target engine nozzle, tail flame and skin aerodynamic heating. In addition to the infrared radiation intensity and radiation spectrum of the target, the range is also related to the sensitivity of the seeker and the meteorological conditions of the external environment. The engine is a source of high-temperature radiation, so the engine tailpipe is the favorite of the infrared seeker, and the missile at this time does not have the omnidirectional attack capability and can only attack the rear half.

The indium antimonide seeker, cooled by liquid nitrogen, finally found the target set in advance, and the computer in the missile made an analysis, took over the control of the carrier aircraft, and the infrared seeker guided the missile.

Fall back! Arslan didn't have time to see how the battle would turn out, and the most important thing for him now was to escape.

Theoretically speaking, when the distance from the panda is close to 30 kilometers, as long as the panda is discovered, it is almost impossible to escape, and now, the distance from the panda is only ten kilometers, and there are already two pandas that have pounced on him.

Hearing the shrill scream in the headphones disappear, Lanawardad was not reassured, he kept turning in the huge bubble cockpit, looking in all directions.

Suddenly, his pupils dilated: "Four o'clock, two missiles!" ”

"Release the Flarefire!" Ahami shouted, and then began to prepare for a violent maneuver.

"Suddenly, suddenly, suddenly." From the side of the panda, countless fireballs flew up, and from a distance, it looked like a fireworks. This is an incendiary bomb that can release a lot of heat in a short period of time, which is used to confuse the vision of infrared missiles and make wrong choices.

Sure enough, one of the missiles noticed that there was a heat source in front of it that was hotter than the target it had just locked, and after a little hesitation, it changed its target and flew towards this new heat source.

Seeing a missile flying from the side and rear, changing direction, the tight strings of Lanawad have not yet been loosened, and there is another missile, which is flying.

"Maneuver to get out." Ahami shouted.

Compared with the mobile surname, the fighter will never be able to compare with the missile, but the fighter is far stronger than the missile, that is, the pilot in the fighter is thoughtful!

Ahami knows that it is impossible to get rid of the missile, then only at the moment of the arrival of the missile, pull the plane up, climb, the closer the missile, the smaller the field of view of the infrared seeker, as long as it flies past the field of view of the seeker, the infrared bomb will miss the target, fly past the fighter and lose the target.

However, the choice of this timing is the most difficult.

Ranawad in the rear cabin nervously counted: "Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four..."

Ahami quickly manually tuned the wing to the maximum sweep angle, turned on the afterburner, and pulled the panda up hard.

Suddenly, the panda flew straight into the sky like a vigorous eagle.

Two TF30-P-412 engines, each with a thrust of 93 kN, allow the Panda to climb vertically without much difficulty.

Suddenly, a flashing red light on the dashboard frightened Ahami: the left engine was faulty, and the hydraulic oil circuit was depressing.

The two engines of the Panda were far apart, which caused a terrible yaw, the left engine lost power, and the right engine worked alone at maximum thrust, causing the nose to begin to deviate to the left.

It is very tragic, all this stems from the shortage of parts, before takeoff, an important valve in the hydraulic line of the engine failed, and after simple repairs on the ground crew, they carried out combat duty, and as a result, in the violent maneuver just now, the failure reappeared, putting Ahami and Ranawardad in a desperate situation.

If you look at it from a distance, you can see that the panda has drawn a beautiful arc in the sky, and it still has not left the attack range of the missile!

"Boom!" The missile, which was chasing from behind, accurately hit the right engine of the Panda.

As soon as the left hair lost power, the right hair was hit again, and both of the panda's hearts stopped beating. Then, a fire in the back ignited the remaining fuel in the plane.

Before it could eject, the panda turned into a fireball in the sky.

Attaboy! Tasker, who was in charge of guiding him on the ground, said in his heart that this time, he also violated the military order and provided guidance to Arslan, I don't know what punishment he will receive, and now he sees Arslan fight a panda, even if he is punished, it is worth it.

In the sky, Arslan has no chance to see the fireball of the panda in the sky at this moment, and under the attack of the two vengeful pandas, the most important thing is that he can escape back.

Abbas? The two Pandas piloted by Major Hakin and Captain Akbari had already completed their U-turn and steering, preparing to take down the MiGs that had attacked them from the rear.

Fleeing at low altitude? Arslan did not choose this method and fled from a low altitude, which was based on what the Soviet instructor said, because the radar lacks the ability to look down and shoot downward, because the clutter on the ground will make the radar screen a snowflake, so the other party will not be able to detect himself at all, let alone lock and launch missiles. However, having studied the experience of the blood of countless compatriots, Arslan knew that what the instructor said was not right at all.

Lack of the ability to look down and shoot down, that is the Soviet aircraft, due to the backwardness of radar technology, can not work effectively at all, however, for the United States, which has developed electronic technology, this shortcoming has long been overcome, AWG-9 radar can be used as a long-range and medium-range pulse Doppler detector, can identify and track low-flying targets from the ground or sea clutter interference background; or as a common pulse radar at long and ultra-short range.

The Doppler principle refers to the change of wavelength due to relative motion, the pulse refers to the fact that the radar transmitted signal is transmitted at intervals, and the pulse Doppler radar refers to the difference between the radial velocity of the target and the jammer relative to the radar, and the target is moving, while the jammer (mainly referring to the ground object) is not moving, so the echo signal also has different Doppler frequencies. The Doppler frequency spectral line of the target can be selected by the method of frequency domain filtering, and the spectral line of the interference clutter can be filtered out, so that the radar can separate and detect the target signal from the strong clutter.

Flying at low altitudes can't escape the eyes of the panda at all, and the plane flying at low altitude, due to air resistance, the speed is much lower. At low altitudes, the MiG-23 can fly more than Mach 1 at most, while at high altitudes, the MiG-23 can fly more than Mach 2.

If you want to run for your life, the faster the better.

Arslan did not hesitate to pull the rod and fly from the medium altitude to the high altitude.
