Chapter 127: Annihilation Six Attack
"Twelve o'clock, distance fifteen, speed six hundred." The radar guide's voice was calm and calm, directing his two Jian-6s.
When four bright spots suddenly appeared on the radar screen, everyone knew that the battle was about to begin, and almost at the same time, those four bright spots split into two directions.
There are only two Jian-6s on their side, and the radar guides can only guide them to intercept the two nearest fighters, and the distance between the two sides is only 15 kilometers.
At this distance, pilots with good eyesight can already visually find targets, and in Eastern countries, pilots in golden helmets even have a precedent for visually finding targets at a distance of 27 km.
The direction of twelve o'clock is directly ahead, and this is also the easiest way to visually detect the position of enemy aircraft, especially for the J-6 without radar, it is even more advantageous.
"Let him turn a little left." Mhammad spoke in the back: "Guide to the back of the enemy aircraft." ”
Hearing Mhammad's words, the radar guide first shook his head, and later understood what Mhammad meant, this is a guerrilla fight in the air!
In this era, the performance of missiles is not very advanced, the success of head-on attacks and side attacks is not high, or tail pursuit attacks occupy a dominant position, and now the two sides are at an angle of 90 degrees, and the nose of their own side is facing the fuselage of the other side, and if they turn left slightly, they can go around the back of the other side.
Now your advantage is that the opponent has not yet discovered your own side, and you go around behind the opponent, which is a typical sneak attack tactic.
"Understood." The voice of the ground guide was heard, and although Hussein had already seen the two bright spots above the clouds, he still followed the guide's order and turned slightly to the left.
At the same time, Hussein turned on the afterburner, and the tail of the J-6 spewed blazing flames. Pushing the fighter plane to continue to accelerate, accelerate.
Relying on an excellent thrust-to-weight ratio, the nose of the J-6 pierced the sky, broke through the sound barrier, entered supersonic flight, and soon went around the back of the opponent.
Hussein gently pushed the lever to the right. The two bright spots above the clouds reappeared in his sight.
Aim, attack!
"Prepare to attack, Sidewinder missiles." Hussein said, flipping the switch on his weapon.
The old J-6 only has a cannon, and when it entered Pakistan, it was equipped with Western Sidewinder missiles, which suddenly increased the power of this kind of fighter.
On one side of the weapon pylon, the AIM-9P's lead sulfide photosensitive element seeker began to cool. Like the Rattlesnake's keen senses, it began to observe the infrared heat sources around it, and soon, it aimed at the red-hot engine tail nozzle in front.
The distance continued to approach, and Hussein piloted the fighter plane, flying smoothly, preparing for the launch of the AIM-9P missile, finally. A red light on the dashboard began to flash at the same time. A long, familiar chime came from the headphones.
"The target has been locked, and the attack is requested." Hussein said over the radio.
"You can attack." Mhammad was calm, looking forward to Pakistan's Air Warriors' first victory, though he had not yet reported it to his superiors.
Hussein pressed the button, and under the wings, the tail of the Sidewinder missile suddenly erupted with a hot air current. The solid rocket engine began to ignite, pushing the missile out of the pylon, faster and faster.
At the same time, wingman Bashar followed behind Hussein, ready to go into battle at any moment.
The two Su-24 fighters in front of them are still flying smoothly. They have already entered the bombing route, and in a minute, they will drop bombs to attack, and at this point, it must fly smoothly.
Although the Su-24 is a heavy fighter, its cockpit is still very narrow, and the two people sitting side by side can only see the front and side, and the field of vision behind is zero, all of which are blocked.
In contrast, the F-16 at this time already adopted a wide bubble cockpit, and the pilot seemed to be riding on a fighter plane, with good visibility.
They didn't know that there were already missiles flying behind them that could kill them.
The AIM-9P missile continued to fly smoothly, it had identified the target in front, the rocket engine quickly completed the burning, pushing the missile to the maximum speed of Mach 2.5, and the flight behind it will be all inertial flight.
The lead sulfide photosensitive seeker in front of it was constantly aimed at the hot engine port, but it felt another heat source constantly attracting it.
In particular, when it felt that it was getting hotter and hotter, its eyes began to blur, and it was a little difficult to distinguish the target, and it did not know that its cooling device was malfunctioning.
At this time, the AIM-9P missile did not have the high-pressure nitrogen cylinder of the AIM-9L missile to cool the seeker, and the cooling device was easy to overheat, and when its vision gradually blurred, it suddenly found a new heat source, so it unceremoniously changed direction and flew upward.
Seeing that the missile he launched was actually halfway through the flight, it actually pulled up and ran to chase the sun, Hussein was suddenly very helpless.
"The missile lost its target, and the second one was launched." Hussein's J-6 fighter had a total of two AIM-9P missiles on board, and now, one flew off, and the second one was ready, and without hesitation, he pressed the button, and the missile flew out of the wing pylon.
I can't beat you if I don't believe it!
"Countdown to the bombing." In the cockpit of the Su-24, Josevsky said.
Those weapons are stored in solid cement fortifications, so if you want to blow up those weapons, the power of using 500 kg of laser-guided bombs is not enough, and their two fighters are carrying 1,000 kg of bombs, which are free-fall bombs, and the route before bombing is very important, which directly determines the accuracy of this bomb.
Now, with a ten-second countdown, it's time to drop the bomb, and the weapon operator on the other side is already counting down.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."Suddenly, Josefsky saw a bright spot and flew quickly to the front of his own plane.
What is that? Joseph, who had good eyesight, instantly saw clearly, it was a missile, a missile flying from behind his fuselage!
Fighters of the Pakistan Air Force!
"Quick, drop the bomb!" Josephsky couldn't wait for the remaining seconds, and he was actually followed by the fighter plane of the Pakistan Air Force, and he also fired missiles at himself! If it hadn't been for that missile. He himself is about to become the first Soviet pilot to be shot down in Pakistani airspace!
With 1000 kg of bombs on board, the Su-24 was so heavy that it simply could not cope with air combat.
Without hesitation, the weapon operator pressed the throw button, and suddenly, the fuselage lightened.
Josevsky turned on the afterburner and at the same time adjusted the swept wing to 70 degrees. You have to accelerate first to have enough energy for air combat.
Hussein in the back looked helpless, the second missile did not chase the sun, but when it was about to approach the opponent's fighter, it slid from one side and missed, it must be a miscalculation of the circuit in the missile guidance system, and the angle of attack was off!
It was too late for the wingman behind him to attack, because the Soviets were clearly alarmed. Dropped the bomb and climbed up quickly.
If the opponent is allowed to jump into the air, the old J-6 will not be able to confront the other party at all due to the problem of the airframe design, and there will be no chance, so it must be solved quickly!
Hussein quickly adjusted his weapon to the cannon, and when he was just in the air, Hussein began to heat up the Jian-6's 7-type sight. Now ready to use, pull the throttle stick back with your left hand all the way down.
Although the engine is lagging behind. But the J-6 is even lighter, and with Hussein's operation, the J-6 is like a nimble swift, struggling to climb high.
The distance between the two sides is approaching rapidly.
During the climb, Hussein was also methodically preparing for a cannon attack, turning the wingspan knob on the sight. Select the wingspan scale, so that you can measure the distance based on the opponent's wingspan, and then pull the ring selector lever to the active ring position, and press the ring stabilization button, so that the ring can closely follow the motion state of the machine.
Then. Hussein rotated the ranging handle, enlarged the aura, estimated the elevation angle and advance angle, placed the aural above the target, released the ring stabilization button, reduced the aura, the aura moved backwards and downwards, and the central light point slowly fell on the target.
The old cannon attack is so complex that only after rigorous training can you make so many moves in just two seconds, and you can't go wrong.
Then, Hussein only needs to align the center of the light point and press it on the center or vital position of the target, correct the firing angle, and then press the button to fire.
A 30-mm cannon that can easily tear the aircraft in front of it.
The two Su-24s opened the distance, and one of the Su-24 pilots saw that his long plane was bitten by two J-6s, and couldn't help shouting on the radio: "It's J-6!" 003, it's climbing faster than you! It's about to launch a cannon attack on you! ”
The fact that two advanced Soviet Su-24 fighters were bitten by the backward imitation of the MiG-19 J-6 is simply ironic.
Compared with climbing, the heavy Su-24 is not comparable to the J-6, then it is simply better than diving!
Josevsky jerked forward the lever, and the Su-24, which had just rushed into the sky, lowered its nose and began to dive downward.
At this moment, Hussein had already begun to use the sight activity halo to lasso the Su-24, but the Su-24 turned from climbing to diving, this kind of large overload maneuver, so that the J-6's activity aura could not keep up, and the action just now was all in vain, and if you can't aim, you can't shoot.
The opponent will soon disappear from Hussein's eyes, and even if Hussein follows the same dive, the opponent has accumulated enough speed because of the dive to perform various maneuvers.
Hussein's hand skillfully flicked the switch, replacing the active aura with a fixed one. Compared to the complicated steps of the active aura, it is much easier to fix the aura, as long as you estimate the amount of advance yourself, you can shoot. However, this way of shooting is obviously more difficult to hit the target.
Hussein didn't have time to think about it, and all he was left with was a 0.5 second shooting window, and he corrected the lead and then pressed the red button on the lever.
"Tom tom." As the cannon spat out tongues of fire, the Jian-6 fighters also swayed, and one by one 30 mm caliber shells flew over. (To be continued......)
