Chapter 1102: The Myth of David's Eagle Shattered
readx;
Compared with the previous generation of Monster Snake 3, the biggest change in Monster Snake 4 is the aerodynamic layout, in order to surpass the R-73 missile, Monster Snake 4 also chose a canard layout with complex aerodynamic control. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info After the use of various advanced means, although without the use of thrust vectoring technology, this missile reached a maneuvering capability of more than 50g. (Although Raphael claims to have reached an overload of 70G, given the boasting that Israelis are accustomed to, around 50G should be the normal figure.) )
Moreover, its seeker uses a refrigerated indium antimonide seeker scanned by a 4-element eccentric optical machine, with a powerful reprogrammable high-speed digital processor, its target recognition and anti-decoy jamming capabilities are better than the Monster Snake 3 missile, before the new generation of infrared imaging system missiles were put into service, the infrared seeker of the Monster Snake 4 is quite powerful.
The early situation of chasing the sun will definitely not occur again, and even the infrared decoy released by the other party will definitely not deceive this seeker.
That is, as long as it is aimed, then, there is only one result: shot down!
However, they did not know that Iraq's R-73 missiles had also been upgraded, and the off-axis launch capability reached plus or minus 60 degrees, which was the same as theirs. Moreover, the advantage of the Iraqis is that they also have helmet sights.
And Israel's Strange Snake 4 missile, although it has been developed, but, the supporting helmet sight has not yet been developed, because, after Israel has studied the future situation, it is believed that the helmet sight is a development direction, however, the Israelis put forward a new opinion, that the helmet sight, should also integrate a part of the display function, which is undoubtedly the future development direction, however, they have not yet achieved technical success. Therefore, now this missile can only provide initial launch data using fire control radars. There is also no post-launch lock-on ability that later generations had.
Ramons and Bill flew forward at a rapid pace in their own planes.
Three Mirage 4000 fighters also came up to meet them, and in the narrow airspace over Gaza, the two sides came within visual range.
On this day, all the Palestinians in Gaza stopped what they were doing, looked up at the sky and shed their own tears.
For decades, they endured the wreak of Israeli planes overhead, and today, finally, they can raise their eyebrows, the Arab Air Force, in driving away the invaders above their heads.
They are also very worried, and the idea that the Israeli air force is so powerful that it is irresistible in several Middle East wars has always been in their minds.
At the beginning, Anders was still a little impatient, but the moment the missile was launched, he completely calmed down, and in air combat, it is very important to keep a clear head.
An R-73 missile mounted under the wing has been activated, energized, and the gyroscope has begun to turn, ready to fire at any time.
Report|
At this time, the altitude of the Mirage 4000 is five thousand meters, and the altitude of the F-15 is four thousand meters.
The AWACS aircraft behind it, constantly transmitting information, was the first head-on confrontation between the air forces of the two sides in several years.
When encountering large off-axis combat missiles, the traditional skills of close-range grappling are no longer important, and there is no need to go around the tail of the opponent, what the pilot needs to do is to aim the nose of the aircraft at the opponent and shoot his own missiles within the off-axis launch angle of his missile!
Anders quickly locked onto a plane in front of him with his helmet-mounted sights, and then, a flash of fire came out from under the wing, and an R-73 missile flew out.
After flying out, Anders's next move was to turn on the afterburner and let the fighter climb quickly.
And the two F-15 fighters, the airborne radar is constantly intercepting each other's data, ready to process it through the B data bus, and then provide the initial launch data to the missile, and the seeker of their missile also sees the plane in the distance, and then, locks on the target and launches the missile!
When the two sides were fifteen kilometers apart, the Mirage 4000 fired the missiles first, followed by the F-15.
It was a head-on attack in a close-range air battle, with two missiles fired at the Mirage 4000 group and three missiles flying towards the F-15 fighters.
"Attention, the other side launched a missile, immediately get rid of it." The sound of an AWACS aircraft came from the headphones.
Hearing the sound inside the headphones, Anders knew it was time to test them.
According to their tactics, it is best to fight at medium range, if the enemy is not killed in the middle range air battle, then turn around and return to the territory of the Sinai Peninsula, so that the Israelis cannot cross the border to attack, and they can fire medium range bombs again on the Sinai Peninsula to kill the other side.
Using the advantage of their own active medium-range bombs to avoid close-range combat with the opponent is the best tactic, but their mission this time is to defend the sky in Gaza, and they must not let Jewish warplanes run rampant over Gaza!
Israel's proudest thing is their air force, last time because of a surprise attack, destroyed the capabilities of their air force, they are not very convinced, and this time, in a regular battle, completely hit the self-confidence of the Israeli air force!
The missiles launched by each side are flying towards each other, and at the same time, they are also trying to get rid of the missiles flying from each other, because it is three against two, so there is a Mirage 4000 that is lucky that no missiles are flying towards him.
The Mirage 4000 is trying to climb upwards, and compared with the maneuverability of short-range missiles, it is basically looking for death, however, there is another advantage, that is, compared to power!
The missiles use solid rocket engines, and in general, the engines will burn out completely in a matter of seconds, and the rest is to fly unpowered by inertia.
Although the Snake-4 uses a two-stage rocket engine, its burning time is only 5 to 7 seconds.
And after the Mirage 4000 first launched the missile, it immediately turned on the afterburner to climb, and the initial flight altitude of the F-15 was not as high as that of the Mirage 4000, which led to a result: after the Monster Snake missile was launched, it had to fly upwards! If you want to fly upwards, you have to consume precious speed!
Moreover, since the Mirage 4000 is still climbing upwards, then, if the Snake Missile wants to hit the opponent, it will have to climb upwards!
The Monster Snake-4 missile, which adopts a complex canard aerodynamic layout, has a greater drag because the diameter of the bullet is thicker than the original Monster Snake-3, and it has reached a larger range by relying on a new engine, and now, it has to face a reality: it has to fly into the sky!
The twin-engine heavy air supremacy fighter has such an advantage: it can climb upwards effortlessly, and the Mirage 4000 has a climb rate of more than 300 meters per second, and it keeps climbing upward, and in the 20 seconds of the arrival of the missile, it has climbed more than 6,000 meters into the sky and entered an altitude of 12,000 meters.
Although the Snake-4 missile was designed to be used at an altitude of 20,000 meters, now, in the process of climbing, it has consumed valuable energy, due to the decrease in speed, resulting in a great reduction in the control torque of the rudder surface, and the maneuverability has been far from reaching the overload of more than 40g when it was designed.
The data of the AWACS aircraft kept coming, and Anders knew that the other party was constantly approaching his distance, and when he was close to 500 meters, he pulled the rod and pedaled the rudder, and while turning to the right, he dived downward.
The seeker of the 9 Monster Snake-4 kept up with Anders's fighter, but its rudder effect could not keep up with Anders's movements, and the seeker could only watch the target disappear into its field of view, and could no longer find the target.
Monster Snake-4 missed the target, and moreover, it was missed by the other party in such a despicable way.
If the two sides were to get closer, for example, to launch missiles at a distance of up to five kilometers, then Anders's action would be completely meaningless, but after the Iraqi fighters had already fired medium-range missiles to shoot down two of their planes and preemptively launched short-range missiles, if they did not launch short-range missiles in time, then they could only be beaten all the time and could not fight back.
Even the MiG-21, when equipped with high-performance combat missiles, it is very scary to engage in close-range air combat with it, and the new air-to-air missiles will make close-range combat very dangerous.
This is also the situation that most of the fighters after that are equipped with medium-range missiles and only carry two close-range bombs for combat, because close-range combat is an act they try to avoid, and it is better to launch medium-range bombs from a distance.
At this time, the two sides had not yet engaged in a dazzling aerial dogfight, but the results of the battle had already come out.
Of the two remaining F-15s, one was shot down and the other was damaged, while the Iraqi side managed to dodge their missiles.
It's not that Ramons and Bill aren't good enough, it's that they can't beat each other with two hands, Ramos was attacked by two missiles, he managed to evade one missile, and the other hit his engine, but, with his excellent body, he barely managed to operate his plane and flew away from Gaza.
Bill, on the other hand, was very unlucky, he didn't dodge the missile, which exploded so accurately near his cockpit that he didn't even have a chance to parachute.
The logic part of the R-73 missile, which allows it to hit important parts of the target, such as the engine, such as the cockpit.
The Iraqi Air Force did a very good job, and in the confrontation between the two sides under the command of AWACS aircraft, the two sides formed four planes, shot down four of the other side, damaged one, and only one of their own was wounded.
The myth of the Eagle of David has finally been shattered!
After taking out four Israeli fighter jets, they began to deal with several invading Israeli helicopter gunships.
