As soon as Mahmoud looked up, he saw the missiles flying in the distance, and he was shocked, and immediately turned on the afterburner, climbed vertically upward, and at the same time, let the radar in the rear compartment act as an officer, and began to release infrared jamming bombs.

Mahmoud made a fatal mistake, he should not have turned on the afterburner, which would have caused the infrared signature to increase significantly, and he used a vertical climb maneuver, so that his tail was fully exposed to the incoming missile.

Because Mahmoud still used the way to get rid of the Soviet air-to-air missile, the solid engine of the Soviet missile was not up to par, as long as he climbed vertically upward, the kinetic energy of the incoming missile would be quickly lost, and he only needed to do a few maneuvers up and down, and he could consume the kinetic energy of the missile.

It's just that he didn't succeed.

Just as he was just beginning to climb, the missiles were already catching up.

The Matra 530 medium-range air-to-air missile uses an X-band radar proximity fuse, which can be detonated directly or through an ignition delay device when the missile is 2 to 20 m away from the target. The continuous rod warhead used in the infrared type missile has a total weight of 30kg, a theoretical dispersion radius of 10.5m, and the actual maximum diameter of the continuous rod when it is deployed.

The missile, which was exactly drilled headlong into one of the engines of the F-14, exploded, with some delay.

Mahmoud felt the plane tremble, and then, many red lights on the dashboard began to alarm, the left engine failed, and the hydraulic fluid began to leak, and the situation was critical.

The radar officer in the rear compartment immediately nervously turned on the fire extinguishing switch, trying to turn off the engine of the left engine and extinguish the fire.

The plane began to yaw.

Mahmoud is trying to ride the plane in the hope that he can drive the tomcat back, even if he can't fly into the sky again, as an organ donation, which is good.

Mirage F1, in today's air battle, created a miracle, actually achieved a record of shooting down one and wounding two, however, the good luck of the Mirage F1 came to an abrupt end.

Ziaz wouldn't make the same mistake, rubbing shoulders with the opposing fighter jet and slamming it down.

After the two sides crossed, they both began to pull the rod and kick the rudder, turn around, and whoever completes the rotation first will have the advantage in the next fight.

However, Ziaz will not give the other side a chance.

The Tomcat's wing became a minimum sweep angle, and at the same time, the right wing tilted downward, and then, the rudder moved to the right, and the huge fighter made a beautiful turn in the air.

At this time, the two Phantom F1s have just turned ninety degrees, and this is the gap!

Ziaz's thumb pressed the launch button on the boom without hesitation.

A Sidewinder missile, plumping with smoke, pounced on one of the Mirage F1s.

The cabin of the Phantom F1 is still the old-fashioned hinged canopy that opens backwards and upwards, and the front windshield is a traditional three-piece structure. As a light fighter design, and the fuselage structure inherited from the Mirage 3, the cockpit of the Mirage F1 is not spacious and relatively narrow. Compared with the American fighter sitting in the bubble cockpit, it is a little backward, and the cockpit vision also has certain problems, and its forward vision is not a big problem, which is okay. However, the field of view from the side and rear is relatively narrow, especially when the pilot is still making a big overload turn, and he has no time to take care of the situation in the rear.

Amy didn't know that a missile flew behind his side, he was pressed above the seat by the high g force, and he was still doing a turning motion, and after turning back, he went around the back of the other party and launched the magic air-to-air missile under the wing. Everything, just like in the usual training, just hit the Iranian Tomcat a few times, and his heart ignited with confidence.

He didn't notice it, but Hamad, the long plane, saw it, and he was surprised to see a missile flying towards the wingman, and immediately shouted on the radio: "Attention, at nine o'clock, the missile is coming!" ”

Then, in his field of vision, it was a fireball.

It was too close, and before Amy could react, she was hit by a Sidewinder missile, which ignited the fuel and caused the volley to explode.

Amy didn't even get a chance to skydive.

The Sidewinder missile is a short-range air-to-air missile made in the United States, which is equipped with a large number of pro-American air forces, and a large number of Sidewinder missiles were also purchased during the era of the Pavilie dynasty in Iran.

The normal air superiority mount of the F-14 is to mount four long-range Immortal Bird missiles under the belly, and two Sparrow medium-range air-to-air missiles and two short-range Sidewinder missiles under the wings.

After using the Sidewinder to shoot down an Iraqi Phantom, Ziaz immediately switched on another missile and prepared to fight the remaining Phantom.

In close-quarters combat, the Tomcat's advantage is unmatched.

Hamad already knows that the other side is hovering faster than his own, so it is stupid to hover horizontally with the other side, and at the same time, because the other side is two engines, the climb ability is not comparable to his own, then, his only advantage is to enter a low altitude, and maybe there is a possibility of shooting down the other side.

Unlike the Mirage 3, which uses delta wings and focuses on high altitude and high speed, the Mirage F1 adopts a normal aerodynamic layout, and the agility of the medium and low altitudes is greatly strengthened, and it is the only chance to fight with the opponent in the airspace that they are best at.

However, this is only relative, because the Tomcat, which uses a computer-controlled variable sweep wing, has excellent surname capabilities in all kinds of airspace.

And now, Hamad is also in the range of the opponent's attack, and must get rid of the opponent as soon as possible.

Hammadeira pedals the rudder, maintains a glide angle, and swoops low while performing an S-maneuver.

Although it has the advantage of maneuvering at low altitude, in air combat, the remaining energy is very critical, and after entering the low altitude, the advantage in altitude is lost, and if the speed is lost again, then it will not be far from being shot down.

The cockpit disadvantage of the Mirage F1 is once again reflected, the field of vision is narrow, and if the outside world is perceived, he can only see backwards at every turn whether the fighter is chasing him.

Ziaz was indeed chasing him, and with his good maneuverability, he had successfully entered the opponent's rear hemisphere, while the off-axis launch angle of the Sidewinder missile was only more than 20 degrees, and because the Mirage machine in front of him was constantly maneuvering in the S-shape, he could not get the opportunity to launch the missile.

I don't believe you can't make mistakes! Ziaz stared at the Phantom machine in front of him, the opponent always started to turn in time, and then turned, even if it lasted a little longer, he could also use the Tomcat's better horizontal hovering surname to get the opportunity to launch.
