Chapter 161: Forced Landing Backfire
"Damn Pakistanis! What are they going to do! "In the cabin of the Tu-22M2, Igor, a pilot in his forties, was almost about to roar.
Under the wing of that Tomcat, there were two more missiles, and under the belly of the plane there was an immortal bird, and when that plane flew, the pilot had a sense of foreboding.
Igor went crazy when the other side shot his cannon in front of his flight, and when the young Pakistani pilot gestured to him, he knew that the other party was going to make a forced landing.
Igor couldn't hold back anymore, this is simply an insult, even if the other side shoots down himself with a missile, it is more dignified than this forced landing!
At present, there have only been expulsions between military planes, and there has never been a forced landing at all, and at most it is just a forced landing of a fighter jet on a civilian airliner.
Igor jerked the lever and slammed the nose into the opponent, who then rolled deftly and out of his sight.
The four-seater bomber had a limited field of vision, and the pilot had only a front and side view, and in his sight, there was no trace of the fighter.
Finally gone! Igor breathed a sigh of relief, and after flying more than twenty kilometers, he would enter the airspace of Afghanistan, and as long as he got there, he would be safe.
"Tom, tom." At this moment, suddenly, there was another barrage in front, and the shells came down from directly above!
After Rick detached the fighter, he rose vertically into the air and swooped down.
Damn it! Igor quickly pushed the lever to the right, and at the same time kicked the rudder, dodging those shells, the other party is crazy, really crazy!
Watching the tomcat fly past in front of me, almost grazing the nose of the plane, the slightest deviation will cause a collision.
"Boom." Fifteen 500-kilogram bombs in the bomb bay. Almost at the same time, they were thrown down by the bombardiers, all of them on the hill below.
After these bombs were dropped, the Tu-22M2 bomber was relieved for a while, which was a last resort, and after hanging the bombs, the maneuverability was greatly reduced. And now, this Tomcat fighter has been playing maneuvering with its own side.
Come on, aren't you going to crash? Look who's afraid of whom! Igor was also furious.
The tomcat flew again, this time head-on, rolling as it went, as if it were performing a flying stunt.
Bump into it. Bump into it! Look who's afraid of whom! Igor's eyes were full of anger.
"Wrong course, we're flying east." Said the navigator.
Originally, they flew back, but under the impact of the Tomcat fighter, they had to make two turns, and as a result, they went back.
If you can't hit it this time, turn back! In Igor's eyes, the Tomcat fighter grew bigger and bigger.
"Rick. What are you doing! The sky was spinning, and Jackson in the back cabin couldn't help but shout. This kind of action is just a show, and it doesn't have any actual combat significance, is this guy crazy?
"I'm going to hit this backfire." Rick said.
After two passes, Rick finally made up his mind and got closer. He stopped rolling, and then, pulling the lever back slightly.
At the same time, the opponent's bulky bombers also pressed down, backfire was below. The Tomcat was on top, and the pilots who were backfire could almost see the Immortal Bird missile mounted on the Tomcat fighter, which was just flying past their scalps.
Igor suddenly secretly screamed in his heart that it was bad, not good, it was tricked!
"Bang." There was the sound of metal colliding from behind.
The wing root part of the left wing of the Tomcat crashed precisely into the tall vertical tail behind the Tu-22M2.
The wing root part is the wing box, which is made of titanium alloy and has a strong structure, while the vertical tail of the Tu-22m2 is just an aluminum alloy skin.
From a distance, it looks like an airplane without a vertical tail, and its rudder is left with less than a tenth.
Rick looked to the left from his seat, his wing still intact, and under the control of the computer, the variable swept wing was still retractable and almost unharmed.
And that backfire, at this time, has turned into a turkey without a tail.
"Damn it!" Igor cursed, and there were mountains everywhere below, and the bomber, which had lost its hanging tail, suddenly rushed forward like a staggering man who had drunk too much vodka.
"Pull up, pull up!" The co-pilot on the other side shouted.
Igor used all his strength to operate the fighter, and finally flew over the mountains here.
There is very little aerodynamic torque left in the tail rudder, and the course can only be adjusted slightly, and it is absolutely impossible to turn a 180-degree bend and then return. As soon as Igor was about to give the order to eject, he saw on the other side of the mountain, a clearing in the shape of a long strip, which was a dry riverbed.
The air flow in the mountains is complex and changeable, and the ejection of the backfire is not completely safe, especially now, the altitude is so low, and the ejection is probably risky, Igor gritted his teeth and depressed the nose of the plane.
"Put down the landing gear." Igor shouted.
The landing gear of the third row was lowered, and although the conditions for taking off and landing at the field airfield were not met, Igor did his best to pull up the nose of the plane and land downward!
However, at the moment when the wheels had touched the ground, a crosswind suddenly came, and the crosswind in the mountains was very strong, directly blowing the wings high and low, and when landing, the wings were in the maximum wingspan state, and suddenly, the wings on the right side touched the ground.
The wingtips touched the ground and then bounced violently, and Igor now had nothing to do but brake the wheels, the riverbed was too short.
"Bang, bang." As Igor stepped on the brakes, there was a violent sound below, and the wheels of the backfire were originally high-pressure tires, and they were brutally operated by Igor, and the braking force was greater, and suddenly, several tires were braked.
The explosion was the wheel on the left side, which originally bounced to the left, and when it exploded, the left side sank suddenly, and the entire fuselage suddenly buckled.
The fuselage rubs against the ground, emitting sparks, and if the remaining fuel in the fuselage leaks out, it will definitely be an explosion.
In the upside-down fuselage, looking at the scene in front of him, Igor also let out a frightened cry.
Finally, the fuselage stopped, and the four crew members who were stunned, all but one of whom were still conscious, unbuckled their seat belts, and they began to slowly climb out of the cabin.
The Tomcat fighter crossed the sky, and looking at the complete fighter plane that had crash-landed on the riverbed, Rick couldn't help but shout a loud slogan in the cockpit.
Yes! It worked!
The air battle was over, two F-16s pursued the Soviets' MiG-25s, one of which was damaged by a Sidewinder missile, fled back to Afghan airspace, and the other, unscathed, returned unscathed.
By the time Hussein's Tomcat returned, the battle was over.
As he flew over the dry riverbed, he saw that the ground forces had taken control of the area, and they moved very quickly.
Rick piloted the Tomcat fighter over Peshawar Airport, saw the ground crew below waving to him, and then, three turns, aimed at the runway, and landed.
I thought that my father would come to the runway to greet him, but when I got off the plane, I couldn't see anyone except the cheering ground crew, and I didn't see any of the Americans who usually worked in the base.
Jackson got down from the rear cabin and looked at the wing box of the wing, and he also sighed, the front had been slightly deformed by the impact! It's a blessing that the wings are still spinning properly!
Mechanical fatigue has occurred, and this wing needs to be repaired.
"Rick, this impact, at least $800,000 lost." Jackson said: "This wing box is made of titanium alloy, and 800,000 yuan is also the company's internal price. ”
"I have to be scolded." Rick looked at the wing box, couldn't help sighing, and after speaking, he asked the ground staff next to him: "What about the base commander?" ”
"Went to the place where the Soviets planes made a forced landing." A ground crew said.
Northwest of the Peshawar base, 100 kilometers away.
There are mountains all around, and to have such a riverbed in the mountains is simply leaving a way for this plane to live, and at the same time, it also gives yourself a chance!
Although the plane has been upside down and one wing has been broken, the fuselage is still intact, and if it is repaired, it may be able to fly back into the sky!
Those who came to the airbase here by helicopter had blazing eyes in them, especially those Americans.
When the air battle broke out, the rest of the Peshawar Military Region was also on high alert, and when the news of the plane fell, the closest ground unit was immediately dispatched. At the same time, the aircraft was well protected.
"Mr. Commodore General, what are you going to do with this plane?" The head of Grumman, John said to Mhammad.
When they learned that one of the backfires had been forced to land, these people were moved and asked to come with them, after all, they were now helping their side, and there was no reason for Mhammad to refuse.
When they arrived, they saw the bomber in almost perfect condition, and their eyes widened.
Of course, Mhammad knew what they meant, and now, he had to hang their appetite.
"Pull back to the base first, of course." "You can't stay here in the wind and the sun, but the mountain road is rugged, and it's not easy to get the plane out," Mhammad said. ”
"Dismantle! We dismantled it into several pieces and shipped it out by truck! John said, "We are willing to volunteer to help our friends." ”
Even if you can't get it, in the process of dismantling, you can learn more about this fighter.
"Then we'll have to hurry up." Mhammad did not object: "The Soviets will definitely send planes to bomb again, and maybe even launch surface-to-surface missiles." (To be continued......)
