Chapter 313: The missile is blind
The Soviets are like martial arts masters, they have some martial arts, and they want to come up and fight the enemy, but unfortunately, they are opposite the army, and the army is not close at all, relying on the formation, relying on the bow and arrow, they killed the martial arts master.
Two walls of tomcats, advancing back and forth like waves, long-range missiles are finished, and medium-range missiles are on again!
Logically speaking, the Su-27 is equipped with R-27 medium-range missiles, which is no worse than the Sparrow, the problem is that I was just scared and did not dare to turn on the fire control radar anymore!
They didn't know that this time they were all radar-guided missiles, not anti-radiation missiles.
The Immortal Bird missile is bulky and heavy, with an overload of less than 10G, while the Sparrow missile, with a light body and a maximum overload of 30G, as long as the target does not escape the radar irradiation of the carrier aircraft, the Sparrow missile, which has been developed and matured, will rarely get out of lock.
In the Gulf War, the Sparrow missile achieved a good record, and it was exactly the same model as the Sparrow missile used by Pakistan at this time.
Vlasolovich used all his strength to avoid the two Sparrow missiles fired at him, but others did not have such luck as him, and the remaining four Su-27 fighters were shot down again, and this time, most of the pilots had the opportunity to parachute.
If it weren't for the first time, it was overshadowed by the missiles of the opponent's anti-radiation seeker, and the Su-27 fleet should be able to leave at least half of the missiles on both sides, and then, relying on the medium-range R27 and the close-range R73, achieved the result of shooting down.
But now, out of 50 fighters at the time of departure, now there is only one left, and this kind of loss is something that Vlasolovich cannot afford in any case.
He was very angry, and the anger inspired him to fight endlessly, at this time. He could already see the fighters on the opposite side, the Tomcat fleet lined up in a straight line.
Fight, fight! Vlasolovich pulled the lever, took advantage of the altitude, and then prepared to dive down from a high altitude, relying on the superiority of the R73 missile. Shoot down enemy planes!
"042, fight me!" Hussein shouted over the radio: "The rest of the fighters, use Sparrow missiles, shoot down the remaining enemy planes!" ”
At this time, the second wave of Immortal Bird missiles had already been launched, and the pilots of the MiG-29 fleet on the opposite side were experienced veterans, even so. Only half of the pilots threw off the missiles, and half of the fighters were hit.
At this time, the two walls were already on the same plane, that is, at different heights, and they all completed the preparations for the launch of the Sparrow missiles, after the AWACS aircraft quickly assigned the firing targets. Preparations for launch began.
The Sparrow missiles of the Hussein group are all normal medium-range bombs. And the Sparrow missiles of the second group are all models of anti-radiation seeker.
In this way, no matter whether the arriving MiG-29 fleet is guided by radar to guide their medium-range bombs, or whether it does not turn on radar and flies silently. All under the absolute blow of Tomcat fighters.
With sufficient military aid from the United States, the Sparrow missiles are all used in a double salvo to deal with one target, and they don't believe that they can't kill the Soviets!
In the case of missiles fired by the rest of the fighters. Hussein and his wingman, having turned on the afterburner, swept back to the end and began to climb upwards.
Opposite them, there is the Su-27 that is flying!
The close-range combat missiles carried by both sides had the ability to attack head-on, so at a distance of 10 kilometers, each side fired a missile at the opposite side.
AIM-9M missile, flying quickly towards the opposite side, its seeker, firmly locked on the opponent's fighter, it is the latest type of close-range combat missile, as long as it is locked, the target can never escape!
It's not just luck, it's more about chance, in the air battle just now, Vlasolovich has already thrown off four missiles fired at him, and he has precisely mastered the timing.
The only option to dodge the oncoming missiles is to fly, and when you want to be hit, you can get rid of it by relying on the excellent maneuverability of the fighter! Because the field of view of the opponent's seeker is not so wide, as long as it leaves the field of view of the seeker, it will be thrown off.
You only get one chance!
In Vlasolovich's pupils, only the flying missile remained, he pressed the infrared decoy drop button, and the side of his fuselage lit up with beautiful and brilliant fireworks, and then, he pulled the head of the engine suddenly, and the fighter began to climb vertically, and then turned on the afterburner.
The overload of this cheating fighter was limited after the speed was close to Mach 0.8, so he did not accelerate just now, so that the speed of the fighter has been hovering around Mach 0.6, and now, he has successfully made this big overload maneuver.
The AIM-9M missile, from the side of his fuselage, flew by again.
He flattened the nose of the aircraft to see if the other side was hit by his own missile, and he was confident in the R-73 missile.
After all, the seeker of the R-73 missile can see a qiē within a 60-degree angle of the central axis in front, so even if the other side is like himself, relying on the last moment of maneuvering to pass by, it is impossible, and there is no suspense if it is shot down.
But when he flattened the nose, he saw something he couldn't believe.
The fighter plane that was locked by him, just after launching the missile, immediately rolled on its side, turned, and fled backwards!
It's useless to run back, unless it's a fighter like the MiG-25, which flies faster than missiles.
Moreover, after turning, the red-hot tail nozzle is pointed at the missile, and it is even more impossible for the missile to be unlocked.
And in these few seconds, the missile that flew over seemed to turn into a headless fly, lost its course, and suddenly fell.
Damn, the missile malfunctions! Those ground crews, when they were loading missiles, did not carefully inspect them! Don't they know that a malfunctioning missile is murder?
Vlasolovich, of course, does not know that this is not a missile malfunction, but a nirvana of the Pakistani Air Force!
Just after discovering that the other party had launched a missile, Hussein pulled the fighter and began to move backwards, letting the chrysanthemum face the opposite side, and the radar officer in the rear cabin began to operate nervously.
When the switch was turned on, the power of the entire cockpit seemed to be suddenly interrupted, and the perverted xenon lamp was too powerful!
The power must be large, otherwise how can it burn through the seeker of the R-73? When the light of the xenon lamp shines on the missile, the single-phase infrared scanner feels a high temperature of tens of thousands of degrees, and all the sensing elements suddenly smoke, just like a laser blinding weapon! If the missile could speak and move at this time, it would definitely cover its eyes and scream repeatedly. Ah, I can't see it, it hurts!
Without a seeker, a missile is an uncontrolled rocket.
Just as Hussein turned to throw off the missile, his wingman had continued to move forward and entered the grappling phase with the opponent.
The aerodynamic layout of the Su-27 was excellent, and the engine thrust was high, so, after the two sides entered the fight head-on, Vlasolovich immediately pulled the lever and began to climb upwards.
Climbing, compared to thrust! The thrust-to-weight ratio of the Su-27 exceeds 1 and can climb upwards effortlessly, while the Tomcat fighter is equipped with a new engine, and the overall thrust-to-weight ratio is less than 1, so compared with it, it can only be to find death.
Those with insufficient thrust will fall first, while those with sufficient thrust will roll down and chase to the butt of the fighter in front of them, and will be inserted into the blazing chrysanthemum by the opponent's missile.
The two Tomcat fighters will naturally not be fooled, when the Su-27 began to climb, the two fighters, just continued to fly level, the wing sweep angle became the minimum, from the high-speed sprint state just now, into a low-speed fighter, when its wings are completely flat, even if the target is a propeller aircraft, it can also be combated.
So, the Su-27 performed alone, through the rearview mirror, seeing that there was no fighter coming, the pilot knew that he could not do this, he pushed the nose of the plane and began to dive downward, this speed, brought the continuous secretion of adrenaline, he felt his blood surging.
The speed quickly surpassed Mach 1 and continues to increase.
Height translates into speed, potential energy into kinetic energy, and in grappling, the most important thing is energy!
When he dives down, the energy he has accumulated can completely allow him to perform a large overload maneuver and then kill the opponent!
The helmet-mounted sight was shaking, and in the process of diving, he locked onto a target.
Pressing the electric gate, another R-73 missile rushed up with a roar.
When the Su-27 was found to have swooped down, the two Tomcat fighters immediately left quickly in both directions.
Sure enough, I was scared! If you want to escape, can you escape the pursuit of the R-73 missile?
Vlasolovich, after launching the missile, pulled back the lever and began to level the plane.
Damn overload limiting! Vlasolovich wanted to be lifted manually, so he leveled this action and made him turn a large arc to achieve it.
An R-73 had just been launched, and the enemy plane would never be able to escape, so he pushed the lever and began to chase another Tomcat fighter.
Close combat is about who is braver!
The escapee, gave him a chrysanthemum, which is the most advantageous shooting position!
He didn't look at the results of the R-73, and when the missile whizzed by, he was suddenly blind. At this time, all Vlasolovich's attention was on the slow-moving Tomcat fighter in front.
Aren't you going to be shaped? At this time, why don't you put away the swept wings and sprint quickly? Vlasolovich shuffled in his heart and began to lasso the other with his helmet sights.
At this moment, the other party was unwilling to be locked in the fate and began to roll sideways.
Vlasolovich followed the lever and rolled on his side. (To be continued......)
