Chapter 74 074 The first cry of the skuas

On the stormy flight deck, the colorful vests need to hold on to something, and everyone wants to go back to the cabin of the hangar, drink a cup of special black tea or coffee, chat and fart, but no one dares to do so. The air defense sirens are blaring, the enemy is coming, and if nothing is done, this amphibious assault ship, which is on its first mission, is likely to become a result of the enemy and a disgrace to our army.

Zhang Juzuo took his air crew team to the deck despite the wind and rain, although it was raining outside, there were no J-8V fighters parked on the deck at first, and the vigilant captain Tang Zuogang specifically asked the air crew to keep at least two J-8V parked on the deck, even if it was raining. So Zhang Juzuo and his comrades-in-arms covered the two J-8Vs with huge raincloths and fixed them in the parking area of the flight deck.

At this time, Zhang Juzuo was deeply impressed by the captain's foresight, and asked the fighters to be on duty and on alert, even in the wind and rain, to wait for orders at any time, and asked the shore-based early warning aircraft of the North Sea Fleet to maintain cruises, so that the ROK fighters could be mastered after taking off at the first time. As a military commander, he has never been too cautious, and Tang Zuogang has taught Zhang Juzuo a good lesson.

Zhang Juzuo personally rushed to the flight deck with his comrades-in-arms, took down the rain cloth against the wind and rain, and two more comrades-in-arms drove the boarding ladder trolley to erect it. The two Red Alert pilots immediately climbed onto their fighter planes and carried out the last system inspection in a nervous and orderly manner.

The two J-8Vs are fully armed, with six air-to-air missiles hanging under their wings, including two PL-8 and four PL-12, and Jang Juzuo knows that the main role of these two J-8Vs is to delay the attack of enemy aircraft, and the four fighters on board the ship are by no means enough to resist the invading South Korean Air Force. The shore-based naval aviation in the rear will also urgently take off fighters to reinforce after being notified, so as long as they resist enemy aircraft, they will definitely not fall behind in numbers.

"Fuck, are the sticks dead? Do you have to fight with us? A noisy voice sounded beside him.

Zhang Juzuo saw that it was actually the ancestor of the pot cover, Xiaozhou, and he couldn't help asking, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Come and help!"

Zhang Juzuo said angrily: "Just don't make trouble!" ”

"Hey, don't underestimate us, we've been trained like this to deal with emergencies like this." Zu Xiaozhou and his comrades-in-arms immediately joined various groups according to the content of the training, some were responsible for refueling the fighters, some ran to help the elevators, and some got on the tractors, which really looked like they.

This is also a helpless move, because there are really few skilled air crews on the Hainan now, and as an elite Evil Jiao Commando often has garrison missions, so temporary cameo air crews are a compulsory course, which comes in handy at this time.

Zhang Juzuo didn't care about them, ran to a plane with a small board, and said to the pilot: "Comrade, please press the brakes lightly and check the front and rear flaps." ”

"Check the left rear flap, it's normal."

"Check the right rear flap, it's normal."

"The weapon system is checked, and the weapon indication system is normal. Switch cannon, cannon rotates, normal. Switch missiles, missile tracking system is working, normal. Switching the thermal decoy weapon countermeasure system, the response is good, normal. The weapon system and countermeasure system are normal. ”

"The terminal speed is normal, the altitude is normal, the chassis is normal, the signal lights are fault-free, the flight inspection is complete, and the Golden-billed Gull 31 requests to take off!"

A yellow vest half-crouched, with one hand behind his back and the other stretched forward, the J-8V engine spout glowed with orange-red light, slid on the flight deck for more than 100 meters, and then left the deck and flew into the sky. Immediately after that, another J-8V followed and took off from the deck.

In order to keep the enemy aircraft in the inner defense ring of the threatening fleet as much as possible, the two J-8Vs turned on the afterburner to enter the maximum speed Mach 1. 6. Through data link sharing, they have obtained intelligence about the incoming enemy of the South Korean Air Force.

"4 F-5s, 4 F-4s, approaching at high speed."

J-8V, as a short-range vertical take-off and landing fighter, is actually a hard bomb load, such as the current two fighters, each can only carry 6 air-to-air missiles, and the Air Force's main air superiority fighter J-10 can carry up to 12 missiles if necessary, and their usual task mount layout is also 8 or 10 missiles. Although 6 missiles are enough in medium-intensity air combat, it should be somewhat gratifying to think about the J-7, an older generation of fighters, which can only carry 4 or even 2 missiles.

Qi Yiming's J-10 in that timeline is also a basic air supremacy mission mounted 6 pieces, and he brought a modified version of the J-10 after he crossed, which is simply a European typhoon-based J-10 fighter, and the payload capacity of 17 pylons can be called perverted. The Navy is also covetous of the J-10's bomb hanging ability, especially the multi-purpose performance of people is good, and more than seven tons of payload can be hard. However, the J-8V used by the Navy has just been delivered, and although it has the ability to take off and land vertically at short distances, it really does not dare to show off its bomb load of more than 3 tons.

"The data link downloads the enemy's coordinates, and the Sky Bird 12 guides it." At this distance, the J-8V's airborne radar is not able to catch the other side, but it is not a problem to rely on the balance beam radar of the early warning aircraft, such a unified combat mode, in fact, the fighter is only used as a missile launch platform, and it is the command center of the early warning aircraft that really discovers and guides.

Without the slightest hesitation, the two J-8Vs fired all their medium-range missiles, and the PL-12 of Mach 4 also hit the South Korean fighter that was full of South Korean fighters that they thought they were flying across the sea and could not be discovered by the Chinese Air Force.

"What's going on? Have we already been discovered by the Chinese? "The South Korean Air Force pilots, who had been attacking with fear, lost five of their comrades in a matter of moments. Four warplanes were shot down directly, and one was also crumbling after being damaged, and it looked like it was planning to make a forced landing somewhere.

"Another over-the-horizon missile for the Chinese! Damn it! "The previous South Korean army suffered enough from the PL-12, and at this distance of fifty or sixty kilometers, the Chinese could launch the PL-12 to attack the opponent as they liked, and the South Korean army sometimes could not even find out where the Chinese fighters were, let alone attack the opponent.

There is no way to detect the other party, and their semi-active radar-guided Sparrow missiles will not be able to attack, but today their luck is also good, because behind a few fighters is their own fleet, and entanglement of the opponent is the first place, so the two Skuas will not take the previous methods to make a detour, deliberately so that the South Korean army cannot see and then sneak attack from other positions. They must now face off against South Korean fighters in a face-to-face life-and-death battle to protect the fleet.

"I found the Chinese, attack quickly!" At this time, the South Korean F-5E finally saw the J-8V fighter and was eager to be the first to shoot down the Chinese fighter, and the South Korean pilot quickly pressed the missile launch button.

It's just that the missile they launched is still AIM-7E, and the hit rate is only more than 10 percent, and when the radar beam sweeps to the two J-8V, the radar alarm has already sounded, and the two fighters are not in a hurry, and they make a maneuver reaction step by step, and the tumbling Skua easily detached from the F-5E's fire control radar, and as soon as the Sparrow missile loses its target signal, it immediately becomes a headless fly, and I don't know where the channel has turned.

After dodging this wave of AIM-7 attacks, the two sides were already within line of sight, two J-8Vs against two F-5Es and one F-4E, but the F-4E was carrying bombs and preparing to hit the ship, so there was no air combat.

But the J-8V pays more attention to this F-4E than the F-5E with the remaining two cover, unless the South Koreans also want to learn from the kamikaze, otherwise the F-4 with at least three tons of bombs is the biggest threat. Frankly speaking, it is basically impossible for this ordinary aerial bomb to cause much damage to the Hainan, but it cannot be let go because it cannot sink itself.

A J-8V swooped down and fired a PL-8 missile at the F-4, and the PL-8 they were equipped with had the ability to attack in all directions, which was higher than the AIM-9P that the US military is now equipping, and was more powerful than the earlier model of the Rattlesnake that the South Korean army was using.

The bomb-laden F-4E wanted to dodge the missile, but it was too heavy, which affected the maneuverability, so it could only hurriedly shoot a hot decoy bomb. Who knew that the PLA version of the PL-8 could distinguish the difference between the heat of the thermal decoy bomb and the jet vent, and still chased the F-4 Phantom II. Regular hot decoys generally need to do some maneuvers such as rolling, and this guy is flying flat like this, and there is no second way except to be shot down.

Killed this F-4E, the remaining two F-5 also rushed to the J-8V like a red eye, but the other Skua took the opportunity to pull the plane, and suddenly the nose was aimed at an F-5E that was diving, and the pilot fired a cluster of 23mm cannon shells, which directly pierced the left wing and tail engine of the F-5E, although it was not directly destroyed, but the fighter also lost the ability to fight again, and wanted to quickly exit the battle circle, and keep the plane flying to escape.

The last F-5E found that he was the only one left, and he was also frightened, but his position was good, just behind the J-8V that shot down the F-4 just now, but he still found himself too optimistic. J-8V found that he was bitten tail, immediately climbed to make an instantaneous disk, F-5E immediately tragic, when found that another J-8V rushed over, this South Korean pilot who had lost confidence in combat, actually pressed the ejection button himself without the other party launching missiles or cannons, perhaps because he was afraid that there was no possibility of escape after being hit, so it was better to take the opportunity to eject and escape immediately.

"Attention, a second wave of enemy fighters is coming. The 31 and 32 of the Golden-billed Gull will return immediately! Repeated, the gold-billed gull 31 and 32 immediately returned home. ”

Just after the two J-8Vs completed their air combat mission, their replacements, two more J-8Vs on the carrier, also rushed to the battlefield, and about 200 kilometers behind, eight J-8Vs taking off from land were also rushing to this airspace, even if the second wave of the South Korean army's air attack fleet was approaching, the entire fleet was temporarily relieved.
