Chapter 319: The Cobra Helicopter Falls
There is a specialization in the art industry.
Different warheads, against different targets, this is the most common and safe solution, for example, fragmentation explosion warheads, which are used to bomb people and aircraft, against tank armor, then use armor-piercing shells, and so on.
And the Cobra missile, although it has successfully jumped up and hit the helicopter, its warhead is not a fragmented warhead used to deal with helicopters, relying on a large number of fragments to kill and injure the opponent, as long as one fragment can touch the key position of the engine or something, it can destroy it.
It had only a thin jet of metal, and now it was heading towards the nose of the Cobra helicopter.
Almost at the same time, Saburo Matsushita also saw the missile, the terrible missile, which had pierced into its nose.
Yes, although it is a metal jet that undertakes the task of killing and killing, after all, the missile still has a speed of 300 meters per second, and now, when it hits the nose of the plane, it detonates and drills into it.
As a gunship, the Cobra helicopter has armor protection for its members, including bulletproof glass, including a bathtub under the pilot, but this thing is at most a machine gun bullet.
A metal jet of an anti-tank missile, which can easily pass through it!
When it passed through the armor with ease, it continued forward, plunged into the cockpit, and then, aimed right at Matsushita Saburo's thigh.
At this moment, Saburo Matsushita only felt a sudden pain in his leg, and then, blood gushed out like a waterfall, spurting out from his leg, even in the cockpit.
The metal jet passed through Matsushita Saburo's thigh, and Matsushita Saburo's good luck ended there, because the metal jet happened to have one of his major arteries in the impact path.
If it was just through a hole, it could still be rescued, at most, there would always be a hole there, and the wound there would not heal, no matter how big it was, it would be an amputation, but now, his blood was spurting out, and his life was only a few seconds.
"Damn it!" When he saw his companion in front of him squirting blood, Ozawa in the back couldn't help but shout, he pulled the operating stick, and wanted to drive the Cobra helicopter away, in fact, everything happened in an instant, the helicopter was collided, and the front one was passed through by a metal jet, and it didn't take a second to get to Ozawa.
Ozawa was lucky.
He just felt a heart-wrenching pain in his foot.
The height of the two people in the front and back is different, and the back is even higher, so the metal jet passed through the thigh of Matsushita Saburo in front, and only passed through Ozawa's foot in the back, and then, the metal jet continued to pass backwards almost without slowing down.
Behind the two of them, there is the equipment compartment, as well as the fuel tank, which is protected by armor, which is in the fuselage at the back!
Ozawa's luck only lasted for a short time of less than a second, and this metal jet passed through a distance of several meters, and finally got into the fuel tank behind.
Helicopter gunships, not completely hegemonic, also have a lot of weak points, it is impossible to be like a tank on the ground, all positions have thick armor protection, able to withstand the attack of large-caliber shells.
It was just a small-caliber anti-aircraft gun, and now, with an armor-piercing capacity of more than 500 mm, the Cobra missile can easily penetrate it.
It was like wearing a sugar gourd, from the nose of the front machine, through the cockpit of two people, and backwards, through a lot of devices, and finally hit the fuel tank.
At this moment, the fuel tank behind it burned in an instant.
Today's helicopters use turboshaft engines, which are similar to jet engines, except that the jet engine is powered by exhaust gas, and the turboshaft engine outputs all the power in the form of a rotating shaft, in fact, the turbine blades behind are larger and more.
This engine is small and lightweight, but it is still powerful, and at the same time, it uses high-performance aviation fuel, which is a little bit of a thing, and when the metal jet arrives here, it has not yet solidified, so it is easily ignited.
The fire was instantly extinguished from the rear fuel tank, and then rolled towards the front, enveloping the cockpit in an instant.
If it was a fighter, Ozawa would have parachuted just now when his foot was broken, but now, he can't.
The helicopter is a rather cheating machine, the rotor above the head provides vertical lift, so the helicopter does not need a runway, as long as it is a flat ground can take off and land, which greatly facilitates the operation, but the rotor on the top of the head also prevents the pilot's ejection escape.
The ejection seat must be ejected upwards, and if the pilot of the helicopter wants to eject, the rotors rotating overhead will be like a terrible chainsaw, sawing the pilot into several sections, which is the most tragic situation.
Therefore, for helicopter pilots, once the helicopter fails, it is only to fall with the helicopter.
Of course, if the height is enough and the rotor is not damaged, then in the process of the helicopter falling, the rotor will rotate with the air current, and at the same time reduce the speed of the fall, plus the helicopter's deliberately strengthened ability to carry the crash, the pilot can still survive.
And now, apparently, this is not the case.
In later generations, only the Russian Ka-50 was able to eject and escape, that is, the rotor was blown off with an explosive bolt first, and then the pilot ejected, and the pilot was only one person.
In short, that's an outlier.
Now, surrounded by the fire from behind, sitting in his place, Ozawa had no choice but to watch as the fire surrounded him.
War is so ruthless, just now, they were still hunters, easily killed two tanks, let five tankmen be burned to death in the explosion and fire of the tanks, and in the blink of an eye, they became prey, they were actually destroyed by some kind of weapon fired by the tank guns!
Any battle is extremely cruel, and for every soldier, as long as he goes to the battlefield, he will face death at any time.
The helicopter in the sky, which had turned into a fireball, tumbled and fell downward, and the Soviet tank crews here let out a cheer, which was great!
And the Nikolai crew that launched this artillery-launched missile will inevitably make a meritorious contribution to it, but now, Nikolai does not have much joy in his heart.
They're in big trouble right now.
The road ahead, blocked.
