Chapter 265: Order to fire
As the weapon operator in the back pulled the ejection handle, under his seat, a blazing flame erupted.
The ejection seat was invented during World War II, at the beginning, it was just a rubber band, which was almost the same as the principle of a slingshot, and later, as the speed of the aircraft increased, it also needed a newer way, until now, it began to use rockets as power to push the seat out of the cockpit.
Now, the blazing flames are burning, and these tail flames are harmful to the people next to them.
If the ejection seat is ejected straight up, then the flame is ejected directly downward, and the impact is smaller, but not now.
If they are both upward, then, if two people catapult at the same time, they may collide in the air, and multi-seat planes need to have different angles when ejecting.
For example, now, the person on the left is ejected to the left, and the person on the right is ejected to the right, both diagonally, and the trajectory of the two people in the sky is a V-shaped style.
At the same time, because it goes out diagonally, if it is ejected from one side, it will inevitably spray the blazing tail flame to the other side, which will pose a terrible threat to the companion on the other side.
Therefore, the ejection seat is linked, as long as one side is ejected, the other side, will also be ejected, whether you want to or not.
Now, the weapon operator pulled the ejection handle, which immediately displeased the navigator on the other side, but his dissatisfaction only remained at the stage of exclamation, and after he finished shouting, there was also a fire under his buttocks.
Under the huge overload, his whole body was pressed tightly against the ejection seat, unable to move at all, and after he flew out of the cockpit, he used all his strength to only put his middle finger up.
You bastard!
Ejection is not the best way.
Below them, there is an endless sea, far from the mainland, far away from their search ships, and once they eject, then, next, life and death are dead.
Don't expect the USSR to come to their rescue, this is beyond the capabilities of the Soviet Navy.
Moreover, it is not yet the last resort.
The order to eject can only be given by the captain, and if you don't have the captain's order, you will eject yourself, that is a coward, and at the same time you will disobey the military order, even if you are rescued, you will face the trial of the court, and if you don't do it, you will live in prison for the rest of your life.
The navigator did not want to eject, however, the weapon operator had already taken matters into his own hands, he opened his eyes, and after the air flow dissipated, wanted to find the weapon operator's parachute in the dark sky, and then beat him hard!
Fortunately, the ejection seats are only two linkages, and the two people in front are not affected.
However, in addition to the smell of rocket smoke coming from behind, there was also a cold one.
The bomber used a pressurized cockpit, but when it was ejected, the tightness had been destroyed, and there were two holes in the rear compartment that it must not be closed.
On his back, there was a cold wind blowing all the time, and Vladimir's face was extremely ugly.
Cowards, fools!
As soon as the rear cabin ejected, two big holes leaked, and at the same time, Vladimir did not dare to continue to accelerate, if the speed of his plane continued to increase, then in the part of the hole, a flow of air inhaling outward would be formed, if he flew to supersonic speed, then this air flow can definitely suck everything in the cockpit out.
Inside the headset, the locked sound was still there, and Vladimir regained his composure: "Keep flying, ignore the sound of the radar warning receiver!" ”
What are you afraid of!
If the Americans wanted to intercept their own side, they should have done so a long time ago, and now, after they have launched their own missiles, they have suddenly appeared, which is obvious evidence.
Americans, don't dare to do it!
They shot down their own transport planes and everything, all over Hokkaido, in their airspace, and now, this is the high seas, and if a large-scale military conflict breaks out, the Soviet Union will be completely enraged.
Yes, that's it!
Keep flying, Americans, it's just a matter of scaring yourself with lock-ons!
Vladimir guessed right.
Restraint, maintaining restraint, this attitude made Nathan think of later generations, when he wanted to be a harmless rabbit to humans and animals, you beat me, I scolded you for your fine style, and now it is a glorious tradition in the United States.
It's all like this, and the order to fire is not given later!
The distance between the two sides began to expand from fifty kilometers and then widened, but the order that Nathan was waiting for never came.
It was for this opportunity that they locked up their huge backfire formation in one fell swoop.
If you fire now, you can shoot down at least half of the backfire bombers, and at the same time, this also means that the Soviets' saturation attack tactics are quite unreliable and will be crushed by their own side at any time, and the Soviets fantasize about sinking the American aircraft carrier formation, and the aircraft carrier formation will rely on carrier-based aircraft, it will be an unsinkable steel Great Wall at sea.
But now, these soft eggs, just don't give the order to fire!
In Nathan's back cabin, Lieutenant Guth was also constantly reading the data.
"Seventy kilometers."
"Eighty kilometers."
"Ninety kilometers."
The range of the missile is related to the state of the attack, and now, it is a tail pursuit attack, 90 kilometers, and it has reached the boundary of the launch envelope of the Immortal Bird missile.
Now, even if you want to attack, it's useless, and the opportunity to launch is lost.
It was still dark all around, and the tomcat group lined up in a scattered formation let out a sigh, the opportunity was too rare, and it was better to let those backfire bombers escape.
It's so speechless.
Although nothing could be seen in the dark night sky, the radar officers sighed as they looked at the fading bright spots.
What's the use?
Does this intimidation work against polar bears? If it hadn't been for my mercy, you'd all have been shot down. This kind of truth is not explained to polar bears, polar bears recognize their fists, and only when their fists are hard enough, polar bears will let go.
Nathan felt sorry for the wasted opportunity.
No, there is!
These Backfire bombers, all big guys with variable sweep wings, threw missiles, and ran very fast, however, there are still slow guys.
"Hawkeye, Hawkeye, please indicate the direction of the opponent's maritime reconnaissance aircraft, and our 111 Squadron will be responsible for expelling it."
The dead end of the long-range missile is here, although it has a range of several hundred kilometers against the sky, but it needs the guidance of a maritime reconnaissance plane, and in actual combat, it is quite tragic, unless it is the kind of satellite system that relies on the satellite system to search for and lock on to the target in the future, otherwise, the actual value will be greatly reduced.
Those anti-ship missiles have already been launched, so the reconnaissance planes will definitely not fly away immediately, and they will have to complete the final mission.
