The Immortal Bird missile, with a range of hundreds of kilometers, combined with the AG-9 radar, is simply a weapon for long-range interception.

However, this range of the immortal bird is deliberate, in order to reduce air resistance, the overload of the projectile body is not high, and at the same time, after launching, it must fly to an altitude of more than 20,000 meters, and the air is thin in the high altitude in order to increase the range.

And now, the distance is only fifty kilometers, so the Immortal Bird missile does not need to use a high-throw trajectory at all, as long as it flies like an ordinary missile.

The tail of the Immortal Bird missile, dragging white smoke and dust, flew towards the distant sky and disappeared from Nathan's sight.

The Tomcat fighter continued to fly smoothly, while Gus, who was in the rear cabin, stared intently at his screen, looking at the point of light representing the missile, and swooped down fiercely towards the target.

Shoot down each other!

The cost of an immortal bird is almost the same as that of a Mi-24, and it must be achieved in battle!

The Immortal Bird missile swooped down fiercely at Grevich, and soon, it entered the guidance distance of the active seeker, and with the launch of electromagnetic waves from the missile radar, the mission of the carrier aircraft was over.

This is the strength of the Immortal Bird missile, which is an active medium-range missile. In later generations, when the R-77 of the United States began to enter service in large quantities, the Chinese Air Force conducted research, and finally sadly found that in the face of active bombs, the only way is to have the same medium-range bombs, otherwise, when the two sides shoot at each other, the side without active bombs will be quite passive, which is a terrible generation gap.

Now, the Immortal Bird missile has entered the stage of active radar locking, although at low altitudes, its speed also exceeds Mach 2, towards the target, and continues to pounce fiercely.

In Grevich's headphones, when the locking sound never disappeared, he suddenly became nervous, if he couldn't even get out of the lock, then there was no other way for the gunship.

If it is a fighter, it can also be got rid of it by high mobility, such as flying against missiles, and so on, hoping to get rid of it instantly, but the maneuverability of the helicopter is quite poor and must not be compared with a fighter.

What to do?

Grevich gritted his teeth, put down the general moment, the roar on the nose continued to decrease, and the Mi-24 began to fall!

Mi-24, the flight altitude was not high, and now it is falling like this, the sea surface seems to be in front of you, the plane is about to turn into a submarine, and the weapons operation officer Glovanov in the rear cabin can't help but shout: "Grevich, are you going to commit suicide?" ”

"If we can't get out of lockdown, we're going to die!" Grevich shouted: "We have no choice! ”

The helicopter continued to rotate, and at this time, the surrounding sea water had been blown by the propellers, causing waves to form concentric circles and spread outward.

The helicopter continued to fall, and finally, its three-point landing gear had come into contact with the seawater, and at this time, Grevich suddenly pulled up the general moment.

The Mi-24 helicopter, the distance from the sea surface, is already negative, the landing gear is in the sea, the fuselage is on it, the propeller is still turning, and Grevich hopes to rely on this adventure to dodge the terrible missile.

I'm not a helicopter anymore, I'm a boat! I'm not big, I'm a speedboat, yes, it's a speedboat, air-to-air missiles, just do your old job, don't come to the sea to find trouble!

At this altitude, helicopters are quite dangerous.

When the helicopter is flying close to the ground, the air flow that is hit down by the rotor will be blocked by the ground and compressed, forming an "air cushion" effect, which changes the pull force of the main rotor, which is called the ground effect.

The ground effect is most pronounced on helicopter hovering flights. The closer the main rotor is to the ground, the stronger the ground effect. Therefore, when the helicopter is flying on land, it can hover at a very low altitude.

On the sea, the ground effect is very weak, or even none, and requires the pilot's superb flying skills.

The most terrible thing is that the tail rotor suddenly fails when hovering at low altitude, at which point the helicopter fuselage will begin to turn. If not handled properly, it is easy for a helicopter to roll over.

In short, hovering at ultra-low altitude on land requires the pilot's skill, and flying at almost negative altitude on the sea surface requires the pilot's skill.

Grevich's hands, shaking at high frequency, constantly adjusted the attitude of the helicopter, and the helicopter stayed firmly on the surface of the sea.

And Glovanov, who was in the back seat, was nervously observing the side, which was the direction of the enemy's missiles.

At the same time, in the wide cockpit in the back, a fighter of an infantry squad also realized that a terrible danger was coming.

Why did the helicopter hover here? There must be a situation!

A soldier sitting at the side door suddenly caught the terrible missile in the air, it actually did not give up the attack, and was still firmly locked on the target!

The radar seeker of the Immortal Bird missile was not deceived by this action at all, as long as it was within its field of view, it would firmly lock on to the target!

Because the target is decreasing altitude, it is constantly decreasing altitude in flight, taking a diagonal line, its seeker, firmly locking on to the target, even if the other party hovers, even if it becomes a speedboat, it will not give up!

Air-to-air missiles, used to hit targets such as speedboats, in fact, are not difficult, the key problem is that the warhead is different, to hit air targets, you need to use a broken rod warhead to form a large area of metal, as long as the opponent touches a piece, it will be killed, and it is the same as an airplane hitting a bird.

However, to hit sea targets, it will not work, you must rely on semi-armor-piercing warheads, and for ships, the fragmentation warhead is an itch.

Now the Immortal Bird missile is in the final stage of the attack, and no matter what the target is, this flight, will not miss.

"It's coming, it's coming!" When he saw the warrior, he immediately exclaimed, and then, with a poof, he jumped into the water.

At this time, it is not a question of being brave or not. When danger comes, avoiding it is the first priority, if you can't protect yourself, how can you fight the enemy?

He jumped and became the only survivor of the helicopter, and at the same time, the only witness to the undead bird shattering the Mi-24, he could see it clearly.

"Boom!" At this time, the people behind still wanted to jump down, but it was too late, and the immortal bird missile that swooped down from the sky, with a whistle of a few Machs, rushed over, and then, the proximity fuse action, detonated the warhead in front.
