Chapter 216: Running Out of Fuel (96/100)

When you know that there is a wall in front of you, do you dare to hit it with your head? Ordinary people will subconsciously stop at the last moment, so those who commit suicide by hitting the wall are also worthy of admiration.

Now, it's the same thing, do you dare to fly forward even though you know that you are going to crash in front of you?

Ordinary people don't dare, but Nathan is heading towards the iceberg, and at the same time, the missiles behind are also following the fighters, getting closer and closer.

The Tomcat fighter plane is also continuing to dive towards the iceberg, and when it is visible to the naked eye, it looks like it is about to collide!

Suddenly, Nathan jerked the lever and kicked the rudder, the wings of the fighter unfolded, the fuselage tilted to the right, and then, with a graceful curve, the belly of the aircraft rubbed the edge of the iceberg, and the closest distance was only a few centimeters!

In the blink of an eye, the Tomcat fighter turned sideways and passed by the iceberg, and the missile was not so fast.

The maneuverability of the R-23 is not high at all, the overload is not large enough, and now that it has passed the power range segment, maneuverability is even more limited.

It had already reacted and wanted to continue chasing the missile's tail nozzle, but it couldn't turn the corner.

"Boom!" The missile hit the iceberg and exploded in an instant, and in the huge flames, the iceberg broke open and turned into pieces of ice.

Under the big overload, the blood in the body is flowing towards the lower half of the body, Nathan felt a black in front of him, he pulled the operating stick according to the previous perception of the surrounding airspace, let the fighter climb up, in case the direction is wrong, then go to the sea.

A few seconds later, just after the clear sky had just returned to the sky in front of me, a bright spot appeared from the airspace on the side, it was the fighter plane that had launched the missile!

Hmph, let you taste the latest missile!

Nathan quickly turned on the fire control system, activated a Sidewinder missile, and turned the nose of the plane towards the other side, and a few seconds later, a locking sound came from the headphones.

Fire!

AIM-9L missiles, detached from pylons, flew forward, Soviets, knew about head-on combat shells?

In the distant sky, a fireball appeared, this missile actually received such a good effect, the other party didn't know how to dodge, and it was hit directly?

Nathan lamented that his luck was too good.

"The fifth, the Lone Ranger, we have already shot down five enemy planes in this sortie!" Gus's mouth was extremely excited.

Five, what does it mean? It means that Nathan has become a flying ace, because this is a two-seater, so the title of ace is awarded to his own crew!

This is just an air battle, if the air battle continues to break out in the future, Nathan's luck and skill are bursting, I wonder if he will set a new record?

Gus was delighted.

"Attention, there is also an enemy aircraft." "If we don't figure it out, our return won't be smooth," Nathan said. ”

The back is locked, that's the saddest, where is the last one? If you continue to return, will the other side open fire in the back?

"Lone Ranger, we're running out of fuel." Gus was worried about his fuel: "If we don't return immediately, I'm afraid we won't even be able to fly to Hokkaido." ”

The fight just now, especially the continuous opening of the afterburner, the fuel consumption is very fast, and it is precisely because there is not much fuel and the body is very light, just now Nathan was able to throw off the missile from the iceberg, of course, it is his own technology in place, the engine is powerful, and the body becomes lighter, which is also a very important reason.

"The opponent has already fired two medium-range bombs just now, and according to their load, the rest should be combat bombs." Nathan thought for a moment and continued, "Since we don't have a lot of fuel, let's just fly back." ”

As long as it is not a medium-range projectile, the remaining short-range projectiles, such as the R-60, have a short range, little power, and do not pose much of a threat.

It's time to go back, especially the mounted scout pod, the contents are too precious to be in love.

"Oh God!" At this moment, Gus exclaimed again: "Are the Soviets crazy? ”

On the screen, dense highlights, the Soviets dispatched at least ten or more warplanes, flying in the airspace towards their own war, it seems that the Soviets have an obvious meaning, that is, to strangle themselves.

Think about it, if you kill the other party's five planes by yourself, the other party must be crazy!

"Ignore them, we fly at a very low altitude." Nathan said.

There were icebergs everywhere, and the Soviets would not have been able to find themselves from the icebergs unless they used AWACS.

"However, our fuel will definitely not be able to fly that far."

Flying at high altitudes, saving fuel, flying at low altitudes, fuel consumption is very large, according to Gus's calculations, your own fuel, high altitude is enough to choke, low altitude is even worse.

"So, we're going to call AWACS." Nathan said, pressing the intercom switch: "The Lone Ranger calls Kitty Hawk, the Lone Ranger calls Kitty Hawk, please prepare a refueling plane, please prepare a refueling plane." ”

"Kitty received it and immediately prepared a tanker." A voice came from the headphones: "111 Squadron is about to rush to the airspace, please hold on." ”

"Lone Ranger received."

Now the airspace of the flight is already the standard international airspace, and Nathan is also sighing in his heart, in the legends of later generations, there is the mysterious air battle of Sakhalin, and now, his arrival, is it the source of this air war?

Whatever, it has nothing to do with me, now, I have a rattlesnake left, the fuel that is about to run out, I have no ability to continue fighting, and my mission this time was originally a reconnaissance flight, why did I finally fight?

The Tomcat fighter was flying slowly on the sea at an ultra-low altitude, and at this time, in the airspace, the dark clouds of the big war were already shrouded.

Because the aerial reconnaissance was beaten by the group, this is a small incident, and now, the melee of the large aircraft groups on both sides seems to be about to kick off.

The Tomcat fighter is at an altitude of 12,000 meters, and it has set up a formation, compared to Nathan, a Tomcat who only performs reconnaissance missions, these are all air combat mounts, although there are not many hangings, under each fighter, there are two immortal birds!

"Attention, we have found the target, and now we are ready to lock it." The deputy squadron leader of the 111 squadron shouted over the radio: "Let's use the Tomcat's radar, tell them how strong we are, and rescue our captain!" ”

At this time, in front of them, in the airspace of more than 100 kilometers, the Soviet aircraft group also discovered them, and originally planned to continue to encircle Nathan, until the sound of the radar warning receiver in the headset sounded, they were already eating, and then, they had to change their formation again, and also at an altitude of 10,000 meters, set up an interception line.

It seems that the battle will be on the verge of breaking out.
