Chapter 195: Launching the Missile (75/100)
At this time, Captain Osipovich's heart was full of strangeness, how could this Boeing 747 passenger plane run into the airspace on his side?
And, next, what to do? The plane is continuing to fly in the direction of Sakhalin!
Is this a Trek airliner, or a reconnaissance plane of a Magic Pet airliner, like the RC-135?
Now Captain Osipovich was waiting for orders from his superiors, and at the same time, in the rear, the news was being quickly reported.
Thanks to the time-travelers, this era is different from history.
In Moscow, Ustinov was still dealing with a mountain of official business.
In the past few months, the armed forces, including the navy, have been constantly moving towards the Far East, and with the continuous arrival of the armed forces, in the Far East it has gradually gained a superiority in troops.
Fighting the battle in the Far East is a war that the Soviets must fight if they want to win a favorable situation, and gain access to the Pacific Ocean!
This war is the landing in Hokkaido.
On Sakhalin, enough troops have been deployed to quickly land across the sea to Hokkaido, after all, just waiting for the opportunity, just across the strait.
The combat effectiveness of the islanders is very poor, so as long as they land, they can establish a winning situation.
For this day, Ustinov has been planning for a long time, hoping that the Americans can acquiesce to the status quo, then they will only hold Hokkaido, and if the Americans dare to start another war, then simply go south and defeat the entire island country!
At the top, this plan has been discussed many times, and due to some political struggles, the final decision has not yet been obtained, but it will be pushed forward even at the risk of acting on its own.
As long as Hokkaido is occupied, it will gain a decisive strategic situation and completely break out of the encirclement of the West!
Just then, the phone rang.
Picking up the phone, inside was a familiar voice, and the commander-in-chief of the Air Defense Forces, Marshal Pavel Feodorovich Batitsky, said anxiously: "Marshal Ustinov, in the eastern part of Sakhalin in the Far East, an unknown large aircraft was spotted, two Su-15 fighters of our Air Defense Forces are monitoring, and now, the other side is heading in the direction of our Sakhalin intercontinental missile position. ”
Unknown large aircraft, flying to their own ICBM positions on Sakhalin Island? And still in the Far East? Marshal Ustinov's heart suddenly burst with joy, well, I was going to find an excuse, but now I actually took the initiative to send it to the door!
"Order, continue to watch, force warning! If they do not change course and fly into the distance of fifty kilometers east of our Sakhalin Island, open fire and shoot down! Ustinov said.
Originally, it was planned to land in Hokkaido, but there was no excuse, but now, at last, there is an excuse, the other side had better not change course and let their own side shoot it down!
Ustinov was very excited, this is a real excuse, it was the Americans who took the lead in provoking a conflict and provoking a war, then the Americans should not be afraid of being shot down, I don't care what kind of plane you are!
The order was quickly conveyed to the front, and at this time, Captain Osipovich was flying next to the Boeing 747.
The two planes, monitoring each other, continued to fly swaggeringly as if no one was fine.
Force Alert!
After receiving the order, Captain Osipovich flipped the switch in front of him and turned on the cannon.
In the darkness, the airliner was still turning on the navigation lights, the portholes were constantly shining light, and the Su-15 fighter slowly leaned in.
"Tom, tom!" The shell flew forward, and since the 23-mm shell was not mixed with tracer shells, the trajectory was not seen, and the shiny trajectory was seen, but the sound was deafening enough, right?
Captain Osipovich was waiting for a reply, he was firing on the right side of the opponent, so that the opponent should react to a left turn, and as long as he turned left, he could get out of his airspace.
"Tom, tom!" The sound of the cannon came into the cabin, and at this time, most of the passengers were already asleep, and Nathan, who had no heroes, was on the flight.
Even the flight personnel in front of them seemed to be a little tired.
When there was a voice outside, Qian Bingyin suddenly became a spirit, and his right hand began to tremble involuntarily again.
Is this the sound of a cannon?
Although the airliner was wide, the view was not good, and the cockpit in front of the nose only had a forward view, and in the dark night sky, they couldn't see that they were actually following two Soviet fighters.
Otherwise, Qian Bingyin would definitely give up this mission.
Hearing Qian Bingyin's words, Park Zhengyi on the side couldn't help but glare at him: "Stupid, didn't you also stay in the Air Force?" The shells used by night fighters at night are all high-explosive shells combined with tracer bullets, which are used to indicate the trajectory. ”
Park Zhengyi has participated in the war, and he doesn't use tracer bullets at night, how stupid must he be? You can't even see a ballistic, it's useless at all.
It's just that Park Zhengyi didn't know that the Soviets were really like this, because of the shortage of tracer bullets, they didn't stuff them into the bullet chain.
The airliner was still flying according to its original route, and at this time, there were only eighty kilometers left from Sakhalin.
"Prepare to launch missiles." The voice of the ground guide came from the headphones.
At the beginning, Captain Osipovich still had all kinds of ideas in his head, but now, when the force warning was over, he calmed down, and now, except for the mission, it is the mission, and he will do what the ground asks him to do.
The attack was first started by the long plane, and the failure of the long plane would be supplemented by the wingman, and now, Captain Osipovich quickly began preparations before launch, at this time it was flying in the tail of the opponent, and the four engines were a clear heat source, so the most ordinary infrared-guided R-98 missile was enough.
This missile has a huge four-piece wing, which looks very different from the air-to-air missiles of later generations, which is an old air-to-air missile.
About a dozen years ago, it was developed by the chief designer of Bisnovat, in order to make up for the shortcomings of the previous generation of missiles.
In terms of volume, it is almost a category of medium-range bullets, but in fact, the nominal range is only 19 kilometers, which definitely belongs to the line-of-sight weapon.
Due to the defects of electronic technology, the radar guidance model often fails, so it also has an infrared guidance model, which is an absolute Soviet characteristic, and due to the limited capabilities of the infrared guidance system, it only has a tail chase attack.
Although these missiles are not reliable, in the current situation, they fully meet their performance conditions, unless the passenger plane in front of them will also make a large maneuver to avoid its own missiles.
After preparation, the target had already flown to 50 km, and after hearing the command of the headset, Captain Osipovich pressed the launch button.
Under the wings, the flames flickered, and an infrared missile dragged the tongue of fire and left the pylon.
