Chapter 0888 Appearance
Southeast Strait, 10,000 meters of airspace.
A two-plane formation of F-14A flew over the northern side of the median line of the strait. Chen Rui, the pilot of the long plane, grabbed the joystick and looked out of the cabin. At his height, he could faintly see the coastline of the island about 100 kilometers away.
Today is the first official appearance of the 'Red Tomcat', and Chen Rui's palms are a little damp. The superiors asked him to just make an appearance, to deter his opponents, and not to do anything superfluous.
In the 90s, with the money in his pocket and the equipment given by his American father, the southeast rebels jumped very happily. In addition to the F-16A/B, they sent people to the United States in 94 to pick up the E-2T, and will form an airborne early warning wing at the end of 95.
Preparing for a rainy day, the country attaches great importance to the E-2T. Although this kind of carrier-based early warning aircraft is far inferior to the E-3 in terms of information processing capability due to the limited space in the aircraft, it is simply like a big killer weapon to cooperate with the 'Fighting Falcon' to bully the Jian-6 and Jian-7.
Considering that the Holy Light has been supplying industrial products to Iran and even helping to maintain the Persian Cat fleet. The internal committee of the country has long suspected that it was Alsie who flew the F-14A to shoot down the E-3, and has been asking how to deal with the AWACS aircraft.
It's just that the Witch Queen's tone is stricter than anyone else's, and when asked about the air battle in the Persian Gulf, she has always kept her mouth shut. But when it comes to cruising the Strait, she is more active than anyone else.
Where did the ministry dare to let Artie go to the strait. As far as the fiery and ruthlessness she showed in training, she might be able to fly into the sky to reward the 'Fighting Falcon' on the opposite side with a 'Immortal Bird'.
In the early days, the 'Fighting Falcon' only had a close-range 'rattlesnake' and a medium-range 'sparrow', and bullying the 'Seventh Master' was to abuse vegetables. But when you come across a 'Tomcat' with a long-range bomb, it's your turn to turn into a dish.
But there are only twelve 'Tomcats' that can be fought in China, and the 'Immortal Birds' are also limited, so they can't afford to lose them. If the opposite side is equipped with early warning aircraft, it will be enough to make up for the slight disadvantage of missiles.
It is impossible not to worry about this 'ant bite to death elephant'.
Alas...... Recently, the bald man on the opposite side has been jumping too happily, and from time to time he rushes across the center line of the strait to provoke. They even dared to fly close to the coastline of the mainland in an attempt to trick the ground-to-air missile units into turning on their radars and collecting information on confrontation.
What can be topped up here is the Su-27SK, and even the outdated goods like the 'Seventh Master'.
The F-16A can hang an electronic jamming pod made by the "Thunder" company, which often interferes with the radar screen of the Su-27SK into a snowflake.
As for the 'Seventh Master', it is even worse. In the early days, the 'Seven Masters' didn't even have radar, and in the later period, there was radar, but the caliber was too small. Radio communications and navigation were jammed. If you're not careful, the pilot gets lost.
It is precisely because the bald man jumped too much that he forced the country to put a 'Tomcat' two-plane formation to come to the town, otherwise the morale would be too ugly.
Not long after Chen Rui took off, the radar of the AN/AWG9 of the 'Tomcat' immediately scanned several high-speed targets over the strait. Judging from the trajectory of the voyage, it is the bald 'Fighting Falcon' that rushed across the middle line and ran to find nothing.
Exchanging information with the ground radar station, Chen Rui communicated with the wingman, retracted the 'Tomcat''s variable swept wing, and accelerated towards the opponent.
The two sides did not reach the point of tearing their faces, and when they encountered provocations, they were expelled at close range. The bald 'Fighting Falcon' also saw a bright spot approaching at high speed on the radar, and after a little evasion, he turned on the jammer, trying to tease the opponent.
If it is an old-fashioned tube avionics, the lack of processing power will really be disturbed. The Su-27SK suffered from this, the radar was full of snowflakes, and if you couldn't see anything, you could only fly stupidly.
However, Chen Rui's two 'Tomcats' were urgently replaced with a full set of digital avionics to upgrade against the F-14D. A group of American 'grandfathers' personally instructed and the domestic military factories took action.
"These grandsons are playing this game again." Chen Rui could tell from the avionics that he was suffering from electronic interference, but the back-end processor of the airborne radar filtered out the interference signal.
The weapons officer in the back seat controlled the radar, and the in-flight communication asked, "Captain, do you want to punish the other party?" Just like Instructor Arcie used to do. We're in a perfect position. ”
Arcie often uses fire control to lock on to the target, causing the cadet's plane to sound a radar alarm. The pilots of the 'Blue Army' learned this trick very quickly, and every time they abused their brothers' units, it was a similar routine.
It's just that radar locking is quite aggressive, Chen Rui refused: "I don't want to write a review after landing, I just need to appear." We'll go over now. ”
The throttle push rod is one step to the end, and the turbofan engine instantly becomes an orange-red tail flame. The wings are reduced to a minimum, breaking through the sound barrier in an instant, revealing a beautiful Mach ring in the air.
The two 'Tomcats' rushed over violently, and the two 'Fighting Falcons' on the opposite side immediately felt the pressure. They originally wanted to release the interference and go around the opponent's tail, but they found that today's fighter plane of the 'Ah Gongzai' was a bit unusual.
The two 'Su-27s' did not fly as stupidly as headless flies, but quickly reacted to electronic interference, and the nose of the aircraft was facing the 'Fighting Falcon' and flew over accurately.
Turning on afterburner into supersonic speed, the distance of several tens of kilometers passed in a flash. The two sides quickly came within visual distance. The bald Fighting Falcon pilot saw with the naked eye two different fighters approaching.
Almost instantaneously, the two sides crossed over and flew behind each other.
The bald pilot found out at first glance that the opponent was not the 'Su-27'. They subconsciously want to immediately hover and bite the opponent - the F-16A has a light body, a large energy advantage, and a small circling radius, which can easily change the flight state.
But the 'Tomcat' that accelerated to fly tightened the throttle, and the swept wing quickly pulled to the maximum, switching from supersonic to subsonic. Turn, bite the tail, stare to death.
A series of operations play smoothly.
The two sides enter a state of 'dog fight'.
Only then did the bald pilot see his opponent up close, and immediately shouted in horror on the radio: "Tomcat, it's a tomcat!" How could it be a tomcat? It turned out to be a tomcat! ”
The Fighting Falcon circled left and right in the air, flapping up and down, in a vain attempt to use the advantage of its high-thrust engine to shake off its opponents. But no matter how he threw it, Chen Rui in the back stared at him alive, flexible like a butterfly.
"How is this possible? I can't get rid of it. The bald pilot turned his head to look behind him, his mind full of bewilderment.
Daddy warned them that the mainland had 'gotten a lot of F-14As from Iran'. But don't be afraid, the TF-14 engine of the F-30A is not good, and it is easy to enter a state of surge when frequently changing the flight state.
I want to crush the 'Fighting Falcon'. Unless it's an F-110D with an F14.
"Impossible. Didn't you say that the F-14A "dogfight" has poor performance? Why can't you get rid of it? How can it be so strong? ”
The two 'Fighting Falcons' were bitten by the tails of the two 'Tomcats', and whether they were accelerating or circling, the heavy machine could easily crush the light machine.
In the end, the bald pilot had no choice but to stop maneuvering, flapping his wings instead to show no hostility, and turned back to fly back to the center line of the strait, terminating the mission.
When the bald pilot landed, he immediately began to shout, "It's over!" The A. Gongzi has 'tomcats', and they really have the 'tomcats' of American dads. They are not afraid of our electronic interference, and they can bite us all the time.
What can I do? ”
