Chapter 0674: Pathfinding (2)
Uncle Zhou returned to Kyiv with a dark face.
Flying back and forth for thousands of kilometers, he didn't know anything except for the beep of a radar warning machine. Alcy was no better than him, and both the master and servant were in a state of bewilderment.
The L-39 'Albatross' is a training aircraft, and it has no radar and no self-defense capability. The radar warning aircraft was pressed by Arcie during the modification process for flight safety.
The advanced radar warning function can intercept, identify, and locate hostile electronic emission sources, providing powerful information support for fighter pilots.
But Maozi's electronic technology is bad, and Arcie gets a simple warning plane from Boryspil Airport, which provides a warning after being locked.
It is not known who the opponent is, where it is, and how far away.
Returning to Kiev, Artie and Sophia carefully analyzed the situation of entry into the territory of Persia. At that time, the 'albatross' was flying close to the ground, and the mountainous area of northern Persia was vast, and there was so much clutter on the ground that it could not be detected by ordinary radar.
There are only two possibilities, either a warning search radar erected on the top of a mountain, or a pulse-Doppler radar with downward vision in the air.
Considering the environment in which the Albatross was located at the time, the Strange Maids quickly found out who their opponents were—the Relic F-14A Tomcat fighters of the Persian Air Force.
Before the religious revolution of '79, Persia used to wear a pair of pants with the United States. Shah Pahlavi purchased a batch of F-14A fighters from the United States, totaling 79 units.
In the following half century, these fighters were simply the treasures of Persia, and in the Iran-Iraq war, they made all the show, beating Saddam's Soviet fighters to the ground.
If you want to say that the flower grower is the biggest beauty fan in the world, Persia is almost shouting 'beautiful father'.
Before the Tomcat, Persia had purchased two American fighters, the F-5A/B and the F-4D. The former is a bargain exclusively for military aid, and the latter is a heavyweight in the second generation aircraft.
Naturally, American goods are excellent, and the level of technology is among the best in the world. The wreckage of the F-4 has been obtained in China, and the application of new materials and the state-of-the-art level of aircraft structure have been obtained.
Pahlavi's choice of the F-14A is also a legend. Even after he was ousted, the 'Tomcat' he bought was an absolute killer for the Persian Air Force.
In '86, Tom. Cruise's "Top Gun" gave the world a taste of the F-14A Tomcat. In the decades that followed, it was the brightest star of the three generations.
Not one of them.
In the Gulf War of 91, the US military made a big show and defeated Saddam's Republican Guard. Although the F-14A did not have a good record, it earned enough eyeballs along with the 8 aircraft carriers that participated in the war.
The 'Tomcat' in Persia's hands is at the same technical level as the current equipment of Lao Mei. The radar on this fighter is quite powerful and can act as a local air warning and command.
The 'Tomcat' was like a needle to Persia and gradually became a holy object.
After the Iran-Iraq War, there were still more than 60 'Tomcats' left in Persia, which were deployed in the 62nd, 82nd Tactical Fighter Squadron and 83rd Tactical Training Squadron, which were responsible for air defense in the Persian Gulf direction and were always vigilant against the Americans.
Uncle Zhou guessed that he might have encountered a 'Tomcat' flying north of Persia, and was spotted by the AN/AWG-9 pulsed Doppler radar it was equipped with.
It's really bad luck to get home.
In the nineties, the Tomcat was definitely a very deterrent piece of air force equipment. Combined with the 'Immortal Bird' long-range missile, it is simply invincible in the world.
The Su-27 has not yet been welcomed home in China. The development of the J-10 was full of twists and turns, and the prototype had to wait until 94. The J-20 does not even have a shadow.
It's just that Uncle Zhou is worried about the 'tomcat'.
Flipping through the map, the military deployment of Persia shows a clear emphasis on the south and light on the north. After all, the enemies are basically in the south, and at most the local chickens in the northwest should be more careful.
The 'Tomcat' is a treasure that will not be arranged casually.
It had a presence in Bushehr, a port city on the Persian Gulf south of Persia, facing a heretical enemy and the American imperialist army to the west.
It is also present in Mehrabad, near Tehran in Persia, and guards the security of the capital.
It is also in Isfahan, where the Persian Aircraft Building Industries Company is located, where all the repair work of the 'Tomcat' is carried out.
It is also available in Tabriz, facing the local chicken.
Zhou Qingfeng guessed that the 'Tomcat' he encountered should have come from the air base in Tabriz, and it was likely that warplanes were patrolling the northwest border. After all, the local chicken on the other side is not a good person.
"If I fly a 'Tomcat' across the Persian Gulf to give a 'dead bird' to the US fighter planes on the opposite side, will the Yankees be so violent that they will blow up their lungs and blow up Persia with their hands?"
It's hard to say.
The current US imperialism is in the highlight period, and when the whole world gives it a slap in the face, it will definitely not give up. Zhou Qingfeng was originally thinking about how to deal with the US troops stationed in Kuwait, isn't this just a trick.
"Alsie, let's do it again." Zhou Qingfeng stared at the map, "You have to land before entering the Persian airspace, and then pass by land and approach Tabriz." ”
Tabriz is an ancient city in Persia, the main route of communication between East and West. It was once the capital of several ancient dynasties, but it quickly weakened in modern times.
The city was built in the mountains and is very old. The general idea is that there are a lot of old buildings, and to put it bluntly, they are very poor. It is bordered by the Black Sea to the north and the Tuji to the west, and is considered an important town in the northwest of Persia.
To the north of the city, there is a dual-use airfield with an air squadron equipped with RF-5E reconnaissance aircraft. It is mainly used to scout the alliance and local chickens, and the 'Tomcats' that belong to it are not very expensive because they are too expensive.
Alcy was also extremely annoyed by being scared away the previous time. She quickly planned a new route, choosing to fly the Albatross to a place in Armenia with a road.
"The albatross is small, so if you move the inside of the alchemy workshop, you can stuff it into the workshop after landing. We have night vision and can fly over at night, so no one should be able to spot us. ”
Armenia, a small country that has been bullied by local chickens to the point of misery, has little international popularity. Zhou Qingfeng and Arcie set off again, choosing to land in their southern city of Yerevan.
After putting away the trainer plane, Alcy turned into a heavy off-road motorcycle and took his owner along the road to cross the border into Persia at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour.
The process is exciting but also boring. Taking advantage of the night, the master and servant set out before dark this time, and arrived on the outskirts of Tabriz before dawn the next day.
From the air, Persia is yellow except for a green ring near the Caspian Sea. This represents endless mountains and wastelands.
This is the case in Tabriz. When the sun shines at dawn, it's hard to see a bit of green.
Cities are built on the rivers on which the snow melts on the plateau, and agriculture and animal husbandry flourish, as well as some oil-related industries, as well as railways to neighboring countries.
Zhou Qingfeng was cloaked in camouflage nets and lay on the hillside near the airport outside the city, overlooking the area a few kilometers away.
Right inside the telescope, a 'Tomcat' was taking off along the runway, preparing for a training mission. The headquarters of the 81st Persian Tactical Fighter Squadron belonged to this.
"Oh roar roar roar ......, I saw the 'immortal bird' hanging on the half-buried pylon on the belly of the plane. This is the famous 'Tomcat', it's worth the trip! ”
(How about getting a 'Tomcat' to go home?) First ask for a wave of advertising clicks, the beautiful little hairy girl Internet celebrity. )
