Chapter 360: A Minute of Air Combat

"What are you thinking?"

Major General Nick, who suddenly turned around, noticed Wen Ming's strange expression, which looked like a ...... I want to laugh but I can't help laughing.

Wen Ming hurriedly straightened his face and said: "I'm thinking about why this target person is so stupid, doesn't he know that there are not only unmanned reconnaissance planes, but also military reconnaissance satellites?" He drove the plane away with such fanfare, and let two fighter planes escort him, didn't he make it clear to the whole world...... Come and get me? ”

Major General Nick shook his head and said, "You ignored those two private business jets, and without your technical support, we wouldn't have been able to determine that he was on that gunship." Moreover, this is Colombian airspace, do you think Colombia has the strength to knock out two of his fighters, and one helicopter gunship? ”

Of course Wen Ming knew these truths, he just didn't want to explain why he had a strange expression just now.

At this time, on the combat command screen, the weapon configuration of the helicopter gunship had been called up, and in addition to the machine gun, there were also Sidewinder missiles and multiple rocket launchers. This configuration is almost identical to Pablo's previous gunship called 'Skylark'.

This can also be seen as a problem, after entering the 21st century, military weapons such as helicopters and fighter jets are no longer so easy to obtain. Just like the two MiG-29s owned by the target, although they are still powerful fourth-generation fighters, they are completely incomparable to those higher-end fifth-generation fighters that the US military wants to enter service.

Some people may say that the air combat of fighter jets is directly related to the technical level of pilots, but how can a drug dealer recruit truly experienced fighter pilots?

With the current desire for experienced fighter pilots in various countries, the salary that drug dealers can offer may be higher, but it is very risky to follow drug dealers after all.

Wen Ming asked again: "When are you going to take down those two fighters of his?" I think it's better to defeat it now, otherwise, when the target enters his secret base, we will lose and be more difficult if we want to do it again. Wouldn't it be easier to take out his fighter now and then use the F-16 to force the target's helicopter gunship to land in an area we can control? ”

Whether 6 F-16 fighters, with those ace pilots of the US Air Force, can take out two MiG-29 fighters is obviously not a question sentence.

Although the target person's helicopter gunship has Sidewinder missiles, it is really not ordinarily difficult to use Sidewinder missiles to hit fighters.

Major General Nick said with a calm expression: "Don't worry, wait for him to stay farther away from the densely populated areas of Colombia." ”

Wen Ming looked at the picture on the big screen of the combat command and asked, "What if his secret base is in a densely populated area of Colombia?" ”

In Wen Ming's opinion, this problem is really difficult to solve, they are not the Colombian government army, and the current Colombian government is obviously not determined to solve this trouble. Otherwise, how could the news be communicated to the target so quickly?

Since the Colombian government has not made up its mind, if the target is hiding in a Colombian city, then Rear Admiral Nick will not be able to solve the other party even if he transfers the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.

Major General Nick did not answer Wen Ming's question, but continued to stare at the screen, giving some instructions from time to time.

This made Wen Ming feel very strange, because this action has been revealing irregularities from the beginning to the present. For example, when the target person is in the manor, although there are more armed personnel, SHSD's combat team can directly break through into the manor after being equipped with Umbrella I armor.

Arrange a few more snipers for fire support, and wait for SHSD's combat team to break through into the manor, and then arrange ground combat units to besiege and break through.

It's really not that hard to capture the target alive.

Even if it is necessary to determine whether the target is in the manor, it is possible to demonstrate the air defense of the SHSD before the target person boards the plane and escapes. For example, knock out the two fighters of the target person, so that the other party does not dare to escape in a helicopter.

Judging from Wen Ming, a person who has little experience in commanding wars, his idea is definitely the most suitable, because there are no innocent Colombians around the manor of the target person.

But now, the fighter jets and helicopter gunships of the target could not be hit, because after they did, there was a high risk that the fighters and helicopter gunships would crash and hit the real innocent Colombians.

If you wait until the target person enters his base, the difficulty of the battle will definitely increase a lot.

"What is the reason?"

Wen Ming frowned, he always felt that Major General Nick had something to hide from him, and the question he asked just now was to go down the slope, but Major General Nick didn't answer.

It didn't take long for the target's helicopter gunship to reach the outskirts of the Colombian city of MedellΓ­n, and it was already clear that the target's destination was in the surrounding mountains.

The military reconnaissance satellite transferred by SHSD has already begun to reconnoiter the mountainous area without blind spots, and in 10 minutes, a base has been discovered according to the prediction of the target person's route.

At this time, the target person's helicopter gunship is getting closer and closer to that base.

"Knock out those two MiG-29s for me."

Major General Nick's voice was resolute and decisive, and the six F-16 fighters that had already flown into the area immediately began to dive.

Speaking of which, the F-16 and MiG-29 are both fourth-generation fighters, but the MiG-29 has only produced more than 1,600 units of all the revised models, while the F-16 has produced more than 4,600 units.

Regardless of the economic problems of both sides, because both models are sold to the outside world, if the F-16 is not a little better than the MiG-29, then why do so many countries buy the F-16 instead of the MiG-29?

"Air combat?"

Wen Ming, Donus and the others were all interested, and they were engrossed in staring at the command screen, but they could only see the radar signals representing the fighters of both sides, and could not see the real air battle picture.

Even so, they couldn't help but let out an exclamation, because the radar signal of the target fighter's fighter had completely disappeared the second minute after Major General Nick ordered the attack.

"So fast?"

Wen Ming didn't expect that the so-called air battle would only have one minute of combat time, even if it was 6 to 2, but it was too fast.

Major General Nick's expression finally relaxed a little, and he explained, in a good mood: "Our F-16 can be upgraded to a certain extent, but their MiG-29 can't be upgraded at all. Just like the iphone produced by your company, although they are all smartphones, the performance of the iphone1S is definitely much better than that of the iphone1. ”

Wen Ming asked in surprise: "Do you also know that we are going to launch iphone1S?" ”

Major General Nick replied: "You should ask how many people don't know. ”

After a few small talks, Major General Nick entered the command state again, but he did not let the 6 F-16s force the target to force the target helicopter gunship to land, but directly let the 6 F-16s go back.

At this time, the helicopter gunship on which the target was riding had already rushed to the secret base in the mountains in a bit of a panic, and the strategic transport plane carried by the ground combat team led by Hans was already about to fly to the vicinity of the secret base of the target person.

Major General Nick gave the order again: "Capture the target alive, pay attention to Colombia's support for the target, if you are caught by Colombia, there will be no rescue operation." ”

This order made Wen Ming understand a lot in an instant.
