Chapter 497 - Shoot Down F-15 (Three More Requests for Subscription Reward)

Under the starry sky of the moon and stars, eight thousand meters in the air, a two-seater Eagle fighter plane is returning to Israel.

An hour earlier, the Eagle had entered Lebanese territory and successfully launched an air strike on a Lebanese armored company that was massing towards the front line.

The powerful assault fire directly destroyed nearly half of the vehicles in this armored company, including a number of armored vehicles, and caused dozens of Lebanese soldiers to be killed and wounded.

The Hawk fighters, which had completed the attack, returned from a relatively safe route as usual, and the airspace of 8,000 meters was unattainable for the current air defense weapons in Lebanon.

However, just as the fighter was passing through the mountains on the edge of Etashap, the passive radar alarm in the fighter suddenly sounded.

The two pilots at the same time saw several anti-aircraft missiles suddenly rising in the mountains and jungles ahead.

"Oh my God, where are the anti-aircraft missiles here?" The weapon controller, who was in the back seat of the cab, hurriedly exclaimed.

And the pilot in front of him, where did he have time to let out a cry of surprise, looking at the anti-aircraft missile that was rapidly climbing up, and the contact time from the fighter was only two or three seconds.

However, in the face of the missiles that surrounded them, the jamming bombs that had been released as quickly as possible, and the fighters who made maneuvers, were still a beat slower.

In such an environment, being locked by multiple anti-aircraft missiles at the same time is almost a certain death.

The missiles exploded around the fighters, and a large number of shrapnel fighters quickly billowed smoke in the sky, but fortunately the Eagle fighters were heavy fighters and were not directly hit by the missiles. in order to be able to maintain the integrity of the fighter fuselage.

But the fighter engine and fuel tank were hit by shrapnel. Fighters also lost the ability to fly. Flames began to burn inside the fighter, and the plane lost control and fell slanting towards the mountains below.

The pilots of the two fighters, when the fighters were no longer able to save, watched the dark ground get closer and closer, and at the same time pulled up the catapults.

With two seats, the two pilots were finally about to catapult from the fighter plane at a height of close contact with the ground.

Two white parachutes opened, and the fighter crashed into the forest. At this time, the fuel tank was detonated by fire during the impact, and thick smoke and flames rose in the mountain forest.

Because it was too close to the mountain forest, the parachutes of the two pilots had just opened, and before they had officially slowed down the speed of descent, they plunged headlong into the dense forest.

The bodies of the two pilots, in close contact with the branches, suffered tremendous injuries, and there were scars all over the impact.

When they finally recovered from the impact, they were almost fainted by the pain and bruises all over their bodies.

At the same time. The distress signal was also transmitted to the satellite as soon as possible, and Israel's two remote sensing satellites also locked the location of the distress signal as soon as possible.

The Air Force immediately got the situation that the fighter was shot down. At the same time, I also received inquiries from front-line troops.

The movement of the fighter falling was not small, and when the anti-aircraft missile was lifted into the air, it was also seen by many people, so the front-line troops came to ask what was going on.

Obviously, a fighter plane that was supporting the ground forces was shot down, and the Air Force, which received two signals for help, also determined for the first time that the two fighter pilots were still alive.

However, the situation is clearly very unfavourable, as the pilots of the two fighters landed in an area not controlled by the Israeli army.

It is a very dangerous area of engagement, and the Lebanese army, which successfully shoots down the warplane, will inevitably search this area as soon as possible.

Even the two pilots who escaped could have been seen by the Lebanese army below in the process of ejecting the fighters.

If the two drivers fall into the hands of the Lebanese army, the end will be absolutely tragic, and if they do not die, they will shed their skin, and even be tortured to extract confessions.

For the first time, the Air Force also activated the rescue mechanism, and the search and rescue special forces under the Army Aviation Unit immediately received the rescue order.

Israel was the first country to set up an air rescue commando team, because Israel, which attaches great importance to the air force, has always attached great importance to the construction of such units in order to ensure that the pilots can be returned as soon as the manned aircraft have an accident.

The so-called air rescue commando is naturally a special force, because the construction of the entire commando team is built in a special rescue operation mode, and the rescuers in it have all been trained in special operations and have various rescue skills.

The rescue commandos quickly boarded the transport helicopter and headed for the distress signal under the cover of two Israeli Super Cobra attack helicopters.

At the same time, the Israeli troops who were fighting in this mountainous jungle also received the same order, and all the troops in the vicinity of the plane fell immediately approached the crash site.

Strive to find the pilot before the air rescue commandos arrive, before the Lebanese forces arrive, and bring them back safely.

And at this time, how can the rescue forces have time to think about how anti-aircraft missiles appeared here, and even when the Lebanese side was equipped with such advanced anti-aircraft missiles.

Naturally, this question was left to the Air Force side to ponder, and the answer to the question soon appeared.

Previously, the cargo of the ten transport planes shipped by the Future Technology Group to Lebanon included three complete land Aegis air defense missile systems.

The Israeli side can only blame the intelligence services for the appearance of the missiles here, and they did not discover the relevant information and clues in advance.

Otherwise, how could this fighter pass by here.

Of course, now is not the time to pursue responsibility, the Israeli Air Force is now too full of lice and is not afraid of itching, it is already a lot of trouble, if all of them are held accountable, a large group of high-ranking officials will all have to go to court-martial.

At the same time, around the mountain peak where the battle fell, in this mountain forest that is tens of kilometers long, fifteen sniper squads are already waiting for the arrival of rescue troops here.

In front of the snipers hiding, the reconnaissance group had moved forward for almost three kilometers and came to the front-line position in the area of engagement between the two sides.

The reconnaissance group, which was also lurking, soon heard the sound of helicopter rotors in the sky, and the heat-insulating suits on their bodies completely blocked the detection of body heat energy by the infrared device on the gunship.

At the same time, the snipers in the rear also quickly received a message from the reconnaissance group. (To be continued.) )
