With his keen observation, Long Yun noticed the suspiciousness of the attacker.

Piloting the fighter plane to dive from a high altitude, using flexible side rotation and barrel rolling maneuver to approach the enemy plane head-on, Long Yun's first impression was that it was not an F-15, but four F-16s, or light fighters like the F-5E.

After dodging the opponent's inaccurate artillery attack, changing the barrel roll and circling to slow down, the Red Seventeen suddenly flexibly turned to the back of a group of enemy planes covering each other, and Long Yun in the cockpit nervously scanned the sky and found no other threats, so he briefly concentrated on dealing with this group of enemy planes at ten o'clock; The silhouette of the enemy aircraft that was distracted from the left and right was very clear, it was two F-16Cs, and the crescent moon on the wing also made him realize that this should be the Turkish Air Force fighter transferred by the Americans!

In the face of the siege of the Turks, Long Yun had much less pressure to deal with it.

Of course, this is not to say that he despises these opponents in front of him because of his recognition of nationality; As an important member of NATO in southern Europe and the Near East, the Turkish Air Force also has some experienced veteran pilots, and he has also fought against these guys in the previous air battles in the Caucasus.

But now, clearly thinking about the previous operational intelligence, the F-16 equipped by Turkey has not been upgraded with a fire control system and does not have the ability to carry the "Slammer", and how big of a threat can it be with the "Sidewinder" alone?

In the face of the F-16 twin planes that separated from the left and right and tried to use the double ring to engage each other and cover each other, Long Yun decisively seized the opportunity to bend the side rod and bend the side rod and give full play to the subsonic hovering ability of the Su-27S to point the nose of the enemy aircraft to the left, almost shooting an R-73M like a blind shot; Seeing that the missile ignited and flew away from the pylon, he immediately retracted the throttle to slow down and maintain a state close to the angular point speed, pressing the slope and turning right. Closely follow the circling footsteps of another enemy aircraft.

In sight. The light and nimble Turkish "Fighting Falcon" is constantly making turns. Apparently the pilot was working hard to perform the deception maneuver that served as a decoy, waiting for the Russians behind him to turn 270 degrees after him, providing a window for the opposite hovering partner to fire head-on attacks. But the Turkish pilot apparently overestimated the strength of his opponent, and after a few seconds of climbing and circling at full strength, he suddenly noticed the missile tail flame looming on the side of the wingman, and the Russians, who were supposed to be chasing him, had already attacked!

As the missiles swooped down, a brilliant burst of fireworks exploded in the sky, and the "Fighting Falcon", which had lost its flat tail on one side, struggled to maintain its flight balance and fell forward with a thick smoke in tow.

Due to the angle of attack of the missile, it is difficult to grasp the timing of the detonation of the fuse of the R-73M. This precise and sharp crit did not directly blow up the opponent, but the Turkish pilot who witnessed this qiē was still sweating nervously, and the combat power of this lone Russian enemy plane was completely beyond his imagination!

In the panic, the instinct to survive made him immediately pull the rod to keep climbing, trying to get rid of the opponent who had entered the back hemisphere, but the disadvantage in the thrust-to-weight ratio made his movements deviate, and at this time, the height of the two fighters was getting bigger and bigger, and the horizontal projection distance was shrinking.

Seeing that the opponent in front of him was still desperately climbing, and the orange flames in the tail spout were particularly obvious, Long Yun pulled the lever slightly, curbing the urge to use another R-73M to directly explode the chrysanthemum; The next battle was unclear, and he didn't want to run out of missiles so quickly. So he increased the amount of fuel injected and kept the afterburner running at full speed. With a strong thrust of more than 20 tons, the plane was kept climbing at a small angle and gradually increasing its speed, and when the opponent was put into the range of the gun, it pulled the trigger and fired two rapid short shots in succession.

With the press of the button. The 30-millimeter projectile that struck at four times the speed of sound instantly traveled a distance of thousands of kilometers and swept out a thin fire dragon on the back of the thin "Fighting Falcon"!

After the dazzling light of the tracer bullet disappeared from the field of vision, I saw that the F-16, which had been still climbing, had become a kite out of control, but the red flame of the tail nozzle was bright and terrifying, and it was obvious that the engine had been hit by a bullet and caught fire, and could no longer provide any power support for the fighter.

Seeing that the enemy plane had been shot, Long Yun did not observe the results of the battle any longer, and immediately entered the reverse turn to avoid the plundering attack launched by another group of Turkish "Fighting Falcons"; As a veteran of a hundred battles, he naturally knew that once the engine of a single-engine light fighter caught fire, there was no possibility of a normal landing, and whether or not he could insist on flying back to the airfield hundreds of kilometers away was a matter for the Turks to worry about.

After taking off, it continued to engage, damage and shoot down four enemy planes, at this time the fuel of the Red 17 had been consumed by more than half, but the fuselage had become lighter due to the reduction of fuel and missiles; In the face of another group of F-16Cs who were angry because their comrades were shot, Long Yun is now a little unintentional, to be honest, he doesn't think that these Turks can recognize who they are, and with their combat effectiveness, if they are all shot down by themselves, how can they go back and report to their superiors that "the Caucasus Grim Reaper has been found"?

However, even after thinking about it like this, he was completely caught up in a complex air battle, and he was already fighting with consciousness and instinct, but he continued to fight fiercely with his opponent without any hesitation; Hearing the chaotic sound of the RWR system, knowing that the Americans had finally switched from watching to going into battle in person, and not knowing how many enemy planes there were in the nearby airspace, Long Yun's mind was now filled with frenzied killing intent.

No matter how much he has, these guys in front of him can simply kill as many as they can!

Compared with the previous large-scale air battles in the Caucasus, in which a single aircraft confronted dozens of enemy planes, the number of opponents in the sky at present is still very small, but the problem is that the strong support of friendly fighters cannot be counted on now: under the overall deployment in which he participated, all aviation regiments of the Red Air Force are reducing the scale of sorties, and there is no fighter in the nearby airspace that can provide shelter and cover for itself, except for the MiG-31M interceptor aircraft whose PVO maintains the interception line at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters.

Because of this, Long Yun had to leave a back hand for himself so that he could retreat with his whole body.

Thinking of this, without a trace of hesitation, the throttle valve lever was pushed forward into a high-strength maneuver, and the red No. 17 nose was raised high, and after a short sharp climb, the thrust output was suddenly reduced, and the "Sidewinder" attack of the F-16 wingman was avoided with the jamming bomb and the violent reverse dive of the overload; As the angle of the fighter's dive was constantly adjusted, the side rod was changed out and connected to the defensive barrel roll, and the repeated overload made Long Yun's vision a little blurred, but the enemy plane was already in front of him, and the back of the "Fighting Falcon" in the violent sideways rotation was like an arrow.

Although the line of sight was not in good condition, with the "Didi" prompt of the pre-energized missile, Long Yun's fingers were set as early as electricity and immediately launched, and an R-73M burst out of the pylon under the wing and flew straight in the direction of one o'clock ahead.
