The nuclear bomb attack was clearly a move to trigger a nuclear war, and at first glance it really scared Sean a lot.

Unlike the older generation born after World War II, Sean Phelps, who was born and raised before and after the Vietnam War, no longer has a deep sense of awe for atomic weapons, but has a more thorough understanding of nuclear weapons and nuclear war. Now that they are going to launch a nuclear attack on the Russians, his mood will naturally fluctuate violently, which is seen by the general, but this is not surprising to him.

As a veteran who has been in the Navy for many years, if he can't convince the two hairy boys in front of him to carry out this mission for the United States, then wouldn't he be in vain?

Under the lieutenant general's half-explanation, half-threatening words, Sean and his partner finally reluctantly accepted the dangerous combat mission, after all, it is a time of war, and it is okay to think about such a thing as disobedience before the battle, and it is absolutely impossible to do it. But even so, Sean was still very worried about this mission, or he had a bad premonition, such an unusual combat mission would definitely not be as simple as the general said.

If nothing else, let's just say that the "immortal bird" with a nuclear warhead is really okay?

Although they are sitting in a metal fighter, Sean does not think that the nuclear warhead of the "Immortal Bird" missile will have any perfect shielding measures; And with such two extremely dangerous missiles flying at high speed in the sky, providing irradiation guidance for more than 30 seconds after the missile is launched, this kind of thing is easy to say, but can it really deal with the "Caucasian Grim Reaper"?

With a wealth of combat experience and the necessary knowledge of weapons, Sean certainly knows that this is not that simple.

Speaking only of the capabilities of the AIM-54 "Immortal Bird" missile, he is very clear, and it can carry out a turning maneuver of up to 17G at typical combat altitude and speed; This kind of maneuverability is perfectly capable of dealing with the Russians' long-range bombers, but it is a bit inadequate to deal with high-maneuvering targets. He and his wingman had suffered the loss of this "Caucasian Reaper" before, and he seemed to be not afraid of over-the-horizon missile attacks at all, does it mean that this Russian can use maneuver and electronic countermeasures to deal with any threat from AIM-7 "Sparrow" missiles?

The maneuverability of the AIM-7 series missiles is actually stronger than that of the AIM-54 at a low altitude of several thousand meters, and if the "sparrow" can't catch up with the Russian, then how can the "immortal bird" hit?

Even if a nuclear warhead with a killing radius of more than several hundred meters and a power that is perverted among air-to-air missiles, the missile needs to approach the target and then activate the fuse to detonate the warhead; If the missile just can't get close to the target and can't activate the fuse, then the warhead is useless, no matter how powerful it is.

With such a question, Sean raised his own question, but was sent back by the general in three or two sentences:

"This is not a problem, the matching fuse of the C-type 'Immortal Bird' missile is not the same. As long as it can fly within 200 meters of the target, it will naturally detonate. ”

What does it mean, these AIM-54C, with a long-range detonation fuse installed?

-- Wouldn't such a perverted fuse be extremely dangerous if there was a safety anomaly?

However, I am worried that since the above requires such a combat mission, as a pilot, I can only obey orders. As for what kind of consequences will be caused by the reckless use of tactics and weapons in war, this is not something that he can be responsible for as a front-line combatant and does not want to think about it.

Thinking like this, the F-14D continued to accelerate to engage the enemy, and at the same time alerted the wingman to the intercepted target, and the intercepted target reading given on the radar display was eighty-six, which was already very close to the launch distance of the AIM-54C!

With his palms gripping the joystick, Sean struggled to convince himself to calm down, and now the F-14, with its 70-degree sweep angle, was like a large arrow flying in the air, and the pneumatic control characteristics became unstable. Despite this, the F-14 "Tomcat" twin planes, which accelerated to Mach 1.6, still maintained a high-speed attitude to engage the enemy, and stabbed straight north at a high altitude with thin air.

The reason for maintaining such a high flight speed is that this is the only way to provide the AIM-54C with the highest possible initial launch conditions, so that the missiles can encounter the target as much as possible, so that they can also end the irradiation guidance earlier, and then make a sharp turn and escape.

After all, what they are going to deal with in this attack is the "Caucasian Grim Reaper", and it is not an exaggeration to overestimate the combat strength of that guy!

In this way, maintaining a high-speed attitude to catch the enemy and flying quickly, Sean's hand holding the joystick was already sweating, and he felt very uncomfortable in his gloves. Although he knew that their target, that terrible guy was still dozens of kilometers away, but this time he was not engaged in close combat like last time, but was going to use nuclear missiles to attack the Russians!

For ordinary missiles, it doesn't matter whether the launch is successful or not, anyway, after the launch and ignition, there is no intersection with the carrier aircraft; However, for the AIM-54C missile equipped with a nuclear warhead, if the launch link is slightly worse and the missile is detonated early, the carrier aircraft will be finished.

Closer, closer!

The Russian fighter with the AN/APG-71 radar firmly focused on it is also approaching, and the distance information on the display screen has reached 82 kilometers, at this time, the target should be locked, and the missile salvo should be carried out after being ready for launch!

With a nervous mood, Major Sean put aside those doubts and nervousness, contacted the command center on the radio to confirm the launch command, and then prepared to attack. Although he was not sure until this time, as a soldier and obeying orders, the act of firing nuclear weapons would really help the current war situation, or whether it would allow the United States to break free from the quagmire of war, but he did not allow him to think too much about it.

The baptism of missiles over the Black Sea jumped into his mind, and Sean simply gritted his teeth in resentment, leaving those bitter battle memories behind for the time being, leaving only unconvinced negative feelings wandering in his consciousness; In the face of the terrible trump card that had plotted against himself and his wingman, his original worries had now drifted away without a trace, and his fingers had unconsciously put on the missile launch button.

Damn Russians, "the Grim Reaper of the Caucasus", I want to see how good you really are?

Is it powerful enough to ignore the attack of the "Immortal Bird" missile and escape the detonation of a nuclear warhead?
