Chapter 57: The Warthog's Nightmare
The scene of the missile salvo was indeed very spectacular.
After completing the complicated missile launch operations continuously, the button was constantly pressed, and Long Yun could only see the bright missile tail flame flashing in his sight, disappearing in the direction of the enemy aircraft formation like a spirit.
In just a few seconds, there was an unexpected explosion in the distance: puff after puff, large balls of fireballs rose up, and he saw this qiē as he slowed down in a steep slope, and he achieved three results almost in an instant, except for one R-73, which may have lost its target due to seeker failure.
Three results?
- Oh, not really.
After completing the turn, Long Yun not only caught a glimpse of the high-altitude NATO fighter planes that were dividing their forces and pressing on him, but was also surprised to find that the unlucky "warthogs" just now, in addition to the torches that fell to the ground, three of them were still struggling to fly in the air.
Although from a distance, the pilot of one of the planes should have ejected and escaped, and the trajectory of the fighter plane that lost control was already disordered, and sooner or later it would hit the ground and crash; But there was another one that seemed to be less injured, still struggling to keep up with the lucky guy who was not named by the missile in front of him, desperately fleeing westward.
Sure enough, as the A-10, which is specially designed to hit ground targets and is designed with intensive fire in mind, battlefield survivability can be said to be quite strong.
The A-10 attack aircraft, a special type of aircraft developed by the US FairChild company for the military and nicknamed the "Warthog," has been equipped with hundreds of units in the US Air Force since it entered service in 1975 and is an important part of the European defense system.
Focused on low-speed attacks on ground targets, the A-10 has a straight wing and a staggering maximum bomb load of more than seven tons, and occupies an important place in the battle plan against the Warsaw Pact armored group.
In order to carry out the task in the high-intensity anti-aircraft fire of the Warsaw Pact, the fuselage was protected by armor in many places, and the weight for protection reached 550 kilograms, which was said to be able to withstand the blows of Soviet-made 23-mm cannons; In addition, the two engines are suspended separately at the rear of the fuselage, and the survivability is indeed much stronger than that of ordinary aircraft.
After being hit by Long Yun's missiles, although the R-73 is advanced and the warhead weighs only nearly eight kilograms, it seems that the injured A-10 was not directly hit by the engine, so it can continue to fly.
When they were attacked just now, these clumsy "warthogs" threw their mounted missiles and bombs in a panic and threw them everywhere in all directions, and now the ground is bursting one after another with explosive flames of ammunition hitting the earth, and I don't know where the farmland and even the buildings have fallen into bad luck.
If you do this on the soil of the Federal Republic of Germany, you will be strongly protested by your friends in normal times, but now it is important to flee for your life, and the Americans certainly can't care so much.
Seeing that the "warthogs" fleeing together continued to run wildly in the sky, Long Yun no longer had missiles, and he entered the attack posture again and prepared to use the aerial artillery. The results are just around the corner, do you want to escape home?
If you want to go, it's not that easy!
On the way into the attack route, flexibly dodging another raid by the enemy plane, Long Yun stuck out his tongue quite naughtily, and drove the fighter plane to continue to chase the "warthog" in front. In his busyness, he also looked up, the F-16 that attacked him just now-
Don't you see that I don't have any missiles anymore?
Seeing that he was still struggling to pull up and pull up like that, and the entire plane was surrounded by hazy white fog and flowing smoke caused by violent movements, Long Yun was almost worried that he was going to break up his plane.
Without the heart to pay attention to the panicked fool, Long Yun's eyes fell back on the flat display.
Fortunately, I brought enough shells today, and I didn't shoot down one or two of them, and I was embarrassed to say hello to the ground crew when I went back.
The A-10, which had just escaped from Long Yun's missile bombardment and was smoky with white smoke on its body, abandoned all its plug-ins, and was desperately accelerating to escape at this time, but how could the innate design that focused on low-speed performance be compensated for by desperate acceleration? After a few seconds, Long Yun, who had entered a small-angle dive, caught up with the ugly guy who was smoking, and steadily put the figure of the "warthog" that was still clumsy sideways to avoid it into the head-up shooting aiming ring, and fired a series of shells sharply.
The close-range strafing of the 30mm cannon was no longer something the A-10 could withstand.
Originally, the physique of the "Warthog" was quite strong, but the armor was mainly in the belly and cockpit, and the defense against ground fire was of course good, but it was powerless in the face of the aerial artillery shells attacking from above.
At that time, when the Americans designed this kind of aircraft, they probably felt that it was a sure thing for their side to obtain air supremacy, and after the start of the war, they only needed to sweep away the opponent's air power, and then they could release these "warthogs" to go on a rampage in the sky; Who would have thought that now that they really started a war with the Warsaw Pact, they could only flee under the death attack of the Warsaw Pact fighters without the cover of the fighters, and there was nowhere to survive?
The 30-millimeter projectile with tracer light flew away in the field of vision, like a thin whip with fire on a writhing and struggling enemy plane, and the dazzling explosion flashed, only the wreckage that became two pieces and scattered in the air with a large number of fragments, apparently the fuel tank in the plane was hit and caused the explosion.
The third result!
Long Yun, who completed the hat-trick, did not slack off, and he continued to rush forward with strength, chasing down the last lone A-10.
Probably shocked by Long Yun's continuous attacks, another NATO F-16 broke away from the high-altitude dogfight and joined the ranks to intercept Long Yun. On the way to accelerate the dive, the F-16 tried to attack Long Yun again, and the bullet marks of the aircraft gun flashed not far away, but Long Yun still ignored it.
Now he only has the A-10 that is still desperately fleeing, and what the missiles can't do, then use the cannon to solve it!
The target was getting closer and closer, and he could almost see the signs on the fuselage, Long Yun stabilized the course of the landline and fired the gun fire button again.
Using a cannon to strafe Long Yun was fruitless, and by the time the intercepted F-16 completed its rotation after pulling up, Long Yun had already used more than 30 shells to decapitate the only remaining A-10 in the air; It is estimated that the pilot, who had been shot and died, did not even have any signs of ejection, and fell directly to the ground with the runaway plane. The A-10's proud bathtub-shaped armored cockpit did not save his life, and he had no choice but to turn into a coffin in the air, hoping to leave a whole body in the fall.
There is no need to observe the results of the battle, Long Yun, who was chased and entangled by two F-16s, must quickly maneuver to get rid of it, and at this time it was another AIM-9 stabbing to kill, but once again there was no danger of becoming a useless thing thrown off by Long Yun.
Looking back at the two sharp figures still flying in the sky, Long Yun's eyes showed a fierce desire to fight.
It's the old rival F-16 again, isn't it?
Are they all here to die?
