The lack of confidence in the strength of the Royal Air Force is not unfounded by the generals.

After all, unlike the United States, which is far away from the ocean and has peace of mind for the time being, the United Kingdom in Western Europe is only one strait away from the fall of the mainland, and several main fighter wings of the Royal Air Force are all deployed in southern England to resist the overwhelming air offensive of the Warsaw Pact, and the main ones stationed in Asia Minor are interceptors or fighter-bombers such as the "Tornado" ADV and the F-4F "Phantom II".

These planes may be okay to bomb in the air, but it is too reluctant to drive away the Russian planes and seize air supremacy in the theater......

The generals in the command headquarters in the southern suburbs of Fancheng are still weighing the pros and cons of the military's next move.

However, on the Yerevan front, 200 kilometers away, Lieutenant Colonel Parker Good's men and horses had no time to look ahead, and in the face of the rumbling roar and shelling coming from the northern horizon, it was clear that the Russians, who had just driven them back to their positions, did not intend to rest on their laurels, and they had to make a choice immediately.

He had just spoken to the command on the phone, but had not received any valuable response, and had not even mentioned the support and logistical arrangements he had planned to ask, so Lieutenant Colonel Goode was naturally in a much better mood.

After sulking in the infantry fighting vehicle for a while, the lieutenant colonel asked the communications non-commissioned officer to contact the 7th Panzer Brigade "San Martin" and the "Leonid" Panzer Regiment in charge of the two flanks of the detour city, only to get worse news, all kinds of signs that the Russian heavy army group in northern Yerevan had attacked like a mad tiger, and the two regiments had suffered heavy losses in the encounter, and because of the extreme confusion of the battlefield, they had not received any orders from the command, and now they had clearly entered a precarious situation.

I learned that the situation had gotten so bad. Lieutenant Colonel Goode's affection immediately turned from anger to worry.

On the fifth day of Operation "Typhoon" began. Replaced the Americans as the offensive striker in the Armenian direction. The 7th Armored Brigade of the Royal Army, backed by Yerevan, theoretically had American units as its backing, but the command expected that the Russians would retreat imminently, and the offensive plan issued by the command was particularly bold.

The fact that the Russians have been in disgrace and retreating for some time would have been regarded as a joke by Parker Goode until today; However, today, these God-believing bandits did not know what means they had resorted to, and they actually blocked the air support of the coalition forces at once, which made Lieutenant Colonel Goode really unable to laugh.

It feels like the end is in an instant. He immediately ordered the whole regiment to organize a retreat, and now it was no longer possible to wait for any orders from the Americans!

Sitting in the "Samurai" infantry fighting vehicle that turned around on the spot, the lieutenant colonel regretted that he had abandoned his front-line positions and had no time to retrieve the remains of his comrades, but he now knew very well which was more important than the corpse or the living.

But isn't it, in this inexplicable world war, the glorious United Kingdom is doomed to pay a heavy price beyond its own strength as a follower of the Americans, but what can it gain from it?

Fighting on the doorstep of the Russians. Or to say that hand-to-hand combat with a polar bear directly on the ground is terrifying to think about; What now. Even the air supremacy that was said to be good had become a dead letter, and Lieutenant Colonel Goode didn't care to think about it further, anyway, now the Seventh Armored Brigade, or all the United Kingdom troops, only need to be responsible to the Central Command, and there is nothing to be ashamed of temporarily avoiding the edge in front of that bear.

With this in mind, the British armored vehicles quickly retreated along a large open field, but they did not know that their escape route was about to be completely cut off under the rapid interspersed offensive of the Soviet Seventh Guards Army; The Soviet airborne helicopters flying in the dark pressure in the sky were also about to take position, and they would be greeted by an insurmountable blocking front.

In this involuntary world war, the tired soldiers of the 7th Armored Brigade have already received a bloodstained one-way exit ticket in advance.

The drastic changes in the air made the ground battles in Transcaucasia even more brutal.

Turning to the eastern part of the Black Sea hundreds of kilometers away, above the dark blue expanse of the sea, an unprecedentedly fierce fighter duel was about to break out.

Shuttling through the flames and smoke of war, firing arrows at panicked opponents, Long Yun's White Twentieth drove westward to the airspace of Kutaisi, where a brief brawl led him to two takedowns. In the face of the Canadian Air Force CF-18 "Hornet" fighter scattered in the sky and did not have a trace of fighting spirit, his handling method was extremely simple, in the process of accelerating the flight, he casually pulled the lever to chase it, and then launched the missile, without checking whether it hit or not, directly disengaged.

In this near-raid battle, he was only briefly pushing the slope to make sure his opponent could see his landline livery from the cockpit.

For today's lift-off battle, anyway, he doesn't plan to steal the battle from his comrades, Long Yun has been implementing the tactical intention of "brushing up the sense of storage", so his battle is also extremely swift - there is no need to slash and kill indiscriminately, but as long as he hits with one blow and makes the opponent aware of the "Grim Reaper", his task will be completed smoothly.

On the first day of the anti-radiation operation, the Red Air Force was assisted in the "intimidation" method of air parade; this plan sounded like the extreme arrogance, but it was a kind of psychological deterrent with excellent results.

In Ankara, where war reports are frequently sent and the atmosphere is tense and chaotic, in the operational command room of the US Central Command, the snowflakes of "heavy losses" front-line reports have already made the commanders nervous, and the scolding of General Clark has deepened the irritability and panic in people's hearts. In such an atmosphere, the news of the "Caucasus Grim Reaper" haunting everywhere has obviously become the last straw that crushes the camel's back, and I don't believe at all that damn Russian will appear in several operational airspace hundreds or thousands of kilometers away at the same time, and not only the angry air force commander is going crazy as always, but the strategic air force commander who is also hot-tempered on the side is also shouting angry and angry.

What kind of existence is this terrible "Caucasian Grim Reaper", the lingering shadow that has hung over the heads of the coalition forces for months?

Such a haunted presence over the war zone made General Clark stare at the holographic display, and he almost had to guess that the "Grim Reaper" was not a person, but a team, otherwise how could he explain the report sent back from the front - or that the Russians were playing a trick like a disguise again, as before?

"This 'scythe'...... It's a devil!

Spencer, connect to the dedicated channel at the 'counter', and I need not only the exact location of the 'sickle', but also the location of the 'shark'! ”

Probably after staying in the command room for a long time, and having almost recovered from the previous loss of control, the general ordered his subordinates to immediately contact the "shark" who was attacking alone, and ask where this guy was now.

Now that the "Grim Reaper" has been discovered again, I can't say it, so I have to summon the "shark" to deal with it.

In the face of the completely anxious air situation, Lieutenant General Clark did not act rashly, of course he understood that stabilizing the battle situation was the first priority now, but the difficulty of this matter can be imagined how high it will be; Therefore, before finding out the mysterious help of the Russians and formulating a proper response plan, he naturally thought of another strategy - the "Grim Reaper" who had repeatedly caused the coalition air power to hit a wall and could not do anything, if he could eliminate it, or at least curb his unscrupulousness, could it also play an immediate role in the situation?

Thinking about the terrifying combat power of the "Caucasian Reaper", it may be impossible to defeat him, but even if it can temporarily delay his pace and make him unable to use his fists and feet!

It was with such an almost helpless expedient that new hope was ignited in Clark's heart, and he hurriedly called the "shark" through the guò AWACS platform, and at this time not only himself, but also the commanders of the headquarters had high hopes for this ace pilot.

As if in response to this expectation, on the shore of the vast Black Sea, the F-15S/MTD fighter plane, which was patrolling alone in the vast sky, soon received the combat order from the early warning aircraft.

The white twenty Su-27S, the landline of the "Caucasus Reaper", was soaring in the eastern sky at this time.

As if by fate, the two non-production fighters, which were enemies of each other, were initially less than 30 kilometers away from each other when they approached each other at the beginning.

In Transcaucasia, where the anti-radiation operation was in full swing and warplanes and missiles were flying across the Transcaucasia, Major Fisher, who was piloting the "Agile Eagle," had been cruising at high altitude on the side of the battle line before, and he had no comrades by his side, but at this moment he seemed to be in the midst of a stormy sea.

As far as the eye could see, there was no trace of war in the sky, and this qiē came from his intuition.

Rising from the Sivas base in the morning, Major Fisher did not encounter an R-27P/EP attack from the Soviet Air Force, and probably the lone "Agile Hawk" he piloted was not at all conspicuous on the long-range warning radar, so he was not immediately given special attention by the anti-radiation missiles. Not only that, but after taking off, the major quickly discovered one thing, the "counter", which had always maintained a one-line connection, seemed to have forgotten him for the time being, and only the number chain that automatically refreshed the air situation information was still working.
