Stopping air strikes by FIAF fighters is naturally a top priority for NATA.

However, for Long Yun, who had just stepped into the battlefield, now that he had encountered so many enemy planes at once, if he could, of course he also wanted to pursue a little higher.

The maneuvering performance of the Su-27 series fighters has been so familiar that it can no longer be familiar, and the appropriate forward throttle valve supplements the storage speed consumption of continuous side rotation, and Long Yun's interspersed flight on the side of the battle line has indeed produced an effect: at this time, the four Mirage 2000Ds with low-altitude steering are no longer in their original positions, in fact, they are flying a little further north, which is clearly a posture of bombing in the air behind enemy lines.

FIAF pilots are not warriors who talk and laugh at death, they do so out of absolute confidence in air supremacy.

Although in the past month or so, in the vast sky north of Tikrit, there will be a terrible figure of the blue Sukhoi fighter plane from time to time, and all the fighters that encounter this guy are basically unlucky and never land after taking off, but the Liberal pilots are very clear that this kind of top-notch air combat veteran is also a very small number of foreign pilots hired by the new party in NATA, and it does not represent how high the overall level of NATA is.

With the deterioration of the Middle East's situation, the ECJA is now also running this troubled water, and it is conceivable how busy the air power of the New Party will be, and one or two fighter jets piloted by top pilots will not be able to set off any strong winds and waves.

Anyway, if you want to talk about air battles, there are many opportunities on your side. There are also friendly fighters responsible for interception at medium and high altitudes, right?

With that in mind. Four Mirage 2000Ds flew in dense formations over a large and gently undulating inland desert. Maintaining an altitude of less than 500 meters and continuing to advance northward, this happened to act as a bait for the high-altitude Mirage 2000C fighter to lure the enemy; Sitting in the single-seat "Mirage" fighter, the lieutenant colonel pilot who piloted the captain of the plane stared at the display screen with his eyes, and he saw that the altitude of the NATA fighter flying over from the opposite side was constantly decreasing.

This kind of speculation, if placed on the average level of Iraqi pilots, is probably quite reasonable. However, considering that there were still a few experienced hired pilots in NATA, the lieutenant colonel felt that it was better to be careful in everything, so he immediately connected the channel and ordered the C-3 and C-4 fighters rushing in front to carry out over-the-horizon interception, and then flanked the left and right together with the wingman who went to the other side of the target, and tried to kill the opponent at once.

After receiving the lieutenant colonel's order, the pilots of the C-3 and C-4 fighters had already prepared for missile launches, and the distance between the enemy and the enemy was less than 30 kilometers at this time, which was already an acceptable launch distance for the R530D over-the-horizon missile mounted on the Mirage 2000C.

The button is pressed. The missile is detached from the pylon; Ignited in the air and accelerated away, dragging the smoke straight away, the stout missile quickly became smaller in the pilot's sight, and then disappeared. The young man who piloted the fighter plane did not forget to shout in the channel:

"-- Two R530s, missile launch!"

According to the command of the lieutenant colonel, the Mirage 2000C fighter that intercepted it head-on, and the semi-active radar-guided missile was ignited on the road.

In the sky thirty kilometers away from them, Long Yun, who was constantly illuminated by the radar, was still accelerating and diving, as if he was unaware of the radar signal on his body, and he had now pursued the enemy plane less than ten kilometers away, and had already used human eyes to distinguish the approximate model of the target plane.

Large swept delta wing, single vertical tail, single engine, combined with the introduction of the air force equipment of the Middle East countries that I have seen before, this is the Mirage 2000 in the hands of the Iraqi Freedom Party, right?

To say that the Mirage 2000 fighter, as one of the achievements of the French defense industry's self-contained system, due to its reasonable design, low use price, and relatively good performance, it has achieved quite good export results in the international market, and a large part of it is sold to the Middle East. Up to now, due to the blossoming and soaring popularity of aviation competitions, there are more and more cases of private procurement of fighters, so Dassault has restarted the production line of the Mirage 2000 series fighters, and the total production of this model has already exceeded the early statistics of 612 aircraft.

In the Middle East, where many air forces are equipped or have been equipped with Mirage 2000 fighters, this kind of light fighter is quite easy to obtain, both in terms of complete aircraft and accessories, and the maintenance requirements are not too high, and the combat effectiveness basically meets the requirements.

As soon as the civil war broke out, the Al-Aqsa wing immediately became one of the main forces of the FIAF, at least until the arrival of more advanced fighters.

During the pursuit, Long Yun was not surprised to see that the Liberal fighter plane was a Mirage 2000.

Originally, there was a lot of this kind of fighter in stock in the Middle East, and now that the civilian fighter plane trade is very frequent, it is not at all surprising for the Liberal regime to get some third-generation fighter jets.

Now he needs to think about another thing, that is, what kind of tactics to use in the face of such a mediocre technical level, but quite small and agile light fighter, in order to gain an advantage. This question, many years ago, the PLA Air Force must have done a lot of research, how to use the Su-27SK against the Mirage 2000-5 across the strait, which is really similar to the current situation.

However, unlike the Su-27SK against the Mirage 2000-5, now the superiority and inferiority of the missile weapons of both the enemy and the enemy can be said to be exactly the opposite.

Recall that at the beginning of this century, when the strait-shaped shì tended to be tense, the Su-27SK fighters equipped with the mainland were still equipped with over-the-horizon weapons as standard with semi-active radar / infrared guidance R-27R/T, while the Mirage 2000-5 across the strait was equipped with an active radar / infrared guided MICA; Although the latter has a smaller missile body and a smaller missile range due to the deviation of the design concept, it still has to occupy a certain advantage in the overall comparison.

As for the combat missile, the R-73 has its own advantages and disadvantages compared with the "Magic", and the disadvantage of the latter is still the low range.

But now, flying a Sukhoi fighter plane in the skies over Iraq encountered the Mirage 2000C/D, although Long Yun does not know the specific sub-model of the enemy aircraft, and has no way of knowing whether they can use active radar-type MICA missiles, whether it is MICA or R530D, they are at a disadvantage in front of the R-77.

However, the results of theoretical analysis may not be effective when put into actual combat.

Even now, Long Yun, who was piloted from the rear of the Mirage 2000D fleet, still heard the RWR ringing non-stop, since he had gone around to the rear hemisphere of the four enemy planes, but was still warned by the radar, then the enemy planes behind him were still locking onto him, and it was estimated that the opponent's over-the-horizon missiles would soon fly over.

In the past air battles, in the face of over-the-horizon missiles from the sky, the daring Long Yun would generally choose to climb and avoid according to the situation, so that he could keep enough energy reserves after getting rid of the attack in order to deal with the next hand-to-hand combat. However, now that he is setting foot in the Middle East battlefield for the first time, considering the level of NATA's support, he still chooses to further dive down to avoid altitude - otherwise, if he presses a button, interferes with the chaff or something at the last moment, and can't spill it, then he will be in big trouble.

Determined to carry out the combat intent of "showing and storing zài" to the end, Long Yun's movements were very fast, and he looked back while kicking the rudder and buckling the fuselage, and the fierce dive of the fighter's belly towards the sky made him look black in front of him.

Diving all the way from a medium altitude to an ultra-low-altitude evasion missile is actually competing with who flies faster; Hearing the RWR warning, there has been no special change, and the dark and misty Long Yun in front of him is relieved to be sure that it is not the active bomb that is chasing behind his ass, so he casually connected a serpentine maneuver in the reverse dive, and the silence in the cockpit was restored.

Sure enough, the RDM/RDI series radar performance of the Mirage 2000 fighter is just like that, and once the target flies into the cover of ground clutter, it is very common for it to be shaken off the lock.

For semi-active bombs that rely on the radar of the carrier aircraft, unless it is bad luck to burst, a throwoff can basically be directly ignored, Long Yun saw that the ground above his head was gradually accelerating down, and hurriedly changed the side rod from the dive, at this time he had already relied on his speed advantage to come to the low altitude behind the four "Phantom" fighters, but the altitude was much lower than them.

This swooping pursuit not only shook off the missiles of the fighters behind, but also startled several Liberal fighters in front.

Although they have carried out many missions in the Middle East sky, but there is still not enough judgment on the enemy, the FIAF pilots are busy responding, Long Yun just flattened the fighters, and he saw a strange scene in the sky: the four "Phantoms" that were still on the radar to keep together in formation had already fled separately at this time, and while flying wildly, they kept throwing bombs and auxiliary fuel tanks, and now they don't say whether they can be knocked down, at least the task of interfering with the air raid has been completed.

Then the next step is to attack with all your strength and simply take down these fighters!

With the idea of hitting the enemy, Long Yun was already operating quickly in his hands, and at the same time thinking about how to assign R-77 or R-73E to the target, but at this time, the radio that had been silent suddenly sounded, and when he heard the sound coming out of the headphones, Long Yun was a little out of control on the spot, and his hand shook:

"Hey, where are you, Wingman? - Hurry up and write down the coordinates 32 and 57, where people are stupid and money comes quickly! (To be continued......)
