Piloting the MiG-29M against the J-10 "Raptor", he knows the performance of the two models well, and Long Yun, who is cruising at an altitude of less than 3,000 meters, cautiously moves forward, while scanning the sky and paying attention to the movement of the radar alarm, he raised his hand to press the button and throw away the two R-27Rs that don't seem to be of much use, but he didn't do it after thinking about it.

Yes, since it is a confrontation drill intended for communication, it seems that it is not a typical engagement method for the MiG-29 to throw away over-the-horizon missiles and rush to fight, now do you want to turn on the radar and take a look?

N019M, a pulse Doppler fire control radar equipped with an improved MiG machine, the specifications are as the model says (again, N019 does not refer to the radar, but the antenna model in the whole system), it is a slight improvement on the basis of the N019 of the inverted Cassegren antenna, and the performance is not much improved compared with the original, and it is certainly not as obvious as the change from N001 to N011, and it is also completely in line with the positioning of the MiG-29 itself in the VVS.

After all, a front-line fighter with tens of thousands of equipment is not worth it and does not need a sophisticated fire control system, as is the case with the Blue 09 piloted by Long Yun, and the N019M still supports tracking four targets at the same time and guiding the R-27R/T to attack one of them, and that's it.

He is not sure about the development of China's airborne fire control radar in the parallel world, and he does not know what the "1473" flat slit array antenna radar from Nanjing 14 Institute is, whether it can be the same as the 1473 in the real world - but since he is in the middle of the confrontation, it makes little sense to consider these now. He quickly decided on an engagement strategy. Call the wingman on the radio. Instructed Blue 11 to "fight to their own".

Accustomed to being alone, and now with his wingman, Long Yun quickly awakened the long-lost rhythm of battle.

The battle of piloting the MIG-29, in the period when he had just crossed into a parallel world, was the main activity of Captain Viktor Rezenov, and it was the front-line fighter with good performance indicators who accepted the baptism of the world war, Long Yun became the ace pilot of the VVS as Viktor, and was promoted to lieutenant colonel of the aviation army twice in a row. It was not until he was received by General Secretary Malenkov in Moscow and received a new assignment that he switched to the Caucasus to control the more powerful Su-27 operation.

In retrospect, it was only half a year since that period of piloting planes to fight in the sky and sweeping NATO's tactical air force in the skies of Central Europe.

However, after experiencing this qiē in the war, fighting every day, the sense of the passage of time gradually became blurred, and now in the slightly cramped cockpit of the MiG plane, Long Yun recalled the past, and in a trance, he felt that it seemed to be a long time ago. Although every killing moment in the fierce battle in the sky is still so vivid.

From a captain in aviation, to now a lieutenant general in VVS aviation. Since embarking on the road of war, I have come so far before I know it......

Inadvertently recalling the past, his finger pulled open the electric door, and a green point of light soon appeared on the radar display, but the target was not found for a long time, Long Yun raised his hand to set the working mode of N019M, and his thoughts quickly returned to reality, and there was still silence in the cockpit for the time being, which made him realize a little disadvantage of the MiG aircraft in this confrontation.

In this two-on-two battle, just like the aviation competition in the real world, the MiG-29M is not supported by the system.

Since World War II, the military construction of the socialist camp countries has been more or less affected by the Soviet Air Force and the Territorial Air Defense, on the one hand, the combat strategy is close, on the other hand, it is also restricted by the technical level, including the vast majority of countries, including China, the Air Force attaches the same importance to the support of the ground guidance system as VVS and PVO. Fighters, which are mainly responsible for air defense, are also accustomed to engaging in the GCI system.

However, even if the principles are similar, the specific situation varies from country to country.

The same GCI guidance, from a simple ground radar search and tracking, radio operator call command, to a complete set of fully automatic ground guidance system, the technical span is also very large; In the Cold War era in the real world, the most skillful use of GCI was the Red Empire, and the ground command and guidance system (for VVS) and automatic interception and guidance network (for PVO) built at a huge cost had a high automation process, system capacity and attack resistance, which could provide perfect combat support for the huge Soviet air armed forces.

Specific to the situation of VVS, it is highly dependent on GCI, and this MiG-29M that Long Yun is driving now is like this.

Like the MiG-29 he used before, the MiG's relatively simple electronic equipment has a high dependence on the GCI guidance system, although the combat mode of the Red Air Force requires the pilot to have a certain degree of autonomy, and the VVS fighter is generally not like its PVO counterparts, often even launching missiles by the system, but the so-called "autonomous", that is also after the BVR, over-the-horizon combat, the MiG-29 does not have much "habit" to complete independently.

Just like now, Long Yun, who adjusted the N019M working mode, encountered a little problem, in the absence of GCI, he could only rely on the landline to search for targets by himself, and the disadvantage of radar scanning speed was reflected little by little.

Soon after turning on the radar, he barely captured a target with an altitude difference of about two kilometers, Long Yun pressed the switch and switched to high-precision tracking mode, he was about to activate two R-27Rs, but through RWR, he detected the X-band high PRF pulse from the clear sky, so he quickly chose to exit the tracking mode, and at the same time pull the rod and open the afterburner, and enter a steep slope and a large angle of attack to climb in the direction of the target.

In the case of a high disadvantage, the opponent is detected by the opponent because of radar tracking, and the next over-the-horizon missile collision will be unfavorable to the MiG-29M, of course, he will not make such a low-level mistake.

The blue 09 was climbing strongly, and another gray-green MiG at low altitude was also changing positions, and the battle situation quickly changed.

It was originally a two-on-two two-plane confrontation, and after receiving the instructions of Lieutenant General Rezenov to "engage cheaply", the aviation colonel who piloted the Blue 11 was not surprised at all - the fighting style of the "Caucasian Reaper" was almost well known, and he quickly flew the plane to shake off the over-the-horizon attack of the "Raptor", and then entered a fast-paced hand-to-hand combat with a J-10 that swooped down at a low altitude.

The MiG-29M vs. J-10, a fierce collision between two different design ideas, is undoubtedly extremely valuable.

In 1997, due to the limitations of science and technology, there were no all-round display methods like in the real aviation arena, and the personnel on both sides who could not see the real-time battle situation could not see the real-time battle situation, except for going to the radar station to see the display screen, it was a fierce battle watching the sky from the ground; Probably because of this consideration, the two fighters painted with the red five stars and the Bayi insignia will fight each other at a low altitude, so that it is convenient for the ground personnel to observe the scene.

After the two groups of fighters attacked one after another, they drove to a large open area near the base, where the commanders and fighters of the Chinese and Soviet sides were waiting eagerly to observe the air situation.

In the clear sky, a string of engines roared farther and closer, and almost simultaneously appeared fighters chasing each other with heavy white trails; The huge body of the metal structure looks like a light bird from the ground, but every time it swoops and dodges, it looks so thrilling.

A wave of BVR attacks and the exhaustion of two PL-11 missiles, Major Wang Weiguo, who dives into the enemy, intends to fight quickly.

Directly from the BVR into the visual air combat, he drove all the way to the low-altitude MiG, launched a plunder attack at a speed of 1,100 km/h, and a large cloud of smoke and dust rose from under the wings of the "Raptor" that rushed to the air, and orange PL-8 arrows shot out -- of course, this was just a training bomb without wings and rudder surfaces, and whether the attack was effective or not depended on the comprehensive judgment of the ground command station.

After the missile was launched, a gray-green figure in the field of vision quickly moved, releasing a large puff of infrared jamming bombs and turning sharply to the right, entering a sharp maneuver similar to a broken S.

As soon as he saw the signs of the MiG-29M's movements, he predicted that it would be difficult for the machine to follow, and the major originally planned to calculate the plan, but his hand had already touched the speed brake switch, and after a little thought, he turned to pull the rod and push the throttle valve forward, and the fierce "Raptor" entered the climb with a large loop, and used high yoyo to avoid rushing too far through the low-altitude target.

In the face of the MIG-29M, which is dominant on the SEP, it is not wise to blindly slow down and reduce the altitude to fight at low altitudes, and Wang Weiguo's response is to maintain energy superiority and try to induce the opponent to enter the J-10's maneuvering advantage zone; Although the PLAF side is shrewd in calculation, and the VVS colonel, who is well versed in the short length of the landline, will not take the bait lightly, and after breaking the S, the Blue 11, which adjusted its course and maintained a speed of 600 kilometers, immediately launched two R-27R to return fire, but was easily thrown off by the "Raptor", which had long been prepared and was not at all short on energy, with a serpentine maneuver.

Plundering and counter-raiding, a round did not distinguish the winner or loser, and then the two fighters invariably entered the circle, but one was intended to pounce, the other was inclined to defense, and the powerful MiG did not rush to climb up, and a single-ring head-on battle with a large height difference broke out immediately.
