Chapter 1114: Attack before dawn

"- Lu and Lucia, the trump card 'scythe'! Ahhh

"Scythe", nicknamed "Caucasian Reaper", Lucia's number one ace pilot Viktor Renznov!

As soon as he thought of this terrible fact, Kosuke Okada, who had just been separated from his colleagues by life and death and fell into the icy water, turned black in front of his eyes, and his legs collapsed on the deck of the "Chiyo Maru".

A chaotic battle broke out in the northern part of the Sea of Japan, and the third class air lieutenant, who was rescued by Japanese fishermen after dawn, was actually the lucky one in the whole catastrophe.

Traveling to a parallel world and attacking again as Viktor Rezenov, Long Yun's combat operation this time began at 5 a.m. Soviet Far Eastern Time, almost two hours before the winter sunrise.

Sitting on the Boeing 757 passenger plane flying to Beijing before the crossing, coming to the parallel world from a deep sleep, and being in the forward base of the Far East Linhai, Long Yun, who had countless things on his mind, did not blindly immerse himself in dizzying exploration and thinking, but quickly entered the state, and participated in combat operations as the number one ace pilot of VVS and the commander of the 210th Division of the Tenth Air Army, and put aside all those thousands of things.

Yes, no matter how many mysteries there are in the world, the battle between you and you will never stop for a moment.

It is about the parallel world, and even the overall appearance of the real world, no matter what point of view, Long Yun is well aware of the important mission he shoulders, and he must help the Eastern Camp win this protracted world war.

Especially in the current war situation, since it has chosen to attack Japan, the Red Empire, which adheres to the strategy of "quick victory", is doing its best. In the Far East, such a direction with which the strategic potential is not abundant, and NATO went head-to-head. Every day the war drags on. The situation became even more unfavorable for the Soviet side, and in recent days, the cities and industrial bases in the Far East, which had been frequently attacked, and the eastern section of the Trans-Siberian Railway, reminded Long Yun that he had no time to think about anything else at all.

Objectively required this, subjectively Long Yun's fighting spirit is also very high, the goal of "ten days to overturn JASDF" is not an empty talk, every qiē has to go to the sky battlefield to see the real chapter!

Although the idea is urgent, when the battle will start, some kind of Cheng Dù is not something he can say alone.

Just before the end of the last crossing. discussed the battle plan with the comrades-in-arms of the 239 Fighter Aviation Regiment, or his subordinates, and waited in the preparation room all day the next day, but he didn't get the order to attack from above, but Long Yun was not impatient about it.

As an ace of air combat who has been tempered for a long time, he has fought so many battles in parallel worlds, and the young man who has been promoted to the rank of senior officer of the Red Air Force knows this very well, and the form of military struggle in the Far East is very different from that of Central Europe and the Caucasus.

For the current large-scale battle across the sea, the endless Sea of Japan is the main battlefield of the contest between the enemy and the enemy, and the tactics of solo attack and hunting in such an open area, which he has been very good at before, and have done many times, are no longer effective. Both warring sides need to rely on their knowledge of the airspace in front of them to carry out their operations, and the skies over the ocean, which are almost as smooth as a mirror on a large scale. It's not that hard to do.

Since both sides are trying to monitor the entire combat airspace, this also means that if he Long Yun goes out to hang out alone, just like the air battle he just fought before, the situation will become very dangerous.

Although in the battle in which four "Devon Eagles" were shot down one after another, JASDF's F-15 fighter plane was obviously helpless against him, and presumably even the better-equipped US troops stationed in Japan could ignore it, but after all, the situation of the enemy in the dark and the clear is still full of dangers, "often walking by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet", Viktor Rezenov's sky journey is not known how long it will be, and any paralyzing carelessness is not advisable.

It is precisely for this reason that after a single plane investigation, the 239th Regiment, which had changed its tactics and tactics, was incorporated into the VVS combat system in the Far East, and the "Reaper", who had been waiting all day but had no suitable opportunity, finally received instructions after midnight and took off to the east in accordance with the instructions of the Red Air Force's ground guidance network.

As night fell, the battle never stopped, and warplanes were still flying over the Sea of Japan under the stars, fighting to the death for their respective missions.

Since the landing in the early stage of the war may be almost non-existent, with the idea of maximizing the benefits of air supremacy in the theater, the contest between attackers and interceptors has become the theme of the war symphony.

Under the cover of night, although it was not conducive to the fighters taking to the air to meet the enemy, nor was it conducive to attack the attack planes approaching the air attack, it was precisely at a time when the B-52 and B-1B strategic bombers, loaded with medium- and long-range cruise missiles such as the AGM-86C, had a great deal to do, and these sky monsters, which were either urgently deployed in the Japanese archipelago or flew from Guam, Okinawa, and other places, flew over the Sea of Japan in order to attack the deep territory of the Soviet Far East, and under the escort of the US F-15 fighters stationed in Japan, they fired death guns with thin tails at distant targets.

Correspondingly, the Red Empire on the other side of the ocean did not have much strategic depth in the Japanese archipelago, and the important targets that needed to be attacked, except for a few military bases of the Americans on the oceanic islands, were all within the strike radius of the Red Air Force's long-range aviation and even front-line aviation.

Compared with the "Alkham" missiles that secretly flew over the coastline, the Soviet Red Air Force and the Territorial Defense Force, which focused on defense at night, commanded forward fighters to intercept and sabotage NATO's air offensive, and on the other hand, hunted down US cruise missiles that crossed the border with the help of a strengthened automatic interception and guidance network, and were ready to wait until the sky was bright and it was convenient for tactical attack planes to exert their power, and then use the T-95M, The Tu-22M3 and the MiG-27 and Su-24M, including the Red Star aircraft, flooded the adversary and dropped air-launched missiles and tin bombs on the narrow Japanese archipelago.

However, large-scale sorties may have to wait for dawn, but small-scale harassment and feints are not less than ever.

The time returned to five o'clock in the morning, when most of the civilians in the Far East were asleep, in the night sky 70 nautical miles west of Sapporo City, Hokkaido, several F-15J fighters with piercing tail flames were cruising all the way at an altitude of several thousand meters, sweeping westward according to the instructions sent by the E-2C early warning aircraft in the rear, preparing to meet the Lucia fighters flying over the mainland.

The 201st Air Squadron, one of the elite Air Self-Defense Forces stationed at Sapporo Air Base, and the 106th Air Brigade stationed in Hakodate were tasked with the air defense of Hokkaido's long front, but for many days they had suffered heavy losses in high-intensity sky confrontations; However, even so, with the so-called consciousness of "the rise and fall of the country in this war", one by one JASDF pilots still took off with excitement to meet the tragic fate that may be doomed.

Rise into the air to meet the enemy, and then encounter the "Grim Reaper", and it is the same on this cold moonlit night.

An hour or two before dawn, when people are most likely to get sleepy, in the 201st F-15J fighter plane of the 201st Flight Team 932, Keiichi Yokoji, who was on a routine patrol mission, was nervous.

After switching AN/APG-63 to PDS mode, two light spots soon appeared on the radar display, approaching the middle from an altitude of 5,500 meters; Choosing one of the targets to enter continuous tracking, the experienced Yokoji Keiichi quickly judged that it was the "flanker" of the Lucia Army, and the incoming enemy plane had a speed of 450 knots and a distance of 90 kilometers!

"Call 'headquarters', call 'headquarters', and identify the target as the 'flanker' of the Lucia Army, which is expected to ...... After two minutes, enter the visual distance contact, please remove the restriction on friend or foe; Repeat, it is expected to enter the line-of-sight contact after two minutes, please remove the identification restrictions, and the call is over! ”

"'Ninety-three-two', 'ninety-three-two', the number of jù under the chain is over, the identification restriction is lifted, and the attack is allowed! The call ended. ”

After a short air contact, the information sent by the logarithmic chain was further confirmed, and in the sky over the Japan Sea, where the theater of operations was clearly defined, the F-15J of the IF interception operation was basically a kind of decoration, and the air captain Yokoji immediately switched channels, called the wingman to follow him to accelerate the climb, and prepared to use the AIM-7M missile to intercept head-on, and then ordered another group of two planes to occupy the rear position to guard against possible infiltration and sneak attack by the Lucia army.

Since the beginning of the war, in the face of the powerful and ferocious Lucia Red Star Air Force, especially the terrible "White Death" Victor, the 201st Flying Team has lost valuable fighters and pilots almost every day.

It has only been a week since the start of the war, and the sortie rate of the flying team has fallen to less than 50%, and the ability to maintain an interception force of four F-15Js in the airspace west of Sapporo is almost the limit of this elite team's capabilities. There are only a few "Devon Eagles", but they have to deal with the overwhelming Lucia fighters coming in front of him, and Yokoji Keiichi's arrangements are quite thorough, and he did not rashly mobilize all the interception forces, which is naturally justified.

Isn't it, how many days of combat experience, these Siberians are clearly fierce and cunning.

In the face of JASDF's all-out interception, the hateful Lucia Army will often send one or two RCS large "flankers" to provoke and fish at medium and high altitudes, while the rest of the fighters will be full of bombs and rush from low altitudes; The Self-Defense Forces, which have a limited number of fighters and are too busy to take care of the future, have been frequently attacked, and Chitose City, which was bombed by an air raid two days ago, and even the warning radar station of the Mi Army was bombed to the ground.
