"The tracking jamming is complete, their communication should have been interrupted, what next?"

In the cockpit of the J-10D, Yu Lin'an calmly reported the situation to the ground.

In fact, he was a little caught off guard by such an unexpected situation during the test, especially since this time they caught a big fish!

EC-130H, the world's largest, most advanced and most sophisticated electronic warfare aircraft.

It's not just a complement to the EA-6B, it's a one-of-a-kind airborne electronic warfare platform with great potential for retrofit.

In the case of fighter escort, it is almost invincible for air defense systems of certain effects.

The only drawback is that it's too big and flies too slowly.

If you can take this plane down as well.

It doesn't seem to work.

At present, the position of the two sides is over the high seas, and the behavior of letting the other side make a forced landing if they disagree is really too hooligan.

Not only will the US not give up easily, but even international public opinion will not be able to accept it.

After all, no one wants their country's planes to be ambushed when they go out in the airspace in the future.

That's no different from going to war.

Looks like they're lucky this time.

At this moment, a reply from the ground tower came from the headset.

"Turn off the radar interference, keep the electromagnetic interference on, and wait for them to turn back before leaving."

"Pay attention to keep your distance, after the communication is lost, they should have escort fighters take off, don't clash with them."

"Understood."

Yu Lin'an opened his mouth to answer, and then he gradually turned off some of the functions of the J-10D interference pod, and began to pull up the altitude, preparing to disengage.

But at this moment, he suddenly found that the height of the EC-130H on the opposite side suddenly began to decline rapidly.

"Osprey, what's the situation? Their flight is not normal. ”

Yu Lin'an asked the wingman.

"Dolphin, I don't know, I can already see the other party's plane, but from the outside, the other party is not abnormal."

"The engine is working normally, and the body is not damaged, maybe you want to get rid of interference at a low altitude?"

"Shouldn't it, isn't our radar jamming turned off?"

Yu Lin'an asked suspiciously.

"Do you want to ask if you want to ask the public channel if it's closed?"

"Forget it, wait, maybe it's just a normal decline."

"Roger, keep tracking. It's better not to have a problem with the engine, which is so far away that they can't fly back."

As he spoke, the two J-10 changed their speed at the same time, quickly closing the distance between them and the EC-130H.

At the same time, the cockpit of the EC-130H has fallen into chaos.

"What's going on? Are we surrounded? ”

"What about airplanes? And what about their planes? ”

"Why did the flying squadron disappear just now? Is it radar interference? Are those planes real? ”

"I don't know, the radio altitude data is distorted, the barometric altitude data is normal. It should be radar interference. ”

"Fuck, we're descending too fast, pull up, pull up!"

Wren gave the order impatiently, and all the crew members scrambled to carry out the operation, and finally, when the altitude dropped to only 1,000 meters, the plane finally stabilized.

He let out a long sigh of relief, almost slumping into his seat.

The scene just now really frightened him.

More than a dozen flying units appeared on the radar VSD inexplicably, and all of them were within 20 kilometers of their own side.

In high-speed cruising conditions, crossing such a distance is almost a blink of an eye.

At first, he thought it was a cruise missile, but after re-examining the radar screen, he quickly ruled it out.

Well, it's an airplane.

But if it is really an airplane, then the other party is obviously coming for itself, and once it falls into their encirclement, the situation is definitely not optimistic.

So, he didn't have time to think about it, and immediately gave the order for an emergency descent, but at this very moment, all the flying units on the radar screen disappeared.

Only then did he realize that it was not an airplane at all, but purely an abnormal echo after the radar signal was interfered with.

In other words, there is nothing there, they just scare themselves.

Since when have you become so timid?

Looking at the two targets clearly displayed on VSD, he felt both ridiculous and helpless.

There is no doubt that this time his luck was really bad, and he actually collided with the opponent's electronic jamming fighter so coincidentally in such a mission.

Moreover, the strength of the opponent in electronic warfare is obviously much stronger than its own EC-130H.

Even, the other party can use the tracking jamming mode to directly block their own frequency hopping communication!

Such a method, even in its own country, is only at the stage of small-scale experimentation.

How did they do it?

Obviously, a few months ago, they didn't have the ability to interfere with electronics.

But in the past few months, they have been able to form a comprehensive suppression of themselves.

Could it really be because of those EA-6Bs?

But even if they do get the jamming pod, it will take time to absorb the application

At this moment, he finally realized the horror of his opponent.

"Check the course and prepare to return. Has communication been restored? ”

Wren asked.

"The course is wrong, it is being corrected, and I will return immediately."

"Communication is not restored, I am turning up the frequency hopping communication channel range, but it doesn't seem to work, the other party's tracking is very agile, we can't escape."

Hawke on the other side replied helplessly.

This was the first time he had encountered such a strong electromagnetic interference, and before that, even in his own internal confrontation drills, he had not been so embarrassed.

"Shit, if I knew that we should have sent the FA-18 to escort me, I knew that this mission would not go well"

"Don't complain so much, pull up the height, and get out of it quickly."

"They didn't plan to keep us, it should have been just a warning"

Hearing Wren's words, Hawke immediately pulled the joystick, and then, the EC-130H began to slowly rise with its massive body in tow.

But at this moment, a huge crashing sound suddenly entered the cabin, and then, the entire fuselage began to shake violently!

"What's the situation?!"

The warning lights in the cabin flickered wildly, and Wren looked around frantically, trying to make sense of what was happening.

Hit by a missile?

What are you kidding, the other party didn't turn on the fire control radar at all!

"The engine is damaged! The propeller of the second engine on the right is broken! The two engines on the right are scrapped! ”

A cold sweat broke out on Hawke's head, and it was definitely the last thing he wanted to see.

He had long doubted the safety of this aircraft engine, after all, it was not once or twice that this type of aircraft had an accident.

In just one year, he was aware of three C-130s grounded because of propeller problems.

But fortunately, their problems are all found on the ground.

But now, I'm in heaven!

Before takeoff, he raised the issue of propeller oil leakage with the ground crew.

But the ground crew didn't care at all, and instead told him that it was just normal.

What are you kidding, normal?

You know, the propeller of this plane was made 30 years ago!

After decades of high-intensity flight, its components were already overwhelmed, and he even suspected that the internal components had cracked.

Well, now don't doubt it.

Not only did the propeller really have an accident, but it even directly destroyed two engines!

If it weren't for the flight controller still running, the plane would have started to stall and fall by now.

"The speed is decreasing, stabilize the fuselage, start diving!"

"We are not tall enough!"

"Give it a try if it's enough or not! Contact the Tower! ”

"I can't get in touch, and the other party hasn't interrupted the interference."

A look of despair appeared on Wren's face, and at this moment, he wished he had never come.

Not far away, in the cockpit of J-10D, Yu Lin'an watched the whole process of the EC-130H accident in amazement.

"Damn. Lao Wang, have you opened your mouth? Say the engine exploded, and he exploded the engine? ”

"Pull it down, stop the interference first, and let them contact the tower. We have to keep up, and I feel like the plane may not be salvageable, and if it crashes, we need to mark where they will last fall, so that they don't even get the body back."

"Understood, the electronic pod is off. Osprey, try to contact each other on a public channel. ”

"Roger."

Wang Yun just opened the public channel and began to call in English, which he was not proficient in.

"This is the Huaxia Air Force, we noticed that your plane is malfunctioning, do you need help, do you need help?"

"This is the Huaxia Air Force"

There was no response on the radio, but the crew of the EC-130H did hear the call.

It's just that they don't have time to reply.

The altitude was rapidly decreasing, and the two engines on both sides were losing power, making it extremely difficult to maneuver the entire aircraft.

Hawke pulled the lever desperately, cursing in his heart.

Need a hand?!

Don't follow us anymore, it's the greatest help!

If it weren't for the inexplicable all-out interference with us, would we have used this propeller plane to make such a dangerous maneuver?

If it weren't for high-intensity maneuvering, would our propellers break?

It could have at least lasted until the next flight, and although the crew would not change, at least it would not be at sea.

The red light flashed on the instrument panel in front of him, and the altitude of the EC-130H had dropped to less than 1,000 meters.

But the good news is that the rate of decline is starting to stabilize.

With a little more time, it may not be difficult to get the plane back to level flight.

"Tower, Tower, PAN-PAN!"

"Here is the aerial compass and we encountered a double stop on the right side and the location is. The height is."

"Please prepare for rescue immediately, we are in a bad situation!"

As soon as radio communication was restored, Wren immediately contacted the ground tower, but the reaction of the other party made him angry.

"Air Compass, please explain the reason for your radio disconnection!"

"Lost radio contact?! Isn't that weird? We're experiencing electromagnetic interference! ”

"Oh God, clear the runway, I need an emergency landing!"

"Radio interference? How is this possible? You're using the latest frequency-hopping communication equipment."

"It's tracking interference! We're about to crash! ”

"Report your location and I'll clear the runway for you."

"I've already reported it once!"

Wren yelled angrily, but before he could continue his seizures, Hawke, who was on the side, spoke again:

"The fuel is dropping fast, the mailbox is damaged, we have to land as soon as possible!"

"If we continue to fly like this, just a little spark will cause an explosion, and we won't be able to go back!"

Wren quickly turned his gaze to the flight instruments, and at first glance, his heart began to fall like this plane.

It's really over this time.

Less than 40% of the oil remains, and it's still declining

There's no going back.

He raised his head in despair, and on the radar panel, the two Huaxia fighters were still following closely.

Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind.

Is it really impossible to descend to them?

Hope reignited in Wren's eyes.

"Tower, we have a serious oil leak, and we can't fly back."

"Please coordinate with the Huaxia side immediately, we will make a forced landing at their airport!"

After finishing speaking, Wren immediately connected to the public channel and immediately called:

"We need assistance, we need assistance!"

"The airframe is seriously damaged, we need to make a forced landing, please guide the route and request landing!"

An hour later, EC-130H staggered closer to the runway.

The runway seemed a little too narrow and too short for its massive fuselage.

But it has no choice but to bite the bullet and go down.

Fortunately, the airport ground staff had cleared all the runways in advance to make room for it.

With Hawke's proven technique, the plane landed heavily on the runway.

——

The entire belly was badly damaged, but at least, it fell.

In the cockpit, Wren sat weakly, his heart could be said to be mixed.

Part of it was because I was glad that I survived.

Part of it is resentment, resentment of the indifferent attitude of the old men at the Kadena base and the slow reaction speed of a turtle.

And the last part is fear.

No, certainly not the fear of the Chinese.

Because he clearly knows that the other party will never embarrass himself.

At most, they will dismantle the plane and repair it, and they will definitely be well taken care of during their stay at the airport.

But the question is, what about when you go back?

In just a few months, the US side once again made a forced landing at the other side's airport, what kind of signal does this show?

They will surely settle the account on themselves, and they may be forced to go to court-martial.

Thinking of this, Wren sighed heavily.

FXCK！

What a bad luck!

He wanted to escape, he didn't want to get out of the plane, but he also knew that the end was inevitable

The fire engine was already approaching, the gangway had been erected, and Wren stood up, glanced at the crew, and walked to the cockpit door with a solemn expression.

Subsequently, he opened the cockpit door from the inside.

What caught my eye was a smiling face.

Looking at that face, Wren almost felt like he was having a heart attack.

The other side held out his hand to him, his eyes constantly looking into the interior of the cockpit.

"Sir, it's not allowed to visit here."

Wren said dissatisfied.

The man across from him withdrew his gaze, the smile on his face unchanged.

Then, in standard English, he said:

"yes, yes, no tours."

"Still. Your engines are all broken, and this needs to be fixed."
