Siheyuan: I eat melons while doing scientific research

Chapter 1198 The Proud Jiaozhi People
After all the planes had finally passed the Jiaozhi people's ambush position, the leader of the log-rolling formation began to count.

"All formations report their losses!"

"One plane lost, one plane damaged." This is an unlucky guy.

"My formation suffered no losses, but the planes were scattered." The formation was in disarray and it took a while to recover.

"The leader of my formation was shot down, and now I am the acting leader. The formation lost a total of three aircraft, but no one was injured." This formation was probably the first one to be hit.

"One engine has lost power, I need to return! I need to return!" A pilot interrupted without waiting for the report.

After a flurry of activity, the final situation was that 11 planes were shot down, 5 planes were damaged, and 2 of them needed to return.

After sending the damaged aircraft home, the lead aircraft in Operation Log Roll decided to continue the attack.

A 10% loss was neither small nor big. What made them feel frustrated was that they didn't even find any trace of the enemy and were inexplicably killed by eleven people.

At this time, SF-1 in the rear finally received a report from the log-rolling formation.

"Attacked during a bombing run?"

The intelligence chief on Hawkeye-1 felt a chill when he heard the news. The loss of an aircraft was a small matter to him, but such a huge loss meant that there might have been an ambush, and an ambush would involve another disturbing possibility.

In the duel between Hawkeye and Hawkeye, it seems that Hawkeye has taken the lead. Although I can't see as far as you, I can see more clearly than you.

He quickly relayed the message back to the command center in South Jiaozhi.

At this time, the commander of the Citigroup Air Force, who was feeling very proud and was waiting for good news with a breath of anger, failed to vent his anger and instead vomited blood.

"1/10 lost??!!" This number is already astonishing. A successful air defense operation can drive away enemy aircraft and protect one's own goals, which is considered a success. However, it is difficult to achieve 1/10 of the number of kills in a single air defense operation, especially in the situation of ground air defense.

"Yes, they were attacked shortly after they entered Northern Jiaozhi."

"Did anyone among them violate the plan and enter from a high altitude?" This is a possibility. Someone did not dare to break through at a low altitude for a long time, so he flew up and was discovered.

"No, General, all of them were in a standard low-altitude penetration state before being attacked."

"Did it just happen to hit the Jiaozhi people's newly deployed S-75 air defense missile position?" The Jiaozhi people now only have two types of air defense missiles, and only the S-75 can cause such serious damage to fixed-wing aircraft. As for the Oriental people's portable toys, what are they?
Citigroup Helicopter Force: I advise you to be kind.

"No, according to the report from the Log Rolling Formation, they ran into a portable anti-aircraft missile unit. All electronic interference had no effect. On the contrary, the flare bombs had a certain effect." A staff officer carefully looked at the report from the SF
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Portable anti-aircraft missiles cannot react so quickly. They may not even be able to catch up with the fixed-wing fighter jets that are penetrating at low altitude."

In the commander's concept, portable air defense missiles can only be used to chase the enemy from behind. As long as the fixed-wing fighters maintain a high-speed penetration state, the portable missiles with a very small shooting window can hardly pose a substantial threat to them.

"No, there is a disturbing possibility that the aircraft at the rear of the formation saw the aircraft in front being attacked."

"What's the possibility?"

"The portable anti-aircraft missiles obtained by the Jiaozhi people have the ability to attack head-on. Although the hit rate is not particularly high, it can be clearly seen that the trajectory of the missile that launched the first attack is a very obvious head-on attack trajectory."

"Son of beach!!! (Son of beach~~~~)" The Air Force Commander couldn't help but swear.

"Moreover, this type of missile should have been provided by the Orientals." The staff officer stabbed again.

"Why not the old Russians?!"

The staff officer shrugged and said, "Because we are well aware of the current situation of the Russians' portable anti-aircraft missiles, Mr. General, and you are also aware of it."

"But these are not the worst news."

SOB! You're not done yet? Can't you just finish it in one go?
"Say!"

"The reason they were attacked was most likely because they were discovered by the Northern Jiaozhi people or even a mysterious force further north. This was a premeditated ambush. Our Hawkeye-1 spotted a large aircraft and two escort fighters in the air about 150 kilometers to the north and less than 100 kilometers from the battle site."

"Hiss~~~~~~~They can reliably detect low-altitude penetrating aircraft??!! How is this possible?!"

We can’t even discover it ourselves!
Even the white bear can’t find their boss!

How could the rest, whether they were Jiaozhi or Oriental people, have discovered it? !
"Maybe our fleet is too big of a target, but all the evidence points to this possibility," the staff officer analyzed. "Holy Shit!!! Order all planes to retreat immediately! Retreat immediately!" The Citi Air Force commander waved his hands in anger.

If this is true, then what they should consider now is not how they did it, but to withdraw the plane immediately, because there is a high probability that there is a huge trap waiting for them ahead.

At this time, another combat staff officer stood up and said, "General, I'm afraid it's too late. The latest report from the Log Formation is that they were intercepted by more than 30 fighter jets..."

30 fighter jets to intercept, this number is not too large, but for the Jiaozhi people, it is undoubtedly a huge gamble to dare to deploy 30 fighter jets in one direction at one time, because they do not have many planes at that time.

All this seemed to prove one thing - they really knew that the low-altitude penetrating plane would pass by.

The commander sat down dejectedly and waved his hand weakly: "Notify them that the operation is canceled. The first priority is to return to the base safely."

In fact, he didn't need to say it. Hundreds of kilometers in the air, the F-105s responsible for the bombing mission in the entire attack formation had already dropped all their bombs, and used the little maneuverability gained by throwing away the burden to compete with the incoming Jiaozhi fighters.

The better ones were the fighters that were originally responsible for the escort mission. They were equipped for air combat and even carried some early Sparrow air-to-air missiles. Although their range was not very high and they had little effect against highly maneuverable targets, they did disrupt the formation of the Jiaozhi fighters and gave them a chance to catch their breath.

Fighter jets on both sides fought back and forth in the air, with missiles flying everywhere, but the effect was very general, and it was just for fun.

Whether it's the Americans' early Sea Sparrow and Sidewinder, or the Russians' K-13, the effects are actually pretty average. If the K-1M was based on the technology of our Thunder-13, the situation might be better, but there are not so many ifs in this world.

In general, the fighting in the air was intense, but the results were average. In fact, the Jiaozhi fighters were busy occupying the launching positions, and the launch of missiles affected the aircraft's flight posture, resulting in them being unable to catch up with the Citigroup plane that was trying its best to escape.

When it comes to the engine, the Citigroup guy is still trustworthy at this moment. The outcome of a fight may be hard to say, but as for escaping, he really can't be caught up.

In the end, the battle ended with a number that made the Citigroup guys embarrassed.

The exchange ratio between Jiaozhi and Citigroup in the air battle was 13:19. Including the 11 aircraft lost at the beginning, 30 aircraft were lost in the entire operation.

This was undoubtedly a slap in the face for the Citigroups, who had always had the air advantage.

This made the Citi Air Force commander, who finally received the battle report, very angry, and he made a decision that changed the fate of countless Citi pilots.

What the fucking tactics and strategies, what the fucking technical advantages, forget it!
Strength can defeat skill. No tricks. From now on, we will focus on crushing with numbers!
Use countless planes and countless escorts to crush Jiaozhi's air and ground forces.

Damn it, I can’t beat your dad, so why can’t I beat you?

The entire Jiaozhi War entered a new stage so quickly.
-
Gao Zhendong saw the report on this matter in the internal reference. In his previous life, he did not study much about the progress of the Jiaozhi War and its classic battles. He was not really interested in the dog-eat-dog thing.

So he didn't know what the battle situation and progress meant to both sides, but he knew at least one thing.

The fighter's pulse PD radar was officially declared usable.

Because along with the internal reference came the combat process of this operation sent to Gao Zhendong by the Air Force and the Defense Work Committee.

It's interesting to say that this battle was a brilliant victory for Jiaozhi, with twists and turns and flesh and blood in the process. However, the biggest project, our Hawkeye 2, actually only played a role for about 3 minutes from beginning to end and sent out only one piece of information.

But he was just like Gao Zhendong, who seemed to be invisible throughout this battle, but in fact he was there at all times. All the subsequent battles were due to his early discovery of the Citigroup aircraft that broke through at low altitude. And all this happened because of Gao Zhendong, who played a decisive role in the demonstration and development of various equipment.

Gao Zhendong felt a little regretful as he watched the battle. If we had used our own fighter jets, this battle would have beaten the Citigroups to a pulp and left them with a permanent shadow.

What a pity. What a pity.
-
Gao Zhendong was quite disappointed with the exchange ratio of 13:19 in pure air combat, but for the Jiaozhi people, it was like they had picked up a treasure.

It can be said that they won a great victory in this air battle!
The most important goal, the strategic location, was preserved.

Ground to air, 0:11.

Air battle, 13:19, the exchange ratio is still very good.

This was the first time they gained a comprehensive advantage in a head-on battle with the Citigroup Air Force, which greatly boosted their morale.

"Comrade, you see, it's a good idea to let Big Brother North give us some more 'advice', right?"
