You were asked to repeat your senior year of high school, and you took advantage of the opportunity

"So sometimes I really want to dig your brains out and give you a good wash."

"Damn, they're all young people, why are they all holding such outdated ideas?"

"What misconception do you have that having just one advanced fighter jet is enough to conquer the world?"

"Modern air combat is a system-of-systems warfare, you know!"

Inside the cockpit.

Jiang Chen began lecturing Xiao Yuan—no, he should say all the pilots in the training regiment—through an encrypted channel!
Many people might find this strange.

Tokyo University is clearly subject to sanctions from around the world in the semiconductor, especially chip, industry.

In 2017, we couldn't even manufacture 20-nanometer chips.

However, the Dongda military-industrial complex is uniquely superior in electronic warfare.

In fact, the reason is very simple.

Because the requirements for semiconductors and chips in the military industry are not as high as those for private enterprises.

50-nanometer or even 80-nanometer chips are sufficient for military equipment use.

However, military electronic equipment requires more than just chips; it is a vast system.

Therefore, the container ship did not bring the J-10C Mighty Dragon from Dongda University, nor the JF-17 Thunder or other third- or fourth-generation fighter jets.

But they're all good stuff.

For example, a large number of drones.

For example, electronic warfare weapons.

more.

They are a group of retired pilots and electronic warfare experts.

The primary task of retired pilots is to operate drones.

The role of electronic warfare experts becomes even more apparent.

So, the hot war hasn't even started yet, but the electronic warfare between the two sides is already raging.

Jiang Chen and Xiao Yuan are now simulating two F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jets from Daliuqiu Island 'patrolling' along the border from west to east.

In reality, they were gradually closing the distance to the two Japanese F-15E fighter jets.

As long as we get closer.

Jiang Chen and Xiao Yuan were able to take down the two F-15E fighter jets in the first instance.

Xiao Yuan curled his lip.

Sure enough, once she became an official, her little mouth became incredibly talkative.

He has a whole repertoire of ways to lecture people.

However, Jiang Chen is now his direct superior.

We're about to enter the battlefield again.

Therefore, he dared not contradict his superior at this time.

70 kilometers
Sixty kilometers
50 kilometers
40 kilometers
soon.

The distance between the two sides has been reduced to about 30 kilometers.

It has already entered the range of medium-range air-to-air missiles.

However, Jiang Chen and Xiao Yuan still did not choose to make a move, but continued to close the distance.

Thirty kilometers away.

Yamashita Tomoyuki continued to diligently pilot his plane, flying along the border.

back seat.

Weapon operators control electronic warfare equipment to scan and monitor the surrounding airspace.

But just then.

About 100 kilometers away from them, two more signals appeared on the airborne radar screen.

These two signals were none other than those from the F-16E/F Fighting Falcon fighter jet.

Huh?
When did the strawberry soldiers of Daliuqiu Island become so diligent?

They actually dispatched two groups of four fighter jets to patrol the border line.

"Captain, two more F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jets from Okinawa Island are patrolling the border from east to west," the weapons operator immediately reported.

A look of surprise appeared on Yamashita Tomoyuki's face.

Based on his understanding of those strawberry soldiers, even with a gun pointed at their chests, they wouldn't be this diligent.

So he immediately said, "Call the other party right away and verify their identity."

"Hai!"

With the involvement of electronic warfare experts, the enemy's communications were now completely transparent to our side. Therefore, when Yamashita Tomoyuki and others used an encrypted channel to call two other F-16 Fighting Falcon fighters, it was immediately detected by our side.

Jiang Chen learned of this.

Make a decision immediately and decisively.

Immediately press the lever down and bend your head.

After descending, immediately engage all afterburners to close the distance to the two 'enemy planes' as quickly as possible.

Xiao Yuan followed closely behind.

More than 100 kilometers away.

When Jian Baicheng saw the dense array of unfamiliar signals appearing on the radar screen, he was completely terrified and at a loss for what to do.

His lead pilot had the same expression.

Both men were practically terrified, screaming into the communication channel, "Enemy! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"At least fifty enemy aircraft are already within fifty kilometers of our aircraft."

"Need backup! Need backup!"
Hearing the terrified voices of his "friendly forces" on the communications channel.

While feeling contempt, Yamashita Tomoyuki also instantly sounded the alarm.

what happened?

Why was there an enemy attack all of a sudden?

But soon.

The weapons operators in the back row had also noticed the anomaly; indeed, a large wave of unfamiliar signals was flying toward St. Field military airfield at an extremely high speed.

enemy.

Why would they choose to launch a surprise attack on St. Field Airport?

Could this be a feint?
Or lure the snake out of its hole?

But regardless of which one...

Neither side can stand by and watch someone die.

If our "friendly forces" at St. Field military airfield are destroyed, we will be isolated and helpless.

Therefore, Yamashita Tomoyuki immediately called the ground, reporting that the St. Field military airfield had been subjected to a large-scale air attack, and requested immediate takeoff and deployment to provide support.

But whether it's Yamashita Tomotake or the weapons operator.

They all overlooked the other two 'friendly' fighter jets.

By the time they realized what was happening...

The two "friendly" fighter jets had suddenly appeared several kilometers away and had activated their fire control radars to continuously illuminate them.

Jiang Chen saw that the fire control radar had been continuously illuminating the enemy aircraft for more than five seconds.

The enemy planes were like logs, not even attempting the most basic escape maneuvers.

So there was no hesitation.

Press the missile launch button immediately.

A short-range air-to-air missile ignited successfully and roared toward the locked-on enemy aircraft.

In the blink of an eye.

A large fireball appeared in the sky.

Xiao Yuan had also completed his attack on another enemy aircraft.

After two missiles shot down two enemy aircraft.

Jiang Chen and Xiao Yuan descended to a lower altitude once more, concealing their presence within the dense forest.

After the electronic warfare aircraft was destroyed, dozens of drones, supported by Su-30MKV fighters, immediately took off and roared towards Saints Airfield.

As for the unfamiliar signals discovered by Jian Baicheng and others.

They are all just fake signals used to deceive people.

Soon.

Two F-16 fighter jets have appeared over Saints Airfield.

Although these two old F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jets had insufficient payload, they were more than enough to blow up the runway.

Soon.

Saints Airfield was already engulfed in flames.

P.S.: The battle scenes were written rather hastily, mainly because the book is nearing its end. I'll finish the last two or three chapters in the next couple of days, and then the book will be completely finished. I posted the beginning of the new book, but I wasn't satisfied with it, so I deleted it all. The revised beginning will be posted tomorrow. It's a historical fiction, and I hope you all like it.
