Changkong Fighter

Chapter 96 The Most Familiar Alien (Typical Correction)

"Eagle calling [139], [140]."

The moment Liu Jun joined the battlefield, Eagle controlled the J35 in a hidden position and used laser communication to establish a data link with the two J15S aircraft. There was no need for them to report, and the data link directly displayed the aircraft status on the HMD.

"Fatty received, signal stable."

"Chicken received, signal stable."

"Fatty, Chicken! Separate immediately!" Eagle gave orders in the communication channel.

"Fatty, I understand!"

"Chicken, got it!"

There was no way to collide before, and we couldn't get out of the dogfight. Now friendly forces have arrived, we are running low on fuel, and all the machine guns and missiles have been fired. There is no point in staying here.

Before breaking away, Zhang Peng glanced at Liu Jun who was in a dogfight with Type 2, with some worry in his eyes. However, he had the Eagle's cover on the side. Although there was no machine gun on the J35, there were missiles in the magazine.

After Liu Jun entered the combat, Eagle controlled the J35 to climb to a higher altitude and used the EODAS system to observe the battle between the two sides.

At this point, both the J15T and the Type 2 were damaged by the previous collision, and their performance was more or less affected. Eagle quietly watched the dogfight between the two sides, and from time to time he kept his hand on the stick to control the system to zoom in the lens and capture the details of the Type 2.

Due to the weight of heavy aircraft, a single yaw rudder can no longer generate enough force to affect the yaw of the aircraft, and two yaw rudders are required. When the yaw rudder is damaged, Liu Jun tries to avoid using maneuvers that require yaw rudders.

Pull up, roll, and turn! Use gravity to reduce excess airspeed and control the Flying Shark to turn within the optimal speed maneuvering range.

Nose pointing type 2, head aiming locked.

Beep!Beep!Beep!

emission!

Swish!
A PL10 flew out from the wing rack and, with the assistance of the vector engine, turned an angle even more outrageous than the R73 and flew towards the Type 2, with the seeker head fixed on the Type 2.

The missile was getting closer and closer to Type 2. Suddenly, two optical decoys that were almost identical to Type 2 appeared around Type 2. The PL10 missile's seeker immediately fell into deep thought, because the planar imaging of the three targets was the same as the target it was looking at. Finally, PL10 chose the nearest enemy and crashed into it.

boom!
The explosion flashed, and the PL10 crashed into the bait, with lethal elements splattering everywhere. However, the damage to the enemy was not as great as Liu Jun had imagined.

Optical decoys? Liu Jun is no exception to the Type 2's ability to use decoys. Technically, if the Sentinel drone can use optical decoys, there's no reason the Type 2 can't as well.

Liu Jun looked at one of them, and his situational awareness told him that the target was the main body. However, whenever he looked at the other party, the optical decoy would always wander around the main body, interfering with the PL10 planar imaging lock.

It seems that another dogfight with this Type 2 is inevitable, but before that
Beep!Beep!Beep!

PL11A seeker is turned on and all missiles are launched!

Two PL-11As detached from their pylons and flew toward the enemy, both to suppress the enemy with missiles and to reduce drag before engaging in dogfight. If it weren't for the fact that the electro-optical pod was still somewhat useful, Liu Jun would have considered discarding it, leaving only the PL-10s on the wingtips to deliver a crucial blow. The PL-11As launched off-boresight and flew toward the Type-2, only to be detonated again by the infrared decoy projected by the Type-2. Both aircraft entered a face-to-face flight, simultaneously avoiding each other's head-on attacks.

When they passed each other, Liu Jun turned his head to look at Type 2 who was passing him, and that familiar feeling appeared again. The alien opposite was looking at him!

Hmm? This is
His excellent eyesight allowed him to immediately spot the illuminated symbol on the other aircraft. It looked familiar. It was the symbol on the Type 2 he had encountered last time. He had even noted it down and passed it on to his superiors.

As for what this symbol means, without the corresponding language and historical and cultural knowledge, experts are also unclear, and say it is most likely some kind of recognizable pattern.

But that inexplicable sense of familiarity reminded Liu Jun that the alien sitting in the Type 2 opposite was the alien he had shot down before. It had returned in a new body.

At the moment of crossing, the two pulled a single loop and entered the second circle of crossing again, with the noses of both sides pointing at each other, and again avoiding each other's attacks by rolling, and then entered the horizontal scissors maneuver.

They intertwined, looked for opportunities to open fire, separated, and intertwined again. The two fighters were like dancers in the air, crossing and spinning with each other, constantly changing the direction and altitude of the intertwining, trying to seize an advantageous attacking position.

He stepped on the rudder and pointed the nose towards the Type 2 he was trying to avoid. However, the vertical tail on one side was damaged, and the radial force provided by the remaining vertical tail was not enough to make the nose point to the position Liu Jun wanted. Liu Jun had no choice but to give up this window. The Type 2 that was performing horizontal scissors with him seemed to have a body failure because of the "scalpel", and its nose laser transmitter was never seen to light up.

However, Liu Jun did not dare to be careless, because it was very likely that the opponent was paralyzing him. He remembered the intelligent game he had played when he fought with the opponent last time.

After several rounds of exchanges, Liu Jun still couldn't find a suitable window to fire, and the opponent was still using optical decoys to fly around him to prevent him from launching missiles.

Alien civilizations are becoming more and more familiar with how humans fight. Similarly, humans are also becoming familiar with how aliens fight.

However, the result of entering the scissors maneuver is that whoever breaks away first will be bitten by the opponent at six points and occupy an advantageous position.

Liu Jun could only wait patiently for the shooting window, and seize the angle little by little in each intersection.

hum!hum!hum!
Suddenly, a piercing alarm sounded in the helmet. The ultraviolet approach warning system detected the tail flame of the missile launch, and the onboard AI began to prompt the pilot:

【Missile launch!】

【Missile launch!】

A missile? Launched by an eagle? No, an eagle wouldn't make such a stupid mistake!

Liu Jun fired infrared decoy flares and foil strips as if by muscle memory, and did an S-shaped maneuver without hesitation, using altitude to gain speed to separate from the opponent, while flying towards the 39th line of the incoming missile. However, the Type did not catch up, but instead separated in the direction of the tiankeng. Obviously, the opponent had no intention of continuing to fight with him. It seemed that the scalpel had a significant impact on the opponent.

After the aircraft stabilized, Eagle re-established laser communication with Liu Jun, listening to the RWR warning. Eagle said in a slightly anxious voice, "Changkong, lower your altitude immediately to 39. India has launched an R77!"

"Don't they know that we are carrying out a mission here?" Liu Jun asked with a frown.

"The Indian Navy lost four MiG-4Ks, and the other side is anxious to regain face." Eagle said with helplessness.
