Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 518
Falling behind, the Indian MiG 29UPG was hit by a missile that was killed in an instant, and then fell into the continuous mountains.The Indian MiG-29 ran out of fuel and turned away.The Chinese warplanes persisted and chased and killed the past.It is not difficult for Song Ning to guess the enemy's weakness. The MiG-29s approaching from the ground and air must consume more fuel. This is the reason why the number of enemy planes is equal, but they dare not fight back. At this moment, they can catch up closely and take advantage of it. .

On the circular radar warning device of the J-10, the surrounding Indian radars that are still functioning can be clearly seen, which constitutes the characteristics of the air defense weapon position, and its threat range is determined according to the range of the missile type as the radius. It is shown that this is obtained by the electronic reconnaissance aircraft through long-baseline interference detection and more accurate measurement of the radiation source, and it is transmitted to every fighter in the theater through the data link. If there is a new radar, the fighter can also be the first Time to judge whether you are in a dangerous situation.

In principle, fighter jets can penetrate deep into enemy territory as long as they avoid positions closer to the center of these circles.Through continuous reconnaissance and strikes for more than February, most of the air defense capabilities of the Indian Northern Command have been mastered. However, out of caution, the air command plane usually draws a prohibition line from Srinagar to Monali, Pilots are required not to cross; on the one hand, to prevent fighter planes from being shot down, on the other hand, they still do not want to expose the purpose of the campaign prematurely, because New Delhi is actually not far from the northern plateau, and any disturbance may stimulate them to bring back the main force of Spanga .Of course, this invisible line does not limit all kinds of ammunition and drones to fly over.

After the command headquarters made the decision to attack the large-depth target in advance, this line has become blurred. After the 2 fighters in the 4 formations asked for pursuit, they were immediately approved by the command plane, so the 4 fighters decided to continue to go south. .

Major Rolle did not expect the enemy to be persistent. His original plan was to find a refueling plane about 250 kilometers to the south. After refueling, he returned to the western battlefield again. He had a premonition that the enemy would not only come in one wave today. The number of electronic jammers dispatched today can be seen. The ground has detected more than hundreds of air radiation sources. After removing most of the jammers to create false targets, the remaining scale is also considerable.According to his judgment, the target of the second round of air strikes will be around Srinagar, and it may kill General Meneam. This is something the enemy has done.

He looked down to see that there was still 30.00% fuel left. It must be said that this improved fighter has increased its range.The system is switching fuel consumption from the body to the wings, and now his fighter is in the best fighting condition.Judging from the degree of electronic threat, the enemy plane is trying to track him from a high place, and four more radiation sources are fired. However, if they want to effectively filter out the ground clutter and complete a lock, they need to get closer, so even if they don't turn around, he It can also be guessed that it is still out of range.After a while, the early warning aircraft that had just left the combat zone and ran to nowhere should come back, and the positions of the enemy and our own refueling aircraft will naturally be clear at that time.He was very dissatisfied with the early warning aircraft in the theater. Even if he was escaping, he shouldn't go all the way south. A slightly tortuous route would not completely lose his vision.

"All Trident searched for the refueling machine as planned. After finishing, wait for instructions. I will stay and meet them for a while."

"Squadron leader, are you running out of fuel and weapons?"

"Don't worry, I have my own measure."

He decided to stay and cover the remaining three fighters. In today's battle, his troops didn't consume much ammunition, and it seemed that he could fight another battle. He himself only had 2 combat ammunition left, but at least he could rely on technology to hold back the enemy. He also realized that if the formation retreated in unison, the enemy might follow the tanker, which really worried him.

The EMB145 early warning aircraft turned around in the south, and through the intelligence of the ground radar, it was determined that the fighter jets that broke through were just scaring themselves. At this time, they had already returned, so they returned to the effective altitude of 9000 meters and headed towards Uttarakhand in the east. Going forward, this turn immediately restored some reconnaissance capabilities.During this period, the Trident Squadron never reminded the tanker that there might be danger, because they were also eager to line up for refueling, and did not want the tanker to flee the deployment area in a panic like the early warning aircraft.

4 Chinese fighter planes went straight through the enemy's deep area. If they kept flying, they would eventually fly to the outskirts of New Delhi. But that was not Song Ning's idea. It seems that there is a gap to take advantage of. The command plane flying along the border has already seen the panic The fleeing opponent's early warning aircraft and another large aircraft that kept circling in the air at 10000 meters were judged to be an Il-76 transport aircraft or a Type 78 refueling aircraft, while the opponent's early warning aircraft stayed at a relatively rear position, it should be The original observation range has not been restored.

The Air Defense Command of the Northern Military Region of India was surprised to see a few targets, and rushed straight at high speed, heading straight for New Delhi?

In desperation, they decided to take an emergency countermeasure and put into use the secretly deployed S300 missile positions.Its radar unit has been instructed by others to use a new modulation method, which has stronger adaptability. Its pulse carrier frequency and width changes are still out of the control of the Chinese army. It was originally reserved for the final counterattack. Now It seemed necessary to go into battle immediately.

At the same time, the Chinese listening forces stationed on the border plateau discovered that the radio communications used by the Indian army were increasing rapidly. They intercepted some messages with obvious characteristics of the headquarters above the brigade and regiment, and used them as the first batch of deciphered materials , which made the deciphering team controlled by Xu Jingzhe see the content of the deciphered documents on the screen almost a few seconds later. After these documents were translated by simple manual Chinese, the staff sent the more important ones to Xu Jingzhe , and forwarded by him for the most core identification.

He usually just glanced at it briefly, returned the distress telegram and the like, and transferred it to other departments if it only had tactical value. If it involved the numbers of troops above the regiment, it would temporarily stay in this department for further interpretation. , which he will personally forward to his superiors.It is a pity that after the destruction of several deep underground communication hubs in India, no major deployment information has been leaked by radio.

9% of the information he has obtained now is a report requiring air cover. In addition, there are routine official documents on the degree of loss, which are of some value. In addition, there are reports on frontier monitoring of the activities of China's ground forces, at least 5 of which report to the Chinese Army Xu Jingzhe was also puzzled by the large-scale attack.

On the contrary, the Air Force has intercepted the latest radar signal and obtained the new characteristics of India's air defense force, which seems to be a major gain.However, this is not actually an accident. Any unexpected attack will inevitably cause chaos to the enemy, especially for the Indian army, and chaos is a moment when it is easy to show more flaws. If there is no accident, this round of chaos will soon be over. It will stop, and for the intelligence agencies, the surprises will also be reduced, and the remaining task is how to interpret the intercepted information.Only like Lausanne, falling to an opponent who does not use any modern means of communication is the hardest thing to die.Technical means are almost useless, now neither where he is nor what he is thinking.Of course, the latest information obtained by Xu Jingzhe indicated that Singh had dispatched one of his most capable assistants to the southeast of Assam a few days before the defeat of the Battle of Assam. Bang, who is not clear, seems to have some purpose.It is known that this person’s name is Lugard Nahan, who is Singh’s former chief of staff and a key member of the staff group within the Ministry of Defense (Singer’s own small circle of participation). It is reported that he is also a former special forces commander. The purpose of this trip may be related to Lausanne.The Indian government seems to be unaware of this matter, and cooperating with recognized terrorist groups will cause serious consequences, but Singh is a man with great ideas, and the possibility of him using Lausanne again cannot be ruled out.

"General, intercepted communications from the headquarters of the 21st Mountain Division, inquiring whether the deployment of the High Command T Plan was postponed for 24 hours."

Someone pushed the door in and made an emergency report to Xu Jingzhe.

"Plan T? Any reply?"

"Yes, the command requested that it not ask about the plan on the radio."

"It seems to have some value. This part seems to have a high level of confidentiality. I remember that their deployment to attack Fort *** was also revealed on the radio. But this time the level is higher."

Xu Jingzhe quickly made a judgment. Judging from the current situation, the enemy has no plans to change the radio key. Of course, it is extremely troublesome to change the communication key in different theaters at the same time. In normal times, it may be possible. Execution, when the war is tight, this kind of large-scale project will undoubtedly add chaos to the already chaotic Indian army; but Meneam seems to have a natural distrust of radio communication, maybe it is just the intuition of this type of people?In order to ensure the persistence of the secret key, China has made a lot of sacrifices. For example, after intercepting the information that the Indian army launched a counterattack on the outskirts of Fort ***, it adopted the method of postponing the notification for 24 hours. As a result, Pakistan's first armored fleet almost suffered a big loss, but in exchange for it, Meneyam's vigilance remained undiminished.

The use of internal code names is obviously an original and effective means to prevent radio leaks, but from the cautious attitude of the headquarters, it has high intelligence value.

"It seems that the crackdown is still not enough. We need to intensify our efforts to reorganize the front and deep communication facilities." Xu Jingzhe said, "It's a pity that we don't have more specific information about underground communication."

"General, maybe we have neglected one direction." The staff officer who reported just now said.

"If you have any ideas, just say it."

"We have captured a large number of enemy communications personnel in Assam, some of whom have been deployed in rotation in the east and north for a long time. At present, we are only making general inquiries about these personnel, screening units, and observing their political leanings, without further... "

"Well, that's a good idea, why didn't you say it earlier?" Xu Jingzhe asked.

"I was also 4 days ago. When I was making a summary of the ideological tendency of the captives in the Assam campaign and supplementary materials, I found that there were members of the Independent Communication Regiment directly under the Srinagar Command. They were of high rank. They seemed to be lieutenants. It seems strange that Poole is mixed with engineers, and it seems to have some intersection with the construction of underground communication networks."

"Hurry up and find these people for me, dig deep! What are you still standing there for? Go quickly."

He waved his subordinates out, then picked up the cup, the nameless anger in his chest still not subsided: "These people are too late, and it took 4 days to think of telling me." He took a sip of tea and put down the quilt heavily.

Song Ning was in the air, and once again confronted that outstanding MiG-29, he couldn't believe that there was an Indian pilot who was dizzy and dared to fly back to an opponent four times his size; while the Chinese Air Force ranked No. 29 One and two trump cards are all in it.Song Ning suggested on the radio that the sparrow should avoid the battle and intercept the tanker instead, and let him shoot down the MiG-[-].

Zheng Hui readily agreed, but he had already fired two medium-range bombs at a distance of 25 kilometers head-on.

The Indian MiG-29 gave up its altitude and quickly evaded. The J-16 did not dive down, but accelerated to pass.The active radar launched by it is not capable of resisting ground clutter, and its response is relatively slow. The huge hydrocondensation steam trail was obviously flying with afterburner, and it was most likely directed at the tanker.

He originally thought that the four enemy planes would attack him together, so that he could use low-altitude techniques to lead the enemy planes to the ground anti-aircraft artillery group, force the enemy to disperse, and then seize a counterattack; of course he didn't know, China There are two aces in the fleet, even from the perspective of honor, they will not stay together to play with him.He called his companions and the early warning aircraft loudly in the formation channel, but unfortunately the altitude was too low to be effective for a while.

At the moment, two MiG-2UPGs are refueling closely behind the Il-29 tanker.However, the inexperienced guide on the early warning aircraft did not make a timely judgment on the movement of the J-78, and it took about 16 seconds before issuing a warning to the tanker.

On Zheng Hui's HUD, two targets composed of small diffraction spots can be seen for the time being. One is larger and the other is smaller.

He once again used the method of multi-target shooting, rushing towards the target 1.5 kilometers away at Mach 100.He thought, Song Ning gave up this advantage and stayed to fight against an old fried dough stick with good skills. This situation should be remembered.

Within 1 minute, the number of targets became 4. The radar identified three of them as MiG-29s and the other as Il-76.The newly emerging surface-to-air missile position in the west resumed its scanning status for Zheng Hui after making a choice about the scattered Chinese formations, but it did not continue to irradiate. It seemed that a group of novices in a hurry were operating.
