Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 563 Rescue Soldiers
"Don't worry, old man, there are only 3 enemy planes, you let the fighter planes of the Lionheart 2nd formation approach me. I will hold the enemy here first."

With no other options, Sami decided to intercept the enemy on his own.The current situation in the air is roughly tied (in terms of numbers). If another enemy formation suddenly appeared, it would be a desperate thing.With 1 against 3, the colonel has experienced this kind of thing before, and he is confident that with his knowledge of the nearby mountains, he can get away with a little harassment.

The Black Spider Squadron has always kept one J-1 fighter, but the colonel believes that after the Chinese Air Force's J-10 fleet leaves in large numbers, continuing to fly a lone J-10 fighter can easily be recognized by the enemy in the air, which is not conducive to his sneaking Tactics, he also knows that the enemy is a little afraid of him. On the one hand, this is what he expects, but on the other hand, if the enemy always avoids him, it will be very detrimental to the increase in the number of enemies wiped out, so he insists on driving a plane that can be mixed in With the support of the command plane, the thunderbolt in the formation carried out a solitary hunt, specifically sneak attacking the lone enemy plane; he never thought that the Indian Air Force would use such a big trick to hunt him down.

Now the colonel must rush before the enemy's medium-range bombs can reach the command plane, disrupting their plans, and once the enemy turns to him, it will naturally destroy the radar tracking of the command plane.

During this period, the first shot down on the battlefield occurred. In the area east of Kargil, the MiG-29 that lured the enemy hit a beautiful return carbine and shot down a Thunderbolt; , always in a hurry.Now the situation has become 1 to 6, and the enemy's level clearly has a great advantage.

"Listen, try to lure the enemy into a favorable area to fight." He shouted, but the voices in the formation channel were noisy, as if they were all passive calls, obviously no one heard his suggestion.

"Snake, don't swing around, keep level flight." He continued to remind the command plane, but there was no answer.Fortunately, the data link communication is still there. It seems that the Viper will not rely on its destructive posture to get rid of the pursuit. If the vertical maneuver of the early warning aircraft is too large, the radar and communication equipment will have problems.

Rolle had already seen a Thunderbolt fighter appear on his left flank, which was first spotted by EMB145 of the Punjab border patrol.He didn't know what that counted as.However, novices in Pakistan often have single-machine dispatches. Usually, when the enemy lacks fighters and cannot form a formation, they will also fight alone. This is usually the easiest target.

At this moment, Luo Er was following the slow-moving command plane. Seeing it fleeing westward in a panic, he was worried that the enemy would hide in the attack range of Hongqi 9 in the south, and he would inevitably have to spend some setbacks, but it seems Too much to worry about.He thought, there are not many chances of being able to win a lieutenant general, and he must not be disturbed by others.

"Trident 04, you go to the south to block that Thunderbolt, and don't let this fool interfere with my attack."

"I understand the captain. I'll shoot it down." Fighter 04 responded calmly.

The MiG 29 on the left side slid over and seized the altitude very skillfully. He was going to hit the Thunderbolt that was coming obliquely to cause trouble; Opportunity to shoot the first round of medium-range bombs first; in air combat, preemptive shooting means a huge advantage that is difficult to reverse, and the enemy will at least give up altitude and favorable azimuth to dive and escape.

Sami's No. 101 fighter plane did not have a medium-range bomb at all, but he still took the initiative to meet it and irradiated the opponent with the radar, with the purpose of provoking the opponent to be impatient.He knew very well that most of the missiles in air combat were launched in advance, and even experienced pilots would inevitably make rash mistakes, and would not hesitate to fire at too long a distance in order to get the upper hand.

In this meeting, the two sides locked on the target almost at the same time.The difference is that the Indian pilot was determined to win, while Sammy was determined to feint.

The colonel has been accelerating to the speed of sound, and consumes some fuel in order to accumulate speed.He had just taken off, and the plane was still a little clumsy.

The radar detected 25 missiles fired by the opponent 2 kilometers away. The enemy was calm. If it wasn't for Sargoda's surface-to-air missiles, the old guy from the Trident might be able to get closer, waiting for him to get close to the closest Within a reasonable weapon range, but only at the speed of head-on flight, the enemy's missiles will reach the eyes within 20 seconds.

The colonel slammed the lever down and dived, releasing the jammer.This evasive action is simple and rigid, just like a fledgling rookie should have when encountering an enemy missile for the first time. Except for the 3G dive action, there is no other horizontal maneuvering.

The chaff interference made it difficult for the enemy's radar to track. Obviously, he had to keep a close eye on the thunderbolt and control the mid-flight of the missile through instructions, otherwise the missile would be lost as soon as it was turned on.However, the non-stop scanning of the Hongqi 9 guidance radar on the northwest highlands of Sargoda made the Indian pilot highly nervous. He could not quickly follow up with Sami's movement. Going down and dealing with this obvious rookie, I am afraid that I will lose energy and be taken advantage of by enemy missiles.After hesitating, the active radar of the R77 missile was turned on, it focused on a piece of chaff, and chased it directly.

Sammy passed the joystick to his left hand, freeing his right to shade the sun on the eastern horizon.He saw two clear streams of white steam passing above in the blue sky, and the flight path had no twists and turns, which meant that the target was missed in the middle.The enemy was apparently intimidated by Sargoda's air defense network.Now was the perfect moment to snatch it right under his nose, and he immediately swapped the right-hand lever while pushing the throttle, trying to maintain a high subsonic speed through the climb.The radar tracked the target closely, and the enemy plane really thought he was going to fire and turned to the east.At this time, Sami turned sharply to the west and drove straight into the other two Tridents.In this round of fighting, he hardly slowed down, only slightly lost some altitude.

The entire Trident formation could discover through the data link that a plane had drilled to the side. At this time, the No. 04 fighter was thrown behind through a big turn at a loss, and Rolle's left wing had no barriers.He was still a short while away from catching up with ZDK03.

According to the convention, he should be in a more suitable position to block the enemy on the left, not the wingman on the right, but he hopes to monopolize the honor of shooting down the early warning aircraft, and ordered the No. 03 fighter to block the incoming enemy, because the No. 03 fighter is also 1.5 kilometers behind him. In preparation for the launch of the medium-range projectile, this made such a dispatch of near and far, allowing Sami to take advantage of the second loophole.

Of course, the colonel could easily judge the position of the enemy's lead plane from the general situation, because he would have made the same deployment himself. He always believed that a person with no selfish intentions was actually not very suitable for flying a fighter jet.

Sami ignored the enemy plane that was coming obliquely from afar, but went straight to Rolle's fighter plane.When the two enemy planes exchange formation positions, they cannot fire in time.When Sammy took the opportunity to maintain the supersonic speed for 20 seconds, and then dropped the empty drop tank.After a simple straight oblique insertion, he occupied Rolle's 9 o'clock position.

During the period, ZDK experienced 2 meaningless turns, forcing the MiG-29 to follow the maneuver and unable to accelerate to the speed of sound.Now Rolle has firmly locked on the target and is ready to fire at any time.Judging from the data, Goya's large formation is rushing over. Of course, as a powerful new force, his formation is almost invincible over Pakistan, but it will take some time to bypass the Sargoda surface-to-air missile position. time.On the other hand, the Thunderbolt, which was rushing and hitting without any rules, was catching up to its very important position at this moment. The Thunderbolt only needed to maintain its current heading to enter its rear hemisphere within a few seconds, and its azimuth angle was extremely small.He couldn't be sure if this plane was Thunderbolt 101. He had limited chances to fight Sami in the past, but he could find out from the records that 101 was not so reckless when it attacked.

He canceled the R 77 missile selected in the fire control computer and launched 2 R27ET missiles instead.After a series of actual battles, he tends to carry this kind of missile. This kind of special missile can always give the enemy some unexpected hardships during formation air combat. Of course, because the power range exceeds the active radar-guided R77 missile, its special The passive infrared seeker also has the ability to shoot and kill early warning aircraft.The only problem is that this missile also requires a period of airborne radar tracking and command guidance, and the time is longer than the R77 (the infrared seeker can intercept the target by itself at a closer distance).

After the enemy launched the missile, Sami knew that the enemy had attacked almost at the same time. At this time, the MiG-29 was about 03 kilometers away from ZDK50, and the speed of the aircraft was not high, so this was a very reluctant tail chase attack, which was almost impossible with the R77. It must be some kind of R27 missile; that is, he still has a chance to destroy the enemy's continuous semi-active radar guidance or mid-course command guidance by attacking this MiG-29.This time he did not use the radar to scare the enemy. He knew that the Indian pilot could only keep looking down at the data link and then turned his head to search for himself. exert invisible pressure.

Even though he knew that Islam was fucking shit right now, it would still take a lot of time for the missiles to catch up to him.He dived headlong into the clouds, flying entirely by data link and navigation information, avoiding the radars of the two MiG-2s that followed him.These Indian pilots went deep into the enemy's territory. After all, they did not dare to concentrate on air combat. They always had to pay attention to the firepower that suddenly appeared on the ground and the tricks in the blind spots of their own early warning aircraft. Excessive use of afterburner to consume fuel on the return trip should also be a problem. While Sammy was engrossed in combat, his course was almost straight and his acceleration was unmistakable.

The rear A50EI's warning radar has been able to scan the Thunderbolt.Radar accuracy can tell Rohr the approximate location and distance of the enemy.But the accuracy is not enough to tell the enemy is hiding under that cloud.

Roll was a little flustered, as Sammy expected, he kept turning his head to the left, and then looked back at the vertical display HUD; if the Raiden's radar scanned him, he could roughly determine what direction the enemy would take and what actions would be taken , but the current quiet situation is the worst; experienced pilots always launch missiles that do not trigger the alarm when they are tailing.

He knew that the enemy plane was hiding in an area slightly lower than his own at 7 o'clock, about 6 to 7 kilometers away, and was always approaching with his head buried. However, he had to keep fine-tuning the radar pulse repetition rate of the plane's attitude to deal with it. Various disturbances and turning actions launched by the ZDK03, which is stubbornly resisting.

Sammy silently counted to 20.Then it emerged from the clouds, like a silent shark.He knows that he has at most a one-third chance, so he must not act too hastily. ZDK03 has 4 engines. At the same time, the Islamic people are loyal and pray in the morning and evening, so the chances may be increased to a [-]-[-] split.

The first second he got out of the clouds, he saw the MiG-29 above, and he was in a blind spot where the enemy could not easily see him. Of course, the rising sun in the east might leave a long thunder shadow on the clouds, This is something that humans cannot calculate.

He raised the nose of the aircraft and brought the enemy plane into the search circle. After a while, the warning sound of the target's infrared signal interception and his own being intercepted by the enemy's radar sounded almost simultaneously.The distance is a bit tight but fortunately his speed is relatively high. He chooses to launch a missile first, then rolls to one side to get rid of the radar tracking of the rear enemy aircraft, and launches the second missile after an interval of 1 seconds. This is not usual. He hopes that the missiles will take different routes as much as possible; after seeing the first missile, the pilot will often panic, and it is easy to lose vigilance in other directions. When the cloudy sky below can cover the missile aircraft , especially so.Most of the time, the result of air combat is not how many Gs the aircraft can fly, but the failure of the pilot to detect the main threat.

After the two missiles were launched, the colonel began to quickly occupy the altitude. He did not follow the enemy plane closely. Later, the enemy would either be shot down or swoop to get rid of it. At that time, he must have enough altitude capital to deal with the captain. Extend the advantage (he is prepared for the first round of attacks to miss).

Roll kept turning the fuselage to maintain the rear view, and at the same time aimed at the target with the radar. He didn't notice the shadow of the thunder and lightning flashing across the clouds at the first time, but he saw the first one that drew a huge arc approaching Missiles, if the wake of Chinese missiles is not more obvious, he will almost be caught.He was forced to give up tracking and turned sharply to the north, rolling in the air to search for the location of the second missile (he knew it must be there), instead of rushing to dive and accelerate.Luo Er has already realized that the one who can launch such a tricky attack is definitely not a reckless rookie, it must be the lone wolf.So he must hold on to the height advantage and deal with it carefully.

Sure enough, he saw another missile turning from the other side, a little further away.

"Old dog, so insidious."

He simply turned sharply to the right, then swooped down, and fell headlong, ignoring the stick with his right hand and selecting 10 sets of infrared jamming bombs to continue firing.The sky was blasted with clouds by tracer bombs.

He kept turning his head left and right to observe the distance of the missiles. The two missiles circled one from the left and the other from the right. He saw that at almost the same distance, he entered a dive with a nearly 2G slope and turned sideways. The fighter plane was like a meteor. Gone under the cover of tracer bullets.

The two missiles that arrived one after the other had no time to distinguish the target, and plunged into the tracer bullets. After they got out of the hot smoke, they collided together.

"Good job, bastard."

Sami rushed down from a high altitude, and seeing the scene below, he couldn't help admiring his opponent's calmness.If the Indian pilot was not calm enough, he would lose energy after dodging the first missile and be hit by the second missile that lost power and was in a taxiing state, but the captain could calmly approach the farther missile, Consume the power of 2 missiles, and finally get rid of 2 missiles at the same time through an extremely precise action.
