I give the little broken ball strength

"Thanks! Zhang Peng, I'll treat you to a roast chicken later!"

The rescued J16 pilot expressed his gratitude in the communication channel, then pulled the lever to avoid the oncoming drone, turned on the afterburner mode, and the tail engine nozzle spewed out a long tail flame, flying towards the orbital elevator.

Unlike the Predator UAV's engine thrust, the J16 instantly created distance... This is also thanks to the Predator UAV not carrying missiles, otherwise this action of using afterburner to create distance would increase the heat source signal, which is very dangerous!

Zhang Peng turned his head to look at the battlefield. In terms of situational awareness, the UEG air force began to gradually stabilize their position and gradually provided mutual cover.

Zhang Peng prepared to launch the missile again. While controlling it, he found that the plane was moving again. He saw his apprentice firing the machine gun rhythmically again, accurately shooting and blasting a Predator UAV passing directly in front of him, and even intercepting it!

Zhang Peng opened his mouth wide... The Predator UAV was flying at high speed and had a high angular velocity. In addition, the J20C itself was also fast. Finally, the initial velocity of the 23MM machine gun had to be considered. Add all these together and even an experienced pilot might not be able to hit the target accurately in this shooting window!

Next, just like a sniper show, every time Yuan Hua adjusted the bow cannon to fire, he would shoot down a Predator drone. In just three minutes, he had shot down 10 Predators. Zhang Peng also went from being surprised at the beginning to being numb...

The RWR alarm beside his ear suddenly made a buzzing sound. At some point, the three Predator UAVs behind him bit the back hemisphere of the J3C. Several tracer bullets flew past the edge of the fuselage. Zhang Peng immediately felt the pressure. The rear seat had limited vision and was at a great disadvantage in a dogfight. In addition, the Predator UAV was a rotorcraft and was inherently slow. The slow speed meant that the turning radius was much smaller than that of the J20C, which would put him at a great disadvantage in a dogfight.

The best way is to fight an energy war and use the production capacity advantage of J20C to defeat the opponent!

"We've been bitten on the butt! Don't open your mouth, or you'll bite your tongue!"

After saying that, Zhang Peng took over the control, and the J20C began to perform barrel rolls to avoid the shooting of the Predator UAV, and dived downward to use gravity to increase the fighter's flight speed, flying in the direction away from the orbital elevator.

Yuen Wah looked back through the HMD on his helmet, and saw three Predator drones following him aggressively. Yuen Wah was nervous, but not as nervous as Zhang Peng. MOSS would not shoot him down like this.

Still had to act, and asked with a trembling voice: "Master, I'm a little nervous..."

"Don't be nervous, kid!"

Lao Luofu's powerful voice was heard in the communication channel, and a Sophie Ultra-thin (SU57) was seen flying rapidly towards the direction of J20C.

"Earthlight, be brave! Hold on, I'm coming!"

"Hurry up! Nof, those dogs at the back are biting pretty hard!"

The speed of the J20C at low altitude was getting faster and faster, gradually approaching the speed of sound. When it reached Mach 1, a Mach cloud appeared on the fuselage, and the detonation shattered the glass on the surrounding buildings.

Shattered glass flew everywhere, reflecting the J20C's low-visibility paint.

PS2: Should the book include some illustrations of air combat maneuvers? It would be more intuitive.

Hello, little ball: Chapter 29 I was the best in the school back then...Fuck!

"Quick! Protect the orbital elevator!"

"Air-to-air mode!"

A cry of surprise was heard in the communication channel, and a large number of predator drones were seen rushing towards the orbital elevator, and the UEG commander was immediately frightened out of his body.

Inside the tower, the red-lit monitors stared closely at the humans...

"Fighters urgently take off! Shoot down all drones!"

"Protect the space elevator and planetary engines!"

The commander hastily issued an emergency order to deal with the emergency. However, no matter how the control personnel manipulated it, they could not modify the tampered program of the drone. In desperation, they had to issue an emergency plan: "Activate emergency plan number five."

After giving the order, the commander looked up in the direction of the orbital elevator... Groups of drones rushed towards the orbital elevator, and what they were about to face was the upgraded version of 1130 - the Watcher close-in defense gun!

Connect! Connect! Connect!

Ding-ling-ling... Ding-ling-ling... 30MM machine gun shells were scattered on the ground. The Watcher system, which was modified from the Watcher close-in defense gun at the orbital elevator, opened fire at full force. The fire whips shot into the air, spreading a large barrage of bullets. All the Predator drones close to the orbital elevator were blown up by the machine gun.

boom! boom! boom!

Balls of fire exploded in the air, and scattered fragments of the Predator drone fell into the sea around the orbital elevator, causing some small waves.

The machine guns kept shooting down Predator drones like a game of elimination, but... the logistics personnel behind the machine guns were not so happy, because the more fun it was to shoot, the harder it was for them to reload the ammunition.

The firing rate of the 1130 close-in weapon system is no joke. The modular ammunition boxes are loaded one by one by the automatic loading system, and then they are empty in less than a minute...

The effect was very good, as the machine guns kept shooting down the Predator UAVs, but things were not so easy inside the tower. They found that they could not correct the program tampered with by the virus through normal methods. In order to stop the UAV, they had to use 550C to connect to the control system and overwrite the control system.

Several scientific researchers in white coats braved the hail of bullets and pushed the 550C towards the drone control center. Along the way, they saw seriously injured people and drones or fighter jets falling from the sky.

However, they are not actually that dangerous, as the little moss will not actively attack them in order to allow 550C to access the network.

Outside the Gabon base...

The sonic boom was mixed with glass fragments that flew everywhere. The turbulence engine of a Predator drone that was chasing closely behind sucked in the fragments, causing the engine to shut down directly, and the balance system to malfunction, and it plunged into the ground and exploded.

"Kill one!"

"Two more!"

Old Nov drove the SU57 and fired two melee missiles, shooting down the other two Predator drones that were chasing him. The drones lost control and fell to the ground with flames...

After a while, two fireballs rose from the ground.

"Wow! Back then I was..."

Before Nov could say anything, 5-6 Predator drones swooped down from the sky and rushed straight towards Nov's SU57. Immediately, the RWR alarm in the cockpit began to sound rapidly.

“I’m locked in!”

"Get rid of them, Nof!" Zhang Peng looked at Old Nof who was bitten six times and said nervously, "Nof! Get some help! Get some help! Get some help!"

World-weary

Drones now have an absolute numerical advantage. Even elite pilots will be shot down because they are overwhelmed by the attacks of drone dog packs. After all, human energy is limited.

Nov pushed the throttle hard, and the SU57 spewed out a long flame and flew forward. The Predator UAV also began to accelerate immediately... The Predator UAV uses a turbojet engine. The turboramjet engine is a propulsion device that combines the turbine (turbojet, turbofan) and ramjet engines. The two engines share the air inlet and tail nozzle. The turbine core engine and the ramjet engine are combined in different ways, and the corresponding combined engine has different maximum operating Mach numbers.

With the energy provided by the dive and the full force of the turbojet engine, it followed closely behind the SU57 and could not get rid of the Predator UAV behind it in a short period of time.

“It’s shaking!”

Nov pulled the stick hard, and the SU57 yawed to the left, "shaking" the drone that was chasing it to the left... Obviously, Zhang Peng's understanding of "shaking people" was different from Nov's, who thought it meant to maneuver to shake the drone up.

As the plane swayed, more Predator drones swooped down, closely following the six o'clock position of the SU57.

Zhang Peng pushed the throttle to AB mode without hesitation, pulled a high G overload to change the course, and the J20C nose turned diagonally downward, making a low strong turn (low YOYO). With the help of gravity acceleration, he completed a 180° nose turn with minimal energy loss during the turn.

"Too much! Too much!"

At least 9 drones appeared in their field of vision, and IFF identified them as friendly forces...

"There are people everywhere, why are you chasing me alone?" Nov, who was being chased, couldn't help but complain. He performed irregular barrel rolls to evade the machine gun fire of the Predator UAV. When he felt that the energy of the drone behind him was almost consumed, Nov suddenly pulled straight G, and the nose of the SU57 raised, rushing towards the sky.

In order to catch up with SU57, the drone pumps fuel into its turbojet engine for free. As the fuel is consumed, its own weight is also reduced.

"Ah! Mom, I want to go home! What should I do now?" Nof asked loudly.

"Kvochu! Kvochu! (Pendulum maneuver)"

Nov pulled the stick hard and stepped on the rudder to the bottom. With the excellent aerodynamics and rudder effect of SU57, he performed a pendulum maneuver (falling leaves). The nose of the aircraft changed direction and dived downward. The Predator UAV following closely behind the SU57 was blown away by the tail flame of the SU57 engine.

"I was the top student in the school that year, and it wasn't in vain..."

Before Nof could finish his words, Zhang Peng's J20C headed straight for the eight Predator drones that had run out of energy and slowed to the lowest speed in the sky due to the dive.

Yuen Wah pulled the side stick and stepped on the rudder, staring closely at the crosshairs in the HUD.

【Aim → Fire! 】

【Aim → Fire! 】

......

Connect! Connect! Connect!

Connect! Connect! Connect!

The J20C was like an aerial sniper, firing 23MM machine guns at the vulnerable Predator drones one by one.

boom! boom! boom!

When the J20C passed over the Predator fleet, the Predator drones behind it were either exploded in mid-air by machine guns or fell to the ground with fire and black smoke.

Yuen Wah's actions made Nof scratch his nose... The new generation is pushing the old generation out, and now he can't even brag about it.

Hello, Little Ball: Chapter 30 Machine Gun Proficiency Five Stars~

After shooting down the Predator drone that was carrying meat, Zhang Peng controlled the J20C to perform the same maneuver as the SU57, followed by the SU57's dive and returned to the group of aircraft that came to reinforce.

"Dad (Grandpa) is back again!" After entering the fleet, Nov said viciously. As a Slav, he was chased by the predator drones before, and now he wants to get back at them.

"Don't waste time now, reinforcements are coming... Let's take it slow!" Zhang Peng told Yuan Hua in the front seat: "Let's go, cut them down!"

"Plate it!" Yuen Wah also shouted.

A fleet of various aircraft types pressed forward towards the Predator drone group in a mighty manner, with no chance of BVR (beyond visual range attack) at all, and they directly entered the visual attack range.

"Fire 1!" Then a lock-on prompt appeared on the HMD screen: "Unable to lock! They are all friendly forces!"

"Double-click formation! Visual attack! Visual attack!" Zhang Peng shouted loudly in the communication channel.

The fleet quickly formed a two-plane formation consisting of a wingman and a leader, and rushed towards the Predator drone. The semi-active guidance mode could not be used, and the infrared bombs could easily cause accidental injuries. The fleet could only enter dogfight mode with the Predator drone.

Zhang Peng and Nof tacitly formed a two-plane formation, with Nof as the leader and Zhang Peng as the wingman.

"Master, the machine gun is running out..." Yuan Hua looked at the GSH-39 machine gun with only 23 rounds left and couldn't help but remind him in a low voice.

"Yuan! Next, let's see how the Earthlight performs!" Nof, who was overshadowed, pushed the throttle and rushed forward.

"Cover!"

"Understood."

......near

A fleet of fifth-generation and fourth-generation aircraft and drones launched the "Second World War" in 2044. The biggest difference from the old propeller fighters is that the fighters have better performance, stronger thrust, and more powerful machine guns!

clatter! clatter! clatter!

As the tracer bullet indicated the trajectory in the air, the machine gun fell and passed under a Predator drone. The pilot immediately pulled the stick slightly to adjust the bow of the aircraft. The machine gun's trajectory immediately pulled up and shot the Predator drone to pieces!

The pilot took one look at the cannon and fired two-thirds of the ammunition in one shot...

Manned fighter jets and drones were flying across the battlefield. From time to time, a flying vehicle would be hit and a fireball would explode, but most of the time, it was drones that were hit.

The J20C cannons were running low on ammunition. Zhang Peng controlled the fighter plane to roam around the periphery of the battlefield, covering Love who was "taking revenge". Since retreating to the edge of the battlefield, the Predator UAVs had never troubled them again. Yuan Hua turned his head to take a look at the battlefield situation. The UEG fleet gradually gained the upper hand. Mr. Tai was letting the enemy out a bit...

On the other side, the scientists pushed the cart and finally reached the drone control system in the hail of bullets... Strangely, the surrounding drones ignored them and even deliberately stayed away from the two scientists~

"Our system has been tampered with!"

The two scientists carried the heavy 550C, connected the data cable to the 550C, and shouted, "Quickly connect to the communication network and overwrite the system!"

Wires were inserted into the ports of the 550C one by one, and this scene was recorded faithfully by the in-car surveillance.

"As long as 550C is successfully overwritten, we can regain control..."

At this moment, the search radar of the Gabon base detected a large number of targets approaching at high speed. These targets, identified as [unknown] by IFF, quickly approached the orbital elevator. Due to the program overwrite of 550C, the air defense system of the Gabon base had a brief loophole.

In a short period of time, a missile-like drone passed through the defense circle and smashed the fighter planes within the missile's flight path...and the flight altitude was just beyond the range of the ground close-in defense guns!

The close-in defense guns around the orbital elevator were still focusing on the Predator drone and had no reaction at all to the incoming "missiles" that were out of range!

"What's this?!"

The sudden change made the UEG pilots completely unable to react. By the time they came to their senses, several incoming missiles had already approached the space elevator.

"These things are aiming for the space elevator!"

Nov pushed the throttle to the bottom and pulled the G-lever. The bow of SU57 lifted up. After exceeding the maximum angle of attack, it chased the missiles in front of it like a rocket with the help of the inertia of the fuselage and the thrust provided by the engine. With great thrust, it could do whatever it wanted!

"Don't talk nonsense. Use the tactics that Teacher Wang taught you. You go first... I'll cover you!"

After the J20C and SU57 pulled up, their noses were pointed towards the missiles, the nearest of which was 400 meters away, and the phased array radar locked onto the missile in front.

"Launch 2!"
