Chapter 954 It's that Simple

Twin engines, twin vertical tails, beautifully integrated wings and body, soaring in the sky, is the MiG-29 fighter of the JG-3 "Vladimir Komarov" wing of the Preschen base in East Germany! The golden logo on the wing is shining in the sun.

Colonel Clifton, the pilot of the lead plane, watched the target disappear on his radar screen. This kind of battle was really not satisfying!

After taking off from the base, following the command of the early warning aircraft, they approached the target from the side and launched an R-27 missile with an infrared seeker at a distance of 20 kilometers. Then, the target disappeared. It was that simple!

Those Americans, like fools, kept flying in a straight line and didn't notice anything about their own side.

Since it is a missile with an infrared seeker, before launch, the enemy's radar only needs to keep illuminating the target and provide mid-course guidance. It does not enter the single-pulse locking stage, nor does it trigger the opponent's radar warning receiver.

Everything is so simple!

The grass-green MiG-29 continued to fly in the sky, and there was an empty rack under its wing.

In one wave, three targets were killed, and one of the enemy's fighter planes escaped!

"148 Squadron, there is another target, 20 kilometers away, flying towards you!" A notification from the early warning aircraft in the rear came through the headset.

Three of the enemy planes were shot down, but the remaining one did not flee, but actually rushed towards them. Was it to avenge his companions? Facing such an American pilot, Colonel Clifton was also very surprised. Where did the other party get the courage?

In the sequence of the US Air Force, the F-15 is an air superiority fighter, while the F-16 is mainly responsible for ground attack, a high-low combination. However, it was not the case with the Soviet Union. The Su-27 was mainly equipped with the National Air Defense Force and was used as an interceptor, while the MiG-29 was a front-line fighter. In terms of maneuverability, it was definitely not worse than the F-15!

And now, the opponent actually dares to fly over. He is either a madman or a warrior. Such an opponent must be shot down from the sky before he can be convinced!

After receiving the early warning of his compatriots, Colonel Clifton, while admiring his opponent, of course also wanted to shoot him down!

Twenty kilometers away, enough for visual detection! When Clifton's head was aimed at the target, the sight on the helmet had already tracked the target and kept tracking it. Then, a locking sound came from the headset, and then Clifton pressed the button on the joystick without hesitation.

Under the wing, flames flashed, and the R-73 missile flew out, trailing a tongue of fire!

Compared with history, the development progress of the R-73 missile has been greatly advanced. During the Middle East War, it had been exported to Iraqi fighter jets and participated in air combat. The R-73 missile equipped to the East German Air Force was a further improved model.

This model has a head-on attack range of 30 kilometers! And the power range is also 13 kilometers! This missile can even be used as a beyond-visual-range missile when necessary!

And now, the distance between the two sides is exactly 13 kilometers!

Although the range of the missile is marked very far, in actual use, it will never be used at the maximum range. Otherwise, the missile will be out of reach once the opponent maneuvers. Among them, the dynamic range is a very large parameter.

The engine of a missile cannot burn all the time, and it is unpowered during most of the flight phases. During these times, the missile relies on inertia to fly. Therefore, even though it is designed with an overload of 30G or so, it is useless at this time. For example, if the enemy climbs, the missile will follow suit and will consume a lot of energy, failing to reach the designed value at all.

But it is different in the power stage. The engine is burning and continuously generating thrust. At this time, the maneuverability of the missile is quite strong, which is absolutely incomparable to that of an airplane!

Colonel Lord was very angry. A round of attacks came from nowhere and destroyed three planes in his squadron. Only his lead plane was left, and two pilots did not jump out!

The fact that he was able to dodge the missile was purely due to luck. After all, after his own plane was shot down, he had already realized the direction the missile was coming from, and he dropped infrared decoy bombs while flying towards the enemy, thus narrowly missing the missile.

Revenge, revenge! After turning, his radar finally found the target! The four planes whose IFF did not respond were definitely enemy planes!

So, he flew towards the target without hesitation! At this time, the distance between the two sides was 20 kilometers. At this distance, he did not launch the Sparrow missile.

The medium-range Sparrow missile is semi-actively guided. After launch, the carrier aircraft cannot make any maneuvers. This is simply impossible. Therefore, even if the Sparrow missile is launched, as long as it maneuvers, the Sparrow missile will become an uncontrolled rocket.

So, at this time, he could only rush forward, fight with bayonets in the air, and use Sidewinder missiles to eliminate the opponent!

The AIM-9M has a maximum range of 18 kilometers, and it is best to launch it within 10 kilometers! While turning on the afterburner to increase the speed, he used the radar to provide guidance signals to the missile, helping the infrared seeker to intercept the target, and prepared to launch it at 10 kilometers.

However, just as his finger was on the button, waiting for the last few tens of seconds, he saw a missile flying towards him!

Missiles with infrared guidance heads will not trigger radar warning receivers, so one must rely on keen vision to observe. For example, when the opponent launches a missile, white smoke will definitely rise, just like now.

What's going on? What kind of missile did the other party launch? It must be infrared-guided! Colonel Lord's left hand quickly operated the side panel, releasing a series of infrared decoys, and then flew towards the missile, hoping to get rid of it like before.

Only the bravest pilots dare to fly towards missiles, and only by flying towards missiles can they get rid of them more easily!

Unfortunately, it was useless. At the moment of contact, he subconsciously pushed the joystick, trying to get rid of it by high-overload maneuvering, but the missile turned around and followed closely, and then the proximity fuse exploded!

Relying on vector control and rudders, no target can escape the super-maneuverable R-73!

"Boom!" Colonel Lord, the ace in training, failed in his first actual combat! He did not eject from the cockpit.

Looking at the fireball exploding in the airspace ahead, Colonel Clifton shook his head. The early warning aircraft sent a new order. He needed to rush to another airspace and continue to hide in the dark to kill the opponent!
