A Tomcat fighter fell into the sea, and it also carried two Phoenix missiles!
When I heard the news, Kucherov’s face no longer had the frustration he had just given. The jet kerosene spilled on his head was almost the same as being splashed with dung in a fight. It was really shameless. .
But now, I actually found that the opponent had dropped a Tomcat fighter and also carried a Phoenix missile. This is the most exciting news!
Although it is the navy, Kucherov also knows many things. He knows the embarrassment of his own homeland defense air force. So far, he has not fallen behind a little bit.
American planes are ahead of an era. Our own planes, even the MiG-25, can fly up to three times the speed of sound, and the missiles mounted on them have a range of only 40 kilometers, while the American Phoenix missiles have already It started to hit the target from a hundred kilometers away. This is a huge gap, and this gap can now be made up in the simplest way.
It is the easiest way to salvage this crashed fighter plane. The Soviet Union's domestic surveying and copying capabilities are quite powerful. As long as the plane can be salvaged, it will not take long for the Soviet Phoenix to come out.
"Immediately send a telegram to Vladivostok." Kucherov said: "Tell them that we found American Tomcat fighter jets with Phoenix missiles crashing into the sea, and asked to send backup to salvage them."
This is definitely a good opportunity and should not be missed.
"We patrolled this area, gave up entanglement with the US Navy, and pretended not to find anything." Kucherov said.
Just when the other party fell into the sea, oneself happened to come out of the black smoke of jet fuel. He was quite embarrassed, and at the same time, he did not have any ability to observe. Maybe the Americans didn't even know that they knew about their accident.
In fact, even if you know it, I am afraid it is not easy to deal with. After all, it is quite difficult to salvage a fighter that has fallen into the deep sea.
The waves hit the hull of the ship,
From the chimney of the cruiser Admiral Fujin, black smoke kept coming out. Without using diesel fuel for combustion, the boiler was actually lit, and the water in the heating boiler turned into steam, pushing the cruiser to move on.
At the back of it, the Cassin-class powered by a gas turbine is easy to restart, and after the start, it can output the maximum power almost immediately, which is quite powerful.
After the two Soviet warships were molested by the Americans, they no longer had the face to continue to entangle the U.S. Navy at close range. They could only follow the U.S. aircraft carrier formation from a distance and conduct close surveillance.
With all the wings unfolded, looking at the Fresnel lens combination in front, Nathan steadily maintained the correct glide line, almost without the command of the ship leader, he hooked his fighter plane firmly to the first place. The blocking rope landed, it was a one-hundred-point landing.
However, Nathan did not have much pride when he landed. When the plane was pushed to the parking area and fixed, he immediately jumped off the plane, blocked the sunlight with his palm, and watched in the nearby sky. .
The search and rescue helicopter was hovering over the sea. The search and rescue personnel followed the crane down, and when it came up, they brought another pilot in an orange inflatable vest.
Nathan breathed a sigh of relief. Although the plane fell, the pilot was at least okay.
Nathan had just flew over the opposing warship and released fuel in the air, which was the most thrilling and exciting, and before he had time to cheer, he heard the sound of catapult parachuting on the radio.
Suddenly, Nathan's heart was stunned.
The plane malfunctioned, the catapult parachute jumped, that couldn’t guarantee the life safety of the pilot 100%. Nathan remembered his original radar officer, the guy who was a few years older, and had an accident while shooting High Aspirations. Nathan is very regretful.
Now that there is another skydiving, Nathan is very anxious, let alone his people.
The helicopter whirled its propellers towards the aircraft carrier, and soon landed on the deck smoothly.
Nathan ran over and looked at the two subordinates who were soggy. Fortunately, they were both alive and still very energetic.
"Major Nathan, we are ashamed today." Kosiczsky said.
They knew of Nathan's feat. They had put oil on Soviet warships in the air, and made the Soviets disgraced. They never dared to approach the US aircraft carrier formation again. They lost face.
However, his side made a serious mistake, which caused a fighter plane to crash into the sea, and the two of them also fell into the sea, which is really shameful.
"It's not your cause, it's a mechanical failure." Nathan said.
Just after speaking, a voice came from my ear: "Several people, the captain and the flight wing captain are looking for you."
Nathan frowned. Well, this is not good news.
"Now let's announce the first thing." When he arrived at the office, Colonel Petrobori first spoke: "The 111th Fighter Squadron, temporarily grounded."
"No!" Hearing this, Nathan suddenly became anxious and stopped flying? For a pilot, the last thing he wants to hear is the grounding, and the grounding of the entire fighter squadron is even more unacceptable to Squadron Captain Nathan.
"Leader, if you think there is a problem with this mission, please ground me first. Our squadron will have no problem." Nathan said.
If theoretically speaking, I still have the element of resisting the order. Putting oil in the air is a choice I made. Now when he comes up, the black-faced guy says he will ground him. How can this be
If you want to ground, you just ground yourself. You can't ground the entire squadron, right
As the captain of the flight squadron, Nathan absolutely disagrees.
"We have reported to the Fleet Headquarters." Captain Blanche on the side said, "General Morris also meant that. The fault must be eliminated to prevent similar incidents from happening again. During this period of time, grounding is the best. select."
Colonel Blanche had already said quite clearly.
This time it was indeed a terrible mechanical failure.
The engine suddenly started at full power without warning and could not be controlled, causing the fighter to roll on the deck indiscriminately. This was definitely a serious sign of an accident, but because it was handled properly, no serious consequences occurred.
When the reasons for this time were investigated, they could not be dispatched again. This is also a tradition. If the reason is not found and the normal training is continued, will there be a second and a third
Even if there are only signs of an accident, a detailed inspection must be carried out, not to mention that it is a real accident. (End of this chapter)
