At this time, several missiles were flying in the sky.
Two Phoenix missiles were shooting at Ivanov behind, two R-40 missiles of Ivanov were fighting ghosts again, and the Sidewinder missiles fired by ghosts were beating Andrei.
The falling clouds flew together with the missiles, and the sky was the same for the fighters.
It was the Phoenix missile that flew first. It was launched first and at the same time the fastest. When the Phoenix missile in the field of vision became larger and larger, Ivanov knew that he had to maneuver to evade.
If he does not evade, his fighter may be shot down first, and once he maneuvered, the two R-40 missiles that flew out would lose control.
There are many ways to evade missiles. For example, just like Andrei, he successfully disappeared from the opponent’s radar and got rid of the lock through a side turn, while Ivanov adopted a simpler method, which is right Flying with missiles!
When the relative speed of the two sides exceeds Mach 5, many missiles are unable to respond. As long as the lever is pushed at the moment of contact, it can be avoided perfectly.
Ivanov was the idea. His MiG-25 rushed to the two flying Phoenix missiles. In his eyes, everything was a feather.
Closer, closer, facing the direction of the missile, Ivanov skillfully pushed the joystick, the first Phoenix missile flew away 20 meters away from him, at this distance, there is no Trigger its proximity fuze.
Then, it's the second one!
Just now Ivanov’s maneuvering caused his speed to drop slightly, and the body of his fighter plane began to turn sideways, and the target was clearer on the active seeker of the Phoenix missile.
As a result, the Phoenix missile rushed up fiercely.
Ivanov pushed the joystick, maneuvering flexibly again, wanting to pass the opponent.
"Boom!" At this moment, Ivanov heard a loud noise.
"Oh, I was shot." Ivanov called.
Damn it, didn't hide it
If ordinary missiles can indeed escape, but the power of the warhead of the Phoenix missile is too abnormal. Therefore, although the distance between the two sides is nearly ten meters, the proximity fuze of the Phoenix missile has been triggered.
Countless broken rods flew everywhere, hitting the stainless steel fighter, making a crisp sound.
At this moment, Ivanov pressed the operating lever severely, trying to separate his nose from the direction of the missile's explosion, so as to prevent his engine from inhaling debris, even if only one broken rod enters the inlet, the engine It will also be severely injured.
Ivanov dared not take that risk.
His nose, air intake, and explosives were separated, but his tail greeted him.
Regardless of the head and the end.
As the tail of the aircraft tilted upwards, it entered the damage range of the broken rod warhead. With the bang of the collision, the broken rod warhead with great speed smashed into the tail engine compartment.
A broken rod slashed across it, breaking the engine's lubricating oil pipe, and the reddish-brown lubricating oil flowed out, hitting the hot engine casing, and it burned instantly.
Unlucky!
With the fire warning light on the dashboard in front of him flashing, Ivanov knew that the situation was not good, and he turned on the air fire extinguishing switch, hoping to extinguish the tail flames.
The plane shook twice, and the roar of the tail stopped.
It's actually the most terrible double-engine parking!
Yes, both engines are burning. This is the disadvantage of parallel twin engines and being very close together. If it is a Tomcat fighter, the distance between the two engines is one meter, which can ensure that the other engine is intact, but Now, the flame at the tail is getting bigger and bigger.
As the two engines stopped, the tail lost power, and the speed of the fighter began to slow down.
Looking at the vast sea below, Ivanov felt extremely bitter in his heart. In this posture, he seemed to be parachuting on the sea.
Ivanov pulled the ejection handle, and with a bang, the cockpit cover was pierced with four holes by the cover-breaking gun. Then, the rocket in the seat was ignited, and the hot flame filled the entire cockpit. Ivanov's legs were close together. , Ejected from the cockpit.
Looking at the fighter plane that started to fall below, Ivanov was extremely depressed.
At the same time that Ivanov was shot, Andrei also felt that the situation was not good.
In his vision, the flying Sidewinder missile should lose its target, and if it flies so fast, it will definitely get out of its field of view.
In this era, missile seekers are limited. You can only see the cone-shaped space in front of the seeker. As long as the maneuverability of the fighter is high enough to leave this cone-shaped space, the missile will lose its target. .
This is Andre's plan to get rid of the Sidewinder missile.
However, this plan has a big premise, that is, grasping the timing.
If you get too close, the opponent will kill you before you have time to maneuver. That’s absolutely impossible, and if you get too far away, that’s not okay. Your maneuvering speed is not enough and you can’t get out of the missile’s field of view. In front of me, I was writhing in vain, wasting precious energy. The missile will follow.
But the current situation should be the latter, and his maneuvering is a bit early.
Originally, it was not easy to grasp the timing to get rid of the infrared missile, and the rearward vision of the MiG-25's cockpit was so poor that Andre could not grasp it best at all.
The Sidewinder missile is still flying with Andre!
At the same time, Andrei also heard Ivanov's shout on the radio, and knew that Ivanov had encountered an accident. At this time, he was not in a hurry, but kept absolutely calm in his mind.
Well, since it's impossible to shoot down Belenko, just shoot down a few American planes and let out a bad breath!
Andre had made up his mind when he thought of this.
I'm not afraid of the Sidewinder missile behind. I am chasing it now. When I need it, I can get rid of it as long as I use the afterburner, because I fly faster than the missile!
But now I don't need it. As long as I continue to climb, the missile will lose energy and eventually fall.
At this time, the two engines at the rear of the MiG-25 still provide powerful thrust far and wide. Unlike other fighters, the combustion chamber of the MiG-25 is strengthened and is not limited by time. Fuel can always maintain the afterburner state.
But the latter missile is different. Even if it is not a fast-burning engine, it burns out in a few tens of seconds. It is followed by ordinary inertial flight. Level flight is fine. Now it is flying upwards, and it gradually feels that it is exhausted. (End of this chapter)
