There was a burst of anger in Nathan's heart.
Those Backfire bombers all ran away, and now, there are only a few reconnaissance planes left.
Backfire bombers are not allowed to do it, what about these reconnaissance planes? Reconnaissance aircraft, you can always knock down one to relieve your breath.
However, the one on the Kitty Hawk just disagreed, and actually let it be expelled!
Nathan is extremely angry. They have launched more than one hundred missiles. If they hadn't taken precautions early, it must have been the rhythm of the entire aircraft carrier formation. But now? It was just an expulsion, which is ridiculous!
Nathan was very angry.
So, he locked the opponent without hesitation and fired.
At a distance of less than 20 kilometers, he launched a Sparrow missile. The firelight he launched would definitely allow the other party to see it clearly. At that time, look at the other's embarrassed look!
It's a pity that you can't see the darkness of the night. Only in later generations, with advanced infrared night vision devices, can you clearly see the target in the dark night.
In later generations, many fighters began to use photoelectric radars in order to achieve the need to detect targets without turning on the radar. In fact, they are photoelectric sensors. The distance to intercept the target mainly depends on photoelectric technology.
In fact, this is not an invention of later generations at all. There is already such a thing on the Tomcat fighter.
With the production of Tomcat fighters, electronic pods have been installed under the nose of production Tomcat fighters, including ECM electronic warfare equipment or infrared sensors, or both.
The early infrared sensor was the AN/ALR-23 infrared detection pod (InfraRedDetectionSet, so also referred to as IRDS) equipped with a gimbal device. AN/ALR-23 can be operated independently or mixed with a radar system. It can provide the approximate position and distance of the target for use by Phoenix and Sidewinder missiles.
In many exercises, IRDS has repeatedly found targets with afterburners high in the sky and cruise missiles at long distances.
In the later period, this detection device was installed with Northrop's TV camera set (Televisioncameraset-TCS), for which the infrared sensor was removed.
Now, in the dark night sky, Nathan cannot be seen with the naked eye, and Lieutenant Guth in the rear cabin has already started to operate this IRDS device, hoping to see the infrared rays of the target.
It is not an infrared imaging device, so even if it can find the target, it will only see a bright spot, let alone see the opponent's actions.
After probing for a while, Gus suddenly found the bright spot in front, which matched the radar exactly.
"The target is turning, it seems to want to avoid our lock." Gus said.
"One second before the missile arrives, give me up the guidance." Nathan gritted his teeth and said.
To get rid of the radar lock, the Doppler principle is applied, but now, when they are locked, they do not use the Doppler locking method at all. Therefore, the other party cannot get rid of it. Let them taste locked. The taste of being attacked!
"Oh, God, what's the matter?" Edtoff yelled. He had tried his best to operate the huge Tu-95 reconnaissance plane and turned, but the terrible sound in the headset was still spreading. Come!
Did not get rid of the lock, the direction is incorrect!
"You idiot!" Lockes yelled and took over the right to operate the plane. When he started to operate the plane, everyone felt thrilled.
Lockes pulled the plane back, and the direction of flight was exactly the direction that the missile flew!
What is this going to do? Flying in the opposite direction and getting rid of it a few seconds before it arrives. That's the way fighters use it. This huge reconnaissance plane is slow and absolutely can't fly. In this way, it will definitely be hit in the past.
Is the captain crazy
No one dared to question the captain's decision. On an airplane, the captain is the authority. If he dares not obey the captain's orders, the captain has the right to kill him.
There is a pistol around his waist, and he can pull it out at any time to kill the disobedient.
They could only watch tremblingly, watching the captain maneuver the huge plane to turn and rush towards the target.
"The target disappeared, it should be coming towards us." Gus said.
The detection of the infrared detection pod depends on the attitude of the target. If the target is far away and the tail nozzle is facing oneself, it is definitely easy to observe. The least easy to see is that the target is facing oneself, such as now.
On the radar, the other party is also approaching one's own side, and the distance from one's missiles is getting closer and closer.
Hearing what Gus said, Nathan was also amazed, how dare the other party fly over to his side
Such a brave person should have died early and overtaken his life. What a pity, if there weren't orders from above, Nathan would really want to fire.
From the time I passed through to the present, I have been accepting the aggrieved order, and now I have to endure it aggrievedly.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..." Gus in the rear compartment began to count down, until it reached 3 before he turned off the radar.
The sparrow missile that was launched just now must be irradiated by the carrier’s radar. Once the carrier gives up its guidance, it becomes an uncontrolled rocket.
Because they were flying head-to-head, Gus didn't dare to drag them for too long. Anyway, Nathan meant to scare them, don't really shoot them down in the end.
Although it is uncontrollable, it is still flying straight forward. If the target does not maneuver to evade, it will definitely be shot down.
Almost at the same time, Lockes had quick eyes and quick hands, pushed the joystick, and the bulky Tu-95 began to dive down.
It is true that a reconnaissance plane modified from this slow bomber body does not have too high maneuverability. The only way to dive is to have a chance.
Give you a broken loaf, how do you drive it to one hundred and five? The answer is downhill.
The Tu-95 reconnaissance plane roared and dived down. The missile that was still flying along the original trajectory, just like that, wiped the Tu-95's butt and flew over.
Get rid of it!
Everyone was celebrating. They seemed to have forgotten to observe. At the moment the captain dived, the sound of locking in the earphones had disappeared!
When they dived, the tail of the engine nozzle was upward, and Nathan immediately caught it with the naked eye, so Nathan pushed the lever without hesitation and chased it down.
Your grandma, after holding back for so long, it's time to make Lao Tzu cool!
It's as if the wife is pregnant and can only be a monk for ten months. After the wife has given birth, she has to hold back for a few months. Who can stand it
Nathan can’t stand it. Those bombers didn’t fight, just like they were holding back in October. Now, the Tu-95 reconnaissance plane hasn’t attacked yet, as if it had to be held back for a few months. Now, he has enough Up.
Nathan switched the weapon switch to the cannon, with flames in his eyes, staring at the flames of the engine at your tail, you can still spot the target! (End of this chapter)
