"A suspicious target was found, fleeting." Gus shouted from behind.
On the radar screen, a waveform appeared. Although the altitude of the opponent was very low, it was a flying target after all. Relying on the powerful Doppler filtering capability, the AWG-9 radar immediately found it from the ground echo. .
Then, on the display of the photoelectric sighting device, a burning flame was seen: "The target location is on fire."
on fire? Nathan suddenly felt very strange, something was wrong, there was an echo just now, and then it disappeared, and then, the target location caught fire. What's the situation? Could it be...
If there is no psychological preparation in advance, Nathan will not think too much, but now, Nathan has already thought about his own speculation, and combined with the current situation, a bold inference will come out.
It must be the S-300 system. The opponent’s missile is cold-launched. If it is a dud, it will fall and explode if it fails to ignite after being ejected!
"We will return immediately." Nathan said: "Attention Kitty Hawk. Attention Kitty Hawk. There is an enemy's long-range air defense missile position on Kunasher Island, which is extremely dangerous and extremely dangerous."
Nathan is also unwilling to take risks. After all, he is a body of flesh and blood, that kind of terrible missile, the lethality is quite amazing, risking his death to complete the task? My mission is not to bomb that position, my mission is to find out.
No one knows the terrible power of that kind of missile. In short, getting close to it is dangerous.
As Nathan yelled, he pulled the joystick and prepared to return. At this time, the wingman below him obviously didn't notice.
Nathan turned sideways, and in an instant, Lieutenant Kosiczsky was exposed, and it was so clear on the opponent's radar screen.
"The first launch failed."
"Change the launch vehicle and launch again."
"Found a new target, the opponent has two!"
"Two missiles, launch!"
A series of orders were issued very quickly. Outside, in the second missile launcher, there were two loud bangs. The noises were echoing in the valley in the distance, one second apart, two 9M83 missiles. , Ejected out.
One failure is not possible again and again. Originally, this kind of cold launch has a certain probability that the ignition will fail.
This probability can only be minimized, but it cannot be avoided.
Now, the two new missiles were ejected one after another. At a height of 80 meters away from the missile launch tube, the first-stage vector engine ignited at the tail of the first missile.
A fiery tail flame emerged from the inside, and quickly spread out at the back, turning into a huge plume of smoke, which was in a sharp cone shape. The lower it spreads, the wider it spreads. On top, it is about one meter away from the missile. , This meter is all hot exhaust.
Yes, surface-to-air missiles, this kind of long-range, require at least two levels of layout. The first level is for take-off boosters.
At the same time, because it is launched vertically, the first stage also provides vector control while boosting. Under the action of the vector baffle, the direction of the jet is deflected, so that the missile deflects.
The first level has no rudder surface, only the second level has it.
The second-level missile, also called an interceptor, adopts a normal aerodynamic layout without wings, with a tapered body and 4 aerodynamic control rudder surfaces at the tail. The missile head is equipped with a seeker, a radio fuze, a computer on the missile and an inertial navigation device, a warhead, a solid rocket motor and a rudder compartment. The interceptor is about 6m long, with a projectile diameter of 0.7157m, and can be overloaded with 20g.
The two different missiles actually have different boost stages in the first stage, and the second stage interceptors are the same.
Now, while dragging the thick smoke, it started to turn, the thick smoke formed two terrible trajectories in the air, and it rushed toward the target in the sky!
At this time, the Tomcat fighter plane had deployed its wings and completed the steering neatly. Just as it turned sideways, Nathan saw the plane behind him. Suddenly, his face changed: "Kosiczsky, immediately Turn back, turn on the afterburner, and go full speed!"
Now, it's too late to say anything, and after going back, you must criticize him well! At this time, Nathan has already realized how terrible it is for someone not to obey orders and can't order and prohibit. Then what kind of soldier is he
Even if you risk it by yourself, why do you need to bring another one? Is it fun
Especially, what is on the ground is a terrible surface-to-air missile!
If the enemy is attacking an air-to-air missile, Nathan has many ways to deal with it. The easiest way is to get rid of it by turning sideways. Using the filtering effect of pulse Doppler radar, it is filtered out as clutter. This is the most common method.
However, it only works for pulse Doppler radars. When the airborne radar of fighters develops into a phased array system, this method can no longer be used. In later generations, more and more advanced radars began to use phased arrays. The control system is to resolve the situation of unlocking.
Now, the radar system of this air-to-air missile on the ground is a phased array system!
The phased array system is difficult to be jammed, and it is also difficult to unlock. It can be said that the consequences of being caught up by this kind of radar will be quite painful.
Now, just when his order was given, the terrible signal of being locked by radar rang out in the earphones. Almost at the same time as it was locked, a warning from the early warning aircraft came: "The target has launched missiles, two at a distance. Thirty-five kilometers!"
If the other party dares to launch at a distance of 35 kilometers, then this kind of missile is even more powerful. It can be said that there is no more suspense, and the terrible S-300 is coming!
At this time, Nathan hopes that he is driving a MiG-25, and at this time, he can reach the speed of Mach 3.
The opponent’s missile speed is faster than his own, but there is a distance difference between the two sides. After the opponent reaches the maximum speed, the speed will become slower and slower. As long as you can run past the opponent during the time of catching up, I won.
MiG-25 is the most suitable escape fighter.
Now, there is no other way, turn on the afterburner and run!
The two TF41 engines at the tail are emitting fiery tail flames, and the wings swept back, flying towards the distant sky with the least resistance, just like a spear!
Nathan has no choice. He accelerates while continuing to climb high.
At this time, Lieutenant Kosiczsky behind also heard the locked sound in the headset, he was also quite anxious, turned and turned on the afterburner!
When he turned around, Nathan's plane had already flown two or three kilometers away.
Kosichsky also turned on the afterburner. At his tail, there were two TF30 engines. At this time, the orange light appeared, and his fighter plane began to accelerate.
They fled before they even made a face-to-face meeting, and even Nathan didn't even use the Mozu that he carried. He knew that these were all in vain.
