If viewed from a distance, the trajectory of the two 9M83 missiles is like climbing a mountain, climbing steep mountains, higher and higher, higher and higher, because it is a curved arc, so the distance between them is also It was approaching quickly, and finally, it was close to one hundred meters, ninety meters, eighty meters...
Inside the missile, the fuze finally started to move.
This missile is trans-epoch, and its fuze is also unique. It uses a dual-beam radio fuze. The fuze antenna is mounted on the seeker antenna and it tracks the target along with the seeker antenna.
Because its combat objectives are different, it can receive signals within a tilt angle of less than 60° when dealing with high-speed targets such as tactical ballistic missiles. Another type of fuze antenna is a lateral antenna with adjustable beam inclination, which is used to deal with low-speed targets such as airplanes.
Now, the lateral fuze felt the rapid approach of the opposite distance, and it was keenly aware of something.
The opportunity to detonate has arrived!
"Boom!" A huge explosion sounded.
At this moment, the huge warhead exploded violently!
Countless fragments quickly spread around.
The fuze of this kind of missile can work at a distance of 90 meters. Therefore, the previous fighters wanted to fly head-to-head and then quickly dodge. It is useless, because you dodge it early and it’s useless. It’s too late to evade, and it’s useless. People will detonate. The timing is hard to grasp. The detonation distance of this kind of missile is close to 100 meters. The distance is about ten meters.
The detonation at 90 meters was also in pursuit of sufficient killing effect. Now, the two missiles exploded, blooming beautiful flowers in the air. At the same time, the radius of the explosion was also rapidly expanding. It was tens of meters just now. Now, it quickly expanded to a few hundred meters!
Shrapnel continued to fly forward and upward, and one of the fragments caught up with Lieutenant Kosiczsky's plane.
"Bang!" The fragment got into the position of his tail, and then the fragment got into the flying engine.
In the tens of thousands of revolutions of the engine, there is a piece of debris flying, what will be the result? You can know it with your toes.
The fragment hit the blade, the blade was cut by the fragments, and then turned into more fragments...
In an instant, billowing black smoke came out from the tail of this Tomcat fighter, and the engine fire light on Kosiczsky's display panel turned on.
"The right is on fire, the right is on fire!" the radar officer Seymour shouted.
"Immediately turn off the right engine and activate the fire extinguishing system." Kosiczsky shouted, and at the same time, he leveled the plane.
When the aircraft's engine catches fire, the first time is to close the oil circuit to prevent the fire from expanding, and then use the onboard fire extinguishing system to try to extinguish it.
After Kosiczsky leveled the plane, it turned uncontrollably to the right.
The tail of the Tomcat fighter is special. Although its two engines are side by side, they are not close to each other. The space between them is more than one meter. The advantage of this is that if one of the engines catches fire, it will not affect To another one.
This is the case now. Although the right is on fire, the engine on the left has not been affected and is still working at full capacity.
However, if the two engines are too far apart, it will cause a terrible yaw moment problem. Now, there is no power on the right side, and the engine on the left side is working at full capacity. In this way, the nose is uncontrollably skewed to the right. Sailed.
As a result, Kosiczsky could only push the joystick hard, hoping to control the plane. Now, he didn't think about anything else, as long as he could fly the plane back, it would be a blessing.
"Weeds, return immediately, return immediately." At this time, Nathan had also leveled off. Looking at the Tomcat fighter under him, he couldn't help but give orders.
On the right side of the plane, the fire was controlled and gradually turned into black smoke, and then the smoke gradually diminished, and the fire extinguishing system looked good.
In this way, relying on the TF30 engine on one side, I hope to return home safely!
"Hawkeye, how far are we from the target?" Nathan continued to ask.
There is no doubt that the air defense missile position below is the S-300. This weapon has a terrible range. If oneself is still within their strike range and two more shots are made, Kosiczsky may not be able to escape. .
"Eighty kilometers away from the target, the target did not continue to launch missiles." Hawkeye's response came later.
Eighty kilometers is already beyond the opponent's range. Although in theory, the opponent's missile can hit more than 100 kilometers, but this data is definitely watery, just like the Tomcat hits six.
Nathan breathed a sigh of relief. For the time being, there is no need to worry about the opponent's long-range air defense missile position. I hope Kosiczsky can fly back.
But what is afraid of.
Almost in the next second, he saw the left side engine of the plane, and the flames inside disappeared.
"Weeds, report the situation." Nathan yelled, as he was already in a hurry.
"Left engine stalled." Kosiczsky shouted: "I'm trying to restart." Damn, the chain fell off at a critical time. This TF30 engine is easy to stall as long as it does a large overload maneuver, but now, it's just level flight. , Actually turned off for no reason
At this time, Kosichsky's brain was quiet, and his arrival was useful. At least he and Nathan had teased the two incoming missiles.
Now, it must start successfully!
Kosiczsky flipped the switches, and then pressed the air restart button, expecting the roar from the tail to come again.
Nathan in the sky, watching from behind, the right engine was still smoking, the left engine, just a few small flames, and then went out again.
"Restart failed." Kosiczsky said, just looking at his dashboard, the engine tachometer picked up, but it was just a flashback before he died, and he went back again.
How to do
The two engines are all over. After losing power, the plane will fall down like a big rock, and it will fall into the sea after a short while.
He didn't dare to move the control stick. Now that the engine loses its power, it also loses its hydraulic pressure. With the existing pressure inside, the airplane can maintain its balance. After a few moves, the hydraulic pressure inside loses and all the rudder surfaces are locked. Now, he can't move anymore!
(You can try to turn off and step on the brake. The first foot can be stepped on because the booster still exists. When the second foot and the third foot, you can’t step on it, because the booster has been consumed in the previous steps. .) (End of this chapter)
