Although the Hawk E-type missile has made great progress compared to the Hawk Bird A, it is actually an older model. One of the common problems of medium-range or medium-long-range semi-radar-guided missiles is that they do not have strong maneuverability.

It is not at the same level as close combat missiles. The faults of the Hawk E-type missile in this aspect are particularly prominent.

In order to increase the range and speed, the Eagle E-type missile was replaced with a larger and heavier engine. Although the fuel was changed to solid fuel, it is still much heavier than before. The Eagle E-type missile is one of the best in the Eagle series of missiles.

It is heavy, and the missile body structure of the Eagle E-type has not changed much. This makes the wide and fat Eagle E-type missile extremely poor in maneuverability. When dealing with high-mobility military aircraft, the hit rate is very poor.

Generally, this kind of missile is only used to deal with bombers and attack aircraft with insufficient maneuverability, because today's target drones are only basic subsonic low-mobility drones, and they only let Xu Xian come over to try the process of launching missiles, and there is no need for that at all.

It is an advanced missile, so I chose the Hawk E-type missile, which is specially designed to deal with low-maneuvering aircraft.

This choice is undoubtedly extremely beneficial to Xu Xian. Any subsequent improved models of the Eagle series, such as the Eagle M type, will have greatly improved maneuverability.

In fact, there is a sister version of the Eagle E type, which is the Eagle E2. This type of missile has changed the structure of the missile body, making its maneuverability extremely exaggerated, and even has the reputation of "dog fighting Eagle bird".

Under the name of semi-radar guidance, doing the work of close combat missiles, this is a true portrayal of the Eagle E2 missile. If they bring the Eagle E2 missile this time, Xu Xian's operating space will also be

Greatly reduced.

At this time, Xu Xian was holding the joystick with his right hand and kept looking back. He wanted to determine the relative position of the missile to himself. Next, he would make a more dangerous move.

In the simulated image, the controller watched the point representing the missile and Xu Xian's plane getting closer and closer, and was so nervous that his breathing almost stopped. Even if the three-nine maneuver was used, the missile's expected encounter point continued to change, and the flight distance also changed.

It kept increasing, but the fuel of the Hawk missile was too sufficient. With its continuous power, it maintained an ultra-high speed close to Mach 3 for a long time, and had to ignore Xu Xian's maneuvers.

The working principle of the missile is not that the missile flies in pursuit as ordinary people understand, but that the missile "encounters" the aircraft. The missile's built-in computer will calculate an encounter point based on the position changes of the locked aircraft combined with its own flight data.

The meeting point between the missile and the aircraft. The missile flies not to the aircraft, but to the calculated expected encounter point.

The basic principle of maneuvering avoidance of various types of missiles is to force the missile to constantly change its expected encounter point, causing it to continuously change direction. Changing direction is the fastest and most effective way to consume energy, whether it is a missile or an aircraft.

The only difference between missiles and aircraft is that missiles have limited fuel, while aircraft have much more fuel than missiles. It is undoubtedly extremely beneficial for aircraft to consume more energy.

However, there is a problem involved. The speed of missiles is usually faster than that of aircraft, and it is much faster. In many cases, aircraft cannot support the energy of the missiles, or the energy is so low that they cannot maneuver to keep up with the target aircraft.

Wang Qi was not far away from Xu Xian when he accidentally fired the missile, which resulted in the Hawk missile having extremely sufficient fuel power. Even if Xu Xian made three or nine high maneuvers, the Hawk missile could still maintain a super speed close to Mach 3.

, for Xu Xian, it is simply a nightmare.

If we switch to the most versatile Hawk M model, its ultimate speed can reach Mach 4, which is almost twice the ultimate speed of Xu Xian's C16C fighter. In that case, Xu Xian's escape time will be greatly reduced.

.

"It's too fast. The missile is too fast. Xu Xian's three-nine maneuver has no effect!" The controller looked very ugly.

In the usual launch position of medium-range or medium-long-range semi-radar guided missiles, by this stage, the missile should be running out of fuel or even running out of fuel and relying on inertia flight. At this time, the target fighter aircraft performs a three-nine maneuver.

, which can consume the last remaining energy of the missile, and then release the chaff to interfere with the missile's built-in active radar, causing the missile to deviate from the intended trajectory. At this time, even if the interference is removed behind the missile and the aircraft is re-tracked, there is not enough energy left.

By returning to the correct trajectory, the final threat is lost.

But the terrible thing is that the Hawk E-type missile is still at a moment of sufficient power. With a speed far exceeding that of the fighter plane, the distance between the Hawk missile and the fighter plane is still shrinking. Even if Xu Xian keeps playing around

The missile keeps going the wrong way, but I can't help it because my legs and feet are fast, and much faster than him. If I walk the extra distance, I can still get you!

If Xu Xian continues to maintain this flying state, it will be a matter of time before he is hit by a missile.

As for what Wang Qi said in the channel about Xu Xian not releasing the chaff, Wang Chenchen can understand it. Or should I say, in fact, with Wang Qi's level, he should be able to think of Xu Xian's situation at this time, facing interference.

With the extremely powerful Hawk E-type missile and sufficient power, releasing chaff is a wasteful and meaningless act. There is no way, Wang Qi has been confused by his accidental missile launch, and has lost his mind.

I can't blame him for being so calm.

Wang Chenchen's fingers were loose and tight, showing that he was also extremely nervous inside.

"what can we do about it?"

In the C16 cockpit, Xu Xian could clearly see the missile body at this time. It was expected that the missile would hit him within the next few seconds. Xu Xian knew clearly that if he continued like this, the aircraft would definitely be destroyed and everyone would be killed.

What happened, but he couldn't maneuver from the beginning. He needed to put the missile close enough. In a small space, the advantages of the C16 fighter's high maneuverability could be brought into play, and the shortcomings of the Hawk E's insufficient maneuverability were highlighted.

.

This is a glimmer of hope!

Xu Xian held the joystick tightly with his right hand, and his sight was almost entirely on the missile on the left rear. Now that the missile was too close to him, he had to focus enough on it. As for the control of the fighter plane, he basically relied on his body sense.

Already.

For a pilot like Xu Xian, he can roughly judge the status of the aircraft even without looking at the instruments. Moreover, he does not need to hold on for long, but in just a few seconds, he will make a huge maneuver.

Seeing that the missile was already close at hand, Xu Xian felt that it was almost done. So he immediately retracted his gaze, turned back, and pushed down the right lever to fully press it.

When making a supersonic steep turn at a high speed close to Mach 2, as soon as the slope was formed, the overload display on the head-up display surged from 1.2G to over 7G, and it continued to rise.

At this time, the huge centrifugal force pressed Xu Xian heavily on the seat. Xu Xian felt as if there was a huge weight on his shoulders, as if it was going to crush him.

After detecting the increase in overload, first the airbags in Xu Xian's legs began to inflate, and then the airbags in his abdomen. Xu Xian's originally only slightly thick clothes became "fat" by a large margin. A huge squeezing feeling filled Xu Xian's body.

For the lower limbs, this squeezing force will squeeze the blood that was originally forced to gather in the lower limbs due to centrifugal force back to the upper body. Otherwise, Xu Xian will soon experience black vision and dizziness.

In the past, the overload of 7G was enough to make Xu Xian black-eyed and lose his ability to move, even with the help of anti-German clothing. Yes, Xu Xian's physical fitness was so weak before.

But Xu Xian is different now. After a period of physical training, Xu Xian's physical fitness is really different from what it used to be. Under an overload exceeding 7G, Xu Xian does not appear as vulnerable as before.

At this moment, Xu Xian's heart was like a powerful living pump, sending blood to all parts of the body, especially the brain. Even though he felt a little dizzy, Xu Xian luckily managed to hold on.

Under Xu Xian's crazy move, the C16 fighter jet completed a 180-degree turn in a short period of time, and the Hawk missile following behind was faster. If it wanted to keep up with the trajectory of Xu Xian's fighter jet,

, it needs to withstand greater overload, and the Eagle Type E, a model whose maneuverability is already worrying, obviously falls into its weakness.

After Xu Xian's sharp turn, the Hawk missile's expected encounter point changed dramatically, from the right front position to the right rear position, and the angle changed by nearly 180 degrees.

Even under the extreme overload maneuver of the Hawk missile, the missile still moved forward in a large circle before turning back. As a result, the distance between the Xu Xian fighter and the missile was widened again.

"It is indeed a useless missile!" Xu Xian couldn't help but sneered as he looked at the Hawk missile that was getting farther away.

At this time, after a 180-degree turn, the missile turned from the plane's almost nine o'clock direction to almost three o'clock. Xu Xian still maintained the principle of three-nine maneuvers.

In the control room of the tower, Wang Chenchen slapped his thigh and almost shouted excitedly: "How courageous, how courageous! You can put the missile so close!"

Why did Xu Xian wait until the missile was almost close to his face before performing a steep turn maneuver? If this maneuver was done early, the missile would have more space to maneuver, and the requirements for maneuverability would not be so high. And as Xu Xian's fighter jets

After turning backward, the distance between the fighter plane and the missile will actually shrink for a moment. At this time, if the missile can turn back at the same time, wouldn't it be like falling into a trap?

Therefore, Xu Xian had to put the missile close enough to compress the maneuvering space of the Hawk missile. In this way, even if he turned, the Hawk missile would not be able to catch up. Moreover, because of its emergency maneuverability, it would lose its ability to maneuver due to inertia.

Under the influence, it was thrown away a certain distance to gain more operating space for itself.

Everyone knows the principle of this control, and it is very simple. It is nothing more than the tip of the knife. But in practice, it is very difficult. That is, when two C16s like Xu Xian are flying relative to each other with afterburner turned on,

When the relative speed reaches close to Mach 4, the reaction time is only a blink of an eye when the distance is still hundreds of meters, and only monsters that can still stay calm dare to do this.

Wang Qi had previously provoked Xu Xian and wanted to scare the newcomer Xu Xian. Wang Chenchen knew about it. For this reason, the team leader Li Cheng also specifically ordered Wang Chenchen to discipline Wang Qi. However, let’s put aside Wang Qi’s noisy style.

It is said that Xu Xian's spatial sensitivity during that "two-plane collision" flight was extremely amazing. It was almost the strongest that Captain Li Cheng had ever seen. It was precisely because he saw Xu Xian's powerful talent that he

Li Chengcai was willing to cooperate with Ye Qing in dealing with Xu Xian.

Otherwise, even if Ye Qing is the director of the advanced technology research and development department of the headquarters, he is not so prestigious that he can block the sky at the flight base and provide convenience to anyone he wants. Only Li Cheng, the captain of the Luohang Flight Group, acquiesced.

Everything can proceed without any hindrance.

Not only was this maneuver extremely simple for Xu Xian, after all, he was making a steep turn at nearly twice the speed of sound, and the overload was quite large. At the maximum overload, it was even close to 9G, which had a great impact on Xu Xian's body.

burden.

However, Xu Xian was different from the past and managed to hold on.

It is extremely difficult for Xu Xian, and the same is true for the missile. The missile is not a physical body, so naturally it will not feel physical pain. However, when the extreme overload is maintained for a long time, the energy of the Eagle missile is rapidly consumed.

, the originally sufficient motivation was now showing signs of fatigue.

Xu Xian temporarily distanced himself from the Hawk missile and gained some breathing space. He immediately called up the display of navigation point No. 3, corrected the course slightly, and flew quickly towards navigation point No. 3.

Navigation point No. 3 is a point generated from the longitude and latitude of the center point of airspace No. 3, which was entered shortly after takeoff. However, Wang Qi was the pilot before, so Xu Xian did not use navigation point No. 3. This

This time he could only rely on himself, so naturally he needed navigation point No. 3 to provide him with navigation.

The three-nine maneuver does not always strictly maintain the relative position of three o'clock or nine o'clock. There is no big problem if there is a slight deviation.

When Xu Xian called up the position of navigation point No. 3, he looked at the digital display screen and found that, as he had expected, navigation point No. 3 was to his left, almost at nine o'clock.

Xu Xian glanced at the situation on the ground, and some sparse villages could be seen vaguely. Xu Xian gritted his teeth and cursed: "Damn it!"

Xu Xian was actually prepared for the location of navigation point No. 3 here.

Originally, they were flying towards navigation point No. 3. Then Xu Xian turned right continuously, using 39 height, flying perpendicular to the left side of the original route. Then he turned right 180 degrees and became perpendicular to the right side of the original route.

If you are flying sideways, then navigation point No. 3 should be on the left side of the aircraft.

The actual location is basically consistent with Xu Xian's expectation, but this is not good news.

"The missile has begun to slow down!" In the control room of the tower, it can be seen from the speed display of the simulated image that the Hawk missile has begun to slow down slightly. This shows that the missile's fuel has almost been exhausted.

This is a pretty good signal. As long as missiles, a flight weapon with a weak successor, begin to decline, it will be irreversible.

The tower controller was a little excited. The slowdown of the missile here was a sign that victory was in sight. As long as it made such a steep turn, it consumed the last energy of the missile, and then released chaff and slightly interfered with it under low maneuverability conditions with insufficient power.

Missiles are nothing to fear.

However, this kind of dance on the tip of the knife is still risky. If you turn too early or too late, you may be hit by a missile. Only by grasping the dangerous and dangerous opportunity can you play a "joy"

"The role of missiles.
