No matter where this MiG-35 comes from or where it is going, the fact that it is attacking Qinglan at this moment is undeniable.
The pilot of this single-seat MiG-35 is Horn, an international professional combat pilot. He has rich combat experience, is calm, and has a vicious gaze. He can judge Li Hai's flight path selection and actions when entering the attack route.
He was an experienced pilot, so despite being in an excellent position, he still gave up the attack and continued to lurk.
The level shown by the latter two fighters of the same model is quite different from the former.
Although he was facing two Su-30MK2s, Horn was sure to kill one of them when launching a surprise attack, and then start a fight with the second Su-30MK2 from a relatively equal position. He was confident that he could kill Lin in a one-on-one situation.
child.
This is indeed how the situation has developed.
The timing chosen by Horn to attack was very tricky. Lin Xiaotong had just completed his attack on the road, and Wei Lan had just entered the irreversible stage of the attack route. In other words, Horn was conducting a trailing attack on Wei Lan at this time, and Lin Xiaotong was unable to provide cover for Wei Lan. Wei Lan
The airspeed, altitude, aircraft attitude, etc. are all at a disadvantage.
Horn can attack Cerulean very calmly.
In order to ensure nothing went wrong, he chose to use a missile attack method and launched an infrared-guided combat missile towards Wei Lan.
He used radar to continuously scan Wei Lan and bit into Wei Lan.
If the infrared-guided combat missile attack fails, he will use the cannon, and then directly move the focus of the radar scan forward to Lin Xiaotong in front. At this time, the distance between Lin Xiaotong and Wei Lan is only seven or eight kilometers.
Horn made a good calculation. According to his attack sequence and attack plan, Lin Xiaotong and Wei Lan were in danger.
The attack distance is only more than two kilometers. After the infrared guided combat missile is launched, it only takes a few seconds to cover two kilometers, which is about the time it takes to blink your eyes twice and take two breaths.
The hit rate is 99.9%, which is the hit rate of infrared guided combat missiles. In addition, the current Wei Lan simply does not have enough power and altitude to evade.
The probability of being hit is infinitely close to 100%.
Wei Lan also saw it. The moment the radar warning suddenly sounded, he was stunned for a moment. By the time he realized that he had to immediately leave the attack route and perform evasive maneuvers, it was already too late.
If he can react immediately, then the probability of being hit is 99.9%. If he doesn't react immediately, then unless a miracle happens.
The miracle has come.
A Su-30MK2 dived diagonally from high altitude at a speed of 1,300 kilometers per hour. When the infrared-guided combat missile was only 800 meters away from Azure, the Su-30MK2 passed through it, carrying the
Huge kinetic energy.
It was the No. 17 Su-30MK2 driven by Li Hai.
Wei Lan broke out in a cold sweat. When he saw the number "17" on the side of the nose of the Su-30MK2, he felt as if an angel had come down to save him from danger.
Li Hai clearly saw the infrared guided combat missile at the two o'clock position. He didn't need to calculate it. He didn't have the time to calculate it, but he was very sure that if he kept the current flight parameters, he would be with him in the next second.
The infrared guided combat missile collided.
He tightened the launch button, adjusted the course slightly with the joystick, the aiming point moved accordingly, and pressed the launch button by feeling.
He had no more aircraft cannon shells and only four air-to-air missiles left to use. He chose dogfighting missiles and did not use airborne radar fire control locking. He used the missiles as direct-fire ammunition such as aircraft fire.
The PL-9 combat missile flew out, entered from the side, accurately hit the infrared guided combat missile, and exploded instantly.
At this time, Su-30MK2 No. 17 inevitably flew by. The distance was too close and the speed was too fast. Li Hai had no way to recover.
The prefabricated fragments generated by the explosion crackled on the fuselage, and several pieces of shrapnel were concentrated on the canopy.
A fragment the size of two fingers hit the cockpit glass on the right side of Dang Weimin, and spider web-like cracks immediately appeared there, which shocked Dang Weimin.
He quickly calmed down and quickly checked the various systems of the aircraft.
Li Hai did not have time to pay attention to the status of the aircraft, so the danger was not resolved at this time.
He turned to the right. The Su-30MK2's nose directionality was not as good as that of the MiG-35, but Li Hai had made preparations in advance, and at this moment the MiG-35's course was consistent with the infrared guided combat missile.
.
The most critical point is that Horn never imagined that such a scene would occur. He had fought many battles, but he had never seen his own aircraft used as a shield to rescue friendly aircraft.
Horn could tell at a glance that the combat missile launched by Li Hai was just trying his luck. Li Hai's real idea was still to use the characteristics of his fighter plane and even the fuselage to rescue him.
At higher speeds, the infrared signature produced by the engine nozzle becomes more obvious. Infrared-guided combat missiles are passive guided missiles, and they will attack wherever the infrared signature is the most obvious.
A scene that Horn had neither imagined nor imagined happened so vividly, right in front of his eyes.
When he recovered from the shock, he had decided to give up attacking the established target, and instead pointed his finger at the third Su-30MK2 that had just appeared. He realized very clearly that if he did not attack this target first,
If a fighter plane is shot down, he may not be able to return.
I have to say that his reaction was very fast.
Li Hai quickly completed the turn and the fire control radar quickly locked on. There was not enough margin when the distance was very close. He could only launch the fighting missile in a hurry, so that there was not enough time for the fighting missile to know the target information to attack.
This combat missile missed the target, and Horn began to make evasive maneuvers before the radar warning sounded, because he saw a flash of fire under the wing of No. 17 Su-30MK2.
This is combat experience.
The best ammunition at this distance is aircraft cannon shells. At a distance of several hundred meters, direct-fire ammunition can better implement the pilot's combat thinking than combat missiles.
The pilot of Su-30MK2 No. 17 was definitely a veteran and could not make such a low-level mistake. Therefore, Horn quickly judged that Li Hai had no more cannon shells.
The reactions of both sides are lightning-fast. Sure enough, the fight between masters usually depends on seconds to win or lose.
Horn easily avoided the fighting missile, and Li Hai was not surprised by this. Sometimes being close is not a good thing. When the target performs a large overload maneuver to evade, the fighting missile usually requires a greater overload to maintain the pursuit state.
Once the design envelope is exceeded, the combat missile will self-destruct.
This is undoubtedly the case at present.
With Horn's afterburner climbing altitude, the MiG-35's climb rate is actually stronger than that of the Su-30MK2.
If he is allowed to regain the dominant position so easily, the sea supplements and tie rod fees Li Hai has earned in the past few months will be in vain.
Li Hai expected that the MiG-35 would react like this. He had already prepared it in advance and decided to adopt a new attack method to eliminate the target...
