Just when the ground air defense forces of the green side were in chaos, in the sky, the F16V fighter jets of the green side suddenly found that the group of red side fighter jets they were clinging to suddenly pulled up at a large angle, and at the same time began to release heat.
Lure bomb.
Since the aircraft on both sides were not far apart, the green side's F16V was immediately startled by this large-angle maneuver and the release of heat decoys.
The smoke screen of the heat decoy bomb caused the F16V following the red team's fleet to lose its target instantly, and all the red team's aircraft disappeared from sight.
This F16V is not a vegetarian. It is the latest generation of F16V from the green side. It has just been upgraded. It is an air combat aircraft specially built by the blue side to help the green side and is aimed at the red side.
In the past, Green Side used two models of F16A/B. After the upgrade, the radar was first replaced.
Everyone knows that radar is the eyes of the aircraft. The F16V is equipped with the new AN/APG83 active phased array radar from Rollup Grumman. It can track more than 20 targets at the same time, and the detection range can reach more than 370 kilometers.
It has extremely strong anti-interference ability and is said to have a certain ability to detect stealth fighters.
Secondly, the infrared detection equipment and aiming device are aggravated. If the radar is the eye of the aircraft, then it can only be said to be one of the eyes.
The other is the infrared detector and irst system, which is called the infrared search and tracking system. It relies on infrared rays to detect the presence of targets. This equipment will pose a major threat to traditional radar-stealth fighters, and the F16V can be upgraded to
The famous sniper targeting pod carried on board allows pilots to see more clearly and shoot more accurately.
Another thing is to replace the flight helmet. This thing is said to cost up to 400,000 US dollars. It can be used with the latest aim-9X Sidewinder short-range missile, which can see where it hits.
Later, the mount was upgraded, and up to 16 AIM-120 medium and long-range air-to-air missiles can be mounted at a time, which enhanced its ability to sustain air combat.
Of course, the blue team also said that it can add an electronic warfare pod to the green team's F16V to achieve the effect of the plastic bug roarer, but this will not be available until Lockheed Martin has completed testing. Therefore, for the time being,
, at this time, the Green F16V does not yet have this electronic interference function.
The red team came over this time with 6 J10Cs.
The J10C is the red team's air superiority aircraft. It was originally designed to seize air supremacy and conduct homeland air defense to intercept enemy aircraft. The J10C is an upgraded version that has upgraded some multi-purpose functions, such as ground attack.
But in fact, this aircraft still prefers air superiority. After all, there are certain shortcomings in range and load capacity.
It is said that the F16V is a targeted fighter aircraft carefully built by the blue team for the green team. The J10C does not have an overwhelming advantage in front of it. Who is more powerful in an aerial encounter depends on the pilot's ability.
Frightened by the red fighter, one of the green pilots even subconsciously pressed the launch button.
A close-range AIM-9X "Sidewinder" combat projectile was launched from under the belly of the aircraft.
This behavior shocked other F16Vs in the same group.
You know, they haven't been doing this kind of interception for a day or two. In the past, red planes often came here to fly around, and they were exhausted every time and scrambled to intercept them.
It's just that the interception was an interception. Everyone flew with each other for a while, and then shouted and talked. They never tried to fire live ammunition at each other to attack.
You know, this is a red line!
Once stepped on, the next step will definitely be a war!
"Eagle 3, I'm fucking your mother! What are you doing!"
"You fired a missile at him!"
"I'm sorry...I was startled, I was too nervous..."
Complaints remain complaints, but the team leader is still very sober.
He knew that the red fighter planes could not do this for no reason.
Either he is provoking, or he is trying to cause trouble.
He could almost conclude that the red side was up to something.
Therefore, he immediately ordered the left and right groups of the six F16Vs in the formation to maneuver at large angles from both sides, taking advantage of the excellent maneuverability of the F16Vs to evade and wait for opportunities to find traces of the opponent's fighters, while his own tactical group in the middle followed suit.
, pull up at the same elevation angle as the red side, and then sweep back to find the opponent's traces.
Because in an air battle, tail biting is an advantage, as it is equivalent to occupying an attacking position.
At this time, the red team took advantage of their formation's unpreparedness, suddenly made a big maneuver and then disappeared, and also released a heat decoy bomb, obviously trying to bite its own tail.
The six F16Vs quickly maneuvered in three directions according to the leader's request, trying to find the opponent's position while fighting for power.
However, at the same time as they were maneuvering, instructions from the ground command center came over the radio, informing them that the Red Army had launched an attack on their own naval port, and ordered the air eviction unit to immediately attack the Red Army and retaliate in kind.
When the leader of the green formation heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Deadly!"
Only this time did he understand why the red side suddenly made such a move.
But everything seems to be too late.
Less than ten seconds later, he saw the crew on his right being destroyed by airspace.
The red side has taken the initiative to launch an attack.
He tried his best to turn around and finally saw a J10C behind him biting him.
This made him feel like his spine was trembling.
After all, he was an experienced F16 pilot, so he tried his best to get rid of the tail bite by doing big roller movements.
In aerial combat, the large roller movement can be used to advance and attack, and to retreat and defend. It can especially play a certain role in close combat. The defender can use this maneuver to allow the pursuer to rush forward and enter the attack range.
However, the actions he made did not seem to have much effect on the J10C behind him. After all, the J10C itself is an air superiority aircraft.
When the F-leader's 16V made a big roller movement, the J10C pilot immediately stopped the fuel and controlled his flight speed. Then he locked the unlucky F16V in the fire control radar and gently pressed the missile launch button.
He said softly: "Goodbye!"
Two PL-11 close-range combat bombs rushed out from under the belly of the J-10C and rushed towards the F16V, which was still rolling in front.
Because the distance was too close and completely within the no-escape zone, the two F16Vs in front did not even have time to react before they were hit by missiles and disintegrated in the air.
The leader died, and the remaining F16Vs were suddenly frightened to death.
When it comes to fighting spirit, they really don't have it.
The F16V is indeed a very good aircraft, but these green pilots have no psychological preparation at all. After being attacked, they did not even use basic two-plane cover tactics. They only thought about maneuvering and evading on their own, without any tactical preparation.
Cooperate.
In less than ten minutes, only clouds of smoke were left in the sky that had no time to dissipate. All six Green fighter jets were shattered in the air, leaving them without even a chance to parachute.
