Section 293 - Air Confrontation in the South China Sea
After careful identification, he found that the areas of the main wings and horizontal and vertical stabilizers of the two F-35s seemed to be larger. When the radar could not completely confirm, Lin Mo quickly confirmed the opponent's aircraft based on the difference in aerodynamic shape.
model.
Check the fuel tank, OK, the auxiliary fuel tank is enough to fly back and forth! Lin Mo has no intention of throwing away the auxiliary fuel tank directly, otherwise this amount of fuel alone will not be enough to fly back after the fight. [..com]
The twin engines are fuel hungry, not to mention the improved WS-10 Taihang turbofan engine. Although the fuel consumption has improved compared to previous versions, it still consumes a lot of money. The fighter itself is not synonymous with economy and endurance.
The carrier-based model of the F-35 "Lightning II", the F-35C fighter jet, and Lin Mo's J-15 "Dark Halberd" are not only peers, but also enemies at the same time.
"Call the bridge and found two F-35 carrier-based aircraft. The coordinates were sent immediately. It is suspected that there are US military aircraft nearby."
Before Lin Mo finished speaking, he heard strong signal interference, and several indicator lights representing communication signals immediately changed from green to warning red.
Electronic jamming, which means that the other party has discovered itself and made a prompt decision to launch an ECM electronic jamming attack as soon as possible.
Lin Mo's hand had just left the signal button that sent the coordinates. Fortunately, the final confirmed coordinates had been sent before the opponent launched an electronic attack.
The satellite positioning system of the J-15 "Dark Halberd" sends confirmation coordinates to the Nandou military satellite system in space every 15 seconds, and a large number of buttons in the cockpit represent different functions. Some important and special functions do not have sub-menus.
In-depth selection. You can directly start it with one click. Although this is cumbersome, it can play a quick role in special circumstances, just like Lin Mo is doing now.
Height represents the first strike, and the first strike is the strongest. Lin Mo immediately pulled the joystick backward to obtain a large elevation angle climb. The opponent would not go to war without declaring it now, otherwise it would mean a formal war between China and the United States.
The fighters of both sides made climbing movements to face each other almost at the same time, accumulating a height advantage for their own fighters, which can be converted into speed energy at any time.
For jet fighters, speed is king, and they can gain additional acceleration while diving. This is also a tactical experience that continues in the era of propeller fighters.
"Did you see it? The 'Swallow' is a Chinese carrier-based aircraft. It's really strange that we can see it here, and there is only one of it."
Major George Eyre, code-named 'Rocky Mountain', a pilot of Team C of the newly arrived F-35 "Lightning II" experimental squadron of the USS George Washington nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, has just turned on the integrated electronic warfare system (iews)
Later, he secretly said to his comrades on the other plane.
Although the mainstream electronic warfare technology, the electronic warfare system based on radio frequency (RF) signals and the distributed aperture system based on infrared (IR) signals are in different electromagnetic fields.
o operate separately within the frequency range, but are cross-linked together through iews' powerful onboard integrated core processor icp. This greatly reduces the pilot's operational burden.
"I saw it! You launched an electronic warfare attack? Yes, there shouldn't be any adverse reactions, right?"
The pilot on another F-35 quickly turned on the anti-jamming mode after his comrade activated the electronic warfare attack mode.
Because the Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carrier has not yet been officially launched, the F-35 prepared for the Ford-class aircraft carrier was first installed on the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "USS George Washington", the largest Nimitz-class multi-purpose aircraft carrier in the United States and the world's largest.
Establish an experimental training squadron first.
"There will be no problem. The opponent only has one aircraft and we have two. Are you scared? Don't worry! I won't use the fire control radar to illuminate it. If the opponent is smarter, he should turn around and leave. Haha." "Rocky Mountain"
Major George Ayer still pulled the joystick and controlled the climb of the fighter aircraft slowly, and then said: "Did you see that the opponent is quite courageous and wants to compete with us a few times? It's great. Let's do it."
Let’s teach him a lesson!”
"Okay. Let the people on the USS George Washington see how powerful we are. I think this record will be very valuable." Major Minick Jerry, codenamed "Swallow", readily agreed. He wanted to know.
Let’s compare the latest aircraft carrier-based aircraft of the United States and the latest aircraft carrier-based aircraft of China. Who is better?
This is simply so meaningful.
"Call the USS George Washington and find a Chinese fighter jet. It should be a carrier-based aircraft. Please apply for testing."
"This is the USS George Washington. Attention Team C, this test is approved. Remember it is a test. It is forbidden to use weapons to attack."
"Team C confirms the order!"
Two F-35 "Lightning II" attacked the J-15 "Dark Halberd" carrier-based fighter jet that had reached an altitude of 13,000 meters in an enemy-facing attitude.
In fact, this kind of thinking of provoking China has been permeating the entire "George Washington" aircraft carrier fleet, and even people in the fleet think that occasionally provoking the Chinese side in a small way is harmless and is regarded as a normal thing.
As the first U.S. nuclear-powered aircraft carrier stationed outside the United States, the "George Washington" has been on combat readiness since it was stationed in Yokosuka in 2008. It is responsible for cruises throughout East Asia. It goes to sea as usual every year and regularly participates in regional
Military exercises.
Since 2010, the USS George Washington nuclear-powered aircraft carrier has intentionally or unintentionally used China's Yellow Sea to participate in US-ROK joint exercises to test China's limits and do everything possible to provoke it.
This is after the aircraft carrier "Kitty Hawk" tracked a "Han"-class attack nuclear submarine that China had completed training in the Yellow Sea, triggering a confrontation between the two air force fighter jets. Laos and the United States have continued to conduct tests, or simply limited provocations.
.
Well, Americans take this kind of behavior for granted as beating "Doudou" during eating and sleeping in daily life. As the new "Doudou", Lin Mo doesn't think that the dragon knight is someone who can be bullied."
"Doudou", anyone who despises the Dragon Knight is doomed to be unlucky.
"Look, 'Rocky Mountain'! It's coming towards us so fast. It's a twin-engine fighter jet with missiles mounted under the wings. Wait a minute, it's recognized. It's a C-802 anti-ship missile. This guy must have just been
Who did you cause trouble for?"
"I saw it, 'Swallow'. In fact, according to CIA information, the opponent's model is J-15, codenamed 'da'

d’, its weight seems to be slightly lighter than ours.”
"Doesn't this mean that the opponent's mobility is better than ours? Oh! This is really not good news!"
"That seems to be the case, but their radar and operating system are not as good as ours? Don't worry! This is just a game, let's say hello to him."
Boom!~
At an altitude of more than 4,000 meters, the three aircraft passed each other for the first time. No one made any special maneuvers or used any fire control system to lock onto the other.
At the moment of the intersection, the pilot of one of the F-35 "Lightning II" made a challenge gesture in the cockpit, and the pilot of the "Dark Halberd" decisively responded with a confirmation gesture.
The Empty Knight has his own principles. Even if he is an enemy, he will maintain the corresponding chivalrous demeanor when it is not a life and death duel.
However, both sides broke through the speed of sound at the same time, causing a violent vibration in the air and giving the other party a strong impact. It was obvious that the aircraft body was shaking abnormally, and the cockpit cover made a trembling rustling sound.
This is not playing house, there is still murderous intention hidden under the knight's demeanor.
"I locked oh no, it avoided!"
"Calm down, we still have a chance to use the fire control radar to play with it! Hurry up, it attacks with scissor lines, we use double scissors to lock it! Haha, scissors versus scissors, of course the dual scissors are more powerful, it
Do you think you are a kitchen knife?"
"Okay, no, no, no, the opponent has changed again. It's a high overload maneuver. Herbst reverses and recoils back. I'm locked. It's an aircraft cannon!"
"If you want to play with aerial cannons, are you bullying us because our carrier-based version does not have a heads-up display? Fortunately, we are not the B-type F-35 that needs external aerial cannons. What a cunning guy, 'Swallow'! My buddy, don't be afraid,
In terms of HMD, it is a good test subject. Yes, yes, yes, rush behind it and grab its tail. Just like the F-22, do a hook maneuver. No, no, no, damn, it can still see me.
How is it possible? I'm out of edge view range. Its radar can't be as advanced as ours, or its helmet can see behind just like ours. The CIA idiot is lazy again."
One of the F-35 "Lightning II" pilots, Major George Eyre, codenamed "Rocky Mountain", adapted to the situation and led his wingman, Major "Swallow" Minique Jerry, to use the usual attack moves of the F-22 "Raptor"
technique.
Three carrier-based aircraft belonging to the Chinese and American aircraft carriers started a fierce fight at an altitude of 7,000 meters. Two F-35 "Lightning II" chased the J-15 "Dark Halberd", but the "Dark Halberd"
Halberd" carried out super-mobile counterattacks from time to time. Neither side took the initiative to use real weapons to attack. They maintained restraint, as if it was a training contest between the two carrier-based aircraft, pestering each other one-on-two, and sonic booms were heard from time to time in the sky.
This is a battle between single-engine and twin-engine fighter jets, as well as a battle between carrier-based aircraft of the two countries.
In fact, the radar stealth performance of the F-35 "Lightning II" is better, and the airborne phased array radar of the J-15 is weaker. However, Lin Mo's light mirror technology has completely narrowed this technological gap.
Even if it is radar invisible, it cannot be optically invisible. It is undoubtedly visible in the light mirror technology in Lin Mo's cockpit, and is completely exploited by the aircraft cannon.
