Wang Yu rotated the joystick in a circle for the last time to confirm that the airfoil movement of the airframe was normal.
The flaps are extended, the radar is working normally, the instrument display is normal, the checklist has no errors, the trim is correct, the navigation system is calibrated, the pitot tube is heated normally, the oxygen flow rate is stable, the weapon system is good, countermeasures are activated, and the ejection seat safety is turned off
, the engine speed is normal, the fuel level display is normal, and you can take off!
"The screen has been adjusted to the situational awareness interface and confrontation interface."
Liu Lingxin said to him in the back seat.
"Okay then, let's start accelerating."
Wang Yu stepped on the rudders with his left and right feet to activate the fighter's wheel brakes, and then pushed the throttle to the military push position.
"Brake, refuel, and the speed will rise normally. Release the brake and accelerate to take off."
After confirming that the engine thrust increased normally, he released the wheel brake and continued to push the accelerator to the afterburner position with his left hand.
The fighter jet erupted with a deafening roar and began to accelerate on the runway.
The speed quickly rose to over fifty knots, and Wang Yu turned off the front wheel steering safety. At this time, the aerodynamic effect was already very obvious, and the fighter's rudder was responsible for stabilizing the fighter on the center line of the runway.
The surrounding scenery turned into rapidly sweeping shadows. At the right speed, Wang Yu pulled the joystick, and the fighter plane loaded with ammunition raised its nose and lifted off the ground.
Just as he was leaving the ground, Luo Yu and Murong Lan also slid onto the runway and began to accelerate and take off.
Within one minute, all three fighter planes of the Ghost Squadron had completed takeoff.
"Ghost Squadron, this is the Eye in the Sky, the Orillia Federation Air Force air surveillance and early warning platform. We will provide you with intelligence support."
When the squadron formed the formation after takeoff, the communication of the early warning aircraft rang on the corresponding channel, "There are many enemy planes, we must rely on you this time... First, attack the enemy bomber group closest to us, bearing 090, distance 27
Nautical miles, altitude 6,000, four B-52 bombers, and three F-5 Tiger fighter jets provide escort for them, speed up, buy time for our other fighters to take off, and cannot let them threaten our base."<
/p>
"This is the Ghost Squadron, got it." Wang Yu replied.
He thought for a moment, and then said proactively: "But... you'd better prepare our reward first."
"Then we have to wait until you complete the mission and come back smoothly."
"Oh, we will shoot them down before you even react." Wang Yu told the intelligence officer of the early warning aircraft while letting the squadron's aircraft speed up.
"Don't worry about remuneration. We will keep our promise and everything will be as stipulated in the contract, and there will be additional bonuses." The intelligence officer of the early warning aircraft said, "We can use any method you want, even gold." p>
"Since you said so, let's take a good look at it." Wang Yu ended the communication.
The three Ghost Squadron fighters just flew away in the direction where the enemy planes appeared. At the base behind them, other fighters belonging to the Orillia Air Force had just begun to take off.
"Although the targets are slow bombers, don't get too close. Be careful of the risk of them being killed when shooting them down." After taking off, Luo Yu took the initiative and said, "We'd better shoot down their escort planes first. Although the enemy uses
It’s an F-5, but don’t take it lightly.”
"Yeah, look around, no one would be willing to skydive in this environment."
Liu Lingxin looked around the surrounding environment through the cockpit - in the winter in this far north, the mountains are covered with snow, and as far as the eye can see are lofty mountains and vast white.
It may look beautiful from the air, but no one would want to experience it in person.
"The feeling of parachuting in the snowy mountains..." Liu Lingxin whispered: "It's really enough to experience it only once, Yu, today is a pure air battle, the responsibility of not letting us fall into the valley is left to you."
"You should have confidence in my technology." Wang Yu replied with a smile.
"Hey, I'm used to it." Liu Lingxin became happy: "I have to remind you before every battle, doesn't it feel very romantic?"
What kind of romance is this...
"In short, we give priority to the escort fighters. Three of them are exactly three of us. One fighter plane can deal with one escort." Wang Yu immediately began to assign tasks. "Pay attention to the information on the data link. We will try to lock them separately. I guess today
There are many enemies, and there may be more enemy planes behind us, so don’t waste ammunition.”
"No. 2 understands."
"No. 3 understands, um... but it's better not to waste too much time with the escort aircraft."
"The bomber's size and bomb load mean that they cannot maneuver on a large scale, so even if we are entangled by the escort aircraft, there is still no problem in taking the time to fire a radar bomb at the bomber." Wang Yu replied: "According to this
Your skills shouldn’t be a problem.”
Wang Yu had said so, and Luo Yu and Murong Lan naturally had no other problems, so they immediately disbanded the formations, and the Ghost Squadron began to climb into a combat posture.
"The enemy escort aircraft should have noticed you." Our own early warning aircraft Eye in the Sky said at this time, "They are coming towards you."
"Relax." Wang Yu didn't know whether he said it to the intelligence officer or to other teammates.
Since the enemy planes were already very close after takeoff, it was too late to carry out the BVR phase of firing missiles at each other by the time they were at about the same altitude. In addition, both sides were flying head-on, and the distance was reduced to the point where close combat was possible in a short period of time.
.
The weather on this day was not very good, with thick clouds and goose-feather-like snowflakes floating below, so everyone tried to stay above the clouds as much as possible, but as the air battle progressed, both sides would eventually enter the clouds or even fight below the clouds.
In this way, the terrain and weather will severely test the pilot's skills.
The opponent seems to know that it is a mercenary pilot taking off to meet the enemy at this time, so even if his fighter plane is not outstanding, he is very confident in winning the battle.
After discovering the traces of Wang Yu and the others, they decisively abandoned the target they wanted to escort and accelerated to meet them.
The distance shortened instantly, and in the blink of an eye we were within sight.
The weather under the clouds was not good, but the visibility above the clouds was still sufficient. Under Eileen's instructions, Wang Yu took the lead in discovering the enemy aircraft and establishing a lock.
The throttle was pushed full, the fighter jet broke the sound barrier, the magazine opened, and then...
"Ghost No. 1, Fox3."
The target he chose was an enemy plane leading the attack.
The fighter plane has already exceeded the speed of sound at the time of launch, so the missile skips the time to break through the sound barrier in the power stage, directly increases to the maximum speed, turns on the guidance head, and automatically pounces towards the enemy plane.
According to the information on the data link, Wang Yu discovered that Luo Yu and Murong Lan had successfully established a lock on the other two enemy aircraft.
At the moment when Wang Yu's missile left the frame, Luo Yu's voice came over the radio.
"No. 2, Fox3!"
Compared with enemy aircraft, the outstanding performance of the three fighter planes of the Ghost Squadron and the special abilities of Zhan Ji played a major role at this time. They completed the three elements of air combat to defeat the enemy: discover first, lock first, and launch first. p>
Subsequently, three missiles were launched towards three targets.
The enemy did not expect to be attacked so quickly at this first time. The locked alarm of their radar only sounded for a moment and then converted to a high-frequency missile approaching alarm, catching them off guard.
But after all, they are the pilots of the Asia Federation, and they immediately began to evade. It stands to reason that they have never encountered such a scene. They only need to pull away to the left and right and perform three or nine high shots, combined with decoy bombs, to make it... p>
But in the next moment, three missiles hit the three fighter planes that could not escape.
Yes, there was nothing wrong with their evasive methods, but they made the mistake of ignoring the high-speed performance of the missiles. These missiles, which surpassed the speed of sound when launched, used the power stage to reach the peak of their speed, crossing over in just a moment.
The short distance between the two sides was reduced - when the enemy plane first started to evade, the missile had already swooped towards the fighter plane's position.
The enemy pilot only had time to let out a brief scream before disconnecting communications one after another.
When faced with a fighter jet like the F-5, an air-to-air missile with a strong charge can completely kill it with one shot.
As long as there is a hit, the chance of the enemy pilot being able to parachute becomes extremely small.
Three fighter planes poured out black smoke and flames as they crashed into the snow-capped mountains below.
The enemy bombers were confident that their escort aircraft could protect their safety, or at least delay them until they dropped their bombs. However, they did not expect that all three escort aircraft would be shot down in just one encounter.
After shooting down three escort aircraft, the Ghost Squadron did not even need to adjust its flight path and continued to rush towards the remaining bombers at supersonic speed.
"Needless to say, when it comes to attacking bombers, their mobility is just like that. Let's maintain our offensive posture. I have two bombers and you have one each." Wang Yu quickly formulated tactics.
"Can you take two?" Luo Yu asked quickly.
"Don't worry, it's no problem."
"Okay, No. 3 and I will be responsible for the left and right sides, and I'll leave the middle two to you."
Needless to say, the cooperation of the Ghost Squadron went without saying. After a brief discussion, they determined the attack strategy.
The three fighters did not give the bomber any chance to react, and quickly approached and opened fire - the B-52's huge bomb load and bulky body became the key to dragging them down at this time, facing the missiles roaring at supersonic speeds.
They don't even have any power to evade.
Since there is no armor, there is no way to resist a direct missile attack, so after the missile hits, it basically loses the ability to continue flying - one was directly hit in the cockpit, and the other was torn apart by the explosion of the missile.
The fuselage and one wing were torn directly off the fuselage.
The three bombers suddenly tilted left and right and fell to the ground.
After Wang Yu fired the missile, he immediately switched to the cannon and aimed at the other B-52 he was responsible for.
At supersonic speed, the fighter jet approached within the range of the cannon at lightning speed. Wang Yu pulled the trigger, and more than 3,000 cannon tracer rounds per minute pulled out a chain of fire and scraped across the fuselage.
And easily "pulled" off the wings and engines of the last bomber.
Before the bomber could react, Wang Yu's fighter had quickly detached. The bomber let out a dying "wail" after its structure was damaged by the cannon. The fuselage made a creaking noise, and the harsh friction of the engine resounded through the sky.<
/p>
A moment later, huge explosions occurred one after another in the ice-covered and snow-covered valley, even somewhat dispelling the raging wind and snow.
"Take your mounts and go to hell together." Murong Lan said coldly in the channel.
"That's a good sentence." Liu Lingxin nodded seriously.
What kind of war madness is exposed?
"All four bombers and escort planes were shot down."
Wang Yu decided to ignore the voice in his team's channel and shouldered the responsibility of captain to report to the early warning aircraft.
"Well done! Your strength is really beyond our imagination!" the intelligence officer of the early warning aircraft responded with a surprised tone: "It is indeed a team sent by the world's largest security company! Everyone is here, and the first batch of enemy aircraft groups have been completely destroyed.
The Ghost Squadron was shot down, and now all personnel are intercepting the second batch of enemy planes. They are fifteen nautical miles away and have escort aircraft."
Upon hearing the notice from the early warning aircraft, the mercenary pilots in the team channel burst out with various exclamations.
"Ah? The Ghost gang killed all the first batch of enemy planes?"
"Why are these people's hands so fast?"
Of course, you can also contact Wang Yu and the others directly.
"Ghost, leave some for us."
Wang Yu responded without any fluctuation in his tone: "There is no way, now is the time when people will be punished by heaven and earth if they don't do it for themselves."
Luo Yu asked curiously: "I don't remember that you value the results of battles so much?"
Wang Yu replied casually: "I have no choice but to become a mercenary. After all, the shooting down just now has already earned me the down payment for a house in the capital..."
Luo Yu: "...ah?"
Wang Yu laughed and said: "This good thing of experiencing the fun of flying, being able to fight in the air, and making money doesn't happen all the time."
"Okay, it seems that entrusting us with this task is indeed the wisdom of our superiors." Luo Yu said helplessly.
In short, due to the outstanding performance of the Ghost Squadron, the first batch of enemy planes were shot down. Now they are heading towards the second batch of enemy planes. However, other fighter planes that subsequently took off from the Panshi Base were still a little confused at the first time.
, but now seeing the Ghost Squadron, who are also mercenaries, solving the first batch of targets so easily, I have a strange thought that "the enemy doesn't seem to be that good".
So in order to prevent the ghosts from continuing to expand the results and make a lot of money in this battle, these mercenaries were crying and howling in the channel, pushing the throttle full and rushing towards the second batch of enemy planes.
Everyone is working hard to get results.
But I just hope they don't underestimate the enemy. After all, the first batch of enemy planes that were shot down only reacted a little slower, and their true level is still unknown. After learning that they encountered resistance, the remaining Aisiya pilots will definitely
Be more alert.
Therefore, if you underestimate the enemy, you will suffer losses.
