Under the words of encouragement and blessing from the old admiral, the tower notified all fighter planes to start taking off in order.
As a result, these imperial fighter planes that had been waiting for a long time finally took off from the dome base again.
The emergency takeoff uses all the runways and part of the taxiways owned by the base. In many cases, one runway will accommodate three or four fighters taking off at the same time. Without waiting for the wake to completely dissipate, subsequent fighters will get on the runway and start accelerating.
The busy scene on the runway and taxiway continued for a while, but soon only the ground crews were left standing next to the empty ammunition, fuel trucks and some equipment, watching the fighters in charge of the team leave.
They have done their best, and the next step is to rely on the pilots.
Within just a few minutes, all the fighter planes had left the field.
In order to prevent the large formation from being attacked by the firepower of the air fortress when flying, everyone omitted the process of forming in the airspace near the base after takeoff. Instead, they dispersed into squadrons and rushed directly to the front line after takeoff.
In this way, they rush to fight in batches from different routes. Even if Asia's air fortress wants to launch an interception attack midway, a single attack can only affect one squadron at most, and it will not have much attack effect.
.
Naturally, the early warning aircraft was not idle either.
The professionals on board have collected general information about the Asia attack based on several long-distance strikes launched by the Asia air fortress. While using this information to update the database, they also adjusted the early warning aircraft system.
At this time, they can use the data link to display on the situational awareness screen of friendly forces a warning when the Asia Air Fortress launches an attack, as well as the expected hit point and explosion range of the upcoming attack.
In other words, when an attack comes, the pilots on the fighter plane can understand the specific situation of the air fortress attack by looking at this information, and then selectively carry out the most appropriate evasive maneuver.
This can be regarded as a small boost to the confidence of all imperial officers and soldiers.
Of course, no matter how nervous everyone involved in the battle was because they were about to face a powerful enemy or face life and death, they had only one thought in their minds, which was to use all their strength to unleash firepower on Asia's aerial fortress.
This aerial fortress is obviously Asia's last remaining resort.
As long as it is killed, then just like what the old admiral said before they took off, they will protect the future.
While the empire was acting according to the plan, the Aisians were naturally not idle either.
They did not have any intention of retreating because the drone group sent in the early stage was completely wiped out.
The aerial fortress still maintained its original speed, flying steadily towards the direction of Stonehenge.
Following the air fortress about twenty nautical miles away was a transport fleet full of Asia's landing troops.
This group of Asia paratroopers is indeed feeling uncomfortable. Their original plan was to take the opportunity to enter when the drone swarm disrupted the empire's air power and then airborne to fight. However, they did not expect that the drone was killed so quickly, and they could not give up on capturing it.
Stonehenge's plan can only allow the transport aircraft to maintain the most economical cruising speed and fly slowly behind the aerial fortress.
This transport plane is of the type that has a long endurance and can fly for more than ten hours, so there is no need to worry about running out of fuel at this time. However, the Asia paratrooper who has been suffering on the transport plane for several hours does not think so.
The longer the time drags on, the worse their combat effectiveness will be - if it drags on for a while longer, their mental state may no longer be able to support their parachute mission.
According to the analysis from the empire, if the Aisians are smart, they will not put these troops into the dome base. Instead, they will use the powerful firepower advantage of the air fortress to wipe out the anti-air defense of the dome base and then dispatch transport planes.
Directly let the airborne troops break into Stonehenge and forcibly seize control of this super weapon.
In order to prevent the Aisian people from succeeding in this plan, the empire deployed most of its ground troops at Stonehenge.
However, due to the fear of damaging the structure of Stonehenge - those messy pipes and cables are related to the normal operation of Stonehenge, it is impossible to use heavy weapons to defend Stonehenge. The empire itself also has some rat-proof weapons, so the Airsians airborne
After the troops fell, it was probably a small arms battle with the imperial troops.
However, the empire obviously does not intend to put all its chips on the success of the Stonehenge defenders in resisting the Aisian invasion. The empire is more willing to directly use the method of removing fuel from the cauldron to prevent the Aisians from landing.
After all, for Asia, destroying the dome base or the imperial defenses around Stonehenge is not their ultimate combat goal. The core of their combat plan is to seize control of Stonehenge.
Therefore, this airborne force is actually a key part of their plan.
If they lose the soldiers of the airborne troops and have only one air fortress left, how can they possibly successfully capture Stonehenge?
Killing all these transport planes will directly destroy the core of Asia's combat plan.
Naturally, the empire also saw the key issues in Asia's plan, and also saw that the existence of airborne troops was actually the weakest link in Asia's entire combat operation.
Then, there is no reason for the empire not to take action on this weakest link.
Asia naturally also knows where the key points of their mission are. Those transport planes are hiding behind the air fortress and within the fire defense range of the air fortress.
Therefore, the empire has no way to simply bypass the air fortress and directly attack these transport aircraft.
However, if the defense forces of the air fortress have been entangled, they may not be able to protect the transport aircraft.
Therefore, according to the plan, at the same time as the next attack on Asia Air Fortress, there will be an elite air force - two squadrons from Gensokyo, Polaris and another two-plane squadron, a total of five fighter planes.
While the Asia Air Fortress was resisting the empire's attack, it quietly launched a thunderous attack on those transport planes, shooting them all down from the sky.
It is expected that those transport opportunities will be escorted - the Aisians will not be stupid enough to leave the core of their mission behind. Even if they are protected by an air fortress, at least part of the defense force should be deployed - but because of the distance at this time
It is far away, and Asia's defense force may be radar stealth fighters, so it has not been detected yet.
But even if there are guards, with the strength of Polaris and another squadron, it is not impossible to complete this secret mission.
…………
Enough talk, after a period of time, the empire's troops have arrived at the location where the attack is expected to begin.
More than a dozen fighter formations in the air will attack the air fortress from all directions, and the fleet on the sea has also adjusted its course and is about to enter the range of its own weapons - at the same time, they have also entered the attack range of the air fortress, which
Apparently they have been discovered, and the long-range attacks on Imperial fighter planes have also been reduced a lot.
While they are adjusting their goals, it is the time for the Empire to launch an attack.
The leaders of each unit sent signals that they were in position to the early warning aircraft coordinating the battlefield.
"Soldiers, it's time."
After a moment of silence in the channel - it was obvious that the early warning aircraft needed to confirm the attack order with the general headquarters. The intelligence officer on the early warning aircraft said to all combat units:
"The headquarters informed that the general offensive has officially begun. All units will act according to plan and put out all firepower!
"Don't let Asia's air fortress get close to Stonehenge!"
The pilots from the Gensokyo base will assume the most critical task of approaching the close attack in this general attack - only they have the intelligence and skills to judge the Stonehenge attack and evade it in advance.
Especially the kind of laser weapon that is so intimidating that it can completely vaporize a fighter jet at a close range. If ordinary pilots were to get close, they would die without knowing how.
These elites had already guessed that they would be the ones responsible for the main attack in the end.
Therefore, they - including pilots and machine girls, have long been mentally prepared for any outcome, such as death in battle - even if they are very confident in their skills, they cannot guarantee that everything will go smoothly in the process of challenging the air fortress.
In addition to the main attack, they also play a role in luring the enemy. When they approach the air fortress, they will inevitably be recognized as the main target by the Aisians, so a large amount of firepower will attack them.
Then, friendly fighter planes attacking from a distance will be safer.
Perhaps, this is indeed an unfair combat arrangement.
But the pilots of Gensokyo know in their hearts that no one else can undertake this kind of mission except them.
If they don't go on board, should ordinary pilots be allowed on?
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
"Everyone, check your status individually and have the squadron leader report to me."
Captain Zhang said to all the team members in the channel.
Once they start attacking, they need to rush into the visual range of the air fortress in the shortest possible time. They will face overwhelming fire interception. Even if a coordinated attack by friendly forces can alleviate some of the pressure, it is still very difficult.
So at this time it is necessary to ensure that everything is in normal condition.
The pilots and pilots began to check their fighter planes and their physical conditions simultaneously.
This check won't take long.
Captain Zhang also led a squadron, and he was the first to report.
"This is the Cyclops Squadron. Everything is normal and we can go into battle."
Other squadrons followed.
"This is Hellfire Squadron, everything is normal."
"Sentinel Squadron, the mission can begin."
"Snowdrop Squadron, the status is normal."
Wang Yu made the last report: "Polaris Squadron is normal, but we and Snow Lotus Squadron are still in motion. We have not yet reached the attack position. After all, our mission is special, so we will not start fighting at the same time as everyone else."
If you want to attack those early warning aircraft, you must maintain a stealthy raid, so the two squadrons are required to take a long route to directly attack the transport aircraft and its escort units from the side, so Wang Yu and the others lowered their altitude from the beginning, regardless of fuel.
At this time, they still have some distance to go before they can reach the starting point of the attack.
Flying at low altitude is old-fashioned, but it does work.
But those are not important, anyway, they cannot start fighting until the front line begins.
"Copy that." Captain Zhang immediately replied, "Then you decide the time to attack on your own, and we will attack first."
Without any more gossip, after the captain finished speaking, he took his gargoyle squadron and the other two squadrons, pushed the accelerator to full speed, and galloped towards the direction of Asia Sky Fortress.
"I wish everyone good luck." Liu Lingxin muttered silently in the back seat, "I also hope that everything goes well for us."
"That's true. It's not easy to get to know everyone. I don't want to lose a few familiar faces when I go back." Irene also said - she was referring to our fellow robot girls with different personalities. Irene also became acquainted with everyone after joining the base.
Met some friends.
"It will go well. This is just a difficult test for us." Luo Yu comforted her and said, "But no matter how difficult it is, it is just a test, and we have always been able to pass any 'exam' smoothly."
Wang Yu did not interrupt the conversation between the two girls.
He controlled the fighter plane to fly about thirty meters above the sea.
At the same time, he was still paying attention to the battle situation in another direction.
Naturally, it is impossible for the rest of the Gensokyo Brigade to successfully approach Asia's air fortress.
Sure enough, they were surrounded by enemies.
This is an unexpected fighter force.
It was not the drone group that Asia was proud of, but a formation of fighter planes flown by human pilots. They flew out from nowhere and stood in front of the Gensokyo pilots who wanted to approach the air fortress.
.
Moreover, the number of this fighter plane team is also quite large. There are a total of eleven enemy planes in the entire flight formation.
Among them, the cross is a very rare Su-47.
The leading fighter plane has a very peculiar structure.
Under the observation of the machine girl, the Gensokyo pilots present were a little surprised.
This hostile fighter has a slender nose, canards located under the cockpit, a wide fuselage behind the canards, forward-swept wings that are somewhat thin compared to the fuselage structure, twin tail fins that are tilted inward at a large angle, and of course
The most identifiable thing is the thick air inlet with clear geometric shape located in the lower middle of the fuselage, and the matching engine nozzle that is slightly thicker than the nose.
The entire fuselage already looks very special, not to mention the thick square black device carried on the back of the aircraft, which makes this fighter plane look even more peculiar - that thing should be a weapon.
"What kind of fighter plane is this?"
Captain Zhang was shocked and confused.
But to be able to fly a fighter plane of this level, the enemy must be very difficult.
We have just started the general attack on the air fortress and we encountered this kind of enemy. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
The captain immediately notified the early warning aircraft of the news, and then notified his teammates to prepare for battle. If you like the War Queen Dances in the Blue Sky, please save it: (www.sodu777.net) The War Queen Dances in the Blue Sky is updated by Search Novel Network
