Before you knew it, the radar warning device had stopped sounding the alarm.
This means that Wang Yu's fighter plane has completely escaped the radar range of the enemy LCA fighter plane.
In the simplest terms, the working principle of radar is to emit electromagnetic waves and then reflect them back when they hit something.
The radar of fighter aircraft is generally installed on the nose of the aircraft. The radar will emit electromagnetic waves forward to complete the detection. However, due to the pointing problem of the nose and the size of the radar, most airborne radars can only achieve a fixed range forward.
Detection, the general shape is a cone-shaped area with the nose as the vertex.
So at this time, Wang Yu had already flown the fighter plane out of the radar's scanning range from below.
The air pirate fighter's radar beam no longer scans his fighter, so the radar warning device no longer issues an alarm.
At the same time, Wang Yu's fighter mark was no longer visible on the LCA fighter's radar display.
But the LCA pilot was not panicked.
He felt that the reason why the radar could not detect it was because the target was still some distance away from him.
The radar used by the LCA I piloted is actually quite satisfactory, but due to the weird design and compatibility of the LCA, the radar's capabilities have shrunk a lot, and its anti-clutter and long-distance performance are extremely poor. p>
In addition, he does know that the MiG fighter he is chasing is at a low altitude. In addition to clutter, obstacles will also block the radar's detection, so it is normal that he cannot detect it. It is strange that he can detect it.
So he lowered the radar's detection angle, allowing him to detect aircraft in the airspace from the ground to his height at an altitude of three thousand meters, so that once the MiG-21 dared to climb, he could capture it immediately. p>
If the MiG-21 doesn't climb, that's even better. You can continue to close the distance until the clutter can no longer cover up the fighter's signal echo. At that time, you can easily take advantage of height and speed to shoot down the opponent.
.
If the MiG-21 pulls to both sides to turn and run, that would be a solution.
But in such a short period of time, it is difficult to escape the radar's 160-degree horizontal detection range.
This may be the best assumption he can make. After all, without the guidance of early warning aircraft or ground radar, completing the search by fighter planes alone is a very difficult job in itself.
"Kill this guy and go back. Those guys will never be able to underestimate my level again."
His little calculation was very good.
I even felt a little proud, thinking that after shooting down this fighter plane, I would be commended by the boss of the air pirate team, and even become a flight captain.
But in the blind spot of his vision, in the valley below, a silver shadow whizzed past.
In order to chase the target, he kept the accelerator in the military position, so the sound of the LCA engine drowned out the faint thunder-like sound coming from the valley below.
…………
Wang Yu successfully approached the enemy target.
As the distance between the two sides approached a certain level, Wang Yu also saw the presence of enemy planes.
Thanks to the good weather today, there were only a few clouds even here, so with the roar of the jet engine, Wang Yu easily found the LCA "Tejas" fighter jet flying forward at high altitude.
LCA flies at an altitude of about three thousand meters.
At this altitude, the fighter plane was like a small black dot, but Wang Yu's eyesight was excellent, and he clearly noticed this "foreign object" in the blue sky. This was the enemy that had been tracking him.
The air pirate's flying attitude proves that he has no idea that he has copied the front and bottom of him.
Under a high approach rate, the horizontal distance between the two parties shortens in an instant.
Wang Yu finally did a quick check on what was needed for the next attack.
The fire control safety has been moved to the unlocked position, and the weapon cannot be used without it.
The rocket nest is ready for launch. Now you only need to press the red button on the joystick to launch continuously.
The fighter's engine is running well. Although there is not much fuel left, it is enough.
"There's only one chance, let's get started."
At the moment when the LCA fighter flew over the head of the MiG-21, Wang Yu pushed forward with his left hand to full afterburner.
The fighter jet suddenly burst out with strong thrust, and flames shot out from the tail nozzle.
The originally relatively stable speed immediately began to climb.
"Eileen, help me determine the location of the enemy plane."
He shouted, and at the same time, he pulled back the right hand holding the operating lever.
The pull rod raises its head and the push rod lowers its head.
So with his pull, the fighter plane that was originally flying at high speed quickly raised its nose and turned upward.
Accelerate, go all out.
The engine afterburner thrust of the MiG-21bis is 70 kN. If the fighter is fully loaded with ammunition and fuel, the thrust-to-weight ratio is not excellent. However, Wang Yu’s current fighter has very little fuel left and only has two sets of rocket pods for additional weapons.
, thanks to the good aerodynamic shape and delta wing lift, the fighter can barely maintain a large angle of acceleration and climb, and also has a sufficient climb rate,
The original speed of the fighter plane was close to 400 knots. At this time, it suddenly started to climb, and the huge overload pressed on Wang Yu again. This was not the kind of minimal feeling when a passenger plane took off, but a kind of what if
Failure to rely on anti-gravity clothing can even lead to direct coma or even death.
Under high positive overload, blood will converge to the legs, and the blood supply to the brain will be insufficient.
The blue sky spread out in front of Wang Yu's eyes slowly began to fade, and the periphery of his field of vision began to gradually turn black. These blacks gradually began to converge toward the middle, indicating that his brain was gradually suffering from ischemia.
The roar of the jet engine also faded a lot, and he could only hear his own heavy breathing.
But he did not stop the fuel or change the climb angle, but maintained the climb rate.
Irene reported the altitude, speed and location of the enemy aircraft as loudly as possible, allowing Wang Yu to receive this information.
But even though his field of vision had become much worse, he still kept his eyes firmly on the enemy LCA fighter that was pulling away.
The MiG-21 climbed at high speed from the valley, made an Immelmann maneuver, completed a 180-degree reversal of the flight direction, and then continued to climb upwards, tracking the LCA fighter that still maintained a level flight attitude.
At this time, the overload began to slowly subside, and Wang Yu's vision recovered again. Although he still felt a little overloaded due to the climb, it was no longer a problem compared to before.
What he has to do is approach from the enemy's rear six-point blind spot.
It is impossible for an air pirate to own a plane. No one warned him, and Wang Yu had no intention of turning on the radar, so the air pirate pilot was completely unable to detect the incoming danger.
In more than ten seconds, Wang Yu had risen to an altitude of about 2,500 meters.
At this time, the altitude difference from LCA is 400 meters, and the horizontal distance is 1,500 meters.
This air pirate's fighter plane is directly in front and above the direction of his flight.
The MiG-21 is faster than the LCA, so the close rate of both parties is still positive at this time.
At such a close distance, Wang Yu could clearly see several missiles mounted under the LCA fighter.
He adjusted his breathing and moved the joystick to point the MiG-21's nose in the direction of the LCA.
The speed of the 90mm rocket is fast enough, so the amount of advance he needs to fire is not much.
The enemy simply keeps flying level, with a stable speed and a stable height. It is not difficult for you to hit.
The distance between the two machines shortened rapidly.
The air pirate pilot on the LCA still didn't notice anything.
He seemed to feel that the sound of his engine was much louder, but this did not attract his attention.
