As the sun set, the torrential rain raged for three days. Finally, when we took a break, the rainfall began to exert its power.
A dive attack with a full load is not easy. Under the influence of gravity, it is even more difficult to slow down the fighter plane. Li Zhan even wanted to use his hands to break the flaps in order to provide more resistance. It was difficult to control the speed.
Below 400, the fighter plane is already trembling, like an old man out of breath, and may fall down at any time like a weight.
He didn't dare to take any more risks. He pressed the launch button and dropped the first precision ammunition. The fighter plane suddenly lightened and its nose lifted upwards. Li Zhan quickly pressed down on the lever. The precision ammunition left the carrier aircraft and the rocket assisted it.
The thruster ignites and rushes toward the target.
Under the continuous illumination of the laser pod, the precise ammunition rushed straight towards the target point. Li Zhan controlled the fighter plane and paid close attention to the altitude. In front of his eyes, the ground rushed over quickly, as if it would become blurry in the next second.
The huge pressure on his face challenges every nerve of the pilot. If the psychological quality is not up to par, he will collapse in the next second.
Three seconds before the precise ammunition hit exactly where Li Zhan wanted it to hit, Li Zhan pulled up to break away. Under the influence of inertia, the J-8fr, which was still loaded with a lot of ammunition, was slow to react and moved awkwardly. Three seconds passed in a blink of an eye.
Three seconds later.
"boom!"
The ammunition hit the mountain and exploded.
The J-8fr was shaking violently, almost passing through the sky-high flames, climbing up and deviating from the attack route to the right. Li Zhan could even feel the temperature rising instantly. Of course, it was just a psychological feeling. How could he feel the fighter jet?
What about the outside temperature?
After the fighter plane's posture stabilized, Li Zhan breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't have time to report to the tower, but flew over the attack point at low altitude to observe the effect of the attack. It turned out that the attack was accurate. With one or two more attacks, the weak spot would definitely be damaged.
Exploded and collapsed.
After the first attack, he knew better. If the time to launch the ammunition was advanced by two seconds, the entire attack would be much smoother and would not be as embarrassing as the first time.
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Zhan simply carried out two more attacks, throwing the remaining two precision ammunition at the same explosive point. This technique can be said to be the most courageous in the entire army, even if it is a fixed ground.
Target. In a certain sense, precision munitions are still area-kill munitions, which are different in operational nature from point-accurate missiles.
Precision ammunition is an improvement based on ordinary aerial bombs. Simply put, it is to install a seeker on an unguided aerial bomb. Laser guidance requires continuous illumination of the target by the aircraft's fire control radar or pod. In this process
If the ammunition enters inertia, the carrier aircraft can break away.
Therefore, there are usually various guidance methods for precision ammunition, and some wealthy models even have satellite guidance, but this method is mostly operated at long distances.
Li Zhan was facing a target within ten kilometers. The ammunition with rocket booster may have hit the target before it entered the inertial guidance. There was no need or condition to escape from the irradiation.
A precise attack using a surface-based anti-personnel weapon is considered highly skilled anyway.
The next two attacks went smoothly, and Li Zhan actually felt reluctant to give up after getting the feel of the shot. It was like shooting a gun for the first time. He was a new recruit who was obsessed and wished he could fight twenty-five hours a day.
Danzi's performance. If you were a veteran, you would just hide if you could, because one day you will be beaten until you vomit, smell the smell of gunpowder, and feel nauseous.
Li Zhan confidently flew over to observe, but was surprised to find that the mountain that had been attacked by three 500-kilogram ammunition had only collapsed a little, and it seemed that it could withstand multiple bombardments. In an instant, Li Zhan's heart sank.
If this continues, how many more attacks will it take to open a gap?
This was a heavy blow to Li Zhan. How confident was he? The image of him being so confident before taking off was still vivid in his mind. At this moment, the best ammunition was used up, but he could not shake the target mountain even half an inch?
This is not my style.
"Yao Dong Yao, report the situation." Fang Chenghe couldn't wait for the report for a long time, so he called Li Zhan.
Li Zhan was in a low mood and said in a deep voice, "Tower, the attack effect is not ideal. The main part of the target mountain is still there. I have used up three No. 3 ammunition. Now I plan to use No. 4 ammunition to continue the attack. However, is it my choice?
Is it in the wrong position?”
It involves the safety of lives and property of tens of millions of people in the middle and lower reaches of the river basin. Even someone as confident as Li Zhan would not dare to pat his chest and say that there is absolutely no problem.
"Yaodong Yao, your choice is the most correct so far. Please continue to attack. After completing the attack, return immediately to prepare for the second round of attacks." Fang Chenghe said decisively.
At this time, we must give Li Zhan confidence. The only thing people on the ground can do is encourage him.
Isn't it? At this moment, there are so many people from all over the world. In terms of choosing the attack point, Li Zhan is the most correct because he is the only one at the scene. In the absence of the truth, the answer closest to the truth is
the truth.
Li Zhan was not anxious anymore. The more urgent the situation, the more calm he had to be. In modern air combat, where seconds are the unit of measurement, victory or defeat can be determined by a single thought. Maybe one of your inappropriate actions will put you in a desperate situation.
He flew once more to observe the impact point.
The impregnable appearance makes people grit their teeth in anger!
He decided to change the attack direction and place the attack point at the intersection of the target mountain and the lake. The ordinary aerial bombs he carried were touch fuzes, and as far as he understood, the touch fuzes of this kind of aerial bombs were relatively slow and required a lot of energy.
It can operate only if the impact force is high. In other words, it is possible for the aerial bomb to explode after drilling underwater. The shock wave generated by the explosion will be used to instantly increase the water pressure, causing an instant squeezing of the mountain.
Without bothering to report the plan to the tower, he pulled the fighter plane up and turned to the north, turned around and began to dive, quickly monitoring the data of each instrument and visually judging the distance to the target.
Ordinary aerial bombs have no guidance function and do not need laser irradiation. They rely on inertia. However, it is theoretically possible to accurately drop the aerial bomb at a point. In actual operation, only a handful of the military's flying forces have been able to do it over the years.
number.
Four groups of eight aerial bombs, the smaller the scatter, the better. A total of two tons of ammunition were thrown in a small area. Li Zhan didn't believe that the mountain could hold it without collapsing!
At the bombing point, Li Zhan dropped all four groups of eight aerial bombs. The 250-kilogram aerial bombs rotated and fell to the ground under the action of inertia. In the major bombings during World War II, tens of thousands of bombs were fired at every turn.
Thousands of tons of bombs are dropped in carpet bombing, but the impact is often unsatisfactory. Some unconfirmed statistics show that during World War II, a hundred tons of bombs were needed to kill one person, but in modern warfare only one precision-guided munition is needed.
The contrast is stark.
The use of ordinary aerial bombs puts forward very high requirements for the pilot's grasp of the bomb ejection point. Generally speaking, if ordinary aerial bombs are used to hit a ground target, it will be a large ground target.
Air cannons and rockets attack larger targets. As long as you throw the aerial bomb into it, it will be considered a pass, even if only one aerial bomb hits.
What Li Zhan wants to do now is to make all the aerial bombs hit an area less than 100 square meters. You can imagine how difficult it is, which is at least as high as three or four floors.
Viewed from the air, a mere one hundred square meters is a dot, and it is difficult to identify the dot...
