At the airport west of Ossa, under the huge Tu-22m bomber, ground crews are using special trailers to mount the newly produced air-launched anti-ship missiles on this extremely fast bomber.
The kh-22 missile is huge in size, and the mounting operation is also very time-consuming. This anti-ship missile developed and produced by the former Soviet Union is, to put it bluntly, almost an aircraft equipped with a guidance device.
An anti-ship missile weighing nearly 6 tons can be equipped with a warhead weighing more than one ton, which is guaranteed to destroy any kind of warship. It can fly at more than 4 times the speed of sound, so intercepting this missile is almost impossible.
Especially for demons, their magical defense barrier is almost powerless against attacks at this speed.
"Be careful! Be careful! Check every connection point! Missiles and bombers are very precise equipment! You must be very careful!" A ground crew officer repeatedly emphasized the safe operation regulations.
He has to check every link to keep the entire aircraft and missile operating normally. As weapons become more sophisticated, this kind of inspection work becomes more and more frequent.
Today's missiles are expensive and extremely complex. A few mistakes can result in hundreds of thousands of gold coins being wasted. In order to avoid such losses, strict operating rules and regulations are an indispensable reference.
All the Tu-22m bombers deployed here are about to take off, and the anti-ship missiles they carry will ensure the destruction of at least 10 Demon warships, continuing to reduce the Demon fleet's numerical advantage.
"Inform the pilots that they can take off at any time!" After touching the bolts that fixed the missile with his hand and confirming the strength of the fixation, the ground crew commander gave a thumbs up to his subordinates, indicating that their work was complete.
Any problems occur.
Soon, these bombers will take off carrying anti-ship missiles, arrive at the battlefield, and easily kill those demon warships.
Before these bombers took off, the more advanced F-15 fighter jets had already formed two huge formations with the F-16 fighter jets and took off for combat.
Olanke sat in the not spacious but well-designed cockpit of the F-15 fighter jet, monitoring various battlefield information on the screen.
There is an identification friend or foe signal on the radar screen to distinguish the positions of the enemy and his own people. He can easily distinguish the friendly forces fighting in the melee with the enemy.
Advanced electronic equipment allowed him to firmly grasp the situation above the battlefield, and his dazzling achievements were spray-painted next to his cockpit. And today, it was obvious that he had the opportunity to add some new achievements.
"I can't believe it, this cabin gives me an extremely unreal feeling." Orank lamented to his wingman via the radio.
As an ace pilot, he first flew P-51 Mustang fighter jets. Later, he was specially transferred back from the front line and began to simulate flying F-15 fighter jets until he received the F-15 fighter jet a few months ago.
If it weren't for the Magic Ball of Knowledge, he might still not be able to fully control this complex and sophisticated advanced fighter jet.
There are hundreds of operating buttons on this aircraft, as well as two extremely complex engines. The most exaggerated thing is that this is not the most powerful part of the F-15 fighter jet.
The most powerful thing is that this fighter has a complete combat data link. This data link is the key to the F-15 fighter truly surpassing the MiG-21 fighter.
With this command system, the F-15 fighter jet can control battlefield information, complete the most reasonable tactical dispatch arrangements, and easily attack the enemy's weaknesses where they are most vulnerable.
"The MiG squadron is almost out of ammunition! The rest is left to us and the F-16 squadron!" Olank's wingman saw the information on the screen and answered calmly.
Olanke maintained his flying altitude, then checked the status of the data link, looked at the wingman flying beside him, and confirmed: "In a few minutes, we will enter the combat airspace! Are you ready?
."
"Report to the captain! The missile status self-check is completed, there is nothing abnormal! I am ready!" Wingman pilot Jack checked the weapon system and reported.
Although both of them like to joke around when they are relaxed, they have never been careless about this kind of formal battle preparations.
If you are careless at this time, you are irresponsible for your own life. If you are careless at this time, you are making a joke with your life.
"Turn on the insurance, we will enter the war zone in one minute! Call the ground tower! Call the ground tower! I am Predator 1! I am Predator 1! Apply for the transfer of dispatch command!" Olanke changed the communication channel,
Open your mouth to apply.
The command from the ground tower quickly came through the earphones: "Approve the application! After entering the war zone, the command of the F-15 hunting squadron will be transferred to the air command center!"
"Hunter Squadron! Hunter Squadron! I am Compound Eye No. 2! I am Compound Eye No. 2! Take over your command! Password 458911, over!" After confirmation from the ground tower, another voice spoke in Oranke's
There was a sound in the headphones.
An e-3 watchtower early warning aircraft modified from a Boeing 707 that has been hovering at the edge of the war zone is the data terminal of the Ireland Air Force battlefield command system. It can be said to be a radar flying thousands of meters high in the sky.
It can be said to be a mobile computer packed with hardware.
The development of the two e-3 early warning aircraft only took a short time. After all, all the technologies used were the radar technology that Alan Hill had already reserved. Alan Hill has never slowed down its development, and computer technology is even more advanced.
One of the development directions that Chris attaches most importance to is that the Boeing 707 passenger aircraft has long been in service. With the accumulation of these three technologies, the birth of the e-3 Watchtower early warning aircraft is a natural progression.
It is precisely because of the mobilization of the E-3 early warning aircraft that the MiG-21 fighter force has been able to fight in an orderly manner until now. It is also precisely because of the dispatch and command of this early warning aircraft that the performance of the Air Force of Ireland Hill in this air battle was
, stronger than the previous battle at the ferry.
The MiG-21 has already improved so much without supporting data link support. Fighters such as the F-15 and F-16, which have supporting software, have improved even more with the support of the early warning aircraft terminal.
"I am the Predator Squadron, I am the Predator Squadron, the password has been confirmed! Predator 1, follow the instructions!" Olanke looked down at the transparent pocket on the front of his thigh, which was torn before taking off.
He opened a piece of paper with the dispatch password written on it and responded with confirmation.
"I have transmitted the coordinates to you! You can use automatic allocation to decide your respective attack targets." On the early warning aircraft, sitting in front of a computer, a dispatcher wearing headphones stared at the various data on the screen.
coordinate parameters said.
These are the most reasonable and effective attack methods that have been carefully calculated by the servers carried on the aircraft.
Compared with letting pilots make their own decisions, this calculation of rationally allocating attack targets is more scientific and direct.
"I've received it!" Looking at the battlefield situation on the screen in his plane, Olanke felt that this new combat mode was really convenient.
He turned on the radar locking mode, and his radar could no longer lock on the targets that other F-15s had locked. Compared with the previous manual classification of attack targets, the time and energy saved were so much.
"My radar has locked onto the target! Missiles can be launched!" the wingman's voice came over. Olanke hadn't even seen any enemies at this time.
The aim-120 air-to-air missile mounted on the F-15 fighter jet is a new type of air-to-air missile with small size and high power. It will also be the main force of the Air Force's standard over-the-horizon combat for a long time in the future.
missile.
This missile has undergone many optimizations and has great advantages over the previous Sparrow missile and the unproduced Phoenix missile.
Because of the reduced weight and size, the F-15 fighter jet can carry as many as 12 of these missiles, which also greatly improves the F-15 fighter's sustained combat capability. Compared with the MiG-21 fighter jet, it is simply qualitative.
leap.
As a typical representative of the third-generation aircraft, the air superiority fighter F-15 has better combat performance than the second-generation aircraft MiG-21. Therefore, when it fights against more demonic air forces, its performance is also better.
of strength.
At this moment, it was not only the F-15 fighter jets driven by Olank and his team that entered the war zone, but also a similar number of F-16 fighter jets.
These F-16 fighter jets can carry Sidewinder combat missiles and aim-120 missiles. They can carry up to six aim-120 missiles, and their combat effectiveness can barely reach half of that of the F-15 fighter jets.
Ireland's air force combat tactics are similar to those of the US Air Force. Their combat plan also relies on powerful F-15 fighter jets to disrupt the opponent's defense, and then relies on F-16 follow-up attacks to expand the results.
Dozens of third-generation fighter jets dispatched can solve many more problems than dozens of second-generation fighter MiG-21s. Therefore, when these fighter jets appeared on the edge of the battlefield, the MiG fighter jets began to withdraw.
Off to the battlefield.
Some demonic dragons tried to fly to Pilipi Island to wreak havoc, but they were quickly dispersed by anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft missiles. After losing several demonic dragons and dozens of demonic bats, the demonic troops finally realized that Pilipi Island
Lippi Island's air defense was stronger than they imagined.
The ZSU-25-4 self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery's anti-air attack capability is quite powerful, and coupled with the powerful complement of anti-aircraft missiles, it provides stable air defense cover for the Airan Hill troops on the island.
Just after the Demon Air Force withdrew from Piripi Island and completed its first trial attack, the fighter force led by Oranke appeared on the flank of the returning Demon Air Force.
The roar of jet fighter engines echoed in the sky again, and on the sea, the naval gun duel between real men continued...
