Chapter 178: Get rid of the missile
There are many ways to avoid being locked, the most common of which is to use the principle of radar to roll sideways, but this trick has failed.
Then, in the face of incoming missiles, there are two ways, one is to release interference, and the other is to make a large overload maneuver.
The opponent launches medium-range bombs, and medium-range bombs are guided by the opponent's radar, as long as the platinum strip interference is released at the right time, the platinum strip will form a metal wall in the air, so that a white curtain appears on the opponent's radar, thus losing the target.
Although the overload of the missile is greater, it can reach more than 20 g or more than 30 g, and the fighter will pull out the limit of 9 g of overload at most, but the difference between the two is that the fighter is very powerful, and the solid engine of the air-to-air missile can only burn for so many tens of seconds, in the second half of the air-to-air missile, it is all by the habitual unpowered flight, so as long as you do a few large overload maneuvers with the missile, you can completely consume the kinetic energy of the opponent's missile, the opponent's missile, It will follow its own movements and maneuver non-stop, so that the missile head is always facing the enemy aircraft. In this way, the missile itself will lose speed in repeated tosses. Or a sharp maneuver makes the opponent's missile unable to keep up with its own movements, for example, a few seconds before the arrival of the missile, it suddenly pulls vertically, and the control torque of the rudder surface of the missile has decreased due to the decrease in speed, so that the missile will not have time to complete the same pulling action, and will rush to the rear of the fighter. If the missile wants to turn back to a 180-degree bend, it is impossible to turn without a turning radius of several thousand meters, and at that time, our own fighters have long been gone.
Although the principle is very simple, it depends on the character to really do it.
In air combat, those who can get rid of the opponent's missiles can be regarded as gods.
Ziaz believes that he is completely fine, and he has already had several experiences of getting rid of missiles.
Ziaz pulled up relatively early, and the missiles that flew towards him were already climbing with him, and the platinum strip interference released just now did not play a big role.
The radar officer in the rear cabin was nervously counting: "Ten seconds, nine seconds..."
Ziaz looked down at the altimeter, which had reached an altitude of nearly 10,000 meters, and then he slammed the pole and began to dive.
The radar officer in the rear compartment was still counting: "Five seconds, four seconds, three seconds..." He didn't look out of the cabin, the missile must have been seen with the naked eye.
Ziaz was still diving, all the way down, the altimeter in front of him, the pointer spinning in circles, four thousand meters, three thousand meters, two thousand meters, the huge tomcat, the swept wings had been received to the rear, and was swooping down on the ground like an eagle swooping down.
"Two seconds, one second..."The radar officer in the rear cabin said that if they couldn't get rid of the missile, then, the next second, they would turn into a fireball, and even if they got rid of the missile, they would kiss the earth.
At this moment, Ziaz used all the strength of his body to pull the lever back, the airbrake was raised, the swept wing was flattened, the leading edge of the maneuvering flap was erected, and the huge tomcat began to change from a swooping attitude.
At this time, the height from the ground is less than a few tens of meters.
Long live Allah! The radar crew in the rear cabin, because of the huge overload caused the temporary blackout, he didn't need to look out the window, waiting for the last moment to come.
Suddenly, there was an explosion below, and the tomcat was upside down, but it had already spread its wings and successfully changed out.
In the last two seconds, the Matra 530 missile was still flying towards the Tomcat, because the Tomcat had been diving, so its course was also downward, and it did not realize that it was a conspiracy.
And at the last moment, Ziaz changed to dive and leveled, although the Matra was able to perform a greater overload maneuver, however, its electronics judged that it would take time, and, due to the influence of the ground echo, the semi-active radar-guided Matra 530 at the last moment, lost its target, it hit the ground and exploded.
Semi-active radar guidance refers to the fact that although the front end of the missile also has a radar, it only receives signals and does not transmit signals, but relies on the rear carrier aircraft radar to transmit radar beams, and it can only receive passively, and the processing of ground clutter is not as powerful as the carrier aircraft, so it leads to the failure of the attack. This is why medium-range missiles have a limit on the height at which they can be used.
The medium-range missile guided by the active radar, the radar in the front of the missile, transmits the signal by itself and receives the signal by itself, so it can be done after launching, but it is limited to the volume of the seeker, and the power of the radar is relatively small, and it can only be guided for about 20 kilometers at most, so when the first half of the flight is still needed, the carrier aircraft signal is still needed.
Wingman Mahmoud also managed to get rid of the missiles fired by the other side, he was very lucky, after releasing the platinum strip interference, the missiles chasing after him had been unlocked, in fact, due to the improper maintenance of this advanced air-to-air missile in the Iraqi Air Force, a key system in the circuit failed.
Mahmoud drove the plane to a high altitude, and then looked at the ground, his two Tomcats had already been hit, one was shot down, the other was damaged, and the long plane pulled up the nose of the plane at the moment of hitting the ground and got rid of the missile.
Mahmoud didn't have time to mourn for his brother who died in battle, he knew that he had to deal with the enemy in front of him before he could avenge his brother!
Due to the high speed of both sides, in the process of getting rid of each other's missiles, the fighters of both sides, have already entered the line of sight.
Because they were trained in the US military mode, the pilots all developed a strong style and immediately prepared for close-range air combat in the face of the two Iraqi planes flying over.
In the over-the-horizon battle just now, because of carelessness, I didn't take advantage, but in close combat, there has never been a fighter that can take advantage of the Tomcat, even the F-15 of the US Air Force!
Ziaz also pulled up the plane and prepared for a close-quarters fight.
The guidance was completed, two hit the enemy plane, and two were unlocked, such a record has already made Hamad excited, because their most advanced Mirage F1 squadron has finally taken down the Persian Tomcat!
However, the battle has only just begun.
Hamad knew that he could not all get into a fight with these tomcats, because the other side was coming with a large group of aircraft, and intercepting the bombing squadrons that posed a greater threat to Abadan was the more urgent need.
So, he turned the two Phantom F1s to deal with the Persian bombing squadrons that were already approaching the skies over Abadan, and he took his wingman Amy and pounced on the Persian Tomcats.
Even if both of your planes are shot down by the other side, you must give your comrades time to create an opportunity to shoot down those bombing squadrons that pose a major threat to Abadan.
