Chapter 57: Ultra-low-altitude overlord

In the mountains and mountains, the "Flying Eagle" all-electric helicopter gunship is like an eagle owl that goes out to forage at night, passing through canyons and passes, and quietly approaching the prey hiding in the valley at a speed of 320 kilometers per hour.

In the cockpit, Kong Zhigao, who was sitting in the back, was engrossed in monitoring several major data on the attitude monitor, and Captain Dong Xuefei, the weapons operator sitting in the front, acted part-time as a navigator. The "Flying Eagle" is controlled by the autopilot, and the navigation information is provided by the "Vulture" drone hovering at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

Unlike other soldiers, Kong Zhigao is not a "war maniac" and does not even have the slightest "interest" in war.

When he was in high school, Kong Zhigao's dream was to become an electronic engineer or a software programmer. At that time, he applied for the naval aviation school, not because he had access to advanced electronic equipment, let alone to become an excellent soldier, but because he did not have to pay tuition fees to study in military schools, and he could get a high-paying and stable job after graduation.

After serving for more than ten years, Kong Zhigao is conscientious and more diligent than anyone else.

For other reasons, he needs more income to allow his parents from the countryside to enjoy their old age, to support his wife who has no job, and to give his son a better education like the children of wealthy families.

Five years ago, Kong Zhigao's fortunes took a turn for the worse.

Kong Zhigao jumped ship to the Army Aviation Corps and voluntarily joined the Army Aviation Test Unit, and in addition to the reasons for secrecy, the main reason was that the allowance was twice as high as that of the Hainan Airlines. In addition, Lu Hang solved his wife's work problems, provided a three-bedroom apartment, and his children also went to the Army Experimental Primary School, which solved his worries.

In the past four years, Kong Zhigao has been very responsible and more diligent.

Because he paid too much attention to his family, he was a little out of place with the other officers and soldiers of the experimental unit, and even his partner Dong Xuefei was a little unaccustomed to him.

It is understandable that Kong Zhigao is not only a soldier, but also a son, husband and father.

A slight vibration brought Kong Zhigao back to his senses.

Under autopilot-ground control. The "Flying Eagle" quickly adjusted its attitude. Overcoming the turbulent influence.

"Old Kong. Five seconds later enter the next canyon. ”

"Understood!" Kong Zhigao quickly switched his driving mode. Switch to manual operation.

Although the "Flying Eagle" has very good resistance to crashes. Even if it falls to the ground at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour. The pilots have an 80 percent chance of surviving. But Kong Zhigao didn't want to joke about helicopter gunships worth hundreds of millions of yuan. I don't want to joke with my life and my partner's life.

Compared to advanced self-driving equipment. Kong Zhigao believes in his own technology.

Beyond the pass, the "Flying Eagle" crept into the canyon against the hillside.

"After two more canyons, we'll be over the plateau."

"Understood, ready to activate the active electromagnetic interference device." Kong Zhigao said as he turned on the power.

The active electromagnetic interference device was jointly developed by the Air Force, the Navy, and the Army Aviation, and because the chief of the test unit was Colonel Xiang Linghui of the Army, and the chief of the General Staff was also a general of the Army, the first test sample was handed over to the Army Aviation Test Unit and installed on the "Flying Eagle."

The principle of operation of the jamming device is simple: the ionized gas created by the powerful electrical energy provided by the composite battery envelops the helicopter and absorbs the electromagnetic waves that irradiate the helicopter, rendering the radar ineffective. It's not easy to make jamming devices, the key is electrical energy. Without the strong supply of electricity for the first time in the 16k novel wàp. text edition, it would not be possible to make enough ionized gas. With current technology, only composite batteries can provide sufficient power for the jamming device. This is also one of the main reasons why the "Flying Eagle" was equipped with jamming devices in the first place, because neither the fighters of the Air Force nor the Naval Aviation Test Unit were equipped with too many composite batteries. Even so, the maximum endurance of the Flying Eagle was reduced from 1,500 km to less than 250 km with the use of jamming devices throughout the journey, so jamming devices could only be used when entering dangerous airspace.

Before jumping out of the last canyon, Kong Zhigao activated the active electromagnetic interference device.

In order to save electricity, the "Flying Eagle" increased the relative flight altitude to 500 meters.

Both pilots had absolute confidence in the active electromagnetic interference device. In previous tests, the active electromagnetic interference device was able to make all the anti-air search radars of the Republic's army, navy, and air force furnished. Because it is all-electric propulsion, the temperature of the superconducting motor is kept below 75 degrees Celsius, so it is difficult for the infrared detection system to detect the "flying eagle".

In the dark night sky, the "flying eagle" is like a bird of prey with wings spread, quickly pounced on the prey in front of it.

"Lao Kong, there are still 10 minutes."

"Understood, the flight altitude was reduced to 20 meters."

In addition to radar and infrared stealth, the "Flying Eagle" does not have a turbine engine and the noise is very low. However, when approaching the target, the noise generated by the rotors will still expose the whereabouts of the "Flying Eagle". Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the flight altitude and shorten the distance of the noise.

"Five minutes to go."

"Check weapons and electronics." Kong Zhigao quickly glanced at the three-sided flat panel display below in front of him, "The power equipment is normal, the power equipment is normal, and the flight control equipment is normal." ”

"The missiles are normal, the radar is normal, the infrared detector is normal." Dong Xuefei quickly inspected the weapon system under his control.

"Prepare to activate the radar!" Kong Zhigao let out a sigh, the real danger had just arrived.

In order for the airborne millimeter-wave radar to search for targets, the active electromagnetic interference device must be turned off. In view of this problem, the scientific research department is developing a time agile switch that allows the active electromagnetic interference device to close at a very fast speed, provide a time window for the radar, and reduce the probability of the "Flying Eagle" being detected by the enemy's radar when using the airborne radar.

"Reach the point of attack in 30 seconds."

"The altitude rises to 150 meters, ready to turn off the jamming system."

The "Flying Eagle" jumped quickly, Kong Zhigao turned off the active electromagnetic interference system, and Dong Xuefei activated the millimeter-wave radar installed on the top of the "Flying Eagle" cantilever wing.

In less than 10 seconds, millimeter-wave radar detected the "Antey 2500" anti-aircraft missile position 15 kilometers away.

There are 8 goals in total. According to the radar wave reflected by the target, the computer analyzed that one of them is a 9M15M2 panoramic scanning radar vehicle, a 9S19M sector scanning radar vehicle, a 9S32M missile guidance radar vehicle, the other is a 9S457M command vehicle, and a missile launch vehicle of four missile batteries deployed around. Dong Xuefei ignored the missile launch vehicle, quickly locked on to the four targets in the center, and set fire control data for the "Red Arrow 12" in the bomb bay.

Fifteen seconds later, the bomb bay doors on both sides of the "Flying Eagle" fuselage were rolled outward.

The four "Red Arrow 12" air-to-surface missiles equipped with high-explosive warheads were like sharp arrows, leaving four dazzling traces of light in the night sky.

Before the rocket's booster engine automatically fell off, the missile's flight speed reached Mach 2.

Until this time, the long-range anti-aircraft missile units of the Indian Air Force, 15 kilometers away, did not detect the danger that was close at hand. The "Antai-2500" air defense system mainly deals with high-altitude and high-speed targets, and also has a powerful anti-tactical ballistic missile capability, which is not ideal for dealing with low-altitude targets, especially helicopters with slow flight speeds. Affected by the rugged terrain, it is more difficult for the 9S15M2 panoramic scanning radar, which is responsible for long-range vigilance and search, to detect the "Flying Eagle" approaching at ultra-low altitude.

Compared to the helicopter's flight speed of 320 kilometers per hour, the Red Arrow 12 flies much faster.

15 km, only 24 seconds.

It's just that Dong Xuefei's movements are faster.

Before the four "Red Arrow 12" hit the target, Dong Xuefei locked on to the two missile launch positions, but he did not rush to input target information for the missile. If the radar vehicle and command vehicle were not destroyed in the first round of attacks, the attack must be supplemented, and the "Flying Eagle" has only six "Red Arrow 12" in total, and it cannot easily "waste" precious missiles.

Four fireballs rose in the night sky ahead, and four key targets disappeared from the radar screen.

Just as Dong Xuefei was loading the target data for the remaining two missiles, Kong Zhigao saw the light that suddenly appeared in front of the right, and he immediately thought of the scene five years ago. Years of hard training allowed Kong to react as quickly as he could, and as he pressed the joystick down to the left, "Flying Eagle" made a left turn and dive at breakneck speed.

Two strings of machine artillery shells dragging tracer light flew two meters to the right of the "Flying Eagle", and if Kong Zhigao's reaction had been a little slower, the "Flying Eagle" would have been volleyed into the air by anti-aircraft artillery shells.

"Anti-aircraft artillery positions!"

"Activate the jamming device and prepare to launch infrared jamming bombs." Kong Zhigao had a hunch that it was not an ordinary anti-aircraft gun.

Without waiting for Dong Xuefei to react, two anti-aircraft missiles rose from the slope on the right.

"It's 'Tunguska.'"

"See, launch an infrared jamming bomb." Kong Zhigao guessed accurately.

Dong Xuefei controlled his nervousness and turned on the power of the jamming bomb.

As the anti-aircraft missile approached, the "Flying Eagle" made a left turn at full speed while throwing dozens of infrared jamming bombs. Because the thermal radiation of the "Flying Eagle" itself is very low, and the temperature of the jamming bomb exceeds 1000 degrees Celsius, the two anti-aircraft missiles caught up with the jamming bomb and did not pose a threat to the "Flying Eagle".

"Contact HQ, the passage has been opened." Kong Zhigao has not forgotten the most important work.

"The message has been sent to headquarters. Turn back and kill the 'Tunguska'. ”

Thinking that the "Tunguska" posed a huge threat to the approaching group of attack aircraft, Kong Zhigao did not hesitate any longer.

After circling at low altitude, the "Flying Eagle" returned to its original course. Kong Zhigao did not turn off the active jamming system, and asked Dong Xuefei to use the infrared detector to find the target.

On the screen of the infrared phaser, the "Tunguska" that has just launched a missile is very conspicuous.

Dong Xuefei did not waste precious time and quickly set the "Red Arrow 12" missile into command guidance mode. While the Indian officers and soldiers on the "Tunguska" were still looking for the "Flying Eagles", two "Red Arrow-12" were fired.

By the time the Indian officers and soldiers saw the missiles being fired, it was already too late.

Although the Tunguska air defense system uses the chassis of the T-72 tank, the all-welded steel turret is only resistant to shrapnel and small-caliber shells. Even if a tank is directly hit by two "Red Arrow 12" equipped with high-explosive warheads, the members inside will be killed and injured.

After taking out the "Tunguska", the "Flying Eagle" did not leave the battlefield.

Kong Zhigao They have another task: to navigate the incoming group of attack aircraft.

"Old Kong, the spear has arrived!"

"See, give them navigational information."

In a short time, four J-10 fighters flew over the head of the "Flying Eagle" and went straight to the bombing target: the air defense command center located in Bertancost.

Flying at the front was the J-10B piloted by Liang Guoxiang and Di Boqing.

Damn it*

On the shelves on October 1, I hope for an October monthly pass, and I sincerely recommend it
