Chapter 1459: Canyon Pursuit

The U.S. soldiers on the Tarawa Heights all cheered when they saw the two fighters at low altitude being killed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Although they couldn't see which fighter was killed, in their opinion, it was only possible that the fighter of the Iran-Syria Federation was shot down, and at this time, they should cheer for their pilot.

The commander of the US battalion immediately ordered to send two squads of soldiers to run towards the wreckage of the plane that was falling not far away.

At this moment, Colonel Beckham and the pilot of another Rafale fighter jet, cold sweat appeared all over their bodies instantly.

The scene just now is really too dangerous, the other party is obviously about to make contact with the missile, and it is really incredible that he can still launch the missile.

When they came back to their senses, they were also shocked to find that the two fighters of the Iraq-Syria Federation had not been shot down by their own missiles.

Four more missiles, which is what has never happened since the Mika missile was used.

In all previous exercises, the lethality of the Mika missile has always been not inferior to that of the most advanced air-to-air missile of the US military; once it is locked on, the probability of being able to escape has always remained below 35 percent, and the probability of hitting the first shot is also higher than 75 percent.

And now, the two fighters of the Iraq-Syria Federation on the opposite side have not only successfully dodged the eight Mika missiles, but also have the ability to counterattack and kill the two Rafale by surprise, which makes the always arrogant French flying ace also break out in a cold sweat.

At this moment, Beckham did not dare to underestimate the opponent on the opposite side, the most important thing is that the control and attack power shown by the opponent just now are enough to show that the opponent's fighter has always been sound in performance and complete in fuselage structure, otherwise it would be impossible to make such a super difficult action of stalling and circling.

It can dodge two missile attacks with technology, the first time it can also fly at a stall speed at supersonic speed, and the second time it can launch an attack at the moment when it falls at a stall to avoid the missile.

Such an act, in the eyes of Beckham, is absolutely a madman, and such a terrible opponent cannot be found in the history of air combat.

And in front of his eyes, there were actually two such madmen.

After all, although such a tactical theory is feasible, it has never appeared in actual combat, and only Russian pilots in the world fly Russian fighters to make such air tactical maneuvers at air shows.

But if it is used in actual combat, the success rate can be said to be minimal, after all, every moment of air combat is a moment of life and death, and it is impossible to be like a simulation, all the data are standard.

Under normal circumstances, the success rate of stall circling and maneuvering to evade missiles in actual combat is probably not even 20 percent probable.

Although Beckham did not see the opponent's fighter evasive maneuvers, the change in altitude and speed of the opponent, as well as the two successful evasion missiles, were enough to determine the opponent's evasive tactical maneuvers.

It is also because of this that Beckham also directly compared the two fighter pilots of the Iraqi-Syrian Federation opposite to madmen, and normal people would never be able to do such a thing.

However, this did not make Colonel Beckham give up, the other party is indeed a master of air combat, and he is very bold, but he still has the confidence to kill the other party, because in his belief, he is the strongest.

In the dark night, although Beckham could not see the opponent's fighter plane, the clear signal on the radar showed that the opponent was flying towards the west at a very fast speed.

The opponent did not attack, which made Beckham a little disappointed, because he was ready to deal with the opponent's second attack, and the opponent's escape behavior did not make Beckham relax.

The enemy is a master, and the towing knife meter is also a common tactic in air combat, and the chasing side is often likely to be easily replaced by the opponent's high overload tactical action in an instant.

Of course, this is based on the considerable gap in the strength of the other side, Beckham and another Rafale fighter did not hesitate to approach, one-on-one, both wanted to close the distance, at close range, lock on to the fighter of the Iraq-Syria Federation, and launch missiles to kill.

Beckham is a master, and being able to fly a Rafale-M fighter jet is also a master, and both men have great self-confidence.

What's more, the Rafale fighter is also a fighter with a canard wing layout, and in terms of maneuverability, it is also among the best among all fighters in the world.

Rafale accelerated to catch up, and soon caught up with the two Black Hawk fighters in front.

After two battles, the two sides really saw the figure of the other fighter's fighter in their eyes at this moment, and the silhouette of the fighter and the signal light in the dark night appeared for the first time in the eyes of the fighter pilots of both sides.

At the moment when the Rafale fighters tried to lock on to each other with their combat missiles, the two Black Hawk fighters suddenly flew in a downward and high angle of flight attitude, and the altitude was already close to the ground in a few breaths.

The two Rafale fighters also chased after them, but when the two Rafale fighters were condescending and ready to launch missiles, the two Black Hawk fighters suddenly disappeared from the fighters' active radar.

This startled Beckham, but they soon found two Black Hawk fighters, and just now, two Black Hawk fighters had burrowed into the canyon below, and were traveling through the gap in the canyon.

With the help of the complex topography of the canyon depression, the radar signal of the fighter is hidden in the complex radar wave signal on the surface, so the missile that relies on the radar cannot be locked at all.

Unless the Rafale fighter also enters the canyon and locks on to the fighter in front from the rear, it will not be able to attack from the top down.

And if you chase above the canyon, under the slow speed of the opponent, the Rafale fighter will overtake the past at once, and then the Rafale fighter will be bitten from behind by the Black Hawk fighter and be occupied by the active attack position.

Seeing the two Black Hawk fighters burrowing into the canyon, the two Rafale did not hesitate and followed closely.

The air flow in the canyon in the dark night is complicated, and the pilot can only rely on night vision to fly, which is full of danger.

Under normal circumstances, Rafale fighters should not be pursued, but now, two French Rafale were shot down, and the other two could not return like this.

Canyon flight is a necessary skill for fighter pilots of all countries, and who makes the canyon the most able terrain to hide the fighter radar signal.

However, at the moment when the two Rafale fighters entered the canyon, the two Black Hawk fighters in front immediately attacked.
