Naturally, the approximate location of the Russian fighter planes that the "Attack Eagles" wanted to intercept had been marked on the multi-function display.

As an F-15E weapons operator, all you have to do now is to let the AN/APG-70 radar intercept the real "flanker" of the RCS, and the fire control system can launch the missile after the calculation is completed. The "Attack Eagle", which has two crew members and is good at multi-target interception, was only deployed to the Caucasus in the last month, and was originally used as a "firefighter" in the theater to prevent Soviet fighters from relying on their numerical superiority to launch intensive assaults and submerge NATO's tactical air force with the tactics of aircraft and sea of planes all over the mountains. But today, four heavy fighters carrying a total of twenty-four AIM-120B missiles have only one target in sight.

Such a large formation, if it is against ordinary Russian fighters, is naturally completely redundant.

But sitting in the narrow cockpit of the F-15E, all the American pilots knew exactly who was in the "flanker" opposite, which made them all nervous and highly vigilant, and did not dare to take the target lightly.

After basically confirming that the incoming enemy planes were under the control of the "Caucasian Reaper," the Americans' response measures were much more complicated than in the previous interception war, and with the means of active bombing, no one would give priority to entering into a visual air battle with an opponent who could fight dozens of fighters on a single plane. So under the unified configuration of the "counter", the Turks in the southern sky were the first to attack, they approached all the way to a distance of less than 40 kilometers from the Russian fighters, and several F-16s launched the "Sparrow" F almost at the same time!

With the press of the launch button, the gray-white missiles broke away from the fuselage and disappeared into the distance of sight with a long tail of smoke. But what are the opponents they are fighting doing?

The approach of the Turkish Air Force. If it is for the Americans in charge of the command to evaluate. presumably will be accused of "clumsiness" and "cowardice"; This kind of uninterrupted shooting of a large number of missiles looks spectacular and shocking, but the actual effect is not ideal, and the semi-active missiles that cannot form echelon follow-up can only fly to the same target in a swarm, which is completely a waste of ammunition.

Having said that, if you use semi-active bombs to launch them one by one in a hurry, it is too dangerous to face the master - although the Turks were not warned by the command and did not know who the target in the sky ahead was, they had to mobilize nearly twenty fighters to intercept them together. That's certainly not something to mess with!

In the clear sky, clusters of AIM-7F with dense ballistics have been on the road, but their target, the Su-27S painted with a big red five-pointed star, is turning sideways all the way, and Long Yun, who turned on the missile jammer, does not mean to fly south all the time, and now the distance between himself and the enemy aircraft is relatively close, listening to the movements of the RWR, have they already launched missiles?

In the face of the intensive accumulation of a large number of missiles, this kind of thing is not the first time for him.

But even so, the threat of the "Slammer" missiles of the Americans is taken into account. Long Yun didn't hold it too big either, but kept flying sideways on the side of the battle line. From time to time, they also make small side turns and use airborne radar to scan the airspace in front of them. It can be said that such an engagement situation now depends entirely on the shelter of missile jammers: the semi-active "Sparrow" naturally does not need to worry, and the "Slammer" with active radar guidance will not be too late to take evasive action after the RWR system receives an alarm from the W-band irradiation.

In this way, he kept flying sideways, and confronted the oncoming enemy plane for a moment, Long Yun suddenly noticed that a number of black shadows appeared in the sky at seven o'clock, which quickly became larger; At this time, RWR did not issue a W-band warning, letting him know that the incoming missiles were a swarm of "sparrows".

Sure enough, with the deceptive operation of the jammer, one after another AIM-7Fs flew violently, but they twisted and flew like drunks, passing past the Red Seventeen, and the first wave of over-the-horizon attacks of the Turks completely failed!

After the over-the-horizon attack, it should be a visual air battle, right?

Finding that today's combat situation was clearly a bit complicated, Long Yun glanced at the light on the dashboard, and he still had four R-73Ms on hand, which was still too little for a large-scale group fight. With the consciousness of "fighting if you can beat it, and running away if you can't beat it," he piloted the fighter plane to turn around and fly eastward, while staring intently at the background of the clear blue sky in the south, but no matter how he observed, he still couldn't see any approaching enemy planes in the slight backlight.

Feeling that this situation was a bit unexpected, he turned 90 degrees sideways and used the radar to search the airspace in front of him, and the target distance measured by the RWS mode was more than 45 kilometers, at this time, the W-band alarm of the RWR began to sound rapidly, and a large wave of active bombs was approaching!

These Americans, what are they going to do?

There is no time to think about it, Long Yun paid attention to the movements around him, while quickly judging the attack situation of the missile, and drove the fighter plane to turn his back to the direction of the incoming missile, at this time the missile with a thin trail in the sky has entered the descent section of the parabolic trajectory, from an altitude of more than 6,000 meters, these short and thick AIM-120B projections are inconsistent, one after another, and the cunning Americans use echelon salvos.

Without a trace of panic and hesitation, he quickly observed the incoming momentum of the missile, Long Yun pushed the throttle valve forward, opened the afterburner, and pushed the rod into the dive to speed up like a flying goose; To deal with these "Slammers" who have been running in the air for tens of kilometers, there is no need to panic and dodge at this time, and continue to run a marathon with them first!

With a missile with a maximum speed close to Mach 4, and a fighter flying at subsonic speed, it would have been easy for the former to catch up with the latter.

But the current situation is that the missiles that come from a long distance can only rely on the kinetic energy accumulated before, but the fighters have a fully open engine to ensure thrust; The Sukhoi fighter plane, painted with a large red five-pointed star, climbed sharply and circled immediately after a large overload of the pressure bar, and the "Slammers", who could not keep up with the staring chase of the homing head, could not keep up with the staring chase of the homing head after a futile chase in the sky.

As far as a missile that relies on its homing head to lock on to a target fails to meet and the target enters the rear hemisphere of the missile, it completely loses the conditions for attack; just behind the missiles that are like javelins crashing into the sea, Long Yun, who has been circling out of the circle, does not have time to take a second look, and he finds the figure of the enemy plane in the sky head-on, and the Americans finally can't hold back and kill them.

Oh - it doesn't seem to be! (To be continued......)
