Chapter 380: Midnight Attack

The SR-71 can't dodge the MiG-31, this is not Long Yun's own guess.

In the history of the real world, when the SR-71 invaded the airspace of the Soviet Union, it also encountered the radar lock of the PVO air defense fighter many times (the lock basically means that the missile launch conditions were met), but limited to the international situation and confrontation rules at the time, the Soviet pilots never really pressed the missile launch button, and there was no chance to compete with the "magic high or the road high".

But in this strange parallel world, the fighters of the Territorial Defense Force really fired, and launched a large number of missiles without a single hit, what is the reason for this?

Feeling the strangeness of this matter, Long Yun had a faint premonition, he felt that the KGB's involvement in this matter and the coordination of PVO to transfer him to Central Asia probably had something to do with the strangeness in this matter.

"So, all in all, I want to go to the skies to see the situation first."

"You mean...... Attack in person? ”

Unlike Simonov before, the regiment commander Levsenko and others naturally received orders from above, and they also knew that the number one trump card in front of them was here to assist in this matter; But to say that the MiG-31 was lifted into the air to participate in interception operations, they also did not quite believe that the major general, who was famous all over the world for flying the Su-27, was talking seriously.

Or did he not plan to fly the MiG-31, but just wanted to sit in the rear seat of the weapon and go to the sky to observe?

Faced with the doubts of the regiment commander and others, Long Yun answered very simply:

"Yes, I want to fly the fighter plane into the sky to have a look."

That being said. Paying attention to the expressions of several people in front of him, Long Yun used his consciousness to spy on the minds of the head of the group and the others. While wondering in my heart whether this is feasible. Of course, at this time he was not worried about whether he would be able to fly the MiG-31. He had flown many times in previous computer games and aviation simulators, and had a good understanding of this strong and powerful heavy fighter; He is more worried about his identity, Viktor Rezenov has not piloted the MiG-31 in this parallel world, and now he suddenly proposes to take it off, will it arouse suspicion?

Hey, doubt it, doubt it!

Long Yun thought playfully that his out-of-the-ordinary things in the parallel world were not one or two, and the KGB didn't and didn't treat him well? During the war, a qiē from Jane, for a major general who twice won the title of "Hero of the Soviet Union" trump card. The dazzling aura itself can cover up a lot of things, and as a traverser, he doesn't want to think too much about it now.

"Observe the situation, try to attack, and then make a plan of action for the next step. How is it? ”

"Since you say so,...... This should work. ”

In the face of the major general of the aviation corps, who seemed to be full of confidence, the regiment commander and the political commissar and others looked at each other twice, and then they all nodded in approval; If you want to talk about the major general's request, since it is a strong reinforcement sent from above and the number one trump card of the Red Air Force, there should be no problem in doing what he says.

- But. Will he really be able to ride those big MiGs?

……

Regarding the doubts of the regiment commander and perhaps the whole regiment, Long Yun quickly answered with practical actions.

Unlike the rhythm of the front-line battles and frequent attacks, waiting for combat opportunities in the deserted bases around was a boring torture for Long Yun.

At the time of VVS's involvement in the war. The combat mode of the front-line aviation regiment is generally very flexible and changeable, and it is quite able to give full play to people's initiative, which is like a fish in water for Long Yun; And in the 290 regiment, which is subordinate to the 5th Air Defense Army of the PVO, all the pilots have to do is to be on combat readiness duty. Maintain communication with the Soviet Union's vast network of automated interceptor guidance, and then follow the command of the guidance system - lift-off. Accelerate the climb, launch a missile salvo. Then turn around and head back home.

Looks pretty monotonous, doesn't it?

However, when the battle came, it was earlier than expected.

Late at night on the third day of Long Yun's stationing at the Alalsk base, the automatic interception and guidance system sent a combat order, and the "Don River" long-range warning radar deployed in northern Kazakhstan discovered a high-altitude and high-speed target approaching the national border from the direction of Central Asia, and the target's flight mode and echo characteristics were judged to be SR-71!

After receiving the order to attack, the base immediately entered combat readiness under the cover of night, in addition to the two fighters that had already been on standby at the end of the runway, two more MiG-31s were slowly pulled out of the dimly lit cement hangar, ready to take over the first two combat readiness positions at any time. Long Yun, who was wearing a bloated anti-load suit and carrying a huge flight helmet, and Simonov, who had formed a temporary partner before, took a battery car to the two MiG-31s with roaring engines, and climbed into the tandem cockpit at the front of the huge fighter; Now, as long as the guidance station sends an order for the next move, it will immediately take off urgently to intercept it.

Although the MiG-31 has a larger body than the Su-27, the cockpit is very small; Long Yun, who was huddled inside in an anti-load suit, had a brief conversation with Simonov in the back seat amid the roar. Although they had never really cooperated before and were still strangers to each other, Long Yun was still very confident in completing the mission, because unlike the complicated air superiority operation, in the interception operation, he flew the plane to the predetermined coordinate point on time according to the instructions of the ground guidance station.

In other words, he only needs to focus on flying during the battle, which is not difficult.

As he spoke, the command from the guidance platform had been sent; The cruising speed of the SR-71 was indeed very fast, and in just 10 minutes, from the time it received the air situation report of the enemy plane's entry to the command center's order to take off and intercept it, the "Blackbird" had already flown over the two Central Asian republics, and at this time it was only about 600 kilometers away from the Alar base in a straight line.

Seeing that the time had come to intercept in the air, as the command tower sent a signal, Long Yun was already ready to take off; Calling the wingman to follow his actions, he pushes the throttle valve forward, turns on the afterburner and takes off urgently.

With Long Yun's skillful control, the speed of the two D-30F6 engines suddenly increased, and a blue-white dazzling tail flame came out from the tail nozzle of the huge fighter, and the powerful engine with an afterburner thrust of 15.3 tons let out a thunderous roar, pushing the MiG-31, which had a take-off weight of more than 40 tons, to accelerate forward on the runway!

Accelerating, the lever raised its head, the heavy steel behemoth roared into the sky, the thick landing gear with staggered wheels retracted forward, and the MiG-31, whose flaps were retracted, maintained a high-spirited attitude all the way to the south, and began to climb explosively with full force, attacking the old enemy in the distant sky.

MiG and Blackbird, the fateful duel between two extreme warplanes, is about to be staged again in the high night sky of Central Asia! (To be continued......)
