The first time he saw the Su-27 composite pylon in the parallel world, Long Yun naturally felt quite novel.

Take a closer look at the Su-27S fighter in front of him - of course, he has always felt that the dismantling of such a white twenty can no longer be called the S type, that is, the single-seat standard type of the Air Force, probably a new sub-model of the Su-27P42 is more reliable, and the double "H" composite pylons are installed on the left and right air intakes, as well as the middle and outer hardpoints of the wings, that is, one hardpoint can carry two R-73M missiles.

In this way, with the belly centerline hardpoint and the wingtip missile launch slide that have not changed much, the number of missiles carried by the entire fighter has reached an astonishing sixteen!

Sixteen R-73Ms, even if calculated on the basis of two missiles against one target, the sustained firepower is amazing.

"Haha! Igor, no wonder you say, 'The weight is about the same as the original'; not counting the weight of six composite pylons, the extra six R-73Ms alone cost 700 kilograms! ”

"Isn't it; Of course, this missile has a longer range than the Americans' Sidewinder, otherwise it would not be cost-effective at all in terms of weight. ”

Hearing Long Yun's words, Kirilenko nodded approvingly and gave a self-deprecating answer.

Looking back at the history of missile weapon research and development in the decades after World War II, the weight of Soviet air-to-air missiles is generally higher than that of Western missiles of the same specification, on the one hand, to meet different tactical needs and research and development indicators, on the other hand, it has to be said that it is also dragged down by the level of Soviet electronic technology and solid rocket technology.

And if you want to say "drag", this situation is far from just missiles: let's talk about the white No. 20 Su-27S in front of you, and it is not because the electronics are constantly overweight and the size of the engine space is also beyond expectations. will be born with a long figure of 21.935 meters. and 16.8 tonnes of usable empty weight. The overall aerodynamic design, which could have been called excellent, could not be used, and only a body of unoutstanding maneuverability was exchanged?

Hey, if that's not the case, why did this ace major general let him Kirilenko study weight loss again and again and dismantle the fighter like this - a fighter without radar is not a long-term solution after all, and it seems that the time has come for the number one killer of the Red Air Force to receive the latest Su-27M.

Thinking of this, I unconsciously felt a little emotional. The Engineer smiled at Victor and reached out to shake his large, powerful hand:

"So, Victor: that's all we can do, and that's up to you.

Lift off and kill the boys, boys, kick those Yankees in the ass for us and let them know something! ”

……

Following the formation of the 390th Regiment all the way south, Long Yun at this moment remembered Kirilenko's farewell words again.

Looking at the sky from the cockpit of the White No. 20, there was not a single trace of an enemy plane in the gray blue sky with a touch of white clouds drifting away.

Although the enemy in the air is still nowhere to be seen, the tension of the battle has become more and more intense.

Facing the US fighter plane at a distance of 100 kilometers. The N29 radar of the MiG-019M has a limited detection range and cannot be detected for the time being; And Long Yun at this time. Because the landline has dismantled all the electromagnetic detection equipment, and now it can be said that he knows nothing about the air situation in the theater, and he can theoretically only fly according to the guidance information sent by the ground guidance station, of course, these guidance has not worked now, he only needs to follow the 390 regiment of his comrades over the Caucasus Mountains, and then break away from the formation and act alone.

Quietly entering the war zone from a low altitude, the landline was full of R-73M combat missiles, obviously Long Yun did not have the location of the R-27P/EP in today's battle plan, and he had considered this for a long time.

The use of anti-radiation missiles to attack enemy planes requires not superb technology but efficient coordination and command, and ordinary pilots can do it as long as they act in strict accordance with orders. As for himself, he plans to act as a complete spoiler and danger factor in such a BVR chaos that is destined to be unprecedentedly fierce - that is, to use low altitude to approach enemy aircraft, suddenly rush up to fight, and look for opportunities to annihilate the enemy in the chaos.

All in all, it didn't matter how many enemy planes he shot down in this mission, trying to cause trouble and disrupt the opponent's rhythm of battle was a difficult task that he was most capable of and only he could accomplish.

In the midst of the chaos, such a battle mode is naturally very dangerous.

For the average fighter pilot, unless the aircraft gun is used to hit non-mobile targets at close range, whether it is launching over-the-horizon missiles or using combat missiles, the assistance of avionics equipment is always necessary: even in a tense fight, the pilot needs the radar on the fighter to intercept the target, complete the range, and calculate the killing probability, and at the same time guide the missile homing head to lock on to the target, and finally launch the missile.

There is nothing wrong with this engagement process itself, but in the "anti-radiation operation" situation that began today, anti-radiation missiles are flying everywhere in the sky, and fighters that rush into the enemy line with their radars on are in an extremely dangerous situation, and only fighters like the White 20 that have even removed their radars can ensure that they will not be accidentally injured by the R-27P/EP.

Piloting the fighter plane to follow his comrades all the way, Long Yun, who was at the tail of the dense formation, could feel the consciousness activities of the pilots around him: before the plane rushed to the opponent and fought to the death, I am afraid that few people could keep their composure, and now it seems that these young men are the same.

However, compared with some of the apprehensions and fears that rookies will always have when they go into battle, the 390 front-line fighter regiment, the battle-hardened Red Air Force pilots, no longer have those fragile feelings, in this protracted world war, although they are just ordinary members of the millions of battle sequences, but in the face of the ferocious Western invading army, none of these lovely soldiers want to retreat.

Feeling the fighting courage and the desire to kill the enemy scattered in the sky, Long Yun, who also flew to meet the enemy, naturally felt the same way; In a casual reverie, he couldn't help but think of something, it was a lecture on campus many years ago, in the face of students' questions, a veteran who had participated in the counterattack against Vietnam replied:

"Scared? Yes, it's scary to think about.

But classmates, when you actually pick up your gun and charge with your comrades, you won't know what to be afraid of. ”

The meaning of the veteran's words is that I don't know if I want to be afraid......

Is this sentence that made people feel a little hairy at the time, is it right or not?

Many years ago, Long Yun always thought that he would not have the opportunity to verify the truth of this sentence: even if he studied in a military academy and put on a military uniform, he would not have the opportunity to set foot on the battlefield in peacetime. Now, however, sitting in the cockpit of a Su-27S fighter jet as Viktor Rezenov and flying forward with the Red Air Force pilots who are determined to kill the enemy, this should have been a completely illusory experience, but it felt extremely real to him, and he finally understood the meaning of that sentence at once.

yes, what does it mean to be afraid?

For those who don't know why they are fighting, war is indeed the most terrible thing in the world.

At the moment of the vicious war, there was a burst of thinking off the line, I don't know what kind of emotion it was affected by, at this moment, Long Yun suddenly realized that he was just a participant in this war; However, even so, Viktor Rezenov, the Red Air Force pilot whose consciousness has long since dissipated, continues to do what he should have done, is this his Long Yun's consciousness doing, or is it some kind of doom in the dark?

Slowly rubbing the joystick through the flight gloves, sitting in the cockpit of the Su-27 fighter that was too familiar to be familiar anymore, Long Yun, who should have been concentrating on the enemy, was in a little trance, and he was almost a little unsure of what he was doing, or whether Viktor Rezenov's consciousness had completely dissipated.

At this moment, driving the plane into the southern sky and fighting to the death with the swarming NATO fighters, if Victor's consciousness still exists, will he do exactly the same thing?

In the two worlds with different trajectories, two life trajectories that are independent of each other and occasionally intersect, the consciousness of one of them has dissipated, and he is the only actor left on the stage of fate......

For a long time, this has been a subconscious judgment of Long Yun's own experience; However, today, in the clear sky of the killing cloth, he was accustomed to attacking alone, but he flew with his comrades-in-arms MiG-29M, and was infected by the unprecedented strong fighting spirit, and in a trance he had a little new uncertainty, whether the so-called "disappearing consciousness" was completely correct.

"Disappearing consciousness", huh?

But what is consciousness, is it something that cannot be divided, and there are only two states of "being" and "not being"?

In the boundless wandering meditation, realizing that he was being distracted, but very strangely did not want to stop there, Long Yun suddenly broke free from his thoughts after hearing the prompt sound of the ground guidance system.

Yes, now is not the time to think about this, but to go all out to meet the enemy!

Putting aside the doubts that appeared in his mind for the time being, Long Yun confirmed the coordinates of the local plane on the navigation panel, although his white No. 20 did not have a radar, but looking at the action orders sent by the ground command center, he could probably guess the current situation: after climbing the Caucasus Mountains, he has been flying at a low altitude, about eighty-five kilometers away from the line of fire, and the RWR alarm is sounding slightly, obviously the 390 regimental fleet he followed has been discovered by NATO fighters.

The low-flying MiG-29 or Su-27 is intermittently irradiated by the radar of enemy aircraft at a distance of more than 80 kilometers, and there are not many types of NATO fighters with this capability, since it is unlikely that the US Navy's "super cat" will appear in the Caucasus airspace, then according to Long Yun's guess, this should still be the old enemy F-15 "Eagle".
