Chapter 820: Leaving the War and Returning Home

The USAF and US_NAVY, who have always been accustomed to being transparent on the battlefield and calmly engaging in combat under the dispatch of the command center, have truly fallen into the vast sea of the Red Air Force and cannot break free.

Blind_Combat One after another, F-16 "Fighting Falcons" and F/A-18C/D "Hornets" hastily turned on their radars and discovered enemy planes in the northern sky, but the pilots were afraid to engage in battle, but frequently carried out lateral transpositions and flew back and forth over the theater of operations. Despite this, the few fighters that did not take any evasive action and were just blindly preparing for over-the-horizon firing were hit squarely by the R-27P/EP missiles that broke through the air.

With the might of a salvo of anti-radiation missiles, a large number of Soviet fighters that were killed at high speed quickly established their superiority on the battlefield, forcing the chaotic NATO fighters to enter the fight.

For a moment, the missiles in the clear sky covered by gray clouds flew sideways, and the white smoke of the metal giant bird rolled and moved in the air, using all the resources to shoot missiles with arrows and a string of aerial artillery shells to fight each other; Completely caught in the chaos of the battle, the cooperation between the fighters has been impossible to talk about, the fierce battles under the sky, are completely a competition of the skills and courage of the pilots on both sides, the slightest carelessness between the response, may never have the next chance to return to the blue sky.

In the melee, the backup plane, which lost its unified command and replaced the position because of the fall of the "watchtower", was long overdue, and the pilots of the USAF could only struggle to support themselves in the face of adversity. One after another, the fighters of the United States painted with the insignia of the white star on a blue background were shot and tumbled in the clear sky, dragging smoke and falling. From time to time, fires and even explosions broke out. The Turkish sky was almost blood-red with explosions and fires. In an instant, it turned into a death graveyard for NATO's tactical air force!

In the midst of such a vicious battle, the Americans who fought bravely did not back down, but showed great resilience and willpower; The USAF and his Navy colleagues who dominate the skies are not in vain, and even in the face of more Ivan fighters, there is not much fear on the faces of the pilots.

As a fighter pilot, the fighter pilot's character is to never admit defeat, and this is the same for either side in the war.

In the face of overwhelming strong enemies in the north, NATO's tactical air force led by United States fighters showed extraordinary tactical literacy and fighting spirit, without air support and unified command. actually barely withstood the first wave of VVS fighter attacks, and was not directly cleared and kicked out by the MiGs that attacked like a tide!

However...... The second echelon of the Red Air Force's front-line air force, which had fought a time lag, quickly pressed on, first with a slashing R-27P/EP fire, and then with a wide range of radar and repeated raids, and the US fighters, which were in a hurry for fuel and ammunition, were finally unable to parry, and the fighter interception line that stretched over the theater suddenly became full of holes, and then collapsed even more completely.

Just when there were fierce battles in the sky and fierce battles almost everywhere, the two MiG-29N, which had exhausted the only missile and now had nothing but aerial artillery, flew low all the way under the guidance of Long Yun.

The two-plane formation bypassed the airspace where fierce battles were raging, under the cover of continuous dark clouds. The two warplanes soon left Turkish airspace without leaving a trace; Piloting a stealth MiG plane that is not even equipped with a radar, it has a relatively comprehensive understanding and grasp of the distribution of friend and foe in the sky. Long Yun, who was under the integrated cockpit canopy, was concentrated and full of thoughts, obviously he had already used the superpower of consciousness snooping at this time.

On the battlefield where the teeth of the enemy are intertwined, Long Yun has no way to glimpse the human consciousness activities thousands of meters away, or even tens of thousands of meters away, let alone use consciousness penetration to exert influence; But by flexibly using his superpowers, Long Yun now simply used this sense of mind as a rough "passive radar". And now, he and the wingman's MiG-29N are not equipped with IFF, and the appearance is very different from the MiG-29 of the general front-line troops, even if it is a friendly fighter, it is likely to be mistaken as a US military aircraft and be hit by mistake, so it is a wise choice to hide when you see the plane.

Hey, speaking of which, this kind of "low detectability" fighter in the meter pattern has a pretty good visual masking of the paint, but it is a bit like the paint style of the US military aircraft, and it is really a little difficult to explain if it encounters a Warsaw Pact fighter!

Imagine the battle situation after the fall of the "watchtower", the Turkish sky must be particularly dangerous, Long Yun is very cautious with the wingman all the way low, turning left and right, the continuous consumption of fuel storage of the fighter makes him a little worried; Fortunately, there was no danger along the way, the fighters of the Red Air Force and NATO were basically dead above the clouds, and no one would deliberately run down to search for low altitude at the risk of eating anti-aircraft missiles, during which they only briefly encountered a team of VVS MiG-27s, but the sharp-eyed Long Yun still found a vacancy and ran away with his wingman.

Long Yun, who flew back to the Bugas Air Base in a landline, got a report on the battle situation that night, and only then did he know what a ferocious blow the "watchtower" fell during the day and dealt a heavy blow to NATO.

A heavy blow that came by surprise was indeed a solid blow to NATO's soft underbelly.

And this blow is not only reflected in the loss of combat aircraft; The fact that the integrated operational command system, which had always been regarded as indestructible and unbreakable, was destroyed by Warsaw Pact fighters of unknown origin had destroyed the central node, and this kind of thing naturally made all NATO commanders deeply frightened -- but isn't it, a "counter-radiation missile" has already made people sleep, and now there is a "silent assassin" with a mysterious whereabouts, and some people have already thought of the only reasonable explanation, but this explanation has only made the soldiers of the United States feel a chill down their spines.

Infiltrating all the way from the front of the theater of operations and launching an attack when the E-3A "watchtower" is undetected, isn't this something that only radar stealth fighters can do?

But how is this possible, how can the Russians have such advanced weapons!

Thinking of the latest cutting-edge fighter of the United States, the fourth-generation radar stealth fighter that has been confirmed to be the F-22 "Raptor" has not yet officially entered service, and the generals of the Central Command are filled with anger: Now the matter is clear, the Russians must have mastered some kind of radar stealth weapon to do this almost impossible thing -- but in this East-West confrontation, shouldn't the technological superiority always be on the side of the free world?

Knowing nothing about the actual situation of the MiG-29N fighters, and not knowing that the anti-air combat power of this "stealth fighter" was not much stronger than that of the famous "air combat scrap" F-117, the commanders were only very surprised and at the same time very depressed.

If you want to talk about stealth fighters, there are actually a lot of stealth combat planes in their hands, but whether it is the F-117 "Nighthawk" or the B-2 "Phantom", these weapons are actually some bombers and cannot do the work of fighters. But what the US military can't do, the Russians are now taking the lead, these hateful atheists, can they come up with some "demon method", or maybe they have made a major breakthrough in radar stealth!

The cruel fact of the attack on the "watchtower" shocked all those in the know from top to bottom of NATO, but the war is still going on, and the Americans are now racking their brains to think about the situation and plan countermeasures while urgently deploying backup aircraft and maintaining the air monitoring capability on the front line.

But as the saying goes, "disaster doesn't go alone", before they could come up with a complete solution, the second bad luck followed.

Just after the assassination and fall of the "watchtower" in the sky of western Turkey, in the early morning of the next morning, another E-3B early warning aircraft flying in the same sky, that is, the temporary replacement of its unfortunate predecessor, was once again hit by a missile flying in the sky!

During the cruise, it was bombarded at close range by the missile warhead, the explosion damaged the front part of the E-3B "watchtower", one engine briefly caught fire and burned, although the AWACS aircraft struggling to fly did not repeat the mistakes of yesterday and fell and disappeared into the gray sea of clouds, but it was obviously unable to continue its mission, half of the sky in Asia Minor once again lost its air platform and command node, and Ankara's Central Command also fell into complete madness and despair - just after yesterday's heavy blow, The command has ordered the AWACS aircraft to be closely protected, and for this reason has also increased the number of F-15 fighters cruising near the "watchtower", but why was it attacked again?

This problem, except for Long Yun, naturally no one can know.

On the first day of the covert operation, Long Yun was not only excited, but also recalled the danger of the mission, especially after standing up and doing such a deal, the Americans would definitely surround and protect the AWACS planes layer by layer, and it would become more difficult to continue the assassination.

But it is precisely because of this that the so-called "soldiers are treacherous" that he is determined to immediately plan another similar assassination operation.

If nothing else, just look at the brutal war situation in Turkey and the Middle East to know that the rolling iron flow of the Warsaw Pact will soon pour into the hinterland of the Middle East, at this time, as the number one trump card of the Red Air Force, Viktor Rezenov's super combat effectiveness will naturally have to be fully utilized, and when it comes to influencing the overall situation of the war, it is more important to completely destroy the opponent's will to fight than to be entangled in how many NATO fighters are destroyed in the air.
