Talking to Kirilenko about the interference pods, Long Yun was indeed grateful for the results they brought.

Let's just say that in this air chaos, I rushed directly into the enemy formation as if I had entered a no-man's land, and killed at least three enemy planes at once (I don't know if the smoking "Super Cat" can survive back to the base, otherwise maybe four?). Thanks to the miraculous effect of the interference pod; Long Yun knew that most people like Kirilenko who were addicted to scientific research were like this, but he didn't care, but patted his slightly thin shoulder quite affectionately: "Ah, Igor, this thing really works!" The 'Sparrow' missile now walks around when it sees a fighter, just like a mouse sees a cat! ”

"Yes! That's great,---but I don't have time to talk to you right now, so I'll have to get to the test equipment. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Kirilenko let go of the hand holding Long Yun's arm and turned around and walked, making Long Yun a little stunned again, wasn't he holding on to himself to speak just now? He just subconsciously raised his hand to greet him, but when he saw Kirilenko's steps, he seemed to remember something and turned around:

"Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, if you have time in the evening, please come to the hangar, we need to carefully record your battle."

"Okay...... Got it! ”

Seeing Kirilenko disappear around the corner of the barracks, Long Yun dragged his somewhat tired body slowly to the restaurant to have dinner, most of the day's aerial fighting did make him feel a little tired, and he should take a good rest and go to the hangar to work overtime at night.

After taking a nap in the dormitory, Long Yun was woken up by a knock on the door near evening, informing him that there was a meeting in the group.

After dinner, at a tactical seminar held in the conference room of the regiment headquarters, Long Yun and other pilots heard a report on the temporary battle situation, and the 237th Regiment lost two Su-27S and two wounded in the Black Sea direction in this large-scale sortie, which shows the fierceness of the battle process.

As for the number of their shootdowns, it is not entirely certain for the time being, but in general there is a clear advantage in the exchange ratio with Viktor Rezenov's deposits.

It was at the meeting that Long Yun learned that he not only used the R-73 to kill three F-15Cs in the daytime battle, but also injured another F-15 in the initial over-the-horizon attack; Coupled with the "Super Cat" that was flickered and crippled by him later, the Red Navy has also sent confirmation information. According to the principle of calculating the damage record of "two for one" implemented by the Soviet Air Force during the Great War, now his number of downed aircraft has been officially refreshed to thirty-seven; The figure of 37 is almost equivalent to the number of fighters on a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier of the Americans, and this terrible record naturally attracts everyone's admiration, and Long Yun is still a little unaccustomed to this.

However, the embarrassment was embarrassing, and Long Yun still put forward the threat that the regiment must pay attention to: the F-14 that appeared over the Black Sea, and the AIM-54 missiles they carried.

"In today's operation, we should have encountered the F-14D of the US Navy in the later stage, and we also suffered the loss of the long-range missiles they launched. For AIM-54, in fact, there are some introductions on the materials distributed by the regiment......"

Standing in front of everyone and talking eloquently, Long Yun made a detailed analysis of the AIM-54, the world's first practical active radar-guided missile, based on the brief materials he had seen before and the background knowledge in the real world, especially pointing out the characteristics of the radar guidance signal of the "Immortal Bird", as well as the countermeasure strategy for the missile's flight characteristics.

The AIM-54 is a missile that is even more terrifying than most of the missiles in service in parallel worlds, not only because of its active radar seeker, but also because of its amazing long range and high flight speed.

However, just as everything has advantages and disadvantages, the high-power radiation guided by the early active radar and the infrared signal of the high-speed flight guide can help the fighter to detect the incoming missile early on the premise of being prepared, and then use the large overload maneuver to carry out the countermeasure, at this time, the AIM-54's maximum overload of only 17G is not so terrifying in front of the flexible fighter.

"- Victor, then AIM-54 isn't terrible according to you?"

"Now the Yankees' planes, only the F-14 can hang this kind of missile, so we don't have to be afraid of these guys, right?"

After listening to Long Yun's explanation, the boys in the regiment recovered from the fierce battle during the day, and they certainly trusted the number one ace of the Red Air Force in front of them: if Victor said that the combination of AIM-54 and F-14 is not to be feared, but has its own weaknesses, then it must be so.

Hearing the questions of his comrades-in-arms, Long Yun thought for a moment, and he felt that he should be cautious when speaking at this time. The confrontation with the "Super Cat" twin planes during the day is still vivid, and he can't let the pilots in front of him create the illusion of underestimating the enemy:

"This is exactly the case with missiles, and many of us have also got rid of it today, and it is not terrible. But," he paused, emphasizing that "the U.S. Navy has a high level of readiness and is quite skilled in technology, but it is not an easy adversary to deal with." Let's talk about today's battle, when I was a formation striker and I was caught up with a group of F-14 twin-planes after driving away the Yankees' F-15s......"

While describing in detail the combat experience during the day, Long Yun recalled the confrontation with the F-14D twin planes, and he was once again sure that it should be the elite of the US Navy pilots, or that the pilots of the two two-seat heavy fighters must be experts who have fought a lot of battles.

Such guys also appeared in the skies of the Caucasus, and will their battles be even more difficult next?

There are also eleven Su-27S that have just been replenished in the regiment, two more were reimbursed and two were injured in a fire fight today, and Kamenev's forced landing does not know whether it was smooth or not, the brutal war is really a bottomless pit that devours personnel and equipment.

Of course, such a heavy sacrifice was also worth it: in today's noon battle, the Americans were beaten down by at least seven or eight heavy fighters of their 237 fighter aviation regiment, and it is estimated that the dead and wounded will not be able to breathe for a while, and the originally tense skies over the Black Sea may be temporarily idle for two days.

After the tactical seminar, although Long Yun already wanted to go to bed a little, he remembered that he had to go to the hangar to see the progress of Kirilenko's work; But physical exhaustion still prevailed, and he dialed the internal telephone in the hangar at the regimental headquarters, and told Igor, a stunned circuit maniac, that he was already very sleepy and tired, and his head was a mess that he could not communicate, and then paced back to the dormitory to sleep.

There's no way, there will still be battles in the future, how can you stand it if you always rotate like this?

Besides, in the future, with jamming pods that kill "Sparrow" missiles, it is impossible to say that this kind of adventure of taking the lead and charging ahead and attracting all the enemy's firepower will become a common occurrence in his battles; So it's better to get some sleep and don't get too nervous.

……

Early the next morning, Long Yun, who had already returned to reality, woke up and found that he was still sleeping in the barracks dormitory, and the sunlight outside the window had already shone into the room quite brightly, sprinkling it on his body and feeling warm.

Why are you still in the parallel world, are you subconsciously thinking about the jammer?

With such an idea, and without receiving any air situation alarm, Long Yun had a leisurely breakfast, and then went to the maintenance hangar where the Red Seventeen was parked.

I don't know if it's because of the continuous sorties and the high combat intensity, as soon as Long Yun entered the hangar, he saw that the pilots were busy overhauling the red No. 17 Su-27S in the center of the field, and the two engines were dragged out of the installation position to prepare for overhaul, and the other two AL-31F engines that looked very neat and tidy had been pushed to the predetermined position to be replaced.

"Good morning, Victor! Today, the fighter has to change its engine and undergo routine maintenance, and it will not be able to take off for the time being. ”

Seeing Long Yun approaching, the pilots who were already familiar with him, including the newly arrived KGB agents who had entered and entered, greeted him cordially; Because Long Yun's technology is top-notch and he speaks very easily, the people in the group now call him by his name affectionately.

"Ah, that's okay! Yesterday the Americans were beaten, and today I don't think they have the courage to provoke again. How's it going, is the engine in good condition? ”

Knowing a little about the fighter engine, Long Yun knew that the first overhaul of the AL-31 was very important, and how long the engine could last depends on the results of the first overhaul test.

Of course, during the war when fighters were frequently dispatched, the Soviet Air Force returned the engines that needed to be overhauled directly to the factory when conditions permitted, and the fighters were installed with new engines to maintain continuous sortie capability, especially for him, the number one ace, seeing that the two brand-new AL-31F next to him were already in place, Long Yun knew that he didn't have to worry about running out of fighters.

AL-31F, a large bypass ratio turbofan engine, has large thrust and stable work, and all indicators are not bad, but the high-altitude and high-speed performance is not ideal, and to be honest, it is not the best choice for the Su-27S, a fighter and volley.

After chatting with the pilots for a while, and seeing Kirilenko coming to the hangar, Long Yun took the initiative to find the circuit maniac, and the two exchanged glances knowingly, and then walked through the partition door to the space opened up by the electronic equipment and used as a test room.

Walking cautiously in the chaotic stacking of electronic equipment in the temporary real room, Long Yun saw that the missile jamming pod that had made great achievements yesterday was quietly erected on the large bench of the real room at this time, the pod mask had been disassembled, and the KGB electronic technician who was busy next to him was overhauling the equipment inside.

Glimpsing the real yàn platform next to the pod bench, at this time there were already a lot of large and small discrete components, Long Yun guessed that they were all replaced from the interference pod, and this idea was confirmed by Kirilenko:

"Well, that's it. Fortunately, we designed the circuit backup, otherwise this thing will fail every time it goes to the sky, which is simply a certainty! ”
