Great Power Fighting Falcon

Chapter 653 An opponent who has never been ignored

Gaoxin-P approached cautiously, fearing to wake up the enemy in his dream. Gaoxin-P just wanted to mess with the enemy gently, so don't worry...

The Gaoxin-P, weighing more than 70 tons, was approaching the main island of the Bawang Islands at a speed of more than 370 kilometers per hour at a position only eight meters above the sea. Frequent waves seemed to be rising under the wings, and the aircraft Its wingspan reaches thirty-eight meters.

In other words, if the tilt angle of the aircraft is slightly off, the wingtips will rub against waves more than three meters high or even plunge into the sea water. The pilot must ensure that the left and right tilt angle of the aircraft does not exceed a very small angle.

Li Zhan focused most of his attention on flying, leaving other aspects to Guo Beimu. In order to achieve absolute concealment, Gaoxin-P is in a radio silent state, that is, it only receives but does not transmit.

Ordnance engineer Yang Shuwen and avionics engineer Wang Fei are busier than people think. High-tech-P uses a large number of new airborne weapons and avionics technologies, and is basically still in the actual combat test stage. It needs to be closely monitored and ready to deal with unexpected problems at any time.

Especially for Yang Shuwen, he must ensure that the internal and external weapon systems are normal. This is the top priority of the operation. The avionics system and the weapon system are closely related, so Wang Fei communicates with Yang Shuwen in low voices from time to time to ensure the normal operation of the entire large system.

The distance was closing rapidly, and the Tiger detachment was under no less pressure than Li Zhan.

In order to ensure the success rate of penetration, Gaoxin-P chose to infiltrate at ultra-low altitude, which meant that they had to parachute at ultra-low altitude and paraglider. Night sea skydiving at low altitude is the most dangerous and difficult of all skydiving disciplines.

Tiger Squad rarely used this method of infiltration. The principle of special operations is simple and direct, and those lengthy and extremely gorgeous combat plans usually exist in tactics class assignments.

Moreover, the weather conditions were not good at this time, which was another big challenge for the Tiger team who wanted to use paragliders.

However, the Tiger Squadron is a battle-hardened unit. Operations behind enemy lines are commonplace for them. They are responsible for the targets that the local armed police and special police cannot solve. Therefore, despite the difficulty of the task, they are still full of confidence and have a very good mentality. Relax.

At this time, in the crew compartment, the thirteen members of the Tiger Squadron were either closing their eyes and concentrating, or steadily sorting weapons and ammunition, or checking equipment, or taking small bites of high-energy chocolate. There was no tension at all before the battle.

Yuan Boning folded his arms and closed his eyes to rest, but his mind was repeatedly familiar with the battlefield environment, enemy deployment and combat plans. He was wearing headphones, and the instructions from the cockpit could go directly to here, and there were multiple indicator lights on the bulkhead beside him. When the red light came on, it meant they were ready to skydive, and when the green light lit up, they started parachuting.

The Gaoxin-P's ultra-low-altitude sea-skimming penetration was very successful. Under the favorable circumstances, the poor weather virtually made it more difficult for the enemy's sea warning radar. Moreover, Gaoxin-P also has a trump card - using virtual signals to simulate enemy targets. Although it can only last for five minutes, it is enough for the Tiger Squadron.

Of course, it’s best to try not to use trump cards.

The early warning aircraft two hundred kilometers away continuously sends location information to Gaoxin-P. Li Zhan can know the distance to the main island of Bawang Islands and the real-time position of his aircraft in real time. Implementing infinite silence means that the radar cannot be used, so the pilot knows neither the target location nor his own specific position. Of course, the approximate location is known in mind. It is easy to get approximate data by flying according to the planned route on the aeronautical chart and using time and speed calculations, but this is not accurate enough.

The guidance of early warning aircraft is very important. People regard early warning aircraft as a multiplier of combat effectiveness, and this is why.

20:25.

Li Zhan finally gave the order to the tiger team: "Get ready in five minutes!"

Gaoxin-P has approached the position of fifteen kilometers, and can already see the lights on the island, if there are lights on the island.

The Flying Shark Team sped over and rushed over. They wanted to provide cover for Gaoxin-P when it airdropped personnel. At this time, it doesn't matter whether the combat purpose will be exposed, everything is to ensure the smooth airdrop.

The four F-15Js thought that the Flying Shark Squadron had begun to attack them, and hurriedly fought against them. An air battle broke out not far from Gaoxin-P's head. The two sides fired medium-range air-to-air missiles at each other, and then avoided each other, which seemed to be a civilized fight.

The Flying Shark Squadron is definitely the brightest star in the night sky. They show off their superb flying skills without any scruples. While flying up and down, the fire control radar shines everywhere, hitting the medium-range bombs with flying colors. However, their opponents' movements were somewhat dogmatic, with more than enough standards but not enough flexibility, making it quite difficult to deal with them.

Li Zhan pulled the lever and climbed to an altitude of 300 meters above sea level. After level flight, he pressed the skydiving ready indicator light and opened the tail side hatch. Yuan Boning jumped down without any hesitation, and the rest of the team members followed closely. Standing by the side door was Li Yunxiao, who guest-starred as the parachute releaseer.

Gaoxin-P was exposed to enemy radar, but the air battle was in full swing at this time, and it took time to identify the target. Although it is only a few minutes, it is enough for Gaoxin-P. Li Zhan didn't even wait for the side hatch to close before turning around at a steep angle and accelerating away.

When the island's air defense system reacted and entered, Gaoxin-P had once again dropped to the sea-skimming altitude, and the radar tracking signal was once again interrupted in the increasingly severe weather.

Accelerating to bring the distance to fifty kilometers, Li Zhan climbed back up and turned the nose of the plane, breaking radio silence at the same time.

Each member of the Tiger Squad carries a GPS locator, and Hi-Tech-P can monitor their specific location in real time. Li Zhan has a portable tablet in his hand and can also check the status of the Tiger Squadron. This facilitates various information exchanges with the Tiger Squad.

Thirteen small red dots representing the tiger team are slowly moving toward the main island in a flash. If the flashing red dot turns into a solid yellow dot, it means that the team members are in danger, and an SOS mark will appear next to it. If it goes out, it means the sacrifice of the team members.

Yuan Boning and the others' infiltration was much smoother than expected, and they suddenly discovered that the ground defense on the island was very weak. When they landed on a relatively flat open land at night, they discovered that there was an air defense position in the woods less than 200 meters away, but there was no patrol to ensure its safety.

Important air defense positions will even place warning lines one or two kilometers away.

It can be judged that the West Pacific pirates believe that no one can threaten the security of one of the nests in the Overlord Islands. A relatively complete air defense network is enough. In fact, satellite reconnaissance has proven this, but satellite reconnaissance cannot detect enemies hidden in caves or underground fortifications.

Logically speaking, the Overlord Islands are an important nest for pirates in the Southwest Pacific, and there should be no shortage of defensive strength.

Maybe on Island A?

Yuan Boning had no way of judging for the time being, so he quickly cleared the landing site, marked the landing site, and then quickly disappeared into the darkness with his team members. Their first target was the radar station, then the aircraft shelter, and the other targets last.

Destroying the island's radar station is the most critical. Without radar, the island's air defense network would be without eyes, and its combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced. This is also a prerequisite for Gaoxin-P to attack in the air - Gaoxin-P cannot brave the fierce anti-aircraft firepower to attack in the air.

The runway of the main island airport has been destroyed. It is impossible for enemy fighters to play a role until the runway is repaired. Now only the ground air defense positions are left to affect Gaoxin-P.

The Tiger team bypassed the nearest air defense position and followed the clues to find the radar station. What they are looking for is a mobile radar station hidden in the woods. This kind of radar station that changes its location at any time and disguises its antenna as a tree poses the greatest threat. It can even be turned on and off at irregular intervals to avoid anti-radiation missile attacks.

As for the fixed radar station deployed on the hilltop, Li Zhan began to clean up at this time.

After inputting the target indication parameters, Li Zhan climbed to the launch altitude and launched a 500-kg LS-6 rocket-assisted precision guided bomb. Because the launch height is not as high as that of the J-15, the maximum range of the same LS-6 launched by Gaoxin-P is only 80 kilometers, which is obviously enough.

The radar station at the highest point of the Bawang main island is an early warning radar. It is the radar station with the furthest view on the Bawang Islands, but it does not have a fire control function. After destroying this radar station, our fighter planes can reduce the combat distance to within 30 kilometers from the Overlord Islands, basically suppressing the opponent's formation and firing.

The high-tech-P attack early warning radar station and the Tiger Squadron detect and search the mobile fire control radar, using a two-pronged approach to blind the enemy's eyes on the island.

Li Zhan raised the nose of the plane slightly, kept the plane climbing at an elevation angle of fifteen degrees, and then launched a 500-kilogram LS-6 rocket-assisted precision-guided bomb. The bomb first falls, and then the booster rocket ignites to push the bomb to accelerate flight. After reaching a certain speed, the rocket booster falls off, the retractable wings on the missile body unfold, and the bomb enters the gliding stage and continues to approach the target.

After entering the attack phase, the bomb enters the dive phase, the main wings fall off, and the bomb runs toward the target at a dive angle of more than 70 degrees with the stability of the tail fin.

Such a large early warning radar station is an obvious target. The warhead of the LS-6 penetrated the radome but exploded after hitting the radar base. In the huge explosion, most of the early warning radar station was destroyed, and the night was dark. , in the billowing smoke, the eye that could see the farthest reaches of the Bawang Islands was blinded.

At this time, the Flying Shark Team began to show results.

The four F-15Js immediately panicked after learning that their runway was destroyed. Although there is an airport on Island A, Island A airport cannot guarantee the combat of F-15J fighters. Alternating at Island A airport is equivalent to losing four aircraft. The combat effectiveness of the F-15J. Moreover, they believe that since the other side has attacked the airport on the main island, it will naturally also attack the airport on Island A. If there is no continuous attack, they may have to wait for their four F-15Js to land.

At least that's what the headquarters deployed on Island A thought. At this time, Tojo, who was working in the underground fortifications under the tower on Island A, deeply felt the gap in strength between them. He knew very well that the other party had only dispatched part of a fleet, but they had already beaten him to the point where he was almost unable to resist.

You know, the pirate armed force based on the Overlord Islands is more than half of the strength of the West Pacific pirates.

The F-15J pilots whose mentality was affected by the bad news soon learned a lesson from the socialist air-to-air missile. Han Hongjun took the risk to break into the enemy formation and put an F-15J into the PL-9's no-escape zone. He only used a combat bomb to hit the opponent into the air and exploded. Then he dived and escaped under the crazy siege of the other enemy planes. In the process, it caused the enemy aircraft to move and created an opportunity for Yang Fan, who was covering his attack.

Yang Fan seized the opportunity and shot down the second F-15J.

At this time, the remaining two F-15Js saw that the situation was not good and fled frantically. Dai Wenming and Gu Mingmu, who had been prepared for a long time, turned on afterburners to catch up and used PL-12 medium-range air-to-air missiles. In order to ensure the hit rate, they all launched two PL-12 medium-range air-to-air missiles at the targets they were pursuing.

This highly anticipated second-generation beyond-visual-range (medium-range) air-to-air missile has once again proven its combat capabilities. The PL-12, which adopts active radar guidance, has a maximum range of 70 kilometers and a maximum overload of 38 G. The maximum speed reaches Mach 4, and the performance is quite advanced.

The two F-15Js chased by PL-12 were very miserable. They were all hit. The second PL-12 almost hit the wreckage. One of the pilots did not even have a chance to parachute. Another pilot successfully parachuted, but the debris generated by the explosion of the second PL-12 penetrated the parachute. The pilot quickly fell to the sea, and then hit the sea heavily and was seriously injured. He suffered for more than an hour. He died after suffering so much pain, it can be said to be the worst.

All four F-15Js were shot down, and the main island airport lost the ability to dispatch fighter aircraft. There were four F-2 fighter jets at the A island airport. Tojo dispatched these four F-2 fighter jets after some consideration. He committed a taboo among military strategists and lost a good situation that could have formed a military advantage, turning it into a fueling tactic.

But no one expected that those F-2s that imitated F-16 fighter jets would actually bring a lot of trouble to the Flying Shark Squadron.

The F-2, also known as the "Heisei Zero War", has a unit price of US$180 million. It is the most expensive fighter jet in the world, US$30 million more expensive than the F-22A. The unit price of its imitation, the F-16, is only US$30 to 40 million. Even if it is sold to a wealthy person, it will not exceed US$50 million.

The strength of this fighter cannot be underestimated. It is the first fighter in the world to adopt an airborne phased array radar, and it is a more advanced active radar. Five years after it entered service, the F-22A officially entered service. The early models had average air combat capabilities. Later, after being equipped with more advanced avionics systems and modified radars, the air combat capabilities were greatly improved.

The most important thing is that this fighter inherits the excellent maneuverability of the F-16.

All the pilots of the Flying Shark Squadron have never ignored the F-2. To be precise, the commanders and fighters of the People's Naval Aviation have never despised the F-2 fighter jet. But most people believe that no matter how advanced the F-2 fighter jet is, it will not be more advanced than the F-15J.

This is the result of a lack of confrontation.

A fact that many people don’t know is that the pilots who fly F-2 fighter jets are the best pilots in the West Pacific Corsair Air Force and have more experience than the F-15J pilots.
