Chapter 161 Forced Landing Backfire
"Damn Pakistanis! What are they going to do!" In the cabin of Tu-22m2, the pilot Igor, who was in his forties, was almost roaring.
There were two missiles under the wings of the tomcat and an immortal bird under the belly. When the plane flew over, the pilot had an ominous premonition.
When the other party fired the front of his flight with a cannon, Igor was going crazy. When the young Pakistani pilot gestured to him, he knew that the other party was going to force the landing him.
Igor could no longer bear it. This was simply an insult. Even if the other party shot down himself with a missile, it would be more dignified than this forced landing!
Now, only military aircraft have been deported, and no forced landings have occurred at all. At most, fighter jets have carried out emergency landings on civilian passenger aircraft.
Igor pushed the operating rod sharply and hit the opponent with the nose of the machine. The opponent then rolled keenly and left his sight.
The four-seat bomber had limited vision, and the pilot had only front and side views. In his sight, he had lost the trace of the fighter.
Finally left! Igor breathed a sigh of relief, flew over twenty kilometers to enter Afghan airspace. As long as he got there, it would be safe.
"Bang, bang." At this moment, suddenly, a barrage appeared in front of me again, and the shells came down from directly above!
After Rick left the fighter plane, he rose vertically to a high altitude and then dived down.
Damn it! Igor quickly pushed the operating rod to the right, and at the same time pushed the rudder, dodging the shells. The opponent was crazy, really crazy!
When you watch the cat fly by in front of you, it almost flew down by the nose. If there is a slight deviation, a collision will occur.
"Boom." The fifteen 500 kilogram bombs in the bomb bay were thrown down by bomb droppers almost at the same time, and all hit the mountain below.
After these bombs were thrown down, the Tu-22m2 bomber was relaxed. This was a last resort. After hanging the bomb, the maneuverability was greatly reduced. Now, this Tomcat fighter has been playing maneuver flight with its own side.
Come on, aren't you going to bump into it? See who is afraid of whom! Igor was also angry.
The cat flew over again, this time, flying towards the head, rolling around constantly, as if showing off its flight stunts.
Crash in. Crash in! See who is afraid of who! Igor's eyes are full of anger.
"The course is wrong, we are flying eastward." said the navigator.
Originally, they were flying backwards, but after being hit by the Tomcat fighter jet, they had to make two turns, but they went back.
If you can't hit it this time, turn back! In Igor's eyes, the tomcat fighter jet is getting bigger and bigger.
"Rick. What are you going to do!" Jackson in the back cabin couldn't help but shout. Such an action is just to show off and has no practical significance. Is this guy crazy?
"I'm going to hit this counterfire," Rick said.
After two passes, Rick finally made up his mind and after getting closer, he stopped rolling, then pulled the lever back slightly.
At the same time, the opponent's bulky bomber also pressed down, and the counterfire was lower. The Tomcat was on the top, and almost all the pilots of the reversefire could see the Immortal Missile mounted on the Tomcat fighter, just like they were flying over their scalp.
Igor suddenly said in his heart that he was not good, he was trapped!
"Bang." The sound of metal collision came from behind.
The wing root part of the left wing of the Tomcat fighter accurately hit the tall vertical tail behind the Tu-22m2.
The root of the wing is a wing box, which is made of titanium alloy and has a strong structure. The vertical tail of Tu-22m2 is just a aluminum alloy skin. The tall vertical tail behind it was instantly cut off half.
From a distance, it looks like an airplane without a hanging tail, and its rudder is left with less than one-tenth of it.
Rick looked to the left on the seat. His wings were still intact. Under the control of the computer, the variable swept wings still stretched and retracted freely, and he suffered almost no damage.
And the counterfire had turned into a turkey without a tail.
"Damn!" Igor cursed, with mountains everywhere below, and bombers that had lost their hanging tails, and suddenly rushed forward like a shaking person who had drunk too much vodka.
"Pull it up, pull it up!" the co-pilot on the other side shouted.
Igor used all his strength to operate the fighter plane and finally flew over the mountains here.
The tail rudder has only a very little aerodynamic moment left, so it can only be adjusted slightly. It is absolutely impossible to turn a 180-degree curvature before returning. Do you have to escape? Igor just wanted to order a catapult when he saw a long open space on the other side of the mountain, which is a dry riverbed.
The airflow in the mountains is complex and changeable, and the ejection of the counterfire is not completely safe, especially now, the height is so low that there may be risks when ejected. Igor gritted his teeth and lowered the nose.
"Put the landing gear," shouted Igor.
The landing gear of the third row was put down. Although it did not meet the conditions for taking off and landing at the field airport, Igor still tried his best to pull up the nose and land towards the descent!
However, just as the wheels had already touched the ground, a crosswind suddenly came. The crosswind in the mountains was very strong, which directly blown the wings high on the left and low on the right. When landing, the wings were in the maximum wingspan. Suddenly, the wings on the right touched the ground.
The wing tip touched the ground and then bounced back suddenly. Igor now had no other moves except the brake wheel, and the riverbed was too short.
"Bang, bang bang." As Igor stepped on the brake, there was a loud noise coming from below. The counterfire wheel was originally a high-pressure tire, but Igor was savagely operated by the brakes. The brakes were too strong, and suddenly, several tires were broken.
The one that exploded was the wheel on the left, which was originally rebounding to the left. With this explosion, the left side suddenly sank, and the entire fuselage suddenly dunked.
The fuselage rubs against the ground and emits sparks. If the remaining fuel in the fuselage leaks out, it will definitely be an explosion.
In the inverted fuselage, looking at the scenery in front, Igor also shouted in horror.
Finally, the fuselage stopped, and the four crew members who were still shocked, except for one fainted, all the rest were still conscious. Unlocked the seat belt and began to slowly climb out of the cabin.
The Tomcat fighter jet passed through the sky. Looking at the complete fighter jet that was forcibly landing on the riverbed, Rick couldn't help but whistle a loud slogan in the cockpit.
Yes! It's successful!
The air battle has ended, with two F-16 chasing the Soviet MiG-25. One of them was injured by the Rattlesnake missile and fled back to Afghan airspace, while the other returned unscathed.
When Hussein's Tomcat fighter jet returned, the battle was over.
When he flew past the dry riverbed, he saw that the ground troops had taken control of the place and they were dispatched very quickly.
Rick was driving a Tomcat fighter plane and was open to the field above Peshawar Airport. He saw the ground crew below waving to him. Then, he turned three times, aimed at the runway, and landed.
I thought my father would come to greet him on the runway, but when I got off the plane, I could not see anyone except the cheering ground staff. None of the Americans who usually work at the base saw me.
Jackson got off the rear cabin and looked at the wing box of the wing. He sighed. The front had been slightly deformed by the impact! It was so lucky that the wing could still rotate normally!
Mechanical fatigue has occurred, and these wings need to be repaired.
"Rick, this impact cost at least $800,000," Jackson said. "This wing box is made of titanium alloy, and $800,000 is also the company's internal price."
"I have to be scolded." Rick looked at the Wing Box and couldn't help but sigh. After saying that, he asked the ground staff next to him: "Where is the commander of the base?"
"I went to the emergency landing location of the Soviet plane." said a ground crew member.
Northwest of Peshawar base, one hundred kilometers away.
There are mountains around. Being able to have such a riverbed in the mountains is simply leaving a way out for the plane, and at the same time, it also gives oneself a chance!
Although the plane has been turned upside down and the wings on one side have been broken, the fuselage is kept intact. If it is repaired, it may be able to fly back into the sky!
The people who came to the air base here by helicopter were full of fiery eyes, especially those Americans.
When the air combat broke out, the rest of the Peshawar military region were also on high alert. After receiving the news of the fighter's fall, the nearest ground force was immediately dispatched. As a result, the pilots were caught and did not run away. At the same time, the plane was also well protected.
"Mr. Brigadier General, what do you plan to deal with this plane?" John said to Mhamad, the general manager sent by Grumman.
When they learned that a counterfire was forced to descend, these people were all moved and asked to come with them. After all, they are helping themselves now, and Mhamad has no reason to refuse.
When they arrived here, they saw this almost intact bomber, and their eyes were wide open.
Of course, Mhamad knew what they meant, and now, he still had to sway their appetite.
"Of course, I'll take it back to the base first," said Mhamad. "You can't stay here for wind and sunshine. However, the mountain road is rugged and it's not easy to transport this plane."
"Disassembly! We disassemble it into several sections and can be transported out by truck!" John said: "We are willing to help our friends."
Even if you can't get it, you can still learn more about this fighter jet during the disassembly.
