Since the speeds of both sides are similar, even if MiG-29 is chasing, it can only maintain the same distance and cannot catch up. Moreover, if it chases through, it may just be the ambush of the other party.

While the MiG-29 fleet was wondering whether it needed to catch up, new news came from MiG-31. In the rear, a four-aircraft formation was approaching quickly!

In just a few minutes, three batches of enemy aircraft were harassing one after another, and there was definitely a problem here! The pilot of the MiG-29 was hesitating whether to turn his head to chase. If he chased, maybe the other party would fly away immediately like last time.

At this moment, MiG31 issued a warning and the other party fired a missile!

The last batch of fighter jets came were the main attack! Faced with the raid from the Pakistan Air Force, the MiG-29 fleet was not panicked. They began to turn sideways and then eliminated their signals in the echo.

The double vertical tail of the MiG 29 moved the airflow, and the body skillfully turned 90 degrees. According to the experience last time, they could already shake off the other party's missiles.

However, the news from MiG31 made them even more surprised, and those missiles were still flying in!

The last two batches were all F-16, and the third batch was the four real F-14 Tomcat fighter jets!

Rick was flying the fighter plane and trying the new tactics he had come up with. When the opponent started to turn, he followed him, never allowing the opponent's speed to be perpendicular to his nose, so that he could lock the opponent all the time!

Looking at the signals still on the screen, the radar officer in the rear cabin was excited and continued to track them until the active radar started working!

Time passed by minute by minute, and the Tu-16 electronic jammer has begun to release interference. Unfortunately, the Immortal Bird has very strong anti-jamming ability and dare not get too close to the battlefield. The Tu-16 electronic jammer has not played any role.

Some MiG-29s began to climb vertically, while others began to dive, trying to get rid of the chasing Immortal missiles. Unfortunately, only one person succeeded.

Four Immortal Missiles killed three MiG29s. When the heavy warhead exploded, the light MiG29 had no chance of surviving.

The remaining five MiG29s were all watching their opponents approaching in surprise. This time, they were no longer confident in the upcoming close combat because their fighter planes were almost out of fuel!

In the Soviet Union, there were two main fighter development institutions. Migoyan mainly designed fighter jets, while Sukhoi mainly designed interceptors. In the Soviet combat philosophy, Migoyan's fighter jets were mainly used at front-line airports, so the range was not too long. In order to increase the thrust-to-weight ratio, two engines were used. In order to increase maneuverability and reduce the fuel carrier coefficient. In order to adapt to the front-line airports in the field, auxiliary air intakes were used, which also occupied the space of the fuel tank. These made the range of the Migo29 very small. Without the auxiliary fuel tank, the maximum range was only 1,500 kilometers, and the combat radius of high-speed high-speed high-return high-speed return was only 500 kilometers. This was the most fuel-efficient situation. Just now, three batches of targets flew from different directions, allowing the Migo-29 to accelerate and catch up several times, and once it was opened and the fuel consumption increased sharply.

Because the MiG 29 has short legs, it was once teased by Americans as the defender of the airport.

In contrast, the Su-27 has a large internal oil carrier coefficient, and there is almost no Su-27 fighter with a secondary fuel tank to perform missions.

It was based on this shortcoming of MiG 29 that Mhamad formulated the tactics just now. Finally, while avoiding the Immortal Birds, MiG 29 made high-motor movements, further consuming precious fuel.

Now, their remaining fuel has just enough to return to Bagram Air Force Base.

Continue to fight? If you don’t have enough fuel, you will return to the air. If you are caught up by those enemy planes and attack, the consequences will be very tragic. What should you do?

"The fuel is running out and you must return." said the MiG-29's long-distance pilot.

At this time, two MiG31s acting as early warning aircraft in the back flew up and began to fight against the Tomcat fighter jets with the R33 missiles they carried in order to win time for the retreat of the MiG29 fleet.

They originally wanted to use their advantages of good maneuverability to fight against Tomcat fighters like last time, and use the R73 with large off-axis launch capability and helmet sight to shoot down the arrogant Tomcat fighter. Unfortunately, before they got close enough to fight at close range, they had already used up their fuel and left in shame.

As a heavy interceptor, the MiG31 has obvious advantages at this time. Its phased array radar is not afraid of interference at all, and guides the R33 missile to fly towards the Tomcat fleet.

This time, the r33 missile has been improved again. It can not only be semi-actively guided, but also can instead attack the interference source when it is discovered. It can be successfully transformed into this batch of missiles in a short period of time. It can only be said that the engineers of the pennant are very outstanding.

After the Tomcat fleet found that the other side had fired missiles, it did not fight and immediately turned around and flew away. Since the MiG31 was originally in the rear, in order to drive the Tomcat fleet and cover the evacuation of its own MiG29 fleet, it was almost the missiles launched at the maximum range of the R33 missile. Therefore, after the Tomcat fighter retreated, the R33 missiles were not enough.

The two sides have stopped contact and return to their respective airspace.

The MiG-29 fleet returned at the most economical speed at an altitude of 8,000 meters. The pilots were speechless. If there was fuel, they could give it a try, but now, they withdraw from the battle because the fuel is exhausted, which is simply ironic!

They didn't know that in the mountainous area below, four F-16 fighter jets were flying rapidly in the valley. Although this place was already considered Afghan airspace, there was no discovery of Afghan air defense radar in the mountainous area.

"067, the target has already flew above you and can attack!" An early warning aircraft notice came from the headset.

"Received." Kadri said in the radio: "The hunting fulcrum begins!"

Open the afterburner and pull the operating lever backwards. The f110 engine at the tail sprays out flames, pushing the fighter to climb up quickly.

Hunting fulcrum!

In the state of returning, they entered the Afghan airspace. The four MiG29s were very vigilant. At the same time, due to the interference of the jammer, their radio communication signals were very poor.

The F-16 fighter jets that suddenly climbed up from the low altitude easily touched their backs. At this time, they did not find anything at all.

"Do it!" Kadri said, pressing the launch button, an Aim-9l missile flew out of the wingtip pylon.

Hatak and others also fired a missile one after another. Without looking at their own results, they continued to lower the slope, re-enter the low altitude, and return from the mountainous areas.

At this time, the MiG31 has also entered Afghan airspace. The huge phased array radar in front has just been turned off. Although this thing is more powerful, the huge power brings a lot of heat. It relies on hydraulic power to dissipate heat. Even so, long-term work will still overwhelm it. Therefore, after entering Afghan airspace, its radar has been turned off.

The MiG29 fleet was still flying steadily until a loud bang came from behind. Then, an alarm light flashed on the dashboard in front of him.

The left engine failed! What's going on?

The pilot turned his head back, hoping to see the situation behind. Unfortunately, the MiG 29's high hunchback made the vision behind very small, and the line of vision was blocked, so he could not see the situation behind at all.

At the same time, an explosion came.

"There is an attack behind!" The chief aircraft reacted, pulled the fighter upside down, and wanted to see the enemy aircraft following behind.

Unfortunately, there was all kinds of empty sky, nothing, only three MiG29s that had been hit.

Two of the four Aim-9l missiles hit one target. Since they were all tail-chasing and shooting, they did not off-target. Since the two engines of the MiG-29 were far away, even though one engine was broken, only the unlucky guy who hit two fell, and the other two were barely able to fly.

The oil was almost exhausted, and there was only one engine left. The pilot of the MiG-29 fleet was full of anger and frustration. This time, he was completely trapped in the other party's trick!

This battle is much more complicated than before. In the past, it only required to discover enemy aircraft and guide their own fighters to fight. But now, to lure the opponent away, it must appear in the opponent's radar screen in batches. The grasp of the situation on the battlefield and the command of each batch of fighters must be very accurate.

Air combat is also an art!

Especially in the end, even though they flew into Afghanistan, Mhamad did not let them go. A team of F-16s passed by at a very low altitude hunted three, but no loss was made on their own.

Grit also admires Mhamad very much, he is a genius commander!

The Peshawar Air Force Base was filled with joy, and the haze of the last time the fighter plane was shot down was gone.

Although it was a cross-border attack, the conflict between the two sides has now completely escalated. The Soviets wanted to attack the Pakistan Air Force several times, and doing so was just a lesson for them. Besides, after the attack was completed, Pakistan's F-16 had already drilled into the mountains and returned to the mountainous areas. The Soviets had no evidence of the Pakistan Air Force's cross-border attack.

Although the MiG29 has excellent mobility, it still has shortcomings, with short legs, poor vision, and behind electronic devices, which are all weaknesses that can be grasped.

With the continuous harassment of the Soviets, Pakistan's Western Front became tense, and no one expected that at this moment, the Eastern Front had a quiet change. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
