Chapter 192 No-fly zone
No-fly zone! What a hell is this? Is there any reason to draw a piece of airspace above your head and prevent yourself from flying?
"In the eastern part of our country, in Kashmir, the Indian army frequently crossed the border and invaded our territory. Now it has occupied more than a dozen posts in our country. Now, our country has filed a serious protest and asked the Indian army to retreat immediately! Otherwise, our army will fight back severely! At the same time, in order to control air pollution, our country will conduct a one-year comprehensive inspection operation over Kashmir to determine the air quality over the sky. Therefore, any flying objects, including civil aviation passenger planes, are prohibited from flying, if they still fly, they will be shot down as UFOs. ︾" Pakistan's announcements are constantly playing on the radio.
"Bang," turned off the radio, and the commander of the Srinagar Air Force Base Dronavalli Reddy had a gloomy face. What does this mean? This is to challenge! Over Kashmir is the range of the air force here, and now it has been drawn into a no-fly area by the other party!
"Dong, dong." At this moment, a knock on the door came from outside.
"Come in." said Dronavalli.
The door was pushed open, and more than a dozen pilots wearing flight gear, carrying their flight helmets, stood in front of him: "Commander, why did our flight training stop today?"
They were all about to get on the plane, closed the canopy cover, the engine was ignited, and just as they were about to slide out of the runway, the tower command came from the headphones, stop flying, shut down the car, and return to the cavern.
Getting off the plane, they were very angry and headed straight to the base commander's office.
“Pakistan claims that the entire Kashmir region is a no-fly zone,” Dronavalli said: “In order to protect your safety, I have ordered that flight training be temporarily stopped.”
"What?" said Squadron Captain Putapa. "This is our sky, and they set up a no-fly zone. If we don't let us fly, we won't fly?"
"Yes, we are not afraid of Pakistanis at all. Let's go up and fight them!"
"The Pakistan Air Force is no longer the original Air Force. They are equipped with forty F-16 fighters and eighty F-14 fighters, especially the F-14s. This is the main carrier-based fighter of the US Navy. It can launch Immortal missiles with a range of more than 100 kilometers. Even the Soviet aircraft are suffering frequent losses. We are not ready yet. Go up rashly. Are you waiting to be intercepted by Immortal?"
"Commander, why are you so afraid of death!" Putapa said: "How can we be afraid of Pakistanis! Let's go up and fight with Pakistanis! What kind of Immortal Bird missiles are everywhere here. Even if they shoot missiles, we just need to dive and enter the mountains. Immortal Bird missiles can drill into the mountains to chase us? These missiles are just controllable rockets! Look at the previous few battle examples. The Soviets were shot at high altitude, and we can use the mountainous areas to cover the enemy. We can surround the four of us fighters and kill the Pakistani tomcat fighters! Let their tomcats turn into dead cats!"
There are mountains everywhere here, only the valleys in the middle. They fly here all year round and have long known the surrounding terrain. It is also possible to set up traps and hunt Pakistani Tomcat fighter jets.
Dronavalli hesitated for a moment. The Air Force Command meant to wait for the arrival of MiG 23mf and MiG 29.
In the past, the Indian Air Force had a complete advantage over the Pakistani Air Force. Pakistan's J-6, which is the MiG-19, was equipped with a large number of MiG-21 aircraft fleets.
In 1963, the Soviet Union began to supply MiG21s to India. So far, they have received a total of 830 aircraft. What they are most proud of is that 580 of them were made by themselves in India, and India has 20 squadrons of MiG21 serving at the same time.
What do Pakistanis have? They are all bought! And India has already started to build fighter jets! India is a major South Asian power!
Now, at Srinagar Air Force Base, the main force is three MiG21 fighter squadrons.
MiG21 has an advantage over MiG19, but it is not possible for F-16s. So, when Pakistan sold for 40 F-16s to the United States a few years ago, India also began to discuss with the Soviet Union and requested the introduction of new fighter jets. The Soviet Union immediately agreed and sold the MiG23 to India.
The transaction is not fast, and there is no battle on the Eastern Front anyway. This year, the three MiG 23 squadrons completed the modification and had combat capabilities. Unfortunately, they are all MiG 23bn, which is a combat bombing model, an air-optimized MiG 23mf, and a Soviet aircraft manufacturer.
In a blink of an eye, the Pakistan Air Force became so powerful. The MiG23 had just been equipped with the Indian Air Force and was already out of date. They needed more advanced fighter jets.
However, the development of Soviet fighter jets was originally behind the United States. The MiG29 had just equipped the Soviet army. If you want to export it to India, you would have to wait a few years.
The attack launched by India is of course also testing the reaction of the Pakistani people, and it is also a precursor to a large-scale attack. Now, just taking the first step, it has been challenged by Pakistan. Pakistan did not fight on the ground, but instead spent a circle on the sky.
Bad air pollution. In the 1980s, no one took air pollution seriously.
Now that I have bullied myself, do I still have to wait?
Looking at the pilot in front of him, Dronavalli gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, set up a trap and hunt Pakistan's Tomcat fighter jets!"
The pilots left, which was exactly what they wanted, and they had already formulated an action plan before they came.
Four light MiG21s opened up afterburners and slid on the runway, while taking off in formation. With such a short distance, only the best Indian Air Force can do it!
MiG21, a single-seat single-engine supersonic light fighter developed by the Migoyang Design Bureau in the early 1950s. Soviet pilots nicknamed it "triangle piano", while NATO called it the fish nest.
From the outside, this aircraft is like a pencil with two delta wings and a tail wing. There is nothing special about the aerodynamic layout. In actual use, in addition to large speeds and good deceleration performance, its maneuverability is poor. Because the nose intake and air intake occupies precious nose space, it cannot be equipped with high-performance radars. The electronic equipment is too simple, the weapon loading capacity is too small, and because it is a fuel-consuming turbojet engine, the air intake is limited, resulting in a short range, and the combat capability of this type of aircraft is limited.
In ancient Eastern countries, due to the lack of technology, they have been constantly imitating and improving. They have become the huge J-7 family. When the J-7 e, which uses double-triangle wing shapes and front-edge maneuver flaps, the maneuverability has undergone a complete change.
Most of the Indians now use it is manufactured or overhauled by their own Stan Aeronautics Co., Ltd., and the accident rate is extremely high. In later generations, until the retirement, nearly 500 MiG21 were dropped. It is an absolute flying coffin.
When the four MiG21s took off, one of them continued to climb high. The other three flew over from a low altitude and entered the mountain area next to them.
Putapa's hand kept operating the operating rod and shuttled through the mountains. It was the time when the pilot's skills were tested the most. Those Pakistani pilots would definitely not dare to fly like themselves in the mountains!
The one at high altitude is used as bait to attract Pakistani planes to attack, while the three at low altitudes will suddenly raise and attack Pakistani planes at the right time.
The four R-60 missiles under the wings revealed their fangs. Although the fighter jets may not be very advanced, they were carrying the third-generation air-to-air missiles from the Soviet Union!
"Four targets were discovered, three in the low-altitude mountainous areas and one in the high altitude." The e-2 early warning aircraft hovering over Pakistan immediately sent the report back.
Relying on long-range early warning performance, the e-2 early warning aircraft only needs to cruise in Pakistan's airspace to see everything about the Srinagar Air Base. When the news of the No-Fly Zone was announced, it took off from the Peshawar Air Base and reached the border line.
Two Tomcat fighter jets at Peshawar Air Force Base were escorting the left and right. The ec-130h electronic jammer was also flying aside.
The news reached the Sagoda Air Force Base. The four Tomcat fighters of the 18th Fighter Squadron who had been waiting for it immediately began their first attack operation.
The first phase of the No-Fly Zone mission is to completely block the Srinagar Air Force Base and destroy it immediately as long as it takes off!
The wing sweep angle was already at the end, and four Tomcat fighters rushed quickly in the sky. Looking at the blue sky, the pilot of the long aircraft Chris was in a rushing mood.
Indians! Arrogant Indians! From now on, you will have no chance to be with the sky!
"Blackbird Squadron, here is e-2." Clear words came from the headphones: "Three minutes later, we will enter the Jammu area. The target is circled in the mountains, turn on the radar, and shoot down the high altitude first. At twelve o'clock, the distance is 13, and the height is 10,000."
"Received." After taking off, the early warning aircraft took over the guidance.
"Blackbird understands," said Chris, whose squadron is called Blackbird Squadron, and Chris, as the squadron leader, is code-named Blackbird.
"The target, distance is 13, height is 10,000, and an immortal bird." The radar officer in the rear cabin accurately turned on the radar and locked the target.
"Start." At a distance of 80 kilometers, the fuselage trembled, and a heavy Immortal missile dragged the tongue of fire and flew out of Chris's sight.
"Low, three targets are flying in, at a distance of sixty, crossing the valley."
"Received." Chris said: "035,036,037, dive immediately and kill them with a rattlesnake!"
"I understand." The three wingmen immediately dived and also entered the mountainous area.
The engine at the tail emitted a huge roar, flying in the valley, like dancing on the palm of the god of death. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianyi, the novel is better, updated and faster!
