Chapter 989 Super Seven to help out

The main weapons of J-6 are the Rattlesnake missiles and machine guns.

In this era, although air-to-air missiles have been widely used, machine guns are still a common method of air combat, and the Pakistan Air Force's training in this area is also very good.

After Hasmi quickly converted the fire control to the cannon, the distance between the two sides had reached 500 meters. He used his sight to move the halo and began to try to trap the other party's plane.

But it was unsuccessful. The pilot of the MiG-23 knew that there was an aircraft behind him, so he was maneuvering with a large load. The opponent's turning angular speed was very fast. The J-6 behind the fire control method could not hold the aircraft at all, and the halo was thrown aside. Hasmi made a quick decision and immediately switched to the fixed halo. According to the large entry angle, he corrected the advance amount according to the target projection. What he aimed was that the opponent's possible position was completely shooting at the air.

Three 30mm cannons began to spit out flames. At this time, the plane happened to appear in the place covered by the flames. Suddenly, the pilot felt the plane tremble, and then countless holes appeared on the fuselage. The MiG-23 was beaten to explode in the air.

Major Boqitaojin's eyes were almost emitting anger. They had already recognized that it was a J-6 fighter jet that was behind in the Pakistan Air Force. However, it was the modification of the MiG-19, which had long been eliminated in the Soviet Air Force, that actually knocked down their MiG-23! Moreover, the air cannons were used!

He and the wingman behind him did not dare to launch missiles just now, for fear of accidentally hurting their friend planes. Now that the plane has been shot down by the other party, they themselves have no scruples and each fired an R-60 missile.

Seeing the plane turned into a fireball, Major Boqi Taojin breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, a lagging J-6 fighter jet actually killed one of their MiG-23s. Fortunately, they shot down the other side. If the J-6 was allowed to run away, they would not have the face to go back.

At this moment, the sound of a radar alarm receiver came from the headphones. They were already locked by the radar!

Just as J-6 was fighting bravely, four Super Seven fighters that took off from the rear base finally arrived in the airspace, and they all carried Sparrow Air-to-air missiles and Rattlesnake fighting missiles.

The 18th Fighter Squadron. They have been reinstalling the Super Seven fighter jets since last year, which is also the fifth time they have taken off to perform combat missions.

The pilot Jamal Soleimani calmly ordered his fighter planes to follow the instructions inside to enter the war zone. At 80 kilometers, they turned on their fire control radar.

The Pakistan Air Force's Super Seven fighter jet is equipped with the same fire control system as Iraq's F-20. This fire control system, which uses the Anapg67 radar as its main equipment, is more advanced than the F-16. It has the ability to guide medium-range sparrow missiles. Moreover, with its relationship with the United States, the Pakistan Air Force is equipped with the Aim-7f sparrow missiles, which is even more advanced than the Iraqi Air Force.

"Be careful, prepare to launch the sparrow missile." Jamal shouted in the radio.

At this time, the Soviet Air Force on the opposite side was only concerned about besieging the J-6 fighter jet and shot down their companions with the cannon. They had already made them angry. They didn't know that they had been aimed at by missiles.

When he heard the sound of the radar alarm receiver in the headphones, Major Boqi Taojin knew that he had been attacked by a sneak attack, and he immediately ordered the formation to dive.

At this distance, the opponent must have used a medium-range bomb. In this era, the medium-range bombs generally lack the ability to shoot downward, so as long as you use the complex mountainous terrain below, the opponent's missile can be unlocked.

Just as the MiG-23 formation began to dive, the Super Seventh formation had each launched a sparrow missile, and then, it discovered the dive of the opponent's formation.

The radar of the Super Seven has very powerful capabilities and can find low-altitude fighter jets from the complex ground echoes. However, the Aim-7f missile it launches is not necessarily the case. This missile has low resistance to radar signals reflected from the ground, especially when shooting downward at low altitudes. It was not until the Aim-7m was equipped with a new reverse single-pulse seeker that greatly increased the low-altitude combat capability. This seeker was the result of the United States plagiarizing the sky flash.

Therefore, the Sky Flash missile introduced by Iraq stands in the first line of medium-range air-to-air missiles. Moreover, the Active Sky Flash, which is about to be put into production, gives Iraq a combat capability equivalent to the Aim-120.

The air combat was going on very quickly, and the sweep angle of the three MiG-23 fighters was adjusted to the maximum, which gave them excellent low-altitude performance, which was also the advantage of variable sweep wings.

All four sparrow missiles flying in were unlocked. At this time, the MiG-23 fighter jets had dived between the mountains. They were flying at an extremely low altitude in the mountains. At this time, even if the sky flashed, they would have no choice but to do anything to them.

Jamal was not discouraged. On the radar screen in front of him, he had seen all the missiles lost their targets, while the other party's plane drilled into the mountains.

You can't let them slip away! All of our two J-6 were shot down by them, so you must take revenge!

The more than seventh segment was divided into two dual-machine formations, and the height was also lowered.

"Let the Pakistanis see the true level of our Soviet pilots." Major Boqitaojin shouted in the radio that they were all excellent pilots, and their flight levels were far higher than those of the Afghan Air Force.

This time they were intercepted by the opponent's medium-range bomb, they knew that it must be the super seven fighter jet that the opponent had newly equipped. This type of fighter jet was improved from the MiG-21. The MiG-21 was developed based on the experience of jet fighters' air combat in the Korean War. It requires lightness, flexibility, fast climbing, good transonic and supersonic handling, and strong firepower. High-altitude and high-speed performance was placed first, and ultra-low-altitude performance was not excellent.

Therefore, in the Soviet Union, the MiG-21 was equipped with only a part of the MiG-23, but the MiG-23 was equipped with a large amount of equipment.

In the mountains of western Pastan, a low-altitude battle was staged, which was originally a common combat airspace in the era of propeller cannon attacks, and now it has been moved to a fast jet.

After entering the low altitude, the MiG-23 was quickly divided into stand-alone machines, because following the long-distance machine in the mountains is not a fun thing. If you are not careful, you will have the risk of hitting the mountain.

Four aircraft were over seven, divided into two dual-aircraft formations and flew towards the mountainous area.

At the height of 7, one thousand meters, after visually discovering a MiG-23 flying below, Jamal and Nawaz flew towards him.

The prototype of Super Seven, the low-altitude performance of MiG-21 is indeed not very good. However, after becoming Super Seven, the low-altitude performance has been greatly improved because it uses a double-delta wing structure and is optimized specifically for close combat.

What they were heading towards was Major Boqitaojin's MiG-23.

Major Boqitaojin also saw the two Super Seven planes that appeared in his sight were completely different from the MiG-21. Is that really the Super Seven modified by MiG-21? Or another type of plane?

Whatever it is, beat him down!

Major Boqitaojin turned on the afterburner, and the MiG-23 fighter made an excellent climb and flew towards the two planes.

While flying, Major Boqitaojin turned on the fire control system and operated an R-60 missile under his wing. This missile is the latest and improved type. It was only equipped with the air force in the late 1970s and has head-on attack capabilities.

The Super Seven is now equipped with the Aim-9p1 missile, which is a type of air-to-air missile mainly for export developed by the US Air Force. It is also equipped with a large number of Pakistan Air Force. However, this missile does not have omnidirectional attack capabilities like the Aim-9l mounted by the F-16. It has only improved to the Aim-9p4 type, and used some of the Aim-9l technology, which has the same all-round marker finder as the L type, and has the ability to omnidirectional attack.

Therefore, during this head-on attack, Major Boqitaojin had the advantage. He kept rushing the nose towards the opponent, allowing the seeker of the r-60m missile to lock the infrared radiation source, and then launched the missile.

"Note that the other party fired missiles, released infrared bait bombs, and maneuvered to avoid flights." Jamal said.

The missile flew towards Nawaz.

Nawaz felt blood flowing upwards in his body. He was a new pilot. Although his skills were excellent in both the aviation school and the field troops, this was the first real battle after all, and there was only one chance, which was the difference between life and death.

"Bang, bang, bang." The infrared bait bomb was released from the tail of the machine and spread out in the sky, as bright as fireworks.

Then, he pressed the slope and dived rapidly towards the right forty-five degrees.

One way to avoid infrared-guided air-to-air missiles is to release infrared bait bombs and high-speed dives when the opponent approaches.

Unlike tail-chasing attacks, in the face-to-face attack, the speed difference between the two sides is very large. At the same time, due to the limitation of the seeker, the field of view is not very large. Therefore, release infrared bait bombs to lure the opponent's missiles there. Then, as long as the dive speed is fast enough, it can disappear from the opponent's field of view, that is, let the opponent lose the target.

Nawaz was under a huge overload and felt that the muscles on his face were about to be torn off. The mountains below were coming to his face. He was diving, and the height here was very low, and there was a danger of hitting the mountain at any time.

However, he is very confident in his fighter jets.

Just when the height dropped sharply to 400 meters, he pulled the operating lever back and pulled it up when he almost rubbed the abdomen against the top of the mountain.

Major Boqitaojin had no time to launch the second missile, and both sides passed by.
