Chapter 411 Emergency takeoff
Chapter 411 Emergency Takeoff
Avas periphery, field air defense base.
A large vehicle-mounted air defense radar antenna is rotating constantly. This is a meter-wave radar. There are countless antennas on the radar antenna, forming a rectangular box, vigilantly scanning the surrounding airspace.
This is the most cutting-edge radar in the C3i system of the Southern Military Region of Iraq. Because there is no early warning aircraft, it undertakes the early warning mission of the entire system. Once an Iranian plane attacks, it is the first pair of eyes.
The radar operators were closely watching the radar screen. At this time, the small battles around Avas were still continuing. Maybe at the next moment, they would have to retreat back and return to a safe area, but now, all the people are persevering.
In the east of Avas, the plains are over, with rolling mountains. This radar simply cannot monitor aircraft flying low in the mountains, and can only be at high places. However, it can still provide early warning to the system.
Suddenly, a large number of signals appeared on the radar screen, densely packed.
The radar operator was immediately shocked, Iranian planes! How could Iranians have so many planes!
Judging from the radar screen, there were at least a dozen aircraft. Since they were flying at a low altitude, they were not immediately discovered by the radar after they came out of the mountain. Instead, they were discovered at less than 80 kilometers away from their radar station.
Then, the second batch of targets appeared again, with more than a dozen aircraft.
The enemy and enemy identification device did not respond, it was definitely an Iranian plane!
Eighty kilometers away, for planes in the sky, it is only a short distance.
At this time, the c3i system showed its advantages. After being determined as an enemy plane, the heading, speed, altitude and other information of each aircraft had been continuously transmitted back to the rear through the data link.
In normal times, they need to report layer by layer with voice, and then after confirmation from the command center, the fighter jets at the rear airport will be wasted precious time. Maybe, just as they were about to report, their radar station was already bombed.
The same is true now. Just after discovering enemy planes on the radar screen, they heard the rumbling sound of large Iranian aircraft flying at an ultra-low altitude outside. Then, a sharp roar and a bomb was thrown down.
Oh no, the Iranians come so fast!
The Iranian aircraft group in the sky visually discovered the radar station on the ground, which was not planned. However, the commander of the attack formation was also very adaptable and immediately ordered an F-5 fighter jet to drop a bomb.
Fortunately, the control room was several dozen meters away from the radar antenna. After the radar antenna was bombed, several of them were not injured. Moreover, they found that various data of the attack of the Iranian National People's Congress aircraft group had been shown to the general control room of the military command.
Since the Iranian ground attack began, Izart has almost never left the headquarters. When he was tired, he slept in the bed in the office for a while and remained alert at all times.
After receiving the message, he entered the main control room as soon as possible. When he saw the data displayed on the screen, he was stunned. However, he then recovered: this was a large-scale attack by the Iranian Air Force, and they must be intercepted!
At this time, a sharp air defense alarm sounded at the Basra Air Force Base, and the data was transmitted to the air force base simultaneously. They immediately became busy.
Then, the superior's order came down, and all Iranian planes were intercepted at all costs!
At the same time, the field air defense missiles arranged in Basra, Abadan, and these important areas, and the Soviet-made Sam Six missiles were also on high alert. The radar turned on and scanned the surrounding sky.
Arslan stepped into the cockpit, and today he was on duty on combat readiness. His fighter jet No. 68001 was installed in the air-optimal: two Sparrow missiles and two Strokesnake missiles.
He and his wingman, a two-machine formation, took off quickly from the runway.
In the rear, each F-20 and Phantom F1 are urgently loading medium-range air-air missiles. These fighters usually carry two combat missiles, and when they perform specific combat missions, they will carry various corresponding missiles.
Now, Sparrow and Matra 530, these missiles were hurriedly mounted on these aircraft, and the ground crew has received good training in this emergency.
One by one, they began to take off and headed straight to the war zone.
Intercept the Iranian fighter planes and beat the Iranians down!
At Zubaier, the air defense positions arranged on the periphery were also on high alert. When he heard the sharp air defense alarm, the workers working in various workshops began to walk towards the air raid shelter.
Next to a Super Seven fighter, Pakistani pilot Saif Arnham was a little reluctant to leave. He joined the Pakistan delegation to participate in the modification of Super Seven in Iraq. So far, all the avionics of the Super Seven have been modified. Just yesterday, he also flew the plane and conducted a test flight. In order to match the fire control system, the fighter also carried a Sparrow missile and two Rattlesnake missiles, which were completely equipped with American equipment.
As a representative of the Pakistan Air Force, Saif has a good relationship with the Middle East countries. In the 1967 war, Saif used to fly a plane to participate in the air battle with the Israelites and achieved good results. Pakistan has always been in the war, and their pilots are of very high quality.
Faced with such an excellent fighter jet, when I learned that there was an enemy coming to air strike outside, I did not take off to fight, but stayed on the ground. It was a pity!
The Chinese people accompanying him were all disciplined, and even more so when they arrived abroad. After hearing the air strike sirens, they immediately followed the instructions of the security personnel to enter the air raid shelter. The Americans were afraid of death. After hearing the sirens, they ran the fastest.
But Sayf is not like this. Although the Pakistan Air Force is not as large as the Indian Air Force, the Pakistan Air Force did not suffer any losses in every India-Pakistan war because their pilots have a tenacious and decisive style. They are the most warlike air warriors!
Although the front-line radar position was destroyed, several radar stations arranged in the rear took over the early warning mission as soon as possible and monitored the large Iranian aircraft fleet flying from the northeast.
At the same time, the fleet of the Basra Air Force Base is also taking off and preparing to fight.
After Arslan took off, he crossed the Karen River with his wingman. As the first F-20 fighter jets to fight, as the fighter jets that had joined the C3i system, the two fighters received ground analysis data and assigned them two closest targets: the two fighters in the front of the enemy formation.
Arslan looked at the data on the multi-function monitor below and turned on his own fire control radar.
At this time, the distance between the two sides was ninety kilometers.
At this distance, you can prepare the Sparrow Air-to-air missile first. The aircraft will soon enter the range during rapid approaching. In particular, they are now carrying the latest Aim-7f missile imported from the United States. It has a longer range and a higher hit rate than Iran's Sparrow missile.
Just as Arslan was orderly preparing to launch the Sparrow Air-to-air missile, his airborne electronic equipment suddenly received a signal from the other group of aircraft, which was a signal unique to the awg-9 radar of the Tomcat fighter!
After the war started, Iraq purchased electronic equipment from France and modified it on fighter jets to specifically detect signals from the radar of this fighter jet.
Now, when I received that signal, it proves that the arrival of the Iranians is the most powerful Tomcat fighter!
In the past, as long as this signal was detected, the best choice for the Iraqi Air Force was to turn around immediately and accelerate escape. Their fighter performance could not compete with Iran's most powerful Tomcat fighter. It was not until the arrival of Phantom F1 that they had the ability to intercept Tomcats in the middle range.
And now, with the F-20 that is even better than the Phantom F1's avionics performance, Arslan has long been hoping to have a big fight with the Iranian Tomcat.
The Iranian Air Force backfired. It originally planned to use this radar signal to suppress the Iraqi Air Force so that they dare not fight, but now, none of them hope that the credit for shooting down the Tomcat fighter will fall on themselves.
Arslan once again resisted the order. He did not attack the two frontal fighters according to the data transmitted to him by the C3i system, but modified the target and attacked the fighter behind that emitted the awg-9 radar signal.
This is not the first time for Arslan. When he was flying the backward MiG23, he dared to take off to fight the Tomcats, not to mention that it has now been replaced by Iraq's most powerful F-20 fighter jet. He is eager to make achievements and kill the most powerful enemy.
Arslan manually modified the target in the fire control computer. At this time, the distance was close to forty kilometers. He used radar to lock the opponent's plane.
At this time, the disadvantage of the J-7 electronic equipment being backward was once again revealed that the J-7, which was locked with a pod that could emit radar signals, did not find itself locked by the other party's radar at all, because the J-7 did not have an omnidirectional radar warning receiver.
When a radar search target becomes a locked target, the electromagnetic beam will change. The radar alarm receiver is made based on this principle. However, the J-7 only installed an alarm receiver at the tail. The most susceptible thing to be sneak attacked by enemy aircraft is the rear. The J-7 does not have such electronic equipment on the side and in front.
Therefore, the locked J-7 did not respond at all, and they were still flying in level.
Arslan felt a little strange. At this distance, even if the Tomcats do not launch the Immortal Bird missile, then the Sparrow Air-to-air missile should be launched, right? However, the other party's fleet did not respond at all, and they were still flying smoothly.
At this time, the f-4 and f-5 bombers were conducting the final route confirmation and preparing to enter the attack state. However, due to the lack of powerful air-to-air radar, they did not expect that two aircraft had launched missiles at them dozens of kilometers away!
