One of the two fighter jets of the other side had disappeared from the screen, but the other was still there. At this time, the distance between the two sides had reached an effective range of 40 kilometers.

Arslan pressed the button on the driving rod, and a sparrow missile broke away from the launch frame on the left and flew forward.

The maximum range of the sparrow is forty-four kilometers, but this maximum range refers to the farthest distance that the missile can fly, or in other words, after the missile is launched, the engine can only burn for more than ten seconds. The rest is all missiles flying without power, while forty-four kilometers refers to the speed of the missile being reduced to zero (or close to zero, and the missile has fallen), so although the maximum is forty-four kilometers, no one will choose to launch at this distance.

In fact, forty kilometers is not close anymore, and within thirty kilometers, you can win. However, Arslan has increased the aircraft speed to Mach 1.5 just now, and the speed of the missile is combined with the speed of the fighter. In addition, the two sides are now fighting head-on, and the distance is still close, so Arslan finally launched the missile.

After the missile flew out, Arslan could no longer perform large overload maneuvers, otherwise the missile would be unlocked.

The wingman next to him did not listen to his orders and made a rolling maneuver. Abbas suppressed his anger in the radio and said, "Blue Bird, prepare for enemy planes, and prepare for medium-range air-to-air missiles."

The radar operator behind was very nervous because the radar had discovered that the other party was launching missiles. According to the current situation, if the side did not evade, it would be likely to be hit by the other party. However, if you evade by yourself, the immortal bird still in the sky would be in danger of not being able to find the target.

He suddenly felt that it was the wingman that was right, and that he could only attack the enemy by avoiding the opponent's missiles first.

But it was not him who drove the plane, he was the missile manager.

"The opponent's missile is expected to arrive in ten seconds." The radar operator became even more nervous.

"Eight seconds."

At this time, they had already visually discovered the missile and was flying towards them quickly.

Finally, the Immortal Missile has entered the autonomous guidance stage, and the missile's seeker has discovered the target it was originally locked.

Since the target has been discovered, it has nothing to do with the carrier next.

"The Immortal Birds have entered the autonomous guidance. The first release of this book comes from the Burning Scorpion." The radar operator said nervously. Now, they still have a few seconds left.

The flying missile had already appeared on the goggles on Abbas's helmet. He was not afraid at all. He turned on the afterburner and rushed straight to the fighter.

In modern times, the probability of shooting down by head attack is less than 50%, and tail chase attack is the highest. In head attack, a bold way to get rid of it is to fly towards the opponent's missile. At the last second, it will maneuver quickly and the opponent will wipe his fuselage.

However, this opportunity must be grasped very well. If the maneuver is too early, it will only consume valuable energy. If the maneuver is too late, it will be killed by the other party.

However, Abbas is very sure because he is very familiar with the performance of the Sparrow Air-to-air missile. Although this missile has the ability to attack head-on, the semi-active continuous wave guidance method makes it very slow to judge both sides who are flying fast.

But he didn't know that the Iraqi Air Force was equipped with a new model of missile that adopted pulse Doppler guidance!

The radar operator has begun to count down, five, four, three, two.

Just as the radar operator reached two, Abbas pushed the operating rod forward and the huge Tomcat fighter began to fall rapidly. In this case, the opponent's missiles were likely to fly over from above without any time to react.

The radar operator in the rear cabin raised his head and looked above his head, hoping to see the missile fly by.

Sure enough, the missile flew over the top of his head without following it!

However, before he was happy, he heard a violent explosion coming from behind.

Although the opponent's missile did not hit the front, it hit the engine on the rear side of the Tomcat.

The two Tomcat's engines are relatively far apart. When one side of the engine loses power, it will lead to uncontrollable yaw. What's even more serious is that when the engine is destroyed, the rudder above the engine will be reimbursed.

What's more, they are still in the dive process, and as a result, the yaw and dive caused the plane to enter the stall tail spin.

If this situation is usually changed by experienced pilots, but now, without the support of the tail rudder surface, Abbas is no longer able to make the situation come true.

When they were five hundred meters above the ground, the two chose to eject and escape.

At this time, the immortal birds they launched had entered the final stage.

After the formation was threatened like this, the MiG23 electronic jammer at the end of the formation behind finally activated all-frequency and all-round electronic interference, but the power was adjusted to the lowest level.

Although the electronic jammer has always been with the formation, it was not put into work at the beginning. It was not that the formation commander forgot, nor that the formation commander did not take it seriously. It was the Red Bird 2 cruise missile launched by the F-20 fighter jet in front. There are many electronic components used for civilian use and have poor anti-electromagnetic interference. If he activated all the interference, it would affect the attack of his own cruise missiles.

Now, in order to deal with the Immortal Birds, the MiG23 jammer, which was originally intended to interfere when bombing in the formation, finally turned on its own killer weapon. Suddenly, a strong electromagnetic signal filled the airspace within a radius of 20 kilometers. This interference can completely make the Immortal Bird's active seeker lose its target.

The pilot of the MiG 23 jammer mission has experienced many times. He is very aware of the power of the high-power interference pod mounted on both sides of his wings. He just turned the power to a minimum, and even so, he could protect the entire formation.

However, the pilot of the MiG 23 jammer did not know one thing. The Immortal Bird had already added a function when it was designed: if it encountered strong interference and caused the target to be lost, it would turn to attack the source of interference!

When the Immortal Bird dived, the radar turned on and captured the target assigned to it when it was launched, but it was strongly disturbed, causing the radar to not work properly.

The Immortal Bird is angry. Since you dare to interfere with me, don’t blame me for being rude!

With the extremely high kinetic energy that dived, the Immortal Bird rushed to the electronic jammer with the electronic jammer hanging under the wings.

The pilot of the MiG23 was still flying smoothly, without knowing that the disaster was coming.

The pilot inadvertently looked up at the blue sky. Suddenly, his pupils shrank, and the huge missile was hitting him!

This made the pilot's soul frightened. The missile that kind of missile was smashed down, not to mention explosion, and the half-ton bullet body could reimburse the MiG-23.

Avoid it quickly!

However, with heavy electronic interference pods hanging in front of them, there is a propeller generator in front to provide power to the electronic pod. It was originally very difficult to fly normally, and it was impossible to perform large overload maneuvers.

The MiG23 electronic jammer was originally dominated in the sky by strong interference. Now, it has been attacked by missiles, and this kind of missile is not afraid of electromagnetic interference, so he has no choice.

What to do? The pilot made a quick decision, threw away the electronic interference pod, and maneuvered to avoid it!

Anyway, I will be wiped out at the next moment, and I still care about how expensive the electronic interference pod is! Instead of taking the interference pod together, it is better to take a gamble.

He tossed the switch on the side, and the two cumbersome pods were immediately thrown down. Then, he turned on the extra force and climbed up quickly.

The huge Immortal Missile Missile passed by him, caught up with the pod he threw, and blew the pod to nothing.

The pilot was so shocked that he was sweating coldly. Among the pilots of the Iraqi Air Force, he was probably the first to be tracked by the Immortal Missile Missile and was not killed.

But then, he felt that if he went back, he would probably be punished. Both pods were thrown away by himself. That was a project led by Mr. Kusai himself, which cost a lot, but it was much better than being bombarded by the Immortal Bird.

At the same time, he was also a little surprised. Why did the Immortal kill the pod and let him go?

On the other side of the sky, air battle continued. Arslan killed one tomcat, and the other tomcat was freed from locking, but then it was locked by two F-20s.

Akbarri saw that the chief aircraft Abbas was shot down and he had no intention of fighting. At this time, the J-7 fleet behind him had arrived, so he immediately accelerated his retreat after getting rid of the lockdown.

In air combat, because the Tomcat is too precious, one of the strategies of the Iranian Air Force is to let the Tomcat turn on the radar at high altitudes in the rear, use it as an early warning aircraft, monitor the battlefield airspace, and then command the J-7 fleet without high-power radar to conduct air combat.

Therefore, Akbarri's highway escape cannot be considered a deserter by the command center in the rear. He has very legitimate reasons.

The three J-7s in the rear finally arrived at the war zone after taking off urgently.

"At eight o'clock, at thirty, there are eight enemy planes." Akbarri retreated and used his radar to start air alert missions for other fighter planes on his side.

The J-7 does not have a high-power fire control radar, so it only has the ability to fight in close range. Under the command of the Tomcat in the rear, they are ready to catch the enemy at high speed.

Unfortunately, Arslan did not give them a chance. At this time, the distance between the two sides was only 30 kilometers. The second F-20 fighter formation launched a medium-range Sparrow Air-to-air missile at the J-7 formation. (To be continued)
