Both sides are turning, hoping to fly to the other party's tail in advance and bite the other party's back hemisphere to attack.

Even the F-14 fighter will not have an advantage in close combat capability compared to the Phantom 4000, let alone this kind of F-4 fighter. Although the Iranian pilot is very confident, the performance of the fighter is very different after all.

Seeing that he was still turning and preparing to find his Iranian fighter jet, Reyer turned on the fire control system without hesitation and chose the magic air-to-air missile for close combat.

The r550 magic infrared close-range combat missile is a short-range air-to-air missile designed by the French Matra in 1969. It was officially equipped with the French army in 1975 and exported to 18 countries. Its performance is better than the "rattlesnakes" in the early United States.

As Phantom F1 entered the Iraqi Air Force, this missile was put into service with the Iraqi Air Force, adding another option to the Iraqi Air Force's air combat weapons.

Now, this missile has made a contribution again.

The nitrogen-cooled indium antimonide photosensitive element at the front of the missile has been attracted by the huge heat source in front and can see the target clearly.

Then, the fire control system sent instructions, and the rocket engine at the tail of the missile ignited, and the magic air-to-air missile broke away from the launch frame and flew forward.

The more distinctive magic air-to-air missile is that it adopts a low-resistance, large overload, double-duck aerodynamic layout, which reduces the torque and response time of the deflection of the rudder surface, while increasing the rudder surface effect and increasing the maximum balanced attack angle that is compatible with the airflow separation generated. This has almost become a specimen for the development of a short-range large overload air-to-air missile. Moreover, in order to avoid the interference of the reverse air torque caused by the differential deflection of the pitch rudder surface on the bullet wing, the bullet wing is fixed on a sleeve that can rotate about the longitudinal axis of the bullet body. When the carrier aircraft flies, it is locked without moving through large bearings and locking keys, and can rotate freely after launch to make the missile roll stable, thereby obtaining close-range large overload launch and fighting capabilities.

The wings of the Magic Air-to-air missile rotated under the action of airflow, and at the same time, the missile was flying towards the Iranian plane in front at a very high speed.

After discovering that the other party had launched a missile, the f-4 ghost made large overload maneuver to the side and bottom, and on the other hand, it began to release the hot flame bomb. Hopefully, it could lead to the flying missile.

However, it has no effect.

The magic air-to-air missile accurately hit the Iranian plane. Two flames appeared in the sky, and two Iranian pilots successfully ejected the plane.

Two umbrella flowers bloomed in the sky, and their fighter planes had turned into a fireball and fell down.

Another Iranian F-4 fighter jet has lost its fighting spirit and attempted to withdraw from the battle. However, once the battle in the air begins, it will be a winner, and Iran is undoubtedly the loser.

The f-4 was ready to use low altitude to escape, but was hit by a missile that followed. The pilot had no chance to parachute.

The Phantom F1 squadron behind was very unlucky because before they reached the distance to exchange fire with Iranian fighter jets, their prey had already begun to escape.

In this air battle, the Iraqi Air Force achieved a complete victory with the command of the best fighter jets and the air early warning aircraft, shooting down five opponents and injured one, but the side did not suffer any losses.

Of course, this is also the result of the weakening of the Iranian Air Force. If the Iranian Air Force has two squadrons of F-14 fighter jets, then even if the Iraqi Air Force can win, it may have to pay a lot of money.

In the underground bunker of the Ministry of Defense, Rafsanjani received a report from the air force base that his own fighter planes had been shot down. The sky of Tehran was already open in front of Iraq!

Rafsanjani no longer wanted to pursue the mistakes in this battle. He knew that the combat effectiveness of the Iranian Air Force was weakening, but he did not expect that it would become so weak. Now, the question he needs to worry about is what this air battle means and what actions will the Iraqi army take next.

The worst case scenario is that this is the prelude to Iraq's large-scale offensive.

"Boom!" Suddenly, a huge explosion came from a distance, and the vibration could be felt in the underground bunker.

Did the Iraqi Air Force fighter jets fly overhead so quickly to throw bombs? Rafsanjani was a little angry. The Air Force fighter jets failed, but why did the air defense missiles and anti-aircraft guns deployed near Tehran have no response?

"Report." At this time, an operational staff member came in and said: "Our airport was hit by three missiles fired from Iraq. One of them fell on the main runway and blew up the runway. The other two fell on the hangar. Our Tehran Air Force Base had lost all its combat capabilities, and one fell to the residential area."

The explosion he heard just now was a Scud missile launched by Iraq. For some reason, it actually broke off the target. Within a range of 300 kilometers, it actually escaped from the target three kilometers away.

And the other few hit the target.

Launching missiles? What missiles have such great power, can paralyze their air bases in just a few? And why is the air defense firepower not showing any performance?

"Where is our Hawk air defense missile? Where is our anti-aircraft artillery? Why didn't it open?" asked Rafsanjani.

"Report that our Hawk air defense missile radar has discovered these targets, but they are unable to track the targets at all, and they are even more unable to shoot down the other side." The staff officer said.

"Why?"

"Because these are ballistic missiles launched by Iraq." The staff officer said that the chairman of the Iranian Operations Committee did not understand these specific tactics at all. It was impossible to intercept the opponent's missiles.

Now Rafsanjani only knows that Tehran has dropped bombs from Iraq, but Tehran's air defense forces have no response.

Their own airport was hit and the fighter plane was shot down. This series of reactions meant that Iraq was definitely preparing for a large-scale operation!

"Send a reconnaissance force immediately to conduct front-line reconnaissance on the battlefield. Iraq is likely to attack us!" Rafsanjani had a premonition in his intuition that the Iraqi air force had completely eliminated its air force, and their army would probably be dispatched later.

Now, since the sky is already Iraqi, he can only send ground personnel to monitor Iraq's actions. It is impossible for Iraq to take Tehran, at least, it will cost them a heavy price!

The Hunter Early Warning Aircraft in the sky was still patrolling and flying. Just now, when the Scud missile flew past, the air defense radars arranged by the Iranians on the periphery of Tehran were searched by the Hunter Early Warning Aircraft, and the data was sent back to the rear.

Kill those air defense radars and air defense missiles! After having obtained air supremacy over Tehran, the second battle of the Iraqi Air Force finally began.

The second batch of aircraft that took off from the rear, a squadron of F-20 fighter jets carried anti-radiation missiles imported from the United States, which were specifically modified for the radar of the Hawk air defense missiles equipped by Iran. At the same time, the two squadrons of Su-25 front-line attack aircraft also began their first military operation since entering the Iraqi Air Force.

The opponent's ballistic missile was not intercepted just now, causing the airfield to be bombed. Now, he is still trying his best to rescue him, which makes the Iranian air defense forces lose face. Their radar is spinning at full speed. If Iraqi planes dare to come, they will definitely shoot down Iraqi planes!

According to data obtained from early warning aircraft, two F-20 fighters flew to an air defense missile position ten kilometers south of Tehran city...Mockingbird anti-radiation missile, as a successful anti-radiation missile of the United States, was exported to many countries, especially last year, this anti-radiation missile had been suspended. After the United States began to equip the newer AGM-88 "Ham" anti-radiation missile, the export restrictions of this old-fashioned anti-radiation missile began to be reduced. A few months ago, with the accessories of the F-20 fighter, this batch of anti-radiation missiles were also exported to Iraq.

Using this missile to deal with the "Hawke" air defense missile is simply a breeze.

The Hawke air defense missile is the best medium-range surface-to-air missile in the United States, which can strike targets such as medium and low altitude supersonic aircraft, helicopters, drones, cruise missiles. The triple missile is deployed on the trailer launcher, with a maximum speed of Mach 2.7, a maximum range of 45 kilometers, a minimum range of 1.5 kilometers, a high firing height of 60 to 18,000 meters, and a maneuver overload of 15g. The missile company is usually used as the maximum combat unit, including a pulse capture radar for target surveillance, a high-power illumination radar for target tracking, a command post with a control platform, a set of mkxii enemy-me recognition question and answer systems and three sets of triple launch devices.

In history, this kind of air defense missile once caused great damage to the Iraqi Air Force and shot down more than 40 Iraqi fighter jets. However, in the later stage, the United States and the Soviet Union secretly provided Iraq with a series of electronic jamming weapons, making the power of the Iranian "Hawk" missile no longer possible.

Now, the Iraqi Air Force's way of dealing with the Hawk missile is not simply electronic interference, but directly eliminated!

Because in the future, Iraq will airborne its own troops. If the Iranian air defense firepower is retained, it will be a great threat to the aircraft-landing troops.

The radar of the Hawk missile was spinning constantly, and the soldiers of the Iranian air defense forces in the command post were closely watching the sky they were guarding. Although the air force had failed, they would definitely guard their own sky! rq
