Welcome to:.      In terms of performance, the r-27 Baiyang medium-range air-to-air missile, which was only in service in 1982, has far better performance than the Super Matra 530 missile and the US Sparrow missile. Unfortunately, due to the backwardness of the carrier aircraft, this missile has been launched by the other party before it can launch its own missile.

At this time, the distance between the two sides had already flown to 40 kilometers, almost at the extreme range of Super Matra. If the Soviet MiG aircraft turned and flew away, it was likely that the missile would not be able to reach it. However, as long as the other party did not turn and flew away, the distance between them would be close during such oncoming flight.

Reyer, who has rich combat experience, began to maintain a certain course and speed after launching the missiles on the carrier aircraft, and provided radar signals to the missiles he launched to meet the needs of such missiles under semi-active radar guidance.

The MiG-29 fighter was equipped with an omnidirectional siren-3 radar alarm receiver. After the sound of the radar alarm receiver came from the headphones, the MiG-29 pilot was completely speechless. He had already judged that in this case, even if the other party discovered him, they could not lock themselves at all. For example, the most advanced Soviet fighter he was flying was like this, and it would be nice to exchange the positions of both sides. His radar would be able to detect the other party.

He originally thought that he would use his advantage of hiding in the low altitude of the mountainous areas to launch missiles, kill the other party quietly, and then immediately slip back from the mountainous areas quietly.

Who knew that the other party launched a missile!

In air combat, whoever launches the missile first means who gains an absolute advantage, because in order to avoid being shot down, the other party can only choose to fly maneuverably.

"Release the interference of the platinum bar and reduce the altitude." The MiG-29's long-range pilot firmly used this method in an instant. He didn't believe that the opponent's fighter jet aircraft's on-board radar could find himself in complex ground clutter. Now, he may be flying a little higher, so he lowered his altitude!

The MiG-29's long-plane pilot made the right way in crisis, because if he used serpentine maneuver as usual, the way to temporarily disappear on the opponent's radar screen might not necessarily work. As early as when the Iraqi Air Force used Phantom F1, it cracked this trick through the data link.

Although at a low altitude, the radar of the Iraqi Phantom 4000 fighter can still filter them out from the ground clutter, but if the opponent lowers to a very low altitude, the Phantom 4000 radar may still be unlocked. For example, if the opponent drills into the valley, the electromagnetic signal propagating straight lines is completely blocked by the peaks on both sides!

However, to get into the valley, it requires superb technology. The old-fashioned propeller aircraft is OK. A fast jet is a huge test for pilots.

As a frontline fighter, the MiG-29 fighter did not use the latest telex operating system now, but only had old hydraulic operation. However, the control system is equipped with the more advanced c2y-451 automatic control system, which can be controlled without telex operation on this static and unstable aircraft. (It was not until the MiG-29m that it was replaced with telex operation, so the military industry of the Red Empire Soviet Union was really powerful and perverted). Moreover, due to the reasonable aerodynamic layout and high-power engine, this fighter is very flexible.

As the latest Soviet fighter jets that had just entered service for two years, those who could fly such aircraft were the elites among the pilots in the Soviet Air Force. This is the case with these two MiG-29 pilots. They pushed the operating rods and lowered the altitude again. The anti-collision lights on the instrument panel had already begun to illuminate. They were still fearless and looked at the undulating mountains outside the cabin.

Although ergonomics were not adopted, the MiG-29 bubble cockpit still brought unprecedented openness to Soviet pilots. They used their skillful skills to shuttle through the mountains and rivers.

The radar alarm receiver in the headphones is still ringing. Until now, the Soviet pilots have known that the latest textbook information they received is wrong. In this case, the other party's airborne radar can lock itself!

This shows that their airborne radar has a very powerful ability to process data from ground clutter! You should know that what they are facing is not the powerful US Air Force, but is just the second-rate Iraqi Air Force at most!

Nowadays, Soviet pilots have no time to scold the intelligence collectors. What they need now is how to avoid the two damn missiles shot at them. It doesn't matter if they are shot down. They are shot down by the backward Iraqi Air Force. They are a little embarrassed.

What to do now? Pull it up? I'm afraid there is no time left. Pull it up now will give the opponent's fighter jets a stronger radar reflection signal, giving them a better chance to shoot down themselves.

Let's fight! The pilot of the MiG-29's long aircraft saw the valley in front, and pressed the operating rod downward. This was the last valley. After drilling out, he arrived at the plains.

Come on! The pilot of the MiG-29 got in with fearless spirit.

His eyes were staring at the front, and the operating rod in his hand and the rudder under his feet seemed to be integrated with them, and this was dancing with the god of death! In the valley, their fighter planes, like light swifts, were flying almost against the ground.

Reyer cursed in his heart, and at the same time admired his opponent. In order to avoid the opponent's missiles and use the terrain, they actually lowered to that height! Then, due to the blockage of the mountain, he lost the trace of the opponent, and the Super Matra 530 missile he launched was also freed from locking because of the loss of his target.

After losing the target, the two missiles flew for more than ten seconds and chose to self-destruct in the air. This attack failed.

Reyer looked at the radar screen with the afterglow of his eyes vigilantly. When the other party finally disappeared, the distance between the two sides had reached twenty kilometers. At this distance, for a fast-flying fighter, it would soon enter the visual range.

The pilots of the MiG-29 were concentrating on fighting the God of Death from the valley, and they were relieved until the sound inside the radar alarm receiver disappeared.

The series of actions just now consumed a lot of fuel from the MiG-29. If they didn't return now, their fuel would probably not be enough.

This is also the tragedy of frontline fighter jets. The Soviet MiG-29 and Su-27 correspond to the US F-16 and F-15. However, the US highlands matched the heavy F-15s because they were more expensive and they could not have a large amount of equipment, so they chose low-cost fighter jets such as the F-16. The Soviet MiG-29 and Su-27 were due to the Soviet air defense concept.

Migoyang Design Bureau has long designed field front-line fighters, such as the classic MiG-15 and MiG-21, which are almost all small and flexible, but have a short time to stay air and have a short range. The Sukhoi Design Bureau is responsible for the design of national air defense fighters and medium- and long-range ground-support combat aircraft. For example, the Su-15 that shot down the Boeing 727 during the interception mission twice. MiG aircraft are often exported, while the Su-type aircraft are almost all used in China. Since MiG's front-line fighters generally use the front-line airport with poor conditions as bases, perform medium- and short-range air-optimal combat missions, taking into account ground support. Therefore, compared with the Sukhoi fighter models of the same period, MiG fighters are generally light and small, so the range is short. When it comes to the MiG-29, this difference still exists.

The advanced MiG-29 carried 6 air-to-air missiles and a belly secondary fuel tank at the frontline field airport to take off, performing a defense bomber and attack aircraft formations to provide escort missions with a combat radius of 230 kilometers. If only two medium-range and short-range air-to-air missiles are carried out, and at the appropriate speed, the MiG-29's combat radius is only about 600 kilometers, which is called the "airport guardian" by the West.

Now, the pilot of the MiG-29 fighter jet has not yet begun to counterattack, so he has to consider whether he needs to return.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he had already flew out of the mountains!

Just as they relaxed, two Soviet pilots habitually scanned the entire airspace with their eyes and discovered the two highlights in the distance, namely the Iraqis who attacked them!

"Switch to short-range mode and prepare the R-73 short-range missile." The MiG-29's long-range pilot said. Now, since they have discovered the other party, let them taste their own power!

Soviet pilots were very confident that they could defeat any opponent in the sky with this air-to-air missile that could be locked by a helmet scope!

As a cross-era fighter of the Soviet Union, in addition to its advanced aerodynamic layout, the MiG-29 also creatively introduced a new missile locking method. In addition to using radar, it can also use the s-31e2 photodetector and zsh-3um helmet sight.

Soviet engineers were also very creative. The MiG-29's helmet sight is the most distinctive part of the entire fire control system. With the R-73 close-range fighting air-to-air missile, the MiG-29 can occupy an advantageous position in close combat. The "helmet" sight is to use the helmet observation device to determine the target's observation line through the helmet observation device, guiding the radar, EOS and missile infrared seeker to quickly intercept the target. After visually discovering the target, the pilot turns his head to make the observation mark point to the discovered target, and press the input button on the throttle handle. The cockpit is equipped with sensors that measure the rotation of the pilot's head and helmet observation device. After the on-board computer converts the information it inputs, it provides the infrared seeker of the EOS, radar and missile for target indication.

Simply put, you can see wherever you want and wherever you want!
