Arslan Edward Ibn Zaid is less than 18 years old this year, but he has three hundred hours of experience in jet flight because, at the age of 14, he changed his age and entered the Iraqi Air Force. All of this is because he is a prominent Iraqi family: the son of the Zaid family. Their family has always supported the Saddam Baath Party regime and has good relations with the upper-level government members.

Although Arslan was young, he had a momentum that a newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger. He advocated heroes and his favorite motto was: Attack is the life of the Air Force!

This time, the Iranian plane actually flew into Iraqi airspace in a big way during the day and wanted to bomb the capital Baghdad. This made Arslan, who was on the combat readiness duty mission, feel that the opportunity has come. He immediately ran towards his car: MiG 23bn, codename: Fighter.

Iraq was the second foreign user of MiG-23ms and BN, and received the first batch of 48 aircraft in 1974. Before the Iran-Iraq War, there were a total of 80 MiG-23bns, but like any country with MiG-23s, the Iraqi Air Force was not satisfied with this fighter jet. In the early stages of the Iran-Iraq War, the MiG-23bn suffered huge losses. From September 1980 to May 1981, more than 40 of these aircraft were shot down by Iran's F-14, F-4 and surface-to-air missiles.

All of this is the embarrassment of MiG-23.

The MiG-23 was the first swept-wing fighter in the Soviet Union. Although it adopted this new technology like Panda, due to the backward design and process, the swept-wing technology did not bring about an increase in maneuverability, but instead led to an increase in structural weight, making its performance worse than that of the MiG-21.

However, the MiG-23 still has advantages. Its outstanding performance is that it has a large flat flight speed, reaching 2.35 times the speed of sound at high altitude, a low-altitude meter speed of 1,350 kilometers per hour, and good horizontal acceleration, which is conducive to low-altitude penetration, high-speed interception and attack after breaking. However, its ground-to-ground attack type is a fighter with strong ground attack capabilities due to its large weapon load capacity, long range, high low-altitude penetration speed, and good armor protection.

So, Arslan is familiar with all the advantages and disadvantages of MiG-23, so he is more confident and uses his newly invented tactic: whip attack.

It is not impossible to shoot down enemy aircraft, especially those with panda escorts. One of the methods is to enter the position from a low altitude of 500 meters from behind the Iranian aircraft, before the weapon is launched, use the MiG-23's outstanding acceleration ability to accelerate and climb, and launch air-to-air missiles at the target at the farthest range of the missile. Then, return quickly.

This is not the first time Arslan disobeys. Every time the base commander is furious, but the slap is raised high and gently lowered. He believes that as long as he enters the war zone, the base will immediately guide himself by radar.

When Arslan ran from the situation room to the plane, Captain Omar Koben, the wingman pilot with him, knew that the situation was not good, but he did not choose to disobey the bold pilot. He climbed up step by step with his own efforts, or obediently obediently.

However, when a single machine fights against a group of machines, Arslan's situation is not so optimistic. Apart from praying for Arslan, Omar can only wait quietly.

Arslan fearlessly stepped into the familiar cockpit. The ground crew took off without knowing that they were disobeying their orders, so they came up to check for him whether the oxygen mask and the canopy cover were in place accurately. Then, they moved the ladder on the plane.

Arslan methodically turned on various switches at once, and the familiar roar finally came.

After the ground crew saw that the engine flame was normal, they gave Alslan a thumbs up.

At this time, no abnormalities were found on the base tower.

Arslan released the brakes and the MiG-23 began to slowly slide towards the runway.

Allah, what do he want to do? The duty staff in the tower immediately discovered an abnormality on the apron.

"Flying Tiger, Flying Tiger, turn off the phone and standby, turn off the phone and standby." The tower immediately called out. Flying Tiger is the code name of Arslan.

"Blue sky, blue sky, flying tiger requests takeoff." Arslan shouted on the radio.

Suddenly, there was a sigh in the tower. Colonel Tasker, who was on duty, immediately snatched the radio and said, "Arslan, stop me quickly. If you dare to take off, I will shoot you."

Then, Tasker saw that the tail flame of the young boy on the runway turned pale blue, and he turned on the afterburner!

"As for orders, take off immediately, Colonel." Arslan said solemnly.

"Damn it!"

Arslan had already aimed at the runway. He looked at the missiles mounted on both wings, which were two P-60 (aa-8) short-range air-to-air missiles. In addition to those two, there were two P-23t (aa-7) medium-range air-to-air missiles under the air intake, which used radio command medium guidance and passive infrared terminal guidance. Although it was called medium-range air-to-air missiles, the range was only 15 kilometers and the guidance accuracy was not high, it was enough for a sneak attack from the rear.

Due to the variable sweep wing, there should not be more hangers under the wing, otherwise the missile will rub on the fuselage when the large sweep angle sprints.

It's time to let these missiles exert their power! Arslan pushed the throttle rod to its maximum and turned on the afterburner.

Suddenly, a violent sense of pushing back came, and Arslan stood against the seat, watching the scenery on both sides get faster and faster.

In order to obtain maximum lift, the wing was fixed at a minimum value of 18 degrees.

After glanced at the spacecraft, it had reached 300, and he pulled up the joystick.

The whipper raised his high head and pierced the sky.

"The flying tiger has taken off and is ready to sail south at a low altitude. Please guide me to the correct interception point." Arslan said.

"You kid, come back quickly, otherwise I can't protect you and have to report it to my superiors." Tuske said anxiously. It's so unlucky. It was his own duty today, but there was such a mess. Who arranged for this kid to be on duty today? In a hurry, he didn't have time to say any code name, and he really wanted to scold him!

"The flying tiger has already aimed at the course 2-1-1, and is preparing to intercept the low-altitude large meter speed." Arslan said leisurely in the radio.

At this moment, another excited voice was heard: "Allah is here, this is the fighter!"

The light spots on the radar suddenly became faster.

This guy actually wanted to turn on the afterburner and fly at supersonic speeds? Tasker felt dizzy.

"Supersonic flights are not allowed at low altitudes. I will guide you immediately. Adjust the course to 2-1-2 according to the cruise speed of Mach 0.8. After twenty minutes, I will encounter a panda." In order to avoid this guy from harming the people on the ground, Tuske finally surrendered.

"Tail 2-1-1 is right. I am not intercepting the front, but I am going around behind the panda's butt, so I expect to have three more minutes to contact and twenty-three minutes to contact." Arslan had already calculated the time.

You know, what else do you want me to guide you? Tuske said: "Catch the Air Force Command and inform Lieutenant Arslan of his anti-order behavior.

ps: Thanks to the "Cang Ye Feilong" for the reward!
