False and real, real and false, is the real way to use troops. His Excellency Qu Sai began to perform the first step with his fists and legs.

Scud missiles did not use cluster warheads. Although that can completely destroy the airport, it will cause huge disasters to the airborne of their own personnel. They just use ordinary high-explosive warheads. However, 860 kg of explosives, 150 meters The killing radius is already considered astonishingly powerful.

In terms of tactical time, they are very closely connected, because the range is not enough, so they can only advance until they secretly pass through the Iranian plateau. The fuel is ready, and the test is done in advance, just waiting for the final setting of launch parameters, and entering the irreversible process of launch.

After receiving the target data sent back by the early warning aircraft, this Iraqi killer began its final countdown.

At the same time, the battle in the sky began without the Iranians knowing.

The Phantom 4000 was in the low altitude, receiving the command of the pre-warning aircraft, approaching and approaching its target from the west side of two Iranian F-14 Tomcat fighter jets.

The Mirage 4000 fighter has turned on the afterburner, and the two F404 engines have exploded with powerful thrust, pushing the fighter to quickly approach the target.

Although Reyer hadn't turned on the radar screen at this time, through the early warning plane, he kept hearing the notifications from the personnel on the early warning plane, knowing the position and distance from the Iranian fighter plane.

Finally, we arrived at the location of the sneak attack: 25 kilometers away from the Iranian fighter plane at nine o'clock.

At this time, the Iranian Tomcat fighter jets had turned on their radars, and by searching the fan-shaped area in front of them, they found the target notified before takeoff: the Iraqi fleet. However, the notification said that there were two squadrons, but now they only saw one formation.

Regarding this point, Iranian pilots don't have much doubt, they often fly dense formations, so that on the opponent's radar, two planes will become one plane, or even four planes may become one plane.

Unexpectedly, the combat skills of Iraqi pilots have become so skilled, dare to fly dense formation?Although the Iranian Air Force has very few fighters, Iranian pilots still despise those Iraqi pilots with poor flying qualities.

"Prepare to launch a medium-range bomb." The Iranian lead pilot said, and the radar operator in the back cabin began to get busy.

At this moment, the radar operator in the back cabin was surprised to find that the formation of Iraqi fighter planes suddenly started to turn, and then disappeared from his radar screen, and the other party turned into the blind spot of the Doppler radar. .

Is the opponent's luck too good, or does the opponent already know exactly where his side is?Although in combat, it is a common method for pilots to filter out the Doppler radar processing circuit as clutter by turning to be perpendicular to the opponent's radar beam, but this method requires high skill , not every time can be successful, the Iraqi pilots carried out too easily, right?

For the early warning machine, it is very easy to give such an instruction, as long as you know the directions of both parties.After discovering that the two sides had come into contact with a dangerous distance, the hunting fan early warning machine notified the information in time.

"Turn to 2-1-1 and search for the target again." The Iranian pilot didn't have much time to think about these issues, as long as he continued to turn, he could still find the opponent.

At this time, suddenly, a sharp alarm sound came from the earphone: You have been locked!

At this time, the radar alerts the alert from the alert receiver.

Locked?Until now, he didn't know where the threat came from!

Reyel's Phantom 4000 formation, under the command of the pre-warning aircraft, approached 25 kilometers and then began to climb. At the same time, the distance between them continued to shorten, and they firmly occupied a suitable launch position. At that time, the Iranian fighter just happened to change its orientation in order to find the four Mirage F1s, and exposed the tail to the Iraqi Mirage 4000 fighter. In this way, they did not know where the attack came from!

Seizing the opportunity, Reyer and his wingman each fired two semi-active radar-guided R-530F missiles, the flames flashed under the wings, and the two locked on the same target, heading towards the most powerful Tomcat of the Iranians. , flew over.

In order to ensure that they could hit the target, after launching the missile, Reyer and his wingmen were unable to make large-scale maneuvers, and just waited for the missile to fly forward.

After learning that they were locked by radar, the Iranian pilots knew that they were in big trouble this time, and more importantly, they were actually attacked by surprise!The radar of their Tomcat fighter plane is the best radar in the sky. They only need to scan the sky once to be sure whether the sky is safe or not. But now, they were unexpectedly attacked by the shameful Iraqi fighter plane. It's an insult to the fighter planes, and they didn't receive any warning from the rear radar!

This is the airspace near Tehran. The Iraqi air force has become so powerful without knowing it?

The Iranian pilot immediately made a high-overload maneuver in an attempt to avoid the incoming missile. Although the maneuver of the aircraft will never be comparable to the missile, it is still possible to get rid of it by turning to the appropriate direction at the right time.

It's just that their actions didn't play any role on the Phantom 4000's radar, and they were still firmly watched.

For a fighter plane being tail chased, missiles launched from behind have a high hit rate.

The radar officer in the back cabin of the F-14 fighter kept looking around from his seat, hoping to see the incoming missile, but he couldn't find it.

Finally, when the F-14 fighter was climbing upwards, he finally glanced at the flying missile from the top of the cockpit. Unfortunately, his vision began to blur due to the huge overload.

His physical fitness has always been excellent, but at this juncture, black vision actually occurred!

Although the pilot in the front cabin did not experience blackout, his various escape actions did not save him. The missile flew closer and closer and entered the no-escape zone. Then, two missiles, one of which hit the engine, Another hit the fuselage.

The F-14 fighter jet turned into a fireball in the air.

The Mirage 4000 and the F-14 are two types of heavy-duty air superiority fighters, both of which have powerful interception capabilities and close-range combat capabilities. They are excellent in all aspects. It is a pity that Iran's fighter jets have been disdainful for a long time in the skies of the Middle East. , There is no room for play at all, because Iraq has the command of the pre-warning machine!

Chapter 544 The Air Combat In Progress

The Mirage 4000 took advantage of the pre-warning aircraft and quietly approached the opponent in a direction that was not detected by the Iranian fighter planes. Then, using medium-range bombs, the two planes were killed.

After receiving the battle report ahead, the commander of the Tehran Air Force Base was very angry. The second batch of F-4 fighters and F-5 fighters from Qazvin were about to enter the theater, but the situation was no longer optimistic.

Even the powerful F-14 fighters were killed without any power to fight back. Do these fighters with a difference of one generation have a chance to win?

However, in order to defend the sky of Tehran, they have no choice but to fight bravely!

The Mirage 4000 fleet and the Mirage F1 fleet, under the command of the pre-warning plane, approached the second batch of Iranian fleets.

Among them, the Phantom 4000 Squadron is flying towards the follow-up Iranian F-4 Squadron, while the Phantom F1 Squadron is starting to fly towards the fighter planes flying in the direction of Qazvin in the northwest.

During the flight, they deliberately lowered their altitude to avoid the detection of the opponent's radar.

In addition to the radars of the F-14 fighters, the radars of other fighters equipped by Iran lack the ability to reliably identify low-altitude targets. Therefore, in order to avoid being prematurely discovered by the opponent and enter mid-range air combat, they chose low-altitude assaults.

At this time, the Scud missiles in the rear had completed all launch preparations. Following the commander's order, thick smoke rose from the entire launch position.

Scud missiles dragged their tongues of flame, flew into the sky, and flew towards the predetermined target [-] kilometers away.

After the launch was completed, the launch car immediately began to put away, and drove away from the launch site nervously and orderly, and soon there was no one there.

Only those Scud missiles flying across the sky showed that they had been here.

Rafsanjani had just participated in the military parade in the square and returned to the Ministry of National Defense when he received a report that the Iraqi Air Force dispatched fighter planes to attack Tehran!

At the same time, Tehran's air defense police began to sound throughout the city. Just after Iran had just demonstrated its force, Iraq was so shameless.

Rafsanjani was startled when he heard the news. He originally thought that there would be no large-scale operations in Iraq until next spring. This time, Iraq's attack on Tehran was a small-scale harassment or a large-scale attack. Prelude to attack?

The military parade on the square has almost all the troops stationed in Tehran. Can these troops withstand the Iraqi attack?

However, intuitively, Rafsanjani feels that the possibility of Iraq's attack is unlikely, and it is very likely that it is just harassment by the other party.

The Air Force has already taken off a fighter plane to intercept it. Rafsanjani is in the underground bunker of the Ministry of Defense, waiting for the news ahead.

He didn't make him wait long before he was rewarded. Two F-14 Tomcat fighters were hit by missiles flying from the side before they got close to the air combat range. Both fighters were shot down!

These two fighter planes are among the few combat Tomcats carefully maintained by Iranian ground crews, and the pilots are also the most elite pilots in the Iranian Air Force, so it is impossible for pilots to make mistakes , Then, it can only show that the combat effectiveness of the Iraqi Air Force has reached a very high level!

Rafsanjani was starting to feel bad.

Now in the war with Iraq, Iran has almost completely lost the wind, because Iran has lost its oil fields, its economic income has dropped sharply, Iran has made enemies on all sides, and it has lost its source of weapons and equipment. Apart from its large population, Iran has no other advantages. .

The final contest still has to be settled on the ground!Thinking of the fanatical crowd in the square during the daytime military parade, Rafsanjani summoned up his confidence again and ordered to strengthen the defense. In addition to dispatching fighter planes, the anti-aircraft missiles and anti-aircraft artillery near Tehran are also on standby and ready at any time. Launch a fierce counterattack to the Iraqi aircraft that invaded Tehran's airspace!

Tehran does not come and go freely by Iraqi planes!

The F-4 formation in the sky was searching the sky for the battle just now, but found nothing.
