Just like that, the UFO entered Iran's airspace at a speed exceeding Mach 3 and an altitude of 3 meters!It flies proudly, dodges countless missiles, and never takes any damage!Even a high-altitude and high-speed interceptor still has nothing to do with him!

"Let our large radars and early warning planes in the east monitor this invading enemy together. Have the other two MiG-25s rushed over Bakhtaran?" After giving the order, Qusay also rushed to the national defense Ministry command center.

After learning that the initial interception failed, these personnel on our side were a little discouraged. Qusay knew that there was still a chance now!

After hearing Qusay's order, they finally got busy again.

"Your Excellency Qusay, the UFO flying here is too fast, and the time left for us to intercept it is very short." Air Force Commander Abed said.

"Yes, the speed of this blackbird is very fast, but it is still possible for us to wait for them at the predetermined location and design a good route." Qusay said: "They are here to scout our Bakhtaran area So, let our MiG-25, under guidance, approach each other from the side and shoot down this plane!"

"Yes!"

Most of the people at the scene felt that the UFO was invincible, and the opponent's speed and altitude were both at the limit of the MiG-25. Some even wondered if this UFO was a UFO?Now, Your Excellency Qusay has clearly stated that this flying object is an airplane, and he even gave this flying object a name, Blackbird?

Can the MiG-25 shoot down the opponent?Qu Sai didn't know what to do, but he knew that he had to try it!The advantage of one's own side is that it already knows the destination of the other side. By planning the route, the two sides will appear at the same place at the same time. For example, the NMD experiments conducted by the United States in later generations are all pre-prepared collisions.The time left for the pilots to prepare is also very short, I hope they can hit the ground running!

The second cut of Chapter 6 and Five

"The radar signal has disappeared, and the MiG-25 has flown away." Major Joseph Vida said: "They have nothing to do with us."

This time, in such a close confrontation with the MiG-25, the SR-71, a reconnaissance aircraft, without any weapons, relied on its high altitude and high speed advantage to throw the MiG-25 away.

Hearing that the MiG-25 had flown away, Major Ed Yielding pulled back the throttle stick in his left hand. Just now, unconsciously, he was driving the SR-71 reconnaissance plane, creating a new speed again. For the first time in my career, I drove the Blackbird to 3.5 times the speed of sound. The two engines are very powerful, and the Blackbird is the most powerful fighter!

The reconnaissance plane began to slow down, and the engine, which had been working at full speed, finally began to slow down.

"Adjust the course to 1-3-1, reduce the speed to Mach 2.2, and the altitude is [-]. It's time for us to work." Major Joseph Vida said, in normal investigations, it doesn't matter if the speed and altitude are higher, but this time In addition to using synthetic aperture radar to survey the local landforms and find the exact location where a nuclear explosion may be launched, they also need to monitor whether there is any trace radiation exposure from an underground nuclear explosion in the stratosphere. lower.

At this time, they had already flown into the central part of Yazd, and it was impossible for Iraqi planes to appear in these areas.

"We received radar shots again, and it was still an Iraqi early warning aircraft." Major Joseph Vida said.

The Iraqi early warning plane was far away from them. After the interception failed, they were also flying northward. In addition, the radar scanning distance of the early warning plane was relatively far away. Therefore, the blackbirds have not yet flown out of the hunting ground. Radar scan range.

"Don't worry about it, we have more than ten minutes to get rid of the damned early warning aircraft." Major Ed Yielding said, no matter how powerful the radar of the early warning aircraft is, they will not be equipped with anti-aircraft missiles, and their flying speed will not If it exceeds the speed of sound, the Blackbird will soon leave the pre-warning machine far behind.

They didn't know that there was a huge trap waiting for them ahead.

The black bird, with blue lights all over its body, flew recklessly over Iran's airspace.

Kadim and his wingman had already lowered the altitude to 5000 meters. They had been flying with afterburner non-stop just now, and the fuel was consumed very quickly. His remaining fuel was just enough to return to the base.

Kadem was very depressed. What is that guy with blue light all over his body?At the same time, he also hoped that his companions, the two MiG-25s in the Bakhtaran area, could successfully shoot down the flying object.

Pilot Kazai was very relaxed at this moment. He used to be Reyer's wingman, and he had seen Reyer's bold and aggressive style. He was driving an advanced fighter jet that could fly to Mach 3, and he was used to intercept this kind of attack from high altitude. A UFO flying at high speed is just right!

He already knew that the squadron leader Kadum had already failed. During their head-on interception, because the speed of both sides was too fast, they could not successfully lock on to each other, so they had to intercept each other from the side!

At this time, the newly equipped C3I system played a role again. Compared with the voice guidance, the information transmitted through the LINK4 data link contains more content, and the speed of information transmission is faster, refreshing the distance between one's own side and the other party at any time Waiting for information, so that their volleys are more sure.

In order not to expose themselves, the two MiG-25s did not turn on the radar, they just kept adjusting their positions.

"Climb to 5000 meters." Kazai said to his wingman, and then he pulled his control lever backward, and the fighter plane began to rise.

Although the ceiling of the MiG-25 was limited to 400 meters after it entered service, it has flown to an altitude of more than 9000 meters during the test flight (the maximum record is [-] meters), and its speed has also been Repeatedly broke through Mach [-].

Now, they have risen to 3000 meters. In order to intercept, they still need to continue to climb, because the missiles are mounted under the wings. At high altitude, the plane has begun to show signs of instability.

Kazai is fearless. This is the first time he has driven the MiG-25 to such a height. On the battlefield, all restricted areas can be broken through!

Finally, the early warning aircraft could not detect any trace of the blackbird, and the rest of the work was handed over to a long-range radar station in eastern Iraq. This radar station has also been connected to the Iraqi C3I system, and the handover of command was extremely difficult. smoothly.

On the monitor in the lobby of the Ministry of Defense, the trajectories of the two planes are gradually approaching.

"It was illuminated by an Iraqi ground radar." Major Joseph Vida said, "It's a long-range early warning radar, not a ground-to-air missile fire control radar. The other party should not have deployed an air defense missile here, and it will remain unchanged according to the original plan."

Major Ed Yielding lowered the altitude to 1000 meters, which was already a dangerous altitude, but at this altitude, he could better detect the radiation that might leak from the ground and provide the most favorable evidence for his own side.

The task they performed this time is very important, because they need to determine the exact center of the earthquake in Bakhtaran, they need to use the synthetic aperture radar they carry to draw a detailed map, and at the same time use a high-precision camera to quickly take the following photos, these blackbirds The equipment is the most advanced technology, coupled with the speed of the blackbird, it only takes 6 minutes to take high-resolution photos covering the whole of Italy.In order to avoid the error caused by the forward flight of the aircraft, the reconnaissance camera is installed on the guide rail, and moves backward when taking pictures, so that the camera is stationary relative to the ground.

Although reconnaissance satellites are now widely used, sometimes an early warning machine such as the Blackbird is still needed. For example, reconnaissance satellites cannot collect radioactive residues in the atmosphere.

The two are very confident in the black bird under their crotch.

Major Joseph Vida has already made full preparations. They are about to enter the sky above the Bakhtaran area, and all the reconnaissance equipment will immediately start to work. Their thrilling flight is about to enter the most critical moment.

Although they were still being scanned by that radar signal, Major Joseph Vida didn't pay much attention to it. They are now flying at an altitude of 1000 meters at a speed of Mach [-]. If there are missiles fired from the ground, they have enough time. Get rid of the opponent's missiles.

Blackbird has been hit by countless missiles, but has never touched their side!

Moreover, the failure of the Iraqi MiG-25 fighter jet interception just now gave them greater confidence in their aircraft. They did not know that the record that the Blackbird had always kept would be broken by them.

The opponent actually slowed down!It was a perfect opportunity. At this time, the MiG-25 in the sky had already approached from the west of Bakhtaran, about [-] kilometers away from the black bird, and its speed also accelerated to Mach [-].

Moreover, at this time, the MiG-25 was facing southeast, and the Blackbird was facing north, and the two sides formed an angle of nearly 100 degrees.

Under the wings of the MiG-25, two missiles have been activated.

R-40 missile, is the Soviet Union made by Matus?The 4th Experimental Design Bureau led by Bisnovat (the "Lightning" Machinery Manufacturing Design Bureau of later generations) began to develop a new type of air-to-air missile in February 1962.At the beginning of the design, it was equipped with MiG-2 to intercept the new generation of long-range strategic bomber and SR-25 high-altitude and high-speed reconnaissance aircraft of the United States B-70 (not in active service).

Therefore, the shape of this missile is not different from other air-to-air missiles, but rather resembles the shape of a phoenix missile.Although the canard aerodynamic layout is adopted, the longitudinal plane of the main aircraft is not a canard wing but a rear elastic wing.The trailing edge of the large-swept trapezoidal wing is provided with 4 cāo longitudinal rudder surfaces to control the flight of the missile.

There are two types of seekers for this missile, the infrared-guided type has thicker and blunt warheads, and the semi-active radar-guided type has thinner and sharper warheads.The aerodynamic overheating under high Mach conditions is very severe. Therefore, when designing this missile, many new methods are adopted. For example, it uses high-energy metal fuel, adds a thermal insulation layer to the titanium shell, and a special Freon cooling system, high-temperature ceramics are used in the head of the missile, and the infrared seeker is a high-temperature-resistant optical heat-insulating ceramic.

Because Iraq will face air threats at any time, Iraqi fighter planes will take off with live ammunition at any time and will be thrown into battle at any time. This is absolutely different from the pursuit of security in peacetime.

The Iran-Iraq War has forged a powerful Iraqi war machine.

Iraqi pilots have also trained themselves into a powerful air force during the war. Even if they are flying an old-fashioned MiG-21, they dare to bayonet in the air with any enemy who invades the airspace!

What's more, if you meet your opponent, use the high-altitude and high-speed MiG-25 to intercept the same high-altitude and high-speed SR-71!

The Soviet Union has never successfully intercepted it, because it does not know where the opponent’s destination is, and cannot complete an air ambush, but Iraq is different. Qusay has pre-judged the opponent’s final destination, and at this time, there are Iraqi meters in control. The Ge-25 fighters, everything was very coincidental. Although the first interception failed, they were definitely not discouraged!

"Turn on the radar and prepare to launch missiles," Kazai said.

The powerful Echo A radar finally began to show its existence. At an altitude of more than 2 meters, strong electromagnetic waves filled the calm sky. Here is the place guarded by the Iraqi Air Force!

On the defense system panel in front of Major Joseph Vida, a signal suddenly appeared, and two MiG-25s suddenly appeared sixty kilometers away from him!Moreover, the opponent is flying from the side!

Chapter 6 Four Missiles Beat the Blackbird

The MiG-25's airborne Echo A radar began to scan the airspace in front of it. Immediately, it found the huge aircraft. Then, the onboard computer began calculations to provide launch data for the two missiles under the wings.

"Immediately speed up and turn right." Major Joseph Vida said in the back cabin. The second encounter with the MiG is probably not as accidental as the first time. The opponent must have a purpose!

If they continue to fly forward, the distance between the two sides will continue to close, and this time the opponent is on the side, and the situation is very unfavorable to them.
