Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 26 Troubled Moments

"I heard that you fought against the Indian Su-30?"

"After several laps at low altitude, the power of the Su-30 is very strong. If it weren't for that plane's full R27, the fighting ability must be stronger."

"Is there any chance that you can shoot it down with the Thunderbolt?"

"Of course there is a chance at close range. If there is a helmet sight or photoelectric radar, plus some effective tactics, there will be a chance. But the current Thunder is not so perfect." The colonel said, it seems that the Thunder is relatively low There are some dissatisfaction with the air-to-air electronics configuration.Song Ning knew very well that the 26th Squadron was equipped with the first batch of Raiden fighters assembled by Pakistan itself, using a shrunken version of legal avionics. Too much money to install the necessary air combat equipment, and the aircraft is currently neither capable of engaging long-range air targets nor attacking ground targets with precision-guided weapons.

"I believe that there will be medium-range bombs. There may be optical radar and so on." Song Ning comforted him. In general, only fighting bombs and ordinary bombs are carried for lift-off operations.

"The J-10 you brought is a good aircraft. I have flown the A-type before, and it does not have a phased array radar. It can probably compete with the F16C."

"Forget it, those two planes are giving me a headache right now."

A walkie-talkie in Song Ning's waist rang. He picked up the walkie-talkie and was about to speak. Colonel Sammy, standing aside, didn't intend to leave. He seemed to have something to say.

"Boss, a new domestic order has arrived, asking you to immediately drive the unarmed J-10B aircraft to Peshawar and hand it over to the Pakistani 37th Tactical Training Wing. The entire delegation will evacuate to the Northern Air Force Command to receive further training. Order." Xiang Xiaohui, the correspondent of the delegation, said that after the early morning war, he had been waiting on the delegation's special plane for new domestic orders, and had been waiting for more than ten hours.

"Did you mention when you will return to China?" Song Ning asked loudly. He knew that Sami could not understand Chinese, so he was not afraid of him eavesdropping.

"No, the superior hopes that we will continue to stay on the front line to collect combat information."

"Okay, you tell Lao Zhou to contact the Pakistani command post immediately to arrange a takeoff time, so that Zhao Lin can gather people together, prepare for takeoff and fill up the fuel; also, all the missiles on the wings must be removed. We can’t fly in the combat zone with bombs, they are all loaded into the transport plane and taken away, I will come right away.”

"clear."

Song Ning turned off the call switch and turned to look at Colonel Sami.

"Colonel, don't go around this detour. I know what you are thinking. I can't let you test the flight today. We will transfer to Peshawar immediately, and the aircraft will be handed over to the 37th Wing."

"However, according to the agreement between our two countries ... we can test it at any time."

"Colonel, it's the stage of war. These two planes are still sprayed with the logo of the People's Liberation Army Air Force. I can't take this risk and let you fly such a plane into the air. If something goes wrong, it's a political issue. I'm going to a court-martial." of."

"Then what are you going to do? Let the 37th Wing take over the new planes that were originally given to our wing?"

"I don't know, you can ask your superiors."

Song Ning said and left the slope to go to the airport, leaving Colonel Sami behind.The colonel is a difficult character, Song Ning doesn't want to talk to him too much.

"You can't do this. The 37th Wing is just a training wing. They usually fly the J-7P. They can't use advanced aircraft to go into combat..."

"Why don't you keep saying this to your Air Staff? It must be your government's intention to let the 37th Wing receive the aircraft. I have to make sure that my mission is completed accurately."

"I know what you mean, but..."

The sharp air raid siren interrupted the colonel's words, and then there was a low roar of engines in the distance. The two immediately stood still and carefully distinguished the type of air raid.After a while, a whistling sound was vaguely heard in the clouds.

"Colonel, what is that sound?"

"It's not the sound of an IAF aircraft, it's... some kind of ramjet-powered... drone, or..."

Now the sound could be heard dropping in height, and Song Ning even wondered if its target would be the dirt slope under his feet.

At the moment when the two were still confused, a huge Brahmos missile whizzed past them. It could be seen that the missile was turning close to the ground, and it flew towards the concrete aircraft fort at the end of the runway.

"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and the two people on the slope had no time to lie down, and they watched the No. 500 aircraft fort [-] meters away being blown to pieces.

Song Ning didn't speak, he ran forward quickly, he knew that the two planes were still in the fort at the back, but he wasn't sure if there were any casualties among his own personnel, this was what he was most worried about now; Waves of attacks would come at any time, but he didn't have time to think about the danger, so he had to check the situation.

It took Song Ning a few minutes to run to the burning ruins. He slowed down a little, and many people in the base were running around in front of him. Bafang's fire engine had just arrived, and was about to lean towards a burning wreckage. An out-of-model aircraft was spraying water, and several people were pulling out those who could still walk from the nearby rubble piles. The Kalmar base was in chaos.The scorching hot air that hit his face made Song Ning dare not get too close. He walked around a large circle before reaching a concrete aircraft fort at the back. Quickly inspect the aircraft.

"Is there something wrong?" Song Ning shouted, he found that Zhou Guoqing, the mechanic who was climbing on the ladder, was still immersed in his work, without any response, probably his ears were deafened by the explosion just now.Correspondent Xiang Xiaohui stumbled in from outside.

"Boss, you're finally here,"

"How's the situation, are we injured?"

"Most of the people are here and there are no injuries. Only Zhao Lin was standing outside just now. His leg was hit by shrapnel and he was sent to the hospital by Pakistani vehicles. I asked the translator Xiao Li to go with him. There will be news anytime."

"How is he hurt?"

"I've seen it, it's not serious, but it's definitely not going to fly."

"Damn it, it's him. How can I transfer the plane away?"

"Should I notify the country first?"

"There is no time. India's bombing will come at any time. Obviously, their target is these aircraft forts."
