Thunder Strikes Back

Chapter 46 Fierce Battle

Uhak had no choice but to accept the order of the major general, and chased after the two MiG-2Bs. He checked the fuel condition carefully, and found that the auxiliary fuel tank was exhausted, so he switched the fuel switch to the wing fuel tank, and then threw away the auxiliary fuel tank.The condition of the wingman was slightly better, and there were several hundred liters of fuel left in the auxiliary fuel tank.

"Griffin, listen, take their right flank, turn on the radar and drive them to my side." Sammy began to direct the overall situation ambitiously.

"Griffin understands, but they are loaded with weapons. It is best not to show off without medium-range ammunition." Uhak warned his old superior out of good intentions. Although Sami has never been liked, he is still The most valuable top pilot of the Pakistan Air Force.

"Thank you for reminding me that the Indian Air Force has only one fighter that can make me a little worried, and it's not these MiG-29s."

Twenty kilometers away, Captain Roll began to be in a dilemma. After turning to the F20 in front of him, the battlefield information was close to zero for him. This was a bad result of his deep penetration into the enemy's territory.Now he only knows that there is a radiation source in the northwest that has never been interrupted. It must be an early warning aircraft. In this way, other Pakistani fighter jets can find him even without using radar. Therefore, it is not feasible to confirm the position of the enemy aircraft through the radiation source. At present How many enemy planes are there in other directions, and where are they?He didn't even know, the only thing he knew was that it would be bad luck to go back the same way, because the No. 16 wingman was shot down in the rear, which shows that the enemy's conspiracy is to cut off the retreat.Now Rolle felt the only way was to call for backup.

"Call headquarters, I need lion support."

"Trident leader, we can't see you now."

"I'm 150 kilometers west of Halwara, and you'll see me soon. There are quite a few enemy planes chasing me."

"Two fighter jets from Squadron 31 are on duty and can take off immediately. You can approach us."

It is hard for the captain to imagine that the anti-air security facilities in Punjab are so weak. The small anti-radiation radar dropped by the F16 caused the ground navigation and anti-aircraft fire to be completely out of control. He is now counting on the Su-31MKI of the 30 Lion Squadron to be able to respond in time Take to the sky and use phased array radar to search this dangerous airspace.There has always been a rumor among Indian pilots - don't count on AWACS, it will definitely not be there when you need it.

At 4 o'clock, the F16's radar search quickly responded to Rolle's RWS. It seemed that the enemy had struck back.Although Luo Er knew very well that there was no medium-range bomb on the F16, but because he couldn't measure the distance of the enemy plane, this made him feel really uncertain.He could have flown south for a while, throwing off the bandit, and turning east, but it seemed too late to do that.The fuel warning light also came on at this time, the captain made a wrong decision, threw away the auxiliary fuel tank and turned eastward, and flew towards Sami's formation in a daze.

Sami has fully grasped this new trend through the information transmitted through the data link. He knows that the opportunity is coming. The enemy will certainly be wary of his direction, but after all, he has no other choice.

"Black spider leader, the enemy plane is passing in front of you, I suggest you slow down and don't fall in front of him."

Sami ignored the reminder from the early warning aircraft, the target location was clear, and he knew what to do.If there is a medium-range bomb, you can fire now, but if you don't have it, you can only spend more trouble.

"Abbas, climb to a high altitude to prevent them from escaping by climbing. The rest of the planes followed me and cut to the inside of the enemy plane's turn. Keep your eyes brighter, and don't let them see us first." The colonel said, still offering sacrifices A magic weapon for a sneak attack.

In the remote Halwara Airport in India, two Su-2MKIs scrambled into the air and immediately accelerated to the west. At the same time, they turned on the radar to search due west. The pilot was startled by the radar display. 30 kilometers away, many enemy planes were flying Outflank 120 MiG-2s from several directions.The Su-29 pilot immediately reported the news to the ground command, but it was already a bit late, and the two MiG-30s had already fallen into a one-sided fight with the three Thunderbolts in the dominant position, and both fell into a passive position.

As soon as the Su-30 took off, Sami already knew that they were in the east, but the colonel didn't care much about the surrounding situation when he attacked, especially since these enemy planes were far away and there was no threat. There will be a conclusion.He is now biting the enemy's lead plane tightly, forcing him to disperse with his wingman. As expected, the MiG-1 tried to use common sense to escape the pursuit, but fortunately, Abbas was waiting for him in a higher airspace.

Sammy lost his wingman to his two wingmen to pursue, because that wingman didn't look tough enough, and kept swinging from side to side in vain. This is the most taboo action in air combat, and every extra movement in air combat means Altitude or speed loss, so good pilots will never move.The performance of the MiG lead plane was much better. After he was bitten, he was pulled up almost vertically, and he was always floating above the colonel's glass canopy. Scanning the area above the upper limit, on the HUD, the speed vector mark was thrown to the bottom of the HUD, both planes were trying to climb, and the instant G value was close to 2.

"Abbas stopped him."

Sammy doesn't know where Abbas is now, and he doesn't have time to look down at the HDD. In principle, he should be at the 6 o'clock direction and can reach the front of the MiG-29.The colonel was impressed by the maneuverability of this enemy plane carrying two R2s.He was now worried that the plane would slip through his fingers.

Abbas' Thunder took up a favorable head-on position at this time. He was condescending, and firmly caught the top of the somersault with the radar aperture. The MiG-29, which was slowing down, decisively launched two PL2E missiles.But the tenacious pilot of the enemy plane was very focused. He must have seen the flames of the missiles. He leveled the plane with a roll and quickly began to circle and dive. Sammy saw two missiles in a white smoke of tracers Flying towards him like a headless fly, he had to turn sharply to one side. This 5G maneuver made him almost lose his target.Watching the two missiles fly away from him, Sami aimed the nose at the enemy plane again, and the radar quickly caught the target, but this MiG-2 has already accelerated its speed to an astonishing 9 degrees by virtue of a little time difference. kilometers per hour.The Indian pilot wasted hardly a second on unnecessary maneuvers. While pushing down the nose with all his strength, he turned on the afterburner, released several sets of chaff at the same time, and then fired 2 extra rounds towards the ground. R29 looks extremely sophisticated.Sammy pushed the throttle back to the end. At this time, the enemy plane flexibly rolled 700 degrees to one side, but did not turn. Maybe he flew sideways to observe the battlefield on one side.Sami launched a missile 2 kilometers away, but the enemy pilot had been observing the rear, and he made effective evasive actions in time again, throwing off the old-fashioned missile that was difficult to distinguish between tracer bullets and aircraft tail nozzles.However, this evasion allowed Sami to shorten the distance between the two aircraft to within about 27 kilometer. The colonel simply chose the cannon mode. He knew that it was more flexible to deal with this kind of aircraft, but the cannon mode aimed at by radar might be difficult. He received miraculous effects, especially when he found that the Indian pilot did not maneuver much in the left and right directions.
