Under this sea conditions, the flight quality of the early warning aircraft with a large plate is even more difficult to accept, especially the danger of landing. Moreover, the radar of the Tomcat fighter itself is also quite powerful. Therefore, the wing captain Colonel Ted only ejected two Tomcat fighter jets. 8 novel`

It would be easier to use two powerful Tomcat fighters to monitor a slow Tu-95 reconnaissance aircraft of the Soviets. Moreover, if the navy boys had some other small moves, it would be within the range that Ted and others could accept.

The most powerful force of the aircraft carrier formation is carrier-based aircraft! Both flying Tomcat fighter jets are air-optimized.

The iconic weapon of the Tomcat fighter is the Immortal Missile! This large missile, which is 396 meters long and 38o mm in diameter, weighs half a ton! It has a conventional aerodynamic layout, close to the center of the missile body, and extends to the tail of the missile. Behind these four wing surfaces are four rectangular control surfaces, with a range of more than 100 kilometers!

However, because this missile is too bulky, if it is mounted on long-range interceptors and each fighter is equipped with six Immortal missiles, it will seriously reduce the maneuverability of the Tomcat fighter. Moreover, if the missile is not fired during the mission, two expensive Immortal missiles must be thrown away when returning to the aircraft carrier, because the Tomcat fighter can only carry up to four Immortal missiles to land on the aircraft carrier.

Therefore, the Tomcat fighter jets will not be majestic and full of Immortal Birds. The two Tomcat fighter jets now only carry two Immortal Bird missiles, plus two Sparrow missiles and two Rattlesnake missiles.`

At this time, the two fighter jets ejected from the aircraft carrier, the motive at the tail was opened, the wing swept back, and began to sprint quickly, and the long-range interception mission!

At this time, a highlight was still displayed on the radar at a height of hundreds of kilometers. This highlight was constantly heading towards the exercise area of ​​the US aircraft carrier.

During the Cold War, this kind of confrontation was too common. During the exercises between the two countries, the other side often came to harass them. For example, when the Soviet Navy was exercising in the Baltic Sea, the Soviet Navy's frigates had to use the hull to squeeze the hull to prevent American warships from getting too close.

At this time, on the two Tomcat fighters, the pilots were flying in accordance with the target directions from the ground radar station. In the cockpit behind the Tomcat fighter, the weapon operator was operating in an orderly manner.

Because the shooting of the Immortal Missile is too cumbersome, in order to give the pilots energy to focus on air combat, the Tomcat fighter jets are all two-seat systems, with a weapon operator in the rear cabin, which is specially used to control the powerful AG-9 radar and Immortal Missile System.

Turn on the radar, scan the front airspace with pds mode, and at the same time, power up the Immortal Missile to prepare for the pre-fire. If you really need to shoot, you won’t be in a hurry.`

Highlights soon appeared on the radar screen.

Like the cyclone A radar, the weight of the ag-9 radar reaches half a ton, but this half ton is the full weight of the entire radar system. Radders such as the cyclone-a are net weight, not including the weight of the heat dissipation system, etc. Moreover, the weight is not proportional to performance. The flat-panel gap antenna of the ag-9 radar can allow the radar beam to radiate better, reduce side lobes, increase scanning frequency, and improve efficiency. At the same time, a large number of solid components are used in the receiver, including crystal filters and low-noise parameter amplifiers, and flexible high-capacity computers.

ag-9 is a completely digital computer. Many computer fans know this kind of computer, which is the 8-bit digital processor of inte18o8o! This thing sounds very backward now, but at that time, this processor was simply invincible. The radar processing system written in assembly language allows the radar to process signals in various ways, giving the ag-9 seven modes!

Comparing the most critical parameters, the maximum power of this radar is only 8 kilowatts, which can achieve such powerful performance. The peak power of the cyclone-a radar is 6 kilowatts! The power is large, but it is dissipated in the form of heat, and there is not much effective energy used on the radar beam.

At this time, with the full power of the radar, in PDS mode, the maximum distance of the ag-9 radar to large targets such as strategic bombers is 30 kilometers. At this time, aimed at the scanning airspace, the radar quickly captured the large reconnaissance aircraft that was heading towards its own side to reconnaissance.

"The target is now at twelve o'clock, with a distance of about 300 kilometers." said the weapon operator in the rear cabin.

The pds mode is pulse Doppler search, which means that this is a search state that works in pulse mode and uses the Doppler effect at the same time. At this time, it is like a large flashlight, used to see if there is a target in the airspace 65 degrees ahead. That's all, except for obtaining target orientation information, there are no height, degree, and various other parameters, and it is impossible to guide the missile to attack.

However, this mode has the farthest detection distance, and can appear three hundred kilometers away for a large target of a strategic bomber such as Tu-95 and B-52. Therefore, the PDS mode is mainly used to track the road and is a mode often used by Tomcat fighters during combat cruise.

After continuing to track stably for a few seconds, the weapon operator in the rear cabin continued to report: "Prepare to transfer to pdstt mode."

pdstt, wears a condom on pds, which means continuous tracking. The working mode of the radar is still in pulse Doppler mode, but it will change the scanning method and select one from the intercepted target according to the instructions of the operator to enter continuous tracking.

At this time, the radar antenna is in a fixed state, and all radar beams radiate towards the distant target, no longer wasting the beam into other airspace in vain, just like a flashlight adding a focused lens, turning the flashlight into a laser.

Stare at the target and prepare to fire!

As the radar beam continues to radiate and returns at the same time, the target's parameter information is fully presented on the radar screen through the fire control system.

"The distance is 200, the height is 16,000, and the degree is 800." The weapon operator in the rear cabin continued to report.

Since the target information is completely intercepted at this time, it can fully support the fire control system to fire the Aim-54 missile. The tracking distance of this PDSTT is the farthest combat distance of the AG-9/Aim-54 system, and the targets that reflect the radar signal are obvious enough, such as the tracking distance of the Tu-95 and B-52, and the tracking distance of the PDSTT exceeds 200 kilometers; if the opponent is a fighter, such as the MiG-25 target, the tracking distance can also reach 150 kilometers, which is exactly the longest distance of the Immortal Missile.

If this system is installed on the MiG-25 fighter, Andre would be so excited that he couldn't sleep.

At this time, when he heard the report of the pilot in the rear cabin, George in the front cabin was a little puzzled, the altitude was 16,000? According to the data from his side, if the Tu-95 came, this kind of aircraft would be a propeller-type aircraft! In previous reconnaissances, almost no such aircraft was flying at a high altitude of over 12,000! Now, the altitude of the other side is 16,000, which is a bit strange?

"The height is 18,000, and the degree is 900." The weapon operator in the rear cabin continued to report. At this time, both of them were filled with anxiety. Damn it, the one who came was probably not Tu-95!
