Chapter 146 Shooting down EC-121

Andrei seized a loophole in the Americans. In the American mindset, it is now a conflict on Sakhalin Island, and the battle will be limited to the sky above Sakhalin Island.

Childish, you are the ones who have taken the war. How to fight, how big the scale of the fight, where to fight, and how much can you make the decision? Do you think you are the banker?

Of course Andre would not follow the Americans' thinking and chose Itulupu Island. This island with an area of ​​more than 3,000 square kilometers is located along the Pacific coast and has no strategic depth, so the Soviet Union was only a symbolic garrison, and did not actually mobilize the main forces such as the Pacific Fleet. During World War II, the Americans' Pearl Harbor tragedy has not yet gone, and Itulupu Island is not suitable for large-scale garrisons.

Moreover, the front line of the confrontation between the Soviet Union and the West was in the European part, and the equipment and personnel here were not first-class. Even so, on Iturupo Island, the Soviet Union still invested a certain amount of money to repair the deep-water ports and airports here, and once war broke out, the army could be mobilized at any time.

In terms of defense zone division, the islands here are all under the jurisdiction of the Sakhalin Island Defense Zone.

Therefore, Andre was able to arrange surprise troops here with confidence and boldness. The Tu-22 bomber that took off from Sakhalin Island successfully restrained the strength of the US Navy and relied on new tactics to make the Americans urinate. Now, Andre's mission is the most difficult and tempting early warning aircraft in the entire mission, killing the Americans!

With the support of our own early warning aircraft and electronic fighter jets, it was not difficult to find the American early warning aircraft. The main difficulty was how to get close to the other party's early warning aircraft. Therefore, Andre and his wingman first flew at an altitude of 15,000 meters. Imitate the flight characteristics of other fighter jets, so that the other party relaxed their guard, and then climbed up quickly when they found that the other party had sent an interceptor, let the other party's interception be lost.

Who says high-altitude highways are outdated? As long as they are used properly, miracles can be created!

Andre, is the man who created miracles!

At this time, the early warning aircraft was flying south desperately, and at the same time, the Yokota base was taking off the second wave of the fighter jets quickly. Although they were old F-4 fighters, even if they were blocked by the early warning aircraft, they had to save the precious early warning aircraft!

Unfortunately, it was still too late. The ec-121 was just a propeller-type aircraft with a limited maximum speed. At high altitude, there was no concern that this trip would burn out the two MiG-25s of the engine. They were flying at the maximum speed, and the distance between the two sides was approaching quickly.

One hundred kilometers, eighty kilometers, sixty kilometers...

The only thing that poses a threat to the MiG-25 is the Tomcat fighter jet. Unfortunately, the Tomcat fighter jets are now confronting Tu-22 at sea!

Tu-22 did not have escort fighter jets, but did the Americans dare to really attack the bomber fleet? They would not dare to give them the courage. If the bomber is shot down, the war will really begin! Just as the Americans gave the opportunity to allow the troops of the Far East Military Region to land on the island country and completely pacify the island country!

The Americans are in the Far East. The main forces are the Air Force and the Navy, while the strength of the Self-Defense Forces on the way of the islanders is not a little bit worse.

At this time, the F-4 fighter jet taken off at Yokota base was flying quickly towards Andre's MiG-25 attack, but unfortunately it was still too late!

The two MiG-25s in the air, like killers, released their own sharp attack from a height of 30,000 meters!

Under the wings, the flames stalked, and the two missiles on the inside left the pylon. This scene was pleasing to the eye.

The other party had already launched the missile! At this time, the crew members on the ec-121 early warning plane were about to cry. They grabbed the thing next to them tightly and felt the propeller plane rapidly lowering the altitude.

Get to the low altitude and let their radar unlock!

At the same time, the radar antenna on the top continued to release electromagnetic waves, tracking the information of the flying missiles.

Four light spots, four missiles!

What's going on?

According to the Soviet technology, it is quite difficult to filter radar waves reflected on the ground. In fact, even the current ec121 early warning aircraft does not have the ability to filter out complex ground echoes and can only be used on sea surface or flat land. This is also the reason why the Americans are eager to develop e-3.

"The MiG-25 has returned!" a warning officer shouted: "What they shot is not radar-guided missiles, but infrared seekers!"

The Soviets had poor electronic technology and poor radar-guided missiles' performance, so their missile seekers can be interchanged with infrared and radar. Now, since the other party has fired the missile and left, it must be an infrared seeker.

Active radar seeker? Stop kidding, the Soviets' electronic technology will never make this thing out!

"Hurry, put on infrared bait bombs!" the early warning aircraft commander continued to shout.

He didn't know, and everyone didn't know that they made a big mistake, and this mistake sent them to hell!

The infrared bait bombs were constantly released from the rear fuselage of the early warning aircraft, as if the fireworks were blooming in the sky, extremely beautiful.

None of the flying missiles were off the target, and they were still chasing them quickly!

"Boom!" The first missile caught up with the early warning aircraft and a violent explosion occurred at the position of the radar raised on the top.

"Boom!" The second missile flew up and almost caught up with the position where the first missile exploded and continued to explode. During the attack of the second missile, the ec-121 broke from the middle of the fuselage, and in the air, it rolled and fell down like a kite with a broken string!

The two missiles that followed did not find the target and exploded not far away, but now they are no longer needed.

Americans absolutely don’t know that these missiles that were unable to interfere just now were not radar seekers or infrared seekers at all, but anti-radiation missiles!

Andre wanted to provide this kind of special missile, which was specially designed to chase the electromagnetic radiation source! If the Americans turned off the radar, these missiles would lose guidance and become uncontrolled rockets. Unfortunately, the Americans wanted to closely track these flying missiles, and the radar was always in work!

Unfortunately, due to the technology of the Soviet Union's solid rocket engine at this time, this missile has a low range and is less than 40 kilometers long. If there are missiles with a range of more than 200 kilometers in later generations, Andre would not have to take the risk of rushing forward and could snipe the early warning aircraft from a distance.

Success with one blow!
