Babylonian Empire

Why did the sailors around them stop moving all of a sudden?

"Hey, what are you doing?" He glanced at the person next to him.

did not speak.

He followed the eyes of the people next to him, only to realize that, on the surface of the sea in the distance, why was there a flame passing by?

Because of the Islamic Revolution, many of the soldiers on board had been purged, and there were very few experienced American-trained sailors on board, but he was one of them.

what is that?Needless to say, of course it is a missile, idiots, it must be this thing that killed the Babur class.

"Quick, hide!" The sailor shouted loudly, which woke up the people next to him.

Unfortunately, it was too late, the missile had already entered the final stage of snake-like maneuvering. Although the ship being attacked at this time had no way to fight back, it still faithfully executed the pre-designed instructions and entered the Keep turning to avoid the attack.

However, this process was very fast. Before two seconds had passed, the missile plunged into Arwand's stomach and hit the heating boiler.

This is all right, the steam in the boiler, which has been added to a pressure of more than ten atmospheres, began to leak. The huge pressure tore apart the entire boiler room, and the warhead of the missile carried the remaining fuel, causing violent combustion.

The experienced veteran just now had already jumped into the water and was struggling to swim ashore.

In the port, it was already too horrible to look at. The four ships that did not move at all were four shining target ships. Under the attack of C801, they achieved good results of four out of four.

The F-20 fighters in the rear have been protecting the Mirage F1 fighters attacking in front. They are faithfully guarding the sky here.

Suddenly, several bright spots appeared on the radar screen in front of Adnan, and there were four targets on the sea at [-] kilometers away!

Ultra-low altitude, ready to raid from the sea?Stop dreaming!

"Tiger Shark Squadron, prepare to fight," Adnan said on the radio.

The APG-67 radar has already shown its advanced side. At this distance, even the radar of the Phantom F1 will regard the opponent as an aircraft, because the opponent is flying in a dense formation. However, the APG-67 His piercing eyes have already distinguished them.

Want to sneak attack?There is a price to pay!

Chapter 357 is the same root

Four F-5 Tiger fighter jets of the Iranian Air Force took off from the rear airfield. Their mission was to bomb the annoying Iraqi armored forces that besieged Khomeini Port.

However, because of the tense battle, the Iranian Air Force could not spare any advanced fighters, so they only sent F-5s from the second-tier airports.

F-5E/F“虎”式战斗机在70年代是美国对其第三世界盟国进行军火倾销的主力机种，由于该机经历过实战考验并承袭有前一代F-5A/B“zìyóu战士”战斗机维护方便等特点，使其在问世后的10年内，被销售至全球21个国家和地区。在国际军火交易中形成法国“幻影”III、苏联米格-21以及F-5E/F三种机型鼎立的局面。

As a former ally of the United States, Iran has also equipped a large number of Tiger fighter jets for second-line troops.

In the battle, Iran often dispatches F-4 fighter jets, but with the consumption of the battle, the number of sorties that can take off is less and less, and the Tomcat is even more reluctant to use it, so it has to reactivate the F-5 Tiger fighter jet .Used for low-intensity combat.

For example, the Iraqi Air Force seldom flies low to the front line. These days, its own fighter jets have basically not taken off. The sky above Khomeini Port is very clean now, and the Iraqis’ vigilance must have been put to the lowest level.

Therefore, taking advantage of this time, they chose to attack the Iraqi army besieging Khomeini Port from the sea where the Iraqis least noticed. Even if they only blow up a few tanks, they can boost the morale of the defenders of Khomeini Port .

Moreover, it is said that this armored division in Iraq has self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, so after they enter Khomeini Port from the sea, they will directly penetrate the defense at low altitude and have a high success rate.

They didn't know that it was a very coincidental coincidence that the Iraqi Air Force also chose today to attack the ships in Khomeini's port.

The cover was provided by the newly purchased F-20 fighter jets of the Iraqi Air Force. This fighter jet and the F-5 are both from Northrop, and, so to speak, are brothers.

However, no one thought that the first victory of the F-20 would be its prototype, the F-5 fighter jet. Even later, even Northrow Corporation thought it was too ironic.

However, the warriors in the air don't have time to think about it so much. At this time, the distance between the two sides is 5 kilometers. At this distance, the F-[-]'s radar can't detect it at all, and attack first!

Although it is also equipped with Sparrow air-to-air missiles, what the United States exported to Iraq along with the F-20 is not the latest model in the Sparrow family. It has just entered service this year and is also the AIM-7M missile that has been in service for generations. A new type of reverse monopulse seeker, radio proximity fuze, and digital control circuit have been introduced. In addition, the missile body has also been streamlined to reduce air resistance, and its performance has been greatly improved.

And it is not the AIM-1976F missile that entered service in 7. Its power section is equipped with a new two-stage thrust engine, which increases the range and improves the electronic components.

What was sold to Iraq was only the same AIM-7E-4 medium-range air-to-air missile that the Iranian Air Force had. Its predecessor was the AIM-7E with a hit rate of less than [-]% in the Vietnam War. It is only a small-scale modification and upgrade. It can be said that this missile is replaced in the US Air Force's arsenal.

However, Zhang Feng has no long-term plan to use this kind of missile. The reason why he requires the opening of the weapon interface is to allow legal missiles to be mounted. Zhang Feng's longer-term plan is to jointly develop active radar-guided air-to-air missiles with a certain country.

In the current sky, medium-range air-to-air missiles are still guided by semi-active radar. The so-called semi-active means that the radar of the missile is only for receiving functions, and the radar that emits electromagnetic waves is the radar of the carrier aircraft. Therefore, after launching the missile After that, the carrier aircraft needs to keep shooting at the target and provide electromagnetic signals for the missile, and cannot do maneuvers to evade.Active radar guidance refers to the antenna inside the missile seeker, which can both receive and launch. Although limited by the diameter of the missile, the launch power cannot be very large, and the distance of autonomous guidance is only [-]. Kilometers or so, however, is already a world of difference.

Sweden's "Active Skylight Flash" Missile!

Because it is a low-cost aircraft, although the Iranian F-5 fighter is also equipped with a radar warning receiver, it is not omnidirectional, but an antenna is arranged at the rear and tail.

It didn't notice at all, just ahead, four fighter planes had locked on to them, and fired missiles!

After Adnan assigned the targets, the radars of each fighter locked onto an opposing fighter, connected the missile skillfully, and transmitted the guidance data to the sparrow missile through the 1553B data bus, and then pressed the launch button .

A flaming missile broke away from the launcher on the right side of the wing and flew out.

After launching the missiles, the four F-20s still maintained the posture of rushing their noses towards each other just now, and then flew forward.

At this time, the distance between the two sides was already close to thirty kilometers.

The radar of the F-5 lead plane finally discovered that there was a hidden mystery ahead, and there was an Iraqi fighter plane waiting for them!Moreover, judging from the echoes of the radar, the opponent actually launched a missile!

"Drop the bomb and get rid of it immediately." The pilot of the F-5 lead plane ordered.

Since it was performing a bombing mission, the wings and abdomen of the F-5 were full of bombs, and it flew heavy, unable to perform high-overload maneuvers at all.

Upon hearing this order, the four F-5 fighter planes immediately dropped the mounted bombs, and at the same time, hurriedly maneuvered to both sides.

It was already too late. At this time, the sparrow missile had already flown into their field of vision.

The lead plane climbed regardless of reasons, and a wingman behind it chose to climb together with it.

The other two made a dive.

At this time, the sparrow missile was confused.

Because, the bomb dropped by the F-5 fighter jet made its brain puzzled. Why did the target that had been selected just now become two, three,... so many?

Which one should I attack?

Due to the relatively large size of the bomb, the echo produced was similar to that of the F-5, so two sparrows misread it and rushed up according to the bomb thrown by the opponent.

The two F-5s that had been pulled up, looked at the missiles that had been shaken off, and felt relieved.

However, the two F-5s that dived did not have such good luck. One of them was killed by the sparrow, and the other dived too low, hit the sea surface, and was directly smashed to pieces.

Just as the lead plane of the F-5 was about to choose whether to engage the enemy head-on or run back, the opponent's formation of four planes had already entered their sight.

Melee?

I am not afraid of you at all! The F-5 fighter is relatively small in size and has the same maneuverability and flexibility as the MiG-21. Therefore, the imaginary enemy squadrons of the US Air Force are all served by F-5.

Then let's see who is the king!The Iranian Air Force is trained in American style, and they all have a tough style.
