That's right, the other party made this idea. The other party definitely wanted to come and attack oneself. The other party was prepared. They must be turning on the radar and searching for signals against the sky. If they find their own early warning aircraft, maybe It may also be detrimental to the early warning aircraft.

Of course, now, if you have yourself, you will never let the other party succeed!

Chen Rui made up his mind and shouted: "The ghost asks to attack the target."

"Yes, the data is continuously being updated." An AWACS command came, and Chen Rui's hand immediately opened the weapon system. From this moment on, he officially entered the battle!

Wait, where's the radar officer?

At the beginning, when in the Tomcat fighter, because the powerful AWG-9 radar is not convenient to operate, and the procedure to guide the Phoenix is ​​also very complicated, a dedicated person is needed, so it can only be solved by a two-seater, and this way, The addition of an additional radar guidance officer is a huge cost for the army. The training of pilots is quite expensive, and their worth is worth a lot of money.

The current technology has developed rapidly, so a single-seater fighter is inevitable. Chen Rui is now flying a single-seater fighter, and there are also two-seaters, which can take on the task of a coach or a fighter-bomber, while the single-seater can save more fuel and equipment in the space saved in the back.

Chen Rui's operation is also very simple. He uses his gloved hands to touch the screen with a little bit, because this is a touch screen produced by the latest technology of Han Guo!

Now that it’s transplanted, it’s better to transplant all of it. Chen Rui’s finger clicks on the missile icon on the screen, clicks one to unlock one, and then assigns a target data to the missile, and then clicks Two and the third one, Chen Rui almost clicked on the eighth one at a stretch, and activated all the missiles under the belly of the plane before he stopped his hand. Launching eight at a time, let's have a luxurious firework this time!

Eight missiles, one is one million, that is also eight million, and the cost of a F-14 fighter is only eight million. Therefore, modern air combat is all about money.

However, for Chen Rui, this is not only actual combat but also a test flight. It is a test flight under actual combat conditions. The data obtained is also the most precious. As long as he has the opportunity, of course he has to do so. I just hope the pilots will not Scolding themselves, the military exploits are all their own, and then, let them watch themselves enjoying themselves in the back, their hearts must be extremely uncomfortable.

The target data is constantly being updated. Chen Rui started to activate the missile just from the distance of one hundred. Now, the target is getting closer and closer, from one hundred to eighty, and then from eighty to sixty. When the data reached forty, Chen Rui pressed the launch button.

Launched 40 kilometers away is already a good distance for medium-range air combat. The maximum range of a medium-range missile is related to many factors. Chen Rui definitely does not want to see his missile miss the target. Sure enough.

Now, his greatest assurance is the height difference. He launched downwards at an altitude of 20,000 meters, and the opponent is almost at sea level. Therefore, his missile has the energy of high altitude, and the range can be slightly widened. Some, if he was waiting for altitude, Chen Rui would patiently wait until 30 kilometers before firing. Now, as he started to launch, a spectacular scene appeared.

On the weapon pylon on the belly, eight milky white Thunderbolt 12 missiles fell off every second. When the first missile fell to a height of about two or three meters, the rocket engine at the tail ignited and propelled the missile to accelerate. It dragged a long white thick smoke and disappeared from Chen Rui's eyes.

Then came the second and third. When the eighth missile was shot out, the thick smoke of the first missile had spread out a huge plume of smoke like a chimney a few meters in diameter.

All eight missiles were successfully ignited!

If it is a wing pylon, the missile can be ignited directly on the wing to fly out. However, the J-11 fighter has a variable swept wing. If there is a pylon on the wing, then it must be moved so that the missile always moves towards Previously, the resistance was reduced, which would bring about the complexity of the structure. Grumman’s designers also used tricks to add a rack directly under the belly of the aircraft. If the belly of the aircraft was to be thrown down first, then the ignition , The attack procedure is different, there is no difference, anyway, the mid-range attack, the carrier aircraft is impossible to make large overload maneuvers.

However, Chen Rui seemed to have overlooked something. He didn't turn on his airborne radar or locked it with his own radar, so he launched a missile. Isn't this a violation of operating procedures?

If it is the previous Pili-11, of course it cannot be done. The seeker of Pili-11 needs continuous radar wave irradiation. At the same time, its attack program also determines that it must constantly change its direction as the target moves. Always stare at the target to fly. This is the method of all semi-active radars.

However, with active radar, this is not necessary.

The seeker of the active radar does not need to be aimed at the target all the time, and the airborne radar of the carrier does not need to be continuously illuminated and guided, even if the target temporarily disappears in front of it, it is fine. It only needs its own carrier. The radar refreshes the data of the predetermined coordinate points that intersect with the target at regular intervals.

The rest is that it flies on its own, so that it can choose its own trajectory. For example, the current Pili-12 missile will always fly at high altitude until it approaches the target before diving down and attacking.

Semi-active missiles have to constantly stare at the target. In this way, if the target is constantly maneuvering, the missile has to constantly change its direction and consume its precious energy in friction with the air.

Therefore, even if the rocket engine remains unchanged, the range of the active missile will be longer if only the seeker is changed.

As for the refresh of the target data, it can be the onboard radar or the onboard data link. The Thunderbolt-12 is now receiving the carrier’s data link for mid-flight. In this process, the carrier did not turn on the radar. , Because the aircraft uses the data link information of the early warning aircraft!

During the whole process, the carrier aircraft did not turn on the radar, which is exactly the hunting mode of the stealth aircraft!

If it is not locked, the other party's radar warning receiver will not be triggered. The other party does not know at this time. Unless they have an early warning aircraft, they will be able to spot the approaching missiles and the F-11 B without absolute stealth!

In air combat, the party with the support of active radar-guided air-to-air missiles and early warning aircraft, etc., has the absolute advantage!
