Dragoon fighter

Chapter 293 - Air Confrontation over the South China Sea

After careful identification, it was found that the areas of the main wings and horizontal and vertical stabilizers of the two F-35s seemed to be larger. When the radar could not completely confirm, Lin Mo quickly confirmed the opponent's area based on the difference in aerodynamic shape. model.

Check the fuel tank, OK, the auxiliary fuel tank is enough for two round trips! Lin Mo had no intention of throwing away the auxiliary fuel tank directly, otherwise this little fuel alone would not be enough to fly back after the fight.

The twin engines are oil tigers, not to mention the improved WS-10 Taihang turbofan engine. Although the fuel consumption has been improved compared to previous versions, it still consumes a lot of money. The fighter itself is not synonymous with economy and endurance.

The carrier-based model of the F-35 "Lightning II", the F-35C fighter jet, and Lin Mo's J-15 "Dark Halberd" are almost not only peers, but also enemies at the same time.

"Call the bridge and found two F-35 carrier-based aircraft. The coordinates were sent immediately. We suspect there are US military aircraft nearby."

Before Lin Mo finished speaking, he heard strong signal interference, and several indicators representing communication signals immediately changed from green to warning red.

Electronic jamming, which means that the other party has discovered itself and made a prompt decision to launch an ECM electronic jamming attack as soon as possible.

Lin Mo's hand had just left the signal button that sent the coordinates. Fortunately, the final confirmed coordinates had been sent before the opponent launched an electronic attack.

The satellite positioning system of the J-15 "Dark Halberd" sends confirmation coordinates to the Nandou military satellite system in space every 15 seconds, and a large number of buttons in the cockpit represent different functions. Some important and special functions do not have sub-menus. Go deeper into the selection. It can be started directly with one click. Although this is cumbersome, it can be quick and effective in special circumstances, just like Lin Mo is doing now.

Height represents the first move, and the first move is the strongest. Lin Mo immediately pulled the joystick backward to obtain a large elevation angle climb. The other side will not go to war without declaring it now, otherwise it will mean a formal war between China and the United States.

The fighters of both sides made climbing movements to face each other almost at the same time, accumulating a height advantage for their own fighters, which can be converted into speed energy at any time.

For jet fighters, speed is king, and they can gain additional acceleration while diving. This is also a tactical experience that continues in the era of propeller fighters.

"Did you see it, 'Swallow'? It's a Chinese carrier-based aircraft. It's really strange that we can see it here, and there is only one of it."

Major George Eyre, code-named 'Rocky Mountain', a C-Team pilot of the new F-35 "Lightning II" experimental squadron of the USS George Washington nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, has just turned on the integrated electronic warfare system (iews) Later, he secretly said to his comrades on the other plane.

Although the mainstream electronic warfare technology, the electronic warfare system based on radio frequency (RF) signals and the distributed aperture system based on infrared (IR) signals operate separately in different electromagnetic bo frequency ranges, through the powerful airborne integration of IEWS core processor icp. Cross-linked to work together. This greatly reduces the pilot's operating burden.

"I saw it! You launched an electronic warfare attack? Yes, there shouldn't be any adverse reactions?"

The pilot on another F-35 quickly turned on the anti-jamming mode after his comrade activated the electronic warfare attack mode.

Because the Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carrier has not yet been officially launched, the F-35 prepared for the Ford-class aircraft carrier was first installed on the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "USS George Washington", the largest Nimitz-class multi-purpose aircraft carrier in the United States and the world's largest. An experimental training squadron will be established first.

"There will be no problem. The opponent only has one and we have two. Are you scared? Don't worry! I won't use the fire control radar to illuminate it. If the opponent is smarter, they should turn around and leave. Haha." "Rocky Mountain" Major George Ayer still pulled the joystick and controlled the climb height of the fighter slowly, and then said: "Did you see that the other party is quite courageous and wants to compete with us a few times? It's great. Let's do it." Let’s teach him a lesson!”

"Okay. Let the people on the USS George Washington see how powerful we are. I think this record will be very valuable." Major Minique Jerry, code-named "Swallow", readily agreed. He wanted to know more about the U.S. Let’s compare the latest aircraft carrier-based aircraft with China’s latest aircraft carrier-based aircraft. Who is better?

This just makes so much sense.

"Call the USS George Washington and find a Chinese fighter jet. It should be a carrier-based aircraft. Please apply for testing."

"This is the USS George Washington. Attention Team C, this test is approved. Remember it is a test. The use of weapons to attack is prohibited."

"Team C confirms the order!"

Two F-35 "Lightning II" attacked the J-15 "Dark Halberd" carrier-based fighter jet that had reached an altitude of 13,000 meters in an enemy-facing attitude.

In fact, this kind of thinking of provoking China has always permeated the entire "George Washington" aircraft carrier fleet. Even people in the fleet think that occasionally provoking the Chinese side in a small way is harmless and is regarded as a normal thing.

As the first U.S. nuclear-powered aircraft carrier to be permanently stationed outside the United States, the "George Washington" has been on combat readiness since it was stationed in Yokosuka in 2008. It is responsible for cruising in the entire East Asia region. It goes to sea as usual every year and regularly participates in regional Military exercises.

Since 2010, the USS George Washington nuclear-powered aircraft carrier has intentionally or unintentionally used China's Yellow Sea to participate in US-ROK joint exercises to test China's limits and do everything possible to provoke it.

This is after the aircraft carrier "Kitty Hawk" tracked a "Han"-class attack nuclear submarine that China had completed training in the Yellow Sea, triggering a confrontation between the fighter jets of the two air forces. Laos and the United States have continued to conduct tests, or simply limited provocations. .

Well, Americans take this kind of behavior for granted as beating "Doudou" during eating and sleeping in daily life. As the new "Doudou", Lin Mo doesn't think that the Dragon Knight is a "Doudou" that anyone can bully. "Bean", anyone who despises the Dragon Knight is doomed to be unlucky.

"Look, 'Rocky Mountain'! It's coming towards us, so fast. It's a twin-engine fighter with missiles mounted under the wings. Wait a minute, it's recognized. It's a C-802 anti-ship missile. This guy must have just been Who have you caused trouble for?"

"I saw it, 'Swallow'. In fact, according to CIA information, the opponent's model is J-15, codenamed 'darkhalberd'. It seems to be slightly lighter than us."

"Doesn't this mean that the opponent's mobility is better than ours? Oh! This is really not good news!"

"It seems so, but their radar and operating system are not as good as ours? Don't worry! This is just a game, let's say hello to him."

Boom!~

At an altitude of more than 4,000 meters, the three aircraft passed each other for the first time. No one made any special maneuvers or used any fire control system to lock onto the other.

At the moment of the intersection, the pilot of one of the F-35 "Lightning II" made a challenge gesture in the cockpit, and the pilot of the "Dark Halberd" decisively responded with a confirmation gesture.

The Air Knight has his own principles. Even if he is an enemy, he will maintain the corresponding chivalrous demeanor when it is not a life and death duel.

However, both sides broke through the speed of sound at the same time, causing a violent vibration in the air and giving the other party a strong impact. It was obvious that the body of the aircraft was shaking abnormally, and the cockpit cover made a trembling rustling sound.

This is not playing house, there is still murderous intention hidden under the knight's demeanor.

"I locked on oh no, it avoided!"

"Calm down, we still have a chance to use the fire control radar to play with it! Hurry up, it attacks with scissor lines, we use double scissors to lock it! Haha, scissors versus scissors, of course the dual scissors are powerful, it Do you think you are a kitchen knife?"

"Okay, no, no, no, the opponent changed again. It was a high-G maneuver. Herbst reversed and recoiled back. I was locked. It was an aircraft cannon!"

"If you want to play with aerial cannons, are you bullying our ship-based model for not having a heads-up display? Fortunately, we are not the B-type F-35 that needs external aerial cannons. What a cunning guy, 'Swallow'! My buddy, don't be afraid, In terms of HMD, it is a good test subject. Yes, yes, yes, rush behind it and grab its tail. Just like the F-22, use a hook maneuver. No, no, no, damn, it can still see me. How is it possible? I'm out of edge visual range. Its radar can't be as advanced as ours, or its helmet can see behind just like ours. The CIA fool is lazy again."

One of the F-35 "Lightning II" pilots, Major George Eyre, codenamed "Rocky Mountain", adapted to the situation and led his wingman, Major "Swallow" Minique Jerry, to use the usual attack moves of the F-22 "Raptor" technique.

Three carrier-based aircraft belonging to the Chinese and American aircraft carriers started a fierce fight at an altitude of 7,000 meters. Two F-35 "Lightning II" chased the J-15 "Dark Halberd", but the "Dark Halberd" Halberd" launched super-mobile counterattacks from time to time. Neither side took the initiative to use real weapons to attack. They maintained restraint, as if it was an exercise contest between the two carrier-based aircraft, pestering each other one-on-one, and sonic booms were heard from time to time in the sky. The explosion was a battle between single-engine and twin-engine fighters, as well as a battle between carrier-based aircraft of the two countries.

In fact, the radar stealth performance of the F-35 "Lightning II" is better, and the airborne phased array radar of the J-15 is weaker. However, Lin Mo's light mirror technology has completely narrowed this technological gap. Even if it is radar invisible, it cannot be optically invisible. It is undoubtedly visible in the light mirror technology in Lin Mo's cockpit, and is completely used by the aircraft cannon.
