Chapter 723: Not talking about martial ethics, sneak attack on Phantom 2000 (page 12)

While shouting a reminder to his wingmen, Aslam ignored the bombing mission and directly adjusted the weapon selection button to "EMER" (emergency release), then pulled the trigger and threw all the bombs together with the auxiliary fuel tanks. It entered the valley, and then quickly entered the subduction.

In an instant, the snow-covered mountains outside the cabin rushed towards him like a high wall, and continued to recede from the corner of his vision.

The Qiang 5III does not have the relatively reliable low-altitude automatic navigation capabilities of the MiG 27 or Mirage 2000H. Although it has a radio altimeter that can be used to avoid collisions, the pilot still has to break the control stick himself.

In this kind of valley terrain, if you wait until the thing sounds the beep, you will basically be dead.

However, he had to take this risk.

The two menacing planes suddenly appeared from a distance and had obviously been lying nearby for quite some time.

It is very likely that as soon as our plane took off from the airport, there were secret agents lurking around and reported the news to the other side.

The position that was blown up just now was obviously a fake position in disguise.

In other words, it's a trap.

Faced with this kind of enemy who is armed with medium-range bombs and is well prepared, delaying time to wait for support or waiting for an opportunity to escape is obviously more realistic than climbing up and using an attack aircraft to fight other fighters head-on.

Although the Qiang 5III has achieved many "shootdowns" in simulated air combat confrontations, these only reflect the gap in pilot capabilities, not the performance of the aircraft.

Veteran instructors from the US military flight school can shoot down F45s flown by rookies flying T15 trainer aircraft, but this does not mean that the former can compete with the latter on the battlefield.

Fortunately, for most radars in this era, the thousands of kilometers of mountains at the junction of the East Asian continent and the South Asian subcontinent are definitely a nightmare application scenario. As long as you dare to fly to a low enough altitude, you can avoid it. Radar lock.

Of course, this process will inevitably lose some energy, resulting in a huge disadvantage in the subsequent battle within visual range.

But for now, we have to survive first before thinking about the long term.

Sure enough, the RWR warning sound in the captain's ears quickly calmed down.

"Panther Two, Black Panther Two, how are you doing? Pay attention to lowering the altitude!"

He tried to check on his wingman.

But no response.

It is naturally impossible for old aircraft to have any satellite communication capabilities, and ordinary radios are indeed very unstable in this kind of terrain. Whether they can be connected depends entirely on their appearance.

Of course, it is also possible that it has been shot down.

After calling twice more, Aslam began to feel a little panicked.

In the valley, he couldn't see the two planes on the opposite side.

It was also because he couldn't turn in the valley, so he could only fly forward with his head down.

It is very likely that he will suddenly rush into the opposite face.

Just when he was already thinking about whether he could survive in the ice and snow after parachuting, a calm voice suddenly came from the radio:

"Panther One, can you hear me?"

It's in Urdu.

Qiang 5’s radio stations only have simple frequency hopping encryption capabilities and poor frequency accuracy, and they are also mature shelf products in the West.

The other party doesn't even need any electronic warfare. As long as the frequency band is adjusted to a nearby location, some conversations can be vaguely heard.

Although the likelihood of this being such a coincidence is low, it cannot be ruled out.

Therefore, communicating in English is obviously not a good thing in this situation.

"Tail Blade No. 1, I'm in the valley on the north side of the target. There are..."

Aslam struggled to find some defining feature in the receding terrain, but was interrupted mid-sentence.

"I know your place."

Sammy's voice on the radio was also a little blurry, and it seemed that the blocking effect of the mountains was starting to appear again.

Fortunately, before the voice completely disappeared, the other party still told the whole plan:

"There will be a mountain pass about 5 kilometers ahead of you. Turn right out of there, and then fly east. My wingman and I are behind the second-highest mountain. You draw the enemy over and we will deal with it."

"Can you see where my wingman is?"

Aslam's call only received an extremely vague squeaking sound. It was obvious that the other party heard the question, but the answer was not fully conveyed.

"call--"

He took a deep breath and decided to forget about his wingman for the time being and save his own life first.

"The mountain pass ahead..."

Aslam quickly saw the spot where Sami told him to turn.

The moment he flew out of the mountain pass, he saw two white trails above and to his left.

Apparently they were the two Indian fighter jets that had been ambushed before.

"grass……"

He secretly cursed the other party for his inhumanity, and then, ignoring the threat of infrared bombs, he quickly activated the afterburner and accelerated to fly behind the mountain the other party mentioned.

Apparently, the rumors within the Air Force are true.

Sammy really likes to let his teammates bait him and then sneak up on him from behind.

And then he has to act like he is the savior.

But the key is that others can’t refute it yet…

Nervous Aslam had to look back almost every two seconds to confirm the position of the two enemy planes.

When he turned back for the third time, two white trails had turned towards him, obviously seeing the Q-5 heading into the mountain.

RWR also reminded him that there was an X-band radar behind him, and it was determined to be a legal RDI type, but it has not locked on it yet. .

It's Mirage 2000H.

This made the frightened captain relax a little.

The performance of the RDI radar is much better than that of the N29 on the MiG-019, but both are basically blind when facing low-altitude targets drilling into mountains.

Once it flies within visual range, the combination of the latter's R73, OEPS-29 photoelectric sighting system and helmet sight is very deadly.

Not to mention the possibility of a unique infrared-guided mid-range missile like the R27T.

In comparison, the threat of Magic 1/2 is simply negligible.

……

The slightly weak acceleration of the Mirage 2000 gave the Captain a chance.

Before he could break out of the valley and get behind the peak Sami had designated, one of the enemy planes reluctantly fired a missile.

But of course the target was lost.

But Aslam is also facing his own troubles.

On the other side of the mountain is a relatively flat plateau, and there is no longer a complicated terrain for him to move around.

The captain looked back, but did not find Sami, who claimed to be ambushing him.

He panicked instantly.

What would happen if the two planes from the opposite side catch up?
