Chapter 97 Kill the AWACS

97 kill the early warning machine

At three o'clock in the afternoon of this day, the second confrontation drill officially began.

Chen Fei and the other five brothers got into the fighter plane together. After checking, they slid out of the runway and arrived at the designated location.

Chen Fei asked for instructions using the encrypted channel: "The tower, the formation requested to take off!"

"Can take off!" the tower responded.

"I understand!" Chen Fei replied. After that, he loosened the brakes and pushed the accelerator rod and began to slide. The other fighter planes also began to slide along with the other. After gliding for a distance, the speed reached the critical speed of takeoff. Chen Fei then pulled the rod decisively, and the fighter planes roared into the blue sky.

After six fighter jets entered the scheduled airspace and formed, the tower ordered: "Turn to 102 and enter the attack airspace twenty minutes later."

"Turn 102 and enter the attack airspace twenty minutes later." Chen Fei responded, then pressed the rod and rudder and flew towards the location of the No. 2 station. The other five fighter planes also flew with him.

They had just flew out for a while, the commander of the No. 2 station ordered: "I found that the Blue Army was close to our airspace, with a group of six aircraft, and they would block our airspace in fifteen minutes and intercept them immediately!"

After receiving the order, two air formations that had been waiting in the air for a long time immediately turned and rushed towards Chen Fei and the others together.

at this time.

Command center of the Joint Command.

The staff on duty looked at each other in a glance.

Judging from the situation displayed on the big screen, this time, the Blue Army Squadron is in a worrying situation. Before they even reached the attack airspace, the fighter jets on the No. 2 station rushed over. It was too dark on the No. 2 station. Are you using this kind of damage trick?

However, it is hard for everyone to say anything. Without plans and unlimited free air combat, this is the rule set before. The other station No. 2 is just to maximize its performance. What can you say?

"I wonder if those little guys can survive the first attack?" Someone touched his chin and frowned.

"It should be possible, their abilities are pretty good!" another person responded.

"I think it's hard. The overall strength of the second station is already very strong. Now they have used these methods again. I guess they will also engage in electromagnetic interference. In this way, it is basically impossible for the Blue Army squadron to successfully raid. As long as the Blue Army can enter the attack airspace, I think their mission will be completed today!"

Everyone nodded after hearing this.

at this time.

XX airspace.

The Red Army fighter jet formation, which was heading to the No. 2 station on the intercepting road, received information from their commanders: "The Blue Army formation is rising at a height of 3,000, and at a distance of XXXX."

After hearing this, the Red Army's fighter pilots immediately replied: "I understand, I will take the enemy in three minutes!"

While talking, they pulled the rod and pulled up the height of the fighter. At this time, their height was only 2,000. Climbing up to the height will have an advantage in height, making it easier for them to launch an attack on the Blue Army formation.

At the second station, a group of on-duty staff couldn't help but smile secretly when they looked at the images on the big screen.

Blue Army, Blue Army, you still want to attack us. Now, you don’t know yet, you have become our prey!

The commander stared at the big screen and then said with a microphone: "Attack!"

"I understand!" The Red Army fighter pilot agreed, then turned on the fire control radar, and began to lock Chen Fei and his fighter jets.

at this time.

Chen Fei, who was in the first position, suddenly heard a rapid warning in the cockpit.

He knew that this was his fighter plane locked by the other party.

But he was not in a hurry, and just used radio to say to other formation fighters: "I'm locked!"

Li Zhi immediately said: "Start the interference!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he pressed a button. Soon, the sound of Chen Fei being locked disappeared, and they must be no longer visible on the other party's radar screen.

"The interference was successful!" Chen Fei used a radio channel.

Li Cheng's voice sounded: "Ying Long, they came out faster than expected. I guess they must have used the early warning aircraft! Why don't we kill the early warning aircraft first?"

Chen Fei frowned.

The early warning aircraft is very terrifying. Once the other party has an early warning aircraft hovering at a high altitude, then one side will be completely exposed to the other party's nose.

However, early warning aircraft generally have formation escorts, so it is not easy to defeat them.

Yang Dong seemed to understand Chen Fei's thoughts and immediately said in the channel: "I guess the other party is only transporting the -8X, but this kind of aircraft is limited by the interference angle of the onboard interference equipment, and its early warning capability is very limited. Therefore, in order to better play the early warning function, they will place the fighter jets in front of the battlefield. I estimate that this time they will not send fighter jets to cover because of underestimating the enemy. In addition, the flight performance of the Y-8 platform, especially its poor anti-icing performance, is prone to accidents. It is especially prone to problems in this airspace, so the altitude will not be too high. As long as we search carefully, it will be easy to find."

Yang Dong analyzed it one by one.

The most shining part of the Y-8X is undoubtedly the "Air King" radar system. It works in the I-band, with a viewing detection distance of more than 100 kilometers. It can monitor 100 aerial targets and 32 maritime targets at the same time. Even the submarine's periscope cannot escape.

In actual combat, the Y-8X is capable of taking on the role of command aircraft and guiding air or surface troops to intercept enemy aircraft and ships.

Since its debut in 2000, the Y-8X's role has not only been to combat smuggling and offshore patrols, but has also participated in joint sea and air military exercises many times. The main task is to provide beyond-visual radar support for the exercise forces to make up for the radar blind spots of surface ships.

However, in general, the Y-8X is still a "exploratory work". The new and modified Y-8 aircraft born in the 21st century are the real technological leap. They are collectively called "high-tech engineering". Their functions cover the fields that "air combat power multiplier" should have, from electronic confrontation, air warning, electronic reconnaissance, communication relay, and even missile warning and joint battlefield command.

However, this plane station 2 should not be available.

After listening to Yang Dong's analysis, Chen Fei made a quick decision and said, "Bailong, go find the early warning aircraft and kill it."

"I understand!" Yang Dong agreed, then pulled the operating lever, pulled the plane up, and then pushed the height of the throttle lever to increase the force!

While turning on the extra force, he also turned on the electromagnetic interference button.

An electronic pod was also hung under his fighter plane.

This is a decision made after careful discussion.

Distributed electronic interference is a choice that everyone makes after careful consideration.

This combat system is more advanced than the electronic fighter jets that my country has been pursuing before, and has more powerful interference capabilities, and even has the ability to destroy electromagnetically. For the Chinese Air Force, this direction is more advanced than that of the United States and more suitable for the Chinese Air Force.

Because in a short period of time, the Chinese Air Force will not have more powerful delivery capabilities than the US Air Force, so using this distributed electromagnetic interference is the most suitable choice.

The US Air Force adopts electromagnetic combat system to divide the electromagnetic combat system into several large modules. On the one hand, it develops professional electronic warfare aircraft, and on the other hand, it integrates various electromagnetic countermeasure equipment on various fighter aircraft. In addition, it also uses land-based electromagnetic combat systems to ensure combat effectiveness. This makes almost every fighter aircraft in the United States have very strong electronic countermeasure capabilities, and its professional electronic warfare aircraft have strong air combat capabilities. The E/A-18G equipped by the US Navy even has the record of shooting down F22.

China's "distributed electromagnetic interference" is not the case at all. China's electronic warfare tends to be specialized and scaled. China has used the Y-8/9 platform to develop advanced large electronic warfare aircraft, with a maximum take-off weight of nearly 80 tons, which makes this electronic warfare not only suppressing the US EA-18G in performance, but also crushing power.

But the Y-8/9 is not a problem. Although this electronic fighter can achieve combat-level electronic interference, it is not strong in combat power compared to EA-18G, and can even hide behind the battlefield to perform electromagnetic suppression tasks. Even so, there is still a risk of being shot down by the enemy's fifth-generation fighter.

However, China equips electromagnetic interference systems on various drones and ground vehicles to solve this problem. Although drones have poor electromagnetic interference capabilities, only about one-fifth of ordinary electromagnetic fighters, drones can completely solve the problem through quantity. The price of a drone is generally only one-tenth to one-twentieth of normal electromagnetic fighters, and the cost is actually lower.

In addition to cost issues, the endurance and range of drones are also very strong. Even ordinary drones of 5-ton class can reach a range of more than 5,000 kilometers, and their air stagnation capacity can reach more than 10 hours. Ordinary fighters only have 3 to 4 hours, while drones can reach about three times. 10 to 20 drones combined with a large electronic jammer can fully perform combat-level suppression tasks on a war zone, and are safer.

For China, the best one is the best. Although the integration and research and development of distributed electromagnetic interference systems is difficult, it is precisely the most suitable combat method for China. China's excellent technology in drone and electronic technology can also be used in this regard, which will greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the army.
