Chapter 385 Artillery Interceptor

"So, regarding the subsequent operations, I propose a plan..."

Thinking of the backward electronic equipment and the powerful fan G-25 of the high-speed one, Long Yun had a new idea: "If we want to transfer fighter jets from other troops, can we use the fan G-25 to try it?"

"Miss g-25? Comrade General, you mean-"

"Yes! Since the absolute speed of existing fighter jets cannot catch up with the Blackbird, there is no question of using air cannons to launch attacks. Then find a MiG aircraft that is fast enough. How about it? Are there any G-25s in other nearby national air defense regiments?"

Facing Long Yun's question, the leader of Levsenko and the political commissar next to him seemed to have remembered something. After the two of them had a brief conversation, the political commissar left the conference room to call the top to confirm, and the leader stayed to ask about his detailed ideas:

"Xie Miao will contact you now, but I remember there should be some. Why, Comrade Rezenov, do you want to drive the G-25 to air and intercept the 'Blackbird'? But as far as I know," Levsenko glanced at Asimov next to him, who cleared his throat and continued his technical speech. "Let me explain, Comrade General, the G-25pd and other interceptor types in the National Air Defense Force equipment have almost all been retired, that is, they have been replaced by the G-31. The rest are basically reconnaissance types. And whether it is the reconnaissance type G-25r or the interceptor type PD, these models also... do not have air cannons."

"No, either?...oh, yes, that's right."

Hearing Asimov's words, Long Yun couldn't help but sigh in his seat. He knew about this, but why was it so unexpected?

For high-speed interceptors, the air cannon is indeed a useless decoration, but this reasonable omission design caused considerable trouble to his plan. Of course, without a fixed air cannon, you can also consider the air cannon pod mounted on the fighter jet. However, based on his understanding, the Soviet Air Force, which emphasized that special aircraft is specially used, rarely uses this kind of thing.

However, since this is the case, Long Yun had no choice but to think of a possibility. Since the weapon on hand is like this, can he find a Mi G-25 and then try to install a large-caliber artillery suitable for use at high altitude and high speeds? Although he has only seen a corner of the huge base in the unfamiliar Alarsk base, generally speaking, such bases far away from the city will have relatively complete fighter aircraft support facilities, and it may be possible to simply modify the fighter aircraft.

"Since there are no air cannons, it doesn't matter. Let's try to get two MiG-25s first, and then find a way. Well, Comrade Asimov, can you find a few sets of large-power air cannons, at least 30 mm caliber? Without air cannons, we can try to install them ourselves. Is this OK?"

"I think, - it should be fine. There is a maintenance workshop in the base and the equipment is basically complete. However, there are not enough air cannons used by the fighter jets yet, so I'll contact you now."

Seeing that the deputy regiment commander Asimov also received the task and left to contact the maintenance workshop and transfer the navigation artillery, the regiment commander Levsenko was no longer at a loss as before. It seemed that the number one ace in front of him was really creative, but I didn’t know if this method was easy to use? No matter what, the so-called “poor thinks about change” is the first to break free from the previous missile interception, and there is hope for this matter to be accomplished.

"Ah, Comrade General, how do you plan to modify the MiG machine you transferred? The activities of the 'Black Bird's recently are quite regular, and they simply treat our interception as air. In short, the faster we do it, the better."

"Yeah, I think so too."

Thinking of the frequent invasion of the "Black Bird" reconnaissance aircraft, maybe they would come in to stroll again tonight, Long Yun also thought this was outrageous. If it weren't for the inexplicable mysterious interference, those SR-71s would have long been crushed and lying in the desert of Central Asia to bask in the sun!

"I will start the modification immediately. It should be fine if I install the air cannon. As for the invasion line of the 'Black Bird', are there any new discoveries now?"

Long Yun was actually quite casual when he asked. He felt that to successfully intercept the SR-71, not only should the weapon be modified, but it is also important to understand the opponent's movement rules. However, when he heard his question, Commander Levsenko was interested:

"Discover? I'm really a little bit discovering. No matter how cunning the fox is, hey! - Look, look at this," the regiment commander found one from a large number of slides, and did not turn on the slide projector again. He asked Long Yun to take it and take a look. "Look, according to some information sent by the KGB, we have also speculated on the purpose of the Americans' reconnaissance; the most worthy targets in Central Asia are in addition to the Baikonur Space Center and several strategic missile positions, and there are some military bases and industrial centers. However, the previous route of the "Blackbird" obviously had no rules, and it was impossible to tell what target was to be reconnaissance.

However, if we think about this issue from another perspective, we may come to another conclusion: as depicted in this film, if we overlap the tracks of the 'Black Bird', we can find that although the tracks of the reconnaissance are quite chaotic, they can form a sparse network. This network basically covers a large area in the hinterland of Central Asia, although the network itself is dense and sparse and irregular."

While speaking, Commander Levsenko seemed to be afraid of the walls and kept his voice confidential, "According to this attitude, Major General, I always feel that the Americans are not doing any strategic reconnaissance."

"Oh..." I felt that what the commander said made sense, Long Yun looked at the slide in his hand again, "Isn't it a strategic reconnaissance?"

"Yes, this is me, and Xie Miao's guess; I guess the KGB also thinks so."

While speaking, Levsenko took out a cigarette box from his pocket and took out a cigarette to pause on the table, "Major General, do you have one too? - OK, then I'm not polite. Look, if the tracks of the 'Blackbird' are to investigate any strategic goals, then technically, at least there must be a certain time interval to get enough photo records. Do you have a track like this?"

He took a breath with a cool breath. In the dim light conference room, Levsenko's eyes seemed to have become brighter. He slowly expressed his long-term inference in a slightly hoarse voice:

"I think the American 'black bird' is something very important to look for in Central Asia.")
