The two TF30-P-412 turbofan engines output surging power. After being squeezed by Arsey, they pushed the heavy fighter jet with a load of nearly 30 tons to a height of 15,000 meters.

During the climbing process, the fuselage emits a slight vibration under the impact of the airflow. As the height increases, Zhou Qingfeng saw the first ray of morning light that lights up at dawn.

The ground shrinks rapidly, the sun rises slowly, the fighter planes are flying in the clouds, and the horizon extends rapidly to the distance. Only by flying in the air can you feel the vastness and magnificence of this world.

Persia's response to this "Tongcat" that suddenly took off was extremely slow. HESA was undergoing tidying, and when he heard the roar of the engine, he sent someone to check it. The factory area and the airport could be counted, and all the fighter planes that could fly were still there.

No one expected that the "organ donors" piled up in the warehouse were renovated and soared into the sky.

Although the ground radar found Zhou Qingfeng who was flying in the air and tried to establish communication with him, he could not send fighter planes to intercept him at this time.

As for the air defense missiles on the ground, they all need protection. As long as the "Super Tomcat" does not hit it directly, they can avoid it from afar.

Zhou Qingfeng's target is Kuwait, more than 500 kilometers away. Because the distance is quite far, he chose to approach from high altitude to save fuel. After all, he could not avoid the E-3 early warning aircraft arranged in the Middle East from a low altitude.

The ‘Super Tomcat’ did not fly to Kuwait from Persia. Zhou Qingfeng chose to take a little bit of the way. His route was northerly, and he first broke straight into Iraqi airspace and rushed past Basra.

This series of sarcastic operations shocked the radar stations on the ground of the two countries, and the communication lines became hot. Persia thought that its own "Tomcat" defected, and Iraq thought that its old opponent was coming to harass it.

Both of these companies are currently weak.

I won’t talk about Iraq. I just got hit by Hawk Sauce. Various ground facilities and equipment were blown up. Basra is close to Kuwait, and the radar station and airport are almost completely destroyed. Not many can be repaired.

Persia has been blocked for years, and its 62nd Tactical Fighter Squadron in the Gulf region can only fly, and the radar works normally only has single digits. Others need to rely on ground guidance.

The two brothers in distress could only watch the "Tomcat" in the sky flying over his head at a cruise speed of 0.8 Mach, without any ability to react.

The only way to deal with this is the Eagle Sword Army, which is performing a ban mission in the Bay Area. When Zhou Qingfeng broke into the sky above the Basra, the E-3 early warning aircraft carrying out the mission nearby found him on the radar screen.

The E-3 belongs to the Eagle Sauce Eighth Air Force. It took off from its base in Qatar and used the large S-band pulse Doppler radar on the back of the aircraft to monitor air movements within 300 kilometers of Kuwait.

The four F-15Cs are divided into two groups, responsible for air escorting within a range of 100 kilometers around the E-3 to ensure the safety of the early warning aircraft.

The E-3 was transformed by a Boeing 707 passenger plane, with several multi-function display consoles inside its body. Twelve radar operators and a duty officer worked in it.

When the radar operator identified a "Tomcat" in Persia, the officer on duty was bound to come and take a look.

Since fighter jets all have service life, the Persian ‘Tomcats’ were thrown to the cheaper F-5E in addition to general training.

"This should be a 'tocat' that will be redirecting to Bush." ​​The officer on duty didn't care much, "I don't know how many 'tocats' there are in Persia that can fly?"

Yingshang has just won the Gulf War and has an unshakable military advantage in this area. Anyone with a normal mind will not cause trouble.

To be on the safe side, E-3, which performs air control missions, let a group of F-15Cs that guard themselves meet up.

In theory, the two sides would pass by the midline of the Persian Gulf between about a hundred kilometers, and draw a dividing line of territory like a dog peeing, but no one would provoke anyone.

But not long after, the radar operator issued a warning and reported strangely: "This 'tocat' broke into Iraqi airspace and was flying over the Basra. It was accelerating, facing our 'whip' No. 6."

On the green radar console, the icons representing the fighter jets jumped in grids. Various vector data changed at all times. The officer on duty realized that the situation was wrong, so he ordered the two F-15Cs to perform tactical maneuvers and not stay in the front of the enemy plane.

Unlike early warning aircraft with omnidirectional detection, fighter radar can only detect a certain fan area in front of the nose. There is also a "unescape zone" of missiles in this fan.

Radars and missiles with different performances form a different "unescape zone". The radar of F-14A is powerful, and the "Immortal Bird" is an actively guided large long-range missile.

When the two are combined, the ‘no escape area’ is very large.

In contrast, the F-15C's killer weapon, "AIM-120", is a medium-range bomb, and has just been equipped with the A-type, with a maximum range of only 70 kilometers, which is far less than the 150 kilometers of the "Immortal Bird".

In the E-3 cabin, the officers on duty made the judgment correct. The two F-15Cs that were a hundred kilometers ahead were immediately ordered to deviate from their course and avoid their opponent's radar.

According to common sense, this is at most a demonstrative aerial encounter. Both sides say hello in the airspace dozens of kilometers away, detect each other with radar, and then "each goes back to their homes and find their mothers."

"Major, this 'Tomcat' is still accelerating. It has not responded to our evasion. It is still approaching 'Whip'6." The radar operator was shouting.

The "Tomcat" has crossed over the Basra and continued to fly south. It has just broken through the speed of sound and throws out a beautiful Mach ring behind the body. At this moment, it has been swept forward with a thunder-like explosion.

The officer on duty quickly grabbed the microphone and issued a radio warning to the F-15C ahead. But before he could speak, the encrypted radio came from the pilot's cursing call.

"Damn it, he locked us, his radar locked us. 'Eagle Nest', I'm 'Whip' No. 6, we asked to fight back."

The officer on duty could imagine the mood of the crew in front of him, which must have been upset by the beeping of the radar warning aircraft. But now no one has been authorized to fight back, so he must inform his superiors of the situation.

But things are not over...

Just the next second, a beeping sound also sounded in the cabin of the E-3. This large aircraft weighing more than 100 tons was also equipped with a radar alarm aircraft. However, the crew in the cabin had never heard this sound since they were in service.

Whether it was a driver, a radar operator, or a officer with the highest rank, everyone was stunned when they heard the sound, wondering how this sound came about?

After a few seconds, more than a dozen people in the cabin cursed in unison: "Fuck, we are locked."

It was that "Tomcat", only its "AN/AWG-9" pulse Doppler radar has this ability. If it were other fighter jets, it would be impossible to lock in targets one or two hundred kilometers away.

Provocation, this is a naked provocation!

The officer on duty was furious about it. He didn't even bother to inform the military information. Instead, he ordered the F-15C who was guarding himself: "I am the 'Eagle', 'Whip' No. 6, I authorize you to fight back against the enemy's provocation and allow the opponent to shoot down."
