Accelerating to a distance of 800 meters, the wings gained enough lift. Asipovich pulled the control lever back, and the pointed nose pierced the darkness of the night sky, leaving only two groups of flames at the tail .

Behind him, the wingman followed suit.

After the Su-15 took off, it flew directly to the azimuth provided by the long-range radar, and flew at night, completely relying on the instruments.

"Attention, the other side took off two fighter planes, and they are flying towards No. 3 airspace, and immediately leave to the south." At this time, the E-3 pre-warning plane spotted the two fighter planes from the Soviet Union, and they must have come to intercept this special plane of our own side. of.

This intrusion is very useful. In the past few hours, although the intruding airliner has taken great risks, it has successfully detected electronic signals from various places in the Sakhalin Island area, thereby inferring the distribution of the other party's command. At the same time , tested the reaction time of their air defense forces.

Now, it's time to stop.

Hearing the news from the early warning plane, Chen Bingyong felt relieved for a while. The invasion of the opponent's airspace was finally over. He flew south and would soon fly out of the Soviet airspace.

At this time, the radar operator on the early warning plane suddenly discovered that the two Soviet fighter planes took off at a very fast speed, soon exceeding the speed of sound, and continued to accelerate!

Could it be the MiG-25?Damn, in the previous intelligence, there is no such fast Soviet interceptor here!

"Attention, the enemy plane is flying fast, please speed up to leave immediately, speed up to leave immediately!" the radar director of the early warning plane shouted.

The main combat mission of the interceptor is to intercept invading enemy bombers, reconnaissance aircraft or cruise missiles in the air, and to defend important towns, strategic locations, and transportation hubs from being attacked by air.

In order to quickly volley, the Su-15 will naturally turn on the afterburner and sprint at high altitude. Although it is not as good as the MiG-25, it has surpassed the Soviet MiG-21 and MiG-23 series aircraft.

At the same time, two EF-111 electronic jammers that had already taken off from the US air force base in Japan were also rushing at full speed, preparing to cover the Boeing 747 aircraft.

When variable-sweep wing technology dominates the world's aviation industry, all countries are actively developing variable-sweep-wing fighters. Among them, the most successful is the F-14 fighter, which uses computer-controlled full-range variable-sweep Wing, while the Soviet MiG-23 is completely different. It does not reflect the advantages of the variable-sweep wing, but also increases the weight. Similarly, there is the F-111, the world's first This variable-sweep wing fighter that was put into practical use was originally a fighter-bomber, but due to its overweight structure, it did not have any air combat capability and became a pure bomber.

However, the bomber's high payload and, thanks to the fast sprint capability afforded by the variable-sweep wings, made it a successful electronic warfare aircraft.

This kind of electronic warfare aircraft is fast, reaching Mach 2.2 at high altitudes, and can maintain a complete battle formation with the tactical aircraft it covers during the penetration defense mission. It has a long range and can fly more than 3200 kilometers without refueling in the air. The number of equipment is large, the performance is advanced, and various tasks can be completed.Long-range jamming, air defense penetration, close air support and other missions.

In 1981, this kind of fighter jet began to enter active service. In the early spring of this year, this kind of fighter jet was deployed to Japan and flew on the front line of confrontation with the Soviet Union.

In order to protect the Boeing 747 from exiting safely, the EF-111 electronic jammer took off urgently and sprinted at full speed at high altitude. As long as it passed Hokkaido, it could successfully interfere with the radar equipment on Sakhalin Island.

Hearing the voice from the radio, Chen Bingyong became a little anxious. He expected to fly out of the airspace of Sakhalin Island before the opponent arrived. However, the enemy plane was approaching rapidly. It must be a Soviet fast interceptor plane!

Get out quickly!

Chen Bingyong said to Song Dongxiong on the right: "Increase the engine to the maximum thrust."

This kind of airliner will not have afterburner. Four PWJT9D-7A with full throttle can only accelerate Boeing 747 to Mach 0.9, which is already the limit speed.

However, in order to escape, they naturally need to escape as quickly as possible.

Song Dongxiong on the right pushed the engine throttle lever to the front, but his hands were trembling.

Chen Bingyong is his old partner, and he also knows that as a pilot of a civil aviation aircraft, it is normal to feel flustered when encountering such a situation.

Suddenly, on the front dashboard, several instruments were turning rapidly, and at the same time, several alarm lights began to flash.

Second right engine failure!

I'm really afraid of something!After flying for so many hours, the Boeing 747's engine has never had any problems. Who knows, at this critical moment, one engine failed.

This incident became a suspense, but unfortunately, everyone on the plane will not know whether this mechanical failure was an accident or someone deliberately sabotaged it. The purpose is to let the plane be shot down by the Soviet Union!

Although President Reagan did not agree, it does not mean that other people will not play tricks behind their backs. What is most needed in this incident is to help the President survive this crisis!

Therefore, the sacrifice of this aircraft is of great significance.At Weinberg's behest, the Boeing 747, at the most critical moment, broke down.

"Damn, how could the engine fail!" Chen Bingyong didn't have time to think so much, he just thought about how to start the engine again in the air.

The Boeing 747 is a large airliner. When it was designed, some people have been doubting whether it can fly. In an objective sense, the success of this airliner has a lot to do with the four large turbofan engines. Yes, now, losing power to one of the engines, the speed of the airliner immediately slowed down.

In this dark and silent night, above Sakhalin Island in the eastern Soviet Union, a large Boeing 747 airliner was struggling, waiting for an unknown fate.

In the west, two Su-15 interceptor planes of the Soviet Air Force are flying rapidly.In the south, two EF-111 electronic warfare planes are also flying in a fast sprint.

But the most deadly Boeing 747 airliner is flying slowly.

"The Soviet plane is expected to arrive in 3 minutes." The E-3 early warning radar operator said anxiously, looking at the light spots on the radar screen.

At this time, the EF-111 electronic jammer will also fly to a distance that can interfere after 3 minutes.

Chapter 5 Fourteen: The Far East Military Region's Battle

Under the guidance of the ground personnel, Asipovich drove his own fighter plane towards the predetermined airspace in the dark night sky.

Under the wings of the Su-15 interceptor, two AA-3 "Anab" medium-range air-to-air missiles and two AA-2 Aphid short-range air-to-air missiles are mounted.

In the cockpit, Asipovich turned on his airborne radar. Following the guidance of the ground personnel, he had already entered the range of the airborne radar.If it was daytime, he might be able to spot the other party with his eyes.

Behind him, the wingman followed the flames from the tail of his fighter.

In the night sky, if the aircraft of the opponent is visually spotted, if the navigation lights are not turned on, the most obvious sign is the exhaust flame from the engine exhaust nozzle.

The light on the radar screen turned around, and a bright spot appeared on it, only ten kilometers away from him.

"Attention, the target is directly in front, ten kilometers away, prepare to visually identify the enemy plane." Asipovich said.

At this time, it is only five years since the last time the Su-15 shot down a civil aviation airliner. If it shoots down a civil aviation airliner again, the Soviet Union will face great international pressure. Therefore, they need to visually detect other side.

Asipovich continued to fly forward, his gaze was looking out from the glass of the small flight cabin, focusing on the area guided by the radar.

Finally, he saw a spot of light in front of him, and when he got closer, there were three spots of light.

The three light spots represent that the opponent has three engines, and it is a bright spot on the radar screen. In this kind of night, it is impossible for three planes to form a dense formation. In this case, it should be a large plane.

But what exactly is a three-engine aircraft?Asipovich was thinking, is it a Boeing 727, or a McDonnell Douglas 11, or a new American aircraft that has never shown up?

The Boeing 747's right engine stopped in the air, causing the Soviet pilots behind to be confused.

"Report, a large aircraft of unknown type was found." Asipovich reported to the ground.

"Keep approaching. If necessary, you can use machine guns to deter the opponent." The ground commander said. At this time, Admiral Tretyanko had arrived at the Far East Air Defense Command and stood behind the ground commander.

Sure enough, there is a large plane!Admiral Trechyanko felt a little uneasy. In the Cold War, a very unexpected move may lead to a major military confrontation.

However, as the senior commander of the Red Empire, Admiral Tretchiyanko is a tough person. As long as it violates the airspace of the Soviet Union, even if it is a Trek passenger plane, when necessary, he must give the opponent enough counterattack !This is the style of a great country!

At this moment, there was a loud noise from the radio, and everyone present knew very well that it was strong electromagnetic interference!

At this time, in this place, there was a strong electromagnetic interference, definitely not by accident!These electromagnetic interference signals are clearly here to protect the fighter plane being tracked by them!

Everyone in the Air Defense Air Force Headquarters knows that this electromagnetic interference signal is a naked violation of them, and they must not let their hands go!

"Take off the Tu-126 pre-warning plane immediately, and then take off a MiG-29 carrying anti-radiation missiles!" General Tretchiyanko said calmly: "Immediately report the situation here to Moscow, and we request a firm response." Shoot down the enemy plane!"
