Great warships

Chapter 667
The roasted camel is a state banquet, not only because the camel is huge, and it can be prepared by putting 17 different seasonings in a special large oven for 7 days, but also because it is a Russian nesting doll!
From the inside, first put the egg in the belly of the fish, then grill the fish, wait until the fish is cooked, then stuff the fish into the belly of the chicken and duck, and then continue to roast the chicken and duck. In the stomach of the sheep, the whole roasted sheep is stuffed into the stomach of the camel at last, so this is not just the camel you see in front of you, there are many good things in its stomach.

Kelly had never eaten this state banquet, and he made a fool of himself again. When Qin Tao finally took out the egg from it, Kelly had to find a crack in the ground to get in.

Of course, this kind of state banquet can only be attended by big figures, and pilots like Delano have to stay in the base obediently.

Salah didn't leave either. On the bonfire at the base, the two roasted a sheep and chatted while eating.

"Have you ever used this aircraft in actual combat?"

"Of course not." Delano said: "This aircraft is a product of international cooperation. Although the Eastern Navy and Air Force have taken a fancy to it, they have not yet received it, let alone officially entered service. Now this aircraft is only continuing to test and fly. Perfect, while preparing for low-speed production, how can it be used in actual combat, as you know, the East has not fought a war for ten years.”

Salah nodded: "Yes. There is indeed no war in the East."

"However, once your air force is equipped, you can use it to perform missions at any time, such as flying to a certain country for reconnaissance missions, and so on. It's no problem," Delano said.

Fly to a country to scout!Hearing Delano's words, Salah was immediately excited. For them, they have never forgotten that they still have an enemy by their side!

With this kind of fighter, they can finally gain a technological advantage. The United States will never sell this fighter to them, because in the Middle East, the Americans first protect the interests of their number one ally.

"The East is our real good friend." Salah said: "Excuse me, will you stay and be our instructor?"

"This kind of aircraft is so advanced that there is no need for a two-seater trainer model. You only need to train on the ground simulator. After passing the training, you can directly fly a single-seater fighter jet to take off. That's how I changed to fly." Delano said : "I can help you adapt to flying, but I will not stay as an instructor, I still have a lot of work."

What Delano likes most is challenging all unknown things, being an instructor?He was tired of being in the east, and he didn't want to stay here and continue to be an instructor. If he was flying a plane here to perform some special tasks, it would be more or less the same.

The two ate and drank drinks, and soon the night was over.

the next day.

The sky was clear and it was a good weather for flying.

In the Prince Sultan Air Force Base, a huge E-3 early warning aircraft was getting ready for takeoff. Watching the people coming and going, Qin Tao said, "It would be great if I could get on the early warning aircraft to have a look."

"Sorry, the AWACS is American-style equipment, we can't let a third party step on it." Salman said: "There is a special ground command center in the command tower of our base, where the AWACS can receive the news synchronously. OK."

"Well, we won't embarrass our friends." Qin Tao said, "Also, the representatives of the Typhoon fighters have to stay on the ground, right?"

"That's right, let's enjoy it on the ground." Kelly said, "We have full confidence in our fighter planes. Everyone, why don't you go and see them on our fighter planes first?"

It was originally eye-catching yesterday, but who would have thought that the limelight would be taken away by the Orientals, and the Saudi Air Force hasn't looked carefully at the Typhoon fighter yet.

"I have seen the appearance of the fighter plane. By the way, what is the layout of your cockpit?"

"One level and three strokes, classic layout."

"Then forget it."

never mind?Kelly glanced at Qin Tao in surprise. Could it be that the fighter cockpits of the Orientals are more advanced?This is impossible!

The E-3 early warning aircraft with a large plate took off, followed by the Typhoon fighter jets and came to the runway.

"Everyone, please appreciate our short take-off capability." Kelly is still making the final effort: "Our aircraft is the most advanced!"

"Everyone, our plane is about to take off. You can fix the radar of the Patriot missile in the direction of our temporary field airport and see if it can find our plane." Qin Tao said.

"That's right, let's go and have a look!" Hurray, a large group of Saudi Air Force officers left.

What's so cool about a short takeoff?Isn't it just to shorten the take-off distance?

Yesterday, the radar of the Patriot missile was rotating. Moreover, the landing gear of the J-31A was lowered before landing, and it could almost touch the runway when it was lowered. When a fighter plane takes off, how far can it be detected by radar!
Stealth fighters will definitely destroy the stealth layout during take-off and landing, and they will be detected by radar at this time, which makes them full of expectations.

"I'm leaving too. Your fighter planes are so advanced that they can take off on an aircraft carrier without a catapult. Our planes can't do it. If customers need it, we have to install a set of electromagnetic catapults for them at the airport. It can take off at a distance of 100 meters, which is no match for you." Qin Tao turned and left, leaving behind a sentence that disgusted the British again.

Dongfang has a catapult, or an electromagnetic catapult!Now the carrier-based aircraft version is provided to Saudi Arabia. Just find a place to install it, and 100 meters is enough to take off. The proud short-range take-off of their Typhoon fighter jets is useless in the eyes of Orientals.

The command center was crowded.

"I just had a phone call with the other side, and it is expected to take off in 10 minutes. At this time, the early warning aircraft has reached the cruising altitude, just to see if I can spot the fighter jet that is about to take off." Someone said.

There are still 10 minutes left, and we can wait for the typhoon to take off before coming here. However, since we have already come here, there is no need to go out. Anyway, they have seen it many times for ordinary take-off and landing. Short-distance take-off Nothing great either.

"The early warning aircraft should be difficult to find." Another person began to analyze: "Our early warning aircraft is looking down. If the stealth of the stealth aircraft is good enough, it will be invisible from the overhead view. After all, if you can't avoid the supervision of the early warning aircraft, What kind of stealth plane is that? However, our ground radar is side-looking, and the distance of [-] kilometers is not too far. As long as the plane is pulled up, it should be able to see it."

Whether the landing gear is retracted or not, it cannot be seen from the top view, only from the side view.

"That's right, when the F-117 fleet was stationed here a few years ago, we were able to accurately capture the take-off and landing stages."

There was a roar from outside, and the Typhoon fighter had already started its engine and was getting ready for takeoff. However, few people outside were admiring the takeoff of the Typhoon, and everyone was waiting for the J-31A to take off.

Time passed little by little, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes...

10 minutes finally passed, and there was still nothing on the radar screen.

"What's going on? Did the plane fail to take off because of a malfunction?" Some people began to worry.

"Yeah, call and ask about the field base immediately."

One minute later, a staff officer put down the phone: "The field base reported that the J-1A had taken off three minutes ago."

"This is impossible. Our phased array radar has been monitoring, and the early warning aircraft in the sky has already cruised. Why haven't we found that plane taking off? During the take-off and landing phase, its stealth should be destroyed! "

"Report, there said that the J-31A did not climb up immediately after takeoff, but flew at an ultra-low altitude for 1 minute, and then climbed up after the landing gear was fully retracted."

Here, the Typhoon fighter takes off very quickly. After a short takeoff, it climbs almost directly vertically, which fully reflects the powerful power of that aircraft, which is also an obvious sign of the third-generation aircraft.

The take-off of the second-generation aircraft is slow, only the take-off of the third-generation aircraft can be so fast!However, the take-off of the J-31A took a different path.

The radar attached to the ground level found that the farthest target on the horizon would not exceed 31 kilometers. At the base [-] kilometers away, the J-[-]A flew directly at ultra-low altitude after taking off. Of course, the radar here found nothing. (Thanks to the support of book friends, accurate calculations have been made in the book review area, and the discovery distance on the horizon will not exceed [-] kilometers.)
They were still waiting to be spotted on the radar and found nothing!
The Patriot radar began to spin again, and the early warning aircraft in the air were also searching, but since the J-31A took off, it has left from everyone's sight!
This has never happened before.

The Saudi Air Force officers present were all excited.

"Great, it means we have a fully stealthy fighter!"

"That's right, neither the early warning aircraft nor the ground radar can detect its existence. We like this kind of fighter!"

Originally, the J-31A took the route of international cooperation, which was to export and earn foreign exchange. Now, with the Saudi Air Force's test in the exercise state, the stealth of the J-31A has been perfectly verified. When the news spread, The J-31A instantly became the most popular model in the world.

This originally belonged to the honor of F-35, but who made the progress of the Americans slow? If the JSF drags on, the world's large orders for military aircraft may all fall to the East.

At this time, the pilot of the typhoon fighter jet flying in the air was in a hurry. He took off ahead of time, just to find out the whereabouts of the opponent as soon as possible. However, who would have thought that the opponent took off almost at the same time as him, and after he took off, the opponent had already taken off , Moreover, I don't know where I flew to!
"Open the data link!" the Typhoon pilot shouted at the plane.

A data link prompt appeared on the screen, and a few seconds later, the data from the AWACS was transmitted to his plane.

Who says he can't cheat?

The E-3 early warning aircraft used by the Saudi Air Force is usually operated by the Saudi Air Force and American advisers. Even the F-15 fighter jets often have American instructors sitting in the back seats. The United States and the United Kingdom wear a pair of pants, and they I also want to destroy the export of military aircraft in the East, so of course I have to fully support it!

When the Saudi radar officer on the AWACS did not find any abnormalities, the American consultant had already opened the data link back door of the AWACS and quietly passed the data searched by the AWACS to the Typhoon fighter jet.

However, there is no use for birds.Because the early warning aircraft also found nothing!

Looking at the empty display data on the screen, the Typhoon pilot was a little annoyed: "Damn it, where did that plane hide? Could it be that the Orientals have been able to manufacture planes with better stealth performance than the F-117?"

No one answered him. Secretly transmitting data through the data link is already the greatest degree of cheating. It is impossible for the American consultant on the early warning plane to communicate with him by voice.Moreover, in the case of voice communication, more people can hear it.

If you want to attack the target, finding the enemy is the first step. Now, since the radar of the early warning aircraft cannot find the target, then the radar of the typhoon must not be able to find it either. Therefore, he has only one way left: visual inspection search!
When there was no electronic equipment at the beginning, pilots relied on a pair of eyes sharper than eagle eyes in the sky. Ordinary people could see targets the size of fighter jets no more than ten kilometers away, and pilots had to reach at least twenty kilometers. Pilots have to be five to ten kilometers higher. Today's typhoon pilots are sure to be able to visually spot targets [-] kilometers away.

Moreover, the target is still completely black. This kind of painting is a ghost in the night, but it is very easy to expose the target during the day, so he is confident to find the target!
However, when he was searching for the target, a hurried voice sounded in the earphone: "Danger, it has been locked, danger, it has been locked!"

It's over so soon?He has only been flying into the sky for less than 5 minutes. If he is an apt description, he is definitely a man who shoots in seconds.

Just entered and it's over?
The pilot of the Typhoon fighter jet was angry: "Damn it, it's not fair, it's not fair! I was locked before I entered the battlefield, and I asked to do it all over again!"

When they heard the voice from the radio, a group of people in the command center on the ground showed contemptuous expressions. Of course, they had a premonition that the stealth machine has a huge advantage and can instantly kill non-stealth machines. It is reasonable to end without beginning.

However, this British person does not accept it!

They are very contemptuous, they belittle others when they win, and renege on debts when they lose. This kind of person is too bad.

However, they didn't say anything, but looked at Qin Tao.

Whether to accept the other party's continued challenge is yet to be answered by President Qin.

"In a regular air battle, each should fly to a certain starting airspace, and then wait for an opportunity to attack the opponent. Now, the airspace for the exercise has not been determined, so it is not considered a start. This is a despicable sneak attack!" The typhoon pilot continued to hear from the sky. call.

What did you say yesterday?Take off into the sky, each finds the other side by their own abilities, now what?He actually started to complain about the unfairness again. This clearly means that the referee is unfair. This exercise was arranged by Saudi Arabia.

Salman's face darkened, and he wanted to say something. At this moment, Qin Tao said: "Then follow their requirements. Each of them stipulates a certain starting airspace. After flying over, start again."

"You can invite Typhoon fighters to fly to airspace No. 8, and Dongfang fighters to fly to airspace No. 3." This time, the American consultant in the early warning aircraft spoke.

"Sure enough, this is the fairness that they Westerners say." Qin Tao said: "In this way, when the two sides are flying head-on, our pilots are facing the sun, and the opponent's pilots are facing away from the sun. Dozens of kilometers away, we found the sunlight reflected by our fighter plane.”

Salman nodded: "That's right, we can't agree to this plan. We can let the Vostok fighter jets fly to the No. 8 airspace, and let the Typhoon fly to the No. 3 airspace."

The referee has begun to take a stand!From this point of view, the British have already lost, but now, they must convince the opponent to lose!
"Your Excellency Salman, if this plan is changed, even if the Typhoon fighter loses, the pilot will still make excuses, so let's do what they say,"

Salman looked at Qin Tao with satisfaction: "Qin, you really are our good friend! Always think for us, no matter what the result of this exercise is, we will never give up purchasing this stealth fighter jet from your side."

"Wild dog, go to airspace No. 3 and prepare for the next confrontation!"

For the first time, Delano's voice came over the radio: "Dingo received."

"Quick, locate!" In the early warning aircraft, the American consultant shouted.

With the big plate on the back of the aircraft, it is obviously impossible to find the Eastern AWACS. Fortunately, a strategic AWACS such as the E-3 will definitely not have only one detection method. It can also passively detect electromagnetic signals and perform passive positioning. , now, the first time the target makes the call, it's the best way for them to passively locate.

"The time is too short to locate!"

"Everyone, don't be busy, right? Anyway, the target is going to Airspace No. [-]." On the early warning aircraft, a radar officer of the Saudi Air Force couldn't help but say, his words seemed sincere, and seemed to be sarcasm.

These Westerners have shown their ugliest side to the fullest, even the Saudi radar officers on the early warning aircraft can feel it. In contrast, the Easterners are sincere.

The American advisor blushed and said nothing.

Exercise continues.

A few minutes later, there was a voice on the radio.

"The Typhoon fighter is already in place."

Later, another voice sounded: "The wild dogs are already in place. In order to prevent you from being fooled again, I will extend the radio call time to ten seconds this time. You should be able to determine my location."

The electronic equipment on the E-3 early warning aircraft can accurately calculate the location of the radio call after ten seconds of talking. This is a secret of the US Air Force. How did this pilot nicknamed Wild Dog know?Moreover, the other party's English is very fluent, just like a mother tongue?
The U.S. adviser was somewhat skeptical, but at this time, the Saudi radar officer had already spoken: "The targets have been identified, all of them are within the predetermined airspace, and the exercise can continue!"

From the beginning of visual air combat, the sun was the best helper for pilots. Later, when entering the missile era, pilots still like to fly to the sun, and then throw off the missiles that follow behind, and let the missiles fly to the sun, just like Hou Yi. Same as shooting the sun.

Goggles do a good job of blocking the sun by now, but pilots still like to take advantage of the sun.

Now, the Typhoon fighter plane with its back to the sun has the best view. The sun’s light will not cause harm, but it will also be a helper for the pilot. The aircraft on the opposite side will reflect a dazzling light under the sunlight!

The typhoon pilot scanned the opposite side fiercely, and in a professional way, divided the front hemisphere into nine airspaces, searched little by little, and at the same time approached rapidly.

In order to get from No. 1.2 airspace to No. [-] airspace faster, he also turned on the afterburner extravagantly, let the fighter enter supersonic speed and then turn it off, so that he can maintain the supersonic cruise of Mach [-].

This, of course, is to reach the target airspace faster and enter the visual range for fighting.

No matter how good the stealth performance of the Eastern plane is, there are still many flaws that cannot be made up, especially the engine!The advanced fighter of the East uses the imitation of the J79 imported from Da Mao. The thrust-to-weight ratio can reach 8, which is not bad. It can't compare with the EJ200 engine of the Typhoon fighter.

In addition, the Typhoon fighter uses a duck-style layout, and its instantaneous hovering ability, climbing ability, etc. are unmatched. Once it enters the fighting within the visual range, the target will only have a dead end!
He was eagerly looking for the target, but he didn't find it along the way. When he arrived at the third airspace, he still didn't find anything. The entire airspace was empty!
Not good, fooled!

If the confrontation does not set rules, and both sides show their talents, there may be many tactics. Now, the pilots of the Typhoon fighter jets require to set rules, which just gives the opponent a chance!

If you think about it with your toes, you can know that the Typhoon fighter will definitely fly all the way, and take a straight line from the No. [-] airspace to the No. [-] airspace. So, how could the pilot nicknamed Wild Dog obediently stay in the No. [-] airspace and wait? Or even head-to-head?

They must have gone in circles!Maybe, now they have gone around to the No. [-] airspace?Then fly over from the No. [-] airspace, so I will suffer a big loss!
Thinking of this, he felt the sweat on his back suddenly bursting out.

At this moment, the familiar voice sounded again in the earphone: "Danger, it has been locked, danger, it has been locked!"

"Damn it, it's not fair, it's not fair!" The pilot cursed loudly: "Every time it's a sneak attack, I demand a fight with dignity, and I demand a fight with J-31A!"

"No, it's fair. When our US military instructors are instructing, they also ask to end the battle as far as possible within the beyond visual range, so as to reflect the advantages of our fighters. We have a stealth machine and we want to fight. Isn't that a fool? ?” A voice came over the radio.

"Who are you? How can you say that?"

"I'm Salman."
