Red Soviet Union

USS Chicago heavy cruiser.

Fire, fire now! This order was not only passed on to one's own fighter jets, but all the escorting warships were given the power to fire!

Lieutenant Colonel Johnson clenched his fists and gave the order: Brass Knight Launch!

The U.S. Navy's first-generation long-range heavy air defense missiles also assumed the mission of protecting the airspace of the aircraft carrier formation. Now, the two Soviet planes who came to make trouble cannot let them go back alive!

With the order of Lieutenant Colonel Johnson, the large SPS-43 search radar at the rear of the warship was activated at full power. At this time, the MiG-25 had already flown over its own head, and the search radar could easily capture all the data of the target. , With the operation of the radar hand, the SPS-30 tracking radar took over the baton, and the circular radar standing on the second deck continued to track the target.

On the huge launch pad in front, the launch pads of the two brass knights that defied the sky turned and aimed in the direction of the two flying fighters. Then, various launch data were loaded into the missiles.

Two salvos, one target, said Lieutenant Colonel Johnson.

Today's warships do not have a vertical launch nest for anti-saturation attacks like the MK41. The dual-arm launcher can only launch two missiles at a time. For the sake of safety, to accurately hit the target, generally two missiles are aimed at one target.

Time passed quickly, and the well-trained naval personnel shortened the launch time to the shortest possible time. However, the response of the electronic system also took time. It took 57 seconds from issuing the order to preparing for the launch!

Launch! Following the order, a launch operator's finger pressed the red launch button.

On the front deck, two missiles ignited instantly, and the blazing flames covered the front deck.

With a length of 11.6 meters, a diameter of 0.7 meters, and a weight of more than 3,500 kilograms, this air defense missile is comparable to the later heavy anti-ship missiles. At the same time, this missile also uses the technology that is now recognized as a long-range air defense missile, such as a ramjet!

The body of the Brass Knight missile is a cylinder, which is composed of two stages connected in series. The first stage is a solid booster, and the tail is equipped with a stable tail. The second stage uses a ramjet engine with a length of 0.71 meters. A liquid fuel made of a mixture of kerosene and a volatile oil.

The solid boosters ignited first, and the fiery wake scorched the deck. Since it was modified from the position of the deck gun, it was not considered to arrange such a large anti-aircraft missile during the construction, and the tail flame could not be eliminated, so it could only be allowed to burn.

Fortunately, the personnel on the warship have long been used to it and hide far away. If they stay here at this time, it must have become a barbecue.

The solid booster quickly pushed the missile to a speed of Mach 0.8, and it began to fall off. Then, the missile shook again, a hot wake appeared, and the ramjet ignited!

This missile adopts a rotary wing type aerodynamic layout. The control surface is located in the middle of the projectile body, and the rear part of the projectile body is the tail, which are arranged in an X shape and are in the same plane. At this time, the central cone of the projectile head is compressing air, and the annular air intake of the ramjet around the cone is pressing a steady stream of air into the engine to participate in combustion.

Ramjet! It can save the weight of carrying the oxidant and simplify the composition of the engine. Almost all anti-aircraft missiles of this era use ramjets, such as the British Sea Javelin, such as the later Soviet Sam-6.

Poke the hornet's nest! Americans actually fired missiles! Hearing the sound of the rudimentary radar warning receiver in the headset, Andre couldn't help feeling depressed for a while.

The taste of being bitten by a missile is unpleasant. Although I am driving a MiG-25 fighter, if it is at an altitude of 30,000 meters, even if it is an altitude of 25,000 kilometers,

I am sure that I am not afraid of anything, and the Americans cannot threaten themselves.

But now, he has only climbed to 18,000, and he is only 40 kilometers away from the American aircraft carrier formation, and he is still within the killing radius of their anti-aircraft missiles!

what is coming? Andre thought quickly in his heart, at this distance, beagles and tartars would definitely not be able to fly so far, either the phoenix launched by the American carrier aircraft, or the brass knight launched by the naval ship!

In short, it is a radar-guided missile, not an infrared missile, that's all.

The MiG-25 cockpit has inherited the characteristics of the usual Soviet fighters, without any rearward vision, and Andre can only judge by the sound of the rudimentary radar warning receiver.

At this time, two brass knights are flying fast, and the ramjet engine endows the missile with a high-speed capability exceeding Mach two. When the distance is close to ten kilometers, the SPG-49 target illumination radar is activated, which is a monopulse radar. , continuous wave irradiation can be carried out, so that the missile end can be self-guided.

As the missile approached, the sound of the radar warning receiver began to become more rapid.

Andrei counted in his mind, ten, nine, eight, seven. When the count reached zero, he pushed the operating lever hard and pushed the rudder. At the same time, the other hand controlled the release of the platinum bar.

To deal with radar-guided missiles, you need to maneuver to get rid of them when the opponent is about to come. With the interference of platinum bars, as long as the timing is right, getting rid of them is quite easy!

After all, the current missile maneuverability is limited, and the long-range missile has a smaller overload due to its large size and weight. Moreover, whether it is a semi-active seeker or an active seeker, the electronic technology is far from AIM. -120 level, so it's too easy to get rid of a few air-to-air missiles in this era!

The huge steel fighter, under the operation of Andre, made a 4G overload steering action. At the same time, the released platinum bars flew all over the sky, and the two huge brass knight missiles that caught up behind were all here. In an instant, the goal was lost.

Watching the two huge missiles fly past his side and fly a few kilometers away before he chose to self-destruct, Andre was also a little stunned. If he didn't dodge in time, he would be hit by such a missile. A hit, even if it is within the killing radius, is very dangerous.

032, 032, how is the situation? Alexander's question came through the earphones.

Just now, the two planes were flying in formation and were about to speed up to leave. Andre made a maneuver, and the speed slowed down. Alexander noticed the fire in the distant sky and immediately became nervous.

Everything is normal. Andre's answer was calm: 027, keep climbing!

Having escaped this missile attack, the long-range anti-aircraft missiles of the American aircraft carrier formation were out of reach, and they could form a formation with Alexander and return calmly.

However, at this moment, the sound of the radar warning receiver came from the headset again, and he was locked again!
