Red Soviet Union Chapter 145

?<=""> The Tu-22 is a supersonic bomber designed and produced by the Tupolev Design Bureau, and it is also the first supersonic bomber equipped by the Soviet Union. It is planned to replace the Tu-15 bomber. The supersonic flight performance can break through the air defense network and air interception, and throw nuclear weapons on strategic targets in Europe.

However, when this type of bomber is in service, its performance is not very reliable, and its range is also unsatisfactory. Especially after the aircraft is filled with fuel and missiles, it cannot perform supersonic flight at all. Even if the speed reaches Mach 1.5 when it reaches the target, it cannot be effectively avoided at that time. Interception of NATO fighter jets and anti-aircraft missiles.

Therefore, this bomber was only a small amount in the Soviet Union's equipment sequence. Until the disintegration of the Soviet Union, only three hundred were equipped, and a large number of them were exported. The Soviet Union needed a new generation of supersonic bombers to replace Tu-16 and Tu- twenty two.

Due to the absolute status of the Tupolev Design Bureau in the development of the Soviet Union's large aircraft, they did not take it seriously, but only made minor repairs on the basis of the Tu-22 to increase the thrust of the engine. At the same time, the Sukhoi Design Bureau responded first and designed the famous t-4 bomber.

Now the Tupolev Design Bureau is in a hurry. The top and bottom are like ants on a hot pot. In the end, they can only tear down and start over: overturn the foundation of the Tu-22 and redesign a brand new supersonic bomber. As a result, the Tu-22m backfire, a brand-new variable-sweep wing bomber, was born that made Americans tremble, almost born to attack the US aircraft carrier formation!

Until later generations, there are still rumors that Huaxia wants to buy Backfire, just to fight the American aircraft carrier.

Now, though not yet backfire, just blindfolds, these bombers. Also a nightmare for the U.S. Navy.

The blindfold of this flying regiment contained the entire American aircraft carrier formation, and the Tomcat fighter did not rescue the f-15 formation that was in distress at this time.

It's not just the F-15s being ravaged by the MiG-25s. At this time, America's greatest crisis. It was the AWACS aircraft hovering in southern Hokkaido!

The ec-121 early warning aircraft, the mainstay of the U.S. Air Force before the e-3 did not enter service, is in tension.

The air force on the front line is being strangled by the MiG-25 fleet. Those hateful Soviets are actually using the tactics of sneak attacks! If communication is restored, then you can alert your own air force!

The communication was severely disrupted, even the early warning aircraft, and the contact between the early warning aircraft and the Yokota base behind was intermittent.

If the data link system is perfect. Now you can rely on the data link to provide yourself with targets. Unfortunately, the data link in this era is also very primitive and has limited anti-interference ability.

"Continue to fly north!" Finally, the commander of the early warning aircraft issued another order. Only by moving further north can the communication be restored. As long as the communication is restored, the air force can be commanded to fight!

"Report, suspicious target found!" At this moment. an early warning officer shouted.

On the radar screen, two targets appeared in the east, at this time. The other party is climbing and flying towards their own side. Did the Soviets deploy a field airfield on Zeluo Island?

"Three hundred distance!" The AWACS commander glanced at the signal, but did not immediately panic. Three hundred kilometers was not too close.

"Let our **** fighter jet intercept immediately!"

Accompanying this early warning aircraft, there were also two plaster flag F-4 fighter jets accompanying the escort, and the two fighter jets that received the order immediately threw away the auxiliary fuel tanks<="l">. Go east to intercept.

They didn't know that they would face two fighter jets that could not be intercepted!

Two plaster flag F-4 fighter jets. Turn on the afterburner and fly towards the direction of the target. The nose of the radar is on, ready to lock on to the target and launch its own Sparrow missile.

"The target is still climbing!" In the early warning aircraft, the early warning personnel looked at the data of the two targets and couldn't help but get nervous.

The altitude has exceeded 15,000, and it is still climbing!

The commander also realized that something was wrong at this time. Looking at the climb speed, it looks like that kind of perverted fighter. No, it definitely isn't. Interceptors, the cost of construction and flight must be astronomical, just like their own sr71, the number will definitely not be many.

As far as the existing information is concerned, there are only two MiG-25 flying regiments in the entire Far East. The ones flying from the east are definitely not from the Kamchatka Peninsula. The MiG-25 does not have such a long range. It was definitely not a MiG-25 that took off from its base!

"The height is more than 18,000, and it is still climbing!" At this moment, the voice of the early warning officer was already filled with fear.

The height is more than 18,000, and it is still climbing! Needless to say, it must be a MiG-25!

"Quick, turn around immediately and fly south!" shouted the commander, who banged on the front cockpit glass and told the pilot ahead.

Run, if you don't run at this time, it will be too late. The height of the opponent has already reached 20,000. The two F-4s sent in front have no ability to intercept!

Running in which direction? The north is fighting, the west is the Sea of ​​Japan, and the east is the direction from which the target came. You can only fly south! As long as you fly over the Zeqing Strait and reach the sky over Honshu, you will be safe!

"Idiot, lower the altitude, lower the altitude!" the commander continued to shout.

On the radar screen, the two planes were rapidly approaching, two hundred kilometers away! Moreover, the other party is still accelerating continuously. If they fly at the speed of Mach 3, they will definitely not be able to fly over the Zeqing Strait, and they will be caught up.

At this time, the commander had regretted that he had just ventured north. This was a conspiracy of the Soviets!

Although the higher the flight, the smaller the air resistance and the greater the maximum speed. However, no matter how fast you fly, you can't fly the MiG-25. At this time, it is safest to get into the low altitude. !

At least the electronic technology of the Soviets is not good. The MiG-25 at high altitude has a weak ability to shoot down.

I have never encountered this kind of danger. Every time the ec-121 is well protected, especially since 1969, I ran up to the sky to be arrogant and was beaten down by the **** MiG-21. After that, the route of the ec-121 was strictly planned every time.

Now, feeling the threat of death, the commander's voice was full of tears, and the faces of the others in the cabin were also pale.

This is not a small early warning aircraft of the e-2 category. There are only five or six people on it. There are twenty-six crew members on this early warning aircraft! When necessary, it can be on duty continuously for 24 hours!

"One hundred kilometers away!" Another alarm sounded.

Americans, here I come! High in the sky, Andre was also a burst of excitement that could not be concealed. (To be continued.)<=""><=""><="">
