"God, Firefly?! Is it the third-generation J-10 fighter equipped by the Chinese Air Force? They dare to sell this fighter to Argentina. Don't they know that this is breaking the balance of regional military power?!"
"Now is not the time to talk about these. The Silver Birds have one person and one aircraft, using alternating attack tactics. The Fireflies also have a canard aerodynamic layout, and their maneuverability is not inferior to that of the Typhoon. You must be careful."
"clear!"
The highly confidential radio communication channel was filled with the exchanges between the two Royal Air Force pilots, Snow Fox and Silver Bird.
At this moment, as he saw the true face of Al Fang's strange fighter plane, the contempt and anger in Xuehu's heart disappeared, leaving only solemnity and caution.
Contempt, it depends on who you are!
If it were a tattered A-4 Skyhawk, he would definitely maintain the proper attitude of a Royal Air Force pilot, ravaging the other party in his beloved Typhoon, and at the same time ridicule the other party unscrupulously in the public channel, destroying the other party's heart.
However, the reality is somewhat different.
The FC-20 'Firefly' from the East is by no means an existence that can be bullied casually. This legendary fighter that embodies the efforts of China Chengdu Aircraft Company is not inferior to the Typhoon in terms of maneuverability and comprehensive flight performance.
Underestimating a standard third-generation Firefly that was famous for its mobility was simply asking for death. Snow Fox would not make such a stupid mistake.
Be cautious, seize the loopholes, look for opportunities, and ultimately defeat the opponent in one fell swoop. You must not insult the Royal Air Force's highest honor.
"boom!"
The sweet and pleasant sound of Liutai Industrial Flower resounded through the sky.
Now, in the blue sky at a height of 40,000 feet, four fighter planes pulled away from each other after performing traditional etiquette, and one after another tore off their polite clothes, each showed a ferocious fighting posture, and entered into the most dangerous close combat.
Both sides drew a beautiful and elegant arc, giving full play to their mobility, trying to seize the attacking position and find their opponents.
The traditional combat air combat with hedging etiquette is quite similar to that of medieval knights and is spread throughout the world. It is different from the close combat air combat training that emphasizes the discovery of the enemy first.
Zhou Hai was fully focused, his face was calm, and his deep eyes were cast to the surrounding sky. He easily locked on the No. 91 Typhoon fighter jet with the complex Royal Air Force flag pattern on its fuselage, pushed up the throttle, pulled the lever and stepped on the rudder, and swept towards the opponent.
"Buzz!"
As the WS-10A 'Taihang' outputs more surging power, the gray-painted single-seat green dragon is like a dragon with a low aura. The advanced DSI air inlet crazily swallows the thin air at high altitudes, controlled by the telex system. The controlled mid-range movable canards on the leading edge deflect to the optimal angle, no more, no less, to achieve ultimate aerodynamic efficiency.
The bee-eye helmet displays comprehensive flight parameters under combat conditions, presents the signals acquired by the Identification Friend or Foe system, and gives detailed marks in red and green colors.
attack!
The best defense is offense.
The thin-skinned and big-bodied fighter is born to attack, and has no intention of defending at all.
In an extremely dangerous close-range air battle, a blind defense means giving away the initiative to others.
"Want to cause trouble for me? Man, you've got the wrong person."
Snow Fox, who was controlling the No. 91 Typhoon fighter jet, relied on his rich air combat experience to instantly understand the meaning of the Argentine Firefly fighter jet's flight movements and sneered on his face.
As an outstanding soldier who has participated in many wars around the world, with the rank of major, he not only has a gorgeous resume, but also ranks 130th on the Red Flag military exercise ranking list, fighting against top pilots from all over the world. , has accumulated extremely rich air combat experience, and is undoubtedly among the top pilots of the Royal Air Force.
Although it was the first time he encountered the extremely unfamiliar FC-20 Firefly fighter jet, Xuehu was confident enough to fly the Typhoon fighter jet to defeat this sudden opponent.
The majesty of the Royal Air Force cannot be violated!
The honor of a top pilot cannot be desecrated!
Without fear, he pushed up the throttle to reach the top, tilted the fuselage to the left with the lever, lowered the nose of the aircraft, gave up the insignificant height advantage, and pulled out a beautiful and fast arc, cutting straight to the inner corner, trying to bring out the best of Typhoon The excellent performance of the fighter plane seizes the attack position.
"boom!"
Two EJ200 mid-thrust turbofan engines at maximum thrust erupted with a surging thrust of up to 12,240 kilograms. The inside of the tail nozzle shot out high-temperature tail flames like volcanoes, extremely hot, and bloomed with delicate and beautiful red flowers. A body of more than ten tons provides a source of power.
Aerodynamic rudder surfaces such as forward canards and ailerons, as well as seamless flaps, are fully functioning. The Typhoon and Snow Fox, which perform offensive maneuvers, both bear high flight overloads.
Qingjiao, which was flying at a low altitude, made a sharp turn and then raised its head to attack. Typhoon No. 91, which had a height advantage, actively gave up its altitude advantage of more than 100 meters, lowering its height and changing position while gaining mobility and flight performance. Improvement is also on the offensive.
Height, this physical data has an important impact on the overall performance of the fighter aircraft.
The higher the altitude, the lower the air density, which reduces lift and insufficient air intake, resulting in reduced performance.
On the contrary, the lower the altitude, the higher the air density, which in turn provides higher lift and higher performance.
The best altitude for close combat is generally between 4,000 meters and 8,000 meters.
Nowadays, Qingjiao and Typhoon are both equipped with air superiority weapons and are not empty.
The air at an altitude of 12,000 meters is thin, and coupled with its own mounting status, if it makes a mistake in judgment and performs a maneuver with a large overload, it will rapidly consume its own energy, which will lead to a decrease in mobility and the loss of a favorable position in the battle.
"Interesting, he seems to be a master."
Zhou Hai noticed the behavior of the No. 91 Typhoon fighter. He narrowed his eyes and showed a smile. He turned on the afterburner device with his left hand, pulled the lever to the right and fully ruddered, then gave up the current climbing and attacking posture.
"boom!"
The Taihang turbofan engine entered the afterburner state and exploded with a maximum thrust of 12.5 tons. The silver-white round tail nozzle shot out a slender orange-red high-temperature tail flame. The performance and maneuverability of the Qingjiao fighter fully loaded with weapons once again reached a new level and rolled on the right side. , brewing a new offensive line, and swiping directly at the Typhoon trying to gain attack position at a faster speed.
quick!
Faster!
Both are at the third and a half generation level. The comprehensive performance of Qingjiao and Typhoon are comparable. There is no generation difference, but there are certain differences in subtle aspects.
The most important thing is the duck wings!
As the king in the field of canard aerodynamic layout, the technology accumulated by Chengdu Loma is definitely not comparable to that of Eurofighter. The aerodynamic layout of the canards between the two parties is slightly different. The Typhoon canard is relatively forward and belongs to the forward distance, while the Qingjiao is It belongs to the middle distance and reaches an optimal moderate state.
