The sky above the "Perth" became a battlefield for the confrontation between the red and blue sides. Both sides were relatively restrained. They fought back and forth, biting the tail and biting the tail. They all showed their best skills.
However, no matter how the fight is fought, no one will fire the first shot easily, even though they are all fighters armed to the teeth.
After a fierce battle, the gap gradually became apparent, and Shi Leilei's Flying Shark Team gained the upper hand. The main reason is that there are large differences in the performance of fighter aircraft.
The F/A-18E/F is undoubtedly an excellent fighter, but it is not an excellent air superiority fighter. Up to now, this fighter has evolved into a multi-purpose fighter that focuses on ground and sea strikes.
Relatively speaking, the J-15's air superiority combat performance has never changed. The main task of this fighter is to compete for air superiority, ensure this foundation, and then strengthen its ground and sea strike capabilities.
The gap in technical level between the pilots is very small. They are all elites in their respective naval flying units. Moreover, the training level of the Red Army is on the rise. On the other hand, the simulated Blue Army has been declining in recent years.
In order to take care of Zhuang Xiaoying's filming, Li Hai kept leaning towards the battlefield, while he kept an eye on the "Perth". A few minutes later, Lehi discovered that the "Perth" had made no other movements except to keep sailing rapidly eastward.
The Coast Guard law enforcement helicopter will arrive in about fifteen minutes. Before they arrive, the large insect fleet must be "killed" or driven away.
However, the red and blue sides will obviously not be able to tell the winner for a while.
Li Hai thought for a while, adjusted to the combat wave number, and immediately heard a bunch of voice interaction messages.
"Turn around! Turn around!"
"I bit him!"
"Watch out for the left wing!"
"I'll cover you!"
…
The fierce battle is in full swing, but our side has no intention of sending reinforcement fighter planes, which means that the simulated blue army has not continued to send fighter planes. Both sides had a tacit understanding to control the scale of the confrontation. Four versus five, nine of the world's highest-level carrier-based fighter jets engaged in a dogfight, which can be said to be the first time in many years.
The leader of the red team is Lieutenant Colonel Shi Leilei, a well-known member of the Flying Shark Force. The leader of the simulation blue team is Lieutenant Colonel Jason, who has participated in many actual combats and is known as the "Navy Eagle". In close combat, where several movements can change in one second, they all demonstrated strong command and combat capabilities.
From the perspective of a bystander, this is undoubtedly a wonderful dog fight scene.
Li Hai's mind was not on this, and he simulated the Blue Army dispatching five F/A-18E/Fs to support the "Perth", indicating that the "Perth" had obtained very important electronic intelligence!
We cannot let the "Perth" escape.
At this time, the situation in the air confrontation changed. Shi Leilei, who had been resisting the pressure of two F/A-18E/Fs and had the upper hand, was suddenly flanked by a third enemy plane. The situation took a turn for the worse. Shi Leilei Forced to give up the advantageous position and dive to evade.
Li Hai didn't see it, but Zhuang Xiaoying did. She shouted: "We have a plane that is under siege!"
Li Hai quickly turned his head and looked over. Shi Leilei's position was close to his side. The other fighter planes were struggling with their opponents. The third enemy plane that attacked Shi Leilei was a master. He flicked his tail neatly and used F/A- The 18E/F's better ability to circle in time threw away the opponent and gained at least five seconds.
The right plane was too late for reinforcements.
Shi Leilei's situation is very dangerous.
Li Hai didn't hesitate at all. He turned on the afterburner and made a sharp dive - he had a height advantage. The most important thing was that Shi Leilei seemed to dive in his direction intentionally.
Maybe Shi Leilei expected Li Hai to react.
"I'm locked, damn, three radars are locked on me!" Shi Leilei cursed and quickly rolled and threw jamming bombs.
The battle communications were full of swear words, which showed how critical the situation was. At this time, it was also exposed that the actual combat experience of our military pilots was at a disadvantage compared to the simulated Blue Army pilots. Since the war to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, our army has not experienced a decent air battle in more than sixty years.
Looking back at the simulated Blue Army, they are either at war or on their way to war. Moreover, they are the only navy in the world with the most experience in aircraft carrier operations.
It was obvious that the third enemy plane that suddenly came over showed extremely superb flying skills. The pilot of this enemy plane was none other than Lieutenant Colonel Jason, known as the "Navy Eagle".
If analyzed from the beginning, it is not difficult to judge that the Big Bug aircraft group may have used tactics to show weakness to the enemy before, and then concentrated their superior forces to attack one of the enemy aircraft when an opportunity arose. This important task was performed by Jason himself, so in the previous confrontations, he deliberately behaved well to make his opponents relax their vigilance.
At this time, it suddenly broke out and seized the advantage of five seconds.
The balance of victory quickly tilted towards the simulated blue army. It was not a victory of "shooting down" a plane, but an overall victory in this battle.
If Shi Leilei is "shot down", then our army will only have three J-15s left, simulating that the Blue Army has an absolute advantage in strength.
Losing one battle means losing the entire battle.
When Li Hai saw that his instructor (Shi Leilei was Li Hai's instructor during the Flying Shark training) was in such a dangerous situation, he suddenly became extremely angry!
In a very short period of time, he chose the most effective way - to rush directly towards Jason and block Jason's front. The consequence of this is that he will be trapped by three F/A18E/Fs, and there will be no possibility of breaking out.
You know, the maximum distance between several fighters at this time is only five kilometers!
Of course, the effect will be obvious. Shi Leilei can get rid of the pursuit very calmly and has enough time to move from a disadvantageous position to an advantageous position.
"Grab the ejection ring. If I tell you to jump, just pull hard, you know!" Li Hai yelled.
Everyone can hear this sentence, including Shi Leilei.
"Got it!" Zhuang Xiaoying was excited and grabbed the ejection ring with one hand, but her other hand still held the camera and kept shooting, taking this opportunity to capture a close-up of the F/A-18E/F!
Perhaps due to the influence of last night's battle, the girl had blind trust in Li Hai, and in her opinion, the current situation was much better than last night, so she was not very scared, but rather excited.
Li Hai had no time to tell her that this time she met a powerful enemy, the real opponent and the only opponent. Last night's third mock Blues wasn't even an appetizer. To put it bluntly, all the fighter planes of the third simulated blue army taking off were not enough for HNA to fight, so there was no need for the Air Force brother to take action.
Moreover, the simulated blue army has a numerical advantage at this time.
Li Hai rushed over, then turned the fuselage sideways and blocked Jason's front. What's the distance? It's less than three kilometers. In other words, if he doesn't maneuver, he will hit Li Hai. He will either maneuver or open fire and shoot Li Hai down.
But no matter what he did, Jason could no longer keep his lock on Shi Leilei.
It was like two cars chasing each other at high speed on the road, and suddenly a blue light truck drove sideways and blocked the middle. That's right, the JH-7A's size is basically equivalent to the blue light truck running in the city.
Shi Leilei seized this critical moment to pull up the nose of the plane and climb at a high angle. At this point, his danger was basically eliminated.
Li Hai was trapped in a tight siege. Jason's eyes were red and angry. He quickly changed his target and was about to attack Li Hai. Friendly aircraft on the left and right wings surrounded him, making it difficult for Li Hai to fly.
"Beautiful, beautiful, my engine stopped, beautiful, beautiful, here is..."
