Chapter 1736: Take EF-111 surgery

"Let the navy guys know that their AWG-9 radar is useless if it looks far away and will be interfered by us at any time." Inside the EF111 electronic jammer, the electronic warfare officer on the right said Howard.
The Navy’s EA-6B requires four operators, which makes their aircraft quite crowded, looking like a fly with a big head, while the Air Force’s EF-111 has only two pilots. They are side by side. Sitting in the large flight cockpit.
This cockpit is also very peculiar. It is open from the side to allow the pilots to enter and exit. Both sides are opened outwards. When ejected, the entire cockpit is ejected together. If it reaches the sea, it can temporarily act as a Noah. The Ark, of course, its ejection must be quite complicated, and the success rate is very low.
Although there are only two people, the one on the left is the pilot. According to the Air Force theory, the pilot should manage the flight. Therefore, all electronic jamming systems are performed by the electronic warfare officer on the right.
The EA-6B looks quite complicated. Even the underside of the wings are jamming pods, but the EF-111 is quite neat. Its appearance is not different from the ordinary F-111, except for the vertical tail. In addition to an additional drum antenna, its equipment is mainly in the belly, where it was originally the location of the internal bomb bay. Now it is the most convenient to transform into an electronic warfare system. If you turn on the canoe-like antenna If you cover it, you can see the dense array of interference antennas inside.
As a powerful electronic jammer, its main system is the electronic jamming system code-named AN/ALQ-99E. This system has ten transmitters with power between 1000-3000 watts. The antennas of these transmitters , It can be turned, that is to say, when it flies in any direction, it can interfere with the target, of course, this also depends on the operation of the electronic warfare officer.
The operation of an electronic warfare officer is quite complicated. Each jamming transmitter can be independently programmed. The electronic warfare officer needs to input the program through the keyboard in the cockpit. This is definitely an individual task. Of course, if you want to make tricks , Is to prepare in advance. Before boarding the plane, use flight planning equipment to save the data on the tape. During the flight, new conditions will appear at any time, so their fingers must be extremely flexible.
This task has been awaited for a long time. The Navy and the Air Force have always been at odds. Therefore, the Navy’s mission system originally had a special jamming program for the AWG-9 radar, but there was no opportunity to use it before. Now the red flag Military exercises are originally all kinds of confrontations. Since navy aircraft are participating, of course, we must let navy aircraft taste how to fight in an electromagnetic interference environment.
They were prepared long ago, and now, let the navy rush away. Although the pilots who operate the aircraft are Han Chinese pilots, the aircraft is the tomcat of the navy. Now they are as happy as they have defeated the navy.
"AWACS reports that they are coming to us." At this moment, the pilot spoke. Because the tasks of electronic warfare officers are too cumbersome, the pilots still undertake a lot of tasks. For example, they are now warning electronic warfare officers.
what? The other party is here!
When the wing of the Tomcat fighter is swept back, it can sprint to a very high speed, because its resistance is the least. Now, Chen Rui and his wingman Wang Hongwei, the two are quickly coming in this direction!
"It's really troublesome. Did they find out?" Howard said: "We just pretended to be training airplanes and didn't need to talk to them."
Today is a training session before the exercise. In the airspace, the aircraft of the Red Army and the Blue Army will often pass by. Their appearance is no different from that of the F-111. Therefore, they can just fly pretendingly. Now, it's just as an ordinary electronic jammer familiar with the airspace that came to participate in the exercise.
"Okay." The pilot agreed with him, but there was always an ominous premonition that the other party would come to one's own side. Could it be that he knew that one's side was interfering?
If according to the real battle, electronic jammers and early warning aircraft are all strategic targets in air combat. They are the first to be destroyed. They have heard of the name of this ghost. Now, the ghost is coming towards them, will it give Are they looking for trouble?
The electronic officers in the airborne early warning aircraft have the same idea. This ghost is almost like eyes with eyes, and has flown to our side. Then, should we give up intelligence support or continue to insist? It's a pity, if it's a regular battle, there will definitely be fighters escorting them. As for now, there is nothing.
While they were hesitant, Chen Rui and Wang Hongwei had already flown over. Chen Rui spotted the guy with the big plate, and muttered: "Let's let you go first, I can't afford it if it breaks. "
The AWACS is modified with a Boeing airliner, and a large plate is added to it. This is very destructive to the aerodynamic layout. It can be said that it can fly normally, but if it is disturbed, it will stall at any time if it is not careful. .
This kind of early warning aircraft is very valuable, and there are still many people inside the aircraft. If it falls, Chen Rui will definitely be punished when he goes back, and it will even worsen the relationship between the two countries. He dare not use the early warning aircraft. Therefore, That electronic jammer is his food.
After all, this kind of aircraft was originally a bomber. Now it does not have any external plugs, and its maneuverability is still good. When it was developed that year, it was wearing the name of a fighter-bomber. It was intended to be used by the Navy as an interceptor and a powerful Tomcat fighter. The AWG-9 radar and Phoenix missile were originally developed for the F-111, but the Navy did not use it before they were used on the Tomcat.
Now, the electronic jammer of this kind of aircraft actually interferes with the Tomcat AWG-9 radar. What is it called? Do you boil beans and burn beans?
Chen Rui thought of this in his heart, and his eyes were already sneered. See how I play you!
The two Tomcat fighters were getting closer and closer. Suddenly, the Tomcat fighter turned and wiped toward the airspace in front of the EF-111!
"Oh, God!" Howard exclaimed. Almost at the same time, he felt his blood tumbling upwards. The pilot on the side had already pushed the joystick and began to dive. This is a standard evasive action, and you can never directly hit it. Go up? Chen Rui had planned it a long time ago, and he suddenly landed on the opponent's route. Then, he pulled the joystick to turn on the afterburner, and the fighter plane climbed towards the sky.
No, the electronic warfare antenna at the rear seems to be unavoidable! There is President Qin on it, Chen Rui, why are you still so bold?
