Chapter 583: Follow closely

"How did he do that?"
"Sure enough, I knew Chen Rui could do it."
"If the performance of the aircraft is not enough, then we have to win by surprise." Here, the visitors from the Han country are already excited. After Chen Rui took off, their hearts were still up and down, thinking that Chen Rui wanted to go to heaven. The abused, but now, the situation has been reversed. The powerful radar of the opponent’s Tomcat fighter did not work. Your own MiG 21 fighter has been close to the opponent within visual distance, and Chen Rui has successfully circled Behind the other party!
This means that Chen Rui is already invincible. As long as the current Chen Rui turns on the radar and locks on the opponent, he will win.
Wait, does Chen Rui have radar?
Now, if Chen Rui turns on his PP21-M radar, then Chen Rui will definitely be able to win, but Chen Rui does not. If you win in this way, it's too simple.
He could already see the chrysanthemum of the Tomcat fighter.
"Cross, hurry up, look around and throw the radar aside first." Brown shouted.
For two-seater pilots, in addition to the radar officer operating the radar in the back seat, in close air combat, the radar officer can also help the pilot to observe the surrounding airspace, which is equivalent to an extra eye.
At this moment, the airliner has already flown over one's head. If there is a plane under the belly of the airliner, then the other party will definitely be chasing its ass!
Thinking of this, Brown anxiously ordered his radar officer to be bitten behind his ass, so what did he care about the radar?
For fighter jets, the field of view is limited. Both pilots are flying forward. They can only see the field of vision in front of them. If they want to see the back, they have two options.
Brown looked at the rearview mirrors on either side of him.
That’s right, like the rearview mirror of a car, there are two slender rearview mirrors on both sides of the cockpit glass compartment in the front of the Tomcat fighter. This rearview mirror also functions as a car rearview mirror. The same, used to supplement the blind spot for the pilot.
You can see from the structure of the fighter jet. Behind the pilot is blocked by the ejection seat, and there is a big blind spot behind. In order to observe the enemy aircraft during a fight, you must ensure that you have a good rear view at all times. The rearview mirror Basically, it is the most basic and simple auxiliary method.
However, if the fighter itself does not have a good rear view when it is designed, then it is useless to have a rearview mirror. For example, the MiG-21 has a huge dorsal fin behind it. You can't see anything, and you have to block it with a rearview mirror. So, simply Just installed a rear-view periscope.
Of course, this thing is actually better than nothing. Even if there is a rearview mirror, the average pilot is still used to frequently turning his head and looking backwards. Just like a car's rearview mirror has a blind spot, it is still very useful in a dog fight with a tail bite. Useful, at least as a supplementary method for observing enemy aircraft behind the side
If you really want to grasp the opponent's movement, you usually have to turn your head and look at it. The rearview mirror can see something suspicious for a moment and then immediately start maneuvering.
The other is to use technology to make up for it. Like the F-35, the rearward field of view looks quite limited, but the F-35 is equipped with EODAS, which provides a 360-degree field of view. The image can be projected onto the helmet eyepiece or converted into an intelligence display. On the MFD, in a sense, it sees through the fuselage, with no blind spots at all. In a sense, it is the aircraft with the best view.
Now, Brown took a glance from the corner of his eye in the rearview mirror and saw nothing. Then, he began to turn his head.
The two crew members have to cooperate and understand each other. After a long time of matching, the two have long been in good spirits. For example, now, Brown is turning to the left, and Cross is turning back. The two do their best. , Looking at the rear fuselage, through the wings, the fuselage looks backwards, but there is nothing.
That is how the matter?
Is it because I am suspicious?
Brown slammed the joystick and kicked the rudder to death. The Tomcat spread its wings and tilted sideways, completing a small radius side turn.
His movements were fierce, and soon, in the huge overload, he felt that his eyes were going to be dim.
Now, they looked back hard and couldn't see anything. Either there was nothing behind the plane, or the opponent's fighter was too close to them, almost directly behind the ass.
If you want to drive, you will feel it. The rearview mirrors also have blind spots. If there is something behind the car, the rearview mirrors on both sides will definitely not be visible.
If the other party can just stick tightly under the belly of the passenger plane, it may stick tightly to the back of their own fuselage. Body blocking is an absolute blind spot.
Don't be afraid, as long as you do a maneuver, you can get rid of the opponent!
The aircraft in front is active, and the aircraft in the back is passive. When the aircraft in front starts to maneuver, the aircraft in the back must have lag. Therefore, if someone is behind him, then Brown only needs to make such an ordinary side turn. You can see the enemy plane behind.
But now, he couldn't see anything. Behind his side, it was empty and there was nothing. Now he is flying at an altitude of 8,000 meters, and he has already left the trailing area.
Could it be that I just got worried?
Catch up to see?
Thinking of this, he opened the afterburner.
"How did he do it? God!" At this time, in front of the base's radar screen, everyone was stunned to see all this, and everyone couldn't believe it.
Yes, Chen Rui is behind Tomcat.
Chen Rui drove the MiG-21 closely behind the opponent, and when the opponent turned sideways, Chen Rui also turned sideways and stayed behind the Tomcat.
However, no one knows how Chen Rui did it. In Eagle Country’s own test, the MiG-21 only took care of the high-altitude and high-speed. Although it is also the best in the second-generation aircraft in terms of maneuverability, it depends on its small size. It is mobile and flexible, but it is definitely not comparable to the Tomcat of the third generation aircraft.
The Tomcat just turned sideways, but he didn't get rid of the MiG 21. Why?
"I guess, he must have put the speed brake just now." At this moment, Qin Guan spoke.
Qin Guan never flew a fighter plane, but in later generations, he also played air combat simulation games. For a small aircraft like MiG 21, there are many ways to improve the flexibility of turning, such as putting air brakes. It is one of the tricks, the speed drops suddenly, and the turning radius is of course smaller.
On a computer, it's just a matter of a few keys. In actual operation, Chen Rui doesn't know how many buttons to press and how many switches to turn. His agility is simply too great, that is, with the airplane. Integrated.
Brown in the sky can't see Chen Rui, but the radar on the ground can see Chen Rui's MiG 21, closely following the Tomcat. Is this still necessary?
Chen Rui must have won.
