Chapter 1535: Change tactics

In later generations, fighters have a very important travel indicator, which is the vector engine.
The nozzle of an ordinary engine cannot be changed, it can only be jetted backwards. All the control is based on the rudder surface, while the vector engine, the nozzle of the engine can be changed, and there is a direct force. Under this kind of control, the aircraft The performance of the aircraft will be greatly improved, and it can make many maneuvers that ordinary fighters cannot make.
As for the vector engine, the Pegasus engine on the Sea Harrier fighter is definitely the first.
Of course, this kind of vector engine is not a real vector engine. The vector engine used in fighter jets can move up and down, or left and right, while the Pegasus can only move down. Even so, it can give the fighter unparalleled mobility. Performance.
After discovering that the tail was bitten by the Tomcat fighter, the can began to play the special performance of the Sea Harrier fighter. He pushed the joystick violently and then kicked the rudder. Relying on the energy accumulated by the dive, the Sea Harrier fighter suddenly got rid of it. In the dive state, he turned sharply to the right and started a special half-rolling action.
I saw this Sea Harrier fighter jet that was still in the dive state, the nozzle of the Pegasus engine quickly went down, and while rolling, it changed the dive state quickly. The nose of the plane was quickly lifted up and turned into a 30 Climb upwards at an angle of degree.
Who could have imagined that this kind of original dive would be pulled up all at once, but the pilot's overload was not light!
Moreover, with the other party's operation, most of the speed accumulated just now disappeared. For Tomcat, this is not good news.
Any fighter jet has a minimum speed. If this speed is exceeded, the lift provided by the wings is not enough, and the aircraft will fall. This is a stall crash.
The minimum speed of the second-generation aircraft is very large, and because the Tomcat fighter has variable swept wings, its minimum speed can be lower, only more than 200 kilometers per hour.
But what about the sea harrier? People’s minimum speed is zero, and they can even fly backwards, which is negative speed.
So, just like the contest between a propeller plane and a jet plane, as soon as the opponent decelerates, the jet will fly over. Now Chen Rui is facing this situation, seeing that he is about to brush the ground and fly over.
Damn, the other party is so cunning, bullying yourself and dare not really launch missiles!
Chen Rui couldn't help cursing in her heart.
In later generations, Su-27 has a famous Cobra maneuver, which can quickly reduce the speed at once. According to military fans, it can send the enemy's aircraft to the front of itself. Let go, and fly to the front.
But in fact, the key to fighter air combat is energy. This kind of active deceleration method is definitely looking for death.
Sea Harrier is not afraid, because now, this is the airspace of others.
In the world, the most famous and professional magazine is the Jane's Aerospace Yearbook. Among them, the AV8 and F14 of the Eagle Country Marine Corps had simulated confrontations with 4 wins and 1 draw.
This is unbelievable, but the Eagles cannot lie, the fact is. This result is partly because the Harrier introduced the F14 into its own air combat superiority zone, and the other part is the result of the sudden application of its thrust vectoring tactics. In theory, it is very dangerous for the Tomcat to compete with the Harrier's superiority zone.
Now, here is the ultra-low altitude, the superior airspace of the Sea Harrier, and for all-airspace fighters like the Tomcat, although it is omnipotent compared to other jets, it cannot be guaranteed for the Sea Harrier. Absolute advantage.
Chen Rui had made comprehensive preparations for this air battle. He had carefully read the article on the simulation contest and conducted an accurate analysis.
It is very unwise to fight against it in the harrier-style superior airspace, but it is not without confidence.
In fact, even in Niu’s boasting Donkey Island War, the Sea Harrier relied more on the Eagle Country’s AIM-9L "Super Sidewinder" infrared close-range missile to engage the Silver Country’s Mirage fighter jets instead of relying on the pitiful thrust. Thrust vector motivation to play what thrust vector tactics. Moreover, at that time, the planes of the Silver Nation came from afar, and there was no mood to entangle them at all.
It is different now. Chen Rui has sufficient confidence in the J-11B and believes that the Red Cat is the pinnacle of air combat weapons. He has sufficient confidence to defeat the Harrier, but any weapon has its own superior area, and the Harrier must be separated from its superior air combat zone!
Therefore, it is necessary to tease the other party now and let the other party fly into the airspace where one has the advantage.
How to do it?
In fact, in World War II, this tactic of relying solely on low-altitude combat was already completely passive. Those fighters with high-altitude advantages could hunt them at any time. This is raiding tactics!
The Red Cat with the F110-GE400 turbofan engine has a very strong acceleration performance, whether it is rushing over or running back, it is quite easy. As long as the afterburner is turned on, the Sea Harrier fighter can't keep up with it, and it can easily occupy a favorable position to attack.
Don't be led by the nose, you must take the initiative!
While the opponent was turning, Chen Rui turned on the afterburner, and the wings of the Tomcat fighter continued to unfold, which would ensure its good hovering performance. The powerful thrust given by the F110 engine allowed it to hover steadily or hover instantly. , The performance is first-class.
He flew over the opponent's head easily, and then, amidst the roar, stopped controlling the wings, and the wings swept back, like a spear, and he began to accelerate.
Now, when he saw that the Tomcat fighter began to accelerate away, the can was looking at the flames of the two hot engines, and he was also preparing to attack, intending to use his Sidewinder missile to lock the opponent.
In the war on Donkey Island, the Sea Harrier fighters made great achievements, mainly relying on the sneak attack of this AIM-9L Sidewinder missile. Now, it is the best opportunity!
Wait, can't lock?
With such hot tail smoke, his missiles can't actually lock the opponent?
what happened?
The rudimentary radar in front of the sea harrier quickly read out the target data, and the opponent had pierced the sonic boom in a short period of time and entered supersonic flight!
The maximum speed of the Sidewinder missile is only Mach 2. It is at high altitude, and the aircraft must be given a certain speed. Now at ultra-low altitude, the resistance is very large, and his fighter has no speed. The launch speed is 1. Mach only.
In this case, even if the Sidewinder missile is launched, it will never catch up with the opponent! The speed increase of the opponent is simply too swift and violent, it is simply the Ferrari of the fighter world.
The Tomcat fighter accelerated to leave, then circled a large circle in the airspace ahead, and then returned. When he saw the other person's appearance, Canner felt his own heart trembling. This guy, is he going to play himself to death?
