Chapter 2651: Two Tu-22M

Holding the flying chart, Mikhailov walked towards the huge Tu-22M bomber.
If only from the appearance, this aircraft seems to be like a tactical bomber, with huge rectangular air inlets on both sides and a single vertical tail at the tail. It does not look particularly imposing, but only after approaching, it immediately I can feel its hugeness. This is an airplane more than 40 meters long. If you jump up from the tail, a person can stand up directly in the tail nozzle. The kind of small fighter jet can't do anything with it. This is a bomber with a take-off weight of more than 100 tons!
Now, there were no weapons inside the fuselage, it was just filled with fuel. As Mikhailov walked, looking at the western sky, it was getting dark.
He had a strange feeling, as if someone had defected a few years ago, but this feeling just flickered in his mind and disappeared.
How could he be like that kind of person? His mission this time was assigned to him by the commander of the base, and he was accompanied by an aircraft. In the entire base, although this mission is highly confidential, it was coordinated by the commander of the base. If you say defect, Will so many people help him?
Besides, it's not that he won't come back anymore. After completing this mission, he will come back. At the same time, there will be a lot of money in his account.
The whole army has long been panicked.
The situation in Xiong’s country is not optimistic. It is common for ordinary people’s wages not to be paid. Even in the army, although there is no such thing as non-payment of wages for several months, it is only paid every time, even half. One-third of the allowance is the most common.
They need money, especially his daughter, who goes to university in Hans State, but also needs tuition.
This aircraft has four crew members, but now, he is the only one, because according to the plan, this aircraft has been eliminated and needs to be flown to the aircraft cemetery for storage.
In this case, it is not a fight, one person is enough.
Following the gangway, Mikhailov climbed onto the plane.
Some large bombers have different entry methods from fighter jets. For example, the cockpit windshield is closed and cannot be opened. If you want to open it, there is only one situation, that is, he has ejected and escaped.
Generally speaking, this kind of bomber enters from the gangway where the main landing gear is in front, but unlike the Figure-22M, the cockpit cover can be turned to both sides, climb in from the gangway, and then buckle the cockpit cover.
Mikhailov followed the gangway, climbed into the cockpit, and began to prepare for takeoff.
He flicked the buttons skillfully, and the two NK-22 engines at the tail quickly roared. He looked at the display of various instruments, and after getting normal, he contacted the tower skillfully and slipped onto the runway.
The huge wing has been deployed. Although it is called Tu-22M, it is completely different from the original Tu-22. This is a newly designed aircraft. The design principle of the entire aircraft is based on its variable swept wings. The Tupolev Design Bureau carefully determined the position of the wing shaft, as well as the fixed-wing wing sleeve, and the relative area of ​​the movable outer wing. After all, this is the first variable-sweep-wing bomber. This complex design guarantees The deviation of the aerodynamic pressure center when the wing is reset does not exceed 2% of the average aerodynamic chord.
Like other variable-swept wing aircraft of this era, its variable-swept wing is manually controlled. Xiong Guo has no way to automatically adjust the position of the variable-swept wing according to the flight speed. It depends on different flight modes. , Can choose 4 kinds of wing sweep angle.
Among them, a sweep angle of 20 degrees is used for take-off and landing, 30 degrees is used for the start of climb and long subsonic cruises, fifty degrees is used for low-altitude transonic flight to break through the air defense line, and 60 degrees is used for supersonic cruises. .
That’s right, this large variable swept-wing bomber, for the first time, realized the capability expected by the Xiong State Air Force, supersonic cruise. After the wings swept, it reduced the air resistance and matched the powerful tail engine. , To achieve its supersonic cruise. Although it consumes a lot of fuel, it is well prepared. This bomber weighs 58 tons. When fully loaded, it can load 54 tons of fuel, which is enough for supersonic cruise use.
It is now in the take-off state, so at the position of the minimum sweep angle, the wings are straight, and amid a huge roar, this huge bomber flies into the sky.
At this time, the sky was already dark, and the navigation lights under the wings were flashing.
Behind it, another bomber also took off. The Backfire bomber, which once made the entire Western world tremble, now, under the operation of arms dealer Boris, finally flew to its other destination, Han country.
The first half of the voyage was always normal, but later, when on the route closest to Han, the two bombers suddenly dropped altitude, as if they encountered a sudden bad air current. After calling a few times on the radio, he flew towards Han from a super low altitude.
At this time, on the border of Han, an aerial police 2000 early warning aircraft was cruising at a normal altitude. The electromagnetic wave radiated towards the other side of the border, searching the sky far away. Soon, two bright spots appeared on the screen. .
Backfire bombers were once the most troublesome weapon in Han for many years. After Han and Xiong became hostile, the main purpose of the air defense of Han's air force was to intercept backfire bombers!
This kind of bomber can fly at ultra-low altitudes. Since Han has no qualified pulse Doppler radar, it is difficult to retrieve the targets flying at ultra-low altitudes, and the opponent can drive in for a long time, even flying up to the capital of Han to drop bombs. In that particular era, a large number of fighter jets deployed by Han were intended to be intercepted by impact. The J-8 mission was also to intercept such bombers.
But now, the fate is embarrassing. Han has become stronger, and there is no need to fear this kind of bomber. At the same time, Han has the opportunity to get the Backfire bomber over, although the way is a little bad, just It's like a thief, but the opportunity is rare, and since there is one, we must get it over!
The Backfire bomber played an important role for Han. Han could not only rely on the improved H6 of Tu-16. The JH-7 can only be a tactical bomber. The name H8 has been given to the stealth bomber. Occupied, so Qin Guan even couldn't wait to give this bomber a bomb number nine.
In that parallel time and space, there were many sayings that Han Guo wanted to buy Backfire, but it was just an argument. At the beginning, maybe Han Guo really wanted it, but Xiong Guo would not sell it to Han Guo. Yes, after all, this may threaten Xiong Country itself. Later, when Xiong Country really wants to sell, Han Country is no longer rare.
