$ Chapter 419 Mayday! Mayday! !
Falcons are bait, but only bait, not food!
Now that the fish has taken the bait, the bait can be removed.
Although their camels are rich, they are not stupid. There is no need to give them away in vain when they can obviously save more power...
Of course, a retreat is just a retreat, not a complete retreat.
The Falcon's maximum range is up to 5,000 kilometers!
The maximum battery life is up to more than thirty hours!
It’s okay to be a street kid in heaven for a day!
When the Black and White Eagle fighter planes are destroyed or the fuel is exhausted, the Black and White Eagle coalition without the air defense system will be the fat in the Falcon's mouth!
…
"Damn, these camels are trying to run away! Should we catch up?"
The movements of the Camel Falcon drone were immediately discovered by the Black and White Eagle Village's early warning aircraft and Eagle Eye reconnaissance aircraft.
The crew of the early warning aircraft immediately reported the news to the command center.
Steve frowned when he heard the news from the early warning aircraft.
Thoughts passed through his mind one after another.
I don’t know how long it took, but Steve’s voice finally sounded again:
"Order the early warning squadron to continue monitoring and report any situation to me as soon as possible!"
"Order the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Air Wings to remain alert and intercept the Falcon 400 kilometers away from the base!"
"Order the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th Air Wings to be ready to take over. After the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Air Wings have exhausted their fuel, they will take over as soon as possible..."
Orders were issued one after another from Steve's mouth.
Theoretically, destroying the Falcon is their best choice, but now that the Falcon is retreating directly, it is impossible for them to catch up.
According to the intelligence they have, the Falcon UAV has a maximum range of up to 5,000 kilometers!
The maximum battery life is up to more than thirty hours!
And their fighter jets, even the Eagles and Fighting Falcons with the longest range, only have a maximum range of two to three thousand kilometers. Even if they are equipped with auxiliary fuel tanks, the maximum range is only three to four thousand kilometers!
And this is only the maximum range. Unlike drones like the Falcon, which can be used as consumables, their fighter jets need to consider returning!
Therefore, the actual combat range of a fighter aircraft is not considered the maximum range, but the combat radius!
In other words, their actual combat range is only more than a thousand kilometers.
The endurance time in the air is only one or two hours at most!
These are still their Fighting Falcons and Eagle fighters, and the Raptor's endurance is even worse.
The combat radius of the Raptor is only 900 kilometers. Even if it cruises at subsonic speed, it can only support a flight time of one hour at most.
They have to return in an hour!
Of course, they can also cruise near their own airport, which can greatly extend the battery life.
After all, you can land at any time.
But what's the point in that?
If enemy planes are allowed to approach their base or airport and launch missiles directly from hundreds of kilometers away, what is the use of their fighter planes taking off?
Flying in the sky as a performance team?
Therefore, if they are fighting for battery life, they are far from defeated.
You may even be walked by a camel until you are exhausted!
However, they have more than one fighter plane in their hands!
Now their coalition has thousands of third- and fourth-generation fighters in the desert!
With so many fighter planes, they can be constantly rotated and cruise along with the camels and falcons day and night!
The only trouble is, there are too few raptors to...
"Wait! Raptor?"
Suddenly, Steve was shocked!
"Pass my order! The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Air Wings all retreat! The 1st and 2nd Raptor Wings, get ready for battle!"
Thinking of the Raptor, Steve suddenly contacted Camel's stealth fighter!
What is the purpose of the large-scale invasion of Falcon drones?
In addition to carrying out bombing missions against them, there must be other tasks.
Like being a bait! !
As said before, this is a conspiracy, even if he knew it, he had to bite the bullet.
And since it is bait, what is the other party’s purpose?
There is no doubt that it is their fighter! !
And now, are the Falcon drones retreating because they are afraid of their fighter jets? Or do they want to consume their fighters and pilots through battery life?
Maybe there are, but I'm afraid these are not the fundamental purpose.
Compared with these, Steve believes in another reason - the camel is ready to take action! !
Hearing Steve's voice, the other commanders of the Black and White Eagle Alliance next to them were also shocked.
Immediately afterwards, everyone's expressions changed.
Anyone who can become the commander of the command center is naturally not an idiot.
Therefore, after Steve's reminder, everyone else also thought of the key.
Then, without any hesitation, the commanders quickly passed on the orders one by one.
After receiving the order, the Fighting Falcons and Eagle fighter jets that were still rushing towards the Falcon drone at high altitude had to stop their pursuit and then turned around and returned.
Only those birds of prey lurking in the dark are still cruising in the dark...
The sky remained calm until the Fighting Falcon and Eagle fighter squadrons retreated a full two hundred kilometers and almost reached the outermost coalition defense line.
Except for the whistling sound and engine noise of the fighter planes tearing through the air, there was no other movement.
"Sir, Camel's Falcon drone flew 600 kilometers away and did not move forward. It has been cruising in an area 600 kilometers away from us..."
A voice sounded quietly in the command center.
Steve did not respond after hearing this.
After a long while, Steve said, "Did the early warning squadron detect other abnormal signals?"
"Sorry Sir, up to now, the early warning squadron has not intercepted any abnormal information. Except for the Falcon drone, everything is normal within the early warning range of the early warning aircraft!"
Everything is normal?
Steve's face became more and more solemn.
"Sir, could it be that we are overthinking it? This time, Camel may simply want to consume our fighter jets' fuel and material reserves, or consume our pilots' spirits, in preparation for other offensive plans later?"
After another long while, seeing that there was still no movement in the sky, the hook-nosed commander could not help but speak.
Hearing this, Steve frowned.
Just when Steve and others were in doubt,
Above the sky——
"Attention all units, all Raptor coordinate information has been synchronized. The command center orders that aircraft 001, 003, 004, and 006 should immediately destroy the Hawkeye 2000 early warning aircraft and Hawkeye reconnaissance aircraft in the sky!"
"Other combat units, immediately destroy all nearby Raptor targets!"
The radar is also in silent mode.
Neither side can see the other side.
And in order to ensure that it is not exposed as much as possible, the Holy Dragon Brigade has always maintained a distance of at least 100 kilometers from the Raptor!
At this distance, even the radar of the Sword 20 fighter can't find the Raptor at all.
But this is not important.
The Sword 20 can't find it, but there is Tianshu in the sky!
"001 received!"
"003 received!"
"004 received!"
"..."
Hearing the command from the command center, the Camel pilots responded one after another.
The next moment, the fire control radars of several Sword 20s that received the order to destroy the early warning aircraft and reconnaissance aircraft were directly turned on!
...
Beep beep beep! ! !
Almost as soon as the Jian 20 fire control radar was turned on, the radar warning device on the Black and White Hawk AWACS started to alarm frantically!
"Lock on!!"
"Lock on!!"
"..."
The entire cabin was lit up with scarlet alarm lights!
"Fuck! We are locked by the fire control radar!!"
The sudden alarm made all the AWACS crew members change their faces!
"Quick! Quick! Quick! Search the radar position immediately and calculate the radar distance!"
The leading crew commander suppressed the fear in his heart and ordered the crew members around him.
But just as he finished speaking, a voice with a broken voice suddenly sounded:
"At ten o'clock, an abnormal radar signal was found at ten o'clock..."
"Oh my god! Missiles!! The radar detected the signal of the missile! We were locked by the missile!!"
"0.5 Mach...1 Mach...2 Mach..."
"God! The speed of that missile has exceeded Mach 5!"
"No! Not one, there is another one! No, there are two!"
"Quick! Prepare to parachute!"
Exclamations rang out one after another.
When the signal of the third air-to-air missile appeared, the crew members could no longer sit still and stood up directly from their seats, and then dragged the parachute bag next to them without hesitation.
Although the radar showed that the missile was more than 100 kilometers away from them!
But what is this distance?
At a distance of more than 100 kilometers, these missiles do not even take a minute to fly!
And in one minute, how far can their early warning aircraft fly?
Even if the engine is burning and smoking, and the propeller is spinning sparks, it can only be more than ten kilometers at most!
As for the jamming bombs?
Don't dream. They had so many fighters and AWACS before, how many of them succeeded in jamming?
Between running away with the AWACS and running away by themselves, everyone chose the latter without hesitation!
Fortunately, there was still one minute left. Before parachuting, the leading crew commander still bit the bullet and reported the news of the discovery of stealth fighters and missiles to the command center.
...
"Report!"
"The AWACS squadron has received news that their AWACS has been locked by the Camel stealth fighter. The enemy aircraft launched three Mach 5 air-to-air missiles at them. The crew members have now parachuted..."
After receiving the news from the AWACS crew, the communications officer of the coalition command center reported the news immediately.
Hearing this, Steve and others were shocked!
"They really took action!"
At this moment, Steve was a little glad that he was not careless!
But then, Steve suddenly came back to his senses.
Then he hurriedly said: "Send the information of the early warning aircraft to the Raptor crew, and order all members of the Raptor First and Second Wings to prepare for battle!"
"Yes Sir!!"
After the order was issued, Steve sat in his seat with his hands clenched.
Excited, nervous, uneasy...
All kinds of emotions kept tangling in his heart.
...
"Is it finally here?"
After receiving the news from the command center, high up in the sky, the Raptor Commander leading the team was shocked.
Then all the Raptor pilots started to get excited!
"Damn camel cowards, I will send you to see God this time!"
Since the advent of the Raptor, they have never suffered such humiliation before!
Before the last Sword Twenty attack, their Raptors were invincible on Blue Star!
Let’s not talk about the drills organized by Black and White Eagle Village themselves. In those drills, they created countless scores of dozens to zero, even hundreds to even two or three hundred to zero!
Whether it's a Fighting Falcon or an Eagle, no fighter can compete with their Raptors!
Even after entering the desert, they faced the most advanced Tianlong and Yinglong fighters in the hands of Camel. They were also invincible in the desert before and were recognized as the best fourth-and-a-half-generation fighter jets, Tianlong and Yinglong. They were invincible!
No matter Tianlong or Yinglong, they had no ability to resist in front of them, and they even suppressed them to the point where they didn't even dare to take off!
They are the real kings of the sky!
However, a few days ago, Luotuo used his sword twenty to break through their defense line and severely damaged their air defense system!
And today, camels are back again!
Even under their pursuit, he simply ran away without a trace!
And they didn't even get the ashes, they just watched each other escape!
This is their shame! !
boom! !
With unparalleled anger, the Raptor engines began to roar!
Then he quickly rushed towards the exposed Sword Twenty!
However, at this moment——
Didi didi! !
A shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the cockpit!
At the same time, an even more piercing alarm followed -
"lock on!!"
"lock on!!"
"..."
The sudden sound caused the expression of the Raptor pilot who had been looking excited just now to change drastically.
"Gift Crab! I'm locked by the fire control radar!!"
An exclamation appeared involuntarily in the pilot's mouth.
"Fire control radar locked?
Hearing the exclamations of their teammates, the expressions of the other pilots also changed.
"Where is it? Find it quickly!!"
"I don't know, I'm searching!" Faced with the inquiry, the targeted pilot was terrified.
"Found it! He's on my right... Fak! Missile!! I'm locked by the missile! It's on my right, Fak, when did he run to my right? Thirty-six kilometers away, damn it! He fired two missiles!"
Voices of shock and anger sounded one after another in the communication channel.
"Thirty-six kilometers? Damn Camels, damn camels. When did they run to our right?" Hearing the voice of their companions, the remaining Raptor pilots were all shocked and angry.
But before they could think too much——
"Oh! I'm locked too! On my left! Damn, it's only twenty-five kilometers away from me! Damn! He launched three missiles at me! The speed exceeded Mach 5! Mayday! Mayday!"
Bang bang bang bang! ! !
Along with the sounds of fear and anger, decoy bombs were thrown out one after another from the locked Raptor fighter jets.
At the same time, the locked Raptor fighter jets began to demonstrate their super maneuverability that surpassed almost 90% of the world's fighter jets.
"I got rid of it! Hahaha!! I got rid of this missile!"
"Gift crab! Why is there another one? Mayday!! Mayday!! Mayday!!"
"No! I can't get out of the missile lock! They're targeting me!"
"Skydive quickly! Hurry!"
"It's too late!"
boom! ! !
Along with the violent explosion, scarlet fire suddenly bloomed in the dark night!
