Dominate South Asia

"South of Karachi, 100 kilometers above the sea, 40 targets found!" The E-2 early warning aircraft was monitoring the air battle of Thatta over the eastern part of Karachi, and at the same time had to guide its own A-7 fleet. The three people were in a hurry and ignored the threat from the south. It was not until Rick sent a message that the Indians had a trick that they began to pay attention to other airspaces. When the radar beam scanned the sea south of Karachi, it immediately searched for these flying fighters!

"Azazel received." Rick's calm words on the radio calmed the people in the early warning aircraft. Then, the bright spots on the screen representing their own side flew quickly towards the sea.

The wings of the Tomcat fighter were retracted to the end, which was the best high-altitude sprint posture. When the engine afterburner was turned on, the fighter quickly exceeded the speed of sound and accelerated to a maximum speed of more than Mach 2.

"Squadron 3, take off immediately and go to Karachi." Rick shouted on the radio, and the ten reserve Tomcat fighters also began to take off quickly.

Rick led his ten Tomcats and flew quickly towards the war zone. At this time, their Phoenix missiles had been used up, and there were only two medium-range Sparrow missiles left.

Their advantage was that the Mirage 2000 fleet had not discovered them at all.

The early warning aircraft kept sending information that the Mirage 2000 fighters had approached Karachi within 20 kilometers and were about to start bombing. The Tomcat fighters finally came to the range of the 40-kilometer Sparrow missiles.

"Launch the Sparrow missile." Rick ordered. His radar officer had quickly locked a Mirage 2000 with radar. Within one second, the Sparrow missile had flown out of the belly of the aircraft.

The Mirage 2000 was equipped with an omnidirectional warning receiver. When it received the signal from the radar warning aircraft. The Mirage 2000 fleet reacted instantly and was locked!

Twenty kilometers away from Karachi, the city in the distance can be seen visually. Salim, the commander of the Mirage 2000 fleet, immediately issued an order: "Squadron 3, turn to intercept, Squadron 2, continue bombing! All fighters, drop auxiliary fuel tanks!"

Two large auxiliary fuel tanks. They were thrown away from the lower end of the wing. After throwing away the bulky auxiliary fuel tanks, the Mirage 2000 fighters suddenly felt relieved. Twenty Mirage 2000 fighters rushed towards the Tomcat fleet.

Even if they were shot down, they had to protect the bomber team in front of them!

Almost at the same time, Rick continued to issue orders: "One team, entangle this group of fighters, and the rest, attack their bombers!"

This group of fighters that rushed over must be fighters, and the group that continued to fly must be bombers with bombs. They are the biggest threat to Karachi.

The Sparrow missiles were still flying. Six of the missiles just launched were aimed at the bombers, while the remaining four were locked on the fighters behind.

The Sparrow missiles continued to fly. After the Mirage 2000 fighters were fully loaded with bombs, their maneuverability was greatly reduced. When the missiles arrived, four of the Mirage 2000s were shot down, two dropped their bombs, made a large maneuver to get rid of them, one successfully got rid of them, and the other was shot down.

The remaining fourteen Mirage fighters were still flying towards Karachi.

If they were using the latest Mirage 2000H model fighters, they could carry a large number of ground attack weapons. They could even carry nuclear bombs, but this batch was only the initial model of the Mirage 2000, which could not carry precision-guided weapons, but only ordinary bombs, which meant that they could only fly over the target. To drop bombs.

The four Sparrow missiles that flew to the combat-mounted Mirage fighters shot down three. One maneuvered to get rid of them.

After receiving Rick's order, a small team of two Tomcat fighters approached the Indian Mirage fighters without hesitation and engaged in air combat with them. Although they only had two and the other side had 17, they were not afraid.

Rick had no choice. Even if the two Tomcat fighters were shot down, he had to kill the bombers first.

When the Tomcat fleet separated, the Mirage 2000 fighter wanted to launch missiles at them, but complex electromagnetic interference followed, and their airborne radars were all interfered. They could only use close-range Magic 2 missiles after approaching.

Ten kilometers away, the Tomcat fleet roared past without exchanging fire with them. Salim immediately ordered ten Mirage 2000 fighters to turn around and intercept the Tomcats. The remaining seven rushed towards the two Tomcats that came to intercept them.

"The Indians turned around and chased us!" The radar officer behind shouted to Rick.

"Don't worry about them, keep firing Sparrow missiles!" Rick ordered.

Now, the distance between the two sides is 20 kilometers, and the last medium-range Sparrow missile can be fired.

The Mirage 2000 has a high instantaneous turning rate of 30 degrees per second, which allows it to turn quickly, but as it turns, its speed begins to lose rapidly. After completing the turn, the Mirage 2000 fighter turns on the afterburner and begins to accelerate slowly.

Yes, it accelerates slowly. Due to the low thrust of the engine of this fighter, its horizontal acceleration and climbing performance are the lowest among the third-generation aircraft. For example, at an altitude of 5,000 meters, it takes 50 seconds to increase horizontally from 0.7 Mach to 1.3 Mach; at an altitude of 10,000 meters, it takes 184 seconds to increase horizontally from Mach 1 to Mach 2. At an altitude of 500 meters, its climbing rate is 180 meters per second.

And the Tomcat fighter only needs 75 seconds to accelerate from static to Mach 1.8.

So, when these Mirage 2000 fighters turned around to catch up, they were not getting closer, but getting farther and farther.

At this time, the Tomcat fighter had launched the second batch of Sparrow missiles, eight Sparrow missiles, flying towards the fourteen fighters that continued to prepare for bombing. At this time, they had entered the final bombing route.

Several failures have made the Indian Air Force united against the enemy. In such a dangerous situation, they ignored the sound of the radar warning receiver in the headset and still calmly aimed at their targets.

The most conspicuous target is the aircraft carrier that is being renovated in the slipway! The large deck that goes straight through is their target!

Get closer and closer. Just when they are about to press the bomb button, a huge explosion is heard behind the fuselage.

The Sparrow missiles flew over, just like a target shooting machine. Eight missiles killed eight Mirage 2000 fighters, and the remaining six dropped bombs.

The air defense weapons of the Karachi Naval Base kept firing at the air, and the barrage flew in the sky, affecting the vision of Indian pilots. Even so, they still dropped bombs firmly.

Two Mirage 2000 fighters were shot down by ground artillery fire, and four Mirage 2000 fighters dropped their bombs on the warships in Karachi Port, and then climbed out.

They had no chance. Rick's eyes were red as he used a Sidewinder missile to eliminate the Mirage 2000 fighter that had climbed out of the anti-aircraft fire.

The Indians were bombing without regard for casualties. The battle on Dart delayed the Pakistan Air Force's actions, and as a result, four Mirage 2000 fighters succeeded.

All the Mirage 2000 fighters that were bombing were shot down. At this time, the other ten Tomcat fighters on standby had all arrived. Their current task was to kill all the Indian fighters that came out this time!

When Rick's fleet began to turn, it met the ten Mirage 2000 fighters behind it head-on.

The Tomcat fighter had fired all the Sparrow missiles, leaving only two Sidewinder missiles. Rick was still confident that he would beat down all the Indians even with machine guns!

Complex electromagnetic interference puts the radar of Mirage 2000 on strike, so the only chance for Mirage 2000 fighter is to fire its Magic 2 missile.

The close-range combat that Indians are looking forward to the most has finally begun.

The performance of Magic 2 is good in all aspects, and the only disadvantage is its power range!

At a distance of ten kilometers, that is, almost after the Tomcat fighter turned, it locked the Mirage 2000 fighter flying from the opposite side and launched a Sidewinder missile.

Head-on attack! The Magic 2 missile is still waiting for the carrier to send it into the effective range, and the Sidewinder missile from the opposite side has already flown.

The gap of only four kilometers forced Mirage 2000 to give up the opportunity to attack. What they need now is how to avoid the missiles flying from the opposite side!

This round of Sidewinder missiles once again caused Mirage 2000 to lose five aircraft, and the remaining five finally rushed up!

A Mirage 2000 caught up with Rick's fighter and attacked from the tail, which was his best skill!

Rick flew with ease. The opponent was behind him. Even if he launched a missile, he could still shine the xenon lamp on him. Now, without the xenon lamp, Rick could kill him.

With the wings fully open, Rick began to circle at a large angle.

Comparing circles with the Mirage 2000? The Indian pilot behind him secretly laughed at his opponent in his heart, and at the same time began to circle, pedal the rudder, press the joystick, and the nose of the fighter was steadily pointed at the opponent. The guidance head of the Magic 2 missile could immediately face the engine nozzle at the tail of the opponent.

The opponent had no intention of stopping at all and continued to circle. Just beyond the off-axis angle of the Magic 2, the Mirage 2000 behind wanted to launch missiles, so it had to continue to circle.

As it continued to circle, the speed of the Mirage 2000 fighter gradually slowed down. After following the Tomcat fighter in front for two circles, the speed of the Mirage 2000 has dropped to the point where it can hardly provide enough lift.

I'm going to kill you! Rick listened to the report from the radar operator behind him. The Mirage 2000 behind him could no longer catch up, so Rick calmly turned on the afterburner. (To be continued ~^~)
