life in the sky

腓国海军从1991年起，就有一项雄心勃勃的十年发展规划：将逐步淘汰17艘二战时的旧式舰艇，并保证拥有60艘较为现代化的军舰和辅助船、120艘快艇、3架F27海上巡逻机、10架“岛民”式海上搜索救援飞机和1架BO105直升机。在2000年以前，腓国政府还将拨出15亿美元用于实现海军装备的现代化，包括向美国、澳大利亚、西班牙、日本等国购买36艘舰艇、10架巡逻飞机。

目前腓国已从美国订购了2艘后勤舰，并把韩国赠送的2艘巡逻炮艇也编入现役，1997年7月1日，英国将原在香港的3艘孔雀级巡逻艇移交腓国。

The Philippine Navy originally planned to have relatively advanced equipment such as frigates, landing ships, and large missile boats by 2000.Then buy 3 modern frigates and 2 larger patrol boats from the United States.By 2010, the number of newly purchased warships will reach 94, and it is also planned to introduce submarines to basically realize the modernization of naval equipment.

However, in recent years, the power struggle among the upper echelons of the Filipino country has been fierce, coupled with extremely serious corruption, the above-mentioned plan has not been realized.However, the Filipino government has not given up its attempt to modernize its military. They believe that as long as they try their best to win a few years of opportunity and exaggerate the China threat theory, the United States and Taiwan will provide Philip with various naval weapons for free, and the Filipino government can use a small amount of funds. Make the Philippine Air Force, which has been behind for 50 years, realize the missileization, and let the combat effectiveness reach the contemporary level, making it impossible for the opponent to cope with it.From this point, it can be seen that the country of Philip is a country that likes to get something for nothing very much.

At present, the largest and most powerful warship owned by the Philippine Navy is the Raja Humabang-class (American-made Cannon-class) frigate. This ship is a super old ship launched during World War II. millimeter gun.The ship started construction at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard in the United States on January 1750, 3, was launched on May 76 of the same year, and entered service on August 1943, named "USS Atherton.

On June 1955, 6, the United States handed over the USS "Atherton" to Japan for use, and the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force named it the frigate "Hatsuhi". The already very outdated ships were returned to the US Navy.

On December 1978, 12, the U.S. Navy sold the ship to the Philippines at a very low price like a burden, but the ship could no longer run, so the Philippines towed the ship to the Philippines in the second year. South Korea underwent overhaul and modernization, and it was not until February 23, 1980 that the ship served again in Philip.

Philippe named it the "Raja Humabang" destroyer frigate (PF11). The standard displacement of the ship is 1390 tons, the length of the ship is 93.3 meters, the width of the ship is 11.2 meters, the draft is 4.3 meters, and the power is four 4 diesel engines, 26278 Horsepower, two shafts, and a maximum speed of 4480 knots, which is not as fast as many modern civilian ships.The endurance is 18 nautical miles and 10800 knots; the number of personnel is 12; the main weapons and equipment are three very old Mk165 3mm open-ended naval guns.

舰上还有3座非常古老的40毫米双联装高平两用舰炮；6座20毫米高平两用舰炮；4挺12.7毫米机枪。拥有的20毫米炮和12.7毫米机枪火力根本就不足以参加现代海战，只能用来欺负渔船。1座M10型反潜火箭发射器，8座Mk6型深水炸弹发射架，这两种反潜武器早已过时，如果没有现代化的舰艇及其反潜武器配合，它们甚至无法对付W级的老潜艇，。

The ship originally had a sister ship "Datu Carrantio", which sank on September 1981, 9 when it encountered Typhoon Clara. It seems that the ship of this class has long been old.Another larger ship owned by the Philippine Navy is the Puffin-class minesweeper "Rizal". This ship is also an old ship built during World War II. It was launched into the water and entered service on August 20, 1944. The U.S. military named it "Meurelet" (MSF8), and it was handed over to the Philippines on June 24, 12.This class of ships is similar to the retired Guanzi class of the Taiwan Navy, and it is also one of the larger warships of the Philippine Navy.

Philippe calls it the minesweeping frigate (PS74) "Rizal". The ship has a standard displacement of 1090 tons, a full load displacement of 1250 tons, a length of 67.4 meters, a width of 9.8 meters, a draft of 3.3 meters, and two 2 diesel engines. , 26278 horsepower, twin shafts, maximum speed of 1790 knots, endurance of 18 miles and 5700 knots, staff of 16 (including 80 officers), main weapons and equipment are two Mk5 2mm naval guns, two 26mm twin-mounted high-level Dual-purpose naval guns, 76 2mm double-mounted high-level dual-purpose naval gun, 40 1mm single-tube high-level dual-purpose naval guns, 20 2mm machine guns, 20 Mk4 type 12.7-mounted 1mm torpedo launch tube, launch Mk32 anti-submarine torpedoes, one Mk3 anti-submarine rocket launcher, and two Mk324 depth charge launchers.

该舰另有一姊妹舰“奎松”号（PS70），原为美舰“维吉兰斯”号（MSF324），1942年11月28日开工建造，943年4月5日下水，1944年2月28日服役，1967年8月19日移交菲律宾。马尔萨尔级（美制PCE827）7艘，19431945年建成服役。菲律宾将其作为护航炮舰使用。

华夏海军对此型舰艇并不陌生，二战后台湾当局接收了15艘同级舰。在1965年11月13日的崇武以东海战中，被华夏东海舰队鱼雷艇部队击沉的“永昌”号、1974年被华夏海军南海舰队击沉的南越10号护航炮舰“怒涛”号即为该级舰。该舰长56.3米，宽10.1米，吃水3米，标准排水量650吨，满载排水量945吨。最高航速15节。武器有1门76毫米、以及40毫米、20毫米火炮。战斗定员85人，其中军官8名。

The above-mentioned old warships of World War II have basically lost their combat capabilities, and most of the time they can only rest on the pier for people to visit. On June 2002, 6, the destroyer escort ship "Raja Humabang" also visited China. Stop and go, it took more than a month to go from Feiguo to Huaxia.If they are forced to go to sea to fight, they will inevitably be full of failures under high-load working conditions. I am afraid that the sailors on the ship will have to row life rafts by themselves to return to the voyage.

The Peacock class is now one of the "capital ships" of the Philippine Navy. It entered service in 1984. The ship is nearly 30 years old. Although it is much newer than other Philippine ships, it is not "young".It used to be a patrol ship of the British Army in Hong Kong, and the British handed it over to the Philippines around 1997.With a displacement of 763 tons, it is equipped with a newer 1mm Otto gun with a maximum range of 76 kilometers and four 16mm machine guns.

除此之外腓国海军还有13艘巡逻艇、25艘快速巡逻艇。卡尔廷冈级3艘，该舰长85米，宽10米，吃水3米，排水量1200吨。最高航速24节。武器有1门76毫米炮、4门30毫米炮，2挺12。7毫米机枪。可载1架BO105直升机。

其余巡逻艇吨位均在27956吨之间，装40毫米、20毫米火炮或12.77.62毫米机枪。航速有34节、25节、16节不等，其中小艇速度较快两栖舰船包括2艘美制“BEESON”级登陆舰、7艘“南三宝颜”级（二战时期的美制LST511）登陆舰及39艘各型人员和车辆登陆舰。

此外腓国还有一支海军陆战队，共编为3个旅共10个营。配备LVTP5LVTP7装甲输送车109辆，105毫米M101火炮150门，107毫米迫击炮若干门。

The Philippine Marine Corps has repeatedly intervened in domestic political struggles such as military coups, and often returned without success in dealing with domestic guerrillas.In addition, the Coast Guard is equipped with 65 patrol boats, equipped with 20 mm artillery or 12.77.62 mm machine guns.Four of them are 4 tons, and the rest are less than 124 tons.These patchwork old ships are all the belongings of the Philippine Navy.

Now there are 23 flowers short of adding more chapters.

Text 620 Chapter [-] Ducks vs. Eagles

The situation of the navy is like this, and the strength of the air force is even more pitiful.Pao-Book_Ba () The Filipino Air Force has a total strength of 1.65 troops, 1.6 people in reserve, and only 1 fighter squadron equipped with 5 F13A "Freedom Fighters" fighters (03) and 5 F2B two-seater fighters, of which Five of them were obsolete aircraft purchased from South Korea in 5, and some were given to the Philippines by the Taiwan authorities through the United States at a price of US$1998.

The F5A "Freedom Fighter" fighter is a very old fighter, and its data cannot even be found in various manuals published in the past 20 years. The F5 fighter jet was designed in 1955. Due to its poor performance, it could not meet the minimum requirements of the US military. In 1962, it was put into production as a low-end fighter jet dedicated to aiding small countries. It has been more than 40 years so far.

The aircraft has a maximum speed of Mach 1.4, and can only fly at subsonic speeds when carrying weapons or at low altitudes.There are two 2mm cannons inside the machine, and the maximum external load is 20 tons, but the combat radius is only a pitiful 2.8 kilometers.It can also be said that this kind of aircraft may be useful to frighten pirates, but if you want to fight a modern war, they are just some living coffins for making widows.

The organization of the Philippine Air Force is also very strange. They even have 2 anti-riot squadrons, equipped with 10 OV21 "North American Mustangs". This is a very special two-seat twin-engine turboprop aircraft. It has been 1965 years, and it can carry 37 tons of bombs and rockets, and there are four 2.08mm machine guns on board.This aircraft has a huge cockpit with excellent visibility, and a lightly armored pilot's seat, and it has been relatively successful against rioters.

The ingenuity of this classic aircraft also has a rear cargo compartment, which can carry sundries or wounded soldiers. However, when fighting regular army or naval ships, the OV400 North American Mustang with a speed of less than 10 kilometers per hour will undoubtedly become a good slow-moving air target.

In fact, the Philippine Air Force was not so declining in the past. In the mid-80s, they still had 8 F35H fighters and 5 F19A fighters.But later, as the aircraft aged and scrapped, and there were no new fighters to supplement, its strength gradually declined, but it was thanks to the United States that it finally fell into such a poor situation.

In the 90s of the last century, there were many terrorist military coups that claimed to be supported by the United States. In one of the large-scale military coups, the Filipino government retreated steadily. After making a guarantee to take care of the interests of the United States to the greatest extent, the United States kicked the terrorists away without hesitation, turned to support the Filipino government, and immediately dispatched the air force to intervene.

American F4 Phantom fighter jets that took off from Filipino land fiercely attacked Filipino Air Force fighter planes and their personnel that were said to have joined the coup, and carried out ultra-low-altitude armed demonstrations over Manila, the capital of Filipino.The Philippine terrorists who lost the support of the United States quickly surrendered, and the Philippine Air Force was almost completely wiped out in this military coup.The Yankees played a typical game of killing two birds with one stone. Later, the United States signed a mutual defense treaty with Filipino, firmly controlling the national defense of Filipino.

进过七拼八凑，目前腓国还有3个战斗直升机中队，2个运输直升机中队，3个运输机中队，4个教练机中队，1个海空救援直升机中队、2个联络中队，1个总统座机联队。携带武器的运输直升机包括：贝尔UH1U／M型62架、AUH76型16架、休斯500／520MD型21架。

这些直升机对付叛军和游击队尚可，但对实施先发制人打击的，具有基本防空能力的海军及陆军，根本无法构成任何威胁。另外腓国空军还有运输直升机：贝尔205型55架、UH1H型16架。S70A型“黑鹰”直升机2架、SA330型直升机2架。海上侦察机：F27M型2架。侦察机：RT33A型6架。

另外还有教练机：T33A型6架、T41D型15架、SF260TP型15架、S211型12架，意大利生产的S211型教练机外形与使用方式都与华夏的K8相近，该机具有作战能力，不过最大外挂只有660公斤，其战斗力可想而知。

Both the President of the Philippines and the chief of the Air Force General Staff have admitted that the existing equipment of the Air Force is not only not enough to defend the airspace and territorial waters, it is not even enough to deal with bandits like the Abu Sayyaf armed forces.However, in order to contain China, the United States and Taiwan are preparing to provide Philip with various air force weapons free of charge. The air force may be strengthened in the future, but now it is too late anyway.

Huajiang aircraft carrier has four sets of electromagnetic ejection equipment, which can take off four J-18 fighters at the same time in a very short period of time. Electromagnetic ejection uses electromagnetic energy to push the ejected object to move outward, and can work continuously. The interval between two launches is The ejection weight can be adjusted arbitrarily in less than 2 minutes, which can not only eject the large-tonnage early warning aircraft, but also reduce the electromagnetic force to eject the UAV.

After adopting electromagnetic launch, the original 2 catapults on the aircraft carrier can be upgraded to 4 catapults. On aircraft carriers with limited aircraft, the attendance rate of aircraft can be increased, and electromagnetic catapults take up less space. They can be equipped on light aircraft carriers, even on amphibious assault ships. Equip and launch the UCAV.

The successful development of this kind of equipment is mainly due to the Liaodong Ship Power Research Institute. In order to develop the electromagnetic ejection technology, Ssangyong Group invested a large sum of money, and it took five years to develop it successfully.The United States is still in the experimental stage until now, which means that China is far ahead of the United States in aircraft carrier ejection technology.

Of course, this set of technology is also extremely confidential. On the two aircraft carriers that have just been launched in Huaxia and the Huajiang aircraft carrier that has been modernized, they still retain the appearance of steam catapults, but most of these steam catapult equipment are just deaf ears. , in order to confuse the enemy.

After the combat order was issued, the electromagnetic ejection equipment on the Huajiang aircraft carrier exerted great power. An Air Police 220 early warning aircraft and sixteen J-18 fighters were all ejected into the air in less than 15 minutes.The J-18 formed three formations in the air, four were used to destroy the Filipino Air Force, four were used to attack the ships of the Filipino Navy going out to sea, and the other eight were tasked with guarding the Changi military base in Singapore.

At the same time, the airport and naval port of Filipino were also busy in a mess. Due to the serious corruption and corruption of the Filipino army, and the fact that Filipino had the protection of the United States, no one would dare to touch them. All the planes lack proper maintenance, not to mention those pilots, the training time is only a few hundred hours a year, not even a fraction of that of the China Air Force.If this kind of army is to be used to fight, it is purely used as cannon fodder.

But now they don’t want to go to war. The Congress announced that they will defend their territory with blood and life. President Abrahim ordered all fighter planes to go into the air and all ships to go to sea to stop China’s mixed naval formation.Under the supervision of the pistol-wielding supervising team, after some messy preparations, the Philippine Air Force took off the first batch of eight F5A freedom fighter fighters. A formation was formed in the air, and they staggered towards the mixed formation of the Huaxia Navy.

Modern warfare is all about technology. As soon as the Filipino air force took off, it was discovered by the Chinese early warning aircraft and ordered four J-18s to meet it. To be honest, to deal with the old-fashioned fighters of the Filipinos, the pilots of the J-18 We always feel that killing chickens is overkill. Major Guo Baolu, the lead pilot, received the combat command from the AWACS and immediately issued a combat command to the other pilots: "Attention, Huajiang Second Team, I am 01, and all aircraft will turn on their active radars Search. 02 followed me to deal with the eight F5As in front, and 03 and 04 were responsible for the follow-up. There is no need to launch missiles to deal with this kind of old-fashioned aircraft, let them taste the power of our cannon."

According to the regulations, fighter planes must implement radio silence before the air battle, let alone turn on the active radar in advance. So many taboos.First of all, there is no radar on the F-5A, and the electronic communication equipment is extremely backward. Secondly, there are no missiles on the F5A. Letting this kind of aircraft engage in air combat with the J-18 is like letting a duck fight an eagle. The outcome does not matter. I know it too.

Text 620 Chapter [-] One-sided Air Combat

What Guo Baolu didn't expect was that although his team wiped out eight planes in Philippe, he was punished after the war because he violated the regulations. ) If Mu Guoxing hadn’t intervened after learning about this matter, maybe Guo Baolu, a major, would have become a captain. Of course, this is all for later.

After Guo Baolu finished his speech, he pushed the gas pedal, led his formation of J-18 fighters, and rushed towards the fighters of Feiguo viciously.

This one-sided air battle was like an exercise. There was no suspense at all. After a face-to-face encounter, the two planes of the other party plunged into the sea with thick smoke.In less than 3 minutes, the opponent had only two planes left.

On weekdays, the pilots of Philippe only bully and bully the armed forces, and they fly up to show off during the National Day. They have seen such advanced fighters and this kind of bullying style.Seeing his companions falling down like the sea one after another with billowing smoke, the remaining two planes were terrified, stepped up the throttle and fled towards the home country.

Guo Baolu, who is on the rise, can't let the remaining two Filipino fighters run away, and chases after him with his wingmen. Although the poor F5A has a theoretical maximum speed of Mach 1.4, it is still on paper. , or it can only be achieved when the aircraft is in good condition. After so many years of neglect of maintenance, it is considered lucky for them to reach Mach one.

Guo Baolu also bullied Fei Guo for having no air defense force. He chased after Fei Guo and pressed the button of the cannon fiercely. Two F5A fighter planes were hit and exploded in the air.In this way, Guo Baolu still couldn’t let go of his hatred, so he flew the plane to the sky above Manila, and flew over Manila twice at an ultra-low altitude. up.

Of the four air-to-air missiles and four anti-ship missiles hanging on the plane, none of them were used, which made Guo Baolu very unwilling.When passing by the sky over the Manila Naval Port, he saw the four old ships of the Philip Kingdom slowly heading out of the port. Guo Baolu greeted his wingmen, and rushed down with the nose of the plane, facing the two largest Philip ships. The warship fired four anti-ship missiles, and his wingman was also unambiguous, and also hit the other two Philippine Navy ships at the same time. Seeing that the four ships were all on fire, Guo Baolu was so proud With his formation, he left the sky over Feiguo and flew towards the aircraft carrier Huajiang.

In this air battle, Guo Baolu achieved the greatest results. He and his wingman shot down eight enemy planes and four ships. It stands to reason that they should be commended, but Guo Baolu not only did not receive any commendation, but was shot down by the flight commander as soon as he landed. He criticized severely and ordered him to ground the flight and wait for processing.The other four pilots who were in charge of attacking surface ships also turned their eyebrows coldly when they saw Guo Baolu, saying that he was so mean that he took all the credit away from them.

The battle with the Philippine navy and air force was quite easy, but it was not so easy for the eight J-18 fighters that served as the guard mission of the Changi military base.

Lieutenant Colonel Fan Yudong, who was in command of the air, received a combat order from the airborne early warning aircraft shortly after takeoff, and the U.S. military at Changi Military Base also took off eight F22 fighter jets.Since China and the United States have imposed strict restrictions on this conflict, no one dared to fire the first shot at this time. Sixteen planes chased one-on-one in the air. After a while, the F-22 locked on the J-18. After a while, the J-18 locked on the F22 again. The air combat entered the fighting stage.In this case, not only is it difficult for the fire control radar to aim at the target, but it is also impossible to use medium-range air-to-air missiles to attack enemy aircraft entangled with friendly aircraft under the force of the IFF. The difference in performance of the model aircraft is reflected. The J-18 has the upper hand in this chase with its good air maneuverability, while the F22 pays too much attention to the ability to attack beyond visual range and stealth, and it is inferior to the F-18 in air maneuverability. The J-18 was launched, and in the end, eight J-22s locked the opponent firmly with missiles. The F18 pilots tried their best to get rid of the J-[-].

I have to say that the pilots of the U.S. Air Force have superb flying skills. They are many times better than the rookies in Philipines. I realized that they would never be able to please China's J-3 aircraft.James is also rejoicing at this time, fortunately, he didn't fire the first shot just now, otherwise, of the eight F18s he brought out today, absolutely none of them would be able to fly back.

James sighed, piloted the plane and made an internationally accepted action of admitting defeat, called the fleet to form a non-combat formation, and flew to the Changi military base under the escort of eight Huaxia J-18 fighter jets.

Although neither side fired a single shot or bullet in this air battle, it was extremely thrilling. Afterwards, the air forces of the two countries seriously summarized the air chase and found out their own gaps.Huaxia believes that the flying skills of U.S. Air Force pilots are slightly higher than those of Chinese pilots. The most important thing is that their stand-alone tactics are more flexible and they have a good sense of air coordination.

The United States believes that Huaxia's pilots are no longer rookies in the past, and they also have high flying skills. They are especially admired by the excellent maneuverability of the J-18.The American Locke Martin company has always boasted how powerful the F22 fighter is, but now it seems that it is slightly inferior to the J-18 in every aspect.

The waterway of the Manila Naval Port was blocked by the four ships sunk by Guo Baolu. Before the Filipino naval ships from other ports could assemble at sea, they were called by four other J-18s one by one. The nimble boat was also sunk by the rapid-fire artillery of the mixed formation of destroyers and frigates.For a while, the coastal waters of the Philip Kingdom were in flames, and there were burning Philip Kingdom naval ships everywhere.This one-sided naval and air battle took less than 10 minutes, and the navy and air force of Philip was completely wiped out by Huaxia's aircraft carrier battle group.

It can also be said that China's attack on the Filipino navy and air force was completely caused by the Filipino government, which is also the result that Huaxia most hopes to see.If the Filipino government exercises restraint and cooperates with Huaxia's overseas Chinese protection operation, it is really difficult for Huaxia to take the initiative to attack Filipino.

This rogue president, Ablen, once again got into the trap set by China. This is also because Ablen misjudged the situation. In his opinion, the United States and Philipines had signed a common defense treaty.The United States is obliged to undertake the defense of the Philippine country, and the Changi military base in Singapore is very close to the Philippine country, so he dared to provoke China again and again without fear.
