Tomcat pilots have to wait on their fighter jets like a nanny. If they are a little careless, the Tomcat fighter jets will become emotional like children, roaring and panting from time to time.
Later U.S. Navy Secretary Lyman, who used to be a Tomcat pilot, once complained in private: "TF30 and F-14 can be said to be the worst engine and airframe combination!"
Even though there are sensors in the air intake of the Tomcat to monitor the air flow, there are still frequent accidents caused by the compressor stall causing the engine to stop, and there have even been several vicious accidents in which the blades fell off and penetrated the casing, causing the plane to crash. Although Pratt & Whitney has continued to improve, the receiver has been strengthened to prevent breakdown by broken blades, and reliability has improved slightly. However, the problem of this original design cannot be changed. Tomcat pilots must be careful to serve, often at high altitude and low speed, or when switching on and off afterburner and launching missiles, the compressor suddenly stalls...
This is also after the United States introduced the British Spey engine, the Spey engine was improved, and the number was given to TF-41. It was planned to use this engine to replace its own TF30 engine, but the F110 engine was also mature at that time. So the Americans decided to use the F110 engine to improve the Tomcat and became the F-14D Super Tomcat. Unfortunately, it was 84 years later.
The current Tomcat fighter, that is the golden cat, must be served carefully. And now, the pilot of the Tomcat in front, whether for the purpose of getting rid of himself, or to take himself to a low altitude, is a stupid suicide!
The altitude is falling rapidly, and soon, it will reach a height of about one thousand meters. Andre needs to operate his fighter carefully. The aerodynamic rudder surface of the MiG-25 fighter is too large. At this time, the amount of rods must be reduced. Otherwise, excessive aerodynamic torque will occur.
William in front also realized that he had successfully pulled the other party into the low air. He believed that he had brought the MiG-25 into the trap. Now, he only needs to do a few simple movements to get around the other party. Go behind and fire your own Sidewinder missile.
it's time! William pulled the lever back, and the Tomcat quickly recovered from the dive state, intending to return to level flight. At this moment, the air intake blocked a lot of airflow due to the maneuvering of the aircraft and entered the rear. The air of the engine decreases rapidly, the sensor alarms quickly, and the intake air volume changes too fast, which exceeds the engine's capacity!
As if the wind was blowing on the windmill, the compressor of the TF-30, under the impact of the irregular air flow, the speed suddenly became faster and slower, and the compressed air flow became irregular, and the rear blades also failed to work correctly. , the whole engine is like an old man, and started to involuntarily asthma.
Suddenly fast and slow! In this drastic change, the combustion chamber at the back went out in a flash, and was blown out by the strong wind blowing from the front!
Then, the front casing made a sound that made people tremble in the ears. Several blades could not withstand this huge change and were torn apart! A blade with thousands of revolutions, after splitting, is faster than a bullet!
Everywhere they went, they were torn apart.
The hydraulic oil pipe was smashed, and a fire broke out in an instant.
"Engine failure!"
"Turn off the engine!"
"The engine has caught fire!"
"Ejection!"
The radar operator in the rear cabin pulled the red pull tab of the Martin-Baker GRU-7A ejection seat. With the sound of the head-breaking gun breaking the roof, the rocket of the ejection seat ignited, and the seat lifted the cockpit cover. Fly out in the thick smoke.
William in the front cabin followed the ejection. This is also a fixed ejection sequence. He must first try his best to control the plane and create an opportunity for the radar officer in the rear cabin to eject.
Soon, the huge ejection overload made him dizzy for a while. In the air, the human chair separated and the parachute opened. Only then did he open his eyes. , turned smartly, and flew past his eyes.
The red five-star on the wing was so striking, William felt the biting pain on his face from the strong wind.
Damn, I didn't fight the Soviets for two rounds, and I came down, not because my skills were not good enough, but because of the **** engine!
At this time, the turbofan engine of the US Emperor is still imperfect, not to mention the TF30 of the Tomcat fighter, and even the F100 engine is not mature, because the poor performance makes the F-15 lie in a large area. However, when the Americans overcome various defects and thoroughly understand the technical performance of the turbofan engine, all kinds of abnormal engines will come out, like the F119 of later generations, it is simply too powerful to be abnormal!
Andre pushed the joystick and recovered from low altitude, watching the Tomcat fighter leveling in the dive, the overload was only about 4G, but the change in airflow was too obvious, and sure enough the Tomcat fighter's engine couldn't bear it~ www.novelhall.com~ The data in my possession is not wrong.
As long as it escapes the attack of the Phoenix missile at a long distance, after getting close, the MiG-25 fighter is not afraid to fight the Tomcat, because the opponent's engine is too weak!
This time, the other party uses the long-distance PDSTT mode. In this mode, most of the radar energy is irradiated on its own fighter, which triggers the radar warning receiver, so that it can prepare itself in advance. If the other party uses TWS Mode, that is the killer mode. It is silent and will not trigger the radar warning receiver at all. The later Iraqi Falcon Mohammad-Reyer was killed by the Iranian Tomcat fighter.
"032, it's so beautiful, you shot down another American fighter jet, or a Tomcat fighter jet!" Just as Andre entered the return route, a voice came from the earphones.
At high altitude, another MiG-25 fighter did not leave. Although Alexander of 027 received Andre's order and was asked to return, he still stayed and locked the American Tomcat fighter with radar at high altitude. , If Andre is in danger, or more American fighter planes fly, he will join the fight to protect Andre.
As a result, Andre killed his opponent in a neat dive, much to Alexander's admiration.
"I didn't shoot it down, it was the opponent who fell by himself. There is a problem with their engine." Andre said in the radio: "027, the formation returns!"
TF-30, such a bad engine, when will you stop coughing? HahaWelcome readers to come and read. The latest, fastest and most popular serial works are all inMobile users, please come and read.
