Chapter 123： R-Ninety-Eight's Attack

?Attack on civil aviation aircraft is a very bad behavior. Since the end of World War II, there have been four accidental hits on passenger planes around the world. Israel shot down passenger planes in Sweden and Libya twice. Once the Bulgarian Air Force shot down an Israeli airliner, and another time, Huaxia shot down a British airliner.

As the two poles under the Iron Curtain confrontation, there is no precedent for directly shooting down a passenger plane.

Moreover, when we just arrived, our side had already passed through the Soviet Union's Kamchatka Peninsula and directly crossed the other side's airspace, and the other side did not respond. Now, if you cross over from Sakhalin Island, you should not encounter any major problems.

In the entire crew, only the captain and the main driver knew the truth of the matter. They were instructed by the US intelligence agency to conduct a reconnaissance on the Soviet Union during this flight.

The United States no longer dared to use the Blackbird reconnaissance plane to conduct reconnaissance on the Soviet airspace, and wanted to know some of the Soviets’ deployments. Especially recently, the Soviets’ military movements in the Far East have been frequent. With a large number of troops deployed on Sakhalin, it may be possible to conduct a cross-sea battle, cross the short Soya Strait, and go directly from Sakhalin to Hokkaido.

Do the Soviets dare? Maybe.

In order to determine the military deployment of the Soviets, a reconnaissance was needed. However, the Blackbird reconnaissance plane did not dare to use it, so the Americans thought of using civil airliners.

In history, there have been many incidents of using civil aviation passenger planes to conduct investigations. Although they serve the interests of the country, it is a shameless act to risk the lives of the whole aircraft and use the morality of the other side to fetter the other side.

In particular, the people on the airliner were completely unaware. It was the shameless top that put them in a crisis.

Although this is an ordinary civil airliner, this Boeing 747 was before joining Korean Air. Served in the South Korean Air Force, under the belly. It has been modified for a long time, and it has sensitive optical cameras, infrared cameras and other equipment, which can take clear pictures of the ground.

They need to fly over Sakhalin, and they need to take pictures there for the rear sector to use.

The captain and the main driver are both personnel who have served in the Korean Air Force. In addition to their current status as employees of Korean Air, they are in many cases. Also obey the above command.

This time, after refueling from Anchorage Airport in Alaska, the flight orientation was deviated after takeoff. However, there was a tacit understanding that the civil aviation guidance station on the way did not give any hints at all. After takeoff, it deviates from the route by five degrees. Can fly over the Soviet Kamchatka Peninsula and Sakhalin.

The captain is very stable, this is not the first time he has performed this kind of thing. His psychological quality is very good, but the main driver does not have such great confidence.

"Captain. I seemed to hear a tom-tom sound just now. Are those two Soviet fighter jets firing shells at us?" the pilot continued to ask.

At this time, there were only two of them in the cabin, and the main driver was a little guilty.

"Idiot, haven't you been in the Air Force?" the captain said: "The night fighter jets use shells that combine high-explosive shells and tracer shells to indicate the trajectory. You just saw that there are Tracer bullets?"

The captain flew the f-86 before entering civil aviation. He is also an old pilot, and actually did not participate in overnight flights . Only top pilots fly at night. Haven't seen a pig run before, have you always eaten pork? The captain still knows this.

Just when the opponent intercepted. He knew it and knew that there were two Soviet planes watching, but he didn't know that the Soviet plane had indeed fired a warning cannon just now, but the cannon's shells really didn't have tracer shells!

He is very confident that the two planes have been flying with them for so long, and they haven't opened fire on him. He must have confirmed that this is a lost passenger plane! If that's the case, then we have been lost in the past!

After flying this mission, he will have enough salary to go to Hawaii to buy a piece of land, and live there for the rest of his life.

Little did he know, this would be his last flight.

"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, there was a huge roar outside.

With this roar, the report light of the engine fire alarm flashed on the dashboard in front of the cabin.

"Oops!" The main driver suddenly shouted: "Engine, we lost the No. 1 engine!"

If he had stood outside at this time, he would not have shouted, and he would have knelt down tremblingly.

With the explosion of the missile and the hit of the Boeing 747, the most famous downing of a South Korean airliner in the Cold War occurred. This was the most mysterious air crash in the Cold War confrontation known as the 311 Air Crash. The inferences and investigations of the incident have attracted the interest of countless experts, and countless papers have been published.

In the whole incident, as the most important party, Captain Osipovich was ordered to fire and shoot down the large invading target without any mistakes. The only mistake was that Captain Osipovich used the r-98 missile!

R-98, the Western code name aa-3 "Anab", began to be equipped with the former Soviet Air Force in 1963. This is the first medium-range air-to-air missile in the Soviet Union with interchangeable semi-active radar and infrared seeker, with a range of 26 km.

(With the technology of the 1960s, with a range of more than ten kilometers, it can almost be called a medium-range air-to-air missile.)

This kind of projectile adopts a duck-type aerodynamic layout. 4 small cut-tip triangular control surfaces are installed at the rear of the warhead, 4 large cut-tip triangular wings are installed at the rear of the projectile, and each of the 4 wings has a rear edge. Roll stabilizer. From the appearance point of view, more emphasis is placed on maneuverability, although in fact this missile is prepared for NATO bombers.

And the warhead of this missile is forty kilograms of charge, which is also the consistent style of the Soviet Union, and the warhead must be large! It doesn't matter if the range is closer! To be able to put a 40kg warhead on a missile with a total weight of 260kg, only the Soviets could do it.

Now, because of this huge warhead! If Captain Osipovich used the r-60 missile, it would at most destroy one of the opponent's engines and force the opponent to make a forced landing, but now, Captain Osipovich first used the r-98. When this missile chases When the engine was on, when the explosion occurred, the warhead not only destroyed the engine, but also destroyed the half of the wing connected to the engine.

The wing was burning, lost an engine, and lost half of the wing. The aerodynamic performance of this Boeing 747 was completely destroyed in an instant. Under the action of lift, the fuselage began to move towards the half of the wing at an incredible speed. The direction rolled over, and at the same time, the nose of the plane went down and began to fall. (To be continued.)
