Chapter 896： Mavericks beat challenger

"Hammer, the fire control system is ready." In the rear cabin of the Tornado fighter, the weapon operator Scythe called to him.

If there is only a hammer, there is still no way to attack. His front cabin can only operate the cannon, and the main weapons are controlled by the rear cabin. As a crew, the two have been partners for three years, and have been good friends since the flight school.

And now, when the hammer was about to take off, the sickle followed without hesitation, and, now, the sickle operated the fire control system without any hesitation, ready to strike on the ground!

Due to the backwardness of the electronic system, the Tornado fighters developed by the most advanced aviation industry in Western Europe are brought together, and the radar is not a real multi-purpose radar. There is no flat-panel slot radar antenna, nor the most advanced processing equipment. This is also a kind of helplessness when the Tornado fighter was developed. Because the electronic technology is not good enough, it can only be divided into ground attack type and air defense interception type. Different equipment achieves combat capability.

The technology of Western Europe has opened a big gap between the United States and the Soviet Union.

Now, what hits the front of the Tornado fighter is the radar code-named Fox Hunter. This radar antenna is an oval inverted card antenna surface, which is used for mapping, identifying and targeting ground and air targets during combat. Airborne weapons provide distance and angle information to the target.

And now, with the radiation of the radar's electromagnetic waves, they have firmly locked on the ground targets, those British tanks!

In NATO's defense, when did it say that British tanks would come to their own air bases? This is clearly infighting! The British, who want to bully the Germans by relying on the American tree, can't do it at all!

"Hammer, return and land immediately, don't make mistakes!" The voice of the tower came from the radio, and the people on the ground were also anxious.

In the past, during the exercise, there were misfires, which were all excusable, but now, this is an active attack! If such an event occurs, the interior of NATO will become a mess!

"Hammer, you must be calm!" Another voice came, it was the voice of the wing commander Hobo, he said: "You are a soldier, you must strictly obey the order! You should return to the voyage now, otherwise, you will We will be shot down!"

When he said this, Hopper was also extremely contradictory in his heart. The British who came opposite had no anti-aircraft missiles, but as an air base, there must be anti-aircraft missiles deployed around.

It's just that using one's own missiles to shoot down one's own plane, if such a thing happened, it would really be a tragedy!

Hooper didn't want to let this happen, he just wanted to persuade his pilot to come back!

Moreover, on the base, American planes also took off.

In this base, the main German air force is stationed, and there is also an American air force. The only thing that can make people breathe a sigh of relief is that the American planes are all A-10, specializing in ground attack. Fighters are also the main force in fighting tanks.

Just after a German Tornado fighter took off, the United States also responded quickly. Two A-10 attack aircraft, mounted two Sidewinder missiles, took off like this, using a ground attack aircraft to perform air combat missions. It is also extremely funny, and now as a party, no one will find it funny, and the efficiency of the Americans' dispatch is too surprising!

It's too late to look back now! Although Hopper was also very angry at the actions of the British, he wanted to restrain the troops and couldn't do anything more outrageous!

"I came up this time, and I didn't plan to go back alive!" At this time, the hammer driving the plane was still stunned and impulsive: "British man, tell you again, get out of my way immediately!"

At this time, the radio was all on the public channel, and everyone could hear the sound. Captain Eller's face suddenly became ugly. He pressed the communicator on his chest and said to it: "The British Fifth Regiment is serving The order of the NATO command to come to Nerfenig Air Force Base to carry out the mission, please give your understanding and cooperation, and we will continue to move forward."

His answer was neither humble nor arrogant. If he was still a little worried, now, hearing the German commander also condemned the plane and threatened to use missiles, Eller felt a little relaxed. If he backed down at this time, the British army would Don't even think about raising your head in front of the German army! How could the army of a group of defeated and surrendered nations frighten the Royal Army of Great Britain!

"Scythe, fire a calf." The sound of the hammer was very clear on the radio: "Aim for the first tank!"

"Understood!" The sickle in the rear compartment has used the radar to provide the Maverick missile with the launch of Zhu Yuan, the TV-guided Maverick missile, and the seeker has firmly locked on the Challenger tank on the ground.

Turning off the radio, the hammer continued: "A little bit, hit the clearing in front of them."

Although he was very excited when he just took off, but now, Hammer's brain has been awake. At this time, he can't really fire on the British When he just took off, he was filled with righteous indignation, and now, he also has to consider more consequences.

However, the attitude of the British is disgusting! They must be taught a lesson, simply hit the open space in front of the other party!

"Understood." The sickle in the rear cabin shouted, and then the launch button was pressed.

A Maverick missile, dragging the flame, flew out from the pylon on the belly and flew towards the ground! As an excellent air-to-ground missile, playing tanks is what the Mavericks are best at!

The TV seeker stared closely at the Challenger tank in the target. It can be seen that the Challenger tank began to move quickly, the engine at the rear accelerated with black smoke, and at the same time, the smoke launcher in the front also started. Constantly releasing black smoke, trying to cover the entire tank.

"Damn, the Germans really dare to launch missiles, hurry, hurry up!" The commander was still shouting loudly, until there was a violent explosion at the top of the turret.

"Boom!" The speed of the Maverick missile is not large, only Mach 1.2. When attacking armored targets, it can only rely on the energy-gathering warhead. Although the charge of the energy-gathering warhead is 37.6 kg, if it hits the challenger When the armor is directly in front of him, he might be able to carry it over.

However, the top of the turret is not on this list! The armor protection of any tank will not be comprehensive, the front armor is the thickest, the side armor and the rear armor are thin, and of all the armor, the thinnest part is the top of the turret!

When the Mavericks missile started to attack the top, the Challenger was drilled through from the top! Then, a louder explosion sounded on the tank, and at the seat ring of the turret, a flame mixed with airflow spurted out, and the ammunition inside exploded!
