Chapter 856 Interception Air Combat (1)
The confrontation between the Baiyu formation and the enemy's supersonic formation was like the fierce collision of two stars, emitting dazzling light.
The White Feather Formation, as the main force among the three formations, is commanded by Air Force Major Huang Shi himself. Its members consist of six Destroyer fighters, six Feiyan jet fighters and six Hornet fighters. Each type of fighter carries different missions and advantages, and together they weave a dense air battle network.
The Destroyer fighters, known for their powerful firepower and thick armor, are the heavy strike force in the formation. They are equipped with advanced airborne radars and long-range air-to-air missiles, and can accurately lock and destroy high-value enemy targets in complex battlefield environments.
The Flying Swallow jet fighters are known for their high maneuverability and flexibility. They are good at performing excellent aerial dance in close combat and inflicting fatal blows on the enemy. The Hornet fighter is a versatile fighter in the formation. It can play an important role in air combat and perform ground support missions. Its multi-purpose performance brings more tactical options to the formation.
On the other hand, the enemy's supersonic formation consisted of twelve Kawasaki Type 3 "Hiyan" fighters and twelve Type 4 "Hayate" fighters, both of which are famous for their high-speed flying capabilities and excellent fire control systems.
The Kawasaki Type 3 "Hiyan" fighter is known for its elegant fuselage design and excellent climbing performance, and can quickly gain high altitude advantage in a short period of time; while the Type 4 "Hayate" fighter has become the backbone of the enemy formation with its powerful firepower and stable flight performance.
The battle was about to break out. Major Huangshi calmly analyzed the battlefield situation in the command cabin. He maintained close contact with the formation members through high-tech communication equipment and constantly adjusted the tactical layout.
"Destroyer formation, use your long-range strike capabilities to prioritize destroying the enemy's command and control nodes!" Major Huangshi issued an order, and the Destroyer formation immediately adjusted its flight posture and launched a fierce attack on the core area of the enemy formation.
At the same time, the Swallow jet fighter formations quickly interspersed between the enemy and our own forces, using their high maneuverability to constantly change their flight trajectories, confusing and distracting the enemy's attention, creating favorable attack conditions for the Destroyer formation. The Hornet fighter formations flexibly cruised on the battlefield, providing fire support for friendly forces and being ready to strike ground targets at any time.
Facing the fierce attack of the White Feather formation, the enemy supersonic formation did not sit still. The Kawasaki Type 3 "Hiyan" fighter took advantage of its supersonic speed and quickly climbed to high altitudes, trying to seize air superiority; while the Type 4 "Swift Wind" fighter relied on its powerful firepower network to launch intensive counterattacks against the White Feather formation.
For a moment, the sky was filled with missile trails and machine gun fire. Fighter jets from both sides intertwined and fought in the air, demonstrating amazing flying skills and fighting will.
Major Huang Shi was closely following the changes in the battlefield situation in the command cabin, knowing that every second was crucial. He constantly communicated the latest battlefield information and tactical adjustment instructions to the formation members through communication equipment.
"Flying Swallow Formation, pay attention to the movements of the enemy's 'Flying Swallow' fighters, and use your flexibility to evade and counterattack!" Major Huang Shi's voice was firm and powerful. His command allowed the Baiyu Formation to always maintain a high degree of coordination and tacit understanding.
In the sky, the roar of machine guns from both sides was like the roar of an ancient god of war, and deadly bullets cut through the sky, weaving into a web of death. Every fighter seemed to have transformed into an angry falcon, with the machine guns on the fuselage spewing out blazing flames, and a metal storm raged in the air, cutting the space into pieces.
As the battle entered a white-hot stage, small aircraft-borne bombs became the main means of attack for both sides. Although these bombs were small, their power should not be underestimated. They drew graceful arcs in the air, like messengers of death, rushing towards the target with destructive power.
Relying on their keen intuition and precise calculations, pilots from both sides continued to drop bombs on each other. Explosions sounded one after another, and flames and black smoke intertwined, turning the sky into a doomsday-like scene.
In such an environment, the pilots' skills were pushed to the extreme. They were like dancers dancing on the edge of a knife, and every roll and every climb was full of thrills.
They skillfully used the maneuverability of the aircraft to move freely through the dense barrage and rain of aerial bombs, like ghosts walking on the edge of life and death.
Some pilots, with their amazing predictive abilities, avoided the threat of death with a sharp turn when the enemy bombs were about to hit them; others used clouds or sunlight as cover to cleverly hide their whereabouts, waiting for the opportunity to give the enemy a fatal blow. Other pilots showed extraordinary courage and wisdom, shuttling back and forth among the enemy formations, not only successfully disrupting the enemy's attack rhythm, but also taking the opportunity to accurately strike important enemy targets.
The entire sky seemed to have turned into a huge battlefield stage, and every pilot was the protagonist on this stage.
In the sky far away from the fierce battle area of the Baiyu formation, the Changfeng and Lankong fighter formations were bravely intercepting the enemy fighter formation that outnumbered them with an almost artistic tacit understanding. Facing an enemy aircraft that was almost three times their own, they were not afraid at all, but instead aroused a more passionate fighting spirit.
"Changfeng Formation, pay attention to the movements of the enemy formation, adopt the 'hunting tactics', and use the speed advantage to launch interspersed attacks!" The commander of the Blue Sky Formation, an experienced Air Force Lieutenant Colonel, issued instructions to the Changfeng Formation through the encrypted communication channel.
"Understood, the Changfeng formation will implement hunting tactics and form a pincer attack with the Blue Sky formation!" The commander of the Changfeng formation, Air Force Major Chen Li, responded quickly. He knew very well that in this battle where the few were fighting the many, only close communication and tacit tactical coordination were the key to victory.
As the order was issued, the Changfeng formation quickly adjusted its flight posture. They shuttled flexibly among the enemy aircraft formations like a group of agile cheetahs. Each fighter seemed to have become a precision-guided missile on the battlefield. They used the kinetic energy advantage generated by high-speed flight to continuously launch surprise attacks on enemy aircraft.
The Blue Sky formation adopted a more robust defensive counterattack strategy. They used the close coordination between the formations to form a solid defense network and neutralized the enemy's offensive one by one. At the same time, they did not forget to look for the flaws of the enemy aircraft, and once they caught the opportunity, they would launch a counterattack without hesitation.
"Blue Sky 2, we have discovered that the enemy's 'Gas' fighter group's right wing is weak, prepare for a flank attack!" A pilot in the Blue Sky formation reported via the intercom.
"Received! The Blue Sky Fleet will adjust its formation and provide you with fire support!" the commander responded quickly.
Such conversations were heard one after another in the communication channels of both sides. The pilots continuously created amazing miracles on the battlefield through superb driving skills, close communication and tacit tactical coordination.
Although the enemy aircraft had an absolute advantage in number, they were unable to gain any advantage in a short period of time due to the tenacious resistance of the Changfeng and Lankong formations. On the contrary, due to the overly dispersed forces, they seemed somewhat powerless when facing the pincer attack of the two formations.
