In the gloomy sky, after Shi Yuan lost a point, the confrontation between two high-performance third-generation fighter jets was still going on, and it tended to become more and more intense.

"We can't continue like this. We must find a way to fight back, otherwise I will lose this battle."

Shi Yuan had a solemn look on his face, his attention was highly concentrated, and his mind was running at high speed like a computer, thinking about countermeasures.

"The J-10 series fighters have an extra pair of canards, which enhances the instantaneous flight and maneuverability. This is the advantage of all canard aircraft. However, in comparison, the stability is far behind. Well, I

You can take advantage of it.”

Thinking of the performance characteristics and data introduction about the J-10A fighter in the regiment, Shi Yuan's eyes lit up and he thought of a countermeasure.

The so-called instantaneous rotation refers to the ability to simply change the direction of the aircraft nose, without considering other factors, only looking at the instantaneous maximum angular velocity. In other words, it is at the expense of height and speed.

Stability refers to the maximum angle that can be maintained stably without changing the speed or altitude. At this time, the total energy of the aircraft does not change.

If we want to use a metaphor to illustrate it vividly, instantaneous play is like explosive power, and stable play is like endurance.

The ideal thing for a fighter jet is of course to have both super explosive power and strong endurance.

However, these two performance indicators are naturally conflicting with each other, and it is impossible to take into account both.

At present, the aerodynamic layout of all fighter aircraft in the world can only focus on one performance and weaken the other performance, and cannot completely take into account both.

Just like the domestic J-10 series, J-20, J-15 and other canard-equipped fighters, their instantaneous performance is very good, but their stability is poor; while the J-11 series and J-16 are on the contrary, their stability performance is poor.

Very good, the instantaneous disk is relatively weak.

The battle in the sky seemed to have gone on for a long time, and it seemed very long, but in fact it was very short.

From the time Yang Luolasheng launched the attack to the time Shi Yuan was hit, only a little over a minute passed.

The J-11BG, which lost a point first and faced a high threat, finally found an opportunity to counterattack after some escape maneuvers and quickly climbed up.

"drop!"

The warning sound of the radar warning system came as Shi Yuan expected and it was not late.

After climbing for about a second, Shi Yuan got rid of the altitude disadvantage. He calmly and quickly pushed the rudder lever, performed a roller maneuver, and launched an attack while avoiding the lock.

The roller maneuver confuses the opponent with a spiral movement, making it difficult to judge one's own flight path. It is a simple and practical maneuver that combines attack and defense.

"Roller motor? Interesting."

In the 301 J-10C cockpit, Yang Luo noticed the J-11BG's actions, a smile appeared on his face, he shook his head slightly, and instantly understood the other party's intention.

Yang Luo pulled the lever to the end without hesitation and controlled the fighter plane under him to enter the roller maneuver.

A high instantaneous overload fell on Yang Luo, pressing him firmly against the ejection seat. The scene in his field of vision was almost spinning.

The best way to deal with the roller maneuver is to enter the roller maneuver yourself.

The two fighter planes were entangled with each other, spiraling towards each other, and the relative distance plummeted like an assertion.

This is a very dangerous flying maneuver.

Dual-plane hedging is inherently dangerous, and it greatly tests the pilot's courage and courage, as well as his flying skills. A slight mistake can lead to death, and coupled with the fact that he is in a roller maneuver, the degree of danger increases exponentially.

That is to say, both of them are highly skilled and courageous people. If they were ordinary pilots, they would have been so frightened that they had to withdraw from the maneuver and make an emergency turn.

In general air combat training, dual-plane hedging is an absolutely prohibited flight maneuver.

Soon, the two fighter planes trailed silk-like trail clouds, criss-crossed in precession in a flexible and light manner, and flew towards each other's back.

When you are closest, you are almost face to face, and you can almost see everything in the other person's cockpit. If it were not isolated by the flight helmet, you can even see the sweat on the other person's forehead.

At the moment of intersection, Shi Yuan looked into the cockpit of the 301 J-10C, released his left hand holding the throttle, gave a thumbs up, and gave Yang Luo high praise.

As if they were connected, at the same moment, Yang Luo also raised his left thumb, which happened to be seen by Shi Yuan.

"Interesting young man."

Shi Yuan nodded with a smile and muttered to himself. Then, he pedaled the rudder lever in the reverse direction. After changing out of the roller maneuver, he pushed the throttle forward hard and turned on the afterburner.

The roller maneuver consumed too much energy, and the speed dropped to less than 400 kilometers per hour. It was necessary to accelerate and accumulate energy.

"boom!"

The roar of the two WS-10 Taihang nest fan aircraft engines became louder and louder, and the jagged tail nozzles emitted hotter blue tail flames, erupting with terrifying thrust.

"The J-10C is also equipped with a three-dimensional vector engine. If the prediction is correct, he should also be able to perform this maneuver, and then I should have a chance to attack."

After accelerating for more than a second, the speed of the J-11BG increased a lot. Shi Yuan, who looked calm, thought, and decisively chose to pull the stick backward to disconnect the angle of attack limit...

In an instant, the nose of the J-11BG was raised, exceeding the maximum angle of attack, climbing upwards at extremely high speed, and rapidly reducing its speed.

Shi Yuan then controlled the three-dimensional vector aviation engine to deflect the airflow from the tail nozzle, causing the fighter jet to rotate at high speed vector and change its course.

When the J-11BG climbed to the highest point, the nose and fuselage had rotated 180 degrees, which was opposite to the original flight direction.

This is the Herbst maneuver!

180 degree turn is the fastest maneuver!

The J-11BG equipped with a three-dimensional vector aviation engine can easily perform various over-stall maneuvers.

Although the entire maneuvering process of the J-11BG is not perfect, there are not many flaws and there is no sense of jerkiness at all.

"It's really a turnaround."

Shi Yuan gasped for air. He took advantage of the moment he just turned his head and looked forward. As expected, he saw the 301 J-10C doing the Herbst maneuver. The fuselage had turned more than 100 degrees.

About to complete the U-turn.

"Fortunately, the J-11BG's stability performance is better than that of the J-10C, and it consumes less energy during roller maneuvers, so I entered the Herbst maneuver first."

Without any explanation, Shi Yuan didn't even care about the dive acceleration. He quickly illuminated the fire control radar, locked the helmet sight, and entered the attack mode.

"drop!"

In the 301 cockpit, a sharp and urgent alarm sounded.

"Just one second, just one second too late to enter. Hey, misjudgment, why did I..."

Yang Luo, who was in the cockpit, wanted to slap himself twice, and regretted using the Herbst maneuver.

Now he has no means at all and cannot carry out effective operations at all.

At this time, the 301 J-10C has not yet completely turned its nose, its speed has reached the lowest point of the entire Herbst, and it is currently in a stall state.

Even if Yang Luo immediately stopped the maneuver and used a dive to increase speed, it would be of no avail because he could not maneuver to avoid radar locking.

When two planes fight, use your own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses.

Shi Yuan made good use of the better stability performance of the J-11BG than the J-10C, completed the Herbst maneuver first, and then had this precious attack opportunity.

In less than two seconds, the active phased array radar locked and intercepted various flight data of the target, the photoelectric aiming sensor system measured the distance, and the central computer completed the data calculation and wrote the firing parameter information into the close-range combat missile for processing

In the device, the missile enters the ready launch state.

"With one point scored, we're tied."

Without any hesitation, Shi Yuan immediately pressed the weapon launch button on the top of the joystick.

In an instant, a close combat training round ignited, detached from its pylon, and flew towards the 301 J-10C like an arrow from a string.

"drop!"

Listening to the danger warning that was converted into an approaching missile warning system, Yang Luowei could only smile bitterly and had no choice but to take the missile.

Without speed, how can you maneuver?

In aerial combat, one wrong move could lead to a fatal disaster.

After being hit by a missile, the 301 used the power of the dive to bring its speed back to subsonic speed, once again showing its extremely excellent maneuverability, and fought with the J-11BG.

The two fighter planes of different models showed ferocious fighting postures, each pulling out a complex and dazzling flight trajectory, fully exerting their respective maneuverability, trying to seize the attack position again and win another point for themselves.

Yang Luo's face was calm, and he was not impatient because he lost a point. He was concentrating on controlling the fighter plane, and cast his bright eyes in the direction of the J-11BG's maneuver.

Push up the throttle valve,

tie rod,

Tread the rudder.

"boom!"

As the WS-10C Taihang aircraft engine outputs more powerful power, its engine roar becomes louder, shaking the world.

The 301 J-10C's mid-range movable canards on the leading edge are deflected to the optimal angle, exerting the ultimate efficiency of the aerodynamic layout and sweeping toward the opponent at extremely high speeds.

attack!

Offense is the best defense.

Fighters are born to attack.

In extremely dangerous single-player close combat, blindly defending means giving up the initiative.

Shi Yuan showed no sign of weakness, pushed the throttle valve to the top, tilted the fuselage to the left lever, lowered the nose of the aircraft, giving up the not-so-great height advantage gained from the Herbst maneuver, and with all the momentum,

Pull out a beautiful arc and try to seize the attacking position.

Height is an advantage, but when the height difference is not big, the advantage is not obvious, it doesn't matter whether you use it or not, and it cannot determine the direction of the battle.
