Chapter 953 No Target Found

An E-3 early warning aircraft is cruising at an altitude of 8,000 meters over the Netherlands.

Now, the early warning aircraft has been proven to be unsafe. In previous wars, the US early warning aircraft has been attacked by long-range missiles. The Soviets are very abnormal and have developed a terrifying ultra-long-range missile that can attack early warning aircraft from 200 kilometers away!

Therefore, the US early warning aircraft also took sufficient precautions. First of all, their cruise was in the west. If the opponent wanted to come over, there would be at least two or three layers of fire interception network. Even if they could not intercept the opponent's aircraft, they could intercept the missiles fired by the opponent.

After countless upgrades, the United States is no longer powerless against supersonic fighters and missiles. Even the old **** missiles can fight against supersonic targets after the guidance system is upgraded.

At the same time, next to the E-3 early warning aircraft, there are two escorting F-15 fighter jets. After rigorous training, they have mastered the essentials. At critical moments, they can use themselves to block missiles for the E-3. Although it is a bit tragic, it is a necessary method.

Even so, the personnel on the early warning aircraft were a little nervous. They stared at their screens and watched the echoes that kept appearing on them. If they found a target with a very high speed and altitude, they would quickly run away!

However, such a target never appeared, but they did find some fighter planes entering West German airspace from the sky over East Germany!

"Axe Squadron, Axe Squadron, please adjust course to 024 immediately. The invading East German aircraft group has been spotted in airspace No. 16." The guide shouted on the radio.

The West German Air Force lacks effective air superiority fighters, so those coming over must be East German air superiority fighters!

Because until now, the Soviet Union has always claimed that this is the Germans' own business, so the Soviet Air Force should not join the battle yet. So, what will come? The main force of the East German Air Force is the MiG-23 and MiG-29. I hope it will be the MiG-29!

Colonel Lord, an American pilot, is an ace pilot. This ace does not refer to how many planes he has shot down in combat, but to the record of "shooting down" in the routine confrontation exercises held by NATO every year.

Therefore, Colonel Lord is very confident. After several years of running-in, he has become one with the F-15 he is driving. He is very confident that he can shoot down the target in a head-on combat!

Since he had been stationed in Europe all the time, he had never fought against the Soviet MiG-29. He had only intercepted the East German MiG-23 that occasionally invaded the airspace. This made him itchy, and now, as the squadron leader of the Axe Squadron, Colonel Lord was flying an F-15 fighter jet and cruising at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

Looking from here, the sky is clear and cloudless, which is a good day for flying.

"Received, heading adjusted to 024, airspace 16." Colonel Lord replied on the radio, while pushing the joystick to change his heading.

And just to his side, three other F-15 fighter jets changed their course and flew towards the northeast.

In fact, the airspace of all European countries is not large, and it takes only a short flight to reach the border. Now, after turning northeast, Colonel Lord turned on his AN/APG-63 all-weather multi-mode radar and adjusted it to the medium/high PRF search mode, which has the longest search distance and can find the target the fastest.

However, after the bright line circled on the screen, nothing appeared!

What happened? Colonel Lord was a little surprised. According to the information provided by the early warning aircraft, the target was only a few hundred kilometers away from him. He should be able to find it, right?

"Axe Squadron, have you found the target?" At this moment, Colonel Lord thought that his radar was broken. There were four fighter planes in the squadron, so there must be some good ones among the others, right?

"No target found." The voice of the wingman kept coming from the headset.

No target found?

"High PRF mode, speed search." Colonel Lord then switched the radar.

Unable to search for the signal, it may be because the search mode is wrong. He has encountered this phenomenon in previous confrontations. Adjust the search mode and you can find it!

However, after changing the search target, still nothing was found!

"Lookout, lookout, Axe Squadron requests target indication." Colonel Lord could only continue to ask for help from the early warning aircraft.

"The target is right in front, fifty kilometers away." The early warning aircraft immediately responded.

Directly ahead, fifty kilometers? What a joke! My eyesight is quite good. In such a clear sky, I can definitely see the airspace fifty kilometers away, but now, there is nothing there!

Moreover, in the air, the fighter planes were moving very fast and the distance was getting closer and closer, but all the pilots of the Axe Squadron could not see what was in the opposite airspace.

The airspace is so clean, there is not even a fart!

"Lookout, lookout, no target found with the axe," shouted Colonel Lord.

"The target is ten kilometers ahead of you, the target is ten kilometers ahead of you!" At this time, the guide of the early warning aircraft was also anxious. At such a close distance, why didn't they launch an attack? They even reported that they didn't find the target. Could it be that they encountered a UFO?

How is this possible?

The airspace was still clear and clean, with nothing in it. At this moment, Colonel Lord's heart had begun to collapse.

Air combat is based on the premise of finding the target. If you can't find the target, what's the point of attacking? And now, the target indicated by the early warning aircraft is right in front of me, but I can't see it with my eyes, and the radar can't detect it either. What's going on?

Suddenly, Colonel Lord remembered a terrible situation.

Could it be that the Soviets had hacked into NATO's integrated command system, entered the AWACS system, and provided false targets to the AWACS? Otherwise, how could the A-10 fleet have attacked the targets provided by the AWACS, but ended up hitting the Dutch army?

If this is the case, it would be terrible. Giving our side a false target means we gain nothing. So, where is the real target?

At this moment, Colonel Lord was worthy of being an ace pilot for being able to think of these problems calmly. After thinking of this, he would issue a warning, change the search airspace, and conduct an omnidirectional search. The target might be nearby and ready to ambush him!

But there was no time. Before he could open his mouth, a huge explosion was heard in his headphones.

"Boom!" On one side of the formation, an F-15 fighter jet was hit by a missile that came from an unknown direction! It was blown up directly! The missile must be very powerful!
