98: This is the Sky Claw!
"What! How is that possible?"
He simply didn't believe that such a highly destructive missile could be carried by a fighter jet.
In Kim Geun-seok's understanding, aerial combat involved mutual machine gun fire, or even Challengers sticking their heads out of the cockpit to spray bullets with various firearms.
Now he was being told that the enemy's fighter jets could carry missiles?
Kim Geun-seok was about to voice his doubts when he suddenly saw something flickering on the distant horizon.
Reports from the pilots also came through on the radio.
"Young Master, enemy aircraft spotted to the north!"
"Report! Enemy aircraft spotted to the south!"
"Enemy aircraft spotted to the east!"
"Report, Young Master! Enemy aircraft also appearing to the west!"
...
Kim Geun-seok's heart suddenly constricted, as if he realized some immense crisis was quietly approaching.
He looked closely again, and indeed, enemy aircraft silhouettes had appeared from all directions.
Dense swarms of fighter jets almost covered the entire sky, casting a heavy shadow over the originally pristine white expanse.
They were arranged in perfect order, one after another, like precise gears turning, gradually forming a circle that tightly surrounded Kim Geun-seok's fighter jet formation.
It was like a huge black ring, locking them in tightly!
There truly was an ambush!
It turned out that the Mao Xiong Country wasn't without air power; it had been hidden amidst the thick fog and heavy snow, like a majestic eagle concealed deep within the mountains, always ready to spread its wings and soar.
At this moment, the enemy fighter jets were less than a hundred kilometers from the Challenger formation, only then could their outlines be seen.
He carefully observed the design of these enemy aircraft; these fighter jets had unique designs. From a distance, although they seemed slightly smaller than the Black Hawk Fighters, they exuded an imposing aura.
They were like a flock of hunting falcons, with sharp gazes, tightly fixated on their prey, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.
Regardless of the shape of their fuselages or their flight trajectories, they seemed even more advanced than his own Black Hawk Fighters.
From the smooth lines of their fuselages to the precise flight paths, these enemy aircraft displayed an unimaginable level of advanced performance.
Their fuselages were painted silver-white, allowing them to conceal themselves in the harsh environment of wind and snow, making them difficult to detect.
The most terrifying thing was that the number of enemy aircraft seemed to be no less than that of the Challengers.
To form such a circle in the air, the number had to be at least 5,000 aircraft.
"I didn't expect... Lin Ye really did master fighter jet technology too." Kim Geun-seok gasped.
Actually, it made sense; since Lin Ye had mastered carrier-based aircraft technology, how could he not have fighter jet technology?
These things were completely interconnected; it was just his one-sided fantasy before.
Kim Geun-seok couldn't quite explain why, but just by looking at them, he felt that the enemy's fighter jets were even more advanced than the Kim family's Black Hawk Fighters!
This could be attributed to his keen intuition developed through years of aerospace research.
Moreover, he could be certain that the design of these fighter jets had definitely not appeared in Lin Ye's previous instance, Raging Sea.
This was absolutely an aerial weapon Lin Ye designed specifically for this instance!
...
Regardless of how his command abilities were not to be commented on, Kim Geun-seok's vision was indeed good.
At this moment, forming the encirclement over Moscow were the Mao Xiong Country's "Aerial Claws," the Su-57!
This was also the top-tier fighter jet on Blue Star.
The stealth of the Su-57 was actually not bad. Although there was indeed a gap compared to Eagle Country's F-22, in this world, it was definitely the fighter jet with the best stealth.
When Lin Ye designed it in Genesis Space, he specifically changed the original camouflage color of the Su-57 to white, which, combined with the blizzard weather in the instance, further greatly enhanced the Su-57's stealth.
It was precisely because of this that Kim Geun-seok had never discovered the Su-57's tracks. In fact, from the moment they entered the 500-kilometer radius around Moscow, they had already been locked onto by the Su-57.
And the way the Su-57 attacked Kim Geun-seok's formation just now was by using the ultra-long-range air-to-air missiles carried on the Su-57 fighter jet.
The Su-57 fighter jet can carry 10 tons of various weapons!
More than ten types of the latest weapons were developed for it, including various types of missiles and guided aerial bombs!
There were three types of air-to-air missiles alone loaded on it.
There were medium-range air-to-air missiles with a range of 100-200 kilometers, and long-range air-to-air missiles with a range of over 300 kilometers.
There were even ultra-long-range air-to-air missiles with a range of up to 400 kilometers!
Therefore, as long as Kim Geun-seok's formation entered the 400-kilometer range of Moscow's main city, it would automatically trigger the Su-57's automatic countermeasure!
And this distance was far greater than Kim Geun-seok's reconnaissance range!
-------------------------------------
After a moment of hesitation, Kim Geun-seok had a plan in mind.
"All fighter jets, listen up! Do not engage the enemy aircraft!"
"All disperse! Proceed directly to bomb Moscow! Bomb this main city directly!"
After all, as a top instance Designer, Kim Geun-seok remained very calm.
He knew that engaging enemy aircraft was meaningless.
Regardless of the enemy aircraft's combat power, their numbers were not inferior to the Challenger Camp. Engaging in aerial dogfights would only cause the Challenger Camp to suffer losses in combat power!
The objective of the mission was to breach the main city; as long as Moscow was flattened, the mission would be considered complete.
Now, ordering all fighter jets to disperse was to prevent the enemy's firepower from concentrating. The outer fighter jets might be shot down, but as long as the inner circle of fighter jets remained intact and could hold out until Moscow was bombed, that would suffice.
He still had 4,600 fighter jets; as long as they could hold out for even ten minutes, it would be enough to complete the mission!
There was no need to spend time dealing with the enemy Air Force!
"Directive received!"
"Directive received!"
Upon receiving the directive, the fighter jet formation immediately began to act.
Like exploding fireworks, they scattered in all directions, no longer maintaining any formation.
Their objective was clear: to create chaos, tear through the enemy's defenses, and buy valuable time for bombing Moscow.
However, the Mao Xiong Country's fighter jet formation seemed to have anticipated Kim Geun-seok's movements.
They immediately began to accelerate towards the Challenger formation's overhead position, rolling and twisting in the air, executing one strange arc after another.
If Kim Geun-seok could travel to Blue Star, he would know that this aerial maneuver was the famous "Pendulum Maneuver"!
It was a classic shot in many blockbuster movies!
As one Su-57 after another rotated, countless missiles, combined with a hail of machine gun fire, directly converged into a massive black dome, pressing down hard on the Challenger formation!
