The situation of the Navy is like this, and the strength of the Air Force is even more pitiful.) The Philippine Air Force has a total of 16,500 troops and a reserve of 16,000 people. It has only one fighter squadron equipped with 13 F5a "Freedom Warrior" fighters (O3) and 2 F5b two-seat fighters, of which 5 were eliminated aircraft purchased from South Korea in 1998, and some were given to the Philippines by the Taiwan authorities through the United States for a price of 1 USD.

The F5a "Freedom Fighter" fighter is a very ancient fighter, and its data cannot be found in various manuals published in the past 20 years. The F5 fighter was designed in 1955. Because its xing power is too poor, it could not meet the minimum requirements of the US military. In 1962, it was put into production as a special assistance country. It has been more than 40 years.

The aircraft has a maximum of Mach 1.4, and it can only fly sub-sound at low altitudes. The weapons inside the aircraft include 2 2o mm cannons, with a maximum plug-in of 2.8 tons, and a combat radius of only a pitiful 2oo kilometers. It can also be said that this kind of aircraft may be useful to scare pirates, but if you want to fight a modern war, it is just a living coffin that makes widows.

The Philippine Air Force is also very strange. They actually have two anti-riot squadrons, equipped with 21 OV1O "North American Mustang" type aircraft, which is a very special two-seater twin-turboprop aircraft. It flew in 1965 and has been 37 years since then. It can carry 2.o8 tons of bombs, rockets, and there are 4 7.62mm machine guns on the plane. This aircraft has a huge cockpit with excellent vision and a pilot seat with light armor. It is quite successful in dealing with violent elements.

This kind of master aircraft has a unique rear cargo hold, which can carry debris or wounded soldiers, but fights regular army or naval ships. The ov1o North American Mustang, which is 40 kilometers away, undoubtedly becomes a good air target for slow movement.

In fact, the Philippine Air Force did not decline like this in the past. In the mid-1980s, they still had 35 F8H fighters and 19 F5A fighters. But later, as the aircraft ageed and scrapped, and there were no new fighter jets to supplement them, their strength gradually declined. However, it was a blessing for the United States to fall into such a poor situation.

In the 1990s, the Philippines repeatedly claimed to be a terrorist military coup supported by the United States. In one of the large-scale military coups, the Philippine government retreated step by step and was about to be unable to hold on, so it had to change its original position. After making a guarantee to maximize the care of the interests of the United States, the United States kicked the terrorists away without hesitation and instead supported the Philippine government, and immediately dispatched the air force to intervene.

The American F4 ghost fighter jets that took off from Philippine land attacked the Philippine Air Force fighter jets and their personnel who were said to have joined the coup, and conducted low-altitude armed demonstrations over the Philippine capital Manila. The Philippine terrorists who lost American support quickly surrendered, and the Philippine Air Force was almost wiped out in this military coup. The Americans played a typical killer kill, and later the United States signed a joint defense treaty with Philippine, firmly controlling Philippine's defense.

After entering the country, there are currently 3 combat helicopter squadrons, 2 transport helicopter squadrons, 3 transport aircraft squadrons, 4 trainer squadrons, 1 sea and air rescue helicopter squadron, 2 liaison squadrons, and 1 presidential landline wing. The transport helicopters carrying weapons include: 21 Bell D type.

These helicopters are still OK to deal with rebels and guerrillas, but they cannot pose any threat to the navy and army with basic air defense capabilities that carry out preemptive strikes. In addition, the Philippine Air Force also has transport helicopters: 55 Bell 2O5 type, 16 UH1H type, 2 s7OA type "Black Hawk" helicopters, 2 sa33o type helicopters. Maritime reconnaissance aircraft: 2 F27m type, and 6 reconnaissance aircraft: 6 rt33a type.

There are also trainers: 6 T33a models, 15 T41d models, 15 SF26OTP models, 12 S211 models. The appearance and usage methods of the s211 models produced in Italy are similar to that of Huaxia’s K8. The aircraft has combat capabilities, but the maximum plug-in is only 66o kilograms, and its combat effectiveness can be imagined.

Both the President of the Philippines and the Chief of General Staff of the Air Force admitted that the existing equipment of the Air Force is not only insufficient to defend airspace and territorial waters, but even not enough to deal with bandits like Absayev's armed forces. However, in order to encircle China, the United States and Taiwan are preparing to provide Philippine various air force weapons free of charge. The air force may be strengthened in the future, but now it is too late.

The Huajiang aircraft carrier has four sets of electromagnetic catapult equipment, which can take off four J-18 fighters at the same time in a very short time. Electromagnetic catapult uses electromagnetic energy to drive the object to be ejected outward and can work continuously. The catapult weight can be adjusted at will within 2 minutes between two firing intervals. It can not only eject early warning aircraft with a large tonnage, but also reduce the electromagnetic force to eject the drone.

After using electromagnetic radiation, the original two catapults on the aircraft carrier can be upgraded to 4. On aircraft carriers with limited aircraft carriers, the aircraft attendance rate can be increased, and the electromagnetic catapult takes up space. It can be equipped on light aircraft carriers, and even on amphibious assault ships can be equipped to shoot unmanned fighters.

The successful development of this type of equipment is mainly due to the Liaodong Shipbuilding Institute. In order to develop electromagnetic catapult technology, Shuanglong Group invested a lot of money and took five years to successfully develop it. The United States is still in the experimental stage until now, which means that China is far ahead of the United States in aircraft carrier catapult technology.

Of course, this set of technology is extremely confidential. The two aircraft carriers that have just been launched in China and the modernly modified Huajiang aircraft carrier still retain the appearance of steam catapults. Not many of these steam catapult equipment are just the ears of deaf people, in order to confuse the enemy.

After the combat order was issued, the electromagnetic catapult equipment on the Huajiang aircraft carrier exerted great power. A 22o early warning aircraft and sixteen J-18 fighter jets were all ejected in less than fifteen minutes. The J-18 formed three formations in the air, four used to destroy the Philippine Air Force, four used to attack the Philippine Navy's navy to go to sea, and the other eight were responsible for the alert task of the Singapore Changi military base.

At the same time, the airports and naval ports of Philippine countries were also busy. Due to the serious corruption of the Philippine team, and the Philippines held the protection of the United States, they believed that no one dared to touch them, and all the planes lacked due maintenance. Not to mention those pilots, there were only a few hundred training hours in a year, and even the fraction of the Chinese Air Force could not reach. If an army like this was to take it out for war, it would be purely to be cannon fodder.

But now they don’t want to go to war, and Congress announced that they would defend their territory with their blood and life. President Abuliang ordered all fighter planes to take off and all ships to sea to block the mixed naval formations of China. After a terrible preparation, the Philippine Air Force made great efforts to take off the first eight F5A freedom fighter fighters. After some tossing, the eight planes barely formed a formation in the air and flew towards the mixed naval formations of China.

Modern warfare is technology. As soon as the Philippine Air Force took off, it was discovered by China's early warning aircraft and ordered four J-18s to meet. To be honest, the pilots of the J-18 always felt that they had used a terrible knife to deal with the master-style fighter jets like Philippine. The captain, Major Guo Baolu, received the combat command from the early warning aircraft and immediately issued a combat order to other pilots: "Wajiang Team 2, please note that I am O1, and each aircraft turn on the active radar to search. O2 will follow me to deal with the eight f5a, o3, and o4 in front of me. I don't need to fire missiles to deal with this master aircraft. Let them taste the power of our air cannons."

According to regulations, fighter jets must perform radio silence before air combat, and will not turn on the active radar in advance. The purpose is to prevent the target from being exposed, so that the other party is ready in advance, and cause their own passiveness. However, there are not so many taboos about the master fighter jets like Philippine. First, there is no radar on the F-5a, and the electronic communication equipment is extremely backward. Secondly, there is no missile on the F5a. Let this aircraft engage in air combat with the J-18, just like letting a duck fight an eagle, and the outcome is not to mention.
