(SF novel) East of Nakba (47)

(Japanese Version)


Part I. Israel bombs a nuclear plant in Iran (44)


Chapter 17 A tanker shot down (1) Formation of planes torn apart (2/3)

 

When two convoys missed each other, Saudi nine jets turned around and soared. As soon as they reached the same altitude as the Israeli aircrafts, they began to chase them. At the top speed, the nine aircrafts quickly caught up with Israeli convoy. Both the Israeli and Saudi Arabian jet fighters were exactly the same F16s. Saudi jets, however, easily seized the enemy because Israeli refueling aircraft had to fly slower than F16s. 


Israeli radar showed that nine jets were approaching minute by minute. The Israel convoy had nothing to be done. It was difficult to check enemy’s play behind them. The visibility of pilot was very much limited in back view though they could enjoy wide front and side view. Moreover, the pilot could hardly shake the head due to his helmet and oxygen mask were fixed to his head tightly. The Israeli pilots had no choice but to wait how enemy attacked them.
