Product Description
?Heads up, Alpha Lead! One of these bandits just fired a heat-seeker!? Gus rolled, corkscrewing into a 30-degree dive, plugged in the afterburners. ?Stay clear, Alpha Two.? Michelle was aboard that Antonov, and the missile?s infra-red sensor was homing on one of its three operating turbo-props. He had to decoy that missile with something even hotter?the F-24's afterburners. He dipped in behind the Antonov, then pulled up to the left. ?Alpha Lead, that heater?s chasing you now!? Gus was too busy to reply. He killed both burners, pulled the throttles back to idle, and toggled a thermite flare. It was an infra-red source a heat-seeking missile couldn?t ignore. Twisting his neck, he looked back, saw the smoke trail of the missile diverging where the Scimitar had tuned. It had taken the bait and was chasing the flare. An instant?s brilliant flash enveloped him. He felt a jolt. The heater had sensed a miss and self-detonated. His first clue that something was wrong was smoke in the cockpit. Then red lights on the panel and a warning screech in his earphones. Looking back, he saw a smoke trail. He was hit.
