Chapter 865: Chapter 354: Aerial Clash_3 Chapter 865: Chapter 354: Aerial Clash_3 Moreover, the most crucial point was that Yan Fei had already completed all his tasks for this trip to the African continent. Although he wanted to vent his fury and eliminate the US forces' military presence in Africa entirely, he could withdraw at any time when he realized that victory was impossible, without the need to go all out against the US forces.

Therefore, for Yan Fei at that moment, he was already in an invincible position. The only reason he stayed behind to combat the US forces was because he was angered by being outmaneuvered by them, which had resulted in casualties among the Dream Island citizens, and he wanted to teach the US forces a lesson. At the same time, it was to earn more merit points, aiming for another upgrade of the Drone.

After the first wave of attacks had failed, the Drone was not discouraged but continued to fly, reaching a point 30 kilometers away from the US combat aircraft fleet and launched another salvo of 20 AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles at the US combat aircraft fleet below. However, once it was 30 kilometers away from the US combat aircraft fleet, the Drone was no longer absolutely safe, for the aircraft fleet below could now attack the Drone as well.

The ongoing volcanic eruption caused increasing amounts of volcanic ash in the air, so as the Drone flew, more volcanic ash adhered to the Drone Body, making the Drone's radar echo on the US early warning aircraft's radar grow larger. Once the target size reached a certain point, the US early warning aircraft finally managed to lock onto the Drone.

So, as the Drone launched another 20 AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles, it once again revealed its position. Coupled with the volcanic ash, the US early warning aircraft finally achieved a complete lock on the Drone. Following the early warning aircraft's command, the US combat aircraft fleet began launching their AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles.

Each F-15 Fighter launched two AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles, with a total of 44 missiles fired by the 22 US F-15 Fighters, all aimed at attacking the distant Drone.

This was the first time a Level 5 Stealth-capable Drone was completely locked onto by US radar and attacked with missiles. The Drone Quantum Radar immediately detected the danger and sent Yan Fei a warning. Yan Fei couldn't help but feel mixed emotions, amused at the unexpected role the volcanic ash in the sky played in revealing the Drone's whereabouts.

However, Yan Fei had no intention of letting the AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles come close and then shooting them down one by one with Cannon Rounds, as that could lead to various accidents and put the Drone in jeopardy. His response was very simple; to not let the missiles get near him at all. Thus, under Yan Fei's control, the Drone's Flight Speed bizarrely dropped to zero, and it hovered in place, then rapidly rotated in a clockwise direction on a horizontal axis.

As the Drone spun rapidly, like an electric fan, a strong centrifugal force was generated on the Drone Body, shaking off the loosely adhered volcanic ash. In just a few seconds, the Drone Body was devoid of any volcanic ash, regaining its Stealth status.

With the volcanic ash gone, the US early warning aircraft radar that had locked onto the Drone suddenly lost its trace, unable to continue guiding the already-launched AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles towards their target. Thus, the Flight Trajectories of those AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles, initially directed by the early warning aircraft, became somewhat erratic.

Left with no choice, the already launched missiles had to be switched to manual mode, with the pilots in the forefront trying to manually lock on with their vision. However, the dense volcanic ash in the sky, resembling a daunting black cloud, obstructed the Fighter Pilots' view, making it impossible for them to spot the Drone's exact location. As a last resort, the pilots could only control the AIM-120 Air-to-Air Missiles to fly erratically in the air, hoping to hit the Drone by sheer chance.

After shaking off the volcanic ash, the Drone immediately recovered its Stealth Ability. It made a wide turn, quickly moving away from its previous position. Thus, even if the US pilots controlled the missiles towards where the Drone used to be, they could not hit it.
