"Calm down, be calm, be calm, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Captain Kane was constantly admonishing himself. He had reviewed the records of past maritime confrontation drills with the Red Army, and found that his side had almost no victories. Although there was an inherent disadvantage in simulating the Blue Army, the commander's panic
Confusion and indecision are not one of the reasons for failure.
Judging from the battlefield situation, the red side's No. 037 J-7EGGHS has no chance of winning. As long as the two Burke-class aircraft enter the air defense combat state, they will almost certainly be able to shoot down the aircraft within ten seconds, and the aircraft obviously does not carry any
arms.
Unfortunately, this is just a confrontation drill, and no one can actually take action.
So the dominant side in the battlefield situation becomes No. 037 J-7EGGHS - your ship has no way to put pressure on other fighters through non-contact actions!
But the aircraft can exhaust all non-contact warning and warning actions for you.
For example, what Lehi is going to do now.
With the help of the back speed brake, Li Hai controlled the airspeed at 190 kilometers per hour. This is an extremely dangerous airspeed! If it were an ordinary J-7, it would have stalled and crashed long ago.
But this is the No. 037 J-7EGGHS - when the ship was being improved, the wing area was increased. The most obvious change was the addition of side strips and a conformal fuel tank.
It is difficult to go as slowly as possible while maintaining the engine power at a high level. If the engine power is low, once a stall sign occurs, no matter how skilled the pilot is, there will be no way to turn the situation around.
The current state of No. 037 J-7EGGHS is probably like a car with an engine speed of 7,000 rpm and driving in a low gear - it only needs to quickly upshift to jump forward!
In fact, this was also the first time Li Hai challenged the low-speed limit of the No. 037 J-7EGGGHS. When he flew the No. 037 J-7EGGGHS for the first time at Feisha Base, he felt very bad and was not able to control the aircraft. Since his superiors
After deciding to send the No. 037 J-7EGGHS to the Forgotten Reef, he scrutinized the aircraft's past and present life, devouring all the data on the aircraft's previous improvements and detailed battle reports of previous battles.
Theoretically, the foundation is laid, and after training, there is an opportunity to transform the theory into a large number of practical flight hours.
Li Hai did not dare to take it lightly. After all, it was his first time. He approached slowly and cautiously entered from the butt direction of the destroyer "McCampbell". He followed the same course but maintained a lateral distance of 50 meters. This was done to avoid the ship.
Turbulence at the rear.
When the longitudinal distance was 1,000 meters, Li Hai gently turned his wing to the left, reducing the lateral distance from the "McCampbell" until he was only ten meters away from the ship's ship building!
“Get ready for photos!”
Li Hai yelled, and raised the camera in his right hand to point it at the ship building of the "McCampbell", focusing on the bridge command center!
Zhan Yuntian quickly raised his camera and took a shot. The details of the weapons, communications, control and other equipment on the ship were all shown in close-up!
When resuming level flight, Li Hai suddenly pulled the lever, raised the nose of the aircraft, and at the same time turned left to cut into the path of the "McCampbell". The airspeed dropped to 160 kilometers per hour in an instant!
At this moment, No. 037 J-7EGGHS appeared directly in front of the bridge of the ship. The flying altitude was basically the same as the height of the bridge command center. The nose of the aircraft was slightly raised, like a reining in the cliff posture, and the left side of the fuselage was facing Kane.
The captain, less than twenty meters away, was right in front of him, and he was zooming in quickly - because the "McCampbell" itself had speed!
Captain Kane's heart suddenly surged into his throat, and he issued an instruction that he regretted: "Emergency turn!"
The instruction is correct. If there is no emergency steering, the "McCampbell" sailing at a speed of 18 knots per hour will hit the No. 037 J-7EGGHS in two seconds!
However, Captain Kane completely forgot that the "McCain" was encroaching on his left front and turning clockwise at high speed. If the "McCampbell" had made an emergency left turn, nothing would have happened.
Unfortunately, Captain Kane issued an "emergency turn" instead of an "emergency left turn". The more nervous helmsman was left-handed. After hearing the order, he subconsciously made an emergency turn to the right!
The two Burke-class routes will intersect in a very short period of time, and the captains of the two ships were frightened by the bold move of No. 037 J-7EGGHS, and all their attention was focused on the fuselage.
No imminent danger was detected…
Captain Kane clearly saw the two pilots in the cockpit of No. 037 J-7EGGHS holding up cameras to take pictures of him and his command center, close range and head-on!
The pilot in the back cabin actually had a free hand and shook it as if to say hello. The white and lightweight labor protection gloves were very eye-catching!
Could it be that the pilot in the front cockpit is controlling the fighter plane?
However, Captain Kane clearly saw that the pilot in the front cabin was holding a camera with both hands!
In this tense and dangerous moment, their hands actually took off the joystick!
The huge "McCampbell" began to turn sharply. At the same time, the No. 037 J-7EGGHS suddenly pressed down the nose of the aircraft, and a clearly visible tail flame was ejected from the engine nozzle, and it rushed out like a wild horse.
The speed instantly climbed dozens of knots, and at the same time, it turned right and climbed, with some visible airflow rolling up on the wings, which was extremely cool!
The whole process only lasted five seconds, but it became another unforgettable scene in the life of the "McCampbell".
Li Hai climbed up, turned right and started circling, handing over the control to Zhan Yuntian who was still in shock. Then he quickly replaced the camera with a wide-angle lens and got ready.
Zhan Yuntian didn't know what he was waiting for, and flew in a low-altitude circle according to Li Hai's request.
Captain Kane's heart slowly dropped, and now he realized that his back was covered in cold sweat. When he exhaled heavily, the navigator suddenly shouted as if his tail had been stepped on: "Slow down! Slow down!"
!Slow down! Damn it! Contact the McCain! Ask them to make an emergency left turn! Hurry!"
At this time, the two Burke-class navigators realized that a huge crisis was in front of them. The "McCampbell" rushed straight towards the starboard side of the "McCain". The distance between the two ships was already close.
Suddenly the danger was completely exposed.
What's even more terrible is that in order to reach the designated position as quickly as possible, the "McCain" made a maximum clockwise turn at full speed, reaching a speed of 30 knots!
The officers and soldiers in the bridge command centers of the two ships went completely crazy.
In panic, the left-handed helmsman of the "McCampbell" made another fatal mistake - he did not return to the straight steering surface, but continued to maintain a maximum angle of right turn.
If he corrects the steering wheel, and the "McCampbell", whose speed is only 18 knots, has decelerated urgently, and the "McCain" has also emergency left full rudder, even if the two ships collide, it probably won't be too serious.
, the collision between the bow and the stern will at least not cause irreparable damage.
Then, in such a short period of time, when Captain Kane realized the problem with the helmsman, it was too late!
