"Have you ever played Plants vs. Zombies? The target is like a grave. Zombies will keep popping up. Just beating zombies cannot cure the root cause, so we have to dig up the grave."
"Therefore, we have to use ammunition that has the function of penetrating the ground."
Lehi said this.
When it comes to actual attacks, Wei Lan also has to sit down and listen to his arrangements.
This is the combat conference room of the Danfeng base. Participating in this combat conference are Wu Guangwei, the deputy chief of staff of the base, Lin Xiaotong, the commander of the training unit, Wei Lan, the deputy commander of the training unit, the rear cabin pilots Chengtian, Li Hai and the party for the people.
At this time, the party for the people knew why Li Hai didn't tell him last night. It was because Li Hai could not reveal any of the contents to anyone without approval before the war meeting was held.
Wu Guangwei said, "The relevant ammunition has been prepared, and the aircraft maintenance is in the process of adding additional equipment."
Li Hai pointed to the combat map and continued, "I am responsible for the ground attack, and the Azure crew is responsible for the air cover. Everyone, pay attention to the terrain here. From here in the Snow Valley, after entering the ultra-low-altitude defense along the mountains to the northeast, the
It is Qiduan Mountain. This mountain is very special. Its southwest side is almost vertical, while its northeast side is relatively gentle, which is an inverse slope. At the foot of the mountain, there is a depression about 500 meters wide and about two kilometers long.
"
"This place is where the target is. At present, we do not have the specific location of the target and need to wait for further information."
Li Hai then introduced the combat plan for dual-aircraft cooperation and then returned to his seat.
Lin Xiaotong said, "Weilan, your task is to cover Li Hai and ensure that his attack goes smoothly. Under any circumstances, you must first ensure that Li Hai completes his attack mission."
Wei Lan nodded slowly, "Understood, make sure the strike team successfully completes the attack mission."
"Next, let's wait for the ground reconnaissance team to determine the target location, and each crew will go to the flight briefing room to prepare." Lin Xiaotong ended the meeting.
After entering the flight briefing room, Li Hai walked to Wei Lan and whispered, "Qiduan Mountain is close to the border. You are flying at medium and high altitudes. You must pay attention to the movement of the 360 heading. According to the requirements of your superiors, if there is an air condition
, you can’t fight them, you should retreat to the east to attract the opponent’s attention and buy me a minute and a half for my attack.”
Weilan frowned and looked at Li Hai with a serious tone. Weilan said, "Don't worry, I will ensure that your attack is successfully completed at all costs."
Li Hai said, "Vice Wei, you have misunderstood me."
"There is no misunderstanding. You can attack without worry and I will protect you." Wei Lan shook her head and said.
Li Hai opened his mouth, and finally said what was in his heart honestly, "What I mean is, when encountering an empty situation, you quickly retreat and watch my flanks, so that I can let go of my hands and feet to follow them."
Done."
Wei Lan looked at Li Hai in shock and said in disbelief, "Are you afraid that I will hold you back?"
Li Hai smiled shyly.
Wei Lan looked at Li Hai in shock, dumbfounded.
I "fake" am also a key junior cadre in Haisi's training, an outstanding backbone pilot, and the group-level pilot with the highest comprehensive evaluation in Haiba Division. In your eyes, am I only worthy of holding you back?
Who gave you the courage to look down on me?
Li Hai knew that it was hurtful to say this, but he had to be realistic in his behavior. He explained, "Vice Wei, you have never fought in a war. You don't know what it will be like in a fight. You must be especially cautious when there is only one chance to attack."
of."
"I'm not targeting anyone, but so far, except for me, none of you have relevant experience. If you retreat to cover my flanks, firstly, I can rest assured on the flanks, and secondly, I can concentrate on dealing with the enemy. If you want to tangle with the enemy
, then it will be difficult for me to let go.”
"And this is not a real war. There are many things in it that need to be accurately grasped. I know that learning war during war is a fine tradition of our army, but this mission does not meet the conditions for learning, so you can only temporarily raid the formation.
, leave the rest to me."
I thought that after explaining it, Wei Lan would understand. Li Hai didn't mean to belittle Wei Lan. He had never thought of it that way.
In the previous few months at the Musa Naval Training Station, Li Hai had carried out too many sudden armed confrontation missions, and he was well aware of the dangers involved. When putting new recruits into the battlefield, attention should be paid to the step-by-step approach.
Instead of throwing yourself into a completely unfamiliar environment to learn.
Undoubtedly, in Li Hai's eyes, Wei Lan and others were new recruits in the face of the war, even though he was the new recruit.
Wei Lan felt the anger starting to burn in the soles of his feet, burning up along the nerves, until it burned to the center of his brain, making him tremble with anger!
"Mr. Wei, I really have no other intentions." Li Hai sighed lightly and said.
To Wei Lan, this look suggests that he hates iron and cannot become steel.
After a while, Wei Lan angrily smiled and said, "Okay, very good, Li Hai, you are very good, very good, good, good, you are the captain, I will do whatever you say, I won't hold you back."
."
Li Hai was delighted and held Wei Lan's hand excitedly, "Deputy Wei, thank you! Thank you very much for your understanding and support!"
Wei Lan smiled twitchingly, broke away from Li Hai's hand in disgust, and walked away with the flight helmet.
Dang Weimin came over, blinked at Li Hai, and gave a thumbs up, "Old Li, I didn't expect that your soft knife can be so powerful. It makes him feel more uncomfortable than scolding him."
"What do you mean?" Li Hai frowned and said, "I am telling the truth. You are also a veteran. Don't you think my concerns are reasonable?"
Dang Weimin said, "It makes sense. Weilan is good and has good qualities in all aspects, but his actual combat experience is blank. If we get entangled with the enemy while covering, we will not only perform the attack mission, but also rescue him."
He, this must be causing trouble!"
Obviously, Li Hai does not have the same worries.
The enemy rushes over and wants to fight you. People who have never been on the battlefield usually have two reactions. One is to rush forward and fight the enemy head on, and the other is to turn around and run away in fear. Chinese soldiers will only have the first reaction.
Courage is commendable, but it is easy to fall into a trap - what if the other party has an ambush?
Li Hai was afraid that Wei Lan couldn't control his head and rushed forward. If it were Lin Xiaotong, Li Hai would never say these words, because Lin Xiaotong is measured. Wei Lan is young and energetic and very confident.
, is also quite impulsive in character, and easily falls into other people's tricks to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
If he is led away by the nose, Li Hai will be in danger. Let alone rescuing him, whether he can successfully complete the attack mission is still one thing.
The problem is that the combat plan clearly states that the wingman's task is to cover the lead aircraft. If Wei Lan is mobilized by an enemy aircraft, wouldn't he be disobeying the order? In fact, the combat plan does not and cannot strictly restrict the actions of the combat unit.
When we fight, anything can happen.
Being transferred out of the trap only shows that your tactical acumen is not as good as others.
Li Hai's words are correct, but his way of expression is too direct. Those words and pointing at the azure nose and saying, "You kid, be careful not to fly around and drag me back. Yes, I said it, you"
The actual combat level is unqualified...
To the extremely high-spirited Wei Lan, this is simply a personal attack!
If the next task hadn't been very important, Wei Lan would have gotten angry on the spot.
After the two crews boarded the plane, they taxied to the take-off position and waited for the take-off order. The tower had to receive news from the ground guidance team before it could issue the take-off order.
For the ground guidance team to determine the location of the "Gopher", this process may only take an hour, it may take two hours, or three hours.
Of course, the ground guidance team has already arrived at the mission area, and they are reconnaissance for the target. Due to some factors, the ground guidance team cannot enter the mission area for the second time. In other words, if the target cannot be found this time, then the air strike team will
There is no way to talk about the tasks here.
Therefore, this attack mission is special.
Li Hai used the knee board to check the aeronautical charts and satellite cloud images. The knee board was tied to his left thigh. You can see it when you lower your head and it is very convenient to operate. But this thing is actually a tablet and can only be used as a viewing tool when it is off the ground.
use.
On the right leg is the Beidou system terminal, which is much thicker than a tablet and about the same size. However, this thing has a network and can continuously receive information transmitted from the Beidou satellite system, and can communicate with voice and text.
This is the Beidou system terminal used by Li Hai to assist Lieutenant Colonel Xie and others in performing their missions.
The fire control system of the Su-30MK2 has been cracked by our military personnel in the early years, and domestic ammunition can be used. However, the communication system still cannot access new data networks, such as the Beidou system.
Not only the Su-30MK2, but also many domestically produced fighters produced in earlier periods cannot access the Beidou system network.
Li Hai needs to exchange information with the ground guidance team through the Beidou system, mainly to receive target information from the ground guidance team. In order not to expose the whereabouts of the ground guidance team, the Beidou system should be used as much as possible for communication throughout the process.
"Those of you who are in the sky will come back as soon as you step on the accelerator. It is very difficult for those of you on the ground to climb mountains and wade through rivers, so you should pay more attention to the situation of the ground guidance team. They are performing a target guidance mission, not a suicide mission."
Wu Guangwei's original words were as follows, reminding the air strike team to try their best to take care of the situation of the ground guidance team.
Li Hai and Lieutenant Colonel Xie had carried out missions and knew the hardships of the ground combat team, so they believed Wu Guangwei's words.
In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Li Hai has not established contact with the ground guidance team at this time, and his Beidou system terminal is in an idle state.
The party in the back cabin was repeatedly checking the status of the ammunition it carried.
Four LS-6 precision attack munitions carrying ground-penetrating warheads, two KD-83 air-to-surface missiles, four PL-12 medium-range air-to-air missiles, plus a full warehouse of 30 mm aircraft cannon shells, and 6 tons of fuel.
This is the total load of Su-30MK2 No. 17 for this flight.
Failures in the weapon control system circuitry and pylons caused the No. 17 Su-30MK2 to be in danger of being unable to detach from the pylons when the activated ammunition was powered on during the last major exercise. Li Hai finally made an emergency landing, and the aircraft was later sent to Shen Hoy.
Make repairs.
During this training, everyone else had transferred from Forgetting Reef. Only Li Hai and Dang Weimin used civil aviation transportation channels to go to Shenhuoyi to pick up Su-30MK2 No. 17, and took off directly from the airport in Shenhuoyi. Danfeng base.
The cause of the failure is caused by the aging of the wiring, which is a common problem of old aircraft. Many aircraft appear to be in good condition on the surface, but after long-term use, the fine wiring inside has exceeded the design life. To continue normal use, it is necessary to Invest a lot of maintenance costs.
The U.S. Navy reached its peak during the Reagan era. Whether it was the number of ships or the combat effectiveness of its troops, it had been fighting vicious wars and had such a powerful opponent as the Soviet Red Navy. The U.S. Navy had the strongest combat capabilities in this era.
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the United States made major strategic adjustments. The changes in the military were very obvious. After losing its strongest opponent, the U.S. Navy drew its sword and looked around but could not see its opponent. The weapons and equipment built for fighting big wars were suddenly lost. gained meaning.
They decisively retired them early, sold them, or refurbished them. They were not willing to let these excess weapons and equipment stay in active service for one more day.
The fundamental reason is that maintaining these weapons and equipment requires a large amount of military expenditures, and decommissioning them in advance can not only save military expenditures, but also line the pockets of relevant interests...
The maintenance of normal weapons and equipment is so huge, let alone a fighter jet that has exceeded its service life.
This batch of Su-30MK2 from Hainan Airlines is the same as the imported Su-27SK equipped by the Air Force. They are all fighter jets that are used intensively. There was no way around the situation at that time. Looking at it, there were only so many third-generation aircraft. It would not be enough if they were not used to death. .
The Su-27SK of the Second Air Division actually had its engines replaced six times!
This means that many systems in the body have been overhauled and replaced many times, and the only thing that has not changed is the body.
Later, after the 2nd Air Force Division was replaced with J-10s and J-11s, those Su-27SKs were actually handed over to brother units for continued use...
This batch of Su-30MK2 from Hainan Airlines is not much better. The Bald Eagle Regiment itself has been tossing these fighters to death. After being transferred to the 167th Independent Flying Group, they not only have to withstand the harsher island climate, but also have to perform More heavy security patrol tasks.
It is normal if something goes wrong, but it is abnormal if there is no malfunction.
Because of the lessons learned from the past, the party paid special attention to weapons and ammunition. Before boarding the plane, he repeatedly checked the status of each pylon and each piece of ammunition to ensure that it was absolutely foolproof, and then repeatedly checked the weapons and ammunition control system of the fighter plane. Operation status.
After confirming that there was no problem, he felt relieved.
He is a weapons operator, and it is his responsibility to have problems with weapons and ammunition, but Li Hai took the responsibility for him last time.
Although he usually looks careless, it doesn't mean that he doesn't remember things in his heart. He knows very well who treats him well and what the real situation is. He has a clear mind. As a weapons operator, Li Hai is not only responsible for shooting. Li Hai even came up with a solution to problems with weapons and ammunition.
He kept in mind that he must show his own level this time. He must not be a rear cockpit pilot and share part of the work for Li Hai. This is what a rear cockpit pilot must do.
At this time, the tower spoke.
"Attention, Yaoguai detachment, the situation has changed. You must leave the runway and return to the apron in order. Over."
