The F-16 fighter is a fighter with high agility, good maneuverability and comprehensive combat performance.
This is the personal opinion given by Li Hai.
Among the U.S. Air Force, the F-16 has the largest amount of equipment and undertakes the most and heaviest tasks. After the end of the Cold War, this fighter was used as a multi-purpose fighter. Continuous improvements have also made this fighter a third-generation fighter.
The one with the longest lifespan among fighter jets.
Li Hai said, "I personally think that the technical performance of the mid-to-late batches of F-16 is roughly equivalent to our J-10A model, but far inferior to the latest J-10C model."
Qin Ming asked, "Regardless of the combat skills of the pilots, what are the chances of the J-8F winning against the F-16?"
Other members of the investigation team pricked up their ears. Li Hai's opinion was important. After understanding Li Hai's situation in depth, everyone agreed that the new pilot's opinion had solid support.
While on the plane, Liu Chengjun and members of the investigation team discussed the odds of winning "J-8F vs. F-16". The F-16s equipped by the Thousand Islands Country were originally sold to Pakistan. Later, due to the deterioration of relations, the United States resold them to the Thousand Islands Country.
.The overall technical performance of that batch of F-16s is at an above-average level in the huge F-16 family.
Everyone is well aware of these situations.
Liu Chengjun has some hopes in his heart. The J-8F is a relatively new type of J-8 series fighter aircraft currently in service. It is the model with the greatest improvement compared to the basic model, and it is also the model with the largest inventory currently in service.
If the J-8F has a slight chance of winning when facing the F-16, this will be a great encouragement to the entire Haiba Division, and it will be a great benefit to the sea and air force teams equipped with a large number of J-8Fs.
information.
Even if the battle loss ratio reaches 5 to 1, it is still acceptable.
Li Hai clearly felt everyone's expectations, and he also understood where this inexplicable sense of expectation came from. We now have no shortage of advanced fighters, but it does not mean that we completely give up the use of old equipment. Being diligent and thrifty is a fine tradition of our army. In combat,
Being able to use a relatively weak force to contain the opponent's relatively strong force is obviously a good thing.
Not to mention the economic benefits.
Large-scale wars are about attrition and fighting for the war potential of both sides.
However, Lehi had to disappoint them because he could not lie.
"There is no chance of winning." Li Hai shook his head and said solemnly.
Everyone except Qin Ming was stunned.
Even if Li Hai said that the battle loss ratio was very high, it would be easier for people to accept than saying "no chance of winning".
"Xiao Li, what do you mean there is no chance of winning? You can't beat one on one?" Liu Chengjun still had the last glimmer of hope in his heart and looked at Li Hai expectantly.
Li Hai couldn't bear it, but had to tell the truth, "I can only say that in a one-on-one situation, I will be shot down before I see the F-16. The data is limited, and I cannot quantify the battle loss ratio, but I
My first feeling is that the J-8F will be overwhelmed and beaten by the F-16, and it can be said that it has no power to fight back."
The naval captain sitting next to Liu Chengjun frowned and said, "Young man, your judgment is a little too ambitious. After all, the J-8F is also a second and a half generation fighter, and its avionics system is relatively advanced.
It has the ability to launch medium and long-range Thunderbolt missiles.”
"But the performance of the airborne radar is too far behind." Li Hai shook his head slightly and said, "Chief, from a personal emotional point of view, I can't accept it either. After I came back, I have been analyzing the situation at that time. The two F aircraft in the Thousand Island Kingdom
-16 appeared from my search fan. My airborne radar was in search mode at the time, but I did not see them. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the air warning radar on Ike Island provided guidance, but as far as I know
, the performance of the radar station on Ike Island is very backward...
He paused and said, "There is no chance of winning in a battle outside the visual range, and there is no chance of winning in a battle close to the visual range. I was able to take my time under the attack of two F-16s, mainly because their pilots' professional quality was worrying, and there was no chance of winning.
It can fully bring out the advantages of the F-16."
The naval colonel stopped talking. He had no right to speak and no arguments to support his point of view.
The conference room fell into silence, and the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
It is obvious that all the J-8Fs deployed at the Forgotten Reef Airport are J-8Fs. According to Li Hai, if these J-8Fs cannot compete with the F-16s of the Thousand Islands Country, then the significance of the independent brigade will be at least halved.
Li Hai intended to ease the current solemn atmosphere and said with a smile, "However, the Dongsanguai can compete with the F-16 for several rounds. It is difficult to say who will win."
"Dongsanguai?" the navy captain asked doubtfully, "Is it the J-7E from the Air Force?"
"Yes, sir, this fighter plane is at the Forgotten Reef Airport. It has been converted into a two-seater and is currently responsible for leading new members of our independent brigade." Li Hai said.
Liu Chengjun asked, "Does Dong Sanguai have this strength?"
At this time, Qin Ming answered instead. He smiled and said, "Yes. The Dongsanguai J-7 is equipped with a large number of sensors and is equipped with a three-service tactical data link system. Whether it is a tactical unit in the system or an independent
In combat, its combat capabilities are very powerful."
"I have studied the airborne radar of Dongsanguaihao J-7, and most of its performance is superior to the AN/APG-66 radar used by F-16 fighter jets. One of the most outstanding performance is the fire control lock speed.
Very fast. Fire blank bullets at each other within visual range to see who gets the priority to lock on."
Li Hai took over the conversation with a smile.
Since No. 037 J-7EGGHS arrived at the Forgotten Reef Airport, he has spent a lot of time studying the performance of the aircraft. Many of the features are not reflected in the manual. He must drive the test himself. After all, it is a modified aircraft.
N times of weird fighter jets, scorpion shit - the only one.
The more he studied, the more alarmed he became, and then he suddenly discovered that except for the lack of appearance and stealth performance, the aircraft surpassed the pre-2010 batch of F-16 fighter jets in other aspects!
He finally understood the real reason why the No. 037 J-7EGGHS has not been retired. It is not only a new technology practical test aircraft, but also a fighter with powerful air combat capabilities!
Even, Li Hai vaguely felt that he had not fully tapped the combat capability potential of the No. 037 J-7EGGHS.
"Is that J-7 so powerful?" the navy captain was dubious.
Not only him, most people will not believe that the J-7 can outperform the F-16. You must know that even from an improvement point of view, the improvement potential of the J-8 series fighters is greater than that of the J-7 series.
However, the No. 037 J-7EGGHS is no longer a J-7 series fighter in the ordinary sense.
Qin Ming said, "Yes. When I visit it later, I will find out. The conformal fuel tank, the new high-thrust engine, the clamshell air inlet, and the optimized aerodynamic layout. This fighter aircraft is incredible."
Liu Chengjun waved his hand and said, "After all, the Dongsanguai No. is unique and cannot be copied. Let's get back to the topic and continue the discussion."
Li Hai shook his head slightly and said, "Chief of Staff, although my J-8F flight hours are not long, I have carried out high-risk and difficult flight missions in the past, so I have a relatively deep understanding of the aircraft."
"If I were asked to choose, I would rather encounter Su Liangqi and Su Sanlian than F-16."
