The task member was changed from Wenxuan to Luo Yu, which did not have much impact.
Anyway, the base only said that two fighters would be required to carry out the mission. Wang Yu would allocate the quotas for these two fighters within the team, so whether it was Wenxuan or Luo Yu who went on the mission with him, it would make no difference to his superiors. Therefore, when Wang Yu reported to his superiors that Wenxuan was unable to participate in the mission due to special circumstances, and applied to temporarily change the team member performing the mission to Luo Yu, his superiors immediately approved and approved Wang Yu's application.
So Wenxuan's fighter plane was sent back to the hangar, while Luo Yu's fighter plane was equipped with the basic armament required for the mission.

Luo Yu quickly changed into his flight suit, put on his equipment, and sat on his fighter plane to start the engine.
Because of the temporary nature, her movements were slightly later than Wang Yu's, but Luo Yu did not waste time. She and Wang Yu quickly slid out of the apron and entered the runway one after another according to the prescribed route.
The last two fighters took off successfully from the base at the time required by the mission.
"Yin Lis, rise to 500 meters, turn south and leave."
The two fighter jets took off one after the other. Wang Yu took off first and informed Luo Yu of the departure procedures via radio.
"Copy that, regroup at an altitude of 6,000 meters?"
"That's it, six thousand meters, three hundred and fifty knots airspeed."
Wang Yu explained the formation status to Luo Yu to reduce the difficulty of the formation.
The two fighter planes flew over the sparse clouds one after another. At an altitude of six thousand meters, Wang Yu kept flying horizontally and then adjusted his speed. Soon, Luo Yu's fighter plane caught up from behind, and she steadily
Controlling the approach rate of both sides, they finally successfully entered the formation and flew with Wang Yu on the right side about three-quarters of a mile away.
Wang Yu saw her waving to him across the cockpit.
He simply waved his hand in return.
He then communicated with Luo Yu, and the two fighter planes continued to climb in formation. Ascending to a high altitude could save some fuel - the subsequent sea search would require a lower altitude and longer flight, which required a large amount of fuel support.
Therefore, it is a basic principle not to waste fuel during the rush stage.
The speed of the fighter planes was very fast. After climbing to the cruising altitude, the coastline of the southern part of the mainland was already under them.
"Set up our ground search radar." Wang Yu said to Liu Lingxin, "Remember to switch to sea mode."
The F-15e is a specialized ground-attack fighter. Its radar takes into account both air-to-air and ground-to-ground functions. What is very interesting is that due to the special design, when the rear seat controls the ground radar, it carefully observes the ground echo.
At the same time, the pilot can also turn on the air radar and adjust the antenna pitch to search for possible air threats.
Of course, two people are not needed. At this time, two of the four screens in front of Liu Lingxin show the radar situation - the screen on the left shows the ground radar, and the screen on the right shows the air radar. However, due to the current
Luo Yu is responsible for the air search task, so the air radar is in a dormant state, and the fighter's radar system is concentrating on ground search.
Liu Lingxin quickly set up the radar. As soon as she entered the search area, she could immediately start searching the sea to check for suspicious targets on the sea.
"We still have to fly more than a hundred kilometers toward the sea." Wang Yu said as he tilted the fuselage slightly and looked at the environment below.
At this time, fighter planes were flying over a small seaside village. This small village was originally an ordinary fishing village. Like the Wuling people, fishing was the industry. However, in recent times, some imperial geologists responsible for exploring seabed oil fields have
They began to move into the village with various instruments and equipment, seemingly planning to build a vanguard base nearby.
Detect first, then develop, the general process is the same.
"It seems to have reached a certain scale." Wang Yu, who was watching all this from high in the air, nodded, "I believe that after these people's instruments are shipped over, we will be able to see the empire's construction ships building platforms on the sea.
."
Liu Lingxin used the pod to output the view below - the pod could clearly see the crowds of people moving around the seaside village and the newly built scientist camp nearby.
This village is full of life and vitality, and the original fishermen and the scientists from the empire seem to get along very well.
I heard that from time to time, these fishermen would give a small part of their catch to the scientists' camp, and the scientists would also welcome ordinary people from the village to eat together in their camp for free - as if they were enjoying themselves. p>
The arrival of the empire has brought changes to this village. At least many children who were originally born in the village have stayed in the empire's scientist camp for a long time, and their knowledge has also increased a lot.
But soon, the fighter planes left this small seaside village.
…………
The roar of the two fighter planes flying at high altitudes was already an insignificant sound on the ground.
The people in the village seemed to hear a faint roar that could not be heard clearly unless they listened carefully. When they looked up, they could only see two white trail clouds extending towards the sea.
"It's our plane." One of the geologists looked up and squinted and saw the small black dot at the front of the "white line." "The imperial army is stationed north of us. I hope that with them, those restless
Guys, you can calm down."
"Indeed, ours is a great geological discovery that can be recorded in history." Another geologist said excitedly, "Such a huge oil and gas resource has never been discovered in the world before. We need to explore the scope of this oil field clearly.
If we do, then the whole country - no, the whole world will know about our contribution."
Two middle-aged scientists came to the newly established laboratory excitedly. Today they were waiting to study a sample excavated from the seabed by a scientific research submarine.
But they seemed to have arrived a little too early.
"The research ship hasn't come back yet." A staff member said to them, "You came too early."
"What do you mean?" The geologist was slightly surprised. "Isn't that scientific research ship supposed to come back in the middle of the night? We have been waiting for the samples for a long time."
"Who knows, it may be delayed by bad weather at sea." The staff shrugged, "But they must be on their way back to Hong Kong already. You should find something else to do first."
The geologist subconsciously asked: "Have you contacted the research ship?"
"Contact? No." The staff member shook his head, "The people on the boat are not children. They are running around on the sea. There is no need to contact them all the time. The last contact was last night. They said they were on their way back.
”
"Oh...that's right." The geologist nodded.
He set his sights on the sea, hoping that the scientific research ship would come back soon, and the research could not stop.
