Controlling the fighter plane to follow behind the tanker, Wang Yu stared at a light bar under the huge fuselage of the tanker.
Unlike hose refueling, where the amplitude and position are all determined by the pilot, when refueling with a hard hose, the pilot will see a reference object on the belly of the tanker, which is a light bar that changes color according to the angle.
, the pilot only needs to ensure that the color of the light bar is correct, and he will know that the relative position of his fighter plane and the tanker is correct.
The left hand continuously adjusts the throttle back and forth in small increments to control the relative speed of the fighter plane and the tanker, slowly approaching the position where the docking can be almost completed, and then controls the operating stick with the right hand to ensure that the fighter plane flies smoothly.
At this time, above the fighter cockpit is the tail of the tanker.
A black straight tube stretched and slowly approached the belly of the fighter plane - where the fuel port was located.
Along with a slight mechanical friction sound, Wang Yu noticed that the moving fuel rod stopped.
At the same time, he also heard the tanker operator's report: "The docking has been completed and aerial refueling is in progress."
On the hard-tube tanker, the tail is operated by the crew. They can fine-tune the position of the hard tube to aim at the fighter. Moreover, the hard tube also has freedom of movement and the ability to extend, so the fighter can swing slightly without breaking away.
, as long as the color band on the telescopic part of the fuel rod is not red, which represents the limit.
Wang Yu looked at the fuel gauge of the fighter jet. The remaining fuel gauge, which had already dropped to the dangerous line, began to increase continuously. The digital counter kept beating, proving that ton after ton of aviation fuel was being continuously added to the fighter jet.
in the fuel tank.
He looked sideways and saw that the two refueling pipes extending from the left and right wings were supplying fuel to Luo Yu and Murong Lan's two fighters at the same time. Their operations were very skillful. Luo Yu even had time to attack Wang.
Yu waved his hand.
Thanks to this being a composite heavy-duty tanker, it can simultaneously provide supplies to fighters in both aerial refueling modes.
And in this airspace, there is not only Polaris Squadron.
About two nautical miles to the side of this tanker, there are two tankers providing aerial refueling services for two squadrons of eight fighters; and about five or six nautical miles farther away, there are the remaining tankers.
fighter jets and tanker aircraft.
This is the Gensokyo brigade performing this mission. They have already met at the assembly point, and then carried out the aerial refueling mission in order - it must be said that nearly twenty fighters surrounded the four tankers for replenishment, and the entire flight
It is a very spectacular thing for the formation to cruise steadily at high altitude and leave a long trail in the dark blue sky that has begun to light up.
Someone in the channel sighed: "This is what a flying brigade should look like."
Are the requirements of your flying group a little strict?
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the supply and logistics can keep up, this brigade can completely accomplish the task of "wiping out all the air power of an ordinary country with one brigade." Back then, only one squadron of Polaris was able to take Austrian troops with it.
A northern war zone in Asia that was attacked by Rylians was frightened by the news, and several squadrons at the same level as Polaris cooperated...
So it can be said that Gensokyo is a country-destroying brigade.
Soon, they completed the aerial refueling operation.
After the refueling pipe was disconnected, Wang Yu controlled the fighter plane away from the tanker, and joined Luo Yu and Murong Lan on the flank of the tanker to reorganize the formation and wait for other friendly forces that might not have finished aerial refueling.
However, the friendly forces did not keep them waiting too long.
Soon, the aerial refueling of all fighter planes was successfully completed.
Since the pilots were very skilled and the allocation was reasonable, the refueling time did not exceed the expected limit.
All fighters of the Gensokyo brigade broke away from the flight path of the tanker aircraft, adjusted their formation, and prepared to depart for the mission airspace.
The tankers turned away. They also consumed a lot of fuel by flying here. At this time, they had to return. A new tanker would take off from the nearest aircraft carrier to take over the task.
According to the arrangements of their superiors, the empire's aircraft carrier battle group has been moving at high speed throughout the night to a position about 150 nautical miles northwest of Crown Bay. This is the minimum range that cannot be effectively attacked by Asia anti-ship missiles.
This early warning opportunity on the aircraft carrier provides guidance for airpower executing the mission.
Electronic warfare units will also launch from aircraft carriers.
At the same time, the existence of these aircraft carriers also has a more important role, which is to provide emergency return points for frontline fighters.
Since the objectives of this mission are heavy, and even if the stealth bombers carry out a large-scale bombing of the air defense positions in Crown Bay, there is no guarantee that the enemy will not make any response. This is fighting at the enemy's doorstep, facing the Aisians.
With anti-aircraft weapons and air superiority aircraft, even experienced aces may be injured.
Therefore, in order to prevent the pilots from having nowhere to retreat after the fighter planes were damaged, the empire specially lowered the aircraft carrier and set it as an emergency return point.
During the entire duration of the Crown Bay raid mission, once the fighter aircraft is damaged by enemy attacks, they can actively withdraw from the combat airspace in the specified direction, and then they can land on the aircraft carrier under the guidance of the early warning aircraft and the aircraft carrier.
In fact, it was the last time Wang Yu drove an F-15 down an aircraft carrier that inspired his superiors. Although generally land-based fighters cannot take off and land on aircraft carriers, if the pilot's skills are excellent, even land-based combat aircraft can be launched on the aircraft carrier.
Landed smoothly.
For the people in Gensokyo, landing an aircraft carrier is not a difficult task.
Anyway, this return point is only used in an emergency. It is so urgent. It is better to make an emergency landing on the aircraft carrier deck than to fall into Crown Bay and be captured by the Aisians.
After the Gensokyo Squadron completed its assembly, the early warning aircraft and electronic warfare aircraft sent by the Empire were also in place.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The early warning aircraft has connected each aircraft to the data link, and for the sake of safety, the electronic warfare aircraft needs to wait until the Crown Bay raid begins before it can approach from high altitudes - before, Fantasy
All members of the township team must fly close to the sea to avoid detection.
After confirming that everything was ready, the early warning aircraft issued the command to start the mission.
"Okay, everyone, pay attention. We will continue to fly for thirty nautical miles along the current route, and then enter low altitude." Captain Zhang gave an order to everyone in the team channel: "After entering low altitude, move close to the sea and keep the altitude at 100
Below meters."
The squadron leaders in the brigade expressed receipt.
The flight formation began to move towards Crown Bay, and the situation map showed the possible search range of the enemy's radar positions. According to the mission arrangement, the entire group's aircraft needed to fly at low altitude before coming into contact with the enemy's radar detection range.
.
Thirty nautical miles is not a long distance for fighter planes, and soon the large formation reached the "descent point".
This point is marked on the map as the starting point for the attack.
"All units, start descending. We need to descend seven thousand meters in a short horizontal distance, so this will be a thrilling dive. Don't forget to slow down and pull up in the final stage. I don't want to see anyone diving headfirst."
Into the sea.”
Captain Zhang shouted slogans on the channel: "We will burn the Queen's Bay of the Asian people to ashes today!"
Subsequently, the squadron he led took the lead in diving.
"What kind of slogans are you shouting when you demolish someone else's house?" Wang Yu subconsciously complained: "Shouldn't the occasion when shouting slogans be 'Today we will take back Gracemeria' or something like that?"
As he spoke, he led Polaris to follow the dive of Captain Zhang's squadron.
At the same time, several surrounding squadrons quickly followed up. In just two seconds, all the fighter planes pointed their flight vector symbols towards the sea and entered a high-intensity dive. The pilots on the fighter planes suddenly fell into a weightless "
"floating" state.
The highest roller coaster in the world only has a dive distance of about 100 meters, but now, all pilots are faced with a dive distance of seven kilometers, and the speed is not comparable to that of roller coasters.
Liu Lingxin tilted her head, and the tablet in her hand came out, floating in the air and spinning freely.
Without commenting on her behavior of looking for opportunities for entertainment, Wang Yu must stay focused at this time. He needs to keep an eye on the speedometer and altimeter, so as not to go too fast and cause damage to the fighter plane, nor to damage the fighter plane in the final stage.
Because he was too fast to pull up, according to regulations, he needed to start slowly recovering from a deep dive at an altitude of 1,500 meters.
The fighter's throttle lever has already reached the idle position at this time, so there is no need to give the fighter extra power during this dive.
The forward-swept wing has been stored in the fighter's main wing "wing box" at this time, and the tail wing has also been flattened. The performance of the X-02S in this situation is very good, and the speed continues to increase. Wang Yu had to raise it slightly
Some speed brakes to control the speed of the fighter plane.
The fighter plane passed through the thin clouds, and the sea in front of the field of vision was getting closer and closer.
Captain Zhang was the first to dive, so he was also the first to pull up. Under Wang Yu's watch, his fighter plane slowly leveled out from the dive. Wang Yu also informed Liu Lingxin to prepare for overload resistance, then fully opened the speed brakes and started.
Pull the lever slowly.
Don't dare to pull the lever hard at this time. When the speed of sound is close to the speed of sound, deadlifting can easily give yourself an overload of more than 10G and the person will be gone. Not to mention that it may overload the fighter structure and cause problems. Wang Yu believes that the X-02S should be able to block it.
10G overload, but I don’t really believe that I can hold on - the instantaneous overload does not matter, the main reason is that the process takes a long time, and the whole person has to bear the vertical overload until the leveling is successful...
The two people on the fighter plane leaned tightly against their seats, adjusted their breathing rhythm, and then used their abdominal and leg muscles to prevent the blood from flowing downwards. At the same time, a suffocating feeling enveloped them as the fighter plane gradually broke away from the deep dive.
them.
The moment the fighter plane begins to overload, the anti-gravity suit connected to the fighter plane immediately pressurizes the abdomen and legs to prevent the person's blood from flowing downwards and causing the brain to suffer from hypoxia and coma - but at this time, insufficient blood supply to the brain is inevitable.
Things, the physical effects cannot be blocked even by the most advanced anti-load suit, so even if Wang Yu and others have experienced hundreds of battles, they cannot avoid the impact of overload.
The vision in front of him only left a little brilliance in the middle. The surrounding area was shrouded in black, and his consciousness began to blur. But at least Wang Yu still maintained a certain ability to think. He could see that the nose of the fighter plane had begun to slowly rise.
Recovery from dive.
In about a few seconds, as the fighter gradually exits the dive state, the overload begins to subside.
Wang Yu could feel the blood surge increasing, and the vision in front of him became much clearer. He shook his head and began to look to both sides. The other fighters had also completed their dive recovery and were gradually returning to level flight.
There is still a white fog veil on the upper and back of each fighter plane that has not faded.
While Wang Yu continued to level the fighter plane, he couldn't help but think in his mind, how did female pilots like Luo Yu maintain such good figures while resisting overload?
Regarding Liu Lingxin's situation, Wang Yu knew that the girl's legs looked round and straight, but in fact, if you touch them, in addition to the soft skin on the surface, you can feel the solid muscles inside - the legs of the girl's legs.
The strength is really great. Wang Yu said that in certain positions, her waist muscles often compete with the strength of her legs, and sometimes it really hurts.
Well, speaking of which, I haven’t been with her for a while...
Wang Yu quickly broke away from these charming fantasies, and the fighter plane had already entered a level flight attitude.
He switched the altitude display to a more accurate radar altitude, which is an indispensable part of low-altitude flight. Then he began to gradually press the stick, letting the fighter plane's nose point down to slowly lower the altitude.
Five hundred meters, four hundred meters, three hundred meters...
Finally, the fighter plane's altimeter stabilized at fifty meters.
It is only fifty meters above the sea. Given the current speed of the fighter plane, just one careless move will destroy the plane and kill everyone.
There is already a vast sea in front of Wang Yu. This is not the first time for him to fly at such a low altitude on the sea, but every time he feels like he is driving a speedboat. Unfortunately, there has never been such a fast speedboat.
.
All fighters have dropped below 100 meters.
Wang Yu turned around and looked around, discovering the various squadrons in the brigade.
At this time, everyone kept a distance of about a hundred meters and flew close to the sea in the direction of Crown Bay.
They still need to fly like this for about twenty nautical miles.
"After reaching the final entry point, lower the altitude to less than 50 meters and stick to the sea surface. Don't be afraid of fuel consumption. We have time to return to replenish fuel."
Captain Zhang said: "More importantly, we must not be discovered by the Aisians before this."
As a result, as he spoke, the entire Gensokyo brigade's fighter planes flew towards Crown Bay at high speed with a posture close to the sea. When there was a distance of about ten nautical miles left, all the fighter planes lowered their altitude again.
This time, it was basically flying close to the sea surface.
However, the iconic King's Bridge at the entrance to Crown Bay also appeared in everyone's sight.
