Chapter 554 The Beiku Eagle Falcon Has Become Climate
In the garden pavilion of the Bayi Hotel, four old Beiku, Li Zhan, Tang Leilei, Zhu Wei and Yang Jingshan, sat together and talked. The service in the hotel was very thoughtful. Two soldiers brought the tea and placed it on the stone coffee table for everyone to enjoy.
Zhu Wei took a sip of cigarettes and said, "Old Li, our reconnaissance brigade has changed to an intelligence support brigade. Our tactical reconnaissance aircraft has been reduced to a squadron. In the future, we will form an intelligence brigade with other support fighter jets, including electronic fighter jets."
"Very good." Li Zhan was very satisfied. This was originally the roadmap drawn by his 101st Brigade, a hybrid combat force with truly independent combat capabilities.
Although Zhu Wei is still the captain of the brigade, the status of the simple tactical reconnaissance brigade and the intelligence support brigade are completely different. I don’t know how much value the latter is. If you join the medium-sized early warning aircraft such as the Y-200 in the later stage,
He, the captain, is definitely the commander who can rank in the combat brigade.
"But the Eagle Falcon Brigade is going to be reduced." Zhu Wei glanced at Yang Jingshan and continued to introduce the situation of the troops to Li Zhan. "The brigade officially named the Eagle Falcon Brigade. The Eagle Falcon Brigade is going to transfer out the cross fighter jets and change it to
The standard brigade of eighteen fighter jets is organized, with four tactical squadrons under its jurisdiction. In the future, the tactical squadrons will be the most basic tactical unit and will be directly commanded by the air defense base. The brigade is mainly managed daily, and the same is true for the brigade organs."
The two command levels are omitted in the middle, greatly simplifying the command process. All tactical squadrons are uniformly under the combat command of the air defense base, which is an important symbol of the flattening of the command mechanism.
"Okay, okay, very good." Li Zhan was very pleased and was developing in a good direction.
Although the number of fighter jets organized by the Eagle Falcon Brigade has decreased, from the overall perspective, the combat capability of the 101st Brigade has been enhanced with the optimization of its organization, and the combat efficiency and the flexibility of the troops have been greatly improved.
In the era of Xue Dapao, probably when Li Zhan was responsible for forming the "Mad Devil Brigade" of the military region's air blue army, the predecessor of the Eagle Falcon Brigade, he proposed a plan and clearly directed the direction in which the troops should develop. More than three years have passed,
From the regiment to the brigade to the station to the base, the development of the old troops was very stable and basically became a reality according to his vision.
According to the establishment of 40 to 50 fighter jets, the 101st Brigade directly organized 4 managed aviation brigades and 16 tactical squadrons, with 3-4 fighter jets as a basic tactical unit, which can be flexibly combined and used in combat, and will be matched with this.
The corresponding training method is by no means as simple as organizational changes.
The most core change is that the brigade organs and brigades focus on daily management, and the daily training and combat command are all handed over to the air defense base, and the air defense base directly commands the tactical squadron. The previous slow tower-command post-fighter vertical command mode
It has been completely changed, relying on the Beiku Tactical Intelligence Interaction Center, horizontal command and horizontal intelligence sharing are achieved between the air defense base and all mission fighter jets.
In other words, the Beiku Air Defense Base and the 101st Brigade have begun to take shape as an information combat force.
Yang Jingshan smiled and took over the conversation, "What are you planning to stay at HNA in the future? Should you consider waiting for the Feisha training camp to come back to Beiku? Now Beiku has ushered in a period of great development, and I won't say anything else..."
He pointed to the rank of major on Li Zhan’s shoulder and the battalion-level qualifications on his left chest, "You can be the captain of Feisha at most, and return to Beiku, at least start with the deputy chief of staff of the brigade."
"What are you thinking about?" Li Zhan said with a smile.
Zhu Wei smiled and said, "Old Li, the Deputy Chief of Staff is now the Chief of Staff. However, the Chief of Staff is not talking about our 101st Brigade. The 102nd Regiment and the 103rd Regiment have been determined to change the brigade, and preparations will be started in the second half of the year.
.”
"Oh? I'm going to change my voyage?" Li Zhan was surprised, and he didn't expect the speed to be so fast.
Tang Leilei's eyes were rolling, "Both regiments are going to change to brigades, and there are a lot of more positions at once."
"Xiao Tang, do you have any ideas?" Yang Jingshan asked Tang Leilei with a smile.
Tang Leilei smiled awkwardly and said, "I'll listen to the number one brother."
"What do you listen to him? Come back to Beiku and use your ability to be a team leader and combat section chief," Yang Jingshan said with a smile.
Li Zhan smiled helplessly, "Chief of Staff, don't poach you. I personally am willing to go back to Beiku, but this is basically impossible. The organization has been assigned to HNA, and the Sea Service will not release people."
"What a great opportunity, what a pity." Yang Jingshan said regretfully.
Both regiments will be changed to aviation brigades, and there will be a large number of leadership positions. With Li Zhan's status in Beiku and his current ability, let alone the deputy chief of staff, it is not impossible for him to be the chief of staff of the brigade.
But the facts are also cruel. The organization of the quasi-flying sharks who came from Li Zhan and the Air Force was included in HNA, and it is basically impossible to go back.
Li Zhan said, "It's a pity that the future is long. In this way, there will be three aviation brigades in the Beiku Air Defense, which will definitely become a model for air force organization reform."
"Yes, the superiors have a lot of support," said Yang Jingshan.
Zhu Wei asked, "Old Li, what's going on with your level? Those who are both promoted at the same time as you, why are you still standing still in the same position as you?"
He had wanted to ask a long time ago.
Nie Jianfeng has already been a deputy lieutenant colonel, deputy chief of staff and captain of the Eagle Falcon Brigade, and is very likely to take a step further after the 102nd and 103rd regiments have been successfully transformed into brigades, and he will serve as the chief of staff or deputy brigade commander of one of the brigades. Although Nie Jianfeng
He was sent to the army three or four years earlier than Li Zhan, but Li Zhan's merits are more dazzling. He also has an extremely important grassroots work experience in establishing the Eagle Falcon Brigade. It seems abnormal to have no change in military rank and level.
Li Zhan shook his head helplessly and said, "The Chief of Staff should know the reason, right?"
Yang Jingshan nodded slightly, "I should be able to guess. Others are worried about the lack of conditions for promotion in advance, but you are too sufficient. You have so many first-class merits and two honorary titles at the level of the entire army. From this perspective, I gave you a year to
It’s not too much for you to upgrade. But here’s the problem.”
Zhu Wei and Tang Leilei both pricked their ears and listened. They really couldn't understand why their superiors treated Li Zhan differently.
Yang Jingshan said, "But judging from Li Zhan's personal development, too fast promotion is a bad thing. How old is he? He is less than 30 years old. The key is that he has only been in the army for four years, right? He has been promoted once every four years in the military rank. You are now a chief
There is no problem at all. In other words, because your merits are too excessive, your superiors should not give you advancement early, so you have to slowly endure the years."
"Yes, although I didn't say it clearly, I know that this is probably the reason." Li Zhan smiled helplessly, "You must be clear that there are a lot of subsidies for military rank and salary levels. Tell me how much money I will lose."
I was speechless. Is it most important to have a little money for more than a month? Of course not! What is important is that if you have a military rank and level, you will have a good position in the future but your level is not enough, so you can only watch it
Others make progress.
Yang Jingshan comforted and said, "You can do it with peace of mind, accumulate strength and get through the past few years. If you advance once a year or two, you will probably be ahead of us in a few years."
"It's not easy to survive, right?" Tang Leilei said, "Four years and one level. So the first brother will be able to be a lieutenant colonel next year and will be able to be a colonel in 2017. My God, by that time the first brother will be thirty-five or six years old
They are all old!"
Yang Jingshan glared, "Who are you talking about? I am thirty-eight years old, I am in the colonel's regiment, but I don't think I'm old."
Tang Leilei laughed.
In fact, it is not an exaggeration. Why are pilots generally at higher levels? There are more than a dozen colonels and colonel pilots in a unit, and many of them do not have leadership positions, because pilots start relatively high and are promoted relatively faster, and are in their thirties.
The colonel regiment is rare in the army, but it is very common in the air force and navy, which is the characteristic of a highly technical military service.
On the other hand, it is even more critical - the professional life of a pilot is only thirty years.
Even if you start flying at the age of 20 and have been dead for 25 years, you can fly to fifty in some special circumstances, but that is very rare. Therefore, this stage of being in your thirties is the beginning of a career for other troops.
Starting, but the pilot has entered the late stage of the golden stage, and his physical fitness and experience are at the end of the perfect stage. After the age of forty, his physical fitness will decline, and he will count the days and wait until the age limit is grounded.
Grounding basically means retirement, and not everyone can transfer to ground staff.
Yang Jingshan is on the decline, and his physical fitness is getting worse every year. He is lucky. After all, he has started to take the leadership position, and more people are waiting like veterans to go to the ground and retire and say goodbye to their military career.
Therefore, Tang Leilei's words are not exaggerated. Pilots of 35 or 36 years old are really getting old, especially fighter pilots! The best age for fighter pilots is Li Zhan and his group of pilots, with the best physical fitness and experience.
on the state of
The time to fly is really limited. The Air Force tried the Youth Aviation School model many years ago, recruiting 14 or 15-year-old teenagers from junior high schools to study in pre-schools until they went to the army to serve, which was like a local full-time college.
The school’s targeted training model. The purpose of this is to set the pilot’s service time two to three years ahead of the pilot trained in the ordinary model.
However, with the service of the third-generation aircraft, such a model has proved that it cannot meet the needs of the troops, because the third-generation aircraft puts higher technical requirements on pilots, and junior high school students can't keep up with the requirements directly entering the pre-school study.
Li Zhan said, "I have no interest in management positions. In fact, as long as I can fly a plane, it doesn't matter what the military rank is. No matter how high or low it is, it's still impossible to fly two planes at the same time." :://
"Who said it was impossible?" Zhu Wei smiled, "When driving a drone, there is no problem in controlling several fighter jets by one person."
Li Zhan smiled and said, "That's the future. Not to mention that, when I can't fly, I would rather drive a drone than go to the management position. I'm not suitable for administration."
"It's true. Look at what happened when you were the captain of the Eagle Falcon Brigade. You don't care about personnel and administration. If the brigade headquarters hadn't supported you, you wouldn't know what the Eagle Falcon Brigade would have been like." Yang Jingshan said with a smile.
At the beginning, he was also a member of the Eagle Falcon Brigade. He had no position in the brigade, but he was the chief of staff of the regiment, so he helped Li Zhan manage the Eagle Falcon Brigade as the chief of staff of the regiment. Otherwise, Li Zhan would not be able to concentrate on training. (Starring,

After spreading his hands, Li Zhan smiled and said, "So, I am not confused at all. What's wrong with the Major's Correction Battalion? It doesn't affect my pull rod at all, nor does it affect my heart that serves the people wholeheartedly, for construction.
The strong people's navy is determined to contribute a lot of strength."
"You are suitable for political worker jobs." Yang Jingshan said.
Everyone laughed out loud.
"Old Li! Chief of Staff Yang, Captain Zhu, the delegation leader looked for Li Zhan, Xiao Tang, you are also here." Zhang Xueyang strode over and said after saying hello to everyone.
Li Zhan said, "It's probably about learning and communicating with French Navy pilots, so I'll go there."
"Okay. Let's talk back."
The three of them hurried to the delegation leader's room. Cao Fufei was waiting in the lobby and hurried over. The delegation's leader was a director of the Air Service, named He Xinghai, who was fully responsible for leading the team this time.
During the military exchanges in France, Mo Ren'an was one of the captains of the pilot team, mainly responsible for the pilot. In addition to more than a dozen pilots, there were more than a dozen officers in other positions.
He Xinghai and Mo Ren'an were discussing learning and exchanges with French naval pilots. After Li Zhan and the other two came, they also had preliminary plans.
He asked everyone to sit down, He Xinghai said, "The French side is very active. In principle, they are willing to respect our suggestions. There are not many opportunities like this, so I want to hear your ideas and plan to focus on learning and exchange.
?”
Li Zhan did not hesitate at all and said, "I personally hope to have the opportunity to drive Phantom 2000-5 and Gun M, and it is best to be able to fly several times on the ship."
"How many flights are flying on the ship?" Mo Ren'an's face changed, "The French side is unlikely to agree."
He Xinghai was also very surprised, but he was quite calm. He thought for a while and asked, "Where is Phantom 2000-5? Why do you want to fly this plane?"
"I fought with Phantom 2000-5 some time ago, so I suffered a little loss. I urgently hope to understand the advantages and disadvantages of this model of aircraft." Li Zhan said.
Needless to say it too bluntly, everyone knows why Phantom 2000-5 is raised to a high position of attention. Li Zhan has a lot of knowledge about the F-16, and it is suitable for military exchanges in Pakistan.
It was more than thirty hours, and this time alone had reached the standard of solo flight.
But he hasn't had the chance to get in touch with Phantom 2000-5.
He Xinghai and Mo Ren'an looked at each other and said, "You can mention it. As for whether the French agrees or not, we will talk about it later. But we need to make some preparations. Apart from driving the above two types of fighter jets, do you have any other ideas?"
"Chief, I want to know how their flight training on the ship is organized, the difference between ejection takeoff and leap takeoff, etc. Of course, the most ideal thing is to fly a few racks, even theirs
The instructor takes the flight, feel the catapult takes off." The idea proposed by Zhang Xueyang is more realizable.
It seems a bit whimsical to fly on Li Zhan a few times when he wants to fly on the ship. It is basically impossible to drive, but it is still okay to take you to fly one or two ups and downs to make you feel it.
However, Li Zhan will never let go of the situation when he has the opportunity to make a request. He said, "Chief, in fact, I hope to drive all models participating in military exchange activities, according to the information provided by the French side,
Russia, Britain, Germany, and the United States will send planes to participate, and the opportunity is rare. India will also send planes, but Indians will definitely not want us to contact their planes."
This is even more excessive. What if you want to eat?
