Zhang Yuan walked towards Qi Hong, who was getting off the roof of the fire truck, and said directly, "Political Commissar, this method simply won't work. Even if all the links are perfect, the possibility of failure is extremely high."
"Think about it, if a fighter jet weighing six or seven tons hits a pickup truck at a speed of 40 to 50 kilometers per hour, can the pickup truck withstand it?"
"The pickup truck is only stationary relative to the fighter plane, but it is actually moving forward. It can buffer a lot of impact. I think the solution is feasible." Yu Chenglin jumped out of the commuter car, took off his white labor protection gloves, and said in a deep voice.
, "But the premise is that Li Zhan must put the nose landing gear into the rear bucket very accurately and control the speed of the fighter jet accurately."
The cockpit is dark and nothing can be seen.
Qi Hong asked Yu Chenglin, "Do you want to try again?"
"No need, there is no more meaning." Yu Chenglin shook his head.
Zhang Yuan frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "If this plan is to be adopted, I suggest seeking Li Zhan's opinion. I don't think he will agree."
"What reason does he have for not agreeing?" Qi Hong looked at Zhang Yuan and asked.
Zhang Yuan said, "He will not drag his comrades to die with him."
When these words came out, everyone fell silent.
No one noticed a single detail. Did Zhang Yuan know Li Zhan very well? Apart from that brief exchange at the tower, they didn't know each other at all!
The flight control personnel have already deployed a temporary command position on the grassland, where they can also have land and air conversations with Li Zhan, and relevant data will be transmitted here in real time.
Time is running out and a decision must be made as soon as possible.
Qi Hong immediately established contact with Li Zhan and called, "Dong Sanguai, I am No. 1. There is a plan on the ground to use a pickup truck as a front landing gear support to assist you in making an emergency landing. What do you think?"
Without any further explanation, Li Zhan immediately figured out the solution, and without any hesitation, he said decisively, "I don't think it's reliable. I can't even find the runway now, and I have no conditions at all."
The front landing gear fell accurately into the back bucket of the pickup truck."
After a pause, Li Zhan said, "No. 1, I have an idea."
"you say."
Li Zhan said, "I just tried to lower the landing gear several times. According to my judgment, the nose landing gear should have got stuck when it was halfway up. The maintenance inspection was very careful, and there was no mechanical problem. I analyzed that maybe it was just now
I performed a large overload maneuver at supersonic speed, causing the aircraft body to deform to a certain extent, causing the nose landing gear to become stuck."
"Your judgment makes sense. The nose landing gear can only be lowered halfway." Qi Hong said.
Li Zhan said, "I want to go to the speed of sound and do a large overload maneuver to see if I can throw out the nose landing gear."
It is definitely a bold idea, even bolder than the idea of using a pickup truck to make an emergency landing. However, if you think about it carefully, the method proposed by Li Zhan is much easier to implement than the pickup truck plan! Li Zhan is now operating blindly, and the airspace has been cleared.
, at least the airspace within a radius of 100 kilometers below 5,000 meters is safe, except for the Nangang Airport area.
There is absolutely room to do the movements without worrying too much about the position!
Moreover, blind maneuvers are not difficult at all for a would-be ace pilot like Li Zhan.
Qi Hong asked, "What maneuver are you planning to do?"
"Continuous rolling." Li Zhan had already thought about it. It was too difficult and he was not sure, so he had to roll. "If it doesn't work once, just roll it twice. If it doesn't work twice, just roll it three times. I should be able to use more than half of the oil."
hours.”
"Rolling at supersonic speed?" Qi Hong took a slight breath of the cool summer night air.
Li Zhan said affirmatively, "Yes, otherwise I'm worried that I won't have enough strength."
Several people around Qi Hong heard it. Li Zhan had his reasons for thinking this way. If the nose landing gear cannot be thrown out at once, it may get stuck. Instead of trying step by step, it is better to take risks and get it in place at once.
, if it works or not, you can have more time to look for other solutions.
Is there anything worse than abandoning a plane and skydiving?
If so, it can only be that the plane crashed in a residential area.
After weighing the situation, Qi Hong agreed to Li Zhan's request and said, "Agreed, heading 180, maintain airspeed for one minute. I will notify you when we arrive and wait for instructions."
"Heading 180, maintain airspeed for one minute, got it."
Li Zhan immediately adjusted the course based on his feeling, without moving the throttle, and flew westward at cruising speed for one minute. There was a large area of farmland over there, belonging to a state-owned farm. The area was very large. If the plane were to crash, it would only land in the farmland.
It will not threaten the lives and safety of ordinary people.
The radar monitored closely, and Qi Hong reported the specific location and flight data of his plane to Li Zhan as quickly as possible. Thanks to the radar unit equipped with advanced phased array radar, the tower can grasp the position of the fighter jet very accurately. This
It also reflects the technical and equipment gap between the Air Force aviation force and the ground radar force. The development pace of the former is much slower.
After confirming that the position met the requirements, Li Zhan put his hand on the throttle lever and said, "I'm starting."
Turn on the afterburner and push the throttle lever all the way. Aviation fuel is injected into the afterburner, and the wp-13f jet engine instantly bursts out with super power. The nozzle suddenly spits out a long orange-red tail flame, even though it is four thousand meters away.
The height is still clearly visible when looking up from the ground.
Occasionally, you can see a bright light flashing across the night sky. Most likely it is not a meteor, but a fighter jet flying at night with afterburner turned on.
Li Zhan's blind maneuvers were as fierce as a tiger's. The fighter plane rolled continuously at supersonic speed. Because of the gravity of the earth, the rudder must be stepped on alternately during the rolling process to ensure that the fighter plane moves straight forward.
, so the operation is not as simple as imagined.
It is very easy to fly at supersonic speed during night flight, and rolling itself is a low-difficulty combat stunt. Doing roll at supersonic speed during night flight is not very difficult...
However, if you add a blind exercise, it is definitely not simple.
Moreover, Li Zhan's purpose was to throw out the landing gear, which meant that he had to seize the right opportunity to put the landing gear. Another thing is that after the landing gear is put out, it will inevitably destroy the aerodynamic state of the fighter plane and change the attitude of the fighter plane.
Therefore, he had to return to normal speed in the shortest possible time and control his flight attitude at the same time.
This is a series of operations that are already very complex.
At this moment, the danger encountered by fighter No. 037 has been reported to the military region and filed with the aviation department. The upper two levels will respond, and the worst-case plan can be used. Decades of Air Force development history can
I have encountered all the dangers that are said to arise.
The dangerous situation Li Zhan is currently encountering is unprecedented for the Second Division, and it is extremely rare even for the Guangdong Aviation Force. However, it is not very new for the entire aviation force.
The characteristic is that what Li Zhan encountered was not a single extremely serious danger, but a complex dangerous situation composed of several first-class dangers or general dangers. In terms of technical difficulty, it was no easier than a single extremely serious danger.
However, many officers and soldiers of the Second Division couldn't help but wonder, including those on the scene, whether Li Zhan really brought his own black koi. As long as he flew, as long as it was a competitive training, he would definitely encounter something like this.
Except for the last live ammunition shooting, there is no exception.
