The Second Division designated an irregular square sea area as a live ammunition firing area in the western sea area. It is obvious that the main content of this live ammunition firing is to shoot into the sea.
At this point, we have to talk about the competition between the Air Force and the Navy regarding sea operations. The Air Force has a large number of bases and stations in coastal areas, and coastal areas are the only areas where naval aviation is stationed. It can be said that the coastal areas have concentrated our military aviation forces.
Most of the elite strength of the army.
The HNA force has been weak for a long time. As the big brother, the Air Force has taken the initiative to shoulder the heavy responsibility of air defense and sea strikes in the far seas. This was no problem in the past. If the big brother of the Air Force does not take up the burden, it will be difficult for the HNA force to maintain territorial waters alone.
The airspace is safe.
But today is different from the past. The HNA force is growing day by day, and more and more units have been established. They not only fly dumplings but also fly planes, and even take over the aviation force directly from the Air Force. Under such circumstances, the HNA force naturally hopes to
It can take over the tasks of far-sea air defense and sea strike that originally belonged to us.
The big brother of the Air Force is unwilling to let go. The reason is simple - whoever has a stronger sense of presence will get more resources.
Under such circumstances, the two arms began to compete fiercely. You engage in sea strikes and high sea assaults, right? Then I also practice land strikes and homeland air defense. After all, we are all aviation forces, so it’s fair competition!
The Air Force occupies the leading position in air defense, while the Navy is the key service. The competition between the two gradually becomes equal, and they simply go hand in hand. The Navy also wants to understand that the naval aviation force will move toward carrier-based in the future.
Yes, there is little point in staying on land. Some stations in coastal areas will basically become shore bases for naval aviation forces in the future, as well as bases for bombers that cannot board ships.
So there is no great need to compete with the Air Force for these.
In this way, the Air Force will be happy. It can extend its range to the open sea and use a large number of long-range fighters, bombers and support aircraft to control the air defense of the open sea. In this case, the best way for the Navy is to develop into the open sea.
, exerting influence further afield. Competition between the military services can effectively promote the improvement of each other's combat effectiveness.
Under this background, many people subconsciously thought that since it was shooting at sea, it must be the Navy. Even the pictures and video materials attached by many news media were from the Navy, which made a big joke.
In fact, the Air Force has a service support base somewhere diagonally opposite the Xixian Station. The main task of that unit is to support the training of the troops, such as banning navigation in designated sea areas, deploying targets, and maintaining the security of prohibited sea areas.
Etc., etc.
The sea area for live ammunition firing has been prepared, and now we are waiting for the troops to conduct live ammunition firing.
At 3:45 p.m., three signal flares were launched into the sky. As soon as the troops moved in, the entire station suddenly came to life. The pilots quickly put the mission charts into their pockets and rushed out with their flight helmets in hand, stopping far away.
The pilots at the end of the tarmac were quickly sent there by commuter buses, while the other pilots ran directly to the fighters on the nearby parking bay.
Today, two regiments were sent out continuously for day and night live-fire shooting training. The J-10A of the fourth regiment formed the first detachment to shoot first, and the J-11B of the fifth regiment formed the second detachment. In order to participate in this day and night live-fire shooting, at Guibei Field
The Fourth Regiment stationed at the station for training transferred two groups of J-10As in large numbers.
Such climatic conditions objectively increase the difficulty of training for the Second Division and effectively improve the combat effectiveness of the troops. Now the troops' concept of combat training has begun to change. Wherever the weather is more complex, go wherever it is. Under complex weather conditions
Improve the combat effectiveness of the troops.
The tower gave Li Zhan a takeoff command, and Li Zhan, who was already waiting at the takeoff line, pushed the accelerator and released the brakes to start taxiing. The AL-31FN turbofan engine roared and pushed the fighter to accelerate. After reaching the allowed takeoff speed, Li Zhan simply
The nose of the aircraft was raised with a neat lever, and then the landing gear was immediately retracted. Before climbing, it turned at a large angle to the left, and climbed while turning.
The tower commander is a lieutenant colonel staff officer of the division headquarters, and the chief of staff of the headquarters is on duty. The change in the concept of military training is also reflected here. In the past, tower commanders were required to have a certain level and position, but now it is from division commander to regiment commander.
All commanders and military officers must participate in the entire combat training process, while the tower commander lets pilots and staff take turns taking the role.
Li Zhan's casual take-off skills amazed the tower commander, and the division chief of staff couldn't help but nod. They are all veterans, and the level of the pilots can be seen from the take-off movements. Of course they know the pilot of No. 17 J-10A
It's the famous Little Prince, but they have never seen the Little Prince flying, and now seeing is believing.
Because the live-fire shooting sea area is only tens of kilometers away from the site, the participating fighter jets did not form a formation. Instead, at certain time intervals, the two aircraft served as a shooting group, flew directly over to shoot, and then turned left to the south and left.
Li Zhan was at the end, and one minute later, Yu Chenglin led the J-11B detachment to take off. Since completing the modification of the J-11B, Yu Chenglin rarely flew J-10A. As a division leader, he often led
The troops went on patrol in the South China Sea.
There is also a chain of contempt in the Air Force. Heavy fighters look down on medium fighters, and medium fighters look down on light fighters. Specifically, those who drive the J-11 series look down on the J-10 series, and those who drive the J-10 series look down on the J-7
, J-8.
Generally speaking, unless all troops are equipped with J-10s and are equipped with J-10s and J-11s at the same time, the leaders of J-11 troops are usually
Later, when the J-10 and the J-11 were fighting against each other, the J-11 was taught a lesson on how to be a good person. The one who drove the J-11 was not so arrogant when facing the one who drove the J-10.
Divided according to grade, the Air Force's main fighter aircraft adopts a high-low mix. The J-11 is high-end and the J-10 is low-end. The J-10 was originally designed to replace the J-7. After all, heavy fighter jets have natural advantages. Especially
For the air force that yearns for long-distance strikes, the attraction of heavy fighter jets is extremely powerful.
In free air combat, the J-11 cannot defeat the J-10 at all. However, the Air Force's obsession with the J-11 is still unaffected. I believe that before the fourth-generation aircraft is fully put into service, the J-11 series of heavy fighter jets will be able to shoulder the burden of the Air Force.
The flag of the army.
While climbing, Li Zhan found a large cumulonimbus cloud in the southeast moving northwest, and immediately called the tower, "Tower, there is a large cumulonimbus cloud in the southeast, and it is moving towards the site. Let the weather station pay attention to it, over."
"The tower has received it, and the unit has been implemented according to the plan, completed."
"Yaoguai understands!"
Li Zhan was flying at an altitude of 2,000 meters above sea level, and adjusted his heading to 270 degrees according to the navigation chart, which is due west. The sea area for live ammunition shooting was in the southwest, so he had to fly west first, and then turn south after reaching the turning point.
, and then establish an attack route to attack the designated target.
At this time, it happened to be when the fighter in front turned left after shooting and left. The other pilots were able to watch Li Zhan's shooting demonstration at close range through the good view of the left wing. However, there was no way to get very close. For safety reasons, other pilots
Keep a certain distance from Li Zhan.
During the whole process of Li Zhan's shooting, only the J-11BS piloted by Yu Chenglin accompanied the action. The pilots in the rear cabin were responsible for shooting. They were also Li Zhan's support aircraft, observing the No. 17 J-10A from the outside to prevent accidents.
The forbidden sea area suddenly fell into flames of war.
Two shooting groups in a group entered the attack route one after another. Their attack routes were all different. In fact, they simulated our air strike fleet attacking enemy islands and sea targets with firepower from different directions, which required speed, accuracy and ruthlessness.
Enter quickly, hit quickly, hit accurately, hit hard, and withdraw quickly.
There are several islands and reefs in the prohibited sea area. The service support force has set up area targets and point targets on them. At the same time, they have deployed moving targets that follow the current in the designated sea area. The most difficult thing is to move the target that follows the current. It is possible that
Just a few square meters of white cloth, or even a small sampan.
To hit a target, you must first find the target.
At this time, the purpose of beating the troops was achieved. The pilot entered the mission airspace to conduct a search and used various methods to find the target in the vast sea.
The previous shooting went relatively smoothly, and the targets fixed on the islands were easy to find. The pilot entered the attack route according to the route on the aviation chart, aimed and fired, poured out the aircraft fire, and visually inspected the damage effect when turning away.
It's as simple as an infantryman shooting accurately from a prone position.
Li Zhan only had one fixed target, which was to use the LS-6 ammunition thrower to carry out coverage bombing within a range of 500 meters centered on the island and reef. Then he needed to use aircraft fire to attack those moving targets that were drifting with the tide.
If I don’t do something difficult, I would really miss the reputation of the little prince of the pull rod.
The fighters in front had all finished shooting, and it was time for Li Zhan to show off his superb and handsome flying shooting skills.
He moved his muscles up and down, and from time to time he would do a few barrel rolls to make the ammunition and fighter planes more closely connected, and then he would run at a variable speed to move his body.
He called the tower, "Tower, get ready, request attack, over."
"Yaoguai can carry out the attack as planned, over." Amidst the buzzing electronic interference, the tower commander's voice sounded hopeful.
Everyone wants to see this legend perform.
Come on, show it.
Li Zhan adjusted the flight altitude, and finally set it at a sea altitude of 2,300 meters. He then established an attack route, with the nose of the aircraft pointed at the islands and reefs. Setting the attack altitude was very critical, because what was to be dropped was the ammunition dispenser, in order to ensure coverage.
It is very accurate. Fighters cannot dive and attack like aircraft fire, but fly over the target in a horizontal bombing method. Therefore, factors such as attack altitude, flight speed, wind direction and wind strength will affect the landing point.
Li Zhan used the shooting Zhuyuan computer to calculate the shooting Zhuyuan and found that there were some errors in the mental arithmetic data, so he made some adjustments based on his own experience. This is the most important stage from being able to use it to being good at using it.
When he was about to reach the shooting point, Li Zhan immediately pressed the launch button after reporting. The LS-6 ammunition dispenser on the pylon detached, flew forward and fell under the action of inertia, and reached the parachute opening height.
, the landing was opened, the LS-6 ammunition dispenser stabilized its posture, and then six bullets were separated, and then the six bullets separated again more submunitions, fission layer by layer, to five hundred
At a height of 1.3 meters, hundreds of submunitions appeared separately, like a cloud of rain falling from the sky, falling faster and faster under the influence of gravity.
In an instant, all the sea water within a radius of 500 meters around the island seemed to suddenly boil, raising countless thin streams of boiling water, just like Tang Bohu sprinkled autumn fragrance on Tang Bohu's father's face.
The scene where a handful of thunderbolt steel balls exploded.
Li Zhan quickly turned away and was shocked by the effect of this attack when he looked down. This kind of ammunition is simply a nightmare for the enemy's light armored troops and infantry troops!
Such ammunition may not have strong cutting power, nor the ability to attack fortresses, but for light armored troops and infantry units with weak protection, this kind of ammunition that can release a large amount of ammunition in a short period of time to form a covering barrage is definitely a good choice.
A kind of nightmare existence.
Except for Li Zhan, all the J-10A detachments returned to replenish and prepare for the second round of live-fire training. They had already seen the use of the LS-6 ammunition dispenser demonstrated by Li Zhan. Yu Chenglin drove the J-11BS and accompanied him all the time.
Looking at Li Zhan, he observed the whole process at close range.
Next, Li Zhan will follow the J-11B detachment to conduct live-fire shooting, and he will act as an instructor to guide the troops' shooting.
The J-11B's aircraft fire scene is not so exciting. The J-10A is more flexible and enters at a faster speed, while the J-11B enters and fires slowly like an old man walking around. In terms of low-altitude and low-speed performance, the J-11B -
The 11B is more advanced, so it can often hit more accurately. In addition, the J-11B is a large aircraft, which can put a lot of psychological pressure on enemy personnel during dive attacks.
Anyone who sees a thirty-ton fighter plane diving towards them will be scared.
Li Zhan also saw the progress of the Second Division while giving guidance. Compared with five years ago, most of the pilots of the Second Division have reached the level of excellence in Li Zhan's mind. As the same saying goes, the most important thing to improve combat effectiveness is
The best way is to burn more aviation fuel and fire more live ammunition. Good pilots are made with massive amounts of aviation fuel and ammunition.
Soon, the J-11B detachment also completed the first round of live ammunition firing and began to return home. Li Zhan continued to hover over the prohibited sea area, waiting for instructions to attack moving targets on the sea.
Yu Chenglin wants to continue flying with Li Zhan and film the process of Li Zhan hitting moving targets on the sea to make a video tutorial. This is the main purpose of Yu Chenglin letting Li Zhan serve as a guest instructor. Everyone believes that what Li Zhan flies is the standard, and he
What he sets is the standard, and he is the super ace pilot who sets the standards.
Work in all aspects is being carried out steadily, and time is gradually reaching the point where the countdown to attack moving targets on the sea has begun.
