The first battle took place in sunny weather. Li Zhan and Chen Ming piloted the Black Ribbon detachment against eight J-11B fighters.
After the two-hour confrontation ended, the J-11B returned to land first, and the two Black Ribbons finally landed calmly. The entire Beiku Station fell into a strange atmosphere. Everyone who witnessed this confrontation, participated in this
Everyone who participated in the confrontation, except for the members of the Black Ribbon test flight team, was shocked.
Fang Chenghe took the result in his hand and read it from top to bottom for the third time. He was sure that he had read it correctly, but he still couldn't help but ask Yang Jingshan beside him, "There is no error in the result?"
"Yes, no." Yang Jingshan said with a dry throat.
Fang Chenghe strode away from the tower and headed to the apron. When he got there, he saw sixteen Falcon Group pilots sitting in a row on the small bench there, all with dull expressions. This kind of expression will only be seen in others.
Unbelievable things happen when they happen.
No need to ask, it was definitely a huge blow.
1 to 142.
1 to 142!
1 to 142!!
1 to 142!!!
The result of the confrontation between the Black Ribbon piloted by Li Zhan and the eight J-11Bs was a battle loss ratio of 1:142! The Black Ribbon piloted by Chen Ming also achieved a battle loss ratio of 1:103!
Such a result was not to mention unexpected. It was a result that no one could have imagined and absolutely did not believe. However, it happened bloody and became a cruel and irrefutable fact.
It is true that there is a reason for this because of the pilot. After all, Li Zhan is at a height that is beyond everyone's reach. But as for Chen Ming, he is the captain of the test flight brigade, and he is engaged in test flights, while the Eagle flies 400 flights a year.
Many hours of combat piloting!
1 to 103!
It’s no longer a matter of shame or shame, but it’s that when someone holds a nuclear bomb, you only have a fruit knife and it’s still rusty!
There is no comparability at all.
The mood of the Falcon pilots is very, very sad and heavy, and their self-confidence system is gradually collapsing. They may be able to accept a battle loss ratio of 1:20, 1:30 or even more. After all, there is an era gap between them.
.
However, the 1:3-digit battle loss ratio was completely beyond expectations, and it was a result they could not accept. They would doubt themselves, had their combat skills deteriorated, or had they just been watching the sky from a well over the past few years? No matter what,
There should not be such a huge battle loss ratio.
Li Zhan greeted Fang Chenghe and went directly to the team. If he wanted to say who he cared about most, the pilots of the Falcon Group were definitely the first. He could understand everyone's feelings at this moment very well, and at this moment
Ideological intervention must be carried out as soon as possible, otherwise it will be very difficult to rebuild the self-confidence system after it collapses.
He took off his starched white labor protection gloves and folded them into his trouser pocket. Chen Ming pulled a stool over for him to sit on, and he started chatting with everyone as if he were having a heart-to-heart talk.
"You're surprised, right? Yes, I'm surprised too. Black Ribbon has never conducted a similar confrontation test before. Everyone's understanding of Black Ribbon's air combat capabilities is only on paper, including of course the test flight team and R&D
team."
"Surprised, but shouldn't be shocked. I can tell you responsibly that I did not use all my strength during the confrontation. If I had used all my strength, the gap in the battle loss ratio would be even greater. Why this happened is completely unimaginable.
What’s the result?”
"This is the significance of the fourth-generation aircraft. During the entire confrontation, you had no power to fight back. Black Ribbon was the first to attack many times. Why did this happen? The fourth-generation aircraft completely crushed the third-generation aircraft.
The biggest reason is the comprehensive combat performance. My deepest feeling is that I have a very deep and keen awareness of the battlefield situation. This is why some of you obviously seized the opportunity to attack, but in the end I was the one to attack first.
"
"I am satisfied with the flying skills and combat awareness you have displayed. The Falcon Brigade has not declined in recent years, and you should not lose confidence because of this. However, I also feel everyone's confusion and some uncertainty about the future.
The commander of this incident mentioned to me that it is not only common in the Falcon Brigade, but also in the troops under the entire base. This is understandable. The troops under the base have developed rapidly, and the combat capabilities of the troops have improved quickly. Other aspects have not followed suit.
This is a normal situation, and Mina cannot be avoided."
"But you don't have to worry. I won't leave soon after I come back this time. I have taken up a temporary position as the training director of the base. I will organize the training in the future, and I will also organize the political and ideological education. The Falcon Brigade is the benchmark, and I will give it to
The aviation force of the entire army has set a new standard. It is inevitable that some comrades will be a little moody.
, don’t worry, everyone just follow me.”
He pointed back at the Black Ribbon parked in the hangar not far away, and said, "Black Ribbon, our fourth-generation aircraft. I have seen the American F-22A, and through limited observation I have a rough idea.
Judgment. I can tell you this, the overall comprehensive performance of our black ribbon mass production version will definitely exceed the F-22A. What does this mean?"
Li Zhan smiled when he said this, slowly glanced at everyone, and said, "Do you find it incredible, or think I am exaggerating? You see, this is the inertia of thinking. Because we have been in a backward position for a long time, we have formed a kind of
There is an inertia of thinking that the things we build are definitely not as good as foreign ones. Comrades, today is different from the past. Thirty years from Hedong to thirty years from Hexi, we will not always lag behind, and the current situation is that we have a very big opportunity
The moment when I see the People’s Air Force ranking first in the world in my lifetime or even in my professional life.”
"This requires me, you, and all our comrades to work together and work hard for the same goal!"
There was a roar of warm applause, and the officers and soldiers were flushed with excitement. The previous frustrations had long been wiped away. They had a feeling that as long as the old captain was here, our unit would never be defeated. Now, in the future,
Everyone firmly believes that countless Li Zhans will continue to appear, and these people will become the backbone of the army and the most solid force of the People's Air Force.
Of course, all pilots aspire to become Li Zhan-style pilots, and this is their goal.
In the future, no one will remember such messy nicknames as the Little Prince of Pull Rods, the Mad Dog of the South China Sea, the Little Political Prince, the Butcher of the Mediterranean, and the Nemesis of Pirates. When officers and soldiers think of Li Zhan, they will only think of his only honor.
