At this time, any reconnaissance pod is useless, and we can only rely on visual inspection to find the weak points of the mountain. The visibility is still not very ideal. Looking at the mountains on the north and south sides, they are slightly darker shadows.
When Li Zhan lowered his altitude, he was almost flying close to the lake. Fortunately, the area of Lake No. 1 was large enough, but because of the excessive water, it spread to the surrounding areas, making the area even larger. This gave Li Zhan more time to face the north.
Observe the mountain on the side.
It is impossible to hover over the lake. It is impossible to achieve it with the turning radius of the J-8FR, even if wing blades are installed to improve the hovering ability. I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve it with the J-10 with a canard aerodynamic layout. Maybe it is equipped with a vector
A fighter jet with an engine can easily circle over the lake with a very small turning radius.
In this case, Li Zhan had to repeatedly fly over the lake at low altitude, seizing the few seconds of flying over the lake to find the weak points of the mountain on the north side. The reason why Zhang Wei said that such a task is best performed by the Su-27,
It is precisely because the su-27 has a smaller minimum speed that it can operate more calmly.
Why did Li Zhan get the highest score in the division when he fired the J-7e for ground target shooting? He was admired by the officers and soldiers of the entire division, including the aces of the Sixth Regiment who fired the Su-27 with their nostrils pointing skyward. It was precisely because the J-7e's diving speed was too fast, leaving
The pilot has a very short time to aim at ground targets and fire cannons or rockets. If the minimum speed exceeds the flight envelope, it will stall. Objectively, the pilot is required to aim and fire the process in a shorter time.
As for the Su-27, because it has a very good minimum speed, during the dive, their pilots can aim at the ground target very calmly, then shoot very calmly, and then get up very calmly.
What is the concept of Li Zhan being able to finish shooting and then take a look at the shooting effect before pulling up the plane? His aiming and firing time is extremely short, and he is extremely skilled in controlling the fighter plane. This is hard kung fu and real kung fu, you
It’s impossible not to admire him.
From east to west and then from west to east, Li Zhan flew over the lake repeatedly. On this low-altitude flying route, there was an abrupt mountain peak in the west that formed an obstacle. Therefore, every time Li Zhan flew from east to west,
When flying, you must turn immediately after flying over the lake, otherwise you will hit a mountain and it will be too late to pull up and climb.
After carefully flying back and forth for three times, Li Zhan found the approximate location, but the visibility was limited, so he couldn't be sure which location was the best attack point.
I had to ask the tower for help.
Li Zhan called, "Tower, when will the window appear? I have probably found a point, but I need to confirm. When will the visibility improve?"
As he spoke, he looked at the fuel gauge.
Taking off with full fuel, there is still less than half of the fuel at this time, so the pressure is not very great, but the key is that we don’t know when those critical ten minutes will appear.
"Yao Dong Yao, in a few minutes, pay attention to the west. The clouds will move eastward. The light will come from the west first. You need to control the angle yourself." Fang Chenghe received accurate data from the meteorological department.
Being able to be accurate to the minute, Li Fengxiang and others have already achieved the highest level.
Li Zhan turned back and turned the plane's nose to the west. When he looked up, he saw the tail of the clouds. It was probably the top of the mountain in the distance that was beginning to crack, and weak sunlight came in. He did not hesitate and flew from east to west again.
Pass by and then turn around on the west side.
At this time, more sunlight was projected from the west, and an obvious dividing line between light and darkness moved rapidly eastward with the movement of clouds on the surface, and finally crossed Lake No. 1.
Li Zhan also passed the lake again from west to east. Within a few seconds, he looked down to the right and clearly saw that the lowest point of the mountain on the south side was the weakest point. He immediately made a note of it.
After checking the terrain characteristics, he decisively pulled up the plane. After reaching some altitude, he turned on the laser pod and used laser to illuminate the determined direction.
After knowing what he knew, Li Zhan called the tower, "Tower, Yaodongyao report, I am ready to attack. I will use No. 3 ammunition first, and then use No. 4 ammunition depending on the situation."
Ammunition No. 3 is the code name for precision ammunition, which requires the use of a laser pod to illuminate and guide the target in order to achieve the most accurate attack.
Fang Chenghe asked, "Yao Dong Yao, how do you plan to attack?"
This question is not asked casually.
The J-8fr has a relatively high speed and a greater dive speed. To continue to illuminate the attack point, it means that the fighter plane must be farther and higher, otherwise the precise ammunition will be launched before it hits the target fighter. However, if
If the fighter plane is too far and too high, the error will be greater.
This seems to be a difficult problem to solve.
If satellite-guided precision ammunition is used, this problem will not exist. The pilot only needs to obtain the target orientation data, input the data into the seeker of the ammunition, power on, launch, and then fly the plane home. This is a relatively low-level launch and forget.
Ammunition. There are also some that can chase mobile targets and are more advanced.
Li Zhan was silent for a long time.
In everyone's memory, he has never been in this situation.
Unexpectedly, Li Zhan asked, "Tower, is there a second chance to take off before dark? If I can complete the attack and return within fifteen minutes."
Fang Chenghe was stunned for a moment and quickly looked at the time. At fifteen forty-seven, he looked at Li Fengxiang again. Li Fengxiang was analyzing nervously and said in a deep voice, "According to the current trend, there should be a second chance."
Things are changing all the time, maybe yes, maybe not, maybe for better, maybe for worse.
Even gods may not be able to guarantee that everything can be completed successfully one hundred percent of the time.
"Yao Dong Yao, I can't give you an accurate answer now, but you know the situation best and it's up to you to decide." Fang Chenghe made a very correct decision at this moment. He did not give the order blindly, but handed it over to Li Zhan.
Make your own decision.
Li Zhan said in a deep voice, "Tower, I understand, please make sure you are prepared."
"receive."
Fang Chenghe did not need to give special instructions. Yu Chenglin, who served as his deputy, had already picked up the phone and issued an order to Lou Yiwang's maintenance team. All personnel and positions entered the highest standby state. As soon as Li Zhan returned, he immediately refueled the fighter planes.
During refueling and emergency maintenance, the fighter aircraft must be able to take off again in the shortest possible time, racing against the changing weather in the disaster area.
Over Lake No. 1, Li Zhan took a deep breath and no longer hesitated. He pulled up the fighter plane and began to dive at a dangerous distance and altitude. He only gave himself three seconds to pull up and break away. This was Li Zhan's turn.
The choice of battle is currently the only way to ensure the best accuracy.
