Six Z-2 light helicopters, each armed with four Red Arrow-9 anti-tank missiles, faced an armored column lacking effective air cover......

It's really like a corkscrew, and it's a dozen-to-hit against tanks and infantry chariots.

In just a few minutes, 12 Type 88 tanks and eight Type 86 infantry vehicles of the 3rd Battalion of the X Regiment in charge of the attack slowly emitted yellow smoke on both sides of the road that stretched for hundreds of meters.

The 3rd Battalion, which had been hit suddenly, had to stop the attack and shrink their front, because they did not know exactly how many helicopters were coming from the attacking side.

After all, their dense air defense network has been torn open, and what is even more paradoxical is that the Z-2 light helicopter that attacked them this time was the same as the ancient assassins, and it was silent throughout the whole process, and it was impossible to judge its location and number by sound.

Under such circumstances, the Z-2 light helicopter suddenly came out, and the effect was to put the third battalion under great psychological pressure, because they did not know where an anti-tank missile would fly in the next moment, and then their tank would burst into the soul with yellow smoke.

Seeing that the menacing Third Battalion was forced to retreat by six light helicopters, the commander of the second battalion of the "fallen man" X Regiment, who had been observing the battle situation, was called a thumping in the chest.

The six Z-2 light helicopters carried a total of 24 Red Arrow-9 anti-tank missiles, which is really one larger and one less when it is far from the rear.

Under such circumstances, the 3rd Battalion, which has 58 tanks and infantry vehicles of various types, should desperately try to push this infiltrated detachment into the sea.

After all, if this kind of defensive gap cannot be quickly blocked, the attacker will seize the opportunity to rush forward the next moment, and it will be difficult to turn the tables when the initiative changes hands.

As a result, the third battalion was frightened by the silent and elusive Zhi-2 light helicopter and shrank back directly, which made the commander of the second battalion, who was the X regiment, not beat his chest.

......

In fact, it was not only the second battalion commander at the scene who beat his chest, but also in the general adjustment hall of the director's department, and there were not a few people who were the same, including the two old leaders of the X regiment, who were so angry that they blew their beards and glared, scolding their old subordinates for not planting.

The heavily armed battalion, which was fully manned, was actually driven back by a mere six helicopters, and it was a shame that it was thrown home.

But scolding and scolding, these troop leaders also know in their hearts that they can see the overall situation from God's perspective to have such an intuitive feeling, if they are on the front line, in the face of the silent and sudden killing of armed helicopters, what other good way is there to retreat and reorganize the troops?

The answer is just two words: no.

Then the question arises, what method did the Z-2 light helicopter used by the Army Aviation Special Forces Brigade use to reduce the noise of the roaring helicopter to almost the same level as the background noise of the battlefield, so as to reach a negligible level?

"Lao Meng, you know helicopters best here, tell me, what's going on with this Z-2 light helicopter used by the Army Aviation Special Forces Brigade?"

It is not only the leaders of the troops who are curious, but also the head of the headquarters, although the special forces brigade of the army aviation was formed by him at the behest of the public, and he has inspected it several times in the middle.

However, as a military leader in charge of the overall situation, the head of the general department could not be meticulous in everything, but he only knew that after comparing and comparing the special forces of the army aviation unit, he finally selected the Tengfei Group to develop several special helicopters for the special forces brigade of the army aviation to carry out high-risk assault and infiltration missions.

As for the specific situation, the head of the headquarters didn't know much, but he had seen the full-scale model and the basic performance introduction, and he didn't think anything at the time, but it was lighter than the average light helicopter.

It was not until today, when the Army Aviation Special Forces Brigade applied the Z-2 light helicopter to the exercise, that the head of the headquarters discovered that the biggest feature of this not outstanding light helicopter was its quietness.

Even the silence is a little scary.

The Army Aviation Special Forces Brigade took advantage of this quietness, using the defender's ultra-low-altitude radar blind spot to carry out secret infiltration, and also used this quietness to make the powerful heavy third battalion retreat in fear in the silent killing.

But because of this, the head of the headquarters was very confused, and he did not sit in helicopters at home and abroad, and he had never seen a kind of noise reduction such as Zhi-2, so he turned his head to look at Lao Meng next to him.

Old Meng, called Meng Qingguo, is talking to several other leaders at this time, it seems that there is a trend of intensification, this is also no way, as a backbone who has participated in the development of the Zhi-7 and the imitation of the Zhi-8, Meng Qingguo is a rare model in the army from technology to leadership.

In this regard, Meng Qingguo's own ability is still very strong.

In fact, it is true that today's Meng Qingguo, as the deputy director of the Foreign Procurement Bureau of Equipment under the General Headquarters, specializes in the work of introducing military equipment to foreign countries, and one of the major items is helicopters.

Because of this, when several leaders of the surrounding troops asked him about his views on the Z-2 light helicopter, Meng Qingguo also said the truth, which attracted more people's attention.

Now that he was named by the head of the headquarters, Meng Qingguo immediately stood up, organized his language a little and replied loudly: "Report chief, I think the reason why the Z-2 light helicopter can have such excellent noise control is mainly due to the breakthrough of Tengfei Group in electric motors and batteries in recent years. ”

"Oh?" the head of the headquarters replied with some surprise, and then asked, "So, do you think that the power of the Z-2 light helicopter is electric instead of the traditional turboshaft engine?"

"Yes, I think so, after all, it is difficult to control the noise under the background noise of the battlefield, and it is difficult for the traditional turboshaft engine to do, plus the transmission gear set, reduction gear set, propeller hub bearing group, and the friction agitation coefficient of various mechanical structures can not be reduced at all.

What's more, in addition to electronic equipment such as radar, the defense side also has optical detection equipment such as far-infrared, but no obvious infrared signature signal was found after irradiating the Z-2 light helicopter, which further proves that this model does not use a high-temperature gas engine, but uses a lower-temperature electric motor to drive. ”

Upon hearing this, many unit leaders, including the head of the headquarters, expressed their approval, because when the Z-2 light helicopter was attacking, the infrared equipment attached to the third battalion carried out an extremely detailed reconnaissance of the surroundings, and the result was that no trace of the Z-2 light helicopter was caught, which showed that the infrared signal suppression effect of the Z-2 light helicopter was very good, and it had reached the standard of "stealth."

The head of the headquarters nodded and asked again: "Then do you think it is possible for this Z-2 light helicopter to be popularized in the army?"

Meng Qingguo's answer this time was even more categorical: "No!"
