"Do you think that flying at sea is the most dangerous thing in this war, the sky is above and the sea is below, and the helicopter is suspended in mid-air and does not even have a landing point, in case of a malfunction, it will directly become the rhythm of a large scale sinking to the bottom of the sea!"

Chen Xu is the captain of the steppe wolf squadron, he has the right to talk on the whole channel, he feels that after the group enters the sea flight, all the pilots have closed their mouths, and the whole channel is extremely quiet, except for the sound of the propellers rumbling and stirring the air outside. In order to alleviate everyone's nervousness www.biquge.info Chen Xu told a cold joke on the radio.

"Mr. Chen, can we say something auspicious? I've got 50 soldiers behind me! A detachment leader of the Chinook transport fleet shouted in the channel.

"Grass! I wanted to be a little lazy and let go of the joystick, but I didn't dare at all. I'm a landlubber, and I'm heavier than a scale. "Captain Di Chen, who was at the front of the Apache helicopter gunship, complained in the channel.

Di Chen is the most skilled helicopter pilot in Army Airlines, and he has an incredible affinity for machinery, and any machine in his hands is more skilled than an old driver who has been flying it for decades.

At a young age, he dared to steal the cooperative's truck and drag on the muddy road, and secretly drove his friends to the city to play. Later, he used pliers and screwdrivers to repair a Ural M72 sidecar motorcycle imported from the Soviet Union by the supply and marketing cooperative, which was aided by Lao Maozi in 1950 and took 15 years to break, and no one would repair it, so it was thrown in the barn and no one cared about it.

After this kid found this baby, he went to tinker every day after school, and the adults of the cooperative knew that Di Chen liked to toss mechanical things, and thought that this rotten motorcycle was a pile of scrap metal anyway, so he let him dismantle and wash it. Who would have thought that this kid would be able to fix it, dismantle the sidecar and turn it into a two-wheeled motorcycle, and ride it every day on the narrow dirt roads in the countryside.

This wild boy was sent to the army by his family after finishing his studies at the age of 17, and no one in the family could control him, thinking that the commander in the army could always discipline him well.

Then Di Chen's mechanical affinity is different from ordinary people, so that he has an irrepressible urge to toss any machine, eight years ago, the helicopter of the Army Aviation airlifted equipment to the regiment, this kid made a bet with the regiment commander at the cost of two packs of cigarettes, saying that he could drive the straight 5 on the tarmac into the sky!

Of course, the regiment commander didn't believe it, even a genius couldn't drive a helicopter into the sky without training, so the regiment leader gambled, and even the helicopter pilot put on a pack of cigarettes to see the kid's jokes.

The end result speaks for itself.

The soldiers of the whole regiment watched Di Chen, who had not undergone any training, drive the straight 5 into the sky, and drove higher and higher directly into the clouds without a trace.

The pilot rolled his eyes on the spot and fainted, and the regiment commander jumped around on the ground like a flea, praying that nothing would happen.

Di Chen drove the helicopter around the sky for two hours, experiencing unprecedented pleasure, until he ran out of fuel and was reluctant to land. Then he walked out of the cockpit with a smug face, was pressed to the ground by the regiment commander and beaten, and then the kid was recruited into the army aviation and began his career as a pilot.

Three years ago, Di Chen, as the best helicopter pilot, was approved to go to the United States to receive training in the piloting of American helicopter gunships.

In this surprise attack on Hanoi, Di Chen will lead an attack group composed of 24 Apaches to take the lead in entering Hanoi as the vanguard, clearing all the city's anti-aircraft fire and clearing the channel for the follow-up transport aircraft troops.

Chen Xu was extremely envious of Di Chen's affinity for machinery, and the Apache was like flying with an imperial sword in his hands, achieving the integration of man and machine, and he could make all kinds of unbelievable maneuvers in the sky.

Even Boeing, which designed the helicopter, had no idea that the Apache could perform so many complex maneuvers. Specially brought instruments and equipment to China, recorded all kinds of maneuver data made by Di Chen, and then input it into the on-board computer, so that the average pilot only needs to press a simple code on the digital button on the control board, and the on-board computer will automatically control the armed helicopter to make the corresponding maneuver.

Don't underestimate these maneuvers, when two helicopter gunships are engaged in aerial dogship, you can allow the Apache to occupy a powerful firing position and shoot down each other.

"I really envy you who drive helicopter gunships, you can also spread the control stick to play unmanned, we have dozens of lives in our hands, and we don't dare to relax at all." One of the pilots of the squadron of transport aircraft sighed in the channel.

"Don't learn from Di Chen, don't let go of the joystick when driving, in case there is a problem, the difference between minutes and seconds is the distance between life and death!" There are veteran pilots in the fleet who warn all young pilots not to be cool and adventurous, and not every pilot is as daring as Di Chen, daring to spread out his joystick and perform stunts when flying a helicopter.

"Please note that all members of the formation are still five minutes away from the coastline, please pay more attention, and the armed helicopters should pay attention to eliminating ground anti-aircraft fire and protecting the safety of Chinook!" Di Chen, who was at the forefront of the attack formation, suddenly interrupted everyone's conversation and solemnly informed everyone in the channel that the battle moment was coming!

The atmosphere in the real helicopter formation channel became solemn again, and even Chen Xu adjusted his sitting posture to allow himself to deal with the impending danger in the most comfortable posture.

In the Kuncheng Front Headquarters, the monk general walked around the command hall with his hands behind his back, looking up from time to time to look up at the real-time live broadcast of each unit on the big screen on the wall next to him, and the same picture could be seen in the integrated command center of the imperial capital!

The general was very satisfied with such a live broadcast picture, and was able to see the specific picture of the front line in real time, so that he could have a more intuitive understanding of the military orders he had issued, and even if he issued a wrong order, he could quickly change it and recover his losses.

In the last operation against Vietnam, because of the backward communications equipment, our army actually went out of shape when the order issued by the command headquarters arrived at the front-line troops, turning "pursuing by victory" into "standing by on the spot," and forcibly letting go of an opportunity to perfectly encircle and annihilate the main division of the Vietnamese army, which made the general so angry.

Therefore, the general proposed to the Southern Heavy Industry Group to establish a set of effective communication networks for the whole army that can directly reach the front-line troops. Chen Xu combined the data link technology of the US military and the video call technology to establish such a military communication network composed of communication satellites, early warning aircraft, and radar communication base stations.

The wireless individual handheld radio was sent to the combat unit at the squad level, and the platoon commander could already directly summon aerial firepower. So now the general can not only see the movements of the troops on the front line in real time in his office, but can even directly give the attack order to the troops at the battle site.

"The helicopter attack formations are all flying in the air, how did such a picture come down?" The old chief rarely put on reading glasses, looked at the dense helicopter formation on the screen, and was very curious about the angle from which the camera was filming, so he asked a young staff officer beside him.

"Report to the chief, that's the real-time footage from the high-altitude early warning plane. This AWACS aircraft is the brain of the attack formation, capable of monitoring the movement of all air targets in an airspace of 600 kilometers, and if an enemy aircraft approaches, it can quickly give defensive orders to the helicopter group below. The staff officer immediately explained to the old chief how the helicopter footage had been filmed.

"I see! I'll just say how can these more than 800 helicopters fight in unison, and there are early warning planes to direct them to act like a swarm for a long time. The old chief clapped his hands and applauded.

"Chief, you said that! This is the most advanced swarm tactic now, using aerial mechanized swarms to attack targets and seize the three-dimensional advantage of the open space! The young staff officer nodded again and again with a smile next to him, patting the old chief's ass.

"I heard that Vietnam has introduced the latest Soviet MiG-29 fighter jet, and it would be bad if the helicopter formation encountered a fighter, did we take precautions in advance?" The army has changed so rapidly in the past two years that even the old chiefs can't know everything, so it's inevitable to be worried.

"Please rest assured that fifteen minutes ago, all the runways of military airfields in Vietnam had been destroyed by our army's cruise missiles, and theoretically the Vietnamese army had no air supremacy capability. And next to the AWACS aircraft there are three groups of F14 fighters escorting, as soon as there are enemy fighters below approaching the helicopter formation, the F14 will immediately pounce to intercept it. The staff officer explained in detail to the old chief that the front-line operations command room had made very careful arrangements for the raid operation, so that he should not worry.

"Hahaha! With three F14 fighter groups escorting the escort, such air power can be regarded as an invincible existence in Asia, and it seems that I don't have to worry about the air safety of the helicopter attack group. The old chief nodded with satisfaction, the Vietnamese army, which had lost its aerial firepower, could only be beaten passively, and it was only a matter of time before the war was won.

In the distance, a golden light gradually shoots out from under the sea level, which is the sun is about to rise!

The surrounding sky seemed to suddenly open up, etc., and it became very bright in almost a matter of seconds, and the transition between night and light was only in a split second.

The blue sky and the turquoise sea form a line at the end of the line, making it difficult to tell the difference between the top and the bottom.

However, the reflection of the helicopter on the surface of the sea still makes it easy for the pilot to find the right direction, so that he can't even tell the difference between up and down.

Especially on the sea below, there were dozens of gunboats of different sizes, light cruisers followed the formation, and the whole world was dark in the night just now, and everyone didn't notice that there were ships on the sea below.

Chen Xu looked up, and it was easy to see the early warning aircraft above 10,000 meters in the air, as well as the F14 fighter group following next to him. (To be continued.) )
