In southeastern Somalia, just 70 kilometres from the naval headquarters Kiyanboni, a 3,000-ton cargo ship is heading south using an automated control system. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

On the starboard side of the bow, a black skull pattern is drawn, which looks so mysterious and terrifying.

It's two o'clock in the afternoon local time, and in the offshore waters in broad daylight, pirates dare to appear in a grand manner? Or a 'ghost ship'?

At this moment, on the outer side of the primeval forest of the Camel Hill in Lower Juba County, Somalia, the first Somali air base was established here.

On the runway, which is more than two kilometers long, a light blue Su-27SS fighter is making final preparations for takeoff. From a distance, a particularly large missile was mounted under the belly of the fighter, while the other weapon pylons of the fighter were empty.

At the command of the conning tower, the Su-27SS fighter began to accelerate towards the end of the runway, and soon rose into the sky.

As soon as the Su-27 fighter flew out of the mainland and into the sea, the pilot pressed the launch button towards the target that had long been locked by the radar, and the silver-gray missile under the belly broke away from the plane, and the tail ramjet engine began to work, spewing out a crimson tail flame.

At this time, the missile was still 70 kilometers away from the target, the height of the missile had already dropped to 20 meters above sea level, and the speed of the missile quickly accelerated to more than Mach 2 under the impetus of the engine.

At this moment, at the Camel Hill Air Base, on a huge electronic screen in the combat information center, the simulated signal is showing the missile flying low over the sea level to the target, the target ship sprayed with skull patterns.

"Bang ......" When the moment the missile hit the target ship was heard on the electronic screen, the people in the hall applauded happily.

This seems to be an ordinary air-to-ship missile experiment, but it represents an extraordinary significance, because the missile just launched from the Su-27 fighter is an air-launched model developed by Xingchen Group based on the information provided by the Ukrainian military on the 3M-80, that is, the basic type of the 'Yue Zhi missile', which is internally named the 'Kingfisher' air-to-ship missile. Different from the air-launched diffractive Kh-41 air-to-ship missile developed by Russia on the basis of the "Yue Xi missile", the "Kingfisher" missile uses a stealth shape and optimizes the ramjet engine, which reduces the volume of the engine and the warhead charge without reducing the engine power.

Brigadier General Assad, deputy commander of the Air Force, and Rear Admiral Gedi, commander of the Navy, came side by side in an office.

"Congratulations, the Air Force's combat strike capability has once again been effectively enhanced." Major General Gedi looked at Assad and said in a somewhat sour tone.

I believe that no member of the Navy wants to see the development of air-to-ship missiles, because that is a mortal threat to the Navy. But the two belong to the same camp, the reason why Rear Admiral Gedi is sour is naturally because he envies Li Mo's strong support for the Air Force, on the other hand, the navy belongs to the kind raised by the queen.

"Haha, I said Commander Gedi, don't be jealous, didn't your navy order two frigates in Huaxia? That's money snatched from the mouth of our Air Force. Deputy Commander Assad not only did not comfort the other party, but said with some pride.

Rear Admiral Gedi was speechless, as for the source of funds for the navy's order of frigates, of course he knew that if it weren't for his tireless nagging in Li Mo's ear, where would there be any opportunity to increase the strength of the navy.

"By the way, General Assad, what do you think of Operation Peaceful Lightning?" Major General Gedi didn't bother to bother with this matter, because he felt that it was useless to calculate, but made the other party more proud. So Major General Gedi changed the subject.

Hearing this, Assad had a solemn look on his face, and he couldn't help but look around, as if he was afraid of being heard.

"Didn't you attend that meeting? Why do you ask me? Assad asked suspiciously.

Major General Gedi took a sip of coffee and explained slowly, "I still have some objections to this operation in my heart, but you know that since the commander has ordered everyone to make a sound plan, he must have made a decision in his heart. ”

Assad raised his eyebrows, and looked at the naval commander in front of him for a while, he somewhat understood why this guy mentioned this matter in front of him, you know, the 'peaceful lightning operation' is still on paper, and there are no more than ten people who know about this operation.

Major General Gedi had objections to the action, but it was inconvenient and did not dare to raise it directly to Li Mo, so he had to nag a few words to Assad in a roundabout way.

"Commander Gedi, do you think this plan is inappropriate?" Assad asked in a deep voice.

Major General Gedi hesitated and said softly, "I feel that the commander has now bred some hegemonic mentality. ”

Assad was stunned for a moment, shook his head and laughed, "I said that Your Excellency the Commander of the Navy, you are a soldier, not a peacemaker, what hegemonism is not hegemonism, I only know that whoever has the biggest fist in this world is the truth." Moreover, our starting point is different from that of the United States, which is to plunder other people's things and consolidate its superpower status, while we are only trying to gain a foothold. ”

"Also, I didn't hear what you just said, okay, the missile test was successful, I'm leaving, and the Air Force still has a lot to deal with."

…… In the office of the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Ministry of Defense in Mogadishu, Li Mo listened to the report of the Deputy Commander of the Air Force Assad with a smile.

At present, several important classified programs are well underway, and the earlier 'tactical transport plane' program, with the participation of Iran and North Korea, has reached its final stage, and soon Somalia can form its own transport aircraft force, at that time, the Somali army's capabilities in long-range delivery, airborne and logistical supply will be further enhanced.

The soldiers who have received training in the airborne forces in China are also studying very well, after all, they all have a foundation, but they are not very familiar with the airborne aspect.

What Li Mo values the most is that the 'Strategic Air Force' plan has passed the first stage of preparation and has officially entered the second stage of rapid development. Because of the MiG-25-based 'verification plane,' the reserve pilots of the 'Strategic Air Force' who are undergoing rigorous training will be able to speed up the process of learning and training through actual work. A group of highly qualified pilots have passed the adaptation stage and are now undergoing more in-depth training.

According to the current pace, it is not a problem to come up with a verification plane early next year, if there are not too many accidents, before the second half of next year, Somalia's 'strategic air force' will be secretly formed, and at that time, it is time for Li Mo to eliminate the sense of urgency in his heart.

The energy that erupts from a state apparatus is amazing, especially when the state apparatus is used to serve something, all kinds of resources are continuously supplied, all kinds of materials and logistics are 100% guaranteed, what else can't be done?

Just like the 'Space Fighter' plan, Li Mo is now desperately serving this plan. He just needs to equip the army in the shortest possible time.

"Boss, there's something I want to tell you about." Deputy Commander Assad said after a report on his work.

"Oh? When else did you get rid of you, the lieutenant commander? Li Mo asked in surprise.

When Deputy Commander Assad heard Li Mo's ridiculous words, his face turned slightly red. He laughed dryly and explained, "That's right, boss, recently the pilots of the 'Strategic Air Force' mentioned a problem when they were training, that is, the problem of maneuvering overload. At present, the physiological overload of human beings is generally about 6-8g, and specially trained pilots can reach 9g or even 10g, although in this process pilots will also have a temporary loss of consciousness in the dark eyes, and only a dozen seconds, but for the maximum overload of modern fighters 9g, this number is completely sufficient. And our 'MiG-25' demonstrator has a maximum maneuverable overload of 14G after modification, and we can expect that the new 'Space Fighter' will have a larger value, possibly more than 20G, which is about the same as the value of some missiles. In this way, due to the limitation of human physiological overload, the excellent maneuverability of the aircraft cannot be fully exerted. ”

The so-called maneuvering overload is the maximum acceleration that the body structure of the aircraft can withstand when doing various high-speed and violent maneuvers during high-speed flight. The reason why many modern aircraft are marked with an overload of about 9g is because the limit of human physiology is around this value. And the missile, which no one can do it, can reach an acceleration of tens of g. This is also one of the reasons why missiles are capable of hitting aircraft.

It is not impossible for modern aircraft to increase this value, but correspondingly, it is necessary to increase the weight of the aircraft, which is certainly not cost-effective, and the pilot's physiological endurance is not up to the requirements.

And Assad was thinking that if the 'space fighter' could ignore this problem and find a way to solve the pilot's physiological overload limit, it would be too helpful for the fighter to maneuver in close combat. For example, when evading the opponent's missiles, you can do some difficult maneuvers without worrying that the plane will stop in the air or the pilot will die due to cerebral hypoxia.

At present, the main way to solve this problem in various countries is to wear anti-load clothing, through the anti-load clothing to compress the pilot's lower body and other parts, to promote blood flow to the brain and eyes and other places, but the anti-load clothing also has certain limitations, with the current technology can solve the acceleration of 1-2g is commendable.

The reason why Assad brought up this question was because he found that Li Mo's 'full-time guard', the physical fitness of each member of the Meteor Commando Team was extremely perverted, and he wondered if Li Mo had any special training methods to solve this problem.
