Chapter 1726: The Meaning Behind It
The meaning behind Chapter 1726
Could it be that this ship can really take off and land planes? The faces of Wang Qiang and the other military representatives suddenly turned very bad
It's not because the ship can take off and land planes, but because this kid has expressed too many meanings through this action: without the help of the state, the Alice Group has broken through the major problem of the aircraft carrier's glide jump and takeoff by itself in a short period of time
Although the military and government departments have been paying attention to the actions here, but because the "aircraft carrier" built by the Alice Group for Ellison has never been tested flight, everyone instinctively believes that this ship is absolutely impossible to take off and land aircraft, although it does have a flight deck, and from the size parameters of the flight deck, it is also easy to take off and land aircraft, but they never think that the Alice Group will lay hundreds of thousands of dollars per ton of special aircraft carrier deck steel on it. Everyone believes that the ability to take off and land ordinary helicopters on this ship is absolutely there, but taking off and landing fixed-wing supersonic aircraft? No one thinks it really can. But now it seems that this move of the Alice Group is very likely to be a heavy slap in the face
However, compared with several generals in China, Ellison and his friends are undoubtedly much more excited, although now they basically have no doubts about the strength of the Alice Group, but for the take-off and landing of fixed-wing aircraft on this ship, everyone is still a little drummed.
The Americans are more straightforward, and in their perceptions, no matter how fanciful you say, I respectfully reserve my personal opinion until I see it with my own eyes -- Ellison and the others have not yet done the final delivery and sign-off procedures, and the reason is this, they have not yet seen the fixed-wing aircraft take off and land on the "Albers Princess".
After Zhang Lan's words, under the command of the staff on the ship, everyone slowly pushed to the safe area, with all kinds of complicated and complicated feelings, watching the staff wearing red, yellow, green and other colored vests, with huge headphones on their ears, and holding various command tools in their hands from time to time making various gestures, directing the four planes to do all kinds of actions that they could not understand, and watching the four fixed-wing single-engine fighters similar to the MiG-21 parked on the deck slowly warming up. Slowly move to the take-off site and make the final preparations before take-off......
The general of the air force had a very good look at him, and when the four planes slowly turned around the fuselage, he immediately discovered the difference between these four planes and the domestic Jian-7 fighters; although from the main body of the planes, these four planes could still see the strong MiG-21 factor, but there was no doubt that these four planes were not comparable to the MiG-21, at least in terms of maneuverability in the air. The wing area is larger than that of the J-7 fighter, the full-motion canard wing in front of the wing, and the air intake channels that are changed from the head to the rib air intake on both sides of the fuselage.
If you take a closer look, you can also see that these two air intakes are not ordinary air intakes on both sides of the fuselage, and the two bulges on the side of the fuselage immediately made the general think of a term that represents performance: DSI air intake
After the removal of the head intake, the ugly head was covered by a delicate radar fairing, which was also very special in design compared to the round nose of an ordinary aircraft, not a standard conical shape, but a slightly flattened shape similar to a duckbill.
The fuselage has also been changed from the "patches" made of rivets on the MiG-21/Jian-7 fighter, and the delicate paint paint makes the whole plane look extremely exquisite; on the whole, although the prototype of this aircraft is a MiG-21/Jian-7 fighter, in the general's view, the technical content of these four planes has been separated from the category of MiG-21 and has become a brand-new fighter.
Don't think that it is so simple to redesign with an aircraft as a prototype, the Jian-8 is just a double-issued version of the MiG-21, but as a result, how long did it take in China from the beginning of the project to the final equipment of the troops?
Looking at this strange plane that has undergone huge changes in appearance and does not have any weapon plug-in system at all, the general's heart can't help but feel bitter: there has been no successful technology in China for so many years, but I didn't expect that the Alice Group would only take such a short time to get it done.
In fact...... In many cases, it is not a technical problem, but a problem that is not paid attention to above, a very simple problem, which is not paid enough attention to above, and it also takes a huge amount of time; However, if the above attaches importance to it, many complex and difficult problems can also be solved in a very short period of time, is this how the atomic bomb and hydrogen bomb, intercontinental ballistic missile, and ballistic missile nuclear submarine were engaged in in those years? ,
"Boom" In the midst of everyone's joy and heavy heart, the first two planes of the four planes actually released their brakes at the same time after forming a long wingman formation one after the other
It turned out to be a two-plane formation
"Damn two-plane formation take-off" The general behind him also scolded in a low voice, not knowing what he was scolding.
"God, how is that possible," exclaimed an old man from Russia.
This guy is the martial arts hall of the Russian Embassy in China, as a special guest, he naturally wants to visit the delivery ceremony of the Alice Group's "Princess Albers", in the eyes of Lao Maozi, this is an excellent opportunity to peek into the shipbuilding capabilities of the Alice Group.
But in the eyes of Lao Maozi, the two-plane formation of the "Princess Albers" took off, which is absolutely incredible, as the only country in the world that carries forward the traditional glide take-off, the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier of Lao Maozi has carried forward the glide take-off to the extreme, and the aircraft carriers represented by the United Kingdom, Italy, India, Spain and Brazil are still using the glide take-off mode, because the take-off capacity is limited, the carrier-based aircraft are generally just using the British's **-8B "Harrier" vertical/ Light and medium fighters such as skill take-off and landing fighters or the Frenchman's Rafale fighters are not at all on the same level as the Su-33 and Su-33K heavy carrier-based fighters used by the Russians.
But even so, the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier can only take off one plane at a time, and the Russians certainly know the benefits of taking off two fighters at a time, but no matter what they try, there is no way to take off two at the same time, but the Alice Group's "Albers Princess" takes off and lands two fighters at a time - although it is only light - to the old Maozi is greatly shocked
It was only then that some people noticed the difference between the glide take-off deck on the "Princess Albers" and the ordinary glide take-off deck: although it was a little unbelievable, it was indeed much wider than the glide deck of the "Kuznetsov aircraft carrier", and although it was somewhat reluctant to take off two carrier-based planes such as the Su-33 heavy fighters at the same time, there was still no problem in letting two light fighters of the size of the MiG-21 take off at the same time in a long wingman formation one after the other.
"God" Wesley. Clark exclaimed in the same way.
As a four-star general on the U.S. side -- albeit retired -- Wesley. Clark understands the meaning behind the ability of the "Princess Albers" and said unceremoniously that the ability of the "Princess Albers" is, to a certain extent, almost the same as the United States "Nimitz"-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and the word Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers take off and land just two planes, although the take-off and landing frequency of the Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers is higher than that of the aircraft carriers that use traditional glide jumps, but in fact, the difference is not very large.
The generals of the domestic military have mixed feelings in their hearts. Just because they didn't say anything didn't mean they didn't understand the implications of the move.
Only Zhang Lan watched with a smile at the two planes that were speeding away from the deck with a smile on his face, and the smile on his face seemed to be a complete embodiment of confidence in the eyes of those who were secretly watching Zhang Lan's movements.
The two planes quickly climbed to the top of the glide deck, and after leaving the deck and taking off, it seemed that the plane's speed was not enough, and the fuselage sank slightly, as if it was about to crash into the sea. There was a whole exclamation from the crowd
However, the expressions of those military representatives have not changed, and they who have been dealing with military equipment for a long time naturally know that this situation is very normal, not to mention the aircraft that takes off by sliding jump, even if it is an aircraft that takes off by steam catapult, there is a slight sinking at the moment it leaves the deck, but the amplitude of the sinking of the steam catapult plane is smaller than that of the plane that takes off by sliding jump.
Just when everyone let out an exclamation and thought that these two planes were about to crash into the sea, the two planes that had just fallen suddenly rose up and quickly climbed into the sky
"Papapa......" There was a round of applause from the crowd. At this time, how could everyone not understand that this take-off was actually unusually perfect?
With the applause of everyone, the two planes behind also took off in a double formation, and the cheers in the crowd rose to a new level
After takeoff, it seemed to everyone that the rest of the landing process was naturally very simple. ,
Compared with the cheering crowd, the officers who came to watch the salute from all over the world did not have much cheering on their faces, and compared with those who watched the excitement, they understood better that in fact, it was not very difficult to fly from the deck, and for carrier-based aircraft, what was really difficult was actually the process of landing.
Take-off is actually very simple, as long as you follow the prescribed procedures to do it, basically there is no unsuccessful, and the take-off action is actually a very "safe" job; But landing is not the same thing, not only the management of the approaching aircraft is more troublesome, but also depends on the pilot's landing technical level.
When the aircraft approaching and preparing to land lands on the deck at a speed of nearly 300 kilometers per hour, there are strict requirements and restrictions on the flight altitude, flight speed, and approach angle of the aircraft, and what is even worse is that the aircraft carrier floating on the sea is actually shaking slightly, which may be almost unfelt by the staff on the deck, but for the aircraft entering the field at a speed of about 300 kilometers per hour, this slight shaking is simply fatal
With such a high flight speed, it is so easy for the aircraft to accurately align and hook the steel cable on the ship?
Of course, among the people present, no one who really understood really regarded this take-off and landing as an ordinary take-off and landing performance, in their eyes, it was more about observing the real level of Alice Group in this way.
Since there are still so many people watching below, it is naturally impossible for the plane that has just taken off to fly too far, and after circling around the "Princess Albers" for a few times, the two planes that took off first just now slowly flew back to the landing area at the tail of the plane and began to prepare for landing.
At the same time, everyone also clearly saw that the expressions of the staff in the landing area of the "Princess Albers" aircraft were obviously much more serious, one by one, as if they were facing a great enemy, their expressions were tense, and they did not dare to be careless to be affected by these staff, and the cheers of the people watching the take-off and landing performance couldn't help but be much smaller, although they didn't know these things very well, but through the serious expressions on the faces of these staff, they also knew that the landing technology content was very high, of course, the danger and the great
Thinking about it, of course, the airplane airport on land, such a wide landing strip, sometimes there is a possibility of accidents, and the narrow landing area on the "Albers Princess" is not low
Affected by the increasingly serious atmosphere on the ship, everyone held their breath and stared, and they didn't even dare to take a breath
It's closer, it's closer
The plane in the sky, which was painted as military gray, slowly changed from a small bird to the size of an eagle, then to the size of a golden eagle, and then became larger and larger
At the same time, in the landing area on the flight deck, four halves had already been prepared, and in front of the halline, there was a huge net like a large fishing net that was planted up, and I don't know what it was used for.
In the crowd, a person with a little military knowledge couldn't help but proudly explain to the person next to him, with a naked show off in his tone, "As long as the plane can accurately hook one of the four speed lines, it can stop accurately; If one landing is unsuccessful, you can fly back and land again, as for the net," the ostentatious man pointed to the net, "This is called a blocking net, and it is for those planes that have landed on the deck, but have not hooked the barrage and have no way to take off again, which is a last resort to use insurance." ”
"Oh, you know a lot about my brother, I didn't expect there to be so many doorways for the plane to land, this is a long insight for a brother today." The crowd responded with one voice, and the people who heard it were very modest, they didn't expect that just a small plane landed, and there were so many words.
"Hehe, you're welcome, you're welcome." The person who was complimented looked triumphant, but he still had to make a modest appearance.
It's up to you to land. Wesley. Clarke's face was solemn: if these people trained by the Alice Group can do a good job when they land...... Wesley. Clark shuddered suddenly, if the landing can be done perfectly, it will definitely not be good news for the United States. ,
It depends on the landing below. At the same time, Lao Maozi's military attaché in China, the military attache of the French embassy in China, and the military attache of the British embassy in China...... There were even representatives of the domestic military who were present, all with wide eyes, staring at the plane that seemed to be about to make contact with the deck: success or failure, in one move
Everyone knew in their hearts that if these four planes could easily land on the deck, then the government of their own country would have to revise their attitude and policy towards cooperation with Alice Group.
"Tong~~" A dull sound sounded, followed by a piercing "squeak~~" tire grounding sound, accompanied by these two sounds, a burst of eye-catching white smoke came out of the tires of the aircraft, and then a pungent tire burnt smell wafted in the air...... Fortunately, when this burnt smell wafted in front of everyone, the eyes of this burnt smell were almost gone, and it was not unbearable.
It worked? Those who understand the stakes suddenly feel that their eyelids are jumping
Although they already knew in advance that it was unlikely that the take-off and landing performance would be messed up, and the Alice Group didn't know how much effort it took to make this performance, when the performance was really successful, those in the crowd with all kinds of thoughts couldn't help but suddenly feel a sudden burst in their hearts: this is really not good news for their own country
Ordinary people can't care so much in their hearts, after seeing the successful landing of the first plane, they suddenly slapped wildly, especially the domestic people, and even slapped their own slaps red and didn't notice it, many people even burst into tears with excitement on their faces, and roared unconsciously with excitement.
The people on the deck, whether they are high-status or low-status, whether they are businessmen or officials, only feel that there is something in their chest tightly blocked at the moment, and they have an emotion in their hearts that they want to vent crazy, and now, the best way to vent is to applaud wildly, shout crazy, cry crazy, it seems that only in this way can they vent the stirring emotions in their hearts
At this moment, some businessmen, regardless of officials, are proud of their country in their hearts
In their eyes, things are actually very simple, not only because they saw a take-off and landing performance of an aircraft carrier with their own eyes, but also because they also saw the hope of their country's rise In the eyes of many people, Alice Group has it, which means that in the near future, the country will also have
