Chapter 104, How the Air Force Was Made

The Russians moved much faster than expected, first of all, the production chain of anti-aircraft missiles, all the technical equipment arrived in Basra a week later, and Canglong had already begun to plan the underground missile production base before that, so after the technical equipment was in place, the next step was production.

And Canglong's goal is to produce 1,000 sets of S-300 anti-aircraft missile radar vehicles, although this is a project like a Great Wall, but as long as the technology is in place, it is not impossible.

Half a month later, all the parts of the five MiG-29 and five Su-30 were also transported to the base, and under the busyness of Russian technicians and workers, the assembly of the aircraft took about five days, and ten planes were neatly arranged in the hangar of the base.

However, they still lacked pilots, although before this, Canglong had ordered to look for former Iraqi pilots at the original Basra Air Base, but they only found three people, and among these three people, two of them were unwilling to join the Air Force, and Bai Wuchang, as the supreme commander of the Air Force, did not force them.

This is not because he is very democratic, on the contrary, if these two pilots who are unwilling to join are really excellent, he will definitely try his best, even if he is forced to force them to join, the biggest reason is because Bai Wuchang's performance of their lack of confidence is too disappointing, and their flight time is probably not as good as the air force of the security forces.

This has no outstanding ability, and second, he has no self-confidence, he really wants to fight and send them up, Bai Wuchang is still afraid that they will waste the only planes they have, after all, these are all planes that Canglong spent his blood to buy, and it is a waste to pilot them.

Bai Wuchang and Aziz are already two people for twenty people, and they don't hesitate to train their own pilots day and night, but are pilots really so easy to train? The answer is no, although they have airplanes, they do not have trainers, let alone simulators.

The first requirement for a pilot is physical fitness, with mutilated limbs or obvious deformities in the body, a history of craniotomy, thoracotomy and head trauma and coma, frequent low back and leg pain or a history of fractures within a year, chronic gastrointestinal diseases or infectious hepatitis after the age of 7.

Those with a history of food and drug allergies, those who do not eat pig, beef, mutton, have suffered from meningitis, encephalitis, nephritis, tuberculosis or have asthma and frequent cough. People who often have headaches, dizziness, and insomnia. Those who have mental illness, epilepsy or a history of fainting in their family and themselves. Those who stutter, have sleepwalking or bedwetting after the age of 13.

deafness, frequent tinnitus or pus in the ear, nausea and vomiting on a car or boat; Those who have lost more than 3 teeth or have obvious poor occlusion; Those with significant strabismus; Learners who usually wear glasses and those who are night blind, etc.

Another point, if you have tattoos or obvious scars on your body, if you have any of the above conditions, sorry for all of them.

Is flight recruitment really so strict? Hey, it's really that strict, this is not only for the safety of the pilots themselves, the biggest reason is because they are flying supersonic fighters, which is likely to cause discomfort at high air pressure, once this problem occurs, the result is definitely the end of the plane crash, and it may even cause damage to people on the ground.

And the above conditions are only the conditions for the physical examination of pilots, and there are all kinds of difficulties waiting for them behind, so whoever wants to be a pilot must weigh it first.

Not to mention in Basra, the probability of being found in this condition in China is actually not high, so the preciousness of pilots can be imagined.

Where are the people of Basra, who have experienced war for many years, how many qualified? Out of a population of two million, Bai Wuchang found ten who barely passed, and if these ten were according to the standards of the Chinese Air Force, they could be directly rolled up.

People are recruited, but it is difficult to train, from the formation of a flight squad to a flight squadron, these ten people have been trained for no less than three months, and they have not yet passed the cultural knowledge, let alone get them on the plane to fly, and most of the pilots of the modern air force have equipment to simulate the air environment.

To become a real pilot, you first have to spend a year and a half in these simulated aerial environments, and you can see the plane, but you will never touch the plane.

Wait for the simulation environment to be qualified, and then officially start training, as for those who are unqualified, directly roll up and cover the eggs.

Can I become a pilot if I pass the simulated environment training? The answer is still no, of course, now you can touch the plane, but in the next few years of training, you are only worthy of the co-pilot of the training aircraft, this is the importance of the training aircraft, a small soldier who has passed the simulation environment, it is impossible to fly the plane for the first time, unless you are really a genius among geniuses.

Of course, even if you are, your instructor won't treat you for the day unless he wants you to.

Of course, there is also the possibility that flying that kind of small civilian aircraft, instead of a real fighter, has passed several years of training, and after various assessments, when you actually sit in the pilot seat of the training aircraft, you have a qualification to become a pilot, and then there will be a series of assessments, the most important of which is political censorship, which is not much to explain, you know.

If you pass, you're eligible to become a pilot, but if you don't pass? I'm sorry, roll up and get out, even if you are excellent, as long as your instructor says that you are not qualified, you will never show any mercy when you roll up and cover the roll.

If all of the above you have passed, you have actually flown on the fighter jet, congratulations, you have finally achieved your dream and you are a real pilot.

However, the next thing you will face is endless training in training, although the food is very good, but you have to repeat your training work every day, just like driving a bus, pilots in peacetime are like this, no longer waiting for you to change jobs, you can go to be a captain in civil aviation, the work must be assigned in a package, but the premise is that the army is willing to let you go, not let you go, then congratulations, honestly serve the country.

For Bai Wuchang, he is now poor and white, in addition to his cultural skills, his difficulty is that he has no simulation equipment, let alone a trainer aircraft, and most of the current fighters are single-seater, and there are very few two-seat fighters, most of which are training aircraft or heavy bombers.

Xiami's missile troops can use live ammunition exercises, and Bai Wuchang's armored troops and artillery can also drive here and there without anything, and hit a target or something if the idle egg hurts, but Bai Wuchang's air force can't use this method, otherwise even if Canglong doesn't strangle him, he will strangle himself, there are few planes, they are very precious, and there are so many pilots, he can't afford to lose any of them.

At the critical moment, Aziz gave him an idea: "If we continue to train like this, let alone three months to form combat effectiveness, even if we can't form combat effectiveness in three years, the air force will be a decoration at that time." ”

Of course, Bai Wuchang was also aware of this problem, but said helplessly: "Do you have any good ideas?" ”

Bai Wuchang thought of an idea before, that is, to send pilots to China or Russia for training, and the things on other people's side are ready-made, but this was directly vetoed by Canglong, it's very simple, not to mention that it costs money to get past training, and secondly, if he is brainwashed by others, doesn't he lose his wife and soldiers?

After this plan was rejected, Bai Wuchang had no idea at all, and Aziz suddenly ran over to complain, which was reasonable, but what he didn't expect was that Aziz gave him a surprise, only to see Aziz smile and say: "We don't have pilots, but the security forces do, and I know very well the current situation of the Baghdad Air Base." ”

Bai Wuchang's eyes lit up: "Can you turn your peers against you?" ”

"Of course, they are all former Iraqi Air Force people, I thought that the Americans were coming, and we had a good life, but I didn't expect it" Speaking of this, Aziz gritted his teeth, obviously this was one of the reasons for his departure, "I'm sure that since I left, their life has become more and more difficult." ”

Bai Wuchang thought in his heart, yes, the Americans didn't plan to train any air force for Iraq, that is, just to make a show, after all, they want to strike a balance, Aziz, the only face project that can fly the F16, has run away, and the pilots in Baghdad are certainly having a hard time.

"How sure are you?" Bai Wuchang asked.

"If nothing else, I'm ninety percent." Aziz is confident.

But Bai Wuchang frowned, although the pilots in Baghdad are not treated well by the Americans, why do they want to come to your side and work for you? For the sake of the country? But Basra is not a country, it still has the name of a province, and the most important thing is that Canglong has no money, and the rebels must have money, now they have no money, two have no future, three have no reputation, what do they want, Bai Wuchang can hardly imagine that the person opposite will be reversed by Azizze.

So Bai Wuchang said his reasons, but Aziz smiled and said: "First promise a high price, deceive them, and wait for them to come."

Bai Wuchang was stunned for a moment, looked at Aziz and smiled: "You kid is more insidious than me." ”

"Didn't you fool me like that?" Aziz asked rhetorically, "Not to mention that I believe in the future of Basra, and I believe that the Prophet can lead us to strength, and the hardships are only temporary." ”

Bai Wuchang was touched by his last words, from Aziz's words, he felt the positive effect of Canglong doing all this, at least now the whole of Basra gave people a prosperous prospect, everyone put their hopes on him, although Bai Wuchang thought, in fact, this has no future at all.

Nonsense, against a superpower, can there be a future? After discussing, Bai Wuchang made a decision, then do it, Xiance said in turn, but before again, he still had to report to Canglong, without Canglong's support, he couldn't contact these former Iraqi Air Force pilots at all.

So he reported the plan, originally thinking that Canglong would stop it, but he didn't expect Canglong to be happy: "What, why don't you do something that can make Natasha jump to her feet?" Let Su Su fully cooperate with you, and you can rebel as much as you can. ”
