In the innermost part of the workshop of the repair shop, No. 037 J-7EGG was lying quietly in the innermost, and the gray ground low visibility paint was the only one among the fighters of the Eagle Falcon Brigade, and the rest of the fighters had already been replaced with desert paint.

Early in the morning, Wu Shaoqing was waiting in the maintenance warehouse, and then saw Li Liming striding with a technical backbone of the Eagle Falcon Maintenance Brigade.

Niu Yaoyang, Cong Dawei, Miao Yu, Cao Xing and Zhang Tiezhu are almost all the backbones of the Eagle Falcon Engine, and they gathered together under the leadership of Li Liming to the maintenance plant at this time, and yesterday they arranged the No. 037 J-7EGG into the factory in advance, and what kind of medicine was sold in this gourd made Wu Shaoqing curious.

"Liming squad leader." Wu Shaoqing hurriedly greeted Li Liming and saluted.

Wu Shaoqing is a lieutenant colonel.

"Mr. Wu." Li Liming was very humble and hurriedly returned the salute.

Wu Shaoqing said hello to the others, and said in wonder, "What kind of festival is today, are you all here for the Eagle Falcon Maintenance?" ”

"The task assigned by the captain is to modify the Dongsan Turning Fighter." Li Liming was blunt and pointed to the No. 037 J-7EGG inside.

Wu Shaoqing said unexpectedly, "Modification or improvement?" This aircraft has been changed so that the manufacturer doesn't know it. ”

"Wasn't the last improvement made by the manufacturer, Mr. Wu, the captain said that this matter should be kept secret." David Cong, captain of the Eagle Falcon Brigade, said.

Wu Shaoqing said, "I understand, I was ready to receive the notice last night, you can rest assured." ”

"Mr. Wu, you have to join in, you can't do it without you." Li Liming said with a smile.

Wu Shaoqing said, "It is incumbent on him. ”

As soon as the big crew member surrounded the No. 037 J-7EGG, he began to do it, ignoring her wailing and crying, and slammed his hands on it.

The tactical modification of the No. 037 J-7EGG is a microcosm of the Eagle Brigade's preparation to meet the Big Red Eagle Division.

In accordance with the spirit of the Air Division's instructions, the Beiku Directing and Dispatching Department has made detailed regulations and requirements for this confrontation exercise, and the more obvious change is that it clearly requires the Big Red Eagle Division to be stationed in the Beiku area before launching a confrontation. The Beiku Command and Dispatch Department gave the Wushengchang station on the southwest side of the Beiku Desert to the Big Red Eagle Division.

Wushengchang Station is the headquarters of the former 73rd Division and the main station of the 102nd Regiment. After the 73rd Division was changed to an air defense base, the 102nd Regiment and the 103rd Regiment became combat units subordinate to the air defense base.

The Wushengchang Station, which is 700 kilometers away from the Beiku Combat Training Base, is the second largest air force station in the Beiku area. The middle reservoir area refers to the middle reservoir in a broad sense, while the east reservoir station and the south reservoir station refer to the north reservoir area. The province's 1.7 million square kilometers of large area is roughly divided into five regions, according to the direction of east, west, north, south, middle, the North Reservoir area is the largest area, the Central Reservoir area roughly refers to the provincial city and its surrounding cities, is the province's economic center area.

Therefore, when the officers and men are called, they usually distinguish according to the "Great Dongku Area" and "Small Dongku Area", and the names of the stations are prefixed with the name of the place, and the East Reservoir Station and the South Reservoir Station are only the customary names of the officers and men of the 101 Brigade.

The Big Red Eagle Division was stationed and settled down first, and there was a week of training preparation time, which meant that the advantage of the Eagle Falcon Brigade was very insignificant. Perhaps because of the Royal Cat Flying Regiment, the Beiku Directing and Dispatching Department reminded Li Zhan very vaguely this time that he could no longer engage in the "mouth cannon", and even if he wanted to do it, it would not be as obvious as before.

The so-called "mouth cannon" refers to the fact that the Red Army will have to suffer battle losses when talking to the Blue Army, and of course it relies on the coordination of the Command and Dispatch Department. For example, obviously a certain tactical operation was not carried out, and the Blues said that I carried it out, I carried it out in a dream, I dreamed that several fighters of your Red Army were shot down by us, and then the command and dispatch department said with a serious face, well, yes, it is true.

What is certain is that the Eagle Falcon Brigade and the Beiku Command and Dispatch Department have already aroused the common anger of the aviation units of the whole army, and there are very great opinions on those who have already participated in the confrontation and those who have not yet participated in the confrontation, and the air division has no choice but to issue specific regulations.

The meaning of the air division is more subtle - you have to keep a low profile, even if you want to cheat, you can't be blatant!

The leaders of the air division obviously knew very well that the stronger the strength of the simulated blue army troops, the more it could play a role in sharpening the troops. In the past, the Eagle Falcon Brigade used the J-7 to simulate the mature third-generation aircraft of a strong enemy, and it was natural to open a back door in theory, and now the Eagle Falcon Brigade has fully replaced the J-11B, and it is also the latest batch of J-11B.

Another major change is the form of confrontation, which is purely air-based, with the exclusion of other operational security. This means that both sides are not allowed to use weapons and equipment other than aerial vehicles, and of course the Falcon Brigade can no longer engage in a people's war like it did against the Royal Cat Flying Regiment.

Under this change, for the first time, the Red Army units were in a relatively fair position to confront the Blue Army units, and the Great Red Eagle Division could be said to have caught up with the good times.

Cheng Da, who led the team, didn't know that his former students were already preparing to "entertain" him.

Cheng Da led 12 J-10B fighters of the Big Red Eagle Division to arrive at the Zhongkuchang Station on 15 September, a week after the department's ground support detachment had been put in place, and the Zhongkudean Station did not have the ability to support the combat of the Jian-10 series fighters.

The 102nd Regiment and the 103rd Regiment are still equipped with J-7 series fighters, and when the 101st Brigade received the J-11B, the two regiments received part of the J-7E and J-7G handed over by the brother troops, and the 73rd Air Defense Base still did not completely get rid of the title of the King of Rags.

On the whole, according to the current output, it will take a long time for the Chinese Air Force to fully realize the third generation, and the needs of the naval aviation units are more urgent.

On the same day of 15 September, Li Zhan's happy event came -- the Jian-16 heavy multi-role fighter with manufacturer number 1616 landed at the Beiku combat training base. Hu Wenbing and representatives of the manufacturer arrived one day ahead of schedule to hand over to the 101st Brigade.

Li Zhan looked at the No. 1616 J-16 fighter plane parked on the tarmac with a yellow primary color, smiled and shook his lips, holding Hu Wenbing's hands and shaking them enthusiastically, "I didn't expect to be in place so soon, Representative Hu, thank you so much, thank you so much." ”

No. 1616, the first "16" represents the model J-16, and the latter "16" represents the production serial number, which means that this should be the sixteenth prototype, perhaps a production model.

Glancing at the head of the 101st Brigade of the manufacturer's representative base, Hu Wenbing had a decent smile on his face, but his words were not polite at all, "It's good to say that I found a lot of leaders to dare to dial you before the confrontation drill, this aircraft belongs to the property of the manufacturer, you kid give me a little leisure." ”

Li Zhan was also the same, and his words were also unkind under the enthusiastic smile, "Comrade Hu, are you a fool of a military representative, the army has given research and development funds, and theoretically all the achievements belong to the troops, which is the property of the air force." ”

"You're a crooked."

Fang Chenghe, who was on the side, was talking to the deputy director of the factory, and the deputy director said, "Captain Li and Representative Hu have a very good relationship, like old comrades-in-arms who haven't seen each other for many years." ”

Fang Chenghe said, "It seems that the relationship is very good, hehe." ”

The deputy director also laughed.

As everyone knows, the two who seem to be the least old comrades-in-arms, but they are indeed old comrades-in-arms, are arguing with each other.

After completing the handover procedure, Hu Wenbing and the manufacturer's people hurried back, and Li Zhanding did not move at the No. 1 tarmac, and he didn't send his old comrades.

Bao Guanhua didn't go to see him off, and looked around the No. 1616 J-16 fighter with his hands behind his back, and Li Zhan and Nie Jianfeng were excited when they followed behind. Not only them, but the officers and soldiers of Niu Yaoyang's maintenance team were also very excited except for Niu Yaoyang. Not long ago, after more than 30 years, new fighters were installed, and now even new models that have not yet been put into service have been put into test flights, indicating that the military has a great space for development in the future. Who doesn't want the army they are serving in, to put it mildly, after serving in the awesome army, they will have more confidence to go home and drink and brag about it.

Which unit are you from?

Lao Tzu's 101st Brigade.

101 Brigade, your troops are very dick!

That's a must!

Now it's time for two or two drinks.

"This plane is no different from the J-11B, it looks the same." Bao Guanhua pointed to the cockpit and said that the two-seat cockpit looked no different from the J-11BS.

Li Zhan said, "There is a big difference, the 16th is the Shen Hoy version of the Su-30, and it is a professional fighter-bomber redeveloped from the Su-27 platform. Eleven Twin is a simple facelift on the basis of Eleven. The two are completely incompatible. ”

Nie Jianfeng said, "Political commissar, this aircraft is a professional multi-role fighter with a very powerful ability to attack the ground and sea. The first batch of Su-30s we bought back then were all equipped with the 300 divisions, and so far their ground-to-sea combat capabilities are the strongest in the whole army, and the navy is not comparable to them. ”

Bao Guanhua nodded slightly, pointed to the cockpit, and said, "Go up and have a look." ”

Li Zhan hurriedly asked Niu Yaoyang to take the boarding ladder.

The modification of the No. 037 J-7EGG is still underway, but the part that Niu Yaoyang is responsible for has ended. Some time ago, the J-16 decided to come to the Beiku combat training base for a test flight, and the Eagle Falcon Brigade set up the No. 16 maintenance group, with Niu Yaoyang, a non-commissioned officer, as the team leader, and two lieutenant technical officers under him, which was very luxurious.

The maintenance crew quickly set up the boarding ladder and escorted Bao Guanhua to board and sit in the cockpit. Looking at the large color display screen and various unseen and unheard of operation interfaces, Bao Guanhua was full of emotion, and said with a long sigh, "I don't understand it at all, it's outdated." ”

Li Zhan and Nie Jianfeng stood on the boarding ladders on both sides, and the former said with a smile, "Political commissar, we were still playing with mud and sand when you were playing with the plane." ”

"You're not getting behind, you're getting ahead of the curve." Nie Jianfeng also patted his ass.

Bao Guanhua said with a smile, "At that time, the J-7 was the most advanced aircraft, and it felt like the New Year to be able to drive it, mainly dealing with the J-6." ”

Li Zhan said, "J-6 is a generation of famous prostitutes and political commissars, especially the Plath version, which is simply old and strong, and the power output linear braking has a little bit of the opening and closing of the cockpit canopy, and the sound is very stable." ”

"You're talking about cheetah cars." Bao Guanhua squinted his eyes and said.

Li Zhan let out a slightly embarrassed laugh.

Bao Guanhua waved his hand and said, "Don't comfort me, if you are outdated, you are outdated." I know that you don't like old political cadres like me, and you know that the military quality can't keep up with the development of the troops, right? ”

"No, no, commissar, we absolutely don't have it." Li Zhan hurriedly said.

Bao Guanhua waved his hand again and said, "You can look down on those who engage in political work, but you can't despise political work." Okay, let's talk about your plan, the Air Force handed over such an important actual combat test flight work to our brigade reflects the unprecedented importance attached to our brigade, and this task is no smaller than the 228 topic. ”

Since Xue Xiangdong drove to the west, Bao Guanhua has changed a lot, and he has become more and more like a military cadre.

Li Zhan said, "I discussed it with Nie Jianfeng, and we personally tested the flight. ”

"Nope." Bao Guanhua didn't think about it, and said, "You two brigade commanders can't be on the same plane. Someone else. ”

Nie Jianfeng looked at Li Zhan, and his eyes meant that if he saw it, I said that the political commissar couldn't agree.

Li Zhan hesitated for a moment and said, "Then Han Hongjun will fly to the rear cabin." ”

"Xiao Han can." Bao Guanhua nodded slightly and agreed, "Are you planning to use this plane in the confrontation exercise?" ”

Li Zhan smiled, "Political commissar, you are like a god. Yes, this plane is supernumerary, and we just happened to steal a trick to come in handy. ”

Nie Jianfeng said, "The air division has made very detailed requirements for this confrontation, and both the red and blue sides can only dispatch twelve fighters. After research, our brigade decided to replace the next Jian-11B with the No. 16 aircraft. ”

Bao Guanhua obviously did not know the specific difference between the J-16 and the J-11, Li Zhan explained, "The 16's airborne radar is very powerful and can be used as a small air command aircraft to guide the command group to fight. ”

"Oh, you're going to take the command to the sky?" Bao Guanhua understood.

"Yes."

Li Zhan subconsciously suppressed his voice and said, "Political commissar, I have made some modifications to the Dongsan Turning No. Jianqi and replaced it with the same livery as the 102nd Regiment, and I will conduct a sneak reconnaissance before the fight." ”

"It's as simple as changing the livery?" Bao Guanhua didn't believe Li Zhan's words at all.

Li Zhan smiled, "There are some others, my thoughts are like this......"

After he had given a thorough account of the plan, he said, "Commissar, if you think it's not appropriate, I'll stop the plan immediately." ”

"Is it appropriate?" Bao Guanhua hesitated.

Li Zhan's method was simply bold, but it did not violate the drill regulations put forward by the North Reservoir Guidance and Dispatch Department, but this kind of operation method was really ...... He couldn't even find the right adjectives to describe it.

Nie Jianfeng said, "There is no violation of the rules, I personally think it is worth a try." Tactics that help to defeat the opponent should be used. Besides, the Bodong Eagles are also unscrupulous when they start a war, and we have no psychological burden to do this. ”

"What does Brigadier mean?" Bao Guanhua asked.

Li Zhan blinked and said, "The brigade commander didn't say anything. ”

Bao Guanhua suddenly came to his senses, and immediately smiled, "Yes, you are the commander of the Blue Army in the confrontation drill, you can make your own decisions." ”

That's what I'm waiting for.
