Chapter 076: Crossing the city at low altitude

The J-8FR itself has aerial photography equipment, and it is more advanced than ordinary aerial photography equipment. What needs to be installed is a meteorological reconnaissance pod to collect regional wind speed and wind direction changes, including humidity and temperature and other data, so as to comprehensively analyze the meteorological conditions and change trends in the region.

The meteorological station and others instructed the technicians to complete the modification and attachment of the No. 101 J-8FR, and Li Zhan wore a summer flight suit and directly boarded the cockpit, and after the tower confirmed, he directly taxied out and took off to detect the operation of the additional pod, and at the same time to detect whether the flight performance of the fighter was affected after the meteorological reconnaissance pod was added.

Li Zhan climbed to 5,000 meters, cruised south along the coastline, and then turned left at the southernmost point of the continent and continued to fly along the coastline. When he looked into the distance to his right, he seemed to be able to see a sea of rolling clouds coming with a determined step.

Of course, he couldn't see Typhoon Marie, which was hundreds of kilometers away, it was just a psychological effect. However, the meteorological impact of super typhoons is often hundreds of kilometers in diameter, and the turbulence of fighter jets speaks for itself. It is almost impossible to send fighter planes to reconnoiter the typhoon clouds, and it may crash in the violent air flow before it can see the central cloud.

Flying north at an altitude of 500, according to the instructions of the tower, Li Zhan turned on the aerial photography system to shoot on the ground. It is also an action to detect the working status of the relevant system. When shooting a large area, you need to go up the height, and if you want to be accurate to a small area, you need to go as low as possible. Most of the tactical reconnaissance planes do detailed work, such as flying over enemy positions at low altitude and high speed to shoot.

At present, there is no data link that can connect various combat units, and the photos taken by the high-speed camera of the tactical reconnaissance plane need to wait for the fighter to land before they can be taken out for interpretation, which means that once the tactical reconnaissance plane carrying out the mission is shot down, the reconnaissance gains will be lost.

Flying further is the Gangcheng area, Li Zhan asked the tower, "Tower, please fly over the urban area at low altitude to detect the shooting effect of the reconnaissance pod on the urban area at high speed and low altitude." ”

Yu Chenglin is in the tower and is the commander.

He thought for a moment and replied, "Agreed, but be sure to pay attention to speed, altitude and heading." ”

"Understood." Li Zhan pressed the rod and continued to descend the height.

The conditions of modern warfare, including upcoming missions that are highly likely to become aerial photographs of flood-stricken areas, require fighters and pilots to have the skills to cross over and between high-rise buildings. The Second Division handed over the important task of transferring to support the aerial photography of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces to Li Zhan, which was not only a recognition of his flying skills but also a trust in him, and Li Zhan had to cheer up.

It was noon, and Li Zhan looked at the time, the time for people to take a nap.

I can't take care of much.

After approaching the city, he visually chose the flight route, adjusted the altitude and speed, and began to cross the city. The urban construction of the port city area is very good, dozens of high-rise buildings are everywhere as far as the eye can see, like a steel forest, and the oval-shaped huge deep-water harbor is glowing with turquoise.

The route he chose was to cross from east to west, the east is the new district, there are many high-rise buildings but the land is sparsely populated, after flying over the harbor, enter the western area, there are many high-rise buildings and dense, it is a route that tests the flying skills. By the time he turned to adjust the course of 210, the tower had already contacted the local air traffic control department to temporarily take over the airspace.

Helicopters are often flying in the sky above the city, and their flight altitude is not much higher than Li Zhan's current altitude, and a mid-air collision will occur if one is not careful.

"Tower, I'm ready to cross." Li Zhan reported.

Yu Chenglin replied, "Received, pay attention to the altitude, speed, and course." ”

He took the trouble to remind him of altitude, speed, and heading, but he was still worried about a collision.

"I understand." Li Zhan replied.

This time, his flight attire can be described as extremely simple, he is wearing a summer flight suit, not even an oxygen mask, a helmet is not worn, and there is no oxygen mask, but the labor protection gloves have been carried in his trouser pocket, so he put them on directly. Because it is a low-altitude flight and activities below three thousand meters, it doesn't matter whether there is an oxygen mask or not, but because of the lack of a helmet, Li Zhan feels more relaxed and freehand.

The two turbojet engines of the J-8FR burst out with powerful thrust, and a huge roar bombarded the entire urban area, and many people who were napping were woken up by a deafening loud noise. The middle-class people climbed up with tens of thousands of yuan on a mattress, rubbed their heads and walked to the huge bay window, opened the curtains and looked out; The low-yielding little white-collar workers rolled over from the bed board and ran to the window to look out, the mobile phone screen in their hands still stuck on the game page; And the vast number of working people are still staring at the scorching sun and working in the sky.

The sound of rolling thunder echoed, but nothing abrupt could be seen.

The flaps of the No. 101 J-8FR are oblique downward, flying at an infinitely close to the minimum speed at a height of nearly fifty meters above the ground, flanked by high-rise buildings with a building height of more than 100 meters. Office buildings, residential buildings, and commercial complexes abound.

There is a fast hand, the mobile phone camera function is turned on to aim and shoot continuously, but limited by the mobile phone pixels in 2009, the photo is relatively blurry, but the distance is too close, and I still vaguely see the handsome side face of the pilot in the cockpit.

Although it is already the minimum flight speed of J-8FR, the speed of nearly 300 kilometers per hour is still an unattainable speed for people, especially in the close range of high-rise buildings, only to feel that a plane flashes in front of them, with a huge whistling sound, and only smaller and smaller shadows can be seen after a while.

In just four or five minutes, Li Zhan had successfully crossed the Gangcheng area, crossing the harbor from east to west, with a total length of about 20 kilometers, and crossing the entire urban area. The area of Hong Kong City is very large, with a permanent population of more than 6 million, which is more than many first-tier cities. This is also the purpose of why Li Zhan asked to use the Gangcheng urban area for training when the window time is so tight.

There is no way forward for Gui Province this time, and it is certain that he will not want to return to his home field until the flood situation stabilizes, so he will not have the opportunity to do such training again. Yu Chenglin also took this into account and agreed to his request under the current circumstances.

A strong side wind suddenly blew, and the fuselage of the J-8FR, which was at an altitude of height, shook violently, and Li Zhan called the tower, "Tower, I'm going back." ”

"Roger, let's land." Yu Chenglin replied.

Li Zhan no longer continued to ascend to the altitude, and galloped directly towards the airport at an altitude of 100 meters, and after confirming that the landing gear was successfully lowered, he directly entered the landing route, and his skillful landing action was simply floating on water. The parachute was released, providing powerful countermeasure energy, but despite this, the J-8FR taxied for more than 600 meters before slowing down enough to leave the runway.

It's all delta wings, and the seventh and eighth masters don't say anyone, let alone compare the SU-27, which can achieve the general landing speed of a large aircraft.

Nervous overhaul, Lou Yiwang personally went into battle, repeated several times, and then filled aviation fuel to install a parachute, and then once again a comprehensive inspection. The work of the maintenance is intense and busy. When Li Zhan received the official transfer order, no one knew except the division commander and related personnel, including the other officers and soldiers of the Nighthawk Squadron.

However, Huang Xiaoyue was well-informed, and when she rushed over to say a few words to Li Zhan, she saw Li Zhan's No. 101 landline taking off on the runway and transferring to Longchengchang Station in Gui Province.

She could only stomp her feet and scold: "Hey, this kid is very fast, I'll settle accounts with you when you come back." ”
