Are the officers and soldiers of the Eagle Falcon Brigade convinced, they are not convinced, but the captain said that if they want to be convinced, they must be convinced. Li Zhan is using his prestige to suppress and promote the transformation of the Eagle Falcon Brigade's future confrontation drills.

This is leaving, and I always feel that it is not in place here, and I am not in place there, so I think that before leaving, I will do everything that can be done and everything that can be arranged. In Li Zhan's mind, the Eagle Falcon Brigade is his own son, and it is the result of his two years of hard work, and his first achievement since joining the Chinese Air Force Aviation Unit, he naturally hopes that its future will be better and better.

People will go, and their deeds are good!

The 101st Brigade and the Beiku Air Defense Base have given this young legendary flight captain great support, and it can even be said that it is unconditional support - as long as Li Zhan wants to resolutely support it, as long as Li Zhan resolutely does not do it.

In the subjective understanding of many officers and men of the 101 Brigade, without Li Zhan, the 101 Brigade would not have existed today, and even the Beiku Combat Training Base would not have existed. Officers and men at the grassroots level may not understand very advanced theories and policies, but they are a wave of people who face the facts head-on and are most sensitive to changes in the status quo.

What everyone can see is that since Li Zhan developed the low-altitude penetration attack subject, the 101st Regiment has embarked on the road of rapid development, and has become the first regiment to be transformed into a brigade in the air force, which has also led to the development of the Beikuchang Station, and has become a full-scale combat training base in one step, which in turn has affected the birth of the Beiku Air Defense Base.

Some people may say that he is just a team leader, as for influencing the development of the entire army, and also affecting the establishment of the Beiku air defense base, is this too exaggerated?

It is very obvious that this is an exaggeration, but the officers and men at the grassroots level do not care so much, they see such a fact that they think is the truth, and they think so.

This is the prestige of the officers and men at the grassroots level.

Li Zhan said to Cheng Da that he didn't know how to explain to his soldiers, in fact, there was no need to explain at all, there was no explanation in the troops, what the orders of the superiors were like, you would do what the superiors asked you to do, your task was to do a good job and stand up for your post, and the rest was not your turn to consider!

There is no one who can lead such a proud son of heaven whose heart is higher than the sky?

You don't understand Li Zhan's approach now, and you will understand it later. Beiku confrontation drill has become a well-known brand in the case of facing an excellent opportunity for rapid development, resting on its laurels will bury all the efforts in the early stage, only in self-doubt and continuous improvement in order to get better development.

The fourth confrontation drill is over, and the officers and men of the Eagle Falcon Brigade have no time to immerse themselves in their emotions, and they have to step up their training to cope with the big competition in December, and the fifth confrontation drill will come as scheduled after the National Day.

There's no time for personal emotions.

Even Li Zhan ruthlessly refused the two appointments of the staff officers of the Niu Army, saying that they wanted to have an in-depth discussion on some specific issues of the Beiku tactical intelligence interactive platform, but Li Zhan politely refused.

In front of Li Zhan was the No. 1616 J-16, and he was going to ask her to come over for a real combat test flight, so he had to complete this matter before leaving. This is his main task for a period of time to come, and a short confrontation drill alone will not be able to fly a lot.

The staff officer of the Niu Army is really not as important as the J-16 No. 1616.

Seizing the week before the National Day holiday, Li Zhan led Han Hongjun to conduct a high-intensity test flight of the No. 1616 J-16 in the nature of actual combat application, and comprehensively tested the actual combat capability of the aircraft.

On September 23, the autumn equinox is the day of the solar festival, but the Beiku area ushered in the first major cooling of the year, with the lowest temperature reaching 5 degrees Celsius during the day and the lowest temperature approaching zero at night. In previous years, the average temperature at the same time of year was around 10 degrees, but this year's situation is very abnormal.

Early in the morning, the Niu Yaoyang maintenance team carried out pre-flight support for the No. 1616 J-16, and the main subject of today's actual flight training during the actual combat flight training of the maximum take-off weight, the maintenance team needed to carry out repeated and meticulous inspections of the fighters, which should be more strict and serious than the usual inspection support.

Many fighters rarely fly with maximum weight, and generally these are the contents of the envelope when the fighter is finalized. The maximum take-off weight of the J-16 reached 35 tons, which was five tons more than the J-11B, and the maximum bomb load reached 12 tons, while the J-11B was only seven tons, and even the H-6K was only 15 tons of professional bombers, which was a very terrifying data.

Niu Yaoyang repeatedly emphasized the most sentence in the guarantee: "Today is the largest mounted flight of half oil, and those who fill fuel must pay attention, five tons and five tons, add five tons of oil!" ”

The dead weight of the J-16 is about a ton lighter than that of the Su-30MKK, and seventeen tons are nodding, and all the redundant amount of this ton freed up can be used for mounting. In terms of internal oil, there is almost the same, all of them are ten tons, but the fuel economy of the Taihang engine used by the J-16 is better, so it can fly farther with the same fuel load.

The maximum load cannot be carried when the tank is full, so it is necessary to refuel in the air when flying with the maximum load and maximum range. The J-16 is derived from the Su-30MKK, which also has the ability to refuel in the air, which is undoubtedly an important capability for a multi-mission fighter.

The so-called standard payload of the J-16 refers to the payload capacity in a fully fueled state, which is about eight tons, and it cannot be filled with full fuel when more ammunition needs to be mounted, so as to achieve the maximum payload.

Today's take-off was a half-fuel maximum load, with only five tons of jet fuel being poured into the fuselage fuel tanks, and the wing reinforcing fuel tanks were empty. What makes Niu Yaoyang most uneasy is mounting. Hanging a full load of twelve tons really hurt his brain, and it was even more stressful for him to be the first to serve as a non-commissioned officer as a maintenance team leader.

"Squad leader, the quadruple bomb is hanged, but I always feel unreliable." A lieutenant ran over to report that his forehead was slightly sweaty and his sleeves were rolled up.

Hanging bombs is definitely physical work, even if it is a simulated training bomb.

Niu Yaoyang hurriedly walked over to check the situation.

In order to achieve the maximum payload, the joint repair plant of the maintenance brigade modified a 250-kilogram bomb quadruple pylon, which can increase the single payload capacity of the four hardpoints on the inside of the wing to one ton, which has a payload capacity of four tons. The four outer hardpoints are all equipped with air-to-air missiles, from heavy ultra-long-range to combat bombs, and in order to meet the requirements of the payload, the quadruple pylons of combat bombs are used on the outermost two hardpoints......

1616 J-16 has twelve hardpoints, two heavy-duty hangers are arranged longitudinally under the belly, it should be pointed out that the flanker series because of the strength of the fuselage, the heavy-duty hardpoint is on the inside of the wing, and the J-16 fuselage is manufactured using composite materials, which reduces the weight and strengthens the strength, so two heavy-duty hardpoints can be arranged under the belly. In this way, the J-16 has as many as six heavy-duty hardpoints.

In addition, two hardpoints are also arranged longitudinally on the longitudinal line of the two air intakes, so that there are four hardpoints under the fuselage, three under each of the wings, plus two wingtip pylons, a total of twelve hardpoints, which is a real aerial bomb truck.

Niu Yaoyang carefully inspected the quadruple pylon, this composite pylon is a complete Beiku product, it doesn't sound very reliable, but after repeated research and analysis by the technical officers and soldiers of the Beiku repair plant and the Eagle Falcon Maintenance Brigade, the J-11B has been tested several times, and it has been proved that there is no problem at all.

It just looks too slender.

Niu Yaoyang said with certainty to the professional and technical lieutenant who had not been in the army for three months, "No problem. ”

The little lieutenant smiled and said, "This pylon is so thin, I'm really worried that it will break, doesn't our captain like to soar supersound, this one is terrible." ”

"Twelve tons of payload can't soar at supersonic speed." Niu Yaoyang said seriously, "Lieutenant Xiaofang, the captain knows how to do things, and there will be no problem." ”

Little Lieutenant Luo Wei smiled and stopped talking.

The Beiku Combat Training Base is a peculiar place, and the 101st Brigade is a legendary unit. As soon as I got here, I heard about the prestige of Captain Li, who loves supersonic speed, attaches great importance to the trolley fee, has killed chickens in a plane, and has been killed by live ammunition, all of which have become legends.

Because he was born in a prestigious university and his major was related to the new domestic avionics system, Luo Wei was first assigned to the Eagle Falcon Brigade and then transferred to the brigade's star maintenance team Niu Yaoyang to work in the maintenance team.

The officers who have just walked out of the school are recruits, and they have no status in front of non-commissioned officers who have been in the military for four or five years, and they dare not take the officer's frame in the face of Niu Yaoyang, the first and only non-commissioned officer in the whole brigade.

Start from small things and do everything, so that you can gain a firm foothold as soon as possible, but Luo Wei feels that Niu Yaoyang is not appropriate for his position - he should be the one who sits in the cockpit to debug and inspect the avionics system, instead of standing under the wing and hanging bombs bitterly.

It is understandable that some famous college students have a low level of vision.

Looking at the time, it was already 7:30 in the morning, and it was still pitch black here. It is said that the people here will not go to work until nine o'clock, and the little lieutenant has a personal experience of the vastness of the motherland for the first time.

A gust of wind blew, and the little lieutenant, who was twisting the fixing screws on the composite pylon, couldn't help but shrink his neck, and his hands trembled. He hurriedly lowered his sleeves and tightened his collar, and continued to work with a screwdriver, silently thinking that he must do it as soon as possible

Pei Lei drove the warrior commuter car to send Li Zhan and Han Hongjun over, Li Zhan explained to Pei Lei before getting off the car, "Your sister-in-law will go to Beiku Airport at ten o'clock, and after breakfast, you go to the political commissar, and he will go to pick up the plane together." ”

"Understood! Don't worry, Captain, you will arrive at the designated location on time. Pei Lei said with a smile.

Li Zhan nodded and got out of the car with Han Hongjun.

Ying Wanjun had a holiday in advance, and the plane arrived at Beiku Airport at eight o'clock and ten o'clock, Li Zhan wanted Ying Wanjun to take a taxi to the base, but Bao Guanhua suddenly found him and said that he was going to pick up the plane. Only then did Li Zhan know that Ying Wanjun had already contacted Bao Guanhua in advance.

He knew why Bao Guanhua attached so much importance to Ying Wanjun, in the final analysis, because of him. When Xue Xiangdong was still there, Bao Guanhua often said that you can conduct combat training with peace of mind, and I will be responsible for the logistics work. The logistical work includes receiving the families of the visiting troops, and Bao Guanhua has a habit -- he will personally pick up and drop off the families of officers and soldiers with second-class merit and above when they come to the team.

This has undoubtedly greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of the officers and men for combat training.

It is not for nothing that the 101st Regiment can rise, and the role of the military and political chief can be seen.

Niu Yaoyang hurriedly gathered the personnel to organize the team, and ran over to report to Li Zhan, "Report to the captain, the plane is ready and ready to be handed over at any time!" ”

Luo Wei looked at the legendary Captain Li curiously, but he was a handsome person, which moved Luo Wei, who claimed to be the school grass, with a deep inferiority complex. But seeing that under the working lights, Captain Li's expression was cold, and the deep gaze under the sword eyebrows seemed to penetrate all the demons and monsters in the world, and his upright posture gave people a sense of security that "he would not fall in the sky".

Such a person must be very popular with women, right?

Niu Yaoyang came over to hand over the orders and check orders, and Li Zhan took them in his hands, but he walked up to the maintenance team and saluted, saying, "Comrades have worked hard, it's very cold, everyone relax, stamping their feet and rubbing their hands or something." ”

The officers and men all laughed and relaxed, stamping their feet and rubbing their hands to keep out the cold.

Luo Wei asked the sergeant beside him in a low voice, "Squad leader, the captain is quite kind." ”

"He is very kind to our grassroots officers and soldiers, and it can be said that he is the best among so many captains." The sergeant said proudly, "But he is very strict with cadres, exactly the same as our original brigade commander Xue Xiangdong." ”

"Oh, the brigade commander who chose to commit suicide in the sky?" Luo Wei said.

The other officers and soldiers of the maintenance crew suddenly glared at Luo Wei, and Luo Wei suddenly smelled an extremely dangerous breath, and his face turned a little pale with fright.

The sergeant just now turned to face Luo Wei and gritted his teeth and warned: "Luo Wei, I don't care what kind of famous college student you are, and I don't care what background you have in your family, now, apologize to the sky and apologize to the old brigade commander!" ”

Luo Wei shuddered slightly, and finally realized that he had committed a big taboo, and hurriedly looked up at the still dark sky and apologized solemnly: "Old brigade commander, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for my words." ”

The sergeant glared at Luo Wei fiercely before giving up.

What Luo Wei was talking about was hearsay and rumors, but he didn't know Xue Xiangdong's status in the minds of the officers and soldiers of the 101st Brigade, which was an untouchable reverse scale!

On that side, Li Zhan and Han Hongjun cross-checked against the items on the checklist. Each item needs to be confirmed by two people at the same time before the cross can be drawn. The cross means that the items that have been checked are confirmed to be fine, and the ticked areas need to be re-checked.

However, it is impossible for the pilot to check every screw, and it is only a small screw on the pylon, which is not half a turn, and even if there is no screw, it will not affect the safety of the flight. Half a wing can fly back, not to mention one less screw, not to mention that the screw is there, but it is half a circle less.

Standing still on the nose side, Li Zhan pointed to the three strong and powerful block letters painted on the fuselage on the side of the cockpit, "Good luck is coming", and said helplessly, "You can't do without these words?" ”

Niu Yaoyang replied seriously, "Captain Cong and Team Leader Miao Yu strongly recommend painting it, which will help the test flight work go smoothly." ”

"Engage in feudal superstition." Li Zhan scolded with a smile, shook his head helplessly, and boarded the cockpit along the boarding ladder with Han Hongjun at the same time.

Niu Yaoyang and the deputy team leader then went up to assist the pilot to link to the instrument panel, and after driving, the pilot checked the situation of each system again before the pilot signed the handover sheet to complete the handover procedures.

Everything is ready, and the tower gives orders.

"Six, six, you can slide out."
