It took half a day for the maintenance to complete the preparations for the 81198 J-7, mainly to install a high-definition camera that can shoot at any angle and a multi-angle perspective in the cockpit, of course, the pilot's first perspective.

Some of the footage will be used for public reporting and publicity, and most of it will be accumulated as teaching materials. Li Zhan must be held responsible for this matter because his superiors think that all the shots he shoots can be used as a model for teaching.

In addition to the integrated tactical pods under the belly, two auxiliary fuel tanks are hung on the inner heavy pylons of the two wings, and the outermost two pylons on the two wings are respectively hung with Thunderstone laser-guided bombs and aviation rocket launch nests. Coupled with the full oil, the old flying leopard is almost fully loaded.

Li Zhan did not have air-to-air weapons, but according to the requirements of the vigilance patrol, the maintenance staff filled the magazine of 200 rounds of 23 mm caliber guns. When on duty, even if you don't have air-to-air missiles, you have to bring a cannon, which is the last resort and the most likely weapon for daily patrols. When expelling the foreign plane, the target did not listen to the persuasion and fired the machine gun, which was a final warning.

HNA used the Flying Leopard as a purely sea-to-sea attack aircraft, and the purpose of purchasing it was to replace the Qiang-5, which was okay to do front-line support work, and it was impossible to travel thousands of miles to break through the defense circle of the US aircraft carrier battle group to attack.

Of course, the flying leopard is also reluctant, so even if it takes more time, it will take the J-16 to get out.

(The fourth-generation aircraft have formed the combat effectiveness of the J-16 before it began to enter service, and when I saw the text news, I thought it was another fourth-generation aircraft, but I looked for a picture, and it was ruthless!) Two-seater Su two-seven! ）

At 3 o'clock in the morning of the 24th, Li Zhan and others made final preparations in the flight briefing room, each with its own task, familiar with the task, and then whispered to each other to communicate the relevant links, or repeatedly confirmed the time node. The red telephone rang from time to time, and the orders of the exercise headquarters came down one after another, and most of them were reports on the battle situation, that is, the background of the enemy situation was reported to each combat unit according to the time node.

Li Zhan inspected Niu Jun's attire. There are no female pilots in the Flying Shark Unit, and the flight suit worn by Niu Jun was given to Li Zhan by Lu Xiaoran, of course Li Zhan didn't want it, the problem was that Lu Xiaoran sent it directly, and it didn't work if he didn't want it. Just right, he took it out and put it on Niu Jun.

"Hey, it fits perfectly." Li Zhan helped Niu Jun put on the flight equipment, nodded and said.

Niu Jun made a chest expansion movement and said, "It's a little tight here, who is this dress, I have height but my chest is not big." ”

Li Zhan said casually, "A student's gift." ”

"Sent by the students? How could I give you a women's flight suit? Niu Jun asked strangely.

Li Zhan said, "Female students, some time ago I brought a female flying class, which was given to me by the squad leader on behalf of the whole body as a souvenir. There is also a chest tag, which is also embroidered. ”

"Female student!" Niu Jun looked at Li Zhan in surprise, and suddenly found that Li Zhan was the same as no one, and then he realized that his thoughts were not pure.

Senior brother's style is clearly treating other female pilots as brothers, alas, it's not interesting, senior brother is so pitiful.

After Li Zhan checked Niu Jun's dress again, he pointed to the two cameras that had been prepared, and looked at the very expensive cameras, one wide-angle lens and one telephoto lens, saving the time of changing lenses and picking them up to capture them. "When I tell you to sit tight, you have to fix the camera because you might do three or four G's of overload maneuvers, and safety comes first," he said. ”

"Understood, senior brother, rest assured." Niu Jun straightened his chest with confidence.

Li Zhan nodded in satisfaction.

Dai Wenming beckoned everyone to sit down, "Assemble!" ”

Everyone sat down quickly, even Niu Jun was no exception, and the movements were neat and tidy. Technical officers are also officers, and officers are first and foremost soldiers, and basic military qualities must be passed. As long as you are a soldier, five-kilometer cross-country, live shooting, and grenade throwing are the three basic combat subjects that must be learned.

Dai Wenming nodded to everyone and said, "Everyone, the last meeting before the war. There are two main points emphasized. The first thing to talk about is the issue of timing. Be sure to arrive at the designated airspace within the specified time to complete the shooting, and withdraw from the designated airspace within the specified time. ”

"To carry out anti-ship assault operations against large ship targets at sea, the exercise command gave us only three minutes to shoot. From striking anti-ship missiles to getting out of the threatened airspace, we have only three minutes. Because the naval task force was going to launch an anti-aircraft missile in three minutes, we were at risk of being accidentally injured. ”

The reason why the exercise command set the strike time of the air strike detachment so rigidly is that, according to consistent experience, the air defense response time of large surface ships is three minutes, and the longest time is not more than five minutes.

"The second point is the issue of vigilance patrols. After completing the live firing, we will move to the exercise area to conduct alert patrols to ensure the smooth progress of the follow-up exercise. In accordance with international practice, it is necessary to expel ships and aircraft that have intruded into the no-navigation zone, especially in the bomb-impact zone. ”

Dai Wenming finished here, looked at Li Zhan, and asked, "Mr. Li." ”

Li Zhan stood up, didn't walk up, turned around and said to everyone, "Let me add, safety first, don't be brutal." ”

Li Zhan, who is the most insecure, has often talked about "safety first" since he returned from military exchanges abroad, and of course everyone knows that "security" in his eyes is not the same as "security" as understood by others.

In comparison, Li Zhan's task in this exercise was the most complicated but also the most relaxed, and he did not need to use his supercomputing brain to calculate the various route points of the defense attack, nor did he need to worry about the whole attack.

He just needs to shoot and run.

Of course, in order to shoot precious shots, he also needs to follow the air strike detachment to fly at an ultra-low altitude and skimming the sea.

Li Zhan picked up the satellite phone and put it in his right breast pocket and fixed it, then put a card camera in his left breast pocket and fixed it, and then he put on the pair of white labor protection gloves that were already a little yellow and much thinner.

"What kind of glove is this?" Niu Jun stared curiously at Li Zhan's white labor protection gloves.

Li Zhan replied, "Flying gloves are classic." ”

"It's clearly a labor protection glove." Niu Jun put down his new leather gloves, ripped off Li Zhan's white labor protection gloves, and asked, "It's weird and comfortable to touch, is there anything else?" ”

Li Zhan said, "I've been wearing this old white for four years, and I've been pulped, of course, it's comfortable." There's also a slurry in the bedroom, but I have a new one in the cabinet. ”

"Take it and I'll wear it, this one looks good, it's eye-catching." Niu Jun said as excitedly as the little girl got a new toy.

Li Zhan went to get a new pair for Niu Jun, and Niu Jun said, "You wear a new one, this pair of pulp will be worn for me." ”

"Nope." Li Zhan seriously refused, "I don't have a guy to take advantage of, I can't pull the lever, and the feel is very important." ”

Niu Jun threw down the pulp white labor protection gloves and picked up the new white labor protection gloves, pouting, "Stingy." ”

Li Zhan laughed it off.

The question is, how many times do you need to pull the lever to pull out the white gloves and pull out the slurry and pull out the natural old yellow?

Dai Wenming and others did not have such white labor protection gloves, and neither did Chengda, who had the longest flight time. It's not that they don't use protective gloves, it's that their flight intensity is far from enough. Li Zhan's three-year flight hours are equivalent to their ten years of flying hours, and even beyond.

At present, most of the troops are still using white labor protection gloves, the second-generation aircraft units are all using this thing, and the Flying Leopard troops and some third-generation aircraft units are also using them in small quantities. This is because our army does not yet have a standard universal flight glove, and it has not yet been concluded whether it is common to the three services or developed according to the arms of the service.

In the case of catching up with large weapons and equipment, military workers will not have more energy to pay attention to small pieces. Judging from the development of the military industry in the past period, it can basically be summarized as all-round development, with some emphasis, and top-notch in each field.

"What are you doing with a satellite phone?" Niu Jun asked.

Li Zhan said, "Be prepared, if you encounter a coast guard ship, it is more reliable to contact them by satellite phone than to use an international channel." ”

Niu Jun gave a thumbs up, "If you have ideas, senior brother is amazing." ”

"Can you change it to a new one?" Li Zhan was numb when he heard this, and smiled casually.

Niu Jun smiled and showed a mouthful of white teeth, "Senior brother is so handsome." ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense?"

"Who are you talking nonsense?" Niu Jun suddenly approached, suppressed his voice, smiled, and asked viciously.

Li Zhan didn't hear it, looked at the time, and shouted, "Let's go!" ”

Everyone rushed out with their flight helmets and small flight bags, and Li Zhan also picked up the flight helmet and small flight bags and rushed out. Niu Jun hurriedly picked up the small flight bag containing two cameras and related accessories and ran out, ran a few steps and found that his head was empty and he felt a little bald, and when he looked back, oh, he forgot to wear his head. Hurriedly turned around, picked up the flying helmet, and rushed out again.

The night is black.

There are no clouds in the sky, standard air pressure, wind force 5 meters, wind direction 160 degrees, temperature 7 degrees Celsius.

It's pitch black in the outfield, and if you're facing the tail of the fighter, you might be able to see the light at the engine vent that's already in motion. Military airports without runway lights are pitch black and sloppy, and the sound of aero engines idling is low and powerful.

Li Zhan quickly boarded the plane, connected the headset and oxygen supply system, and then made pre-takeoff preparations with the mechanic to check the status of various systems. Wearing white labor protection gloves covered with pulp and touching the mottled instrument panel, every switch is telling the glorious history, which makes people feel a lot of emotion.

Sure enough, the white labor protection gloves wrapped in pulp are the best match for the temperament of the old flying leopard!

At this moment, Li Zhan felt like he had been constipated for several days and finally all discharged, and he held the 81198 J-7, which was also pulped and had a large margin of joystick, and he actually had a strong confidence in shooting down the F-22A!

The flying leopard is still old!
