During the entire Spring Festival, in addition to talking on the phone with his family, Li Zhan kept going into the war room, staying for half a day and half a day to conduct tactical research. Xue Xiangdong persuaded him to let him go out to Beikucheng several times to relax and relax, and at the most unfortunate to participate in the cultural and recreational activities in the group, such as basketball games with the station. Li Zhan then laughed and said that he would list me as an alternate, and if he couldn't beat me, he would be able to solve the problem.

As a result, Li Zhan didn't need to play at all.

On the last day of the holiday, Li Zhan grinded Xue Xiangdong to apply to visit and study in the fraternal troops. Xue Xiangdong was about to talk to Li Zhan about the matter of letting go of altitude difference combat training, but Li Zhan's request to visit and study disrupted his rhythm, and he had to apply to the division to put aside the matter of letting go of altitude difference combat training for the time being, and continued to feel uncomfortable in his heart.

Let go of the altitude difference free air combat, what a joke!

Xue Xiangdong disagreed, and planned to correct Li Zhan's training thoughts!

What kind of training do you do if you don't want the height difference?

Isn't that a joke?

Xue Xiangdong originally planned to give Li Zhan's plan a hard time, but as soon as it was brewed, Li Zhan applied to visit and study in his brother's troops, which caught him off guard. And he welcomed Li Zhan's request very much in his heart, and there was an extra buffer time, maybe after the visit and study, he saw the gap, and Li Zhan would not have the extremely dangerous idea of "canceling the free air battle of altitude difference".

Therefore, Xue Xiangdong attached great importance to it, and found Chen Hualin to contact the Southeast Military Region through the military region on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and based on the fact that he wanted to visit and study, he would visit and study the best troops, so he agreed to visit and study the third division in Youhu City, and it was determined before getting off work that afternoon, which can be described as a speed.

This incident also reflects the strong desire of various units within the air force to communicate with each other, and reflects the great shortcomings of the mechanism of communication within the troops.

On the morning of the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, under the personal leadership of Chen Hualin, Xue Xiangdong and all 18 pilots of the 101st Regiment Crazy Demon Brigade flew to Youhu City in two groups by civil airliner.

The reason why it was divided into two groups was to consider safety issues, and once the plane crashed, it would not suddenly lose the elite of the reinforced brigade.

Li Zhan and the brothers felt the comfortable seat of Coaster, and compared with the Iveco field transport vehicle sitting at home, the sour envy could not be concealed. Li Zhan looked at himself and his brothers, the casual clothes that had not been taken out and worn for many years at the bottom of the box were no longer known how many years ago, compared with the pedestrians on the street outside, they were dirt buns from the mountains.

Docking Li Zhan was Yao Dongming, the captain of the Seventh Brigade of the Ninth Regiment, a well-known ace pilot in the army, who was young and dazzling, and once won the first place in the total score of ground attack in a big competition. Seeing Yao Dongming, who was very clear and organized, Li Zhan thought of Zhang Xueyang. The guy who is so handsome that he can't wait to be the image representative of the second division doesn't know what happened to the Flying Shark training team.

Li Zhan couldn't help but ask, "Team Yao, has anyone in your division participated in the Flying Shark Training Team?" ”

Yao Dongming, who was sitting in a row with him, patted his thigh and said, "Why not, just count the number of our divisions, and go to ten places in one go, all of them are top-notch." Alas, the division pressed me not to go, otherwise I would also have to challenge the most difficult flight in the world. ”

"You can't hold it hard in the division, right? The formation of a carrier-based fighter unit is the highest task. Li Zhan said.

Yao Dongming said with a smile, "It is the highest task of the Navy." The air division promised to draw ten top players from our division, which is already the greatest support. The head of the air division said, I can't stop fighting, right? In fact, this is the truth, the entire southeast can be said to be supported by our division. ”

The second division did not dare to say this, but the three hundred divisions dared.

Li Zhan fell into a long silence.

Comparisons are odious.

What kind of division is the 300 division?

The first division in the world, worthy of the name of the first!

The famous Wang Hai Brigade is in this division, and four of the six first-class heroes of the Volunteer Air Force are from the 300th Division, Wang Hai, Zhao Baotong, Sun Shenglu martyrs, and Liu Yudi, all of whom are familiar names. In particular, Zhao Baotong was awarded special merit twice and was the only pilot to receive this honor.

If it is said that is the old yellow calendar, then look at the division's achievements in the later territorial air defense operations, the southeast coast, the transfer of Guangdong Province, the aid to Vietnam to resist the United States, and the defense and counterattack of southern Xinjiang......

At that time, the only key construction unit of the Air Force was the 300 Division, and the Second Division was not ranked high!

The first batch of 12 SU-27SK and SU-27UBK bought back in the 90s under such a tight foreign exchange situation were all equipped with the 9th Regiment of the division, and the second batch of 12 aircraft was also placed in the 9th Regiment. How poor was it in those days? So poor that the soldier's allowance is only a dozen yuan! One can imagine how determined the country is to buy these fighters back.

To what extent is the importance of the 300 divisions?

Later, I bought the SU-30MKK, and gave it to the Ninth Regiment of the 300 Division without anyone giving it, and replaced the SU-27 that they had used for less than eight years. It was from that time that the principle that more attention should be paid to the construction of key troops.

Not long after the 300 divisions were equipped with SU-27, about two or three years, the second division was also identified as a key construction force, becoming the second batch of units equipped with third-generation aircraft of the Chinese Air Force, using SU-27SK and SU-27UBK, which are those used by the sixth regiment.

It is said that the 6th Regiment will soon be converted into J-11B, and the eliminated SU-27 is expected to be handed over to the troops in the central region.

From the perspective of geographical location, the air force's fighter configuration is heavy in the east and light in the west, and the further west it goes, the worse the fighters become. This is decided on the basis of geographical relations, and the most advanced fighters will be placed in which direction the combat readiness pressure is greater.

The significance of the SU-27 series fighters to the Chinese Air Force is not only that the development of fighter jets has made a leap forward, but even when purchasing this fighter at that time, it did not think so far ahead! What would you think if, on many nights, a powerful enemy always takes a laser from the sky to shine on your living room and your bedroom, and you only have tattered curtains and kites in your hands?

Your first thought is to buy curtains that block lasers, and advanced kites that can drive away laser-emitting flies in the sky!

Smash the pot and sell iron, but also buy it!

Sukhoi fighters and S-300s came to China against the backdrop of such times.

EVEN FROM A CERTAIN POINT OF VIEW, THE POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SU-27 IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE MILITARY SIGNIFICANCE.

Five years ago, the 8th Regiment of the 300th Division became the second J-10 fighter regiment. One can imagine how important the position of the division is, and how much the division is valued by the superiors.

Yao Dongming told Li Zhan a shocking news, and he said confidently, "The Seventh Regiment is refitting the J-11B type, and the process has arranged for you to visit the Seventh Regiment, and then you can take a good look at the difference between the domestic Sukhoi and the original one, it will be beyond your imagination." ”

"What? So, isn't your division a full third generation of pilots? Li Zhan was surprised.

Yao Dongming smiled modestly and nodded, "Yes, the first all-third-generation aircraft unit in the whole army, so you came at the right time." China's most advanced fighters are in our division. ”

The news was shocking.

In Li Zhan's case, based on the information he learned and the situation of the 300 divisions, he could draw at least two judgments. First, the output of the aircraft factory has gone up, which also means that the heart problem that has plagued the J-11B for many years has been solved; Second, the highest superiors are in full swing to speed up the pace of changing the troops! The constant changes in the modification tasks and the continuous changes in time encountered by the 2nd Division and the 4th Regiment of the old army just confirmed the above judgment.

"That's great news!" Li Zhan said sincerely with a light in his eyes.

The speed of changing equipment is faster, which means that the elimination of old fighters will be accelerated, so the tattered king division will have better rags to pick up. In the past, I could only pick up the J-7 or something, and maybe in the future, I can pick up the J-8 or even those original SU-27s that have been in service for more than ten or twenty years.

Yao Dongming didn't know that Li Zhan's mind turned and he thought of picking up the rags, but he felt that the captain of the brother army was not stable enough, and it wasn't for you to modify what were you excited about?

"Captain Li, our J-7 experience should be the most abundant in the whole army, several major models have been used, and the models you have never seen have also been used. I won't hide my secrets, they're all brothers, and it's right to help each other. Yao Dongming said with a smile.

Li Zhan nodded slightly, what Yao Dongming said was the truth.

But Han Hongjia, who was sitting in the row of seats in the back and had been listening to their chat, couldn't help laughing, and said in his heart, compare the experience of using the J-7 with our captain? Aren't you making yourself uncomfortable? If you knew that three of our captain's four first-class merits were obtained by driving the J-7, you would probably smoke your own mouth.

Li Zhan couldn't wait to ask Yao Dongming, "Captain Yao, how big is the difference between the E-type of Su Liangqi and Jian-Qi?" Purely from a technical level. ”

Yao Dongming smiled and looked out the window, there happened to be a Wuling macro driving by, followed by a luxury car, he pointed and said, "Jianqi is the small van, Su Liangqi is a luxury car, the gap is ...... I can't describe it, but all in all, it can be said to be epoch-making. ”

"It's the same with the early Su Liangqi?" Li Zhan frowned and asked.

Yao Dongming nodded affirmatively, "Yes, the gap will only be wider." ”

Li Zhan was silent again. When he was in the second division, he didn't even get into the cockpit of the SU-27 a few times, let alone drove it, and he never got on the simulator.

He didn't think that Yao Dongming would deliberately exaggerate, so there was a huge gap.

Li Zhan didn't dare to imagine the scene of confrontation with the 300 Division, it was simply self-inflicted.

Chatting all the way, the second batch of western buns, under the leadership of Xue Xiangdong, took Coaster and drove into the headquarters of the 300th Division and the Youhuchang Station of the Ninth Regiment, and walked into the camp of the Ninth Regiment, the absolute main force of the world's famous and super rich First Division in the world.
