Chapter 502: Dissecting F-16

Suspension of travel to Pakistan.

After receiving the order, everyone was very incomprehensible, it was originally a rush task, and there was a consensus up and down, otherwise the test flight team would not have transferred from Gao Qi's side overnight, so that Li Zhan couldn't even interact with the young ladies in the air a few times.

Li Zhan was about to ask Tang Guozheng what was going on, but Tang Guozheng came over first and said, "The 404th Department is going to conduct a routine review of the personnel going to Pakistan, so this matter is in a hurry, but it can't be delayed for a few days." ”

"404 Division...... Li Zhan wanted to say something, but when he thought that he had graduated from the 404th Aviation School, he could only reluctantly accept it, and said comfortingly, "It's okay, let's take advantage of these few days to study the confrontation drill at that time." It is said that we will also conduct coordinated combat drills with friendly forces, and we also happen to train and train first. ”

Tang Guozheng replied, "Yes, that's what the superiors mean." After all, you have been away from the Eagle Falcon Brigade for a few months, and you have to find out what the combat skills of the two old subordinates are. Duda station here fully supports, you make a training plan and report it to me, and I communicate with the station. ”

"That's pretty much it." Li Zhan's mood is finally better, as long as he can fly, he will go to Basij later if he goes to Basij later, after all, military exchange activities cannot be organized in one or two sentences.

He really wanted to be able to conduct targeted training on his side before starting a confrontation drill with friendly forces, and the results of this confrontation drill were too important.

At that moment, Chen Fei, Han Hongjun, and Li Zixin were summoned to discuss the training plan, and arranged at least 12 hours of flight training for three days, mainly for free air combat. They are all old birds with more than 1,000 flight hours, and even Li Zhan's beast counted 2,150 flight hours at the end of December last year - he has flown more than 2,000 hours since he left the army. This is the standard of a real old bird.

Someone helped him calculate an account, according to the average hourly rod fee of 600 yuan, his rod income in the past three years is nearly 1.3 million yuan, an average of 400,000 yuan per year. It's just the tie-rod fee. But this does not seem to be an exaggeration, after all, in 2011, the average annual salary of civil aviation captains announced by relevant agencies was 600,000 yuan.

However, it cannot be simply statistically compared, because the income composition of civil aviation pilots is very complex, and they are all captains or co-pilots, which are closely related to the specific situation. For example, the level, the number of years of service, whether to serve as an instructor, etc., such as the senior captain, the four of them are all instructors of their respective airlines, and the salary is definitely higher than that of not serving as an instructor. Whether to fly international routes, plateau routes, etc., etc., is very complicated.

Captains with a monthly salary of 20,000 or 30,000 abound.

However, if you compare civil aviation pilots with Li Zhan's level and personal contributions, then Li Zhan's income is obviously low. He should get a captain's salary at the level of general manager.

These are nothing more than appendages, and the real gain is the growth of experience. It can be said that Li Zhan spent three years flying the road that others would take ten years to complete, and he can gain more experience in such a highly concentrated intensity flight. For example, his ability to deal with dangerous situations is a household name in the aviation units of the whole army.

After the plan was reported to Tang Guozheng, Guo Beimu personally found Li Zhan with a box of materials, and after putting it on the table, Zhu Zihe slowly said with a box of materials, "Everything that can be found is here, you pay attention, you should be extra careful with the words top secret, and it is only for the four of you to circulate." ”

"Understood, Old Battalion Commander Xie." Li Zhan said with a smile.

This matter is only useful for Guo Beimu, even if it is difficult for him to collect such complete relevant information in such a short period of time.

Much of the 2012 performance data on the F-16 has not yet been declassified.

Even Li Zhan believes that the intelligence department may have paid a great price in order to collect this information many years ago.

Knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can survive a hundred battles, this is the experience left by the ancestors, the foreign army has learned some fur, we ourselves are passed down from generation to generation, and the natural understanding is more profound and the use is more sufficient.

Therefore, Li Zhan and the other four gathered around a square table and began to circulate materials and began to dissect the F-16. Everyone knows about this fighter, and after getting out of the army, they will organize to watch internal teaching films every other night, including the analysis of several main fighters in the world, as the world's largest number of third-generation aircraft, F-16 is undoubtedly one of the key models.

In addition to the F-16, the Mirage-2000 is also the focus of analysis and research, why the Mirage-2000 and not the F-15, F-22, these famous third-generation and fourth-generation aircraft?

I can't just talk about that.

However, with the change in the development strategy of the Air Force and the adjustment of the national defense strategy, this situation is also changing. After all, after the fourth-generation aircraft came out, the F-16, Mirage-2000 and the like have been reduced to "target aircraft", and there is no need to focus research on them.

It is only until the fourth-generation aircraft are listed to form combat effectiveness and are sufficient, that the F-16 and Mirage-2000 remain the main threat. This kind of confrontation is actually very, very normal, for manufacturers fighter is a commodity, to win more orders in the competition to make their products superior to their opponents in all aspects.

For example, the competition between the two series of airliners, Airbus-320 and Boeing-737, and the competition between F-16, Mirage-2000, JAS-39, and MIG-29.

It's not that I want to treat you as my potential enemy, I'll just make a fighter plane that can suppress your main fighter plane, the Cold War era has long passed, the Cold War mentality has also disappeared, and the whole world is a village of people, everyone has healthy competition, make a lot of money, and boost the economy......

The analysis of the F-16 is a process of learning, learning from other people's good technology and good design ideas, learning from each other's strengths and complementing each other's weaknesses, from the design ideas of the fighter can reflect the tactical thinking of foreign armies, which is also worth learning and learning from, to its dross, to take its essence, and then refine it, according to their own situation to improve and adjust, their own combat effectiveness will not go up?

Therefore, even if there is no next military exchange, Li Zhan believes that it is very beneficial to organize an in-depth analysis of F1-6, especially for him personally, after all, whether it is the next actual combat test flight or the future service with HNA, he will encounter more J-10 series fighters that simulate F1-6.

I was afraid of the word "serious" in everything, and after the four old birds gathered together to read the information for a morning, they really had a lot of new experiences and discoveries.

Li Zhan simply asked Tang Guozheng and Guo Beimu to organize the technical representatives of the manufacturer and the technical analysis group to brainstorm in the evening and discuss targeted tactics based on the analysis of the F-16.

This move was supported by Tang Guozheng and Guo Beimu. Yi Xiaoyi, the technical representative of the manufacturer, Zhang Chongming and Gan Tingting, the representatives of the technical analysis group, participated in the meeting, and their understanding of the theory is undoubtedly more comprehensive and solid than that of the pilots.

The meeting was scheduled for 8 p.m. in the underground war room.
