On the way back, Yang Luo directly soared at supersonic speed, and soon returned to Dongling Station.

Jumping down the boarding ladder from the Jianjiao-7, Ye Jianlong was impatient to find Gou Quan, and said angrily: "Dog, what's the matter? How did such a big mistake occur? ”

Yang Luo watched coldly from the sidelines, waiting for Gou Quan's explanation.

The missile ignited under the butt and was not launched, and an explosion was unlikely, but it was a matter of time before the wing was burned.

"Bugs, did you take gunpowder or something? With such a big fire, I don't even know what's going on, how can I answer you? Gou Quan looked at Ye Jianlong in confusion, he hadn't been notified by the tower yet, and he didn't know what was going on at all.

Ye Jianlong pointed to the plane and said, "See for yourself, is there anything missing on the plane?" “

Gou Quan glanced at Ye Jianlong, and then walked in front of Jianjiao-7, which happened to be on the right, so he could see at a glance that the launcher under the wing was missing, and said suspiciously: "Why is the launcher missing?" Check it out now. “

The last four words are spoken to the maintenance staff.

"I threw it away." Ye Jianlong said with a dark face, "The missile can't be ignited and launched, if you don't throw it away with the launcher, will you wait to burn me and Yang Luo." “

"Impossible!" Gou Quan was shocked, "This is a new launcher, it was just installed today, how can it malfunction?" “

"How do I know? I have to ask you about it, it's the maintenance you do. Ye Jianlong said.

"Captain Gou, you said that this is a new launcher, it stands to reason that the new launcher cannot fail, right?" Yang Luo said, obviously not believing in Gou Quan's words.

"This is indeed a new launcher, and I have a list to pick up here." Gou Quan explained, "Bug, do you know how long it has been since the 811 has been equipped with a missile, it has been more than half a year, how can there be an old launcher, the old launcher is all used on the J-7G." “

Ye Jianlong was silent for a while after hearing this, then turned around and left.

When Gou Quan said that this was a new launcher, Ye Jianlong knew that he was wrong to blame Gou Quan, and it was impossible for Gou Quan to lie to himself on the old and new issues, and he could find out at a check.

Once the launch rack does not need to be used, it must be handed over to the station for safekeeping after being disassembled, and it will be collected when it needs to be used, and it must be signed and recorded.

Yang Luo caught up with Ye Jianlong's pace and asked puzzledly, "Team Ye, what's going on?" “

"There should be no problem with the maintenance of the aircraft, it should be the quality of the launch frame." Ye Jianlong said, "Have you noticed that the launcher on combat readiness duty is different from the one used now?" ”

"Is it different? I didn't pay attention. Yang Luo thought about it for a while, but couldn't think of it.

"The combat readiness duty is the domestic launch frame under the AVIC brand, and this batch of launchers is imported from abroad, and the performance has seriously lagged behind, so it is only used for training." Ye Jianlong explained.

There are three years in three years, and another three years are sewn and repaired, and if you can use it, you can use it.

This is the fine quality of the Chinese people.

In the nineties, many things were obtained from the disintegrated red regime, from all walks of life, including launchers.

Today, the performance of these launchers has seriously lagged behind, but they are reluctant to throw them away, after all, they were bought with money. I had to make do with it for training, anyway, it was just target shooting, and it wasn't real combat, so it didn't matter in terms of performance.

But today, when this happens, a new launcher fails, and I am afraid that no matter how reluctant it is, the air division will also give it up and replace it with a safer and more advanced launcher.

When Yang Luo was still changing clothes, pilots came down from the sky one after another to change their clothes, and they all received orders to return to the plane.

If such a big thing happens, the regiment naturally needs to dismantle all the missile launchers for inspection, and it is impossible to let them fly in the sky.

Because the set training plan was not completed, and there was a dangerous situation, huh...... It is also considered a kind of dangerous situation.

So Yang Luo went to the aviation medical room in the afternoon to do a psychological test, and used Zhang Qingyao's office as a teahouse.

Also in the afternoon, the launch frame that was thrown away by Yang Luo and Ye Jianlong was recovered and transported back to the station for testing.

The flight training plan for the afternoon and evening was carried out as usual, except that the planes that did not have target missions were not equipped with launchers at all, and the planes with target missions were replaced by domestic launchers under AVIC.

What went wrong with the launcher, whether it was due to its own quality, or because of improper storage, there was no result for a while. After all, testing takes time.

In August, the temperature at Donglingchang Station during the day was quite suitable, about 256 degrees, but at night the temperature dropped sharply to 156 degrees, a difference of about 10 degrees, and the temperature difference was quite large.

Today's weather was supposed to be cloudy, but at night it was starry, and the moon hung high in the sky, sprinkling the bright moonlight.

It's a good weather for night sailing!

At eight o'clock in the evening, the No. 1 hangar was brightly lit and the figures were longing, and the aircraft maintenance was busy checking and filling up aviation fuel before takeoff.

Yang Luo, Ye Jianlong, Xue Fei and Zhao Long stepped on the silver-white moonlight, talking and laughing on the way to Hangar No. 1.

Tonight, three members of the first brigade and one squadron, plus team leader Ye Jianlong, who also served as the leader of the first squadron, went into battle to train night flight formations.

The first thing to overcome on night sailing is the fear of darkness.

And what is the most dangerous thing about night flights?

In fact, just like during the day, there are bird hits, mid-air collisions, collisions with obstacles, aircraft breakdowns, lightning strikes, etc., but at night, these dangers are magnified several times over.

At night, the eyes can't see, and the only thing you can rely on is the data on the instruments in the cockpit.

Yang Luo carried a flight helmet in his hand and walked to his own No. 801 fighter.

This is not Yang Luo's first night flight, but it is the first time he has flown in formation with other people.

A crew member stepped forward with the handover folder and saluted: "Comrade pilot, the plane is ready, please accept it." ”

Yang Luo returned the salute, took the folder, circled around the fuselage, carefully checked to confirm that there was no problem, signed his name, jumped into the cockpit along the boarding ladder, fastened his seat belt, and put on a flight helmet.

The maintenance helped Yang Luo close the cockpit glass cover, and then evacuated the boarding ladder.

After the instrument inspection is completed, the preparation is signaled to the maintenance.

"801 ready." After turning on the on-board communication system and reporting to Ye Jianlong, he quietly waited for Ye Jianlong's command.

Flying in formation cannot be chaotic, and must obey the instructions of the long plane.

"803 ready."

"804 ready."

The voices of Zhao Long and Xue Fei came out of the headset in turn, and finally Ye Jianlong's voice came: "I'll slide out first, and 801, 803, and 804 will follow in turn." “

After the three declarations, Ye Jianlong's No. 802 fighter first slid out of the hangar under the flag instructions of the maintenance and went to the No. 1 runway to prepare for takeoff.

Yang Luo followed and stopped braking on track 2.

According to the normal procedure, contact the tower and request to take off.

After obtaining permission from the tower and meteorological data, four warplanes roared and ran on the runway.

The four runways, each with one fighter, take off in a formation of four planes in a horizontal formation, and taxi and take off at the same time, which can omit the link of air formation.

During the daytime formation flight, Yang Luo flew several times, and it was the first time that the night flight formation took off, but Yang Luo was not stunned, just follow the normal operation process.

Almost at the same time, the four fighters pulled their levers and raised their heads, roaring out of the ground's restraints and into the vast night sky.

The orange-red tail flame ejected by the turbojet-13F aero engine was particularly clear in the black night sky, and it did not finally disappear until it was far away from Dongling Station.
