Hovering at an economical cruising speed, Li Zhan can hold out in the sky for at least two hours at most.

Compared to the past few times when it was a race against time, this time is enough time to watch a movie, and there is still time to go to the toilet before and after watching it.

The dialogue between the tower and the No. 037 fighter is very frequent, the tower keeps reporting the data, Li Zhan adjusts it according to his feelings, and the command is maintained after the tower confirms that the adjustment is in place. This process seems simple, but it is actually quite not simple.

It takes time for the radar to obtain the relevant data of the fighter, and it takes time for the commander to report the data to Li Zhan, and there is a delay problem in this. During this delayed time, the fighter plane is not stationary, but keeps moving all the time. As a result, errors will occur. When Li Zhan adjusted the flight attitude by feeling, and there was a delay between the adjustment in place and the radar to obtain data, the fighter maintained its motion in the same process, and the error continued to increase.

The way to eliminate the error is very simple, the commander must accurately judge and leave the most accurate margin, and Li Zhan wants to make his sense infinitely close to accuracy, and consciously leave a margin. Both the land and air forces must have a very tacit understanding in order to complete the "ground as eyes" hovering mode.

Qi Hong divided the personnel into two groups, one group was responsible for fully assisting Li Zhan to maintain a circling posture, and selected elite soldiers and strong generals to form the other group as the rescue command group to race against time to study the plan. He personally led the rescue command team, and the tower work was handed over to Fang Chenghe.

The plan proposed by Zhang Wei is possible to be realized!

Whether it works or not, do an experiment to evaluate.

Under Qi Hong's order, the relevant departments quickly took action, which was also a sudden time to test the troops' emergency combat capabilities. The relevant departments of ground support finally became the protagonists, and at this time, Li Zhan in the sky, including the staff on duty at the tower, all became supporting roles.

Whether the No. 037 fighter can land or not, except for Li Zhan, depends on the cooperation and test results of these ground support departments.

On the parallel road, in front of the meteorological station, a J-7E was towed by the maintenance staff, and one of the best pickup trucks at the station was parked in front of the fighter, and several high-power lights were played around to illuminate the scene as if it were daylight. Qi Hong, Yu Chenglin, Zhang Wei and meteorologist Zhang Yuan stood between the fighter plane and the pickup truck, forming a small circle to discuss, other staff officers were ready to make calculations at any time behind them, and the ground crew were running and busy.

The plan was proposed by Zhang Wei, in fact, he had a flash of inspiration and thought that there seemed to be such a bridge in a certain film and television work, and thought that it was possible to achieve it, so he put it forward without thinking too much. He didn't expect to make such a big scene now, but at this point, he can only bite the bullet.

Zhang Wei held the drawing board in his hand and said loudly, "Loading sandbags and other heavy objects on the pickup truck to improve the vehicle's own stability can achieve the effect of increasing stability, but this will affect the speed of the pickup truck." My solution was to arrange one or two high-horsepower vehicles with good acceleration performance in front of the pickup truck, use the tow rope to connect them, and pull the pickup truck forward. As long as the speed of the pickup truck reaches 160 kilometers per hour, the relative speed of the fighter aircraft is only about 80 kilometers per hour. I believe that with Li Zhan's ability, he can accurately put the front wheel in the half-down state into the back bucket accurately. ”

Looking at Zhang Wei's eloquent appearance, Qi Hong felt more and more that the probability of success of this method was extremely low. Every step is not easy to achieve, but if one step deviates, Li Zhan will not die alone.

Yu Chenglin was very decisive and said, "No, the more complex the link, the easier it is to have problems." Don't forget, Li Zhan's skills are very good, but the cockpit is powered off, and he can't get the data at all. There is an insurmountable delay in data sharing between the tower and him, and there is no way to give timely corrective instructions in the process of forced landing. ”

Zhang Wei withered all of a sudden, his pressure was too great, he had encountered this situation once upon a time, even if there was, the pressure was not something that a small staff officer of his hand was qualified to carry.

One drum is like a tiger, then it declines, and three times it is exhausted, which is about his situation.

Qi Hong has been thinking sharply, of course, there is a third plan - abandon the plane and parachute. However, the plane must not be abandoned until the most critical moment. This is not transferred by the will of the individual, but there are strict rules. At least for now, Li Zhan's life has not been threatened.

In addition, there are cases of successful forced landings based on the main landing gear alone.

But Li Zhan now encountered a more complicated problem, and could only perform blind exercises according to the instructions of the tower. In the final analysis, it mainly depends on Li Zhan's opinion.

Thinking of this, Qi Hong quickly made a decision, first tested, if he couldn't come up with a feasible plan, he decided to order Li Zhan to abandon the plane and parachute. Leaders should be responsible, which is the earnest teaching of the teacher before leaving. The loss of a fighter plane is nothing, and at the end of the year, it stands up and is criticized, and if there are no people, there is nothing, and it is already such a dazzling pacesetter!

"Deputy Commander Yu, arrange the test immediately, you go on it yourself!" Qi Hong ordered.

Niu Yaoyang ran over and stood up and asked for instructions, "Report!" Chief, I ask to drive a pickup truck! None of them weighed as much as me, and I was the best driver in our regiment! ”

"Agreed. Niu Yaoyang drove the pickup truck and immediately got ready to take place. Qi Hong agreed without the slightest hesitation.

There are so many officers and soldiers in the Second Division, and there are many cadres Qi Hong who can't be named, but he definitely knows Niu Yaoyang. Not only because Niu Yaoyang is the main force of the divisional basketball team, but mainly because Niu Yaoyang is a non-commissioned officer with exemplary qualities. This phenomenon is very common in the troops, where the chief cannot call the name of the major and lieutenant colonel, but he is familiar with a certain non-commissioned officer like an old friend.

The two of them immediately took their positions and got ready.

Yu Chenglin sat in the cockpit of the fighter plane, and Niu Yaoyang drove the pickup truck, all of which moved to one end of the main runway for field tests. From there, accelerate to actually determine whether the "nose landing gear" on the back of the pickup truck is feasible.

The fighter must be an experienced pilot, and it is very suitable for Yu Chenglin to go up. There is no need for Qi Hong to explain in detail, Yu Chenglin knows the meaning of Zhang Wei's plan very well and knows what to do. In order to facilitate contact, Yu Chenglin and Niu Yaoyang used a walkie-talkie to keep in touch, wore headphones, and the channel was in a state of keeping talk.

All the lights hit the main runway, the rescue command team moved to the grass next to the main runway, and Qi Hong climbed onto the roof of the fire truck and stood to observe.

Xixian Station is a large station, with a main runway length of 4,000 meters, which can take off and land all types of military aircraft in active service and all types of passenger planes of civil aviation. The secondary runways are all higher than the main runways of ordinary small airports.

Therefore, there is no problem with the running distance, and the staff officers have already made many careful calculations. Such a long runway is also the reason why the fighters stationed here rarely use parachutes for landing.

It takes 21 seconds for a pickup truck to accelerate from a standstill to 160 kilometers per hour, compared to five seconds for a J-7 fighter. What is to be done is to meet the two in the shortest distance possible when they reach 160 kilometers per hour.

The pickup truck started first, the whining diesel engine made an overwhelmed sound and accelerated, Niu Yaoyang continued to report the speed to Yu Chenglin, Yu Chenglin put the brake and pushed the accelerator by feeling, and the speed of the fighter became faster and faster. After Niu Yaoyang reported "one hundred and sixty", the light immediately stopped at that position, and Yu Chenglin looked at the speedometer, and when he crossed the light, the fighter plane was traveling at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour.

Qi Hong looked at the distance, more than two kilometers.

It doesn't work.
