Chapter 20: Aerial Raid

Time flies, more than 20 days have passed since Yang Luo flew solo, and it has been almost a month since Yang Luo went down to the 122nd regiment.

Yang Luo's report was handed in, and there was no punishment or reward, as if everyone had forgotten about it, and only the comrades-in-arms would occasionally talk about it after dinner.

Ye Jianlong also got his wish, officially became a knight, and was appointed as the captain of the first brigade and the captain of the first squadron, taking an important step in his career.

Ye Jianlong's military rank is major, and the administrative level is the main battalion level, and he enjoys the benefits of the main battalion level, and it is just right to be a regular battalion-level captain.

Yang Luo would also go to the aviation medical office in his spare time occasionally to chat with Zhang Qingyao, just to talk to his heart. Every time he was in Zhang Qingyao's office, Yang Luo was very relaxed and warm, and the fatigue of the day went away.

The flight training of three take-offs and landings a day, coupled with a simulated flight of take-off and landing in the system space, has made Yang Luo's flying skills improve by leaps and bounds, and his flight technology is already comparable to that of an old bird flying for one or two years.

In the afternoon of this day, Yang Luo finished his flight training, just after the landing gear landed, and he was still taxiing on the runway.

"Woo......"

The air situation alarm sounded suddenly, and the rapid siren urged the personnel on duty for combat readiness.

Yang Luo didn't pay attention to it, he was not a combat readiness duty officer, so it was not his turn to go up. What's more, he had just finished training, and he had run out of fuel, and he didn't have a weapon on board.

Yang Luo didn't bother with it, but the tower was busy.

Today's tower duty commander is Luo Chengbin, deputy commander of the training regiment, and Yang Luo has only met with him a few times.

"Is there anyone else in the communications staff officer, the combat readiness duty room and the flight briefing room?" Luo Chengbin hurriedly asked.

Luo Chengbin was going crazy, Beizhi didn't know what the hell was going on, and within half an hour, he issued two empty orders in a row.

Then the division headquarters also went crazy and sent an order that the No. 4 airspace found an unknown air situation and sent someone to check it himself.

There are still people, both groups of combat-ready duty pilots have gone up and have not yet returned, so they can only hope that someone will rest in the combat readiness duty room or the flight briefing room.

The communications staff officer glanced at the surveillance screen connecting the combat readiness duty room and the flight briefing room, and reported loudly: "Report, there is no one in the combat readiness duty room and the flight briefing room. ”

This monitoring screen is still newly installed this year, and the air situation after the year has increased significantly, so in order to know whether there is anyone in the combat readiness duty room and flight briefing room at any time, the monitoring is installed.

It is not like before, there have been many air situations, and after the combat readiness duty is up, I don't know where to find people, and I have to call one by one to find them. After installing the surveillance, I saw where there was someone, a phone call.

But today's situation is a little different, and there is no one in the combat readiness duty room and the flight briefing room.

"No one?" Luo Chengbin was crazy, and suddenly thought that 836 was preparing to take off for training, grabbed the flight log, and after confirming it, he picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "836, the training plan is terminated, and I will perform the air situation mission instead, and taxi to runway No. 4 to wait for orders." “

One person missing.

According to the regulations, at least two fighters are required to carry out air situation missions.

Now something very embarrassing happens, I find a person, where can I find another person?

The others didn't know where the cat was.

Go for them one by one? Then wait to be punished, there is a time limit for the empty order. From the moment you receive the order, you need to complete the take-off within a certain time, how can you have time to find the pilot.

"Why don't you let 801 go up again?" The communications staff officer said hesitantly, "801 has just landed, you can let him change to a fighter plane." “

That's right, Yang Luo.

Yang Luo was still taxiing on the runway, and the sound of the engine could be heard in the tower.

"Which hangar still has a ready fighter?" Luo Chengbin asked.

A staff officer immediately responded: "845 in Hangar No. 6 is full of fuel, but there are no weapons on board." “

"Inform Hangar Six to get ready for takeoff." After Luo Chengbin finished speaking, he brought the intercom to his lips, and continued: "801, the tower is calling." “

The orders given by the division headquarters are more like simulated training tasks. Because the No. 4 airspace is not on the border line, it is impossible for fighters from other countries to appear, and it is not important to carry weapons or not, the important thing is to go up immediately.

After Yang Luo heard the call, he immediately responded: "801 received, over." “

"801, you go to Hangar Six immediately and fly 845 to carry out the mission." Luo Chengbin instructed.

"801 understands."

At this time, Yang Luo had already taxied to the traction road in front of the No. 1 apron, and was braking to slow down.

There is a ground crew holding a flag in front of him, and he is guided by a flag.

After getting the order from the tower, Yang Luo directly released the brakes, gave a little oil, raised the speed, and didn't care about the flag of the ground crew, and directly controlled the No. 801 fighter to continuously cross the apron, until the apron outside the No. 6 hangar braked and stopped.

Seeing that the ground crew team headed by Gou Quan was stunned, why didn't they operate according to the regulations and ran away?

Turn off the avionics system, turn off the aero engines.

Yang Luo jumped off the boarding ladder and ran into the hangar.

As for the 801, naturally the machine will be dragged back to Hangar No. 1, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

"Is the plane ready?" As soon as Yang Luo entered the hangar, he asked before he stopped.

Empty feelings, I can't afford to delay for a moment.

The maintenance team leader immediately handed Yang Luo the handover documents, and panted: "It's ready, but it's too late to mount weapons." “

It is indeed not easy for the maintenance team, in a short period of time, to carry out pre-flight inspections and start the engine.

Yang Luo took the folder, signed the name of the fighter, threw it back to the maintenance team leader, and randomly climbed the boarding ladder to the cockpit.

For emergency take-off, in addition to handing over and signing, other procedures are omitted.

The engine had been started, and Yang Luo skillfully activated the avionics system, as well as various other instruments, and glanced at the instrument panel with both eyes.

Very good, all normal.

Everything is ready to go.

Under the command of the flag of the ground crew, the glide began.

At the same time, the on-board radio communication system was turned on, connected to the tower, and called: "Tower, 845 is ready, please instruct, over." “

Yang Luo's previous call sign was 801, but when he changed a fighter, he had to use the number of the new fighter as the call sign. Just like before, when flying the Jianjiao-7, the call sign was 811, and after changing to 801, the call sign was 801, so his current call sign is 845.

As soon as Yang Luo's voice fell, Luo Chengbin's voice sounded immediately: "845, taxi to runway No. 1, and take off in formation with 836, 836 is the long plane, you are the wingman." “

"845 understands."

Tagging from the tow lane to the runway, Yang Luo saw another fighter plane numbered 836 parked on the fourth runway, with two runways between them.

Yang Luo continued to call: "Tower, 845 is ready, request to take off." “

"836, 845, go up to 280, then I will give you specific mission information, you can take off......" Immediately, a command came from the tower, allowing takeoff and giving meteorological parameters.

"836 received, ready to take off."

"845 received, ready to take off."

Yang Luo and 836 released the brake at the same time, pushed the throttle valve, and turned on the afterburner.

Emergency take-off is not the same as normal take-off.

Normal take-off is generally not to turn on afterburner, because afterburner is very damaging to the engine, and only by taxiing to obtain take-off speed.

However, the problem of engine damage is not taken into account during emergency takeoff. In order to shorten the taxiing distance and obtain the take-off speed as soon as possible, the afterburner had to be turned on.

The two warplanes roared angrily, long tail flames erupting, and slid rapidly down the runway like arrows off the string.

Shorter distances than usual take-offs, take-off speeds are gained after 500 meters. The two of them lifted the nose of the aircraft at the same time and took off at a large elevation angle.

Take-off at large elevation angles allows you to shorten the take-off time and gain altitude in a short time. However, this emergency take-off method has a certain degree of danger, and if it is not mastered well, it is easy to have an excessive angle, and it is easy to lose lift, resulting in a crash.

The twin planes took off in formation, crisp and neat.

After gaining a certain altitude, the two turned to 280 in the climb and continued to climb.
