Chapter 388: Losing the Confrontation and Winning the Future
In the final analysis, I still care about winning or losing, and I don't want to lose too ugly. If the result of defeating Li Zhan is implemented in this confrontation against the Big Red Eagle, they will be stronger than the previous three troops no matter how you compare them.
After three confrontation drills, especially the units that came to the confrontation drill in front of them were all trump card units in the well-known air force aviation units, the confrontation drill in Beiku has become a loud signboard, and the majority of officers and men at the grassroots level believe that the confrontation drill in Beiku is a standard and a ruler to measure the combat effectiveness of various units.
The cadres of the big red eagle all stared at Liang Pengfei tightly, waiting for the final result.
Liang Pengfei glanced down at the result that must have surprised everyone, took a slight breath and swept around the cadres of both sides who attended the meeting, and said, "After the final analysis of the command and dispatch department, it is determined that the blue command plane was shot down. ”
The falcon brigade suddenly collapsed, and everyone was full of disappointment. Although I was mentally prepared, when this fact was finally confirmed, it was still difficult to accept in my heart. The captain has never been defeated, how could he lose to the little-known little brother troops?
Isn't the Big Red Eagle Division just a little brother unit?
However, an even more surprising result emerged.
Liang Pengfei said, "The final result of this confrontation exercise is that the red side wins. Deputy Division Commander Chen, congratulations. ”
Except for the director department, everyone else had a big "? ”。
There was no response for a while.
Liang Pengfei smiled and said again, "Why, you don't believe that you won, and the Eagle Falcon Brigade doesn't believe that you lost this confrontation?" Again, this confrontation was won by the Red Eagle Division, and the Blue Eagle's Brigade was defeated. ”
Hear clearly, what Commander Liang said is the red side wins!
All of them were stunned, and they were just like that.
This time, in addition to the people in the directing department who mentioned that they knew the result, their expressions did not change much, and there was another person who was very calm. But seeing that person, Yushu is in the wind, suave, Sai Pan'an, and the famous ace pilot Li Zhan, who is highly respected and loved, who likes to fly planes and like to soar at supersonic speeds, is also.
The officers and soldiers of the Eagle Falcon Brigade all looked at Li Zhan, but Li Zhan didn't seem to have any reaction, not even a look of explanation.
Compared to the shock and incomprehension of the Eagle Falcon Brigade followed by anger, the big red eagles were only shocked and puzzled and inexplicably excited.
Win? We won? How did they win, how could they win the confrontation when they were obviously knocked out, and eleven fighters? Mistaken, right?
Chen Yongkui, a heavy person, couldn't bear it anymore, and asked cautiously, "Commander Liang, what's the situation?" Of course, we hope to win, but in terms of the results, we can't be considered winning, right? That's it, ahem, of course, I don't know how the Steering Department thinks about it? ”
Liang Pengfei pointed to the Eagle Falcon Brigade, and said with a smile, "They violated the rules, they sent the Dongsan Gui fighter to temporarily incorporate the 102nd Regiment in the name of filming without the guidance and dispatch department to report the battle plan, and there is a suspicion of spying on the enemy by improper means, so after the study of the guidance and dispatch department, it was decided to cancel the results of the blue side, so you are the victors of this confrontation exercise." ”
He said, "The matter has to be seen in two parts, and the Steering and Coordination Department recognizes and supports the views of the blue side, but the blue side's behavior has violated the rules of this confrontation exercise, so this decision was made." ”
I understand everything, but the victors are not as excited as they imagined, they are just bored - this is how the victory came.
It's better to lose with dignity.
The unexpected, unexpected, and unreasonable outcome is difficult for both sides to accept.
The next day, Li Zhan accompanied Cheng Da to visit the J-16, sat on the commuter car to the outfield, and waited for a high-flying J-7E to go away, Cheng Da withdrew his gaze from a distance and asked, "The command and dispatch department finally decided that you were shot down by me, are you very unconvinced?" ”
Li Zhan said, "If I drive a Jian-7, I will not be convinced." ”
"Oh? You mean J-7 is even better than J-11? Cheng Da was surprised, "This is a subversive view of Captain Li." ”
Li Zhan said solemnly, "I know the J-10, and I personally think that the close-range combat performance of this aircraft can be ranked among the top in the world, especially the improved J-10B type, and the advanced avionics system has become a multiplier of combat effectiveness." The J-11 series has no models that can compete with it. ”
"Huh? It's unexpected, you have such a high evaluation of J-10. Cheng Da said.
Li Zhan said, "Seeking truth from facts, entering the close-range combat J-11 has no advantage in the face of J-10." Of course, from a purely technical point of view. At least I think that most of the pilots of the Eagle Falcon Brigade can press you to fight in the J-11B. ”
Cheng Da said, "I admit this point, my soldiers have not fully played the advantages of Jian-10. The advantage of the J-11B outside the line of sight is obvious, and you have made good use of this advantage. ”
"The avionics system of the J-11B is very different, and it is not much better than your J-10B. The disadvantage of J-11 in the face of J-10 is that the aircraft is too heavy, and the directivity of the nose is not as good as that of J-10, which is a great loss in close-range combat. Li Zhan said.
Cheng Da asked, "What about J-7, do you think J-7 can fight with J-10 in close-range combat?" ”
"The J-7E and subsequent models are no problem at all, as long as they enter the state of dog fighting, there are definitely not many aircraft that can form an overwhelming advantage over the J-7." Li Zhan said with certainty.
Cheng Da pondered, as if recalling the performance and actual combat performance of the J-7E and J-7G, nodded slightly and said, "I agree with this point of view." ”
"Then the director department ruled that you lost the confrontation in violation of the law, don't you feel wronged?" Cheng Da asked.
Li Zhan smiled and said, "I knew this was the result before the fight. ”
"I'd like to hear you say that there must be other more important considerations in this, right?" After getting out of the car, Cheng Da asked very seriously.
Li Zhan shook his head helplessly, "Of course there is, but it is difficult for many people to agree, I spoke to my soldiers for more than an hour last night, but the morale is still very low." ”
"Sooner or later, I'll figure it out. In fact, such a victory is really better than defeat for us, there are only two of them, the first place was taken out of violation, and the second place became the first place in the order, what do you call it. Cheng Da said with a wry smile.
Li Zhan said, "The detailed summary and analysis are very clear, and the evaluation given to you is very pertinent, and the command and dispatch department affirms your combat tactics." In fact, I personally admit that the Great Red Eagle was the first threatening opponent our Falcon Brigade encountered. ”
Cheng Da sighed lightly and said, "Let's talk about it." ”
"I want to try to downplay the competitive nature of the Beiku confrontation drill." Li Zhan gave an even more surprising answer, and said in a deep voice, "When I realized that the Beiku confrontation drill had become the number one brand of simulated confrontation in the whole army, I began to think about the true meaning it should contain. ”
"The purpose of the formation of the Eagle Falcon Brigade is to act as a whetstone for fraternal units, sharpen the troops, and improve the combat capability of the troops. At the beginning, I thought that using all necessary means to make any participating troops lose as ugly and miserable as possible, would help improve their battlefield awareness. Later I found out that the troops gradually developed a desire to win at all costs. That's right, a unit that does not have an insatiable desire for victory will not be able to exert its full combat effectiveness. However, if you blindly pursue victory in a simulated blue army, you will lose your foothold, and the purpose of the simulated blue army is to be a good whetstone, and the fundamental point should be how to sharpen the brother troops so that the brother troops have the ability to compete for victory. ”
Cheng Da said, "I should understand. The quest for victory should be in the realm of fighting spirit, but you are talking about the category of combat training and tactics based on the simulation of the Blue Army. ”
"It is worthy of being the chief of staff, and it sums it up well." Li Zhan smiled, "That's why we shouted the slogan that defeating opponents is more important than defeating teammates." ”
Cheng Da said seriously, "Your idea is terrible. Just imagine, a force that doesn't care about winning or losing, but makes deadly moves, it's scary to think about. ”
Li Zhan said, "If you are in full bloom, the spring breeze will come." ”
"Yes, many people understand this truth, but very few people really put the heart into it." Cheng Da said with emotion.
This is not a trivial matter, and it has a bearing on the collective honor of the troops and the vital interests of the vast number of officers and men.
Winning the confrontation drill and winning the year-end merit evaluation and award are indispensable.
Moreover, the Beiku confrontation drill is a combat training brand directly under the Air Division, and the results of each confrontation drill must be reported for the record, which is related to the collective honor of the troops.
Li Zhan said, "The soldiers of our brigade are still quite convinced of me, otherwise I would not dare to risk the condemnation of the world to do this." ”
"Yes, without the support of the higher-level leaders and the trust of the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level, this matter is really difficult to handle."
Cheng Da said, "I have always wondered why you want to send the plane to the Zhongkuchang station in one more move, and you also used a cover identity to follow us, which is obviously a snake to add to the action." Now I understand, you kid did it on purpose. ”
"Yes, you have to give the Steering Department a good reason, don't you? Actually, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to lose, so I had to make this decision. Li Zhan said sincerely, "I must let everyone understand where the focus of future work is." ”
Cheng Da was so angry that his head was about to smoke, and he couldn't speak for a long time. After thinking about it carefully, yes, if you don't violate the rules, won't the Falcon Brigade win? In fact, everyone knows that the real victor is the Eagle Brigade.
"Listen to your tone, are you leaving?" Cheng Da suddenly reacted, "There is a smell of arranging the future." ”
Li Zhan spread his hands and said, "The revolutionary army can't help himself. ”
Cheng Da smiled and said, "Let me guess, are you going to participate in the Flying Shark Training?" ”
"Guess right, what, you're also participating?" Li Zhan asked, "Are those who are allowed to participate?" ”
Cheng Da smiled and said, "Who told you that you can't participate in the Jian-10?" I'll tell you the truth, I've already signed up, and I'll take part in the assessment after the all-army competition in December. ”
The all-army all-element assessment in December was referred to by the officers and men as a big contest, and it had a strong flavor of the 60s and 70s.
Seeing that Li Zhan was puzzled, Cheng Da explained with a smile, "You forgot, the J-15 has the ability to receive fuel in the air, and I have at least one more skill than you, so you haven't done air refueling training yet, have you?" ”
"Yes, I was supposed to go to the top base with you for training, but I can't leave without a lot of work in the army." Li Zhan said.
Cheng Da said, "The Flying Shark training camp is the top training camp in the whole army, the requirements are beyond imagination, there have been three phases in front, more than 600 people have signed up, do you know how many people are left in the end?" ”
Li Zhan waited for Cheng Da's next step.
"Eight." Cheng Dabi came out with "8" sign language, "Only eight people went to the end and became members of the Flying Shark Force, more than 600 people, that is more than 600 pilots carefully selected by the aviation unit of the whole army!" ”
Li Zhan's brows suddenly furrowed, "Is it so difficult to drive a carrier-based fighter?" ”
"You'll know when the time comes." Cheng Da affirmed, "You like to soar at supersonic speeds, and it is precisely the carrier-based fighter that requires the slower the better." ”
This phrase should be understood like this: the slower the landing, the better.
It was the first time Li Zhan had heard of the specific elimination rate of the Flying Shark training. Seventy-five to one, and this is still the elimination rate on the basis of the army-wide careful selection.
"The commanders of the all-army aviation unit deliberately hated the flying shark for training." Li Zhan said with a smile.
Cheng Da looked at Li Zhan in surprise and gave a thumbs up, "Your thinking angle is very peculiar, when others hear this elimination rate, the first thing they think of is the degree of difficulty, but what you think of is the attitude of other troops towards the Flying Shark training." ”
"But isn't it, do you think about it, they are all top students in various units, gritting their teeth and stomping their feet to endure the pain and send their love to your HNA Flying Shark training to support you in building carrier-based fighter units, but as a result, you said that your soldiers are not qualified, and you say who can stand this, it's strange if you don't get angry." Li Zhan said with a smile.
Cheng Da shook his head with a wry smile and said, "That's right, that's not wrong at all." When I was training at the top base, I heard that even some of the leaders of the air division had a lot of complaints about the Flying Shark training, thinking that HNA had gone too far. ”
But isn't it, my Air Force Big Brother has worked hard to train the top top students, you said that you want to engage in carrier-based fighter units, big brother in the whole army in a game of chess, I support your talents, but you not only pick and choose, but also fight back The vast majority of people say that these people fail, do you think I can be happy?
Didn't there be a high command suppressing it, really thinking that the air division would spare no effort to support it? Air aviation and naval aviation are inherently contradictory in terms of strategic use, do you really think that aircraft taking off from warships cannot be assigned to the establishment of the air force?
For a long time, there was only the army air force and no air force!
"Don't talk about these bad things." Cheng Da waved his hand helplessly and said, "Whether I can go to the end smoothly or not, I am also very suspenseful, I really don't have much certainty." I have more modified subjects than you guys, and the time is very tight when I come and go. ”
Li Zhan and Cheng Da walked to the tarmac of the J-16 No. 16161 and said, "Modify together? There should be a separate modification training class, right? ”
"No, everyone is being trained in modification at the same time, the time is the same, if you can complete it, you will enter the next stage, and if you can't finish it, you will roll it back to the original unit." Cheng Da said.
Li Zhan said, "It doesn't make sense. ”
"There are a lot of unreasonable places in the flying shark training, don't talk about it, don't talk about it, it's sad." Cheng Da waved his hand and said, making Li Zhan seriously suspect that he had been eliminated, and the conclusion drawn from this analysis was that this old boy would drive a J-11 or even a J-15.
He pointed to the J-16 in front of him and asked, "This is our successful imitation of the Su 30?" ”
"It should be said that it is the Chinese version of the Su-30." Li Zhan said with a smile.
These are all open secrets, and even although the Russian side clearly requested that it should not be copied and not sold when the Su-27SK was purchased, the great Chinese military workers were stunned to copy it and the blue is better than the blue, but it did not violate the "no sale" clause.
The Russian side was forced to acquiesce in the overall internal and external environment, so it formed a practice - to buy some back and localize them.
And all are better than the original.
Li Zhan said, "The power is stronger, the Taihang used is a strengthened version, the thrust is greater, the maximum bomb load has reached 12 tons, and in extreme cases, it is no problem to carry 13 tons." The most noteworthy is the new domestic active phased array radar and avionics system. ”
"Tell me more about it. You spotted our main forces two hundred kilometers away, relying on this radar, right? Cheng Da said.
Li Zhan nodded slightly, "Yes, I used it as a small early warning aircraft." Theoretically, the maximum detection range of fighters reached 300 km, but in practice the effective range was between 200 and 250 km. I saw it when you flew together, and I could see it very clearly, but the three planes you took with you did not detect it, which means that the detection of low-altitude targets cannot reach this distance. ”
"I understand, AWACS command aircraft fighter, you simulate three roles in one aircraft." Cheng Da said.
Li Zhan said with a smile, "If I had an AWACS command plane, I wouldn't want to make myself work so hard." ”
"What about avionics? What are the features and benefits? Cheng Da asked.
"Tactical Intelligence Interaction System." Li Zhan said, "I'll give you a detailed information when I go back, this tactical intelligence interactive system is a combat support system project that we have engaged in, and it is still a very rudimentary system, and it can only be effective in the Beiku area. ”
Cheng Da said solemnly, "Okay, this is the multiplier of combat effectiveness." ”
The two looked up and down around the 1616 J-16, and finally sat in her cockpit to study, Li Zhan knew everything. As long as it is helpful for the development of fraternal troops, he said it in detail.
Cheng Da asked, "What do you think of this plane?" ”
Li Zhan said, "A very good fighter-bomber, I like to fly her outside the line of sight and gossip to fight, but I absolutely do not want to get into close-range combat with her, especially if the opponent is the same air fighter as the Jian-10." ”
"How did I hear that you think the J-10 is a multi-role fighter, how did you change your opinion?" Cheng Da asked.
Li Zhan asked rhetorically, "What kind of fighter do you say the F-16 belongs to?" Air supremacy or multi-purpose? ”
Cheng Da was stunned for a moment.
Is this a problem, it seems to be a problem, I don't know when people began to forget that the F-16 is actually an air superiority fighter.
"The F-16 became a multi-role fighter after the disappearance of the Soviet Union, and the positioning of this fighter in the US Air Force was the air supremacy fighter in the development place, which was used to compete for air supremacy with the Warsaw Pact countries, and the target was the Soviet Union's MiG-29. In the international situation at that time, both sides of the Cold War needed a large number of cheap fighters for consumption in the battle for air supremacy, and the F-16 did this job. The USSR is gone, the opponents of the United States are gone, and so many weapons and equipment are suddenly gone, what should I do? Change, change it to adapt to the future military situation. The US military is the only one, and they began to think about dealing with threats under the new situation, such as dealing with certain countries in the Middle East, whether they need to fight for air supremacy, and they have no territorial airspace at all. It was only at this time that the F-16 began to take on a variety of missions, and the mission led to change, so it became a multi-role fighter. Li Zhan said a few words briefly.
Cheng Da figured it out, "You mean that J-10 will also be such a development direction?" ”
Li Zhan smiled and said, "Yes." J-10 was developed in the eighties, what era is it now? Don't forget, in the 80s, we were ready to fight Big Brother. ”
"I'm convinced, Li Zhan, in my heart, I'm really convinced of you, I learned a lot more from this confrontation drill than I lost." Cheng Da said convincingly.
"Haha, it's enough for you to use one and a half tricks after learning my tricks and a half."
