Chapter 1622: Firebird Fighter

According to the whole plan, and according to the flight commander of the radar link and radio contact along the way, the four regiments were divided into different parts, and the fighter regiment stationed in the early stage was the smallest number, and it was also the fastest flying, at about 102 planes, compared with some medium and heavy reconnaissance planes and bombers, the landing distance was very short, the stopping was good, it was the first batch to land, and it was also the shortest landing time, and it was expected that the landing could be completed in a maximum of 40 minutes.

At this time, the tower, there is no superfluous sound, everyone is waiting patiently, only the noise of the radar turned on and the sound of the radio station, according to the requirements of the air force standards, the fighter landing, must have air power protection, even in the case of determining safety, although the airport has perfect air defense, but the best weapon against the aircraft, is always the aircraft.

The airport was stationed before 8 fighters, on the one hand, to test whether the runway of the airport is in place, on the other hand, for this, they are ready to take off, 300 kilometers of distance, for fighters with a speed of about 650 kilometers per hour, that is, half an hour, they are transferred from Yinchuan to fly, after thousands of kilometers, the fuel is only one-third at most, there is no way to stay for a long time, must land at the fastest speed, so the fighter must take off in advance, fortunately, only 3 runways land, These fighters can take off from other free runways without occupying them.

"It's coming!" A radar staff officer reported loudly. On the radar screen, there are a large number of light spots, the position, is the position where the fighter plane flies, the radar officer quickly began to calculate, the final result is that the aircraft speed is very fast, at least more than 650 kilometers, he is a senior radar officer, a little comparison of the radar reflected waves, it is analyzed, it is the main fighter of the Chinese Air Force, the Firebird fighter, but also the main aircraft of this flight regiment.

This one was only in service in 1914, and it was not completely reequipped by the end of 1916, but every one of his flight regiments was equipped with a very high evaluation of him, and it was a fighter that was very popular with pilots, with a single engine and a single seat, with a 25 mm cannon and such a powerful weapon, the fuselage could hang a 250 kg bomb, the speed was extremely fast, the maximum speed could reach 740 kilometers, and the most important thing was that the maneuverability was quite good, whether it was the ability to climb, the turning radius, or the ability to dive, In the simulation training, the formation of 2 planes shot down at least 12 Hummingbird fighters in just 3 hours, and the advantage of the fighters was quite obvious.

It is precisely because of this classic aircraft that China is currently equipped with 2,800 aircraft, and in the future it will spread across more than 40 fighter regiments in China, and the maximum number will reach more than 4,000. Fighter generation is very fast, take the firebird to replace the hummingbird and kingfisher, they as a high and fast main aircraft, each is only equipped with about 1200 aircraft, in the fighter aircraft equipped at that time, there are even early Northwest three and four fighters, because the hummingbird and kingfisher are stronger than the three and four, but not so strong that it is irresistible, under certain conditions, other models can be used.

However, as soon as the Firebird came out, it basically dominated the world, 2 planes were grouped to deal with 12 planes, even if it was only 4 planes at one time, after deducting some of the reasons for piloting, the gap was very large, the army was almost completely replaced, and the navy also used their aircraft carrier aircraft, land-based fighters, basically him, so the replacement ratio was quite large, from 1914 to 1916, a total of 2800 were produced, and the rest may need to be replaced in 8 months.

Finally came, everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and at the same time, they were nervous, it was a mule or a horse to come out for a walk, they had been at the airport for more than half a month as the personnel stationed in the early stage, and half a month's efforts were finally accepted. Fighter jets are always the fastest, especially in a place like China where radars are everywhere, and there is no need to take into account the problem of encounters, there are radars to guide the direction along the way, and without considering the problem of trekking, they almost fly directly towards the airport, without the slightest detour. Sure enough, 20 minutes later, they were no more than 100 kilometers away from the airport, at this time, at the tower, Wang Diwu began to give orders, 8 have already been prepared, have been equipped with live-fire aircraft, whistling from the runway at the same time, they are not the latest Firebird, but the Hummingbird fighter of the previous generation of Firebird, and Firebird has a considerable gap, but it is also a more practical fighter, under the premise of full load, with the most economical speed, at least can do more than 10 hours of escort in the sky.

This is enough, even if 300 aircraft, half of which are super large aircraft with a take-off weight of more than 60 tons, but after the overall planning of the northwest, they will land within 7 hours at most, and enter different hangars, even if it is a temporary hangar, it also has strong protection, at least can resist 250 kg of aerial bombs, which is first-class in field airports, in this era, the planes of other countries in the world are still in the primary state, Being able to take away 150 kg of aerial bombs is already considered a high bomb load, and these field airfields are absolutely safe.

The plane was gradually approaching, about 40 kilometers away, Wang Diwu picked up the walkie-talkie on the command platform and began to shout: "Dong Yu Dong Yu, I am the Eagle's Nest, please answer when you hear it!" ”

"Dong Mi heard, everything is normal!"

"Please land according to the second item of the prescribed plan!"

"Hear, land according to the second item of the prescribed plan!"

Clear voice, a distance of 40 kilometers crossed, directly connected to the commander of the opposing flight regiment, the intercom system has just been developed, installed on the aircraft, this is a sharp weapon for commanding operations, can cover a range of about 15 kilometers, in this range, is the main attack range of the current fighter plane, but such a command system, can only be installed by a large group, most of the aircraft are equipped with the receiving end, can only obey orders, and can not communicate.

The tower faces the intercom system, because of the addition of the antenna and so on, the enveloping range has reached 40 kilometers, and even the commander of the fighter flight regiment can also contact the tower, the head of the fighter flight regiment is Chen She, he is Wang Diwu's old subordinate, when Wang Diwu was the head of the regiment, he was the leader of the most elite flight brigade under Wang Diwu, and later after Wang Diwu was transferred, it was he who was recommended, and he also started from the deputy commander, and now he is already the head of the regiment.

40 kilometers, there are still a few minutes to go, Wang Diwu and Chen Shi briefly exchanged a few words, and then the landing operation began, a regiment of more than 100 plus aircraft, of course, it is impossible to gather all together, generally speaking, it is to act according to the brigade, and at present, 3 planes are landed at one time, that is, half a squadron and half a squadron will land.

More than 600 kilometers of Firebird, flying rapidly, and then landing, relative to bombers and reconnaissance aircraft, the quality of fighter pilots is the strongest, the Air Force from the pilot school, first hired a group of flight enthusiasts, these are basically after 200-300 hours of flight training, even if it is only the lightest biplane slow aircraft, but also basically mastered the flying skills, they will enter the professional field, through 300-500 hours of primary training aircraft learning, and finally grouping, Among all the groups, fighter pilots are the most preferred selection, as long as the horizontal line is crossed, it is OK, only the fighters pick the remaining personnel, reconnaissance aircraft, bombers can be selected, as for transport aircraft, that is the last, some transport pilots, in an emergency, can be directly drawn from the senior flight enthusiasts, as a period of time after the co-pilot, can operate independently.

"Not bad!" Wang Diwu took the walkie-talkie and said to Chen She, at present, the fighter regiment has landed 8 times, each of which is a very perfect landing, whether it is the flight attitude, stopping posture, or stopping distance, it is quite outstanding, Chen Shi is worthy of being the most outstanding flight commander he brought out, and his soldiers are trustworthy.

"Of course, old leader, we are together again, this time I don't know if there is a fight!" Chen Shi was placed in the last batch to land, so he was still hovering in the sky, he belonged to the sequence of the Western Xinjiang Flying Army, this time the flight regiment to carry out the mission in Kazakhstan was drawn from the many flying regiments in the Western Xinjiang, according to discipline, they did not even know what tasks they were going to perform before they arrived here.

Wang Diwu knew that Chen Shi was a warmonger, and he basically thought about fighting a war every day, but unfortunately in China, the air force was a secret unit, whether it was fighting against Japan, Southeast Asia, or even Australia, the planes were all ready for war, but in the end, the planes still did not dispatch, and when everyone else had caught the battle and even made a lot of military achievements, the air force still had no gains, which made the majority of commanders and fighters very anxious.

"I'm afraid that this time, you still won't be able to get a fight!"

"Old leader, what did you say?"

"Alright, let's talk about it!" Wang Diwu said calmly. This time, the action is kept secret before it is opened, even if Chen She's level is enough, it is not suitable to talk in the walkie-talkie, this is discipline, although Wang Diwu doesn't understand, isn't it a walkie-talkie for double-play talk, is it difficult for someone to listen to it, but he still follows the discipline, even if Chen Shi asks again and again, he doesn't tell, which makes Chen Shi very helpless, as a senior officer of the Air Force, he understands discipline, since Wang Diwu doesn't tell him, no matter how much he begs, it's useless, fortunately, Wang Diwu agreed to land and say, Anyway, there is no hurry for such a moment and a half, most of the planes have landed, at most 10 minutes, he also went down, Chen Shi put his mind on the command, commanding the last plane, and landed smoothly.
