"In our Air Force, the largest transport capacity is the 5 Galaxy transport aircraft. With {Dream} Little ◢.1a", he arrives at Fort Bragg, the training base of the Delta Force, and Nathan meets Beckwes again.

At this time, Beckway had already changed into a training uniform and was preparing for this operation.

In the desert near Fort Bragg, they have built a 1:1 simulation model according to the appearance of the target, and even when Nathan saw it in the sky, he was amazed, and sure enough, the army could not do anything else, there were a lot of manpower, and they were still doing such a labor-intensive thing.

At this time, Beckwees was still communicating with Nathan: "We are still short of pilots. ”

Nathan's suggestion was to take a transport plane and fly directly to the international airport in the target capital and take control there. In this case, the aircraft would have to carry a large number of people and weapons.

And 5 transport aircraft, already the largest in the United States.

A country's war machine is absolutely inseparable from heavy strategic transport aircraft, because China does not have this kind of means of transportation, so the assembly of troops during the war will be very slow, and the development of high-speed railways in China must also have the intention of war assembly.

This transport plane is already the biggest monster of this era, and any fighter is almost like an ant in front of it.

There is no need to compare the dimensions, purely from the weight, its empty weight is 169643 kg, the maximum take-off weight is 379657 kg, the maximum load is 118387 kg, and the maximum fuel weight is 150815 kg.

These data are dry, if you compare them with fighters, the empty weight of the Tomcat fighter, that is, more than ten tons, is ten times worse than it! Its maximum load capacity is enough to carry two main battle tanks, and at the same time, it has a lot of space inside.

The cargo compartment is 36 meters long, 4 meters high and 6 meters wide, and is a head-to-tail through-type with two floors, with a hatch in front of the upper cabin that can rest for 15 people, and the rear of which can carry 75 soldiers. The lower main cargo compartment can carry 270 soldiers. The cockpit and all cargo and passenger cabins are air-conditioned and pressurized.

The main options for cargo delivery are as follows: 2 Type 1 tanks, 16 3-ton trucks; 6 AH-64 Apache helicopter gunships, 10 Pershing medium-range surface-to-surface missiles and their launch vehicles, 36 standard pallets.

Now their actions, the main force, of course, is not the main battle tank, but a little guy like Sheridan, plus military off-road vehicles, then, one -5 transport aircraft, enough to carry 10 Sheridan tanks, plus more than 20 151 jeeps with anti-tank missiles and recoilless guns. As long as the position is adjusted, it is enough to stuff the -5's cabin cargo box to the brim.

That is, as long as there is only one -5 transport aircraft, it will be enough for them to launch the entire operational detachment.

-5 transport aircraft, nicknamed the Milky Way, you can tell how atmospheric it is by listening to the name.

This aircraft is the largest strategic transport aircraft in service with the US Air Force. It is capable of carrying oversized cargo around the globe and taking off and landing in relatively short distances. Ground crews can load and unload at the front and rear hatches of -5 at the same time.

The -5 and -17 are partners in the strategic transport concept of the US Air Mobility Command. With its strong carrying capacity, it is able to carry oversized cargo around the globe and take off and land in relatively short distances, providing air transportation for A, and they can reach anywhere in the world with fully armed combat troops at any time to provide field support for troops in battle.

Now, on the runway of the Delta Force's base, such a transport plane is quietly docked.

However, no one came to drive it.

Not everyone can be as resolute as the Delta Force and dare to disobey the will of the president, and the military only obeys the president's orders, which is an ironclad discipline that must not be violated.

Even if it's just pretending to be a Vietnam veteran, that's not going to work.

Therefore, even with General Rodesky's connections, after repeated lobbying, the final compromise reached with the top brass of the Air Force was only for the Air Force to provide them with transport planes.

-5 transport aircraft, which can temporarily give one to the Army, however, the personnel of the Air Force are absolutely not involved, they do not pay special attention to the hostages, they have to wait for the order of the president.

As for how the Delta Force wants to toss, it's the Delta Force's own business.

Nathan touched his nose: "In other words, I have to rely on my own ability to get this transport plane moving?" ”

Nathan is a pilot, but that doesn't mean he can fly any plane.

For example, if you have a 1 driver's license, you can only drive an automatic transmission, and you can't even play with a manual transmission, let alone a light truck with a blue plate.

And Nathan used to fly, that is, the fighter jet, high maneuverability, pay attention to the integration of man and machine, can fly all kinds of actions in the air, and now, this kind of aircraft is a heavy transport aircraft, pay attention to stability, as long as it can fly safely, that is the credit.

Nathan had never been in contact with transport planes before, and if you even count passenger planes, that is, when he first came to this era, he had engaged in passenger planes to dodge missiles, and that was already the protagonist's aura.

Now, Nathan knew he had a responsibility.

"Okay, this plane, I'll fly it." "But if there's just one, we don't have redundancy," Nathan said. ”

The course of action must take into account various circumstances, what if there is a small mechanical failure and the plane cannot fly? Are you waiting at the airport to be captured alive by the BS people? When the time comes, both sides will be red-eyed, and it is possible to be tied to a pillar and burned alive.

"We've got a -130 on hand." Beckway said.

The carrying capacity of the -130 is not strong, however, there is absolutely no problem with transporting personnel, the main thing for this aircraft is to transport equipment when it goes, and at most it will throw away all the equipment at most, and then come back in the -130.

Nathan nodded.

It seems that he is going to conquer this huge transport plane.

Fighter pilots, can still change to fly passenger planes, in later generations, even this is completely welcome, compared with the pilots of specialized civil aircraft from aviation schools, the level of fighter pilots is absolutely first-class, therefore, all airlines, that are extremely welcome to join, high prices to attract them to join.

It's just that for a person who really loves flying, he is reluctant to fly a passenger plane, and this feeling is definitely different.

"Such a big guy, I can't do it alone." Nathan said, "I'm going to need a few more crew members." In my memory, it is said that the cockpit of this aircraft has a total of 5 crew members, including the main and co-pilot, random engineers and 2 cargo handlers.
