"Level 1 combat readiness!"

Chayol gave an order to the 277th Flying Squadron of the Air Force of Country M.

The squadron was not stationed at the Fence Forest base, but at the Digosia base, thousands of kilometers away, deep in the Indo-Duk Ocean.

This base is the only and extremely important strategic base of country M in the Indian Ocean.

The geographical location is extremely important, 2,000 kilometers to the east is Southeast Asia, 1,000 kilometers to the north to India, and 3,000 kilometers to the west to reach the Persian Gulf, an important energy trade route, which is particularly suitable for long-range strategic bombers.

After years of renovation and expansion, the base can even accommodate aircraft carrier battle groups for rest and recuperation, and a large number of fighters, tankers, and transport planes are stationed in peacetime, and there are attack nuclear submarines stationed for training all year round.

Surrounded by the sea and far from land and trade routes, it was also an excellent testing ground for weapons and equipment.

1,000 kilometers away, the South Indo-Duyang Ocean is a well-known space cemetery.

Because it is inaccessible, there are almost no islands and human habitation, so those rockets that fail to launch, satellites that run out of life, will choose to crash there.

Because of this, the 277th Flying Squadron is also stationed here for training all year round.

The level of the squadron is very high, and the squadron leaders are all with the rank of colonel, which shows the peculiarity of the squadron.

The squadron has always been a combat unit of the 'Advanced Aviation Aircraft Combat Test'.

In other words.

Any of the latest and most advanced aircraft in country M will be handed over to this squadron to conduct various tests that are close to actual combat at the Digosia base, which is particularly convenient and secret.

There are millions of square kilometers of sea area in the South Indo-Du Ocean, and there is not a single ship or island, so it is naturally the best thing to use for weapons and equipment testing.

Like the fourth-generation stealth bombers, stealth fighters, etc., they have been tested by the squadron, and now, the fighters equipped by the squadron are already the fifth generation.

A generation of scientific research, a generation of testing, and a generation of equipment.

This is the consistent process of the world's military powers.

What is being developed in the laboratory is always the most advanced, but the quality and performance are not reliable, and all kinds of brain-opening scientific research concepts and high-tech that ordinary people can't think of will be tried.

It is being tested secretly on a small scale, and various modifications are perfected, the quantity is not much, the quality is guaranteed, and it can be used to perform tasks, but it is not 100% perfect, and there will be various modifications and improvements in the later stage.

The performance of large-scale equipment is not particularly advanced and powerful, but it is mature in design, technology, equipment and other aspects, and can produce equipment on a large scale and in large quantities.

Therefore.

When the fourth-generation stealth fighter has been equipped with country M on a large scale, and has participated in many actual battles.

Naturally, the fifth-generation fighters equipped with the 277th Flight Squadron can also carry out the mission, which is really a very small number and a high level of secrecy.

And tonight.

Patin Chayol made the squadron a rare entry into the first level of combat readiness.

This has never happened before.

The last time the squadron was brought to combat readiness was seven years ago.

At that time, the squadron was secretly testing a new stealth helicopter.

In order to airlift special forces, go across the border and kill the terrorist boss Ladlan.

To achieve safety and concealment, the active helicopter simply cannot do it, and the way of using the empty head of the transport aircraft will be easier to expose, and the size of the transport aircraft is so large that it is really impossible to hide.

The squadron was ordered to participate in that mission, and although it ensured the success of the mission and took out the lantern, it was after all a newly developed stealth helicopter, and the quality was still not very reliable.

The operation was very quiet, allowing the special forces to successfully infiltrate quietly, but one of them crashed in the courtyard of the lantern house due to a sudden malfunction, and had no choice but to blow it up.

That mission was the only mission of the 277th Flight Squadron to prepare for combat first and then to actual combat.

After that, their actual combat tasks came as they were told.

During the test of stealth fighters, they also deliberately flew into the airspace of other countries without saying hello and directly intruded into the airspace of other people's air combat exercises, so as to test whether the other side's various radars, photoelectric infrared sensors, etc., would detect stealth fighters.

Although this kind of 'extreme death'-like weapon test is very domineering and shameless, it is also a typical 'master of art and boldness'.

So where are you going to do tonight?

After receiving the order for the 'first-class combat readiness' mission, the whole squadron was extremely excited.

At night.

A large enclosed base disguised as an artificial rockery is brightly lit.

Rockeries can also be said to be mountains.

It is built by pouring reinforced concrete, and the thinnest part is more than two meters thick, and it is a multi-layer structure, with a steel plate interlayer, an anti-infrared and anti-electromagnetic isolation layer in the middle, etc.

Coupled with the soil and trees covered by the rockery, the current human civilization on the earth, and any existing investigation methods, cannot gain insight into what is going on inside the mountain.

In fact, the base is a highly concentrated aviation factory, with all kinds of high-precision equipment.

Many of these countries cannot afford to build, and the difficult microwave anechoic chamber is also here.

It is not difficult to isolate any electromagnetic signal in the entire darkroom, and it is enough to cover a large number of electromagnetic radiation absorbing materials.

However, the difficulty is to be able to simulate various electromagnetic waves of different wavelengths, different frequencies and different powers, so as to facilitate the testing of electromagnetic radiation signal characteristics and radar reflection area of the aircraft using various shapes and designs and various fuselage materials.

Because of this, the design of stealth fighters is not difficult, after all, what other people's stealth fighters look like, just imitate the design.

But if you want to know why the nose, fuselage, wings, vertical tail, air intake, etc., are designed like this, you can be annoyed.

Others have been designed and tested thousands of times, and have been revised and perfected over and over again.

As for the fuselage material......

If you can't get up close, you won't have to know what kind of paint or absorber material is used.

Every time you test and revise, you spend money.

A small change, after dozens of tests, is gone.

Who can withstand a poor country and a weak country with weak industrial and scientific and technological strength?

Therefore, there are still many countries that can design and manufacture second-generation fighters, but when it comes to third-generation fighters, there are not many, and fourth-generation aircraft are even rarer, and high-tech is not something that all countries can play.

And the 277th squadron is considered inhumane.

In addition to the anechoic chamber, they also have a number of advanced test rooms.

Of course.

The protagonists of tonight are two fifth-generation fighters placed in dust-free, static-free, constant temperature and humidity hangars.

They have a resounding code name, Vultures.

The people of M took such a code name because they hoped that this type of fighter could be like a large bird of prey vulture.

It can not only spread its wings and fly high, soar at will, but also pass through low-altitude mountains and hunt accurately.

Correspondingly, it is hoped that the fighters can have excellent flight performance at different flight altitudes, and can enter the enemy territory as if no one is in the land and hunt at will, instead of being like some fighters who are partial to the discipline and cannot do all.

This fighter must not only be high-altitude and high-speed, but also maneuverable and strong at medium and low altitudes, and also have super stealth performance, can hold a huge variety of ammunition, and has a good range.

In short, this fighter is built for 'perfection'.

The vulture fighter, codenamed 'YF-55', condensed the most cutting-edge technology of country M's aerospace.

Whether it is airframe design, avionics, materials, technology, and system software, all are the latest technology.

To date, a number of flight tests have been carried out, and pilots have also conducted tests of the corresponding weapons drop.

The two vulture fighters had simulated air battles with fourth-generation stealth fighters and scored an astonishing result of 0:12.

Omnidirectional stealth, extreme control, intelligent avionics, huge bomb capacity, ultra-long range......

In the 277th squadron, which tested many advanced fighters, they all felt that this fighter was absolutely invincible in the world.

At present, there is absolutely no air defense radar in the world that is capable of detecting it.

After all, even their country M does not yet have effective means to detect it.

Because of its excellent stealth performance, the vulture fighter had to be mounted with a Lombard lens to use the principle of polyhedral refraction to amplify the radar signal so that the fighter could be discovered.

If it is not hung, the warning radar of the base and the air traffic control radar of the airport will not know where the vulture fighters are at all.

It is precisely because of such excellent performance that the fourth-generation stealth fighter was killed when it saw where the 'enemy' was during the confrontation exercise.

They are like assassins soaring through the air, invisible and coming and going quickly.

The third-generation fighter, entering supersonic cruise, also needs to turn on afterburner, at the cost of increasing fuel consumption and depleting engine life, in exchange for the fighter transonic flight, at most 15 minutes.

Although the fourth-generation fighter can cruise at supersonic speed without afterburner, it is still limited by fuel reserves and engine performance, and does not dare to be too capricious, cruising for half an hour at most.

But these two vulture fighters have achieved a 'full supersonic flight' in the true sense, and the range is so large that they have no friends, and they can fly 5,000 kilometers at a time, which can be called bombers.

Many third- and fourth-generation fighters in service in various countries are actually very short-legged, and they take off with full load of ammunition and fuel, and their range is only more than 2,000 kilometers, and the combat radius is only 1,000 kilometers considering the amount of fuel that is alternated and landed.

In other words, if many of the fighters in service do not dare to fly 1,000 kilometers away to fight, if they do not have ammunition, auxiliary fuel tanks, or refueling in the air, the fighters in service in various countries will not dare to fly 1,000 kilometers away to fight.

However, the two vulture fighters took off with a full load, flew at supersonic speeds to a distance of 2,000 kilometers, and conducted a series of air-to-sea target tests before returning home.

With such a terrifying flight endurance, it can be called a long-range bomber.

If it weren't for the USS Carson aircraft carrier battle group, they would have been abused by an even more awesome aircraft.

The opponent can fly several times the speed of sound at any time, and can maneuver quickly and agilely, and can easily disappear without a trace.

Although there was no direct firefight, it was enough to make country M realize that its vulture fighter was not the first in the universe.

It is invincible on this earth, but it is estimated that it is still incomparable with the mysterious aliens.

Of course.

tyrannizing any country on the planet, it is naturally a piece of cake, no pressure.

And tonight......

Level 1 Combat Readiness!

This is naturally to make the vulture fighters ready for actual combat.

The camouflage clothing was removed, and the snow-white cold light, similar to the shadowless lamp in the hospital operating room, was reflected on the dark gray fighter plane.

They have a very sci-fi version of the shape, compared with the fighters in service in various countries, its biggest feature is that there is no vertical tail.

From nose to tail, it is a typical wing-body fusion, and it is smooth and dreamlike.

All ground crews immediately conducted various pre-flight tests for the two fighters in an orderly manner in accordance with the combat regulations.

In the process of testing, it naturally also includes refueling and hanging bombs, weapon power-up, and so on.

After the battle preparations were completed, the two fighters slowly left the hangar and came to the gate of the base.

The gate has three floors, and the outside is a camouflage layer, which looks like a hillside, with grass and trees.

In the middle is a bulletproof and explosion-proof layer to resist attacks such as ground-penetrating bombs.

The innermost layer is an isolation and protective layer, which is not only bulletproof and fireproof, but also prevents infrared electromagnetic signal leakage.

So far.

Two vulture fighters, ready to attack.

Like a bloodthirsty assassin lurking in the night, ready to rise into the air and cause slaughter.

And the other side.

Integrated Command Hall of the Bahrain Base.

Patin Chayol, after giving the order for combat readiness of the first level, locked himself up in the commandant's office.

While the Vulture was preparing for battle, he was working hard with many generals to lobby the president and his think tank.

The Battle of Balard was all thanks to Wu Jie.

The nuclear warhead is still in his hands, and this guy is a scientific research wizard, so he must be killed!

What's more, this actual combat mission can also fully test the performance of the vulture fighter, whether it can ignore the enemy's air defense system, and whether it can easily enter and exit the land of China.

As for the risks......

There is a certain risk for vulture fighters to penetrate deep into enemy territory and bravely penetrate behind enemy lines.

It is not ruled out that because of its own sudden failure, its whereabouts will be exposed or it will crash, just like when a stealth helicopter was used to kill the lantern.

But to say that it was detected by detection and intercepted by air defense, it is simply impossible.

The fourth-generation fighters of country M have broken through many times, and none of them have been detected.

The Vulture fighter, which is already the fifth generation, what is there to be afraid of?

In a word.

If you don't kill Wu Jie again and keep him for the New Year?
