Chapter Forty-Four: Death in the Air, Russell!

More than 600 years ago, the famous air combat theory master Ferguson first put forward the theory of the supremacy of air combat, and successfully gathered most of the fighter maneuvers together, with a total of 148 difficulties from A to F, which has also become a model of air combat system, and is still one of the important criteria for evaluating pilots.

Officially, because of the emergence of Ferguson, air combat can become the absolute main force of the military today, often a federation, or even a force is strong, depending on the number of outstanding pilots, as well as the performance of fighters.

Therefore, Ferguson became the first person to be remembered in the history of air combat.

Two hundred years after Ferguson's death, the first remembered master of air combat was born, his name was Barrot, he was the first person to shoot down a total of 6oo fighters in air combat, and thus the second pilot of that era, during that period, many pilots of later civilizations emerged, such as Mirito, Cortizo and so on.

After Barrot retired, he collected 148 standard flight maneuvers from Ferguson into a set of piloting tutorials, called "Barrot Piloting Tutorial", which is still known as the most standard piloting tutorial and is still used by major air combat academies.

Of course, after so many years of exhibition, "Barot Piloting Tutorial" has been simplified by many forces, so that the pilot can complete the corresponding flight action with higher efficiency, so all kinds of piloting theories have emerged in an endless stream, however, these piloting theories have not been made public, but have been hidden by major forces, the most significant is the seven major air combat divisions, such as: Qianfeng Air Combat Division's "Botu Driving Theory", Baiyuan Air Combat Division's "Bionic Driving Theory" and so on.

In class, Chen Weibin talked endlessly about "The History of Air Warfare", while the students in class C in the audience sat crookedly, not very interested, and many students didn't even come to class at all.

This is the current state of Class C, Chen Weibin was helpless, but when he saw that Yuan Ye in the corner was still listening carefully and recording carefully, he was slightly moved, fortunately, there are still students in this class who cherish the fruits of his labor.

So, he continued: "Speaking of Barrot, we have to say another person, and that is Russell! ”

When Chen Weibin said this, his eyes were missing from the podium, and the students in the audience were still doing what they were doing? Obviously, these guys are still chicks in air combat, and they don't know much about the famous Russell.

This point did not surprise Chen Weibin, if there was anyone in the audience who was surprised, then he would be strange, because it showed that the person who was surprised already had a lot of understanding of air combat.

"Barrot and Russell, in the eyes of people, completely represent two extremes, if Barot is compared to a god, then Russell should be called a demon." When Chen Weibin said this, his eyes began to become serious.

"Russell was born in 115O, born in the Roland Air Division, joined the Nasser Flying Group under the Roland Air Division at the age of 16, in two years, shot down 418 enemy planes, at the age of 18, due to disagreements with teammates, conflicts with superiors, and left Nassa, on the day he left, he flew a fighter plane, shot down 17 teammates' fighters, and was named a villain by Nasser and even the Roland Air Division. After leaving the Roland Air Division, Russell joined an obscure Free Coster Army, where he shot down 1O2O enemy planes over the course of three years, including 244 aircraft from the Roland Air Division. ”

Hearing this, the students below looked at each other, and their expressions finally revealed a hint of surprise, shooting down nearly two thousand enemy planes in five years, what is this concept? 2ooo fighter planes, that is the strength of an ordinary air combat division.

And this was done on his own, and it is clear that Russell's limelight has far overshadowed Barrot based on his record alone.

Seeing the expressions of the students in the audience, Chen Weibin smiled slightly, and then continued: "When Russell was 25 years old, he drove a fighter plane back to the headquarters of the Roland Air Combat Division on his own, and as a result, he has disappeared since then. ”

"Hmph, I can't do it." Hearing such words, there was such a voice from the audience, in the eyes of these students, the Seven Great Air Combat Divisions are definitely the same existence as the Holy Land, how can the Holy Land be what the devil can do?

Just when the students made such disdainful voices, Chen Weibin suddenly changed his words: "At the same time as Russell disappeared, the Roland Air Division came with shocking news, the commander-in-chief of the Roland Air Division, was killed by Russell on the spot. ”

Swish.

The whole class was suddenly silent, and even Yuan Ye on the side was frightened, and a fighter plane swept through the headquarters of the Roland Air Combat Division, one of the seven major air combat divisions? What kind of concept is this? It's hard to imagine what it would have been like.

One person against a huge force, and also killed the commander-in-chief at the time, in everyone's minds, Russell basically can no longer be described as a person, the Grim Reaper in the air, which is worthy of his title.

Looking at the surprised faces in the audience, Chen Weibin also knew that this was not how clever he was in lecturing, but that Russell's experience was too legendary, and then he continued: "Although Russell has all kinds of unbearable, he is also the only one recognized as the king of air combat in the history of air combat, the so-called king of air combat is the supreme title above the pilot, it not only represents the supreme level of pilots, but also a symbol of honor, and it is said that Russell himself is still alive, It's just that no one knows where he is. ”

Still alive?!

The students in the audience looked at each other, they couldn't imagine that the madman was not dead, the students really didn't know what kind of words to use to describe their psychology at this time, some militant students have regarded Russell as an idol, what is that guy looking like? Well... It must be a fierce god with a face full of flesh.

And where is that guy now? This has also become a question in the minds of students, including Yuan Ye.

After the explanation of Russell ended, Chen Weibin began to explain the basic knowledge about the fighter again.

From the Ferguson era to the present, fighters have evolved from generation to generation, and are now divided into four types, k, u, R, and T.

The K-type aircraft evolved from fighters, mainly used to compete for air supremacy, and was characterized by high maneuverability and rapid firepower, but the disadvantage was that the air-to-ground capability was poor. The U-type aircraft evolved from the bomber, which is characterized by strong air-to-ground capability, and the Raytheon missiles loaded with it have the ability to kill pieces, but the shortcomings are slightly inferior to the K-type aircraft in terms of maneuverability, and the air-to-air capability is poor.

The R-type aircraft is a combination of the functions of early warning aircraft and supply aircraft, with a wide range of radar detection and high armor strength, and is the command center in the air, and its shortcomings are not as good as the K, U-type aircraft, and in large-scale operations, K-type aircraft are often needed to escort it.

As for the T-type, it is slightly like an anti-aircraft tank, except that the tracks have been replaced with a jet port, which can be used for short-distance flight, and is characterized by good firepower both ground-to-air and ground-to-ground, and the shortcomings are also very obvious, that is, the maneuverability is seriously insufficient, especially in the case of opening the fortress mode, although the firepower is greatly enhanced, it also means that it cannot move, and if the companion is not well protected, it will often become a live target for the U-shaped machine.

It can be said that these four types of fighters have their advantages and disadvantages, aside from the auxiliary aircraft of the R-type aircraft, the other three types of aircraft are mutually restrictive, the K-type machine overcomes the U-type machine, the U-type machine overcomes the T-type machine, and the T-type machine and the K-type machine are completely a rock-paper-scissors relationship.

As for how to choose, it is completely different from person to person, and it is up to you to decide according to your own conditions.

Hearing Chen Weibin's introduction, Yuan Ye was slightly stunned, then nodded subconsciously, then picked up the electronic version and began to record.

Just now, he suddenly thought of the "K" marked in his broken notebook, and now he is basically sure that the "K" represents the K-type machine.

After introducing the types of fighters, Chen Weibin began to talk about the grade of fighters, which is mainly a measure of the comprehensive performance of fighters.

With the continuous development of science and technology, the grade standards of fighters are constantly changing, but the overall framework is unchanged, and the grades of fighters are roughly divided into two types, one is a standard fighter, and the other is a class fighter. No matter which one it is, it is divided into four grades: inferior, medium, superior, and top, and the higher the grade, the better the performance of the fighter.

As for the difference between standard fighters and class fighters, in addition to the difference in performance, there is also production, standard fighters can be mass-produced, often used for large-scale assembly of troops, and class fighters due to precise design, complex technology, precious materials, can not be mass-produced, a style of fighters, often only one, and extremely precious, such fighters will generally be handed over to the top pilots to fly.

At the end of the first class, the other students just listened to the excitement, but Yuan Ye's electronic board was densely recorded.

There were three classes in the morning, and as for the other two classes, Yuan Ye was not so easy to listen to, those two classes were advanced mathematics and air combat physics.

Although on the first day of college, the professor did not put too profound things, but Yuan Ye, who was only at the level of the third grade of primary school, how could I understand it?

Looking at the professor's mouth on the podium closing one by one, a large number of terms being released one after another, and a large number of symbols on the development screen, Yuan Ye was once again stunned.

That large number of messy symbols was like a book from heaven to Yuan Ye.

"Hey...... It seems that the lessons I have fallen behind have to be made up. Yuan Ye sighed bitterly, but the movements of his hands did not stop, so he simply took it off according to the professor's board and went back to study it slowly.

After the course of advanced mathematics and air combat physics ended, Yuan Ye looked at his electronic board, which was densely packed with many things, and some complicated symbols Yuan Ye had drawn according to the cat and the tiger.

Looking at a lot of things that he didn't understand, Yuan Ye's heart gave birth to a trace of irritability, for a person who wants to be motivated, it is a normal phenomenon, no matter who it is, seeing so many things that have no clue at all and have to do it, will also produce such emotions.
