Traverser, a traverser from the real world, lives in a world where simulators are everywhere and any type of model can be rehearsed repeatedly, taming the Su-27K is not a thing for him Long Yun?

Of course not, it's not the first time he's done this kind of thing, he made a cameo in PVO before, intercepted the "Blackbird" in Aralsk, he flew over the grumpy, even a little elusive MiG-31, MiG-25PD overmodification, these furious sky horses, he can still control them, not to mention a Su-27 series of fighters, even if it is a carrier-based type with obvious changes, as long as you sit in the cockpit and fly a few back and forth, you can still quickly find the feeling.

In short, driving the Su-27K into battle is not difficult for Long Yun at all, and this sentence makes perfect sense not only for himself, but also for others.

Indeed, while preparing food with the agents, while casually introducing the naval battle deduction at the secret meeting, so that Valentina had some basic background understanding of what he was going to say, Long Yun had another aspect in mind, if he really insisted on boarding a heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser and leading the boys of the carrier-based aircraft aviation regiment to take to the skies, this kind of outrageous move would not cause surprise and suspicion from the military and the KGB, in fact, it was completely feasible.

Because, his current identity is Viktor Antonovich Rezenov, the number one ace pilot in the world war, a person who is regarded as the "god of war" by both his comrades and enemies!

The "Caucasus Reaper", who can easily navigate the sky of the Great War, change fighters and even weapons one after another, and run to the Territorial Defense Forces to shoot down the SR-71 alone, although it is quite sensational to fly the Su-27K directly on the ship. But he really made it. And who would question it?

There are all the conditions to control the K-model. The reaction of the outside world should also be expected, but Long Yun still did not choose the path of "going on the ship".

Unlike the training advantages of the traverser, his real considerations can be shared with Valentina.

From the perspective of the overall strategic situation in the Far East, although he planned to participate in an ocean-going battle of the Red Navy, Long Yun thought of one thing before the end of the secret meeting, if he really took the aircraft carrier into the far sea, he would not care about the outcome of a sea and air battle. From the perspective of time alone, it is also a very cost-effective arrangement.

In order to participate in a naval battle, following a heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser to the sea, although the young people do not understand naval warfare, they still have the least computing ability, a battle ship group composed of many ships and submarines, even if they go straight to the battlefield at full speed, after entering the predetermined sea area, they encounter the US Navy fleet, and it will take several days, or even more than ten days, before and after; Thus, even if he had flown back after entering the war - not to mention whether there were conditions to do so. The whole fight would have cost him quite a bit of time.

At the moment, the fighting in the Far East is in full swing, and the sea of Japan is full of ups and downs. Every day, there are air battles of varying scales.

After a period of high-intensity attrition, the JASDF is on the verge of collapse, the US fighter unit stationed in Japan has also suffered some losses, and the contest between the Red Air Force and NATO is almost at a critical juncture.

All in all, in order to control the skies of the Far East to the best of his ability, he should not be absent now, but should go all out.

Under this consideration, no matter how strong a person is, after all, he lacks skills, so Long Yun will abandon the idea of boarding an aircraft carrier and dispatching with the fleet, but conceive a completely different approach idea.

Faced with a thorny problem, Long Yun first thought of a solution, but it could not really solve the problem.

Since it takes too much time to board the ship and go on the expedition, how about flying directly to the theater of operations, although it is necessary to fly into the depths of the ocean, the Su-27M2's range of 3,700 kilometers is still a little bit not enough, but can't it be refueled in the air?

Piloting the Su-27M2 with air refueling capabilities, with the support of the IL-78M tanker, went to the open sea, and carried out two or even four air refueling on the way out and home.

As a heavy fighter with a large physique and abundant internal fuel capacity, the combat radius of the Su-27M2 is generally about 1,200 kilometers when the internal fuel is full, and if it is refueled once back and forth, the combat radius can be extended to nearly 3,000 kilometers, which is similar to the combat radius of the Tu-22M3; And if you refuel twice back and forth, this number will become 4,600 kilometers, what is this concept?

After a rough estimate, Long Yun couldn't help but be stunned.

This means that if he uses such a perverted aerial refueling tactic, even if he takes off from Shenyang, he can directly participate in the battle that broke out over the dark sands of Zengmu!

The combat radius of 4,600 kilometers basically makes the M2 a kind of "strategic fighter", but after all, this is just a fantasy that ignores other conditions, and Long Yun almost immediately abandoned this idea; It is not because the process is too cumbersome or that the superiors will not support it, but the physical and mental endurance of he, the pilot, is the most important factor in the veto of the "unlimited refueling and endurance war".

Different from the crew of long-range aircraft such as transport planes and bombers, the pilot's physical and mental endurance has never been considered in the fighter with a limited range and a generally limited combat time, but now it has become an important constraint restricting Long Yun from going to the far sea.

To put it bluntly, with the IL-78M coming over to replenish fuel, plus the advance reserve of other consumables, a Su-27 can continue to fly in the sky, but how long can the pilot support it?

This question, as a VVS ace with a brilliant record, Long Yun is quite confident in Viktor Rezenov's physical fitness, but he is not arrogant enough to ignore the objective law of Cheng Dù, think about the "M2 aircraft with a combat radius of 4,600 kilometers", the fighter is subsonic during the cruise, which means that he needs to fly a Su-27M2 full of fuel and bombs, fly for six hours, refuel twice in the air, and then fight to the death with the US Navy fighter over the ocean. After the war, he flew for another six hours, during which he had to refuel in the air twice, and then-

Ahh

Can't do it, absolutely can't do it!

Asking himself to be a veteran of flying with excellent experience, Long Yun was a little stunned when he thought about it, asking him to fly the Su-27 for more than ten hours in a row, nesting in the cramped cockpit to compete with the Sandman, which can still be considered, but after flying for six hours, he has to fight with the overwhelming "Tomcat" and "Bumblebee", which is not something that can be done by will alone, but a complete outlaw gamble.

Since the Red Navy intends to fight a decisive battle in the open sea, and only by going deep into the ocean can the US Navy be found to compete, the "long-distance attack" alone is a taboo for soldiers, and even if he lands on a heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser after a fierce battle, it will not be able to change this situation.

Since it is impossible to fly into the war zone, correspondingly, Long Yun's idea goes further, and the way he chooses is much more radical than "infinite refueling".

While thinking, she explained the situation to Valentina unhurriedly, and Rao is well-informed agent couldn't help but listen a little intrigued, and at the same time felt that this was really a bit incredible, if it wasn't for Victor himself talking about it, but someone else was talking about it, she would have been skeptical and didn't listen anymore:

"Sounds ......

Anyway, Victor, I don't know anything about it, but I still feel that what you say makes sense; Over there at the 'Space Technology Sub-Bureau', carrying the Antonov transport plane of the 'Buran' class, of course I know, but ...... What kind of aircraft can also be used to perform such a mission? ”

"Haha, yes.

Of course, to make some necessary modifications, both the branch and the IAPO must cooperate. ”

Facing Valentina, who was hesitant but confident in Victor, Long Yun just laughed, he knew that his plan was quite risky, and the young girl's reaction after hearing it was also expected.

He did not follow the heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser into the open sea, and wanted to fly a landline to participate in the battle, since the road on the ocean was impassable, his plan was to enter the battlefield from the sky, and for this he needed to find a large platform that could deliver fighters remotely, that is, the masterpiece of the Antonov Design Bureau:

The An-124, codenamed "Руслан" ("Ruslan", the name of a hero in Russian folktales), is also the largest transport aircraft in the world in parallel worlds.

Using the An-124 and carrying the White Twenty Su-27M2 into the battlefield, this is his plan!

The idea was not the result of a momentary inspiration for Long Yun, the first candidate that came to his mind when he thought of this brilliant (or adventurous) idea, was the An-225, the real world's transportation giant.

On the path of development of Soviet transport aircraft, two worlds that are extremely similar, but with different trajectories, once again have subtle differences.

Long Yun, who had carefully considered the confrontation between the Pacific Fleet of the Red Navy and the US Navy at a secret meeting at the base on the outskirts of Irkutsk, and hoped to make a difference in it, thought of this arrangement, and his first consideration was "whether he could use an air platform to send himself to the battlefield", so that he would not be on standby day on the battleship and waste precious engagement time, and he could have a good reaction speed, and once something happened in the open sea, he could appear over the theater of operations in a few hours at most. Participate in the battle in a completely unexpected way. (To be continued......)
