Is it true that the Su-27 of the M2K type, the facelift of the IAPO under Sergei Koneshev, the White XX, could not land on the heavy aircraft-carrying cruisers of the Red Navy, even without that damn landing hook?

Long Yun, who was born in the Red Air Force and had never been on an aircraft carrier, first thought of "catapult parachuting" when he encountered the trouble of dropping the chain of the ship's hook, and the preferred solution of the commanders and fighters of the Red Navy was the emergency blocking net on the heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser "Varyag."

But now, this measure is not available, and it also gives him a relatively easy option.

On the 1143.6 type "Varyag", this emergency arresting device for recovering carrier-based aircraft has been used once, when receiving a Su-27K of the 281st carrier-based aircraft aviation regiment of the Red Navy, because the aircraft was damaged by a single engine and stopped, and it was unable to return to flight if it did not hook the arresting cable, it was successfully recovered by nylon blocking nets before, and now the last barrier on this side of the port side has not been replaced, and it is no longer possible to stop the white No. 20 with the failure of the ship's hook.

The failure of the landing hook to be in place was originally a very small probability event, but the blocking net was often used, and as a result, Long Yun's luck was not very good today.

Hearing the news on the radio, he was still a little depressed at the time, but for a battlefield veteran like Long Yun, who had never seen any kind of experience in the war, he was inspired by the memories of the plane landing in a mine on the outskirts of Ordzhonikidze, and he quickly forgot about the tattered blocking net and began to seriously consider the problem of saving himself.

On the other hand, after receiving Viktor Rezenov's report of danger, the ship's commander was the first to think of the blocking net. Originally. They also wanted to direct the VVS Vice Admiral to land on the Tbilisi in the nearby waters. Who knows that the combat habit of this super ace is that he has always left no extra fuel, and now the white No. 20 has become a luxury to even fly to 1143.5 twenty nautical miles away.

Under the critical situation, a very bold idea was suddenly moved, like a thunderclap in the dark night, which immediately made Long Yun enter a state of brainstorming.

Driving a Su-27M2K that is running out of fuel and can't wait for its partner to refuel, the Irkutsk Aviation Industry Complex's Supreme Limited Edition Sukhoi does not want to lose this precious facelifted landline in any case. Even if there is an M2 type in the forward base in the Far East forest, the more this model, the better, I don't know which day I will lose the landline in the violent battle, Long Yun asked Koneshev, IAPO can't get a new M2 in a short time, so he immediately activated every nerve in his head and began to seriously consider this seemingly impossible proposition.

The Su-27M2K, of course, has better flight performance than the S-type, and the size is somewhat smaller, and now the weight has been reduced almost to less than seventeen tons, if it lands directly on the "Varyag". What will happen?

While thinking, he looked sideways at the huge body of 1143.6 on the sea. Of course, Longyun's virtual calculation is not based on a landing runway of about 200 meters; Since the landing hook of the White No. 20 cannot be used, the conventional landing process of carrier-based aircraft is no longer applicable, and if a fighter without a blocking cable still lands in the middle and rear of the landing area at once, the next thing is to plunge headlong into the sea in addition to go-around.

Since he is bent on saving the landline, Long Yun's thoughts are much more radical than this, and he is now nervously calculating the shortest landing and glide distance of the Su-27M2 without a blocking cable.

During the landing, all the deceleration means that can be used are comprehensively considered, including the tail parachute used during land landing, the main wheel brake, and the Su-27S's rear speed brake is replaced by the M2 type vertical tail rudder differential, which can also play a certain role in deceleration; These are still conventional means, and with the "Varyag" sailing against the wind, the deck wind is about thirty-five knots, which is equivalent to an equivalent speed of sixty-five kilometers per hour.

All these conditions add up, for an M2 that is essentially a land-based fighter, can the landing distance be compressed to just 200 meters?

Impossible, no matter how you think about it, you can't do it, this seems to be Long Yun's conclusion.

But......

Next, while keeping in touch with the heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser, the white twenty who circled back once again entered the descent track and prepared to enter the landing, Long Yun's current thoughts were both bold and crazy, anyway, he had confirmed that there was only one way to fall into the sea if he continued to wander like this, rather than giving up directly, it was better to gamble with all his might!

With the idea of saving the landline and at the same time saving his next combat opportunity, the gray-white Sukhoi, painted with red stars in the sky, staged a forced landing that stunned all the crew members of the "Varyag".

Piloting the plane to approach the Type 1143.6 heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser that was advancing at high speed, while repeating the crazy idea just now in his mind, Long Yun was not sure if he could do it, he urgently called the air dispatcher, asked all the personnel on the ship to avoid it, and his eyes swept over the flight deck that had just recovered the carrier-based aircraft and was now empty, while quickly starting his mind, what is the total length of the deck of this sea airport in front of him, three hundred and six meters, right?

It's a little over 300 meters, it's still a little too short, even if you slide from tail to head, it's not enough at all, but—

Anyway, there is only one choice, whether it is successful or not, it depends on now!

The air turned around and came back to prepare for landing, the gray-white giant bird in the sky glided lightly in the sea breeze, the speed was constantly decreasing, and the flight altitude continued to change, on the heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser that was getting bigger and bigger in front, the gray-blue Su-27K that had just taxied from the elevator to the first take-off position was returning, and the battery car next to it also shrank to a corner of the huge ship island, and some people seemed to have guessed something about the urgent request of Vice Admiral Viktor Rezenov, in the bridge, on the deck side, How many people are staring at the approaching white twenty with surprise on their faces, this VVS ace, should he-

To fly the plane directly on the "Varyag" and taxi all the way from the stern to the bow of the ship?!

Although many people guessed such a crazy landing, they did not know what the outcome would be, and the mechanics and deck staff who were familiar with the performance of the fighter plane were horrified.

Staring at the white No. 20 flying over, they were stunned, of course they couldn't recognize the landline model of the "Reaper", only saw that this fighter did not have a three-wing surface, and regarded the Su-27M2 as an ordinary S/P type, even if they didn't know anything about the performance of the fighter, everyone knew that this land-based fighter would never be able to stop on the deck in just three hundred meters.

Looking at this posture, does he want to rush over the bow deck and then fall down all at once, isn't that more dangerous than falling directly into the sea?

Seeing that the gray and white giant bird in the sky was getting closer and closer, it was clear that he was going to pounce on the deck, and everyone sweated for Viktor Rezenov, and at the same time felt that this comrade lieutenant general had made some mistake in judgment, so that it would not be possible to stop the car when it fell, even if the bow of the "Varyag" was cocked.

In this way, facing the white twentieth that had slid down from the sky, the empty deck of the aircraft carrier was empty, and the four blocking cables supported by the bow spring were still there; Until someone understood a little, this approaching Su-27 did not go straight to the course of the battleship, but aimed at the centerline of the landing runway like ordinary carrier-based aircraft landing, and what filled everyone's minds was a greater confusion and worry, and the fighter that could not be caught by the length of 300 meters fell on the beveled deck with a length of only more than 200 meters.

Piloting the plane to approach the "Varyag", but the landing track did not align with the central axis of the battleship, Long Yun's plan was not simply to rush from the stern to the end, without anyone reminding him, it is impossible for a Su-27 to land on a three-hundred-meter-long runway, which he knows better than anyone else, even the facelifted M2 type can not do.

The White Twenty, which had bottomed out with fuel oil, landed on the deck of the carrier, and his aligned reticle was neither the center axis nor the center line of the beveled deck, but entered from the stern in a direction more exaggerated than the angle of the beveled deck.

At this moment, the giant ship sailing against the wind is still moving at full speed, according to the urgent order of the captain of the "Varyag", Admiral Igor Kravchenko, the operation of the four TV-12-4s is a little overloaded, and the total output horsepower is close to 220,000; In the second approach after Viktor's completion, the windward "Varyag" accelerated further to thirty-two knots, which is almost the maximum speed that the Type 1143.5/6 could achieve, trying to do a little favor in this way, and slightly make up for the mistake of not replacing the blocking net in time.

But in any case, even if it is the number one ace of VVS, can it really fall on the mothership all at once?

The fighter plane continued to slide down, this last attempt, no longer need the engine to output, ready to fly at any time, pull the rear throttle valve to reduce the thrust, the dark gray deck in front of Long Yun quickly became larger, he knew that at this time he should start to slow down, otherwise it would be impossible to complete this thing to challenge the limit, so he immediately pressed the button and turned on the vertical tail rudder differential.

The button was sunken, and it felt that the fighter immediately had a slight tendency to look up, at this time the aft part of the deck of the "Varyag" was very close, and the young man who gritted his teeth suddenly pulled the electric door, and he felt that the fighter was shaking all over, as if it was pulled by a giant, and the two cross-shaped deceleration parachutes released from the tail vertebrae of the Su-27M2K quickly bloomed, and the white twenty, which was still in the air, suddenly stopped the upward momentum, and at the moment when the huge fuselage swept over the stern, the main landing gear that crossed the tail line was only more than ten meters and grazed the deck, Two puffs of green smoke burst out from behind the main wheel.

When entering the field, he tried his best to reduce the angle of attack, and felt a few tremors in the vertical direction, Long Yun immediately pushed the rod and kicked the rudder in his hand, and all the rudder faces of the Su-27M2, which was still rapidly castrated, were immediately deflected to provide some aerodynamic drag as much as possible.
