The air combat experience of a veteran Flying Bird is the most valuable thing!
Looking straight ahead, Zhou Hai pressed down on the rudder and turned the nose of the aircraft. The L-15C Falcon, with a red five-pointed star crash mark painted under the silver-gray nose cockpit, smoothly sailed onto the main runway, bathed in the blazing sunshine.
"Boom!" The engine scream gradually became louder. The two ws-17 Minshan turbofan engines were in the middle thrust state, bursting out strong power and accelerating the taxi.
Pentagram!
Dazzling and eye-catching red five-pointed star!
This was three days ago because Colonel Lin Jian personally arranged for the ground staff to smear it, but the specific reason for the five-pointed star logo was not announced.
When the base maintenance staff painted a red five-pointed star on the lower side of cockpit No. 109, the impact and sensation it caused easily exceeded the contest between Zhou Hai and Firebird, causing shock to all the students and base pilots.
What does the red five-pointed star painted on the lower side of the cockpit mean?
This is the down mark that symbolizes the pilot’s highest honor!
Only by shooting down enemy planes can you smear them one by one. You only need to collect five red five-pointed stars to summon the dragon. No, you can become a recognized ace pilot in the world's aviation field.
In today's peacetime, not to mention shooting down five enemy planes, even shooting down one enemy plane is enough to make ordinary pilots happy for three days and three nights.
If it were not restricted by confidentiality regulations, the students participating in this training would have to ask Zhou Hai all day long for the details of this five-pointed star.
The scream of aviation turbofan engines filled the sky.
Facing the fast wind and rolling heat wave, the L-15C Falcon, which was in an unloaded state, slid 200 meters to reach the critical speed for takeoff under the watchful eyes of 13 student pilots and more than 20 official pilots. The joystick gently With one pull, the left and right wings generate enough lift to carry the war eagle into the sky.
The J-10A fighter jet that took off first flew due north. After taking off, the L-15C Falcon flew due south. The two sides quickly distanced themselves.
The distance of 8 kilometers is just an insignificant number for the two war eagles moving at high speed.
Twenty seconds later, the two sides reached the predetermined distance, turned and drew a beautiful arc in tacit understanding, raised their heads and climbed up, gaining height.
Height means advantage.
Both Zhou Hai and Lao Fei Firebird deeply understand the importance of height.
"When fighting a Firebird for the first time, you must first stabilize yourself. The opponent has rich flying experience and is likely to have participated in free air combat and air combat confrontation drills."
Zhou Hai stared at the J-10A fighter jet climbing at high speed through the glass cockpit cover. He did not hesitate to turn on the airborne fire control radar, preparing to seize the attack opportunity.
Close air combat is not about biting each other face to face. As long as you seize the opportunity to lock the target within visual range, you can launch an attack.
At the moment when the airborne phased array radar was turned on, high-energy electromagnetic waves shot out at the speed of light. The signal was intercepted by the J-10a airborne radar warning receiver that climbed to 4,000 meters at high speed, and a rapid alarm sounded in the cockpit.
"Okay, I have a strong sense of offense. It's my turn."
The old Flying Firebird's eyes twitched, he quickly stepped on the rudder on the left side of the stick, adjusted the note, and quickly pulled out an offensive sharp turn to the left, easily avoiding the radar exposure, and like a real raptor, he shot towards the L-15C Falcon. Attack.
attack!
In the field of close combat, the Raptors have never been afraid.
Its leading edge and mid-range coupled canards give the aircraft body extremely excellent maneuverability and rolling effects. Together with the binary three-wave system adjustable air inlet, the J-10a condenses various cutting-edge aviation technologies. It is an energy and instantaneous maneuverable machine. Combined, never afraid of any fighter.
Not to mention the world's most advanced L-15C Falcon, even the F-35 'Lightning' stealth fighter is not afraid of the J-10a in the field of close combat.
Point directly at the target and turn on the airborne Doppler radar.
"boom!"
The engine screamed louder. Zhou Hai held the control stick tightly, his eyes as sharp as knives, and controlled the L-15C Falcon under him to turn sharply to the left to avoid the J-10A in the one o'clock direction. Without any fear or timidity, he went straight Go forward and fly a series of high-G conventional maneuvers to avoid being locked by radar.
attack!
A fierce attack!
Zhou Hai deeply understood that in this battle against the J-10a, only by launching an active attack and entangled with Lao Fei Firebird could there be any hope of victory.
If you retreat and run away, you will die faster.
As a standard third-generation fighter jet, the J-10a's attributes and performance comprehensively surpass the L-15c's. It is equipped with a domestically produced Doppler radar whose performance and power are one level higher than that of the Falcon.
The large pointed arch sides and moderately swept wings cut and compress the dense air, providing high lift under the Bernoulli effect of physics rules. The entire L-15C Falcon is like a sword in the sky. With a tricky and dazzling flight trajectory, it pointed directly at the J-10a, trying to obtain the attack angle.
"Don't run away, want to seize the opportunity?!"
The veteran Firebird, who had endured a high amount of flight overload, took a big breath of high-purity oxygen. He noticed the movements of the L-15C Falcon and was a little moved. He was highly alert and turned the lever sideways, making full use of the agile maneuverability provided by the canard wings to accurately And direct angle cutting, grazing towards the target.
attack!
The opponent must be given the most violent and ruthless attack, and must not leave the slightest chance.
Zhou Hai's move was completely beyond Firebird's expectations. He originally thought that if he took the initiative to attack, the opponent would immediately evade and flee. However, he did not expect that the L-15C Falcon, like a truly cutting-edge pilot, would do the opposite. Through a series of Maneuver to avoid radar locking and take the initiative to attack.
At this moment, the last trace of contempt in Lao Fei Firebird's heart disappeared.
This student No. 1, whose overall performance is far ahead of his peers, has no worse air combat awareness and tactical skills than him.
"Buzz!"
The engine roared, and after a short battle, as both sides were temporarily unable to do anything to each other, the combat distance was shortened again, entering the true close-range combat stage.
The J-10a and L-15c continued to struggle, trying to gain attack position.
Close combat is like two people fighting each other with daggers in a phone booth. Only by deciding the winner can you walk out of the phone booth alive.
At this time, the J-10a relied on its bug-like canard aerodynamic layout and extremely excellent flight performance to fully demonstrate its performance advantages, showing the ferocious posture of a 'raptor' and transforming into a ruthless god of death.
Chengdu Lockheed Martin, who designed the J-10 fighter jet, is recognized as the ultimate canard force in the world's aviation field and has studied the aerodynamic layout of the canard wing to the extreme.
"The mobility is too poor."
Zhou Hai held the joystick tightly, frowning slightly, looking up at the J-10a which was gradually gaining position advantage. He felt a strong suppressive force and his heart sank. If this continues, within thirty seconds, he will Will lose.
