On the surface, both parties are friendly and smiling, looking like you are good and I am good.
Privately, the Air Force has always looked down upon the outlier naval aviation.
Well, for the Air Force with its orthodox status and space-based nuclear weapons strike means, HNA is completely an outlier.
The strength is poor. It only has a few third-generation fighter jets such as the J-11BH and J-15. It is completely incomparable with the various advanced fighters equipped by the Air Force itself. What is this if not an alien?
Forget about the aliens, the most intolerable thing for the Air Force is that HNA has to compete for precious military expenditures and resources every year!
As the saying goes, money is not everything, but without money, nothing is possible.
In today's new era, if you don't have small money, your speech will be weak.
No one has too much money.
Military expenditures and resources are also the same for the Air Force. Without money, it cannot strengthen its own strength and continue to develop.
Too much?
Impossible, I wish I could eat alone.
Then, the problem comes - resources and military spending are limited, and there is only so much for one cake.
With the establishment of HNA, part of the pie that originally belonged to the Air Force naturally went to HNA.
The Air Force looks down on HNA. On the other hand, HNA, like a young man, does not just accept the situation and strives to catch up, trying to own the Air Force and looks down on the Air Force.
However, Zhou Hai had nothing to do with the grudge relationship between the Air Force and HNA. Unless it involved himself, he could just smile.
despise?
No need.
After all, we are still brothers on the same side.
Of course, if his own interests were involved, Zhou Hai, as a serious air force pilot with integrity, would not hesitate to stand on his own side.
Leaving the metal shed-style parking lot No. 16, walking on the territory belonging to Hainan Airlines, heading towards the parking lot No. 15 next door.
"What a strange air force pilot." In the parking bay, HNA ground service team leader Xu Ying looked at Zhou Hai's leaving figure, his mind was lost in thought, and he was a little puzzled and confused.
Gentle, approachable, and young enough that he doubts life.
What about the aloofness and arrogance that air force pilots say?
Is it the way I open it that's wrong?
After Zhou Hai left, the mechanic who was carrying out routine logistics support and maintenance inspections around the J-10D 'Fire Dragon' came to the tail of the aircraft with a standard electronic detector in hand, and stared: "Fuck, Master, the jagged nozzle. , this thing is the omnidirectional vector version of Taihang!”
Jagged spouts?
Is the omnidirectional vector version too good?
As soon as these two unfamiliar terms, which are exclusive to the aviation field, came out, they were like heavy bombs, sweeping the world.
Inside the parking bay, silence fell for an instant.
"Make a fuss and pay attention to discipline. I have reminded you many times that you must be calm when encountering problems, and you must have the mental quality to not change even if the mountain collapses. You must be careful when doing maintenance work, and your quality must be good, not just a jagged spout... "
Hearing the shouting, Xu Ying frowned slightly while thinking, and glanced at the mechanic who was doing maintenance and the three surprised members around him. He spoke seriously and criticized, but suddenly realized that something was wrong, and his eyes He stared: "Wait, what did you say? Omnidirectional vector engine?"
The voice was three points higher.
"Uh...right."
Seeing Xu Ying's surprised and incredulous look, the young mechanic came to his senses and nodded weakly. As an apprentice, he did not dare to point out his master's mistakes for fear of being punished.
"The jagged adjustment piece has been treated with stealth and infrared. It is indeed the omnidirectional vector version of Taihang. It also has stealth paint. It belongs to Niang Xipi. What kind of J-10 is this? Its maneuverability and combat effectiveness are simply beyond the sky." Xu Ying quickly came to the tail of the plane, carefully inspected the vector nozzle which was still at high temperature, and then looked at the appearance of the entire fighter plane. He was so shocked that he couldn't help but uttered swear words in his native dialect.
Vector engine!
This is the J-10 equipped with omnidirectional vector!
God, what kind of operation is this?
You know, the J-10's maneuverability and close combat capabilities are already the best among the three generations, but now it adds an omnidirectional vector!
Xu Ying can guarantee that the fighter aircraft in front of her with omnidirectional vector and stealth coating is definitely the J-10 improved model with the strongest comprehensive performance in history, and its maneuverability can break through the sky.
Has the Air Force, which has not been in contact with them for a long time, become so crazy?
After the shock, Xu Ying looked at the mysterious J-10 in front of her like a work of art. She took a deep breath, her mind clear, and said seriously: "Everyone should keep it confidential and don't care too much. After the maintenance inspection, put up the camouflage cover of the entire machine. "
"Yes!" The young mechanic and the other three members nodded, took a deep look at this fighter plane they had never seen before, and began to get busy.
It is not difficult for them to conduct basic logistics inspections on this new type of fighter jet that they have never been exposed to before.
The content of basic maintenance inspections is completely the same for any model. It only requires one scan with electronic detection equipment to ensure that there is no damage to the body structure.
Of course, if you want to conduct an in-depth and comprehensive inspection, you need to receive training on the corresponding model.
In the parking bay next door.
Su Peng's face showed a hint of fatigue, there was some sweat on his forehead, his breath was heavy, and his chest was heaving. He was sitting on a small bench to rest and wait. He held a water bottle with glucose solution in his right hand and took a sip to restore his strength and energy.
A five-person ground support team is carrying out basic logistics maintenance around the No. 009 J-10D 'Fire Dragon'. Standing at the front door is an officer wearing navy uniform with the rank of lieutenant colonel on both shoulders.
"Comrade Air Force pilot, here, my name is Li Kang. I am affiliated with the Supreme Command of the carrier-based aircraft training base. I am the person in charge of the life of this modification training. I am responsible for the life and logistics support of all pilots participating in the modification training." Navy Lieutenant Colonel Li Kangying He walked up to the top with a solemn expression and stared at the young-looking Zhou Hai. He handed over the warm glucose solution with his right hand and introduced himself.
"Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Li, code name Zero, nice to meet you."
Hearing these words, Zhou Hai didn't care, showed a polite smile like a spring breeze, took the water bottle with his right hand, and responded.
The word "air force" is emphasized. The implication is that I don't want to see you group of air force pilots involved in the modification training of this new carrier-based aircraft.
However, it didn't matter. Zhou Hai didn't care about the attitude and opinions of Lieutenant Colonel Li in front of him, and he didn't choose to explain or emphasize.
Because, it's not necessary.
Zhou Hai is very lazy by nature, too lazy to explain, too lazy to care about other people's eyes, he just needs to live well by himself.
"Comrade Zero, Comrade Overlord, first of all, let me explain to you the precautions and rules regarding life during this modification training. During the training at the base, phone calls are prohibited and external information exchange is prohibited." Seeing Zhou Hai's smile, Li Kang His expression remained unchanged and his voice was cold.
