effort.
Serious and constant effort.
Time does not wait for me, I just seize the day.
"Okay, in that case, you can continue training with this flight simulator."
Hearing Zhou Hai's request, Dai Minmeng was startled for a moment, smiled and shook his head. He felt a sense of pity for talent in his heart, agreed to the request, and then arranged: "The first flight is full of fuel and no ammunition. Next, you can try Tiger The Shark has air superiority mounts, ground attack mounts and anti-ship mounts. In addition, it also involves ski jump takeoff. You have four hours of training time.”
Air superiority mounting plan: 2 PL-10 short-range combat missiles, 4 PL-12 medium-range air-to-air missiles, 2 PL-15 ultra-long-range air-to-air missiles, a comprehensive electronic warfare pod, and a 1,000-kg auxiliary fuel tank. Two 500kg auxiliary fuel tanks.
Anti-ship mounting plan: 2 YJ-83 subsonic anti-ship missiles and 2 YJ-12 supersonic anti-ship missiles, 2 PL-10 short-range combat missiles, 2 PL-12 medium-range air-to-air missiles, An integrated electronic warfare pod and a 1,000kg auxiliary fuel tank.
Ground mounting plan: 2 PL-10 short-range combat missiles, 4 'Tiange' 1000kg laser-guided bombs, 2 composite rotating pylons, each one can carry six 100kg Thunderstone-6 lasers Guided bombs, 2 YJ-91 anti-radiation missiles, 2 500kg drop fuel tanks.
Three crazy and completely different mounting schemes for combat missions have an important impact on the overall flight performance and combat effectiveness of fighter aircraft. A qualified carrier-based aircraft pilot needs to master the three mounting schemes in order to fully understand the characteristics of the fighter aircraft and the performance of the airframe. Improve combat effectiveness.
What is the combat radius and maximum interception range of the air superiority mount?
Which flight route and plan will be used to affect the combat radius?
What flight route is required for the ground-mounted mount solution, and what is the combat radius and maximum range?
These important issues related to combat effectiveness require carrier-based aircraft pilots to explore and train again and again, and draw conclusions through countless high-intensity trainings.
In addition, Zhou Hai and others not only need to master the electric missile take-off technology, but also the only current take-off method - ski jump take-off.
Due to the limitations of ski jump take-off, the carrier-based aircraft cannot take off with a full load and can only limit the fuel and ammunition load. Therefore, the carrier-based aircraft pilot needs to master the three combat mission mounting options and extension options for ski jump take-off.
The electric bomb can take off with a full load, but the ski jump cannot take off. The two different take-off methods also have different effects on the performance of the fighter aircraft.
It has to be said that for Zhou Hai and the other ship pilots participating in the training, the journey of being a knife-tip dancer has just begun.
"Yes! Thank you, instructor." Zhou Hai looked serious, with a sense of gratitude in his heart, and thanked him softly.
"Thank you, you deserve it. Okay, you can start by yourself." Dai Minmeng's smile never faded, he reached out and patted Zhou Hai's shoulder, then opened the drop-shaped glass cockpit cover, stood up and left the rear Cockpit, come to the simulator platform.
Immediately afterwards, everyone gave a thumbs up to Zhou Hai to express encouragement.
Zhou Hai responded with a smile on his face, raised his right hand, and raised the iconic thumbs up that belongs to pilots.
Dai Minmeng nodded without any further delay. He went down the metal escalator with satisfaction, returned to the ground, continued his work, and personally led the next trainee to fly on the plane to simulate flight.
"This time, we adopted an air superiority mount solution and took off with full fuel and bombs. However, the J-15C's 7.3 tons of bomb load is really crazy. It has 12 hardpoints, 8 air-to-air missiles, a comprehensive electronic warfare pod and three With an auxiliary fuel tank weighing a total of 2 tons, there is still more than one ton left. If one auxiliary fuel tank is removed, a PL-15 can still be hung."
In the No. 1 flight simulator, Zhou Hai was alone, with a calm face and bright and energetic eyes, staring at the simulator screen directly in front of him. He selected the simulated flight mount plan - the air superiority mount plan, and watched the screen pop up. Looking at the structure diagram and specific parameters of the J-15C air superiority mounting scheme, I sighed in my heart, a little bit dumbfounded.
exaggerate.
That's just an exaggeration.
As an evolved and improved version of the Su-27, the J-15C is born with the excellent genes of large bomb load and large internal fuel. It has 7.3 tons of full bombs and 9 tons of full fuel. Looking at the third-generation aircraft level, it cannot be compared with any fighter of the same generation. , even the eldest wife J-10D 'Fire Dragon' is the same.
These two data alone give the entire fighter aircraft unparalleled comprehensive combat performance and combat effectiveness.
In terms of bomb load and internal fuel, the Su-27 'Flanker' series ranks first.
As Zhou Hai selected and determined the flight mount plan, the simulator screen changed and the simulated flight program was loaded. The J-15C 'Tiger Shark', as noble and elegant as a swan, had one mounted on each hardpoint on the wing and belly. The air-to-air missile stays in the parking area on the deck of the No. 003 aircraft carrier.
In the distance is the blue sky, and in front of you is the blue sea.
The fuel is filled, the weapons are fully loaded, everything is ready, just waiting for the soul of the carrier-based aircraft to arrive.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Hai calmed down, removed a series of unimportant and complicated thoughts from his mind, and focused on the screen.
The whole person's face was natural and calm, and he was quiet and silent.
Adjusting the backrest of his seat, putting on his sharp eyesight, and raising his hands, Zhou Hai skillfully and skillfully signed sign language to the aviation commander in yellow vest standing not far away, maintaining a military posture, and started a new round of simulated flight training.
In the second round of simulated flight training, whether it was the tedious and complicated process steps before ejection or sign language communication, everyone was more skilled and sophisticated than the first round.
But this is not enough.
train.
Continuous training.
"Boom!" The roar of the WS-10C vector turbofan engine echoed around.
Time passed slowly like quicksand.
All four flight simulators in the simulation room were put into use. Dai Minmeng corrected the mistakes made by Falcon and others again and again, cultivating the awareness of the need to control his hands during the ejection and take-off stage.
The atmosphere was tense and busy.
The pilots who participated in the flight simulation crashed again and again, and then failed again. After the number of mistakes reached a certain level, they were replaced and continued flying.
The rest of the people who did not get on the plane held the electromagnetic ejection technical information distributed in their hands, studied hard, and tried their best to understand the electromagnetic ejection operating procedures and requirements as much as possible, and strive to meet the passing standards.
Zhou Hai, who was staying in the No. 1 flight simulator, was in a high-intensity simulated flight state and was immersed in the J-15C simulated flight training with all the members in the simulation room.
Electric bomb takeoff, ski jump takeoff, basic aerial maneuver training, and ship landing.
Training again and again, ejection take-off or ski-jump take-off again and again, and then landing on the ship, constantly strengthening the foundation, making up for one's own shortcomings, and preparing for the land simulation session in the near future.
Failure is not important, what is important is to find the reasons for failure.

Chengdu, Sichuan Province.
In May, the sun is scorching.
Late spring in April quietly passed away, and summer arrived in early May. The weather became much hotter. As a megacity, Chengdu was as hot as a furnace, continuously releasing heat to the sky and the earth.
