Great Power Fighting Falcon

Chapter 383 The Super Dancer Who Conquers the Sky

The J-16, which is all khaki in color and only has the manufacturer's production number, is on standby at the takeoff line.

At 7:55 in the morning, the sky was dim and bright, and the sky far to the west was slightly brighter. It was still dark in the Beikou area until the sun was seen.

The instrument panel, which is composed of a multi-sided color large-size display as the main body, is friendly to human-computer interaction. It is neither dazzling nor blurry. Pilots can clearly obtain the data information they want at the first time. When the J-11B production was involved in modifying the tactical intelligence interaction system, it was determined through consultation that the manufacturer made the same improvements to the avionics system of the No. 1616 J-16 assigned to the 101 Brigade for test flight, making the aircraft It can be integrated into the Beikku air defense and air combat system network.

Instructions from the tower continued to come through. Han Hongjun in the front cabin and Li Zhan in the rear cabin conducted inspections in an orderly manner and reported the situation to the police.

Looking around, the Beiku combat training base is pitch black, and the pre-takeoff support work under blackout has come to an end. The maintenance team had entered the outfield three hours ago to start support work, and the pilots were the hardest working group.

"Check the power system, check the fire control system, check the communication system, check the tactical intelligence system, check the flight control system..."

After each inspection is completed, the pilots in the front and rear cabins must confirm each other.

"The flight control system inspection is completed and everything is normal." Han Hongjun completed the last inspection and said, "The pre-flight inspection is completed."

Li Zhan looked at the time, it was 7:58, "Command station, Yingtou is ready, it's over."

On the taxiway on one side, ten J-11Bs were lying there like ten beasts waiting for an opportunity to attack. When given an order, they would decisively attack the enemy.

At eight o'clock sharp, the command platform issued the dispatch order, and the fourth confrontation drill officially kicked off.

Han Hongjun pushed the throttle lever all the way, and the two Taihang-modified aviation engines of No. 1616 J-16 made a low and powerful roar. The two tail nozzles opened and closed, and the hot tail flames spurted out. The fighter suddenly accelerated and ran forward, like Pole vaulters generally thrust their heads high and their chests into the sky.

An electronic pod was mounted under the belly of the aircraft, and six air-to-air missiles were mounted under the wings. No. 1616 J-16 simulated air command aircraft took off first. The J-16's maximum bomb load is said to be an astonishing twelve tons, which exceeds most bombers in the world.

In order to better command the battle, Li Zhan changed from the front cabin to the rear cabin and handed over the flying work to Han Hongjun. He was able to concentrate on commanding the fleet operations.

"Put the gas pedal deeper." Li Zhan reminded Han Hongjun.

"Understood." Han Hongjun locked the throttle lever and pushed it all the way. He was in half-throttle mode just after level flight.

The Eagle Head command plane took off from south to north, then turned at a large angle to the right and adjusted its course to due east. After flying more than 300 kilometers, it adjusted its course to due south.

After two-way confirmation through the tactical intelligence system that he had arrived at the designated airspace, Li Zhan called the command station, "Command station, Eagle Head is ready to take over the command, completed."

"Command station received, tactical troops took off, completed."

Ten J-11Bs took off in a two-plane formation and completed the sortie within one minute, then flew at low altitude in a smaller radius circle along the same course as the Eagle Head command plane. The fleet of aircraft flashed their navigation lights and passed over towns, passing over crops that were ready to welcome the sun, crossing the mountains and Ulen Lake, heading towards the victorious distance.

"Vulcan Invincible Team reports that I have reached the first adjustment point, completed."

"The Super Breakdancer Team is confirmed to have arrived at the seventh adjustment point, completed."

"The late-night bar goddess team will arrive at the third adjustment point in three minutes. It's over."

"The Northeastern team has arrived at the designated airspace, over."

Thirty minutes later, all five squadrons of ten fighter jets reported their positions. The radio call signs they assigned for their missions really made Liang Pengfei and other base commanders who were watching the battle in the tower that served as the command post twitch at the corners of their mouths. The commanders couldn't help but say, "This late-night bar." What's going on? Where's the team going out for drinking? Is it because the solitary room has been abandoned for a long time? "

Fang Chenghe explained with a smile, "Simulating the Blue Army. The pilots of a certain Blue Army have such virtues. If we build according to the direction of undifferentiated simulation, there will be no shortage of radio call signs like this in the future. Of course, if the chief thinks it is inappropriate, I will let them change it." come over."

Liang Pengfei waved his hand and said, "No need to change it. Young people, let them go. As long as we can win the war, it doesn't matter what code name we have."

"The leader is wise."

After Li Zhan confirmed from the tactical intelligence system display interface that all four teams were in place, he ordered Han Hongjun, "Open, drive to Area 4!"

"clear!"

Han Hongjun was full of energy. He climbed up and climbed up and up again until he reached an altitude of 10,000 meters. At the same time, he adjusted the course to due west and pointed the nose of the plane directly at the No. 4 combat readiness station in the No. 4 area. At this time, the distance was 600 kilometers and already outside the prescribed exercise airspace.

Judging from the flight situation map of the Falcon Group, all of their fighter planes were wandering outside the exercise airspace. Except for the command plane No. 1616 J-16 at high altitude, the other fighters were all hiding their traces at low altitude. For the J-11B fleet that takes off with full fuel, this airspace is a small area, and there is really no need to worry about insufficient time in the air.

The Eagle Head command plane quickly moved out of the No. 4 airspace at an airspeed of 980 per hour as if there was no one around, and the distance to the No. 4 combat readiness station was rapidly closing. Big Red Eagle simulates the attacker. They do not have ground-based long-range air warning radars and can only rely on airborne radars for air search. In other words, the Eagle Head command aircraft is safe up to 200 kilometers away.

Early warning command and electronic warfare are the tasks of the Eagle Head command aircraft. It simulates an air command aircraft, and it carries six air-to-air missiles, which means that it can transform into a fighter jet and join the battle at any time. In other words, the J-16 No. 1616 actually simulates an air command aircraft, an electronic warfare aircraft and an escort fighter.

At a location three hundred kilometers away from the No. 4 combat readiness station, Li Zhan turned on his airborne radar to search the airspace in the front hemisphere. Li Zhan was not discouraged when he found nothing after a few minutes. The air inlet of the J-10B has been optimized. The sharp-edged square air inlet and the few reinforcing ribs are gone, replaced by a rounded opening that is integrated with the fuselage. The radar reflection area is larger than that of the J-10A. Be smaller.

The automatic electronically scanned active phased array radar (AESA) carried by the J-16 is very powerful. It can provide a detection range of up to 300 kilometers for fighter jets and automatic tracking and identification capabilities. This radar can even detect the target based on its launch. The signal characteristics identify the specific aircraft model and display relevant data information to the pilot. During the entire process, the pilot only needs to activate the radar combat mode.

It is impossible to achieve the theoretical performance value in actual combat, but despite this, the J-16 has been able to discover it ahead of time. The J-10 has a smaller nose and is a single-engine fighter. The radar performance it carries is far inferior to that of the J-16, and is roughly equivalent to the Doppler pulse radar of the J-11B. Before the two sides even met, the Red Eagle troops lost part of their initiative on the battlefield because of the J-16's sudden attack.

The most frightening thing is that they don't know that they have lost part of their initiative.

"Radar detected, slow down and slow down."

Suddenly, a dozen small dots appeared on the display screen, and Li Zhan quickly ordered Han Hongjun to slow down. What Li Zhan could see, Han Hongjun could also see. The radar quickly gave relevant data about the target and even the performance parameters of the aircraft model. He immediately controlled the distance to the target and began to cruise at high altitude. A good early warning and command aircraft.

Li Zhan skillfully operated the interface and synchronously transmitted the target information to the ten J-11Bs in the tactical formation through the tactical intelligence interaction system.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh softly when they saw the neat tactical formation of the Big Red Eagle flying north at an altitude of six thousand meters. The current situation is very interesting. After taking off, the Falcon Brigade first flew north, then turned east to distance itself, and then made a large circle south, actually flying outside the exercise airspace.

When the nose of the Falcon Group was facing west, that is, towards the No. 4 combat readiness station, their position was already on the flank of the Big Red Eagle.

Taking advantage of the long range of the J-11B, he made a beautiful left hook. Whether it is air combat, ground combat or sea combat, flanking attacks are at the forefront of the tactics that pose the greatest threat to the enemy, and are also one of the most commonly used tactics. Looking at countless battles in the history of war, the losing side mostly began to collapse when its flanks were lost.

Therefore, as the saying goes: if you defend the flanks, you will defend the victory.

In other words, if the flank attack works, victory will not be far away.

The Falcon Battalion ran to the right wing of the Big Red Eagle without the latter being completely unaware of it, and the latter's defeat began to show.

Is this all the big red eagle is capable of?

Obviously not.

Li Zhan found that there were only nine targets searched by the radar, and there were three other fighters that did not appear in the radar search range or were hidden somewhere. The domestic AESA radar system's ground-to-sea search capability is very powerful, but it is not absolute.

Li Zhan can still avoid most ground radar searches by driving his J-7 into the Beiku Mountains, let alone the J-10B with better performance and smaller RCS.

The three J-10Bs that have not yet appeared are a small hidden danger.

Not long after, the nine J-10Bs disbanded the formation, divided into three three-machine formations, and flew to the Beiku combat training base in a pin-shaped combat formation. Judging from their distance, it was obvious that they formed a search network covering the entire exercise airspace. Li Zhan even suspected that only one fighter plane in each of their squadrons turned on the radar to search and guide the remaining two fighter planes to fight.

The goal of both sides is to completely annihilate each other. There is no base to defend in this exercise and there is no need to defend it. Whoever can defeat the sky will be the final king.

Li Zhan is still waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the signal to appear.

The distance continues to increase, and it will enter the radar search range of the J-10B in three minutes.

Suddenly, nine J-10Bs performed evasive maneuvers at the same time. Even though they were tens of kilometers apart from each other, they were able to move in unison and turn and dive at a steep left angle.

Han Hongjun lost his temper and said, "Yingtou, have they discovered us?"

The standard escape and avoidance maneuver opened up a distance of more than ten kilometers in a few seconds, and was about to run out of the radar detection range of the Eagle Head command plane.

"Not necessarily. Chengda is difficult to deal with. He must have noticed something unusual." Li Zhan said in a deep voice.

His guess was correct, Chengda did notice something unusual.
