sometimes

The civilians in the exercise area were evacuated in advance, but the teaching order of the flight academy was not affected and continued as usual.Not only did the trainees not feel panic and troubled by the fleet of planes flying overhead, but they were more excited than ever. Their enthusiasm for learning and motivation for training also increased.

Only Junyang can't sleep well every night. He has a kind of nostalgia for Shanhaiguan and Kutao Ship, "I was in this gate today last year" and "I miss my relatives every festive season". He is also concerned about the safety of Yan Mingxin. Bigger, he's instantly sober, and he's never been this nervous even when he's in the drill himself.

As the highest form of military struggle, war can change a country’s appearance overnight by violent means, and it can also destroy entrenched or fledgling forces. Exercises, especially large-scale joint exercises, even if they use empty bombs, even medical treatment Adequate protection, casualties are inevitable.

Stray bullets with no eyes, sudden failure of equipment, natural factors in the field, and various unavoidable reasons that are difficult to enumerate one by one may all cause casualties.

He had heard his comrades talk about the superstitious thinking of the older generation in his hometown before. He probably said that it is not good to miss someone too much, especially at certain critical moments, if you think too much, you will really see him.

This joint exercise lasted for two months, and it was impossible for Yan Mingxin to slip out in the middle of a desertion, how could he see him?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the implication was terrible, so he quickly dismissed the idea.

But after a while, the longing came up quietly again, gradually becoming stubborn and lingering.

After flying back and forth overhead for nearly a month, Jun Yang received a notice that the exercise headquarters had named him to second him to assist in the work at the radar observation center.

Frankly speaking, he is not from a professional background, and the relevant business ability is very common among professionals, and he will not be of much help if he goes there.This trip is not so much about assisting work, but more about getting people's favor. Someone wants to support him to broaden his knowledge.

The instructor who trained Junyang and other officers on the electronic warfare support system last time was named Zhang Yuanzhou. He had a very good impression of Junyang. He said he looked forward to working together, so he really took the opportunity to give a report.But Jun Yang was a little absent-minded when he first went, and he missed the official self-introduction, and he didn't even remember his name.

In the past, he showed his sharpness, and although he was young and wild, he had the same limelight, but recently in the flight academy, he was influenced by "near Zhu Zhechi", learned the normal manners in dealing with people, and began to have the ability not to cause trouble for others conscious.After entering the radar observation center located deep underground, Zhang Yuanzhou took great care of the equipment around him in every move. Zhang Yuanzhou immediately had a better impression of him. Originally, he wanted him to be a trainee outside the glass wall, but now he was directly brought to the observation center. indoor.

There is no country that does not apply the most advanced technology to the military first. These simple-looking devices may look ugly, but they have a lot of mystery inside. Not to mention the high cost, it is likely to be one of the few in the country.

Objects can be converted into images and data from deep sea or high altitude, and electromagnetic waves can be used to detect things hundreds of kilometers away and distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. Human creativity far exceeds human power itself. Radio positioning is simply a wonderful work of art. .

There are about [-] to [-] receivers in the observation room, corresponding to thousands of radar base stations in the sea, land, air and sky. All the generous families who claim to be well-informed come here as ignorant rookie Xiaobai, only dazzled and dizzy. share.

It is impossible for Jun Yang to understand everything immediately at a glance. He can only appreciate it at first glance.

However, he didn't come here specially to appreciate it. After concentrating on it for a long time, he was still at a loss.

When Zhang Yuanzhou was free, he asked a question in a low voice: "Why is the picture on this row of monitors so different from the others? Is it a different perspective, or is it?"

"Let me see." Zhang Yuanzhou took a closer look, "This is another battlefield, but the battle here is basically over. Look, it shows that the port was bombed, the red plane was shot down, and the blue team is preparing to return. Oh, I remembered, the model used by the blue team here should be K-2020B, because you can’t get foreign fighters of the same level, you know.”

The most advanced weapons and equipment are the treasures of a country, and no amount of money can buy them. Just like the technology of K-2020, it is strictly guarded against the outside world.However, the exercise has to take into account the situation that our side is facing advanced fighter jets, so K-2020B can only be used as an imaginary enemy to attack with the enemy's tactics.

"I understand." Jun Yang nodded.

K-2020B is similar to shipboard K-2020 in performance, except that they take off from the ground. On the premise of not affecting the stealth performance, the B-type auxiliary fuel tank has a larger fuel capacity.The significance of the shipboard is that it can go out to sea with the fleet and lift off from the sea platform at any time, while the advantage of the B-type is that it has a larger combat radius.

Looking at the world, under the same sortie, there are only a handful of fighters that can compete with the K-2020 series.This is a crushing that surpassed an entire era. According to Jun Yang's past combat experience, many times, other fighters could not detect his existence at all, so they were forced to announce their withdrawal from the confrontation.

There are nearly a hundred fighters of various types equipped on the Kutao ship, but there are very few missions that require more than 10 sorties during daily cruises.Like this time, the blue team used 12 K-2020Bs to start a 12V12 confrontation with the red team. For the Kutao ship, this is equivalent to a battle-level lineup-the so-called campaign level refers to launching such a group of fighters. K-2020B can directly end a small and medium-scale battle.

What's more, the pilot of the blue K-2020B must be the elite of the elite, and it is not uncommon to be shot down by them.

Some people make a triumphant return, while others return home in a disastrous defeat.

The overall situation has been determined. This kind of multi-army and multi-subject drill is like a large-scale sports arena. Multiple contents are carried out at the same time. It is impossible to focus all eyes on this airspace all the time, and resources cannot be used entirely. Observe this confrontation.Right now, the red and blue sides of another confrontation are about to encounter each other, and the observers began to switch data access one after another.

They overlook the battle situation from the perspective of God, and the two sides in the battle situation don't know that their enemies are about to appear.The first moment of contact between the enemy and the enemy is often the most thrilling and exciting. Of course Jun Yang is very interested. There is an empty seat next to him. Zhang Yuanzhou gestures for him to sit there with his eyes. There is also a pair of headphones on the table, which can help him understand the battlefield situation.

Jun Yang knew that such an opportunity was rare and precious, but perhaps because he belonged to his own family, before leaving, he couldn't help but glanced at the group of K-2020Bs and the group of K-[-]Bs wandering on the edge of the detection of the blue early warning aircraft. red machine.

It is not reconciled to being defeated, and still wants to hold back.

Generally speaking, after the lead and lead planes are shot down, the morale of the fleet is easily demoralized, and there are sometimes problems with the direct communication between the ground command center and the remaining pilots in the air.

This is different from the general sense of being able to "endure hardships and stand hard work" and "firm-willed", and it has nothing to do with a person's quality, but high-altitude combat is very dependent on belief support, and teammates can stay awake when they are shot down, and their fighting spirit will not die , the spirit of this red machine is worthy of respect.

"The red early warning planes have all been destroyed," Zhang Yuanzhou followed his gaze, "It should be time to return."

The early warning aircraft is equipped with a super-powerful radar, and its detection range and accuracy far exceed the perception capabilities of ordinary fighter planes. I don’t know what kind of unexpected tactics the blue team used to kill the early warning aircraft.Putting this in a real war is definitely a tactic that can change the trajectory of history.

Without the early warning aircraft, the blue team can easily split the data link of the red team's fighter planes and break them one by one.

At this time, the red team's battle sequence was incomplete, and there was no coordinated tactical formation to cooperate. It was difficult to fight four hands with one punch. Facing the deep blue team in the city, it could be said that they were powerless to fight back.No matter how hard Hong Ji tried, he was just lingering, dying.

Respect is all respect, Jun Yang can't understand the feeling of unwillingness to fail, because there are too many fighter planes that have been simulated down under his hands.

He felt bored and was going to the golden throne to watch the next confrontation.

"Huh?" The radar observer suddenly said, "The red plane has returned to the battle zone! The altitude is 30, and it is flying close to the sea!"

Jun Yang turned his head abruptly—there was a crosswind in the air, huge waves on the sea, and the height of 30 meters was the flight limit for a fighter plane. A slight error in operation or providence could cause an accident.

"It's up." Zhang Yuanzhou pondered, "Xiao Zhou, send this news to the exercise headquarters, and ask them to decide whether to return to the arena."

No matter which unit these radar observers come from or which side they are biased in, no one on the battlefield can hear the people in this room.They couldn't give any hints, and the blue side didn't realize that the danger was approaching.

Jun Yang picked up the unused pair of earphones on the table and put them on his ears, just in time to hear the order from the ground command center of the Red Army: "Dong Er, you can make a tentative attack, but don't force it."

This commander is striking a stone with an egg, and he doesn't understand the K-2020 series too much, Jun Yang thought.

Even if the pilot is highly skilled and can fly the fighter plane safely close to the sea, avoiding the eyes and ears of the early warning aircraft and approaching the blue team, but as long as he climbs with afterburner and turns on the fire control, he will definitely be found before aiming.

Of course, unless it is equipped with the same K-2020 series...

The answer from the air was extremely quiet: "Don't worry, I won't land before the enemy plane."

"..." Jun Yang was caught off guard, and his heart skipped a beat.

Being in different environments and using different equipment, the timbre of the human voice transmitted through the communication channel is quite different from the timbre of people talking face-to-face in daily life.

The fighter information on the screen was all codes. Jun Yang thought about it, and asked quickly: "Mr. Zhang, where can I see what model this red fighter is?"

"Yes, I forgot to tell you." Zhang Yuanzhou suddenly remembered that he hadn't finished his introduction, and pointed to the other side to show Jun Yang, "Over there, it's Jingfei's technicians."

This exercise is responsible for data collection and technical analysis is the Kyoto aircraft factory.Like Fengfei supporting Fengtian Air Force Base, Jingfei also sent an expert team to monitor the data of each fighter plane in the exercise in real time and evaluate the killing effect to help the referee judge the outcome of the two sides.

The battle situation is urgent, and Jun Yang can't get away. The information sent back by the submarine radar shows that the red plane is constantly approaching the blue team.

"The red plane started to climb, 3000, 5000..." The observer read Tuhui's report, "[-] meters, launch!"

As soon as the shot was fired, the red plane turned around and walked away, leaving only one sentence: "I am the first brigade of the No. 16 unit of the Red Air Force. Your plane has been shot down. Please withdraw from the confrontation immediately."

After a few seconds, the judgment data is generated.

Jingfei technicians reported to the referee: "Red 16 Unit 02 launched an 'Eagle' missile at a distance of 50 kilometers. The K-2020B's early warning response was less than the minimum escape distance, and the shot was confirmed."

This is the first time since the K-2020B was shot down, all the people present were in an uproar. The Jingfei designer scratched his head and his facial features were distorted in pain, as uncomfortable as seeing his own son being beaten violently.

The "shot" blue fighter received an order and had to descend and return from another route.

Looking at the red plane again, it disappeared after firing a shot, and the blue early warning plane could not be searched within 800 kilometers.

Jun Yang touched the table of the Jingfei technician who spoke just now, and the screen displayed the status of a J-100.

He knew who the one who killed the carbine was.

There was no shelter in front of him, and in front of his eyes were huge waves, overwhelming mountains and seas, sweeping towards him, beating him until he couldn't breathe.

Zhang Yuanzhou put his hips on his hips in amazement: "This kid! This, is he here to avenge his teammates? Bloody!"

"The blue side is careless." Jingfei's technical staff shook his head regretfully and said, "It could have been a complete victory, what a pity."

Another Jingfei technician said: "This red plane is really smart. He grasped the limit of the K-2020B's fuel capacity, and knew that they had to return to the field and couldn't turn around and continue to chase! That's why he dared to come and shoot. Just run!"

Big things can't affect the work. Everyone discussed for a while, and within a minute, they split up and went back to the intensive work.

Today's schedule was on Xiao Zhou's desk. According to the exercise arrangement, he began to prepare for the next confrontational observation mission.

"Wait a minute," seeing that he was about to switch the access source, Jun Yang stopped him, "It's not over yet."

Xiao Zhou looked at the stranger beside him strangely—this is the radar observation center, they have their exercise missions, and they can't decide what to watch or not to watch based on their preferences.

Jun Yang explained: "The mission of the blue team is to bomb Suzaku Port and wipe out all the red planes. Now there is only one red plane left, and the confrontation is not over yet."

The scene was a bit embarrassing, Zhang Yuanzhou came up and patted Jun Yang on the shoulder: "The red machine has already run away, and the blue team has taken precautions. It is impossible for the same routine to work twice in a row. If the red machine turns back at this time, it will only be a sheep in the tiger's mouth." What's more, Lan Fang is holding his breath in his heart at the moment! If he dares to come again, Lan Fang will definitely rather find a place to make an emergency landing after the oil burns out, and must kill him!"

Seeing Zhang Yuanzhou, Jun Yang immediately remembered how he got here.

He couldn't embarrass those who kindly helped him, so he could only say: "I'm sorry, I don't understand."

"It's nothing, what you said is quite right. After all, the blue team did miss a fight. We can't end the confrontation immediately. We have to wait for the referee to announce." Zhang Yuanzhou smoothed things over, "How about this, Xiao Zhou, follow up and pay attention for a while, after all There are so many fighter planes flying in the sky, and every minute is a rush of money, let's do it from beginning to end, and hand over a complete confrontation exercise data!"

The radar observer said: "Yes!"

It's a pity that the remaining blue fighters flew back to the base unimpeded from the air, landed at the airport smoothly, then turned to a slow train skillfully, parked in the hangar in an orderly manner, and finally disappeared from the radar.

"I'm sorry." Jun Yang finished reading silently, nodded to Xiao Zhou, and apologized for disturbing his work just now.

Although the last red plane was not shot down and returned alone, the army is a whole, all prosperous and all damaged. Yan Mingxin believes that he will not feel better after landing.

Thinking that that person would be sad, bow his head, blame himself, and be depressed, Jun Yang's joy of entering the radar observation center disappeared in an instant, without a trace.

A person's wish can be very big. Just a moment ago, he wanted to serve the motherland without hesitating. Now his wish has become very small. He only hopes that Yan Mingxin can be happy, and it is best to be as happy as a child who just had a holiday every day.

But he knows that Yan Mingxin's happiness is not as simple as picking a small flower or flying a kite.

It is even more regrettable that the subjects of the exercise and the preset enemy situation will continue to change with the development of the international situation and equipment, and there will be no repetitions almost every year. Even if Yan Mingxin participates in the exercise again next year, he may not be able to encounter exactly the same battle situation, allowing him to make a comeback , to relieve the depression in my heart.

Some regrets, once left behind, may never come back.

Jun Yang rubbed his palms, sweating all over.

He knew that Yan Mingxin must be very tired at the moment, no matter physically or psychologically.

He hated his useless hands for not holding him up when he needed them.

"what!"

Zhang Yuanzhou was considered gentle and elegant in the army, but at this moment he suddenly held his earphones and shouted: "Please repeat!"

There was a commotion among the seats in the observation area, and Zhang Yuanzhou issued an order: "T1 area, switch all the airport radars and report the situation!"

The receiver switches access sources, and a bright red dot appears in the radar.

Such a straightforward picture, reading the picture couldn’t be easier, not to mention Jun Yang, even the students under him can understand it-there is an unidentified aircraft!

One of Jingfei's skills yelled: "It's cast!"

"The Red 16 unit bombed the blue team's airport and hangar!" Xiao Zhou Zhou was shocked and repeated, "The Red 16 unit bombed the blue team's airport and hangar!"

"Immediately load the aircraft status." The observation center was full of excitement in an instant. The computers of Jingfei technicians were connected to the data link of the ground command center of the Fengtian Air Force, and real-time data of fighter jets, including bomb loading and ammunition consumption, could be obtained in real time. "No. 02 dropped 20 'Bear' bombs...calculating the drop point..."

One of the characteristics of the K-2020 series' super maneuverability is that it has a powerful engine and can take off in a short distance, so it does not need to be equipped with a long runway. The K-2020B is no exception.In this exercise, the blue side chose a very small military airport for concealment.

The bomb bay of the J-100 is fully opened, throwing out overwhelming "bear" bombs.According to the normal charge equivalent of this kind of bomb, the airport chosen by the blue side will be torn into ruins that cannot be repaired by the powerful blasting force.

"Runway... hangar..." Jingfei's technicians stared at the screen and read out the results, "All hits! Destroyed confirmed!"

"Really?" Everyone's blood was on fire, "He flew past the airport at such a fast speed, didn't he miss the shot?"

Jun Yang's heart was beating wildly.

"I am the No. 16 Brigade of the Red Air Force No. [-], and I am ordered to destroy the invading enemy planes," the red plane pilot's voice came from everyone's earphones, "Your base has been destroyed, and the confrontation is over."
