The strongest pilot ever

Chapter 413 Aircraft Carrier
415 aircraft carrier
With the addition of virtual reality simulators, the last shortcoming of the J-[-] training team has also been filled. Since then, the work of the training team has officially entered the sprint stage.

The training camp is divided into three stages. The first stage is elimination. It is mainly to eliminate those who are not suitable for entering the J-[-] pilot team according to the corresponding indicators. The team members carry out intensive training, allowing them to gradually grow from an ordinary pilot to a qualified J-[-] pilot, and the last step is formation training.

In the first stage, that is, the elimination stage, Fade Chen didn't take much part in it. He just formulated the selection criteria, and then grasped the general direction. Li Donghai was mainly responsible for other matters.

On this day, Li Donghai walked into Fade Chen's office with a tactical tablet.

"Fade Chen, the first phase of work has come to an end. This is the elimination list we have drawn up. Take a look."

After finishing speaking, he handed the tactical tablet to Fade Chen.

Fade Chen took it and looked at it one by one.

In the first stage of training, a total of 30 people were selected in the end. According to Chen Fei's preliminary idea, the future J-[-] Combat Brigade will have two manned flying brigades, and the rest will be unmanned. They initially selected the humanized J-[-] The pilots of the [-], as for the pilots of the unmanned J-[-], they need to be selected from those pilots who specialize in flying drones. Our army still has many pilots who specialize in flying drones, such as those flying the Rainbow series. Moreover, the Air Force Aeronautical University now has a professional UAV major, and you can directly select pilots from there. Moreover, most of the new generation of college students grew up playing games, and they have unique advantages for flying UAVs. On the one hand, the work is relatively easy, but the most difficult thing is the selection of manned J-[-] pilots.

Chen Fei looked at the results selected by Li Donghai and the others one by one. Finally, he handed the tactical tablet to Li Donghai: "No problem, just do what you think."

"Okay!" Li Donghai was overjoyed after hearing this, and hurried out with the tactical tablet.

The selection work of the first stage has finally come to an end, and the training work of the second stage has finally been put on the agenda.

The pilots were given a day off to rest and relax, and after that, intense training began immediately.

The training of the second stage was personally presided over by Fade Chen.

This day, at eight o'clock in the morning.

After Li Donghai assembled the [-] pilots, he trotted to Fade Chen, saluted, and reported loudly: "Comrade Chief Instructor, the training team is assembled, please give instructions!"

"Take a break!"

"Yes!"

After Li Donghai stood in the line, Fade Chen came to the front of the line.

"Comrades!"

With a snap, the team members straightened their chests and stood up straight.

"Take a break!"

"Comrades, good morning, everyone. I am your chief instructor. My name is Fade Chen. We met relatively few times a while ago. Many comrades may be relatively unfamiliar with me, so I will introduce myself first."

Fade Chen spoke loudly.

Some of the pilots here know about Fade Chen, while others don't.

Fade Chen performed many combat missions when he first entered the army, but at that time, his missions were not very confidential, so the higher authorities were willing to publicize him. However, after he entered the alien world, the missions he performed became more and more complicated. It is becoming more and more confidential and cannot be made public, so the publicity of him from the higher authorities is gradually decreasing, so that many pilots don't know him anymore.

Fade Chen looked around and said loudly: "Everyone knows that our training team is going to fly J-[-]s in the future. Our mission is to fly the most advanced fighter jets."

"The fighter J-22 is really excellent. I dare say that there is no rival on Earth today. Even if it expands the scope to the alien world, it is unique. If you ask me why I am so confident, then I will tell you now , because I am the first pilot in our army, and so far the only pilot who has piloted the J-[-] and participated in many combat missions. I also did the real test flight of the J-[-], so I know How good this aircraft is, comrades, I can tell you without exaggeration, after flying the J-[-], no J-[-] F[-] will be taken seriously.”

Chen Fei eloquently praised the J-[-] with all his beautiful vocabulary, so the eyes of the pilots in the team lit up.

Everyone was extremely excited, and some even swallowed.

Seeing that everyone's excitement was mobilized, Fade Chen changed the topic, continued in a harsh tone, and said loudly:
"Comrades, but I also tell everyone that the J-10 is not so easy to fly, and the pilot of the J-[-] is not so easy to be. Don't say much, just say that the speed of Mach [-] is high-intensity flight for a long time. Can you stick to it? How long, let me tell you my data, the speed of Mach [-], the longest I have been flying for [-] minutes, how long do you think you can fly?"

As if a pot of cold water was being poured over their heads, many pilots felt chilled when they heard this.

After waiting for a while, Fade Chen continued: "Also, when our J-[-] is performing missions, there is not only one aircraft. My previous combat experience is an unmanned J-[-] and an unmanned J-[-]. The manned J-[-] is paired with the lead plane and the wingman. However, according to the latest research of our scientists and our deduction, the future combat of the J-[-] is most likely to be a manned J-[-] and an unmanned one. J-[-], and an aircraft carrier to perform missions together."

aircraft carrier?

Many people frowned when they heard this.

Fade Chen explained: "The aircraft carrier refers to the mother aircraft of the drones. In the future, we will engage in the tactical warfare of the drone swarm, so there will be a mother aircraft of the drone swarm. This mother aircraft is what we call Aircraft carrier, for future combat missions, one manned J-[-], one unmanned J-[-], and an aircraft carrier are formed together. The manned J-[-] is in charge of the command, and the unmanned J-[-] is in charge of the periphery. Reconnaissance and combat are integrated, responsible for the cleanup of the air and space, and finally, the drones on the aircraft carrier attack to carry out the real attack on the target. From here we can see that in the future, one formation of ours can reach a combat flight brigade, Therefore, our J-[-] pilot is no longer just a pilot, he is more of a commander!"

The concept of an aircraft carrier is the first time many pilots have heard of it, but this thing is not a new term. Since the concept of drones appeared, the concept of aircraft carriers has also come out very quickly, especially drone swarm tactics After the concept was put forward, the development of aircraft carriers was put on the agenda.

Unmanned aerial vehicles are released from large transport aircraft, and then return to the parent aircraft after completing the mission. They can perform new missions within 24 hours, and repeat missions in groups.

UAVs can carry multiple types of sensors or weapons, and have advanced capabilities for networking with each other!

Swarms of drones are dropped from large bombers or transport aircraft, fighter jets or smaller fixed-wing aircraft.When performing missions, the platforms carrying drones are all outside the range of the enemy's defense system to avoid being attacked.When the drone has completed its mission, the transport plane can recover the fleet in the air and return to the flight.

This technology depends on higher levels of autonomous navigation to accomplish more missions, including greater strike and reconnaissance coverage.Because the UAV can start the mission when it is close to the target in the air, without taking off from the ground or a forward operating base for long-distance flight.

More importantly, air-launched recoverable UAVs can be equipped with more advanced sensor payloads, capable of performing intelligence reconnaissance surveillance missions, and even offensive missions.

The concept of this tactical method was proposed many years ago, but it was not able to go further at that time, because it faced a big difficulty, the recovery of drones.

Now, engineers have found a solution. There are two ways. One is to install movable robotic arms with grippers on the aircraft carrier.A robotic arm grabs the drone in the air and places it inside the fuselage.The difficulty of this solution is that the airflow around the large aircraft is strong, and it is difficult for small drones to stabilize.

Another option is to complete the launch and recovery via a flying platform connected to a cable.Mount the small drone on a roll-and-drop machine with a flying launch recovery platform.During combat, the UAV and the flying platform are released together, and then the UAV is released.When recovering, the drone is reconnected with the flight platform and recovered together.

Fade Chen imagined everyone's future combat mode, and then asked: "Comrades, I just want to ask, are you qualified for such a job now?"

Looking around, Fade Chen said again: "I believe that there are almost none of you who are qualified for this job like me now, so what should we do? In a word, training, training, or training!"

"I am your chief instructor. Here, I have the final say. So, whether you can stay and whether you can fly our most advanced fighter jets, I have the final say. So, from now on, everyone must Do exactly what I ask, is that clear?"

"Clear!" Everyone answered in unison.

After finishing his speech, Fade Chen turned around and glanced at Li Donghai. Li Donghai understood, trotted out of the team, and then led the team to practice according to the training outline.

Fade Chen participated in almost the whole process of the subsequent training, with only one main purpose, to get acquainted with the team members, deepen their understanding, and establish his undisputed position in the combat brigade in the future.

The members of the training team didn't know Fade Chen very well at first, but with the deepening of the training, everyone got to know Fade Chen better and better, so they admired Fade Chen more and more. Many people even I admire him so much, there is no way, Fade Chen is so good, no matter how he compares it with, he can beat others by a few blocks. After seeing the huge gap between himself and Fade Chen, everyone's training I became more conscious and active, and even many people asked for additional training, so gradually, a good atmosphere in the training team gradually formed.

Soon, related work will enter the third stage, which is the formation training stage.

Fade Chen doesn't care much about the work at this stage, because he has already established the authority that should be established, and he can focus on other aspects.

His next task is mainly to explore the combat aspects of the J-[-] formation.

On this day, he received an order, and his superior asked him to fly a plane to perform a training mission.

However, the superior leader did not clearly explain the specific tasks. When they were in the task briefing room, the superior leader only gave a concise introduction.

After putting on the flight gear, Fade Chen came to the hangar.

At this time, the maintenance brigade had already completed preparations for his J-[-].

"Hello, chief!" A squadron leader of the maintenance team came to Fade Chen, stood at attention and saluted, and then handed the receipt to Fade Chen.

Although the intelligence level of the current J-[-] is already very high, and the pre-flight inspection can be carried out completely autonomously, Fade Chen still retained his old habits and personally inspected the aircraft, including the nose, wings, and tail. , the belly of the aircraft, etc., etc., he checked everything carefully and found that there was nothing wrong with it, so he climbed up the boarding ladder.

The J-[-] is almost as high as a two-story building. To be honest, even Fade Chen can't jump on it. Those old planes, such as the J-[-], even if there is no boarding ladder, Fade Chen can run up and take off with ease. He can jump onto the plane and climb into the cockpit, but the J-[-] can't. Without the boarding ladder, he has no choice but to do it. The plane is too high. Of course, it must be taller to hold so many ammunition Just a little.

Fade Chen climbed into the cockpit and made pre-flight preparations with the help of the mechanic.

The preparation of the J-[-] was very troublesome, because the flight equipment was like an astronaut's suit. After a long time, the mechanic patted Chen Fei's helmet and signaled him that everything was ready for take-off.

Chen Fei turned his head and watched, and waited until the mechanic got down to the ground and removed the boarding ladder, and then he gave the order: "Bing Bing, close the cockpit and get ready before takeoff."

With a creak, the canopy slowly lowered.

Then, the air conditioner was turned on, the environmental control was turned on, and various instrument data were displayed one by one.

"Colonel, have you received a data transmission request from the command post, do you want to access it?"

"Access."

Soon, the details of Fade Chen's mission appeared on the J-[-]'s multi-function display.

Fade Chen first took a look at the planes that were on the mission with him this time. Besides him, there were two planes in total, one unmanned J-02, numbered 03, and another one, numbered [-], which belonged to a drone company. aircraft carrier.

Fade Chen quickly checked the weapon mounts, and when he saw those weapons, he took a deep breath.

But he didn't say much, exhaled slowly, and he ordered the artificial intelligence: "Bingbing, take off in formation!"

"Understood, three planes take off in formation!"

Soon, the three planes slid out of the hangar at the same time, slid to their respective runways, and took off in formation.

Fade Chen's J-[-] is actually quite big, but compared to that big plane, it is still several circles smaller. That is the big guy, just like the fat girl, it is directly a Big Mac.
