A strong army begins with a soldier assault

Chapter 55 The co-pilot who was so low-key that he exploded

"This name really suits it." Lin Xuan looked at the captain female Fei who was only half a head lower than himself, and said with some emotion.

"Yes, that's why it's called that." Qiao Jianjia also agreed with this point: "The Veteran Tu-[-] bomber was produced in [-] by the Tupolev Aircraft Design Bureau of Da Mao's family. It was given to our country in [-]."

"Successively served in multiple theaters, and performed a variety of service and special support tasks, such as aerial survey and reconnaissance, airdropping supplies for troops in snowy areas, missile target drones, etc."

"And it was converted into a low-altitude interceptor in the 60s to intercept and block the reconnaissance battle of the Tsushima Air Force. Although it did not achieve results, it also successfully completed the interception mission! Therefore, the name of this veteran is well-deserved on it!"

Hearing Qiao Jianjia's narration, Lin Xuan also developed a kind of admiration for this bomber.But at the same time, a wave of worry also surfaced in Lin Xuan's heart.

"Then what is the current situation of the Veteran? After all, it has been almost 50 years and has performed so many missions. Will there be some hidden injuries that are difficult to repair?"

Hearing this, Qiao Jianjia immediately replied: "Don't worry about this, although the Veteran is not young anymore, the condition of the machine is still very good."

"Our country modified it in the early 70s, and replaced the original АШ-73ТК piston engine of Damaojia with a more powerful domestic АИ-20К turboprop engine. While reducing fuel consumption, it also increased by 15.00% power."

"At the same time, the aircraft's engine nacelle, landing gear compartment, and horizontal tail deicing system have been redesigned, and the position of the aircraft's center of gravity has been recalculated and allocated to improve flight stability! And the most important point is , and now its maximum carrying capacity has reached [-] tons when it is full of fuel, which is [-] tons higher than the original nine tons."

"At the same time, the current four turboprop engines have just undergone major repairs before being sealed. And the whole machine was also maintained according to the standard during the storage period. Therefore, its current state may be different from that at its peak, but It will definitely not be too different!"

At this time, the railway also said aloud: "And I also asked the military region to contact Tianfei Company. They have agreed to send professionals to inspect the aircraft, and at the same time, cooperate with us to modify it. If there is any situation at that time, It can be resolved immediately."

"Understood, Captain, Captain Qiao." After Lin Xuan heard it, he immediately felt relieved.

It was the railway that suddenly asked: "By the way, have you brought the equipment list that I asked you to write last night?"

"In the car, captain, I'll get it now." Lin Xuan said before leaving the cabin.

"Let's go together, just go back to the army. Xiao Qiao, your crew is tired, so wait here a little longer. Make handover with the ground crew, and I will send a car to pick you up later." The railway said to Qiao Jianjia.

"Yes, Chief!"

"Ah."

After speaking, the railway walked out of the cabin.Lin Xuan and Yuan Lang hurriedly saluted the crew and left.

After returning the gift, Qiao Jianjia also began to fall into deep thought as she watched the backs of the three leaving.

"What are you thinking? Jian Jia." At this moment, a middle-aged colonel with a very well-dressed figure stepped out of the co-pilot's seat and asked Qiao Jianjia.

"Ah, there is no master." Qiao Jianjia hastily denied.

However, after hearing Qiao Jianjia's words, the colonel just smiled and continued: "If you have anything to say or ask, just ask. Don't hide it. You should be aware that this may cause serious problems. What kind of consequences."

Hearing this, Qiao Jianjia also lowered her head, and said a little nervously, "I know Master."

"Well, now that you know it, let's talk about it, which one do you like?" The colonel leaned on the radar operator's seat and said with a half-smile.

Hearing this, Qiao Jianjia's face turned red instantly.He hurriedly said: "No, no, I'm just... I'm just... I'm just thinking about what the mission is this time? The superior just said, let me be the exclusive pilot of this veteran, and fully cooperate with all their requirements .”

"However, until now, apart from knowing that this veteran plane will be modified, I don't know how to modify it and what kind of tasks it will perform. I doubt whether I can complete the tasks assigned by my superiors."

"Besides, what I have always wondered is that I should not be qualified to take the position of pilot. You are more suitable for this position than me, master. After all, you have piloted this aircraft to perform many tasks. "

Hearing this, the colonel chuckled, waved his hands and said, "You, you are not a big person, but you have a lot of ideas. The superior must have his own ideas for this arrangement. As for the matter of qualifications, that is the superior's consideration. .We just need to do our job well.”

"As for whether it's suitable or not. As you know, I'm 48 this year. If it's suitable, how long can I fly? What's more, I have already submitted my professional application. So, it's fine for me to sit in the co-pilot. After teaching you, you can retire and change careers with peace of mind. After all, I am very satisfied to see my old buddy return to the blue sky in the final stage of service and hand it over to someone who can rest assured."

"Master..." Qiao Jianjia wanted to say something, but the colonel interrupted her as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Okay, the ground crew has arrived, let's go down." After finishing speaking, the colonel picked up his hat and walked out of the cabin.

When the ground staff below saw the colonel coming down, they immediately saluted excitedly: "Welcome home, Colonel Li Jianying!"

After Colonel Li Jianying returned the gift, he said with emotion: "Yes, I'm home. Is there any more boiled pork slices in the cafeteria?"

"The cafeteria is ready for you, and you are just here."

"Walk around, I've been away for more than ten years, and I've been thinking about this one." Then he boarded the ground vehicle.

And Qiao Jianjia got into the car afterward.

In the car, Li Jianying did not forget to introduce to her: "Little Qiao, let me tell you, the boiled pork slices at this base were famous in the whole system, and it will definitely make you eat your tongue..."

Li Jianying, a meritorious pilot, was a pilot of the Tu [-] Bomber Brigade of the Air Force of the Tianfu Military Region.When performing airdrop missions in the snow area, he dealt with many dangerous situations and won first-class merit twice!

At this time, Railway was sitting in the back row of the vehicle, and Lin Xuan, who was looking at the co-pilot, felt a little headache.After thinking for a while, he said: "Lin Xuan, I am very satisfied with the design of the command platform, but what is the air integrated combat platform you just mentioned?"
