Great Power Fighting Falcon

Delayed trip to Pakistan.

After receiving the order, everyone was very confused. It was originally a task in a hurry, and there was a consensus from top to bottom. Otherwise, the test flight team would not have transferred from Gaoqi overnight, causing Li Zhan to lose control of the aerial ladies. Not even able to interact for a few moments.

Li Zhan was about to ask Tang Guozheng what was going on, but Tang Guozheng came over first and said, "The 404th Department has to conduct a routine review of people going to Pakistan, so this matter cannot be urgent, but it is okay. It won’t take more than a few days.”

"Department 404..." Li Zhan wanted to say something, but when he thought that he graduated from the 404th Aviation School, he had no choice but to accept it. He comforted himself and said, "Okay, let's take advantage of these few days. Let’s carefully study the confrontation drill at that time. It is said that we will also conduct coordinated combat drills with friendly forces, so we just happen to train first.”

Tang Guozheng replied, "Yes, that's what your superiors mean. After all, you have been away from the Falcon Brigade for a few months. You also need to find out the combat skills of your two old subordinates first. Duda Chang Station has its full support. You Make a training plan and submit it to me, and I will communicate with the venue."

"That's about right." Li Zhan finally felt better. As long as he could fly, he would go to Basky later. After all, military exchange activities cannot be organized in a few sentences.

He really hopes that his side can conduct targeted training before starting a confrontation drill with friendly forces. The results of this confrontation drill are too important.

Immediately, Chen Fei, Han Hongjun, and Li Zixin were summoned to discuss the training plan, and a minimum of twelve hours of flight training was arranged for three days, mainly free air combat. They are all veterans with more than 1,000 flight hours. Even Li Zhan, a beast, had 2,150 flight hours at the end of December last year - he has flown more than 2,000 hours since joining the army. This is the standard of a real veteran.

Someone did some calculations for him. Based on the average hourly rod fee of 600 yuan, his rod income in the past three years was nearly 1.3 million yuan, an average of 400,000 yuan per year. This is just the draw fee. But this doesn’t seem to be an exaggeration. After all, the average annual salary of civil aviation captains announced by relevant agencies in 2011 was 600,000 yuan.

However, simple statistical comparison is not possible, because the income structure of civil aviation pilots is very complex. They are all captains or co-pilots, which is closely related to the specific situation. Such as level, years of service, whether they are instructors, etc. For example, Captain Gao and the other four are instructors for their respective airlines, and their salaries are definitely higher than those who are not instructors. Whether to fly international routes, plateau routes, etc. is very complicated.

There are many captains with a monthly salary of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.

However, if we compare civil aviation pilots with Li Zhan's level and personal contribution, then Li Zhan's income is obviously low. He should get a captain's salary at the general manager level.

These are just accessories, the real benefit is the growth of experience. It can be said that it took Li Zhan three years to fly what others would need ten years to fly, and he could gain more experience in such a highly concentrated and intense flight. For example, his ability to handle dangerous situations is well-known throughout the aviation force of the military.

After the plan was reported to Tang Guozheng, Guo Beimu personally found Li Zhan with a box of information. After putting it on the table, Zhuzi and slowly a box of information said, "Everything you can find is here. Pay attention. It's marked with Be extra careful with anything marked top secret, and only circulate it between the four of you."

"Understood, thank you, old battalion commander." Li Zhan smiled.

Only Guo Beimu can help with this matter. Even he would have difficulty collecting such complete relevant information in such a short period of time.

Many performance data about the F-16 fighter jet in 2012 have not yet been declassified.

Li Zhan even believed that the intelligence agency may have paid a heavy price to collect this information many years ago.

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win a hundred battles. This is the experience left by our ancestors. Foreign armies picked up some superficial knowledge from others, and we ourselves have passed it down from generation to generation, so we naturally understand it more deeply and apply it more fully.

So Li Zhan and the other four people gathered around a square table and began to circulate information and analyze the F-16. Everyone is familiar with this fighter aircraft. After leaving the army, we organized to watch internal instructional videos every night, including analyzes of several main fighter aircraft in the world. As the third-generation aircraft with the largest number of equipment in the world, the F-16 is undoubtedly the focus. model.

In addition to the F-16, the Mirage 2000 is also the focus of analysis and research. Why is the Mirage 2000 instead of the famous third-generation and fourth-generation aircraft such as the F-15 and F-22?

This shouldn't be said casually.

However, with the changes in the Air Force's development strategy and the adjustment of the national defense strategy, this situation is also changing. After all, after the fourth-generation aircraft came out, the F-16, Mirage-2000 and others have been reduced to "target aircraft", and there is no need to focus research on them.

But until the fourth-generation aircraft are brought into service and become combat effective, the F-16 and Mirage-2000 will still be the main threats. This kind of confrontation is actually very normal. For manufacturers, fighter jets are commodities. To win more orders in the competition, they must make their products better than their opponents in all aspects.

For example, the competition between the two major series of passenger aircraft, Airbus-320 and Boeing-737, and the competition between F-16, Mirage-2000, JAS-39, and MIG-29.

It’s not that I want to regard you as my potential enemy and I will build a fighter jet for you that can suppress your main fighter jets. The Cold War era has long passed, and the Cold War mentality has also disappeared. The whole world is a village of people with good intentions. Competition makes a fortune and the economy improves...

Analyzing the F-16 is a learning process. Learn from other people's good technologies and design ideas, and learn from each other's strengths. The design ideas of the fighter jet can reflect the tactical thinking of the foreign military. This is also worth learning and reference. We should discard the dross and adopt the other. If you refine the essence and improve and adjust it according to your own situation, won't your combat effectiveness improve?

Therefore, even if there is no subsequent military exchange, Li Zhan believes that it is very beneficial to organize an in-depth analysis of the F1-6, especially for him personally. After all, whether it is the subsequent actual combat test flight or the future arrival, When serving in Hainan Airlines, he will encounter more J-10 series fighters that simulate F1-6.

The word "seriousness" is the most important thing in everything. After the four veterans gathered together to read the information all morning, they actually gained a lot of new insights and discoveries.

Li Zhan simply asked Tang Guozheng and Guo Beimu for instructions, and organized representatives from the manufacturer's technical representatives and technical analysis group to have a brainstorming session in the evening to discuss targeted tactics based on the analysis of the F-16.

This move was supported by Tang Guozheng and Guo Beimu. Yi Xiaoyi, the manufacturer's technical representative, and Zhang Chongming and Gan Tingting, representatives of the technical analysis team, participated. Their understanding of the theory is undoubtedly more comprehensive and solid than that of the pilots.

The meeting is scheduled for 8pm in the underground war room.
