Chapter 415 Aircraft Carrier
415 aircraft carrier
With the addition of virtual reality simulators, the last shortcoming of the J-50 training team was also made up. 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 to eliminate people who are not suitable for entering the J-50 pilot team based on the corresponding indicators, and the big waves are used to wash away the sand and leave real money. The second step is to carry out high-intensity training for the remaining team members, allowing them to gradually grow from an ordinary pilot to a qualified J-50 pilot. The last step is formation training.
At the first stage, that is, the elimination stage, Chen Fei did not participate much. He just formulated selection indicators and then took some measures in the general direction. The other matters were mainly left to Li Donghai.
On this day, Li Donghai walked into Chen Fei's office with a tactical tablet.
"Chen Fei, the first phase of work has come to an end. This is the list of eliminations we have prepared. You can take a look."
After saying that, he handed the tactical tablet to Chen Fei.
Chen Fei took it and looked at it one by one.
In the first phase of the training camp, a total of 30 people were selected. According to Chen Fei's preliminary vision, there were two humanized flight brigades in the future, and the rest were all unmanned. They initially selected humanized J-50 pilots. As for the pilots of unmanned J-50, the ones that needed to be selected from those pilots who specialize in flying drones. Our army still has many pilots who specialize in flying drones, such as the Flying Rainbow series. There are now professional drones in the Air Force Aviation University, which can directly select pilots from there. Moreover, most of the new generation of college students grew up playing games. They have unique superior conditions for flying drones. The work in this aspect is relatively easy. The most difficult thing is to select humanized J-50 pilots.
Chen Fei read 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 as you think."
"Okay!" Li Donghai was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly took out the tactical tablet.
The first phase of selection work finally came to an end, and the second phase of training work was finally put on the agenda.
After giving the pilot a day off, they allowed them to rest and relax, the intense training work began immediately.
The second phase of the training was personally chaired by Chen Fei.
That day, at 8 o'clock.
After Li Donghai gathered the thirty pilots together, he trotted to Chen Fei, saluted and reported loudly: "Comrade Chief Instructor, the training team has been assembled, please instruct!"
"After a moment!"
"yes!"
After Li Donghai stood in the team, Chen Fei arrived in front of the team.
"Comrades!"
With a bang, the team members thrust their chests, stood attentively, and stood straight.
"After a moment!"
"Comrades, good morning, everyone. I am your chief instructor. My name is Chen Fei. We met a few times a while ago, and many comrades may be unfamiliar with me, so I will introduce myself first."
Chen Fei started to speak loudly.
Some of the pilots here know Chen Fei, while others don’t know.
Chen Fei performed many combat missions when he first entered the army, but at that time, his tasks were not very confidential, so the superior department was willing to promote it to him. However, when he entered the alien world, the tasks he performed became more and more confidential and could not be disclosed, so the superior department gradually less propaganda to him, so many pilots did not know him.
Chen Fei looked around and said loudly: "Everyone knows that our training team will fly to the J-50 in the future. Our mission is to fly the most advanced fighter jets."
"The fighter jet of J-50 is really excellent. I dare say that there is no rival on Earth today. Even if it expands its 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 in our army and the only pilot who has piloted the J-50 to participate in many combat missions. I also did the test flight work of the J-50 in the true sense. So, I know how good this aircraft is. Comrades, I can tell you without exaggeration that after flying over the J-50, I will no longer take any J-20 f22 seriously."
Chen Fei was so generous that he used all his life's beautiful words to praise the J-501, so the pilots in the team's eyes lit up.
Everyone was extremely excited, and some even swallowed their saliva.
Seeing that everyone's excitement was mobilized, Chen Fei then changed his tone, and continued to speak loudly:
"Comrades, but I also tell you that the J-50 is not that easy to fly, and the J-50 pilot is not that easy to fly. Not to mention the number of them, just say that the speed of four Mach is long and high-intensity flight. How long can you last? I tell you my data, the speed of four Mach, I have been flying for forty minutes at the longest time. How long do you think you can fly?"
Just like a basin of cold water poured on the head, many pilots felt a little cold when they heard this.
After waiting for a while, Chen Fei continued: "Also, when our J-50 is carrying out a mission, there is not only one aircraft. My previous combat experience is a pair of an unmanned J-50 and a manned J-50, and the chief aircraft cooperates with a wingman. However, according to the latest research by our scientists and our deductions, the biggest possibility of future J-50 operations is a manned J-50, an unmanned J-50, and an aircraft carrier to carry out the mission together."
Aircraft carrier?
Many people frowned when they heard this.
Chen Fei explained: "Aircraft carrier refers to the drone's mother aircraft. In the future, we will develop the tactics and tactics of the drone group, so there will be a drone group's mother aircraft. This mother aircraft is what we call an aircraft carrier. In the future, a manned J-50, an unmanned J-50, and an aircraft carrier, the manned J-50 is responsible for commanding, and the unmanned J-50 is responsible for the periphery, the investigation and attack are integrated, and the air and space cleaning. Finally, the drone group on the aircraft carrier strikes and conducts real attacks on the target. From here we can see that in the future, our formation can reach a combat flight brigade. Therefore, our J-50 pilot is no longer just a pilot, but more of his role is a commander!"
The concept of aircraft carrier is the first time that many pilots have heard of it, but this thing is not a new term. Since the concept of drones emerged, the concept of aircraft carriers has also emerged quickly, especially after the concept of drone groups was proposed, the development of aircraft carriers has been put on the agenda.
The drone is released from the large transport aircraft, and after completing the task, it returns to the mother machine. It can perform new tasks within 24 hours and repeat the tasks in groups.
Drones can carry many types of sensors or weapons, and have advanced capabilities to fight each other online!
Swarms of drones are sent out from large bombers or transport aircraft, fighters or smaller fixed-wing aircraft. When performing missions, the platforms equipped with drones are outside the range of the enemy's defense system to avoid attacks. When the drone completes the mission, the transport aircraft can recycle the aircraft in the air and return to the air.
This technology depends on a higher level of autonomous navigation and can complete more tasks, including longer attack and reconnaissance coverage. Because drones can start missions when approaching targets in the air without taking off from the ground or forward combat base for long-distance flights.
More importantly, air-launched recyclable drones can be equipped with more advanced sensor payloads and can perform intelligence reconnaissance and surveillance tasks, and even offensive tasks.
This tactic and tactic was proposed many years ago, but it was not possible to go further at that time because it faced a big difficulty, the recycling of drones.
Now, engineers have found a solution. There are two solutions. One solution is to install a movable robot arm with a fixture on the aircraft carrier. The robot arm grabs the drone in the air and puts it into the fuselage. The difficulty of this solution is that the airflow around large aircraft is strong and small drones are difficult to stabilize.
Another solution is to complete the launch and recycling through a flight platform connecting the cable. The small drone is installed on a rolling drag and drop with a flight launch and recycling platform. During combat, the drone and the flight platform are released together, and then the drone is released. During recycling, the drone is reconnected to the flight platform and is recycled together.
Chen Fei had some imagination about everyone's future combat mode, and then asked: "Comrades, I just want to ask, can you be competent for such a job now?"
After looking around, Chen Fei said again: "I believe that there may be almost no one who can do this job as competent as me now. So what should I do? In a word, training, training, or training!"
"I am your chief instructor. Here, I have the final say, so, whether you can stay or not, whether you can fly our most advanced fighter jets, I have the final say, so from now on, everyone must strictly follow my requirements, is it clear?"
"Clear!" Everyone answered in unison.
After finishing his speech, Chen Fei turned around and looked at Li Donghai. Li Donghai understood and quickly ran out of the team, and then led the team to start practicing according to the training outline.
Chen Fei participated in the subsequent training almost throughout the whole process, with only one main purpose, familiarity with the team members, deepening his understanding, and establishing his own position in the combat brigade in the future.
The members of the training team didn't know much about Chen Fei at the beginning, but as the training deepened, everyone's understanding of Chen Fei became deeper and deeper, so they admired Chen Fei more and more. Many people even admired him so much that they could not help. Chen Fei was really excellent. No matter from any aspect, he could leave others a few streets. After seeing the huge gap between himself and Chen Fei, everyone's training became more conscious and proactive, and many people even took the initiative to ask for additional training. So, gradually, the good atmosphere of the training team gradually formed.
Soon, the related work will enter the third stage, that is, the formation training stage.
Chen Fei didn't care much about the work at this stage, because he had already established the authoritarian authority that should be established, and he could focus on other aspects.
His next mission is mainly to explore the operations of the J-50 formation.
On this day, he received an order, and his superiors asked him to carry out a training task.
However, the superior leader did not explain the specific tasks clearly. When in the task briefing room, the superior leader only briefly introduced them.
After putting on the flight gear, Chen Fei came to the hangar.
At this time, the ICB had already prepared for his J-50.
"Hello, Chief!" A squadron leader of the operation rushed to Chen Fei, stood attentively and saluted, and handed the receipt to Chen Fei.
Although the J-50's intelligence level is already very high and the inspection before takeoff can be carried out completely independently, Chen Fei still retained his old habits and personally inspected the aircraft, including the nose, wing, tail, belly, etc. He carefully checked it all, and found that there was no problem, so he climbed the boarding ladder.
The J-50 is about two stories high. To be honest, even Chen Fei can't jump up. Even the old aircraft in the past, such as the J-10, even if there is no boarding ladder, Chen Fei can easily jump on the plane and climb into the cockpit with one runner-up and the other. However, the J-50 cannot do it, and he can only helplessly without the boarding ladder. There is no way, the plane is too high. Of course, if you have to load so much ammunition, you must also be a little taller and bigger.
Chen Fei climbed into the cockpit and prepared before the flight with the help of a mechanic.
The preparation of the J-50 was very troublesome, because the flight gear was like an astronaut's clothing. After a while, the mechanic patted Chen Fei's helmet and signaled that he was ready and could take off.
Chen Fei turned his head and looked at it. When the mechanic got off the ground and took off the boarding ladder, he ordered: "Bingbing, close the cockpit and prepare before taking off."
With a squeak, the canopy hood slowly lowered.
Then, the air conditioner was turned on, the environmental control was turned on, and various instrument data were displayed one by one.
"Col. Is it connected to the command post data transmission request?"
“Access.”
Soon, the details of Chen Fei's mission appeared on the J-50's multi-function display.
Chen Fei first looked at the planes that were carrying out the mission with him this time. In addition to him, there were two aircraft, one unmanned J-50, number 02, and another one, number 03, which is an aircraft carrier of a drone.
Chen Fei quickly checked the weapons and saw those weapons, he took a breath.
But he didn't say much, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief. He ordered the artificial intelligence: "Bingbing, the formation takes off!"
"I understand, the three aircraft formation takes off!"
Soon, three planes slid out of the hangar at the same time, slid to their respective runways, and took off in formation.
Chapter completed!
