Chapter 21 Red No. 17

Of course, it is impossible to easily come up with an answer to the question of war motives.

After all, Long Yun himself is not a strategist, but he thought about it vaguely and knew that the combat mode and strategic intention of modern warfare were different from the past.

Just talking about the battlefield situation he is facing now, if NATO really fights along the Caucasus and Black Sea, it will certainly be a serious threat to the heartland of the Soviet Union; and the Caucasus region, which concentrates a large number of shipbuilding, chemicals, crude oil, and ore mining industries, is attacked or even falls into the opponent, and the impact on the potential of the Soviet war will be extremely serious.

But - say a thousand words, why is there only nineteen single-seat fighter jets left in the 237th Regiment now available?

Did the above not make timely replenish the damage?

Long Yun carefully raised this question, and actually felt that if this was the case, he would not have a plane to use it.

"It's like this, and I don't know what IPO (Irkutsk Aviation Industry Consortium) and Knaapo (Kongqingcheng Aviation Industry Consortium on the Amur River) are doing. Didn't the Chinese production line have been debugged and can be put into production. Does the su-27 no longer need to be exported? But the new plane has not come down recently, and it seems that even the aviation regiment originally stationed in the rear has been transferred.

——Oh, but now you are here, the situation is of course different! New fighter jets will fly in the past two days, and now others can fly the two-seater Su-27ub in the group for the time being; when this kind of war is tight, we are also two-seaters, single-seaters to fight together. It is still okay to squeeze out an airplane to make you familiar with the driving, our ace! Haha."

"Okay, then I'll take over the plane immediately and strive to take off the air combat as soon as possible."

Long Yun could hear obvious expectations from the commander's words, and of course he also hoped to participate in the battle as soon as possible.

After completing the brief procedures, the regiment commander immediately asked the adjutant to take over the fighter plane with Long Yun. He hoped that the number one ace of the Red Air Force would be replaced as soon as possible, become the new main force and benchmark in the regiment, and exert his strong combat power.

Leaving the regiment headquarters, he took the Uaz-469 jeep driven by the adjutant and walked through the huge aviation base. The two soon arrived at the maintenance hangar where the fighter planes were parked. The adjutant told Long Yun that his new fighter plane had completed inspection and necessary maintenance here and could be launched at any time.

Following the adjutant to the side of the round arched reinforced hangar, walking into the hangar from the small door, the scene in front of him immediately attracted Long Yun's attention.

——su-27.

A huge fighter with a blue and white gradient color painted and dark green on the front of the aircraft is quietly dormant in the hangar half-opened at the main entrance and brightly lit; looking towards it, his tall figure and capable appearance exudes the unique domineering and beauty of the fighter.

From the direction of the head of the machine, the beautiful streamlines diverging from the end of the airspeed tube outline a simple and bright outline; the raised bubble-shaped cockpit is located at the highest point of the entire body structure, and you can see that you have an excellent viewing field at a glance.

Under Long Yun's delicate examination, there was no unnecessary structure on the smooth body except for the joint marks and sensor probes.

With the wide edge strips of the trapezoidal wings, the wedge-shaped air intake extends backward at wide intervals, and the outer edge strips of the tail are equipped with sharp double-hedge tails; the sharp and smooth tail vertebrae is protruded between the tail nozzles, and the outside is a wide cut-point trapezoidal tail wing. From the back of the body, the protruding front body is slightly drooping, and a smooth bow curve appears on the full spine, full of mechanical beauty and excellent charm of fluid design.

The wing lift structure of the zhongyāng Air Fluid Dynamics Institute, the al-31f turbofan engine of the Liurika Design Bureau, and the n001 pulse Doppler radar of the Hmilov Instrument Manufacturing Institute successfully combined all these advanced products of Soviet military technology and condensed into a war weapon with a capacity of more than 10,000 liters of oil and abundant ammunition load, but its maneuverability is comparable to that of the light fighter jets of the contemporary era!

This is the pinnacle of Sukhoi Design Bureau, the strongest guardian of the Red Sky - cyxon-27.

Standing quietly on the concrete floor of the hangar, Long Yun stared at the fighter plane in front of him for a long time.

Compared to the mysterious g-29 I have mastered before, it can be said that the su-27 in front of me is quite similar, but it is obviously stronger.

If the mysterious girl with a medium body is still a young girl who has just grown up in his eyes; then the stunning su-27 in front of him can be said to be a mature beauty with full curves and charm.

Experienced this irresistible temptation, Long Yun reached out to touch the slightly drooping front fuselage of the fighter plane, and for the first time he truly felt the huge fighter plane he had longed for; he finally began to understand why so many Soviet fighter pilots would apply to be transferred to a remote aviation regiment just to be able to fly the Su-27 into the blue sky.

The design of the Su-27, which is nearly 22 meters long, began in the 1970s. After the t-10 prototype was pushed back and started again, the completely redesigned Nirvana rebirth was achieved, which is the perfect appearance and powerful strength that it has today.

It has been ten years since it entered mass production in 1986; however, among all the third-generation fighter jets in the world, the electronic equipment is not as advanced as the Su-27, and it is still the most powerful air combat weapon, and its comprehensive performance is not inferior to any Western fighter jet.

After getting close to this classic fighter, Long Yun could fully imagine the excitement of the Soviet Air Force when receiving the Su-27.

After waiting for more than ten years, the elites in the air of the Red Empire finally hoped for their ideal mounts; the days of activity under the powerful f-15yin shadow have been gone forever, how can this not be very exciting?

Even now, Long Yun, who is about to control su-27, seems to realize that his warriors will be more difficult and the confrontation will be more intense.

Actually, isn’t this exactly what I’m eagerly looking forward to?

Seeing the red No. 17 tactical number on the side of the machine head, Long Yun seemed to have thought of something. He looked up and stared at him for a moment. When the adjutant saw him, he thought that the ace had his own hobby, so he quickly spoke:

"Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, if you need it, you can change it to your tactical number immediately; I remember you used No. 13 in the 309th Regiment before, right?"

"Ah, yes.--but it doesn't matter! I have no preference for numbers, haha. Red No. 17 is also very good, just that!"

Red Seventeen, this sounds pretty good, doesn't it?

New troops, new heavy fighter jets, Long Yun of course also hopes that his battle journey will have a new beginning, and this number can be said to be very satisfied with him.

Of course... he just subconsciously thought about this.

That night, after a day of exhaustion, the pilots who returned from the flight were still unsatisfied and held a brief and warm welcome to Long Yun in the cafeteria of the aviation regiment. I wonder if it was thanks to this number one ace, although their attack only lost two results today, no fighter plane was lost. This would be the best battle with the intention to fight without casualties. However, everyone was in a happy mood.

After a simple drink of gin, everyone started to have a big meal and chatted freely. Except for those on duty, almost all the people in the group came here. The welcome party quickly turned into a dinner party, and then further evolved into a special session on air combat technology and strange stories.

As a not-extroverted person, Long Yun became more talkative after drinking some wine, and he got along with these heroic and straightforward new comrades in just a few words.

"... At that time, I felt that the problem was not big, so I decisively 'dropped', but I didn't expect it to hit me!"

"Is that true! Haha! - That German is so tired of being in his arms, I wonder if he was so scared that he wet his pants!"

"——And, I heard that the 'infantry Ivan' of the 309th Regiment really had such a thing? He fell three MiGs in a month after the war started, but that guy was so lucky that he ran back safely every time!"

"Oh! I can't say this. I won't tell you that he is my wingman, so no one dares to cooperate with me to take off!"

"Haha! Really, otherwise you can fly the two-seat type and stuff the wingman pilot into the back seat, which is absolutely safe!"

"Yes, yes! - I said Korolev, how are you? Didn't you always admire our Victor? I'll let you be his wingman, haha!"

"What's wrong?" The little man named Korolev clapped happily, "If you don't say anything else, I won't cause trouble for our ace. - Victor, I know you like to fight alone and will definitely cooperate with you!"

In this way, after a burst of laughter and scolding, Long Yun's wingman was decided.

For Long Yun, the candidate is not important; on the contrary, being his wingman is indeed too dangerous. It seems that he will have to talk to Korolev in the future and study the tactics.

After raising his glass and drinking two sips of light beer, Long Yun tilted his head inadvertently, but saw the bearded pilot sitting not far away next to him. Even the dark-skinned Kamenev I saw at noon were also looking at him. The expression on his face seemed to have a faint feeling; while he was drunk, he didn't care much.

In this way, after a busy day, he finally came to his newly assigned barracks. Long Yun put down his things and took a shower before returning to the room and lying on the simple bed of the iron pipe rack.

In fact, what he wants to do most now is to drive the Red No. 17 that he just took over as soon as possible to train, and become familiar with the control characteristics and combat mode of the Su-27s as soon as possible; but now the night is dark and he is quite tired, so it seems that he can only wait for the next day before talking.

I came into contact with a new combat team on the first day and felt quite good. I wonder if the battle will go smoothly, and what new experience will his air adventure have?

With such imagination, Long Yun entered a comfortable dream.
