Alsa's fighter jet dressing plan naturally includes the Fifth Air Wing where Li Gejian is located. His partner Gao Meiyu also temporarily flew to Egypt to participate in this intense work.

From upgrading from a third-generation aircraft to a dual-engine heavy-duty fourth-generation aircraft, Alsa's fighter jet procurement plan has been full of twists and turns.

In today's era when strong attack aircraft are the only ones and fighter jets have retreated to the second line, the rise of the aviation competitive industry has given military aircraft manufacturers a broader stage, and the scale of international fighter jet trade has been growing steadily. Not only are manufacturers making a fortune, but second-hand fighter jet transactions are also very frequent, and a large-scale commodity trading and circulation system similar to second-hand ships and heavy machinery is almost formed.

However, compared with the booming private trading market, in this context, international military fighter jets, especially stealth fighter jet trading, seem a bit unfavorable. "Sellers are not in a hurry to sell, and buyers do not buy on their own initiative" has almost become the norm in the fighter jet market in the new century.

The reason for this situation is that on the one hand, arms dealers can make enough profits from the almost-number-risk area of ​​aviation competition, and are not keen on selling fighter jets to sovereign countries, because the more urgently needed fighter jets, the more potential initiators of regional wars, or even directly participants. The public pressure and international sanctions of selling weapons make arms dealers feel unprofitable; on the other hand, the emergence of strong attack aircraft also makes many countries feel pessimistic, believing that even if dozens of advanced fighter jets are spent on sky-high equipment and hundreds of advanced fighter jets, it is impossible to curb a wave of strong attack aircraft offensives from superpowers. Since they cannot buy safety even if they spend money, they can simply sign a package of security treaties with neighboring powers.

Under the background of this aviation field, countries that are truly trapped in war and need weapons and equipment have become significantly polarized in the difficulty of purchasing fighter jets.

For the League of Arab States, it has the largest equipment in the Middle East, and hundreds of F-15 and Su-27 series twin-engine heavy fighter jets are very simple. As long as you pay for any middleman, no matter what kind of improved model it is, it can be said that you can have as much as you want.

However, compared with the third-generation fighter jets that are large in number and do not have any restrictions on transactions, the fourth-generation stealth fighter jets are themselves active equipment from major countries and are strictly controlled by the "Stealth Fighter Complete and Technical Control Agreement". It is very difficult for countries to purchase them.

Just a few months ago, the Arab League was able to only purchase F-35 "Lightning" for the Alsa. Medium-sized stealth fighters such as the J-21 "Xunlong" have good performance, but they are completely contrary to the Alsa's usual tradition of using twin-engine heavy aircraft. After long-term training and combat, the pilots have become accustomed to the ability to stagnate the air for several hours and thousands of kilometers. If they are replaced with medium-sized stealth fighters, it can be said that they will not improve at all in this regard. Therefore, the military has always disagreeed with the introduction of medium-sized aircraft, so this matter has been put on hold for a long time.

Things have been put on hold until now. Faced with the surging wars of two civil wars, the Arab League, which is fighting for the interests of Arab countries, naturally cannot be appeased.

If we want to solve the Middle East problem through force, whether it is facing the IF equipped with F-35 fighter jets or the sudden emergence of a large number of "ghosts", or even considering the head-on confrontation with the old enemy EJA. It is urgent to introduce advanced fighter jets to enrich the Alsa.

On the one hand, there is a strong desire to buy, and the past records are quite good. On the other hand, the US, the US and the Soviet Air Forces are also undergoing structural adjustments. Fighter Wings equipped with fourth-generation aircraft, and the fighter pilots are gradually reducing the number of attack aircraft units with smaller scales. The earlier batch of F-22s, the J-20 and Mig-44 fighter jets are also close to the peak point of cost-effectiveness ratio. The value of continuing to be retained is not great, and they are also interested in finding reliable buyers internationally.

Regarding the "Agreement on the Whole and Technical Control of Stealth Fighter", representatives of several major countries signed on it at that time. It was originally considered to be blocking the export channels of heavy stealth aircraft, but everything in this world could be adapted. After a formal process of document procedures, the United Nations General Assembly quickly discussed and approved another additional agreement, allowing advanced weapons to be provided to "peace defenders" like Alsa and "used prudently under the supervision of the UN Observation Mission" - once the price was negotiated and the contract was signed, the entire ship's fourth-generation fighter jets were sent to the Middle East in a steady stream, among which the F-22 Raptors were equipped with the Alsa fighter wing stationed in Egypt and western Saudi Arabia, and the Alsa fighter wings in eastern Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Iranian Alsa wings dressed up G-44, which rewrites the history of zero exports, just like the J-20 "Veoron" that had been sold to the United Nations in bulk and acted as the main combat weapon of the Unsa.

Regarding the export of this batch of air force's main combat weapons, considering combat readiness needs, buyers' situation and the severe reality in the Middle East, the prices offered by several major countries are very approachable. Everyone knows that the Arab League purchases these fighter jets in large quantities to put out fires. To some extent, the combat goals of Alsa also coincide with the situations that several major countries hope to see in the Middle East.

However, even in such a situation, the seller will still retain some reservations. The f-22 and MiG-44 fighters sold to the Arab League were all early production batches, and the radar and electronic systems have also been simplified. In addition, these fighter models are all land-based heavy fighters without exception.

As for the fourth-generation carrier-based aircraft placed on the aircraft carrier, whether it is the Su-50/J-30 "Shenglong" or the F-34 "Silent Cat", these superpowers' aerial weapons for far-reaching and near attack cannot be allowed to be exported to other countries.

For a time, stealth fighter jets from the three major powers gathered in the Middle East, and together with the huge aircraft carrier battle group cruising in the Eastern Mediterranean, the Persian Gulf, and the "Ghost" fighter scandals that erupted on land airports, added fuel to the fire. The sky above the Middle East seemed to be covered with clouds, and an unprecedented strategic contest is about to launch a sudden attack like a volcanic eruption, soaring into the sky.

The waves of war are like dust storms in the sky, spreading rampantly in the Middle East.

Li Gejian was flying in the formation at this time without distraction. He briefly reviewed the overall picture of the Middle East war situation and expressed a little emotion about Gao Meiyu's good luck in participating in the fighter jet replacement. He immediately focused his energy on the diffraction flat surface in front of him and a large vast sky.

Ah, no matter what, changing into a "Bird of Prey" will be the case these days!

However, before this, Li Gejian couldn't help but think that even if he did not cooperate tacitly, he would have to complete the combat mission with his comrades and kill the arrogance of the Syrian rebels.

In a sandstorm weather like today, there is no hope for attacking the ground or something. However, FSA is not willing to be lonely and stays in the hangar and waits for a sunny day. Compared with the inland Syria where yellow sand is everywhere, the sky in the north of this country is still clear, suitable for low-altitude fighter planes. Government forces on the ground are also fighting with the rebels. The request for air support is flying to the Air Force Command like snowflakes, and FSA's dispatch is as frequent as usual.

The Arab League of Nations is currently powerless against the sky battlefield in northern Syria, but the enemy planes that appear in the "Syrian No-fly Zone" are another matter. "Fight as soon as you see" has become the principle of action for every Alsa to hire pilots.

"All aircraft are careful, all aircraft are expected to enter the 'Syrian No-fly Zone' in 90 seconds. Now check the navigation beacons and confirm that the data communication link is normal, and prepare to carry out guidance operations."

“'St. Darwin' received, - the communication link is normal.”

"'Milan' received, - the link is normal, the navigation error has been corrected."

Seeing that the boundary of the no-fly zone was right in front, I heard the reply from my comrades one by one from the headset, Li Gejian clicked the screen to confirm that the data link between the landline and the e-3c early warning machine behind was unobstructed, and he could receive the air data forwarded by it, as well as the ground threat warning information obtained by the e-8c battlefield monitoring machine:

"The Fire Eagle received it and the communication link is normal."

After checking the communication link and getting in touch with the rear command center, the battlefield commander immediately ordered the F-15 aircraft group of the Fifth Regiment to be put into battle. More than ten "eagles" with uniform adjustments were far away from each other in the sky. Two multi-aircraft formations that changed their course entered the "Syrian No-fly Zone" from different directions.

After entering the no-fly zone, the air information on the lower view monitor continued to be refreshed, and the Alsa fleet further climbed to a height of 6,000 meters, avoiding the threat of surface-to-air missiles from the Syrian rebels by increasing the shooting margin.

Originally, this work could be done by an/apy-3 phased array radar. Special aircraft nicknamed "United Star" can guide fighters to evade missile launch positions or help them actively attack with air-opposite ammunition. But now, the ground is obscured by a sandstorm, making "United Star" battlefield surveillance aircraft have no way to spy on it. Alsa pilots are taking flight evasion according to intelligence. Anyway, the rebels do not have medium and high-altitude air defense missile systems such as S400 and "Red Flag"-9c, and they will not operate even if they have it. As long as the flight altitude is guaranteed to be more than 6,000 meters, the threat of general air defense weapons can be ignored in this yellow and shady weather.

Entering the no-fly zone from high altitude, Li Gejian, like his comrades, turned on the airborne radar and used VS mode to scan the airspace ahead.
