Chapter 294: Balloon
back row.
A look of astonishment also appeared on Liu Yun's face.
If he had just told Jiang Chen that he had flown the J-10s, he would still be skeptical.
But now I completely believe it.
nonsense.
The talented monster sitting in front of him can already fly the J-8 at a high angle for takeoff.
What's so strange about flying over J-10s?
As for Jiang Chen, he didn't think there was anything strange about his short-distance takeoff at a high angle.
He is still enjoying the thrill of flying a jet.
It’s not like Jiang Chen has never flown a jet plane before.
Last life.
He had been flying jet airliners for ten years.
But large aircraft and this small, attack-capable trainer aircraft are completely different things.
Especially mobility.
Totally different.
Take the high-angle short-distance takeoff just now as an example.
When Jiang Chen flew the J-8 to perform a short takeoff at a high pitch angle, Liu Yun in the back seat could only applaud. The controller in the tower, and even Liang Zhenghong, could only shout "beautiful".
But what if he dared to fly a civilian airliner and perform a high-angle short takeoff?
Not to mention whether it can fly, or whether the tail will hit the runway during takeoff.
Even if he really succeeds.
What awaited him was not commendation and praise, but the revocation of his pilot's license.
nonsense.
You are flying a civilian airliner, and the plane is filled with dozens or hundreds of people.
It is not a trainer, a fighter, or even a stunt plane.
As a civil aviation pilot, the first thing to do is to ensure the safety of everyone on the plane, not to show off your skills.
So even though Jiang Chen had flown for ten years in his previous life, he never had the chance to experience the thrill of a 'high-angle, short-distance takeoff'.
Climb.
Keep climbing.
The engine of this J-8 trainer aircraft made a deafening roar.
Pushing the plane to continue climbing.
After climbing to an altitude of one thousand meters, Jiang Chen pushed the stick forward and lowered his head to change to level flight.
"call"
Jiang Chen exhaled a breath of foul air.
Hungry.
"Turning point, immediately adjust the heading to 0-1-0, head to airspace No. and wait for orders."
At this moment.
The voice of the tower controller was heard in the communication channel.
Jiang Chen came back to his senses.
Immediately repeat, "Adjust course 0-1-0, head to airspace No. and wait for orders."
Airspace No. 3 is just west of Xinyang.
It is about one or two hundred kilometers away from the city center and Xinyang branch.
This area has moved away from the plains and into the mountains.
And it is the famous Dabie Mountains.
If the flight academy students have live-fire shooting training, it is in airspace No. 3.
Because the No. 3 airspace is located in the mountainous area, far away from towns, it will not affect the operational safety of Minggang Airport more than 100 kilometers away.
It is most suitable for flight training and live-fire shooting training.
However, whether it is a military unit or a military academy, live ammunition firing must be reported to the military region and reported to the Air Force Headquarters for record.
After the shooting, all the information, including shooting videos, etc., must be compiled into a case file and submitted.
There must be a clear "explanation" of how many rounds were fired and where they were fired.
Whether domestic or foreign.
The control over live ammunition is very strict.
Especially a powerful weapon like a fighter jet.
If we hadn't taken any more serious measures, the world would have been in chaos.
Take Egypt for example.
There have been cases where troops being reviewed killed the president during a military parade, and armed rebellion occurred. This has happened in any country and at any time.
The military is a double-edged sword.
The army can be a guardian god that defends the country and resists foreign humiliation, or it can be a killing god that brings chaos to the country and slaughters the people.
Therefore, any country's attitude towards the military is to use it and prevent it at the same time.
However, thanks to the fact that the Air Force University is the 'Cradle of the Republic's Air Force'.
Therefore, whether it is the military region or the Air Force Command, they are all quite "pampering" towards the Air Force.
For a small matter like temporarily firing an extra hundred or two hundred rounds of live ammunition, you can just submit a supplementary application afterwards.
"You probably haven't had the experience of firing live ammunition before. The J-8 trainer aircraft doesn't have a helmet-mounted aiming system. You can only use the fire control radar to lock or aim. It will be your turn soon. You don't need to be too anxious. Put the balloon in the attack envelope, lock it with the crosshairs, and then fire."
back row.
Liu Yun squeezed the earphones and spoke.
"Understood." Jiang Chen answered while controlling the plane.
This can also be considered a last-minute cram session.
However, what Liu Yun could never have imagined was that not only had Jiang Chen never fired live ammunition, this was even his second time flying the J-8.
Say something.
The J-8 trainer aircraft is actually an aircraft that is seriously behind the times.
As a primary or medium-sized trainer aircraft, the J-8 is qualified and even has certain attack attributes.
But it is already the year 3012.
Are there still planes that are not equipped with fire control radar?
Yes.
You heard that right.
The J-8 trainer aircraft does not have an onboard radar system, only the 'rangefinder' has certain radar properties.
As for the attack attributes.
In addition to five external attachment points for mounting weapons, only the Shemiao-7 optical sight is responsible for locking and attacking.
The instrument panel is just a HUD and multi-function display with relatively backward performance.
No matter how you look at it.
They all look like losers.
Jiang Chen had also eaten 'fine bran'.
Didn’t we ‘fly’ over the J-10s some time ago?
So in his heart, he actually looked down on the teaching-8.
But this is the only condition for Feiyuan.
You can fly or not.
and.
It would be great if you could, as a freshman, fly the J-8.
What else do you want from a bicycle?
"The J-8 does not have the ability to attack beyond visual range. It will be your turn soon. You need to find the target first, put it within the attack envelope, and then lock on and fire."
"It's easy to hit balloons. It's unlike a target drone. A target drone simulates an enemy plane in motion and its speed is relatively fast. With your strength, you don't have the ability to attack high-speed moving aircraft for the time being." Liu Yun said again.
Jiang Chen smiled and said, "It's not that we don't have the ability to attack high-speed moving aircraft, but the J-8 is too slow."
Liu Yun said angrily, "You are a scornful kid. If you think the J-8 is too lame, go fly your J-10s yourself."
"Hey, I was just saying it casually, why are you so anxious?" Jiang Chen said hurriedly.
"Hmph." Liu Yun rolled his eyes.
It means I'm too lazy to pay attention to him.
Not a moment later.
This J-8 trainer aircraft has already arrived at airspace No. .
at this time.
The six J-8 trainer aircraft in front have already started today's live-fire training.
It’s just that airspace No. 3 is larger.
The six J-8 trainer aircraft were like six drops of ink spilled into the sea.
It doesn't make any waves at all.
Jiang Chen flew the plane in circles in airspace No. 3 while waiting for the 'attack order'.
I waited for seven or eight minutes.
In the communication channel.
Finally, the tower controller's voice was heard, "Turn, adjust the heading to 2-4-0, and proceed to find out the 'air situation' and report it in time."
"Dongguai understands."
Jiang Chen was in high spirits.
After adjusting the course of the J-8, it roared towards another mountainous area.
