Chapter 300 To fight or not to fight?
The weather is not very good today.

Do not!
It should be said that the weather changes too quickly.

It was sunny to cloudy in the morning, but now it has turned cloudy.

A large cloud was carried southward by the northwest wind.

Now the whole Xinyang is almost covered by it.

However, this level of weather still does not affect the flight safety of the aircraft.

nonsense.

If it is cloudy, it will affect the flight safety of the aircraft.

So out of 365 days in a year, it is estimated that only a few dozen days are suitable for flying.

It is now twelve thirty in the morning.

Jiang Chen piloted the blue and white J-8 trainer aircraft and plunged into the clouds.

After he piloted the plane to climb more than a thousand meters, he finally broke through the cloud barrier.

The dazzling sunlight shines on the clouds.

It's like a golden ocean.

Jiang Chen flew the plane freely over the golden ocean.

Like an albatross that loves to chase the waves.

"Dongguai, the target has now drifted to airspace No. 1. Immediately adjust the course to 4-2-. After arriving at airspace No. , search and advance at a slow speed. After discovering the target, ask for instructions before opening fire."

At this moment.

Liang Zhenghong's voice was heard again on the communication channel.

"Understood." Jiang Chen agreed immediately.

Fly the plane to complete the turn in the air.

Turn around and head south.

Dive into the clouds again.

Airspace No. 1 is south of Xinyang.

It is already close to the Jianghuai region.

Tsk tsk.

The evil wind is really strong today.

In just over two hours, several balloon targets were blown to such a far place.

Fortunately, these balloon targets all have positioning devices.

The tower can keep track of it.

otherwise.

Even if Jiang Chen was given ten days or half a month, he might not be able to find these balloon targets.

We flew about a hundred kilometers south.

Jiang Chen has entered airspace No. 1.

He immediately pressed forward and lowered his head.

While descending in altitude, the speed brake was also opened halfway to slow down the speed.

The weather in Airspace No. 1 has obviously improved a lot.

There is no cloud cover.

The sun shines directly on the earth.

Visibility is also much clearer.

back row.

Liu Yun also noticed that the speed of the plane dropped to about half of its cruising speed in an instant.

I couldn't help but remind him, "Jiang Chen, pay attention to the speed."

Jiang Chen glanced at the airspeed indicator.

Still under your control,

So I immediately replied, "I understand, no problem."

As long as there is no turbulent airflow that interferes with the aircraft's attitude balance, a slower speed is not a big deal.

Jiang Chen agreed.

Only then did he look around for his target.

unconsciously.

He flew forward about twenty kilometers.

The altitude also dropped from more than 3,000 meters to 700 to 800 meters.

Thanks to the guidance of the tower, Jiang Chen did not have to spend much effort to see the first target.

"Tower, we've found the first balloon target. Should we attack it?" Jiang Chen reported.

Liang Dong did not hesitate at all, "Hit, pay attention to the speed and height."

"Yes."

Get the order to fire.

Jiang Chen immediately flew the plane towards the balloon target.

However, when he approached the balloon target, he found that he had unknowingly arrived above a town.

Both the Central Plains and the Jianghuai regions are densely populated areas in my country.

It has been a land of fish and rice since ancient times.

So it's not uncommon to see a town down there. Ugh!
It's not uncommon to see a town below.

But Jiang Chen was in a dilemma.

One reason is that the height of the balloon target is too low, only two or three hundred meters.

Second, there is a densely populated area below.

What if a safety accident occurs if live ammunition is rashly used in a densely populated area?
and.

Since the balloon target was too low, Jiang Chen could only lower the altitude and fire diagonally upwards.

This will prevent stray bullets from hitting the ground.

But if this is the case.

He has to fly lower than the balloon target.

Oh shit!

To fight or not to fight?
If you play, you will have to take certain risks.

If you don't shoot it, who knows where this balloon target will be blown to by the wind?
This place is not far from the Yangtze River Delta.

The Yangtze River Delta is one of the most economically developed regions in the Republic and also the area with the densest flight routes.

There are countless flights passing through this place every day.

If this balloon target ever floats onto a civil aviation take-off or landing route, it will always be a safety hazard.

What if it really hits a plane?

Responsibility is a small matter.

Hundreds of lives are a big deal.

Think of this.

Jiang Chen's heart was made up!
beat!
dozens of kilometers away.

Two Su-30MKK fighter jets were rushing towards this airspace at lightning speed.

Just ten minutes ago.

An alarm suddenly sounded at Wuhu Wanli Station.

The ground radar suddenly issued an early warning.

Three slow-moving UFOs suddenly floated over from the northeast of Wanli Station.

According to the analysis of relevant departments.

These three slow-moving 'UFOs' are probably three balloons or unmanned airships.

But because the 'UFO' is about to enter the Yangtze River Delta region.

Therefore, the superiors ordered the "Wang Hai Squadron" stationed at the Wanli Station to urgently take off two combat-ready fighter jets and rush to deal with the situation.

The detection of air defense radar is still relatively accurate.

Even small aircraft such as balloons or unmanned airships cannot escape the radar's "eagle eyes".

In recent decades, the Republic Air Force has positioned itself as a defensive air force.

Since we need to defend.

First of all, you have to be able to 'discover'.

Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the Republic Air Force radar unit has always been very strong.

As early as the 117s, the ability to detect the F- stealth attack aircraft was already available.

As for the construction of radar forces of the three services.

The Air Force radar unit has always been at the forefront.

However, due to the extremely high confidentiality of this branch of the military, it is not widely publicized and is therefore little known.

Just like Lao Lu’s electronic jamming unit, in terms of confidentiality, no matter how powerful the special forces are, they can’t compare to it.

"Lovebird, tower calling, received, please reply." In the cockpit of a Su-30MKK fighter, a pilot in his thirties heard the voice on the communication channel and immediately replied, "Lovebird received, go ahead."

"It has been verified that the 'UFO' is indeed the balloon target released by the Air Force University today, and that plane was also sent by the Air Force University itself to 'hunt down' the balloon target. You can go and take a look, and help if you need help."

Hear the announcement from the tower.

The pilot suddenly felt a little bored.

Just as the two Su-30MKKs were rushing to the 'incident airspace'.

Ground radar detected another aircraft.

Judging from the radar reflection surface, this aircraft is a J-8 trainer aircraft.

Since it is a J-8 trainer aircraft.

Then they should be friendly forces.

So the Wanli base reported the situation and ordered two Su-30MKKs to continue the investigation.

A few minutes later.

The two Su-30MKK fighters have already arrived at the "incident airspace".

And when they looked down.

A blue and white J-8 trainer aircraft was flying at low altitude with its head raised upwards.

When aiming at a balloon target in an upward attack.

There was a smile on everyone's face.

How dare they fly such an outdated trainer aircraft as the J-8 to attack upwards at an ultra-low altitude?
The pilot is pretty fierce.

Ha ha!

interesting!
