Siheyuan: Originally I just wanted to be a little transparent

Everyone looked at the raised Tri-3 Raptor fighter and already understood. Now just a simple taxiing takeoff can show how excellent the performance of this fighter is.

It can be said that just the maneuverability shown in front of you can beat all the fighters currently in service.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Boss Zheng coughed and signaled everyone to stop the discussion.

After all, the highlight today is the Raptor fighter's Cobra maneuver.

Although Lin Shengli had already introduced the principles yesterday, the principles alone seemed vague to everyone, and they were not as solid as seeing them with their own eyes.

When the No. 3 Raptor fighter jet passed over the tower for the first time, everyone was attracted by the graceful appearance of the fighter jet in the sky.

Lin Shengli picked up the radio and asked: "No. 3, what is your current situation? Can you start the maneuver?"

As Lin Shengli finished speaking, the answer from Trial No. 3 came over the radio.

"Report, everything is normal on Trial-3 and can perform maneuvers. The next time the aircraft passes the scene, I will perform Cobra maneuvers."

Hearing the voice coming from the radio, everyone knew that the long-awaited Cobra maneuver would be performed the next time Trial-3 flew over the base.

Everyone unanimously picked up the telescopes in their hands and waited for the arrival of Z-3.

Soon, Tri-3, which had flown around in a circle, once again flew over the air force base.

Through the telescope, everyone saw that the speed of Air Test-3 dropped sharply. At the same time, it showed the movement of the nose up and the tail down, like a cobra ready to go.

This action did not last long and passed quickly. However, the shocked expressions on the faces of those who watched this action could not be dissipated for a long time.

Just listen to Boss Zheng murmuring to himself: "What a cobra maneuver! It's really like a cobra that is ready to attack at any time!"

“From the very beginning of takeoff and taxiing, it can be seen that the performance of this fighter aircraft is very excellent!

"I didn't expect that he could be so powerful. I really want to try flying this plane myself!"

Later, a comrade behind Mr. Zheng also sighed: "Yes!"

"I didn't expect that I would see such a powerful fighter plane in my lifetime!"

"It's our country's own, which is really a blessing!"

Soon, the Tri-3 Raptor fighter jet, after completing the maneuver, returned smoothly and landed the fighter plane steadily on the runway.

As the fighter plane stopped, everyone's eyes looked towards the direction of the fighter plane with great curiosity.

After all, it was the first time for many people to see the maneuver just now.

But many people present are from the aviation team themselves, and can be said to be experts in this field.

The so-called insiders look at the door, while laymen look at the excitement.

These people in the industry clearly understand that the Cobra maneuver just now cannot be accomplished by relying solely on the powerful performance of the fighter plane itself.

To complete such a difficult maneuver, in addition to the powerful performance of the fighter aircraft itself, it also requires a pilot with excellent driving skills and strong psychological quality.

Therefore, everyone is sincerely curious about the pilot who can fly this difficult maneuver.

When the pilot who was driving the Test-3 Raptor fighter jet got off the plane and took off his helmet, many people present were stunned.

"Go ahead, isn't this Wang Wei from the Third Brigade?" (A tribute to our heroic pilot.)

"The shocking action just now was actually made by him!"

"Isn't this Wang Wei the ace pilot of the third team?"

"I remember he was driving the latest Fifth Generation aircraft. How come he is now driving a third-generation aircraft like the Raptor?"

Seeing that many comrades at the scene were so surprised, Boss Zheng explained:

"This is indeed Comrade Wang Wei from the Third Brigade of the Aviation Force of the Forty-Nine City Military Region."

"Some time ago, Director Lin was in urgent need of test pilots for third-generation aircraft, so he seconded Comrade Wang Wei and several other comrades."

"You didn't expect it!"

"The pilot who just made that difficult maneuver came from our side."

You can tell from Brother Zheng's words that he is in a very happy mood now.

After all, in all teams, there are few ace pilots, but if each military region can collect a dozen or twenty, there are still some.

Not to mention anything else, Lin Shengli currently has this temporary special test squadron with 15 pilots, Yishui's ace pilot.

However, currently, there are only three people who can fly the cobra maneuver with 100% proficiency.

One of these came from him.

After that, when I chatted with people from other troops, this was somewhat exaggerated.

Boss Zheng has already thought about what to say: "One of the first three pilots who can perform the Cobra maneuver came from me, haha, what do you think? I'm envious!"

Thinking about it makes me feel happy!

Just when everyone was still shocked by the performance of the Raptor fighter jets and how the pilots who came out of them could fly such difficult maneuvers, a person walked quietly to Boss Zheng's side and asked in a low voice:

"Leader, according to the importance of our military region, after the Raptors are finalized and mass-produced, we will definitely be the first to be installed."

"And I think the Raptors flying over this time are already finalized models, right?"

"I think these fighters will be ready for us soon. Then you can see if the first batch of fighters can be assigned to our brigade first. After all, Comrade Wang Wei came from our brigade."

"When he comes back, he can be a training instructor for our brigade. In this way, we can also form combat effectiveness as soon as possible."

The man who spoke was Liu Qianjin, the captain of the Third Brigade of an aviation unit of the Fourth-Nine City Military Region, the unit to which Comrade Wang Wei previously belonged.

Everyone who was still shocked when they heard that Liu Qianjin was interested in these Raptors all said one after another:

"I said, Lao Liu, why should I give you the third brigade first? In terms of serial number, our second brigade is also ranked in front of your third brigade."

"Even if we need to change our clothes, our Second Brigade must be here first."

"Hey, Lao Liu, you have a big face. If you say so, Comrade Huang Aimin of our Fourth Brigade is also one of the seconded ace pilots. Why can't he be replaced by our Fourth Brigade first? Dress up." "I said you should do it one by one. I would say, whether it is from the sequence or the ace pilots selected, our first team must be the first to change the clothes."

"You know, our first team is an old team. None of you are expanded from our original first team."

The current Raptor fighter jets have basically completed the final test flight, but the superiors have not officially issued an order for the Raptor fighter jets to be mass-produced and then installed in the troops.

It is estimated that the superiors are waiting to see the results of this National Day military parade. If it is completed well, the next step, the 15 Raptors that flew to Sijiucheng this time, should be almost ready to be deployed to the troops on the spot. .

After that, large-scale mass production will definitely begin.

But now, everything has not yet been decided. These people have already begun to argue about who will change clothes first. This makes Lin Shengli very surprised.

So Lin Shengli turned to Boss Zheng and asked: "Leader Zheng, it has been decided from above. Are you going to change the clothes first?"

Hearing Lin Shengli's question, Boss Zheng couldn't help but blush.

Just kidding, the superiors have not yet officially issued an order that the Raptor fighter jets can be finalized for mass production and officially fielded. How can this unfinished fighter jet be discussed and deployed to those troops first?

If we want to discuss this issue, we have to wait until there is official news from our superiors!

Seeing that the people below him were arguing and almost performing martial arts, Boss Zheng hurriedly scolded:

"Okay, everyone, please calm down and take a look at what each of you looks like. Do you still look like a senior commander?"

"There has not yet been a formal order issued by the higher authorities regarding the finalization and mass production of the Raptor fighter jets. The higher authorities have not yet discussed and studied the fielding of the Raptors. You should be anxious to get started."

"Besides, such a big thing as changing clothes can be decided by just you guys making a lot of noise here?"

"After the Raptor fighter jets are officially finalized and mass-produced, the superiors will discuss and study who will be installed first. The superiors must have considered everything. Why are you worrying so much here?"

After hearing Boss Zheng's scolding, everyone became quiet.

Just thinking about the excellent performance of the Raptor fighter jets and the fact that 15 of them suddenly appeared, everyone thought that these were already finalized and mass-produced. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many of them.

But after listening to Boss Zheng's words, everyone remembered that this was a fighter jet that the superiors had not officially ordered to finalize and mass-produce, and then it could be installed in the army.

Even though there are already 15 Raptor fighter jets, but the superiors have not issued a formal order for a day, this Raptor fighter jet is still under development and testing.

Thinking of this, everyone who was noisy just now couldn't help but blush.

"Okay, don't be embarrassed here. You've all finished watching the show and dispersed. Director Lin and I have some other things to do here."

After the visitors below left, Mr. Zheng said to Lin Shengli: "Comrade Shengli, the action of our Raptor fighter jet just now scared me to death."

"Just by looking at it, you can tell how difficult that action is."

"Are you sure that the other two comrade pilots can also perform this action 100%?"

Lin Shengli nodded and said: "Leader Zheng, don't worry about this. The other two comrade pilots have flown this action at least dozens of times. There will be no problems."

"Again, if it weren't for the sake of safety, I would have wanted all 15 of our fighter planes to fly this maneuver together."

Hearing this, Boss Zheng quickly said: "No, it's better to be safe."

"Since we don't have any problems here, let's settle it as we agreed before."

"The three Raptor fighter jets that perform specialized maneuver missions are flying at the forefront as the leaders of your air flight formation."

"After flying over the city tower, quickly go around to the rear of the formation. When passing over the city tower again, the three fighter planes will perform this cobra maneuver at the same time."

"I will report to the superiors immediately and finalize this plan."

After finishing speaking, Boss Zheng hurriedly went to report.

Although he was the on-site commander-in-chief of this military parade, such a big change had to be reported to the superiors.

The situation reported by Boss Zheng was immediately approved by the superiors.

After receiving the formal approval, Boss Zheng immediately informed Lin Shengli of the news.

In this way, in addition to regular performances during the National Day military parade, the Raptors also performed a special performance of the Cobra maneuver.

Time flies by so fast, and in a blink of an eye, it’s the day of the National Day performance.

At four o'clock in the morning that morning, Lin Shengli and the comrades of the air combat team participating in the National Day performance arrived at the runway of the air force base in Sijiu City early.

Ground crews are seizing the time to conduct final inspections of the Raptor fighter jets that are about to conduct a military parade.

These comrade pilots who got up early were all called by Lin Shengli to have breakfast and replenish their energy.

Isn't there a saying that only when you are full can you have fighting power?

The pilots, who had eaten and drank enough, closed their eyes and rested in the preparation room, waiting for the final moment to get on the plane.

Taking advantage of this time, Wang Gong and Xu Aiguo, together with the ground crews brought from the Rongcheng base and the support staff from the air force base here, quickly mounted the produced missile model on the Raptor fighter jet.

Although the mounted missile is only a model, it is actually the latest air-to-air missile jointly developed by several scientific research institutions.

This missile was also specially developed for the Raptors in order to adapt to the combat methods of third-generation aircraft.

Of course, Lin Shengli also contributed a lot of wonderful ideas here.

Considering that the Raptor fighter has not yet undergone formal actual combat testing, for the sake of safety, live ammunition is not mounted, but only the model is mounted.

But don’t underestimate this model. Apart from not being able to launch, it can definitely look fake.

Moreover, this fighter plane is flying in the sky. Who has such good eyesight that can distinguish between true and false without launching missiles?

Therefore, regardless of whether it is true or false, as long as it can achieve the purpose of shocking Xiao Xiao.

Of course, except for this newly developed missile, which is mounted in a model, the other weapons and equipment on the Raptor fighter are all real.

Especially the semi-submerged double-barreled 23mm cannon of the Raptor (a flower-planting version of Da Mao's GSh-23 cannon), which is located on the left side of the front landing gear below the air inlet, but has sufficient ammunition. (End of chapter)
