The strongest pilot ever

Chapter 113 A Bad Feeling

113 bad feeling

Chen Fei and Li Donghai flew unhurriedly.

They fly according to the route required by their superiors.

But sometimes there are discrepancies, but the deviation is not very large. The reason for the deviation is not because they are too poor in technology to fly according to the route, but because they flew to some special places and need to go and have a look.

The battle last night is over, but the wounds left behind are shocking. Some mountains have been cut off by more than half, some places have been blown up to reveal huge potholes, and some places are still burning. Of course, sometimes Smoky wreckage was still visible, some of our fighters, but more alien fighters.

In a valley, Chen Fei saw a relatively well-preserved alien fighter.

Although he destroyed two alien fighter planes last night, because of the darkness and the distance, he didn't see what the alien fighter planes were like, but now, he saw them.

The alien fighter has forward-swept wings, which looks a little weird.

When it comes to forward-swept wing fighters, our first reaction is usually the Russian Su-47 "Golden Eagle" test aircraft.

This type of aircraft began to be developed in the 20s, and then flew for the first time on September 80, 1997. It is one of the technical verification aircraft of Russia's fifth-generation fighter. valuable experimental data and technical experience.Its maximum level flight speed reaches Mach 9.

苏-47的主翼前掠角达到37度，是第一种配备武器的前掠翼喷气战机，固定武器包括一门30毫米Gsh-30-1航炮, 还配有内置弹舱, 可发射R-27格斗导弹或R-77中距空空导弹。

The F/A-37 "Taw" stealth fighter in the sci-fi air combat movie "Top Secret Flight" adopts a more advanced jackknife wing design, which is actually a foldable forward-swept wing design, but it can cruise at high speed. The outer main wings are folded close to the fuselage to further reduce air resistance.

The earliest airplanes, as we all know, had straight wings, basically the wings were perpendicular to the fuselage, with no forward or aft angle of attack.

This design hits a bottleneck when approaching the sound barrier.

In order to break through the sound barrier, there are two schemes of forward sweep and backward sweep.

So in fact, during World War II, when countries were designing high-speed aircraft, the research on forward-swept wings and swept-back wings was actually carried out at the same time.

Needless to say, the swept wing has good high-speed performance and mainstream technology.However, the problem with the swept wing is that it has poor low-speed performance and low lift. For this reason, a bunch of methods such as large delta wing, canard wing, and variable swept wing have been developed to solve this problem.

The forward-swept wing also has good lift at low speeds, because the center of gravity is more reasonable, so the maneuverability is also high, and the roll and vertical maneuvers are also more agile.There are many advantages in performance.

But the forward-swept wing has a fatal problem-bending and diverging.

For forward-swept wings, the forward-stretched wing will be twisted by the airflow during flight, and then this twist will increase the angle of attack of the wing, which in turn will increase the torque on the wing of the aircraft.

To give a simple example, when you hold a book and face the wind with the back side of the book, the pages will not be opened when the wind blows. On the contrary, the stronger the wind, the tighter and harder the pages will be pulled.And if you turn the pages of the book to face the wind, you only need to open the book a little bit, and it will be blown away.The former is similar to the situation of the swept wing, and the latter is similar to the situation of the forward swept wing.

To solve this problem of twisting and diverging, it is necessary to increase the weight of the structure or limit the angle of attack of the flight. The increased weight of the former is enough to offset the performance advantages of the forward-swept wing, and the latter also brings great safety hazards. Therefore, forward-swept wing technology has always been unable to become a mainstream technology.

Fade Chen didn't expect that the alien fighter plane turned out to have this kind of forward-swept wings.

In the battle last night, many alien warplanes must have been knocked down to the ground. After collecting them and studying them carefully, maybe our aviation industry can make a big breakthrough again!
Fade Chen thought while flying.

"Ying Long, enter the complex valley area five kilometers ahead, please pay attention to safety, it's over!" Fade Chen was looking here and there, when the voice of pointing fingers suddenly sounded on the radio.

"Ying Long received it, five kilometers ahead into a complex valley!" Fade Chen repeated.

After that, he turned his head and glanced at Li Donghai, and the guy gave him a thumbs up.

Fade Chen continued to move forward at an altitude of 4500 meters according to the preset course, maintaining a medium speed.

The radar warning device flickered a few times from time to time, and every time it sounded, Fade Chen would look at it, but these were the G-band radio signals emitted by ground navigation radars or XX missile positions.

Of course, it stands to reason that there should be no radar signals from alien fighters today, but Fade Chen still warned himself to be more careful.

After flying forward for a while, the majestic snow-capped mountains were faintly visible. Next, Fade Chen and Li Donghai were going to fly over the tops of these mountains.

"Yinlong, go up to the altitude, be careful of the airflow, it's over!" Fade Chen reminded.

"Understood!" Li Donghai agreed, and immediately pulled the lever to pull up his J-[-]C. In this way, they formed a formation of one high and one low. Li Donghai was cruising at high altitude, while Chen Fei was cruising at the top of the mountain.

After flying forward for a while, Fade Chen suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Since destroying two alien fighter planes last night, he has picked up the attribute of the sixth sense. The so-called sixth sense is simply intuition, and it can also be said to be the early warning of the human body. There will be a feeling.

At this time, Fade Chen's sixth sense issued an early warning, and there seemed to be something happening ahead.

He froze for a moment, and after recovering, he slightly pressed the stick, lowered the height of the plane a little, no longer flew from the top of the mountain, but flew through the canyon.

Fade Chen lowered his height a little, and he said with joint fingers: "Ying Long, your height has dropped too much!"

"Lian Zhi, I want to fly among the valleys, I always feel that something will happen in these valleys, over!"

The radio was silent for a while, and then said: "You are allowed to fly in the valley, pay attention to safety! It's over!"

"Ying Long received it, it's over!" Fade Chen replied, and immediately descended again.

He glanced at the radar warning device from time to time, but there was nothing special about it.

"Yinlong, did your radar alarm detect it?"

"No, it's normal!" Li Donghai replied.

"Be careful, for some reason, I have a feeling of uneasiness in my heart! It's over!"

"Understood!" Li Donghai replied, and his relaxed nerves tensed up.

There is no basis for what Fade Chen said, but to be honest, after being a pilot for a long time, you will actually be a little suspicious, and you will even believe in mysterious things and some superstitions. This is why some people joke that you should pay more attention to aerodynamics in the initial stage of being a pilot , At the intermediate stage, you have to read more Buddhist scriptures and so on. Many things seem to be really destined.

Many pilots trust intuition, and Fade Chen and Donghai Li are no exception.

After flying for a while, Fade Chen felt more and more uneasy, so he asked by radio: "Jianzhi, how is the situation nearby? Is there an early warning aircraft in the sky above us? Finished?"

Fade Chen knew that there might be early warning aircraft in the high altitude in this area, but unfortunately there is no data link on their J-[-]C, otherwise he could directly call the data of the early warning aircraft. Now, he can only ask the joint command.

"There is no early warning aircraft, but the ground radar reports that everything is normal! Over!" said the joint finger.

After flying for a while, Fade Chen said: "Jianzhi, request to turn on the fire control radar."

The radio was silent for a while, and then said: "Allow to turn on the fire control radar, over!"

"Ying Long received it, turn on the fire control radar."
