Chapter 383: Wingman Must Have Wingman Awareness

It raced on for about twenty seconds.

Wang Zhihe quickly turned off the afterburner, allowing the plane's speed to quickly drop to 0.8 Mach.

The J-7E fighter is not a fifth-generation aircraft and cannot achieve supercruise. It can only achieve supersonic flight when the afterburner is turned on.

This is because aircraft fuel is limited. Generally speaking, one minute of afterburner operation is equivalent to a reduction of five to ten minutes of flight time.

If the aircraft maintains supersonic speed for more than five minutes, it will have to return.

If the plane doesn't return, it might run out of fuel and crash.

Moreover, frequently increasing the afterburner will cause damage to the aircraft engine.

Well known.

Fighter aircraft engines all have a 'lifespan'.

Extending the afterburner for a long time will increase the temperature of the turbine disc, which will cause the engine components to melt and reduce the engine's "life".

Therefore, except for the fifth-generation aircraft, other supersonic fighters cannot maintain supersonic speed for a long time.

It is only used in air combat or during high-speed penetration or high-speed interception.

Now it is neither an air combat nor a high-speed penetration or high-speed interception.

Therefore, Wang Zhihe added the afterburner for more than twenty seconds and maintained the supersonic state for more than twenty seconds, which was already very "willful".

He glanced down at the onboard radar screen.

He discovered that his 'wingman' had caught up with him.

A look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

This kid!
I can actually keep up with my own pace.

He is indeed quite capable.

"Dongdongyao, tune to 335.28, contact East Command, accept its command, wish you all the best, over!"

At this moment.

Chief of Staff Zhao Rongyuan, who was in charge of the tower, also came to his senses and issued the last order.

Wang Zhihe immediately repeated, "Dongdongyao received, tune to 335.28, contact Dongzhi, accept its command, over!"

After hanging up the connection with the tower.

He immediately adjusted the communication channel and called Dongzhi, "Dongzhi, Dongdongyao calling."

Soon, a strange voice sounded in the communication channel, "Dongdongyao, Dongyaoguai, I have seen you on the radar."

"Adjust course 250, rush to airspace number 5, and report to the East Command after finding out the air situation as soon as possible."

Wang Zhihe confirmed the order, "Adjust the course to 250, rush to airspace No. 5, find out the air situation as soon as possible and report to the East Command. I understand!"

After hanging up the contact with Dongzhi.

Wang Zhihe then asked, "How is it? Do you feel a little confused?"

This sentence was obviously meant for Jiang Chen to hear.

Jiang Chen thought about it and immediately replied, "It's OK. There is a flight command class in the freshman year. The main content of this class is the communication and command between the pilot and the ground."

“Haha.” Wang Zhihe laughed dryly twice, then said, “It’s been nearly 20 years since I graduated. I almost forgot what courses I studied in college.”

"Captain, there is a question I don't quite understand?" Jiang Chen suddenly asked.

Wang Zhihe immediately replied, "Ask. We still have nearly 20 minutes to reach Airspace No. 5. I hope I can answer your question clearly within 20 minutes."

"It won't take twenty minutes." Jiang Chen said as he carefully controlled the plane.

He knew Wang Zhihe did it on purpose.

Deliberately distract him by chatting.

Then see if he can effectively control the plane and keep up with his own pace when his attention is distracted.

As of now.

Wang Zhihe was quite satisfied with Jiang Chen's performance.

"Even if the Air Force Headquarters clearly knew that the 'Wang Hai Squadron' had an important mission to perform today, why did they still conduct a temporary spot check in the northeastern airspace and send Li Chenguang and others to the No. 2 airspace to deal with the simulated air situation?" Jiang Chen asked.

This was what he couldn't figure out the most.

"Wang Hai Brigade" clearly has an important mission to perform today.

The 9th Flying Regiment of the Wang Hai Squadron is conducting its annual large-scale transition training.

Therefore, there are almost no available soldiers at Wanli Station.

But the Air Force Command still wanted to do this. They asked Li Chenguang and others on combat readiness duty to rush to the No. 2 airspace to deal with the simulated air situation.

Isn't this just intentional trouble?

After hearing Jiang Chen's question, Wang Zhihe was stunned at first.

Then he smiled and said, "Isn't there a popular saying among you young people recently? This is the best answer."

"Which sentence?"

"If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!"

"what?"

"not understand?"

"Oh, I see. I understand." Jiang Chen finally reacted.

Tsk tsk.

They are worthy of being called the 'Royal Guard of the Air'.

Kong Si really gave me face.

They unexpectedly carried out a random check at such an important moment and provided a simulated enemy situation.

This is equivalent to being kicked in the ass by "Wang Hai Brigade" when it is convenient.

They even gave it a nice name - they wanted to test the waist strength of 'Wang Hai Brigade'.

In fact, the Air Force Headquarters wanted to check whether the "Wang Hai Brigade" was capable of handling emergencies in such extremely urgent situations.

In the army.

The more elite the troops are, the more brutal the training will be.

So Wang Zhihe said he had already gotten used to it.

This is also the reason why he used a very childish internet slang to answer Jiang Chen's question.

Because although this internet meme is very childish, it is actually the best answer.

A few minutes later.

Two J-7E fighter jets rushed to airspace No. .

Wang Zhihe contacted the East Command again and learned that the unidentified aircraft had disappeared from the radar screen.

It is not known whether it is returning or descending to avoid detection by its own radar.

The East Command only knew the approximate location of the target, so the two J-7Es could only adjust their course and search while descending in altitude.

suddenly!

Jiang Chen saw a small black dot flash by on the airborne radar screen.

He immediately called Wang Zhihe, "Dongdongyao, I think I found the target, at the three o'clock direction."

When Wang Zhihe heard his voice, he immediately turned his head and looked towards the three o'clock direction.

But at three o'clock there was nothing but the vast ocean and a few white clouds.

However, Wang Zhihe did not doubt that Jiang Chen had seen it wrong.

Because the J-7E fighter is equipped with a Doppler fire control radar with a detection range of about kilometers.

The human eye cannot detect a target fifty kilometers away.

"Dongyaoguai, I'll cut over and you cover me." Wang Zhihe retracted his gaze and gave orders.

Jiang Chen was about to step on the accelerator and rush forward.

After hearing Wang Zhihe's instructions, he immediately braked and said, "Understood."

Wang Zhihe contacted the East Command, "East Command, the target has been found, over." Then he completed the turn and galloped towards the three o'clock direction.

By the time he had finished turning, Dongzhi had already replied, "Complete the expulsion according to the law, over!"

"clear."

Behind Wang Zhihe.

Jiang Chen also completed the turn smoothly.

A wingman must have the awareness of a wingman.

In this situation, it is necessary to reach a high altitude to cover the actions of the lead aircraft.
