You were asked to repeat your senior year of high school, and you took advantage of the opportunity

Chapter 715 Tomorrow's exercise is to hone tactics, not to win
"Master, why does this Jianqiao Airport seem so messy?"

Jiang Chen just jumped out of the cockpit of the J-20 Vily Dragon.

He looked at Xiao Yun and complained, "When I landed just now, I saw several light sports aircraft parked over there. I saw a banner that said 'Xiangyun Flying Club'. Isn't this a military airport?"

Xiao Yun took off his flight helmet.

Then he said, "This airport will soon be closed down. It used to be a secondary airport of the First Air Division and has a long history. It was converted from an artillery training ground to a military airport in 1931."

"Then in 1956, the Civil Aviation Administration planned to build a civil aviation station at Jianqiao Airport and opened a civil aviation airport. In 1971, when Nixon visited China, the 'Air Force One' he took landed at this airport."

"Later, in 2000, the Jianqiao Airport was changed from a joint military and civilian airport to a military one."

"The First Air Division was stationed here for several years, but later it was handed over to the Navy."

He pointed to the hangar over there and continued, "See that hangar over there? I guess there are still a few Flying Leopards parked in it."

"However, HNA has also been undergoing military reforms in recent years, especially the HNA Regiment, which has been refitting and deploying ships, so the role of land airports is not as great as before."

"So the Jiangqiao Airport was gradually downgraded from a first-class airport to a second-class airport."

"But because the airport is so large, it would be a pity to leave it empty, so in 2013 the local government took back part of the airport's use rights, turned it into a low-cost airline base, and then rented it out to some aviation clubs."

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, "It would be fine if it was converted into a civilian airport, but why rent it to the Aviation Club? What if someone uses the Aviation Club as a cover to gather intelligence?"

"It's impossible to spy." Xiao Yun said with a smile, "The Naval Aviation Group has almost abandoned this airport. It is only used as a backup airport for large-scale transfer training. Now even the garrison area of ​​this airport has been reduced, and there are only about a hundred people stationed here."

"These hundred or so people probably won't be able to stay for long."

"Maybe in a year or two they will all be removed, and the airport will be handed over to the local government."

"So what should we do in the next two days?" Jiang Chen asked. "I have learned a few days of aircraft repair and maintenance. But a good cook cannot cook without rice. There is no oil in the oil depot and no ammunition in the ammunition depot. How can we conduct the exercise tomorrow?"

It's not just Jiang Chen.

Ma Shankui and Li Chenguang also looked at Xiao Yun with confusion.

Xiao Yun laughed and scolded, "If you can't even arrange such a small matter, what's the point of conducting an exercise tomorrow?"

"Don't worry, there is ammunition in the ammunition depot at Jianqiao Airport, and there is oil in the oil depot. A squadron of the maintenance brigade will also rush over from Wanli Airport in a while to escort us throughout tomorrow's exercise."

Listen to him.

Jiang Chen finally felt relieved.

Tomorrow's exercise is simple to say.

That is, the 'blue team' sailing out of Zhejiang Province encountered the 'red team' sailing out of Jiangsu Province in the East China Sea.

The red and blue sides are under the command of their respective ground command centers and airborne early warning aircraft.

Conduct a live-fire confrontation exercise.

The exercise is over.

The red and blue sides each conducted aerial refueling and replenishment.

Then rush to their respective designated airspace to complete live-fire target training.

The target drone to be shot down tomorrow is the latest stealth unmanned target drone developed by AVIC.

The drone is slow, but its stealth performance is not bad.

It is the best time to test-fire the J-20 Mighty Dragon. After several people walked to the flight briefing room, Xiao Yun put the flight helmet on the table, then looked at Jiang Chen and asked, "How will tomorrow's exercise be conducted? You set the tone first, and we will all listen to you."

Jiang Chen laughed and said, "Oh, I dare not set this tone. What if you say I am disrespectful to my elders?"

"Get lost." Xiao Yun said unhappily, "You have been disrespectful to your elders many times, and now you are being humble?"

"Just make it if I tell you to. Why are you wasting your time talking?"

Li Chenguang also said, "When you attacked the Wanli Station some time ago, you didn't give your master any face at all. Now you are respecting your master?"

"Stop trying to sow discord between us as master and disciple. How can you sow discord between me and my master with just a few words?" Jiang Chen immediately retorted.

Xiao Yun sneered, "Yeah, it's not good even if you don't stir up trouble."

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. The red team is not easy to play against. You know Lao Wang's strength. He will lead the team tomorrow."

Jiang Chen thought about it.

Then he said, "How else can we fight? We are all crossing the river by feeling the stones, practicing and exploring new tactics, so the only thing I can think of is to adapt to the situation, that's all."

Xiao Yun thought about it, then nodded slightly and said, "Yes, we can only adapt to the situation as it arises."

Ma Shankui interrupted, "The tactics of the fifth-generation aircraft are really plain and simple, with little room for maneuver. Tomorrow we can only fire missiles at each other from hundreds of kilometers away under the guidance of the early warning aircraft. In other words, the role of the early warning aircraft is much greater than ours."

Xiao Yun sighed, "Yes, now planes are getting smarter and missiles can hit farther and farther. I guess if we put a dog in the cockpit, it can shoot as well as us."

Jiang Chen reached out and patted his shoulder, "Master, don't be so self-deprecating. You are much better than a dog."

"Get out! You were respectful to me just now, but now you're calling me a dog?" Xiao Yun reached out and hit me.

Jiang Chen quickly dodged.

Then he said, "Actually, I do have a way to win, but it's not necessary."

The other people immediately looked over to him.

Jiang Chen shrugged and said, "Modern air combat is a system war and an information war. The advantages are obvious, but the disadvantages are also obvious. As long as we find a way to destroy the Red Army's command center, won't we win without fighting?"

Xiao Yun immediately asked, "You mean, to shoot down the Red Army's early warning aircraft?"

"if not."

"That's not a good fight."

"What's so difficult about fighting?" Jiang Chen said, "Whether you or Lao Wang, you have never suffered a real beating. So whether it's our or the Red Army's early warning aircraft, they will definitely be very close to the front line, at most a few hundred kilometers away. As long as I go around, there is a certain probability that I can find the Red Army's early warning aircraft."

"But if it's really that big, tomorrow's live-fire confrontation exercise won't make much sense."

"Our main goal tomorrow is to hone our tactics, not to win."

Xiao Yun thought about it.

I think what Jiang Chen said makes sense.

Then he said, "Okay, then tomorrow we will fight each other, soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, and no more conspiracies or tricks."
