Changkong Fighter

Chapter 74 Remarks on the launch
Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron, and now it has started from scratch.

The previous book was hastily concluded due to the subject matter. I learned from the lessons of the previous book and with the help of the editor (I am very grateful to the editor), I finally wrote another 15 words. It’s time to put it on the shelves!

We promised to update tonight!
As for the schedule, we will set a time after midnight, between 12:12-00 in the morning of the 30th (manual setting is required for the first time, and the operation is time-consuming). The preliminary plan is to update 40 chapters.

It’s not that I don’t want to update more, it’s just that this subject is particularly troublesome to write, and it’s not just ordinary trouble. This is why there are so few books on the subject of air combat.

Influenced by some movies and TV series (Independence Day 1, Snowwind, Macross, etc.), I've wanted to write a book about aerial combat for a while now. Why is it that in movies and TV series, foreigners always fight aliens? We at Tokyo University can fight too! We have the ability to do so!
If foreigners can do it, why can't Chinese people do it? 】

But at that time I was not capable enough and did not dare to write rashly. In the end I summarized how to write it:
①. Must have sufficient writing skills.

②. Must have corresponding theoretical knowledge.

③. Must have sufficient practical experience.

These three points are just the basics. I read a lot of books and suffered a lot in order to write this book. First of all, I read books on air combat. After reading them, I was confused. Scissors maneuver, low YOYO, LOOP, high YOYO, etc. What are these? Even with pictures, I was still confused.

I want to give up, but—little kid, nothing is impossible as long as you are willing to climb! Let go and make a career!

Just learn and practice!
Forget about real flying, as you don’t have the opportunity or the ability to do so. You can only choose to experience it in the game.

The first game I watched was "Ace Combat", and I was completely skeptical after watching it. This game was just for fun, and the overload was eliminated. The person who wrote it became a fool, and it would definitely be outrageous, and the physical rules would be gone.

Then I looked at the popular DCS and War Thunder. Needless to say, a set of sticks, throttles, rudder pedals, and head sights for DCS is a considerable expense. I made up my mind to buy them and also bought a JF-17 gift pack.

After flying for a while, I felt it was too realistic. I had to read the "Technical Manual" before flying. It was written so that even people who read it would be confused.

I tried War Thunder again. Putting aside the fantastic operation of the Rislavs in the game, it is relatively friendly and easy to understand in terms of its friendliness to beginners and PVP confrontation.

I bought a gift pack and got it right away. I was beaten to a pulp, which made me realize that it's natural for veterans to beat newbies. I went back and played from WWII propeller fighters all the way to third-generation aircraft, finally gaining a detailed understanding of air combat.

Situational awareness → Tactical customization → Execution.

Then I read the book again and went flying again, repeating this process over and over again, and finally this book was born.

It is really difficult to write about air combat, especially every fighting scene. You have to think over and over again about the logic of the battle, think about low blood sugar (the brain needs sugar to function), and then the impact of the appearance of aliens on the international situation. This is inevitable, but you can't write too much about domestic affairs, but there is no problem with international affairs.

Thoughts on aliens: The other party is a civilization with its own industry, technology, population, culture, etc. What appears on Earth is just the tip of the iceberg, and the sentinels are just fallen ice chips. Of course, the other party did not arrive at the Earth through a dimensionality reduction attack such as superluminal speed.

If some people say that only foreigners can fight aliens, and Tokyo University can't? Well, I have nothing to say. Similarly, when facing extraterrestrial civilizations, humanity can rely on industry, technology, and cohesion. Judging from the current timeline, it seems that only Tokyo University has these. I can't help but reflect on why this is the case. It must be a systemic issue. Thankfully, technology is in the hands of civilization.

Tomorrow's update is scheduled for the early morning, and the rest will be updated at 3 noon every day (emphasis added). There will be 5- chapters updated, depending on the status.

It really can't be done quickly. First of all, the quality must be guaranteed. It may take me only one hour to write a chapter, but it will take me more than 1 minutes to revise it repeatedly. I have to make the text concise and remove useless content. I also have to think about whether the logic of air combat is reasonable or not. If it is not reasonable, I have to revise the previous chapters. The world situation, the game between alien civilizations and humans, and the chain reaction, all of this is destined to be slow.

Writing a book is no different from writing a program. Bugs are inevitable, and as the number of words increases, there will be more and more bugs. If you find a bug, please point it out and I will modify it.

The following are the books I refer to. Listing them here does not mean that I am knowledgeable. I am not even half-knowledgeable. But please do not make assumptions when you see something you do not understand. I check the information before writing, and I can't do anything if there is a problem with the information. I also have shortcomings in some things that are not within my knowledge base.

This book is originally aimed at a niche audience, a niche among niche audiences. I have been worrying about whether it can make me a living since I wrote it.

People really need to eat, it is a matter of survival.

Finally, I would like to post a picture. I don’t know if it will pass the review. I switched my career from working in a factory to writing books. I also worked as a slave for many years. The closer I get to forty, the more I feel his greatness.
