Looking at the target plane pulled onto the runway, Qin Guan was also envious.
Oil exporting countries are such local tyrants. Of course, this style is also brought from Eagle country.
Unlike other countries, the Eagle Air Force has been using target aircraft modified from retired fighters for training. For example, the target aircraft qf-100 modified from the first generation supersonic fighter F-100 "super Saber", the target aircraft qf-102 modified from the delta wing interceptor, and then the qf-16 modified from the third generation fighter. Yes, especially the last one, It was refitted with the F-16. Although it was refitted with the retired F-16 of later generations, this thing is still a tall thing in the eyes of poor countries. People's eagle country directly changed it and used it as a target plane.
These target planes refitted from real fighters are to make the training of the Eagle Air Force closer to the actual combat environment.
The same is true for the Sabbath.
The Sabbath has not been equipped with F100 fighters, but this does not prevent them from importing F100 modified target aircraft. You know, F100 super sabers have a scale of thousands, and they can also be modified into target aircraft in a large area.
Anyway, in short, this is the exclusive equipment of local tyrants.
Qin Guan looked at it with admiration.
"We hope this aerial shooting can be successful. Now, let's go to the headquarters and wait," Murad said.
This is not a flying performance in the air. You can move a small Mazar and sit here to enjoy it. Now, it is air target shooting, over the horizon target shooting, and here is still a civil aviation route. Therefore, there must be no miss. The target airspace must be tens of kilometers away from the base.
You can't see it with the naked eye. You can only see it in the headquarters.
Qin Guan nodded: "OK, let's go and have a look."
General Lin walked behind Qin Guan. For him, this is a rare opportunity to appreciate the deployment of Foreign Air Force bases, which can broaden his horizons.
The most intuitive point is that these air bases have more than one runway.
In addition to the main runway, there is an auxiliary runway next to it. In this way, if the main runway is blown up or something happens, relying on the auxiliary runway can at least meet the needs of takeoff and landing.
Secondly, almost all other people's aircraft have hangars. The hangar of reinforced concrete structure can have a certain protective ability in case of air attack.
These are all money. Look at your own flight base, a runway. Most aircraft are stored in the open air because of money.
It's good that the air force can maintain normal operation. Where can we have funds to improve the base? Now, it's a big investment to buy fighters.
While he was walking and thinking, on the auxiliary runway, the qf100 target plane was ready to take off.
Compared with the original fighter, this target has no change in appearance, but there is no one in its cockpit.
Several technicians closed the cover of the equipment cabin in front of the qf100 target nose. Then, they saw the engine at the tail, emitting a hot tail flame. Then, the two qf100 targets took off together in formation on the runway.
The level of their remote control personnel is really high!
The sound of the engine was deafening. Watching the two target planes take off, everyone was excited.
Chen Rui puts on his helmet and is making preparations before taking off. He has discussed the target airspace. Now Chen Rui needs to take off, go to the target airspace, use his radar to find the target, and then launch a missile attack!
He took another look at the missiles mounted on both sides, and then watched the cockpit cover slowly close, the cockpit cover locked, the tail of his fighter, and the two engines started in turn.
"The ghost reports that the fighter plane starts normally and requests to take off," Chen Rui shouted in standard Eagle language on the radio.
Although the Sabbath state has its own language, their air force pilots have high education and have been trained in the eagle state for many times. Therefore, they often take the eagle language as the basic communication language in their training. There are no obstacles to the communication between the two sides.
"You can take off, please pay attention to the route." a voice came from the headset.
When Chen Rui was taking off, he pulled out a new target plane on the auxiliary runway.
The two that have just taken off are qf100 target aircraft, but now the models are older. Qf86, as the name suggests, is improved with F86 saber.
Qf100 target aircraft are the latest target aircraft, so the number is not large. A large number of them were put into service in the mid-1980s. Now, qf86 target aircraft are more widely used.
At this time, a group of people had entered the tower. From the tower, we watched the j-8-2 aircraft taxiing on the runway, and then slowly got up.
Even if two engines are used, even if the shape with the least resistance is used, the j-8-2 fighter is still a second-generation fighter. Its overall aerodynamic layout determines that its take-off needs a long taxiing distance, which will also affect its bomb load.
"Commander, this is our shooting plan." just then, Balzan handed Murad the shooting plan that had just formed written materials.
Murad looked at it roughly and said, "no, this plan is too simple. How can it show the advanced nature of the Chinese fighter? We need to change it."
Hearing this, the Han people present were stunned, and general Lin frowned. Isn't this a Yin move? "Change the flight route of our target aircraft. According to the original plan, the two qf100 target aircraft in front enter from an altitude of 10000 meters in two directions. Note that the speed is increased to Mach 1.3. Yes, it is the maximum speed. Anyway, the target aircraft will be blown up. Don't worry about the engine life."
"The three qf86 target planes in the back, followed by the Han aircraft, formed a three aircraft formation to follow up at an ultra-low altitude. When the Han fighters were shooting, they simulated entering the attack from the rear. The boys who operated the target plane gave me some spirit! I haven't practiced for a long time. They had a good time this time."
At this point, everyone understood, and no wonder the other side was so awesome that they dragged the best drone out of the air. In fact, it was for their consideration that they wanted to challenge their own fighters.
Is it possible?
It's really possible.
The Eagle Air Force has been using retired fighters to refit target aircraft. Why? Because it can be close to the actual combat to the greatest extent.
The target plane can also do what the fighter can do. After all, to truly simulate the battle under actual combat conditions, the target plane must not be stable.
At the same time, they have another idea.
When a medium-range missile attack is carried out, the carrier aircraft cannot maneuver and avoid, and the carrier aircraft will become a target. At this time, they also want to use their target aircraft to simulate the aircraft attacking their own side!
It's too cloudy.
