It is not easy for fighters to take off and land on aircraft carriers.
On land, even if it can take off and land in a short distance, the runway must be at least 500 meters long. Generally, the runway is more than 1000 meters long. After all, fighter planes need to take off and land by taxiing.
However, the aircraft carrier obviously does not have that long distance. In this case, the aircraft carrier needs special means.
For example, when landing, the blocking cable is used. When the landing hook at the tail of the carrier aircraft hooks the blocking cable, it forcibly pulls the carrier aircraft to stop.
When taking off, you can't fly from the take-off line of more than 100 meters with your own power.
This requires special means, generally speaking, sliding jump take-off or ejection take-off.
Ski jump take-off is to support the ship first and provide a slope for the fighter to fly obliquely. Ejection take-off is to use catapults to provide more power to the fighter.
These are additional means.
Today's aircraft carrier, the deck is too small and the catapult is too small. It can't launch an A-4 skyhawk attack aircraft with full ammunition. In addition to sailing to the maximum speed, the aircraft carrier has to rely on the sea breeze.
It is close to the South Pole and has strong sea breeze, so it can take off under normal circumstances.
But what about the super flag?
The super military flag has not conducted ejection and take-off experiments on the small aircraft carrier of silver country, while the displacement of the aircraft carrier Clemenceau of chicken country is twice that of silver country, and the length of the catapult is tens of meters longer than that of silver country!
Super flag, can you take off?
If it can't take off, what does the silver Navy want it to do!
Of course, the navy has not only carrier aircraft aviation, but also land aviation. In countries without aircraft carriers, naval aviation takes off from land airports.
But what is the use of the super flag if it can't take off from the aircraft carrier may 25? Isn't it better to use flying leopards at land airports?
It can be said that if the super flag cannot take off from May 25, the super flag will completely lose the need for existence.
In history, the silver country had no choice. Only the combination of chicken country's super military flag and flying fish missile could meet their needs. After buying fighters, the silver country's navy had to transform their aircraft carrier, increase the area of flight deck and lengthen catapults to use "super military flag" aircraft.
(even after the transformation, the Navy did not operate the aircraft carrier effectively in this war. The super flag fighter still took off from the land airport. It had to refuel in the air to fight, and its efficiency was greatly reduced. The Navy shrank in the port until the end of the war.)
Now, due to the competition with the Han country, the people of the chicken country first cover up this shortcoming and say that they can take off. When the silver country buys it back, it's not too late to try, and then transform the aircraft carrier.
But now, unexpectedly, I got on the aircraft carrier at once. If I can't take off, it will be completely exposed. Will the Navy choose?
Bouvallo thought of this, and sweat had oozed from his forehead.
Qin Guan smiled and said, "the air conditioning equipment in the cabin is very good. Mr. bouvalo, you are sweating. Do you want to take off your suit?"
Buvalo stared at Qin Guan with angry eyes. If his eyes could kill, Qin Guan didn't know how many times he had died. Qin Guan still smiled. Dassault company, do you still want to compete? You have completely failed!
The power of the aircraft carrier is the carrier based aircraft, but the carrier based aircraft will be equipped on the aircraft carrier only when it goes to sea. Generally speaking, when the aircraft carrier sets sail, the carrier based aircraft will take off from the land airport and land on it. When it returns, the carrier based aircraft will take off and land on the land airport.
If the super flag cannot take off from the aircraft carrier and is forced to be hoisted down by crane after arriving at the port, it will be a complete shame.
Bouvallo's eyes turned and thought of something: "of course, no problem. Our super military flag is originally a carrier plane. Wait."
What are you afraid of? It's no problem for the super flag to take off.
The takeoff of a fighter plane can be divided into many situations. In short, it is the size of its own weight.
If the super flag still carries a missile and a secondary fuel tank, it's certainly choking. Now that the secondary fuel tank is thrown away, the missile has been shot out. Fill the fighter with less fuel, so that it can always take off?
Francois knows how to do it.
After boarding the ship, Francois knew the problem.
He must fly a fighter and leave the aircraft carrier, but he still pays attention to how to leave.
Now, the aircraft carrier is about 500 or 600 kilometers away from the shore. If you return from high altitude, you only need to add half of the fuel. In order to be richer, it's better.
"Please fill me with three tons of fuel," Francois said to the deck crew when he got off the plane and was on deck.
The maximum take-off weight of the super flag is 11.9 tons. Now there are no external missiles, and only half a box of fuel is added. The self weight is only 8 tons.
You know, the A-4 attack aircraft operated by the Baiyin Navy now also has a maximum weight of 8 tons. (there are many models of A-4, the ultimate improved model in the later stage, with a maximum takeoff weight of 11 tons, but Baiyin only purchased the original a-4b.)
It's also eight tons, but its own aircraft has strong power. Open the afterburner and cooperate with the catapult. It's absolutely no problem. Francois was on the deck and watched the deck personnel refuel him. His heart was also thinking about everything. After taking off, he went back and said it was an airborne equipment failure and asked to test fire the flying fish missile again. He didn't believe there would be a problem!
He watched his fighter fill up with oil, then moved to the end of the catapult, took a deep breath, and Francois got on his fighter again.
"Super flag to tower, please mention full speed," Francois shouted on the radio.
"Yes, we'll sail at full speed. Good luck," said the captain on the bridge.
As soon as he finished, a sailor came up and said, "the meteorological department reported that the sea breeze has stopped."
The sea breeze stopped? The captain was stunned, didn't he? It is destiny.
Generally speaking, the sea breeze here is strong and lasts for many years. Now it actually stops?
"Super flag, there is no headwind now. Can you take off?" the captain asked on the radio.
Upwind?
For the aircraft carrier, even if there is a deck wind of 3 knots, it is also good. Therefore, when ejecting the aircraft, we should turn to the headwind and sail at full speed. But now, we have cheated home. If we stop sailing and take off just because there is no sea wind, does it seem that our fighter plane is too bad? The battle depends on God?
"You can take off," Francois shouted.
Then he was ready to welcome the strong feeling of pushing his back on his back at any time.
