Soldier Assault Commander

551 ready to land
Fade Chen flew the J-[-] over the base for a few laps to get his feel.

Looking at the aircraft carrier deck from a high altitude, it is really too small, just like a matchbox, you can't see it if you don't pay attention.

Flying a few laps, Fade Chen found the feeling. At this time, the voice from the control tower just came over: "Yaodongyao, adjust your posture and prepare to land the ship!"

"Yaodongyao understand." Fade Chen agreed, pressed the lever and ruddered, turned the plane around, and flew towards the aircraft carrier. He first glanced at the deck, and then at the tower.

Looking at it from here, the aircraft carrier is only the size of a matchbox, so let alone the control tower. Those with poor eyesight may not even be able to see anything. Even Fade Chen, who has better eyesight, can only see a small Smaller silhouettes.

The tower, no, it should be called the warship to be precise. It was built in a one-to-one ratio and completely simulated.

This is the place with the best view on the entire aircraft carrier. This is the nerve center of the fighter plane operation command. It undertakes all functions such as ground transfer command, approach command, take-off and landing command. Basically, except for combat, all command is in charge here. , which is equivalent to the airport control tower.

Of course, the tower is not the only tower on the ship. In addition to the tower, there is actually a more important and mysterious department on the ship. In some film and television works, this place often appears. It is the command center of the fleet. To be precise, He should be the intelligence and combat command center. The chief of the fleet and other important leaders usually only work here. His position is higher than the tower, almost under the cockpit, so it is convenient for the chief of the fleet to go back and forth between the two.

At this time, on the ship tower, all the staff were in place, and each focused on the task at hand, escorting Chen Fei's landing.

Compared with taking off, how to land a carrier-based aircraft is more difficult.Even in the U.S. military, many pilots have died due to failed landings.The F-35C that the United States crashed in the South China Sea had an accidental crash during landing. The plane hit the deck heavily, exploded into a fireball, and then fell into the seabed.Fortunately, after the accident of the fighter plane, the pilot ejected in time to escape. Although the plane crashed, the pilot was saved, and other planes on the aircraft carrier were not affected.

In order to help the carrier-based aircraft land safely, arresting cables need to be installed on the aircraft carrier for emergency braking, and special optical signal auxiliary devices are needed to help the carrier-based aircraft land on the ship.Moreover, pilots often need to maximize their speed when landing, so that they can have enough speed to go around in the event of an accident.The moment a carrier-based aircraft lands, it will produce a huge impact. Some pilots in the United States broke their necks due to the excessive impact during landing, which shows the high degree of danger.

Of course, the most difficult step for carrier-based aircraft to take off and land actually happens at night. On a moving aircraft carrier, it is a high-risk task for fighter jets to land, take off and land in a limited landing area and under complex environmental conditions. The task is also a very difficult task.During night training, it is difficult to find the frame of reference of carrier-based aircraft. Pilots must rely on their own searchlights and indicators on the runway to land, which is equivalent to blindfolded operations.Many pilots in the United States have trembling legs due to tension when landing. In recent years, most carrier-based aircraft landing accidents have occurred at night.Only with the ability to operate at night can the all-weather operations of aircraft carriers become a reality, and we also need to continue to work hard in this field. …

But now Fade Chen has not started such a difficult training. He landed at this time, the weather conditions are very good, and all conditions are in the best condition, as if God also came to help him.

"Yaodongyao, prepare to land!"

"understand!"

Chen Fei slowly pressed the lever, allowing the fighter plane to descend at an even speed. His fighter plane flew strictly according to the prescribed route, not one centimeter higher or one centimeter lower, neither left nor right, very standard. Like a textbook.

"Tut tut-"

Seeing all kinds of data on the display screen, even the most critical person in charge of command and other work in the control tower couldn't help applauding Fade Chen, it was really perfect.

Dai Ming is not from the control tower - the people in the control tower are professional staff, they don't do other things, they only command the take-off and landing, but today is Chen Fei's first take-off and landing, Dai Ming is quite nervous, so he came in specially stare.

In the eyes of everyone, the J-[-] battle slowly descended and flew towards the ship area.

The simulated landing area does not deploy arresting wires, but uses four breakable ropes instead.

The pilot landed normally and used the tail hook to hook the rope. Which one was broken indicates which one was hooked, and high-speed cameras were deployed on both sides to capture the details of this short process.

The reason for this is to facilitate the analysis of success or failure.

Everyone has very few training opportunities. It is impossible to be like other units of the Air Force. The technology is not enough, and aviation fuel is used to make up. As long as enough aviation fuel is consumed, the technology will naturally be trained. There is no way to train carrier-based aircraft. To engage in such a simple and crude method, it must be scientific, precise and efficient.

Therefore, the take-off and landing process of each pilot is recorded in detail by high-speed cameras. How to avoid, and so on, etc., all of these have to be discussed one by one, and finally the results are formed. Then, based on these experiences and lessons, we will conduct ten or eight simulated flights until we have fully grasped the results of the previous training. Carved into the bone, this time the training is considered complete.

From this aspect, it is really not easy for Dai Ming and the others.

With such training, even if there is any problem, it can be solved quickly.

At this time, in the landing area, four simulated arresting cables are deployed in parallel at a distance of 12 meters. Counting from the stern of the ship, they are the first, second, third and fourth arresting cables. Three ways, hooking the second way is the most ideal.So the goal of the training is to hook the second arresting line.

To be honest, every pilot wants to hook the second arresting cable, but even Dai Ming cannot do it 70.00%. He is the pilot with the best flying skills in the entire base, but he can basically only do [-]%. It would be nice to have half the probability.

Hooking the first arresting cable means that the glide angle is too large, and there is a danger of hitting the stern of the ship. Hooking the fourth arresting cable means that your gliding distance is compressed to the shortest, and there is a risk of rushing out of the deck and falling into the sea .It's not good to be too far forward or too far back.

Moreover, when landing, the pilots don't just think about hooking the second arresting cable. Every pilot must be ready to go around at any time. Pull up and fly again, every pilot must make such preparations all the time.

Chen Fei glanced outside, then glanced at the dashboard, and then said: "Tower, Yaodongyao is ready to land, it's over!"

"The landing gear is lowered, the tail hook is lowered, confirm, and the ship can be landed." The voice of the control tower was full of tension.

Fade Chen controlled the speed and kept the position where he could go around at any time. If the landing failed, he had to adjust the flaps to the take-off position within two seconds and put the throttle stick at the maximum thrust position for an escape go-around. If he successfully hooked the arresting wire, he also had to retract the full throttle within two seconds and step on the brakes after the front and rear landing gear tires landed on the ship.His landing glide distance is only 100 meters.
