"We have not conducted large-scale aerial refueling, especially the large-scale aerial refueling training at night. Our test flight personnel have not conducted..." Xia Fei's questioning is not unreasonable.

Liu Yijiu shook his head, "These are not problems. If it really doesn't work, we can consider refueling at the air force base where we go. Physical strength, the pilots don't need to consume too much physical strength before entering that area."

Long-distance flights do require physical strength, at least it is much easier than doing a few hours of high-intensity confrontation exercises like this. In border areas, confrontation cannot be longer than this. Unless a war breaks out.

As for war, when missiles are launched, how can it take so long?

"They just experienced such a high-intensity confrontation drill!" Long Yaohua was very worried.

As older generation soldiers, they all hope to be more secure.

Liu Yijiu was speechless and immediately said to the big guys, "Chiefs, I know more about your concerns than anyone else. We have no idea whether our fighter jets can experience such a long-term high-intensity flight; we have no idea whether our pilots can undertake such high-intensity tasks either. However, this is a war! All our training should be carried out based on actual combat. Even if it is just a most basic flight, we must follow the requirements of the war... If we are facing a real war now, will we let our most elite troops hide because we are worried about losses?"

His words became harsh again.

The veteran generals could not even refute.

Before, when we had a war with the Japanese army, we fought with Jiang Guangtou's troops, and fought with the US imperialists, the troops' equipment was all disadvantageous at that time, so we still used it for combat missions?

Sacrifice is great, but it has to be sacrificed.

Now that they are equipped, they are afraid of wolves and tigers because they are reluctant to give up equipment and are reluctant to have problems with elite soldiers. In this way, what will happen if they really face war?

The consequences are conceivable, and the PLA will be completely limited by such ideas.

"That's it, everything is based on actual combat. Of course, we set off tonight. If there is no situation, our pilots will rest in the coastal naval aviation base." Liu Yijiu made a tough statement, and no one refuted the group of veteran generals at this time.

"Does Tu-22M stay there? In this way, it is possible to leak the secret!" Long Yaohua took a deep breath. After the peace was too long, they were all timid.

This kind of thinking is undesirable.

"We have medium-range strategic bombers, and it does not need to be kept confidential. Otherwise, it is impossible for bombers to cruise outside our territorial waters this time. This is to tell them that once they dare to invade, we are fully capable of sending them to the seabed to feed fish. They should have had detailed information on the C801 anti-ship missiles. They would have had detailed information. They would not have known it for so many years, otherwise, the British fleet would not dare to be as arrogant as before!" Liu Yijiu did not care at all - the 22M counterfire strategic bomber let the international community know.

These bombers have their origins, which were replaced with CNC machine tools and the Soviet Union. The Soviets would never be careless.

What's more, if war really requires it, China has the ability to produce such medium-range strategic bombers.

They will be very surprised to scare the US imperialists and it will take some time to know exactly what kind of fighter jets like China are.

"Master, what tasks do we have to perform? We used to restrict our tactical actions to fly? Today, this is really exciting. My calves are still trembling now..." Back in the dormitory, the six pilots made a routine summary, and Feng Gang asked Yin Qingyuan.

High-intensity tactical action flight consumes a lot of energy.

Except for Yin Qingyuan and another older pilot, everyone else felt a slight discomfort.

"Everyone should take a break quickly. If you feel it is not suitable for your body, go to the health care room to find the masters to help you rub and pinch it. The intensity tonight may be greater than this!" Yin Qingyuan shook his head. He had actually guessed what Liu Yijiu wanted them to do.

"Impossible? If this happens again at night, you won't be able to see it myself, and..." a pilot of twenty-seven or eight frowned and said.

"We are in poor condition tonight and we may lose this mission. I hope everyone will be mentally prepared. Our mission may be related to the joint exercises of the US aircraft carrier fleet and the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force in the eastern waters!" Yin Qingyuan reminded everyone.

This is a fatal thing.

If you are in poor condition, you will not only lose your life, but also discredit the entire Air Force.

"No? Master, are we..." Feng Gang jumped up first. They were eager to compete with outstanding European and American pilots in aerial battle.

On the northern border, some pilots played this dangerous game with Russian pilots, but they were all J-7 and J-8. They wanted to go, but no one could go.

"Shut up, just know! If it is spread, we don't expect it. Let's take a break and recover!" Yin Qingyuan said and walked outside.

When the others heard this, they did not discuss anything, but went back to their rooms, while others went to the health room in the base, which contained acupuncture, massage, Chinese medicine baths, etc., which could all relieve fatigue well.

This luxury of the Blue Army is not available to the whole country or even the whole world.

The Blue Army only carried out its mission this time in the middle-range bomber formation and the J-10 escort formation, but it involved the operation of the entire force, especially in logistics.

The high-speed maneuvering operation lasted for more than two hours, and the overload changes were very fierce, which put a lot of pressure on the structural strength of the entire fighter.

Ground service support personnel, technicians from Factory 132, and designers from Institute 611 all conducted comprehensive inspections and support for these six fighter jets in the hangar to ensure that each aircraft has always been at its best performance status.

Liu Yijiu and others also did not have a rest. They kept testing the entire Beidou satellite system, and even coordinated and communicated with other air bases and ground air defense forces to avoid tension caused by the Blue Army's transit at night. If they were shot down by friendly anti-aircraft artillery or air defense missiles, who would they cry to?

This was not an order from the Military Commission, but just an action of the Blue Army. Therefore, the identities of a group of old men who retired from senior military officials played a huge role at this time.

"Old Chief, please rest assured that our troops will be ready for reception! All radar personnel will not leak information!"

"Old Chief, please rest assured that we will not disclose the secret..."

The commanders of the major bases who have been through the road are so guaranteed. It is impossible to shut down the radar of the air defense positions at this time, but it is no problem to keep them silent. Anyway, they all know that the mystery of the Blue Army is the enemy of all the troops in China. In non-exercise situations, all data must be kept confidential.

The only thing that made them a little embarrassed was not reporting to the military, which made them very embarrassed. In the end, they could only say that they didn't know about it at night...

In the eastern waters, a US-Japan joint exercise fleet with more than 40 warships of all sizes have begun to assemble from naval bases on Okinawa and other naval bases and began to gather in the waters more than 30 kilometers east of the Diaoyu Islands.

Early warning aircraft that took off from the US Air Force Base station in Japan, electronic reconnaissance aircraft and fighter aircraft that took off from the aircraft carriers, kept taking off while the fleet was rushing.

The target they monitor is the direction of mainland China.

All naval and air force, army, and missile forces in the coastal areas have already begun to be on guard.

The air echelon, which was originally not very dense, had already taken off and landed frequently in more than a day before the exercise began. However, the most advanced fighter jets equipped by the Republic of Navy Aviation Units were the J-7, and the number of J-8 IIs was not large.

As for HNA's patrol, it's really heartbreaking.

Neither the Y-8X nor the Y-8J have been modified yet, especially the Y-8J, a maritime early warning aircraft designed specifically for maritime early warning, is not yet reached because there is no long-range sea search radar in China, and negotiations with the UK have not been reached, and Skymaster's "Air King" radar has not been obtained, and it has not been formed.

The only advanced one is the water anti-submarine aircraft such as the Water Hong-5 in the mid-1980s...

Therefore, the main defense is to rely on the radar on the warships, the radar on land and the radars brought by the fighter. This makes it necessary for the East China Sea Fleet aviation troops and the air forces deployed here to take off the J-7 in large numbers, and the J-8 II, especially the J-8 II with lower sight radar, which has been added, and has become the main force.

"Commander, don't worry. Once the United States and the Japanese dare to step into our area, our aviation troops will drive them back!" Commander Qu Zhentao, the combat center of the East China Sea Fleet Command, looked worried.

With the Beidou satellite system, they can discover large-scale sea-surface armed forces, but they cannot see it too clearly. The Japanese and American naval fleets are still on the way to assemble.

"Are the Fourth HNA Division on the other side of Zhoushan ready?" Qu Zhentao asked the staff officer Xu Shijun.

"The political commissar has gone there!" Xu Shijun replied, "Our command center received a message that the Blue Army's Air Force will send troops to assist us in this patrol, but we are required not to report to our superiors..."
