The determination of the high command to vigorously develop the naval force has been reflected. Does HNA have bombers? Yes, it has always had H-6s, but not many. Now that the entire bomber division of Xining Station is transferred to HNA, it shows that the higher-ups have strengthened HNA

Plans for long-range strike capabilities.

Once there is an establishment, there will be funds and more fighters can be fielded. The key to transferring the bomber division to the past is the equipment establishment. The personnel establishment obviously needs to be compressed. The development direction of the army is to streamline the organization, and the number of soldiers will only become smaller and smaller.

Some units will be disbanded, and at the same time some new units will be built or some units will be expanded. For example, the Marine Corps heard that it will be expanded to a military level.

Li Zhan had preliminary communication with Moran An and Lao Chentou through internal phone calls about the transfer of the bomber division to Hainan Airlines and the Flying Shark Force absorbing some of its ground crew. The opinions were basically unified, which was a good thing for the Flying Shark Force.

A good thing, it saves the time of training ground maintenance personnel from scratch and helps speed up the construction of the army.

But this matter is not easy to handle. I can only form a preliminary idea for now. I don't have a good idea yet on how to make suggestions to my superiors in the future and how to make the accepted target logically target the Xiding bomber division.

Putting this matter aside for the time being, Li Zhan continued to train the female pilots hard. In the remaining ten days, the female pilots must complete subjects that usually take two months or more to train.

The difficulty lies in target shooting, both aerial and ground targets, as well as aircraft cannon and aircraft fire. Only by mastering these basic combat skills can the modification be considered successful - there is no point if you don't have combat effectiveness.

Aerial target training is actually aerial combat training, and this subject is taught quite smoothly. Female pilots have all completed higher-education aircraft training, and aerial combat is a very important part of it, just like infantry shooting training. So in

After becoming familiar with the characteristics of the J-10 fighter, the female pilots were able to fight with style.

But Li Zhan encountered problems during ground target training. Many female pilots could not grasp the timing of firing. They dived too early or too late, fired too early or too late, and pulled up too early or too late. They always failed.

Essentials. Only Yu Xumei could barely reach the passing mark.

Li Zhan was puzzled. After asking, he found out that they had not received training in ground attack. They had not even been trained in basic ground-attack aircraft shooting, which made Li Zhan very helpless.

In desperation, Li Zhan could only adjust the training plan and spend more time on ground target training. There were two major subjects in their qualification examination that were vetoed by one vote, the air target and the ground target. As long as one of these two subjects was

If you fail in one subject, it doesn't matter how good your scores are in other subjects. You will still not be qualified to fly the J-10 fighter jet.

As a teacher, Li Zhan certainly does not want his students to fail to obtain the qualification to fly.

Li Zhan was the most experienced in ground target shooting. He summarized all his experiences and gave a to-the-point teaching on the characteristics of female pilots. However, Xiao Zhengyang had reservations about this. A pilot with zero basic knowledge would have to master the skills in just a few days.

It is so difficult to master ground shooting skills here. It can be said that it is basically impossible.

"The arrow is on the string, even if there are no difficulties, no matter how difficult it is, we have to attack it. We have no choice but to fight." Li Zhan said to the female pilots, "In order to achieve better training effects, all subsequent training will use live ammunition. You must seize every opportunity."

The opportunity to shoot live ammunition will give you a chance to gain experience. Once you master the skills, you can turn this technique into your own."

The female pilots were under a lot of pressure. All they had received before was air combat training, and they had never thought that to be qualified to fly the J-10, they needed to have the ability to attack the ground. Previously, they had desperately hoped that time would pass faster and they would be able to get rid of the devil of the instructor as soon as possible.

Head, now they hope that time will pass slower. They find that they still have a lot to learn, and the teacher is like a treasure house with inexhaustible wealth.

The bomber division fully supported the training of the female flying squadron, dispatched a capable ground target area support team, set up multiple target areas, and provided sufficient ammunition. However, the shells of the aircraft guns needed to be transferred from other units, and the bomber division did not meet the requirements.

Twenty-three millimeter artillery shells used by the J-10.

The J-10 uses a semi-buried double-barreled 23mm aerial cannon, a Russian-made ghs23, installed on the left side below the air inlet. The J-10ay used by the Bayi Aerobatic Team has the aerial cannon removed.

, including the J-10sy. This time for the modification training of female pilots, the No. 10 J-10s was reinstalled with an aerial gun system, which restored its combat capabilities and can be fired after loading ammunition.

There are 7-tube 90mm aviation rocket launchers, which can be found in almost any arms warehouse, including the bomber division's arms warehouse. When necessary, the H-6 can also mount aircraft fire and dive to attack the ground again.

How about it? It’s an ancestral craft. As long as it’s flying in the sky, it’s really hard to find one that can’t fire.

Sixteen thousand rounds of 23mm aircraft cannon shells were urgently transferred from a certain department. On average, each female pilot was allocated a quota of 1,000 rounds, which is five standard bases. This is the ammunition needed for training and subsequent exams.

, it’s hard to find more. In addition, the bomber division provided 1,500 90mm aviation rockets as training ammunition and test ammunition for the female flight crew, which was a huge investment.

These ammunitions alone are worth a lot of money. If the aircraft ammunition costs one thousand yuan each, the aircraft ammunition alone is worth 1.5 million yuan, which is equivalent to a 150-square-meter mansion in the provincial capital city.

Otherwise, what is fired is not ammunition but money. The only thing that matters in a war is who has the thickest wallet. The U.S. military has burned nearly a trillion dollars in Afghanistan for several years. Not everyone can afford to fight this kind of war.

In the past, we often saw that our military's fighter planes did not carry much ammunition. The most training was simulation training, and there was very little live ammunition shooting. Why, there is no money, support local economic construction troops tighten their pants

Military benefits have remained unchanged for 20 to 30 years, and those 20 to 30 years were exactly the period of rapid social development. They didn't even have enough to eat. It would be good if each pilot could fire a few rounds of cannons a year. Others

Don't expect too much.

Li Zhan, who is riding the tail of his unit's silent period, has experienced a shortage of training materials. If he hadn't been a professional blue army when he was in Beiku, the Falcon Brigade would have been as miserable as the other two brigades waiting for the mid-year and year-end assessments.

Fire a few shots.

So Li Zhan said that female pilots have encountered a good time. Now the army is gradually letting go of its hands and feet to engage in live-fire training. Even the simulation training cannot overcome the limitations. To improve the combat effectiveness of the army, it still needs to be done with real weapons.

.

Starting from the worst Udondong, Li Zhan began to teach them one by one. After more than a dozen flights, all the female pilots actually reached the standard of solo flight, but Li Zhan put the solo flight behind and focused on

Spend time and energy on ground shooting training.

After entering the attack route, Li Zhan first gave a demonstration teaching while explaining to Udongdong in the front cabin, "Pay attention to the timing of my entry. The J-10 is a highly agile fighter and is very sensitive. It does not matter if it enters too early or too late, it must be just right.

.You pay attention to my movements, I will enter again."

With that said, he pulled up the fighter plane and turned back in a circle, entering the attack route again.

Udondong understood it carefully and nodded slightly, "Teacher, I have a feeling, shall I give it a try?"

"Okay, you take over."

Udongdong took over the control of the fighter, pulled up the turn, recalled the feeling just now, and pressed the lever steadily to enter the attack route. Li Zhan nodded slightly and said, "This time, the timing is well chosen, keep going.

Anticipate the target and follow my instructions to open the switch and prepare to shoot."

"Understood!" Udondong cheered up, and after two simulation trainings, he finally wanted to fire a few real shots.

The J-10's low-altitude performance is good. With the blessing of canards, the fighter can obtain sufficient lift at the lowest possible speed. The aircraft's take-off run distance is very short, and it can even take off at 300 kilometers with afterburner.

Lift the wheel at a distance of about 1 meter. It is on the same level as the J-7e that Li Zhan drove before. It is very friendly. Li Zhan even thinks it is better than the J-11 series.

The target area is located in an uninhabited mountainous area where the bomber division usually conducts bombing training. On the top of the mountain, an area the size of the three-point line of the basketball court is cleared, and a layer of circular white cloth is directly spread. After shooting, the damage to the white cloth will be determined.

Judge the performance.

Li Zhan found that Udongdong had pointed the nose of the aircraft at the target area, and said, "Turn on the switch, aim and shoot. Remember, when shooting, you must hold the aircraft steady and maintain the specified speed."

"Understood!" Udondong couldn't help but become nervous. This was her first time.

The No. 10 J-10S dived towards the target at a low speed. Udondong controlled the joystick and pressed the aiming ring firmly on the target. When she reached the shooting distance, she gritted her teeth and pressed the button.

The double-barreled 23mm aerial cannon on the left side below the air inlet fired "dong dong", ejecting shells at a rate of fifty-four French per second, and the shells were fired at the target at a speed of 715 meters per second.

Two long tongues of fire spurted out.

"Stop shooting and pull up!" Li Zhan shouted.

Udondong subconsciously released the button and quickly pulled up the fighter.

Li Zhan was speechless as soon as he saw the remaining capacity of the magazine. Only half of it was left. He smiled bitterly and said, "You are really a newbie who shoots continuously. You killed more than a hundred rounds at once. Shoot more slowly, sister. You still have

It’s going to take five shots.”

"I..." Udondon doll's face turned red.

"Let's do it again. This aircraft cannon fires very quickly. It can fire two hundred rounds of shells in four or five seconds. Do you understand that you have to let go immediately after pressing it?" Li Zhan said.

"I understand, instructor." Udongdong smacked his fangs. Of course, the other female pilots in the flight briefing room couldn't see her expression as she was wearing a flight helmet.

Li Zhan said, "The J-10 does not have much ammunition for its aircraft guns. When you only have the aircraft guns left, you have to consider using them in the most urgent moment. Once the aircraft guns are used up, you will have no power to fight back."

, whether it’s air combat or ground strikes.”

"Understood." Udondong readjusted, turned off the shooting switch, and circled around the target area.

The ground support team acted quickly and quickly reported the results to the tower. Xiao Zhengyang, who was on the tower, looked at the results and shook his head helplessly, saying, "Only eleven shots were hit in the single hole, and the rest were all missed.

"

Out of more than a hundred rounds, only 11 were hit, and Udondong's face turned even redder.

Li Zhan was not surprised. He said, "You didn't stabilize the plane when you were shooting just now, and the impact point went above the target."

"If the teacher answered correctly, ten points will be added." Xiao Zhengyang said.

Li Zhan said, "The principle of our shooting is the same as that of infantry shooting. There is recoil, and the posture of the fighter plane will be destroyed when shooting. Only by stabilizing the fighter plane can the point of impact of the bullet be relatively stable. Pay attention to this issue when shooting again.

."

"clear!"

After receiving the instruction to fire a second time, Udondong once again entered the attack route. Thinking about the problem that had just occurred, she looked in all directions, dived at a low speed again, and fired again according to the instruction. This time she pressed

He pressed the firing button and quickly released his thumb, and more than twenty shells landed on the target.

After completing the shooting, I quickly pulled full throttle and turned at a large angle to avoid disengagement. It was a bit interesting.

The results were reported quickly. Xiao Zhengyang said, "Yudong, this time the results are good. They all hit the target. However, the impact points are scattered. Please pay attention to solve the problem."

"Understood!" Udongdong's confidence increased greatly. It was not easy.

Li Zhan demonstrated to her again and said, "I'm going to fire ten rounds. Pay attention to my movements."

He took over the control of the fighter plane, accelerated the turn, entered the attack route at a very fast speed, and dived at a very high speed, which was much more powerful than Udon Dong's hesitant and leisurely look. The fighter plane suddenly turned into a grumpy old man

, roaring towards the target, firing from a long distance, and then the double-barreled 23mm aerial cannon spit out two clusters of shells, accurately hitting the middle of the target.

After a full-throttle side-slip turn, it was quickly pulled up, and the whole process was as smooth as flowing water.

Xiao Zhengyang quickly reported the target: "The instructor did a good job. The impact points of the ten shells were basically within one meter, which was perfect."

This move makes the female pilots drool with envy. It is like an aerial sniper with such accuracy.
To be continued...
