The moment Gray Wolf received the order from his superiors, Jiang Haitao flew a Wuzhishi quickly along the mountains to the training base.
He is responsible for driving, and one of his apprentices is his deputy, responsible for controlling weapons, so he is also called a weapons officer, or a weapons operator, or a weapons hand. The two people do not sit together, and their cockpits are in front of the other.
In the back, and there are high and low.
This is a standard gunship layout.
At present, all the mainstream armed helicopters in the world have a tandem cockpit layout at the front and rear, which can minimize the bomb-receiving area and maximize the visible area, thus ensuring its battlefield survivability.
The pilot in the front cabin is mainly responsible for the flight attitude of the entire aircraft. The rear cabin is also usually called the shooter cabin. Its main task is to operate instruments and fight.
But there is no essential difference between the two cockpits, and they are even almost the same. In this way, if a certain operating system or weapon attack system in the front cockpit is damaged during combat, the one in the rear cockpit can completely replace the one in the front cockpit.
That function of the cabin.
In other words, there are weapon attack systems and flight operating systems in the front and rear cabins. The driver and shooter both have driving and attack skills, but their positions are opposite to those of ordinary armed helicopters.
At this time, Jiang Haitao was sitting in the front, and his deputy was sitting in the back cabin.
"Li Bin, we are about to enter the war zone. Please ask about the situation in the war zone!" Jiang Haitao commanded his deputy via radio.
"Understood!" his deputy replied, and then opened the communication with the early warning aircraft: "Two holes are calling the bunker. If you hear it, please answer."
"I am the bunker."
"Bunker, what's going on ahead! It's over!"
The helicopter AWACS aircraft of the Flying Tiger Brigade was just equipped two days ago. There is only one helicopter, which is very expensive. Even the two pilots of the AWACS aircraft have become the favorites of the Flying Tiger Brigade, and are popular in the eyes of the leaders of the brigade headquarters.
Of course, the two pilots of the early warning aircraft are both female pilots, and they are really considered treasures in the eyes of a lot of rough guys.
In fact, the superiors did not want to equip the Flying Tiger Brigade with an early warning aircraft at the beginning, because at this time, the helicopter early warning aircraft was still a new thing in the pla, and the research institute had just built one. How to use this thing, whether to use it, and whether it is worth it.
Equipment, many leaders are actually beating the drum in their hearts.
Moreover, this thing is very expensive and the cost is too high. Between the limited investment and the high cost of the early warning aircraft, many troops will choose to give up the early warning aircraft, but Chen Fei knows that this thing is very critical and must be equipped. Even if he eats wild vegetables and swallows dry food, he will still
You have to save this money to buy an early warning aircraft.
For this reason, he argued with Yuan Lang for more than a month, and it took him more than a month to convince Yuan Lang. It was not that Yuan Lang didn't know the importance of early warning aircraft, but he felt that the Flying Tiger Brigade's funds were too tight now.
Use it in other places first, and then equip this thing when you have money later. Use good steel on the blade.
, both people agree with this point of view, but Chen Fei believes that the early warning aircraft is the blade, while Yuan Lang believes that other places are the blades, but Chen Fei knows that Yuan Lang's idea is wrong. If the Flying Tiger Brigade wants to obtain the strongest combat effectiveness, it must
To carry out informatization, and if we want to do a good job in informatization, early warning helicopters are very important.
So the performance of the early warning aircraft this time is very important. If it succeeds, it will prove that Chen Fei is right, otherwise Yuan Lang will say that he is right.
Although the early warning and command helicopter in the air assault brigade information system does not receive as much attention as a certain new type of missile or armed helicopter, it does play a key role in the combat effectiveness of the army aviation.
If the air assault brigade wants to suddenly emerge, early warning helicopters are even more important.
The Flying Tiger Brigade is equipped with the new Z-8 early warning and command helicopter.
The radar of the Z-8 early warning and command aircraft is mainly aimed at detecting battlefield ground targets and low and slow targets. Its function is similar to that of the American E-8 battlefield surveillance aircraft.
The Z-8 early warning command helicopter can obtain clear radar images of various terrains, buildings, and roads on the battlefield through this radar, thereby discovering various ground targets. General battlefield concealment methods have no effect on it.
This radar can also detect targets without being affected by bad weather. Therefore, in front of this early warning command aircraft, the entire battlefield is one-way and transparent, and the dynamics of enemy and friendly ground and low-altitude combat units can be clearly seen!
This information is displayed in front of the commander through the on-board display console, and combat operations can be directed accordingly, allowing combat troops to attack the enemy's vital points appropriately and maximize combat effects!
Not long after, Jiang Haitao's earphones came with a report from the early warning aircraft: "Two holes, a large number of unidentified aerial targets appeared at the southwest edge of the target airspace. The specific situation is still being verified. Please pay attention to it. Other conditions are normal. Over!"
"
"A large number of unknown aerial targets appeared?" Jiang Haitao was startled, and instinctively turned his head to look to the other side. He turned his head and then remembered that he was driving Wu Zhishi at this time, and his assistant was not beside him, so he used
The radio asked: "Li Bin, what's going on?"
"Master, I don't know. Could it be that there is no coordination from above and another unit happens to be training nearby?"
"Impossible!" Jiang Haitao shook his head and said immediately: "I don't want to think about it anymore, we just do what Chief of Staff Chen said!"
"clear."
During the training, Chen Fei repeatedly asked the Flying Tiger Brigade to train according to actual combat requirements and make the training practical. In this way, actual combat is almost the same as training.
At this time, in the command hall of the Flying Tiger Brigade, all the leaders fell into silence as they watched the images transmitted from the early warning helicopter displayed on the big screen.

At this time, a group of helicopters was flying close to the valley.
The pilots of this fleet are all flying masters and can fly very fast in narrow and complex valleys.
They made full use of the cover of the terrain and skillfully passed one level after another.
In the past, their performance would have attracted applause from the leaders in the command hall. The flying skills of these pilots were really too strong and their courage was very impressive. But at this time, everyone was just silent.
Because these advanced helicopters are flying close to the valley with the most exquisite skills under the control of such superb pilots, but such superb tactics are invisible to the eyes of that early warning helicopter, and every move is clearly visible.
If this is a real battle, this fleet will definitely never come back. The more skillful and bold the pilots are, the stronger the irony will be at this time.
Previously, the Flying Tiger Brigade clamored to equip early warning helicopters, but many leaders were actually opposed to it. First, this thing is extremely expensive, but no one knows how effective it is. Moreover, our army's early warning helicopters have just started.
The current one is considered a first-generation product. It is not reliable. No one dares to guarantee it. Therefore, most people are opposed to the Flying Tiger Brigade’s idea of equipping an early warning helicopter. Even if they are not opposed, they don’t think so. But at this time, everyone
They were all shocked.
In the eyes of such an early warning helicopter, the entire battlefield is completely transparent. It's like the Flying Tiger Brigade has a God's perspective. How can they fight this battle?
