Dragoon fighter

While the other air force instructors who came with him were adjusting to the time difference, Lin Mo went to the hangar where four fc-20s were stored. In one day, he just took out the aircraft component packaging boxes from the special containers and was still far away from assembling them. Not even close. After a good night's rest, the two engineers began to direct the Zambian mechanics and soldiers to start the first round of disassembly and packaging, preparing to assemble the main body first.

This process is necessary because the two Chinese engineers cannot stay at the Lusaka Air Force Base forever. From parts to assembly, they can teach Zambian mechanics by words and deeds so that they can learn to maintain and maintain these four expensive third-generation semi-fighters. .

As he kept changing places to perform tasks, Lin Mo had fewer and fewer sources of metal food for the metal dragon. Anyway, idle time was idle. Adhering to the principle of diligent housekeeping, Lin Mo did not let go of any trace of possible Get the opportunity to get metal, take the initiative to join in the work of assembling fighter jets, and earn some rations for gold coins without anyone noticing.

The two engineers, Bai Fei and Yang Songlei, were deeply surprised. They didn't expect that Lin Mo could master the not-so-simple skill of assembling airplanes even though he had hidden his secrets. They couldn't believe it at first, but Lin Mo casually mentioned his skills. The structure and assembly process of the J-10A made the two engineers believe that this air force lieutenant really had experience in assembling fighter jets. If he had not done it himself, he might not even know where the parts were in the aircraft. Don't know.

Based on Lin Mo's understanding and modification experience of the J-10a, his experience in assembling the J-10 is not much worse than that of these two engineers.

With Lin Mo's help, the work efficiency of the two engineers has been greatly improved. The four aircraft began to be assembled simultaneously. The instructions shipped to Zambia were all translated into English. Every component assembly will be repeatedly verified whether it is correct. You can start the test machine and adjust it first, and be extremely careful.

This is just like the production of a space shuttle. If a rag is forgotten inside the aircraft, it will cause decomposition in the air. It is mainly to guide people in Zambia to learn how to maintain it. Otherwise, just based on the two engineers' familiarity with the J-10, the speed will be increased by at least five or six times.

The newly arrived fighter jets excited everyone at the Zambian Air Force base. Mechanics and pilots rushed over to help. There was a circle of people surrounding the four FC-20s from morning to night. These mechanics and pilots were all there. Digest the knowledge of this batch of high-performance fighter jets as quickly as possible.

In order to successfully control these four brand-new fc-20s, the eight best pilots at Lusaka Air Force Base were selected and assigned to four Chinese Air Force instructors. Each instructor is responsible for two pilots. These eight pilots As a precious seed in Zambia, he will be trained as an instructor for pilots after continuing training.

Of course, other pilots are not refused to observe. If other pilots are willing, they are free to learn flight theory from any instructor. However, they are not qualified to fly on the FC-20 for the time being. However, later, to the surprise of the Chinese Air Force instructor, from the beginning to the end At the end, only these eight pilots could take the initiative to follow their four instructors, but none of the other pilots came to listen. Like most Zambians, they just left when the time came and only guarded their own acre. Three-thirds of the ground, never take one more step.

It’s like a true joke among Chinese people working in Zambia about Zambian locals. The blasting point has been opened in the mine and the explosives have been inserted. All it takes is the last push of the detonator. The bell rings and the Zambian workers immediately take it back. The hand that pressed the detonation button was exactly on time. He patted his butt and left without delaying a second. He left the detonator and explosives there and saved them for tomorrow's working day. If the next day is a holiday, Not to mention, see you on Monday!

Most Zambians are born optimists, and some customs and habits will really make the hard-working Chinese laugh or cry.

Among the two pilots assigned to Lin Mo, one of them was Lieutenant Grafido, whom he first met when he first arrived at the base. His skin was a bit white, and he might be of mixed race. The other was Lieutenant Nolav, a Zambian who was short and stocky. There is only a given name but no surname. Generally, according to Western habits, the last word is often used as the surname. This does not mean that the next generation will still use this word as the surname. Usually, one word from the father's name is intercepted as a symbol of inheritance.

Although he is not a senior pilot at the Lusaka base, he is still young and has strong learning ability, so he will receive special training as a seed pilot for the fc-20.

It has to be said that this kind of ultra-small class one-to-two teaching is much more efficient than the teaching method of one class with several people. It can train qualified pilot seeds for Zambia in the shortest time. Every Chinese pilot is a national citizen. They are valuable assets and have a short flight life cycle, so it is impossible to waste a lot of time in these countries. The training cycle for Lin Mo and his team is only a short three months.

Lin Mo's teaching method was quite special. He did not follow the outline at all. He took the two pilots to follow an FC-20 that was being assembled and participated in the assembly work together.

Lin Mo told them: "Only by understanding every component of a fighter jet can it maximize its performance. In actual combat, sometimes just one sliver of advantage is enough to defeat the opponent."

The two Zambian pilots who didn't quite understand why Lin Mo did this immediately nodded. They had to admit that Lin Mo's words were very reasonable. In an air battle, a slight mistake can lead to a huge mistake. Often a small difference in advantages and disadvantages will directly become the decision. The key to victory or defeat.

"Yes, yes! Pay attention to the fasteners. You only have one chance for these special-shaped cold-fit fasteners. If you fail, congratulations, your salary for a year will be gone! If you buy another set of standard parts, you will have to wait for one. It takes months to use your fc-20."

"See, don't rely too much on vector power. It's just a small deformation to change the direction of thrust. If you find that the opponent has also made such changes, it means that he is trying to get rid of you during the fight, and he will use the thrust in the opposite direction. Stop him with a cannon and make sure you hit him accurately."

"Pay attention to the anti-icing system. At altitudes above 4,000 meters, you should pay attention to temperature control. Losing temperature too quickly will paralyze your reaction speed. Bring the turbo pump over and don't touch the spoiler! I'll show it to you. Look carefully. , but there is no second chance. If your opponent does not notice this, congratulations, the freezing of the machine will make him your best target. If you forget this, the target will become you."

Lin Mo walked around the fighter jet with the tools and asked Grafido and Nolav to help him. The two of them installed the unimportant components.

"Yes, 'Lin'!"

The two Zambian pilots who served as Lin Mo's apprentices affectionately called Lin Mo "Lin". Isn't this the crisp sound of gold coins hitting each other?

The video of Lin Mo's outstanding performance at the Zhuhai Air Show not long ago impressed these Zambian pilots who had seen the video.

When they learned that Lin Mo was the pilot codenamed "Golden Coin", Grafido and Nolav even hugged each other excitedly and screamed, while other pilots cast envious glances.

Although Lin Mo is younger than most of the pilots here and even has a higher military rank than him, it does not affect his status in the minds of these people.

In their eyes, pilots who can fly such powerful low-altitude Cobra maneuvers and fire their cannons so accurately are simply true aerial aces. You can imagine how lucky they are.

Grafido and Nolav were busy. As pilots, the two of them had no doubts about Lin Mo's words and did not ask why. They did whatever Lin Mo said and carried it out completely resolutely.

Lin Mo was by their side to guide them in assembling the fighter jet, and at the same time taught them the role of each component, what to do if they encountered a malfunction, and how to use these components to enhance air combat advantages and even exert unexpected combat effectiveness.

Major Huang De, Major Han Renguang and Captain Zou Han never thought that Lin Mo would use such a teaching method. People are incomparable. Although they have a standard syllabus, they do not have detailed explanations of the various parts of the fighter jet. Lin Mo's content was not as detailed and thorough as Lin Mo's, especially the incredible combat techniques derived from it. These are not found in textbooks. It is even impossible to imagine that Lieutenant Lin Mo would have such rich experience in tactical maneuvers.

However, due to military needs, some special parameters and exclusive combat skills that can only be exerted by the J-10 are not included in the syllabus, and instructors such as Lin Mo have reserved their skills for this purpose.

"Well done, guys! That's it for today. Let's rest for a while. We will try the K-8 in the afternoon and then tell you the difference between it and the FC-20." Lin Mo watched the two Zambian pilots assemble it by themselves. , covered with putty, black people are almost turning into gray people.

Lin Mo was directly selected to enter the 7759th Brigade. He learned the operation of the J-10 based on advanced simulators and the L-15 Falcon advanced trainer aircraft. He did not start with two years of theory and then one year of level-by-level training like ordinary students. A three-step regular learning process for beginner, intermediate to advanced trainers.

Because he had better talents, Lin Mo was selected into the 7759 brigade together with other students, and directly entered the special teaching process, directly reaching the sky in one step.

Due to poor conditions, Zambian pilots cannot follow the normal training process. Many teaching steps have been streamlined. Basically, it is a crash course in fighter jets, which depends on the pilots' hard work. However, in terms of air combat skills, they are still lagging behind those of China, Russia and the United States. China is a large country, and the gap in industrial base and technology cannot be bridged by manpower.
