Great Power Fighting Falcon

At the regiment's shift meeting on Friday night, Yu Chenglin joked, "Before the meeting, I would like to verbally praise Comrade Li Zhan, and at the same time congratulate Comrade Li Zhan on his successful return to flight. Everyone was chirping."

There was thunderous applause, accompanied by good-natured laughter.

Li Zhan blushed and stood up to salute everyone.

This was probably the only time Li Zhan landed smoothly after preparing for combat duty. In the past few times, he had been in danger or done something slightly out of line. For the regiment leaders, this is the best state they expect from Li Zhan.

"Okay, let's hold the shift meeting. Seeing that August is already halfway over, the regiment's training progress is a little slow. At the division's shift meeting just now, the division leader called on the names of our fourth regiment."

Yu Chenglin glanced at the group of young cadres.

All current squadron leaders, instructors and above must attend the shift handover meeting. Different from the last major handover of all cadres held in the division, this kind of handover meeting is the norm. The division meeting will be held first, with the participation of the commanders of the directly affiliated teams of each regiment, and then the team directly under each regiment will hold a shift handover meeting attended by the grassroots commanders. Generally speaking, the shift handover meeting on the last Friday of each month is more important. It's only half a month now, and the atmosphere is already very solemn, which shows that the training progress is indeed lagging behind.

Yu Chenglin said, "After the division handover meeting, the regiment leader called back from eastern Guangdong. Next month, the troops of our regiment stationed in eastern Guangdong for training will participate in the East China Sea exercise. The training progress there is very tight. The troops at home cannot relax, they must not hold back the division, but they must rush to the front."

"Both the Sixth Regiment and the Fifth Regiment have dispatched elites to participate in the National Day military parade training. The resources of the West County Station will be tilted towards our Fourth Regiment. Some of your comrades always complain that the flight time is not enough, and the lever fee is not enough. If you have a gap in your teeth, okay, in the next month or so, I’ll let you fly as much as you want.”

Everyone looked at Li Zhan in unison.

Li Zhan's face turned redder.

I originally set my heart towards the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch.

He could only comfort himself in this way.

What matters is the rod fee, isn't it just money? In his situation, even if he changes to a civilian job, the salary will be quite high. Besides, to serve as a soldier and eat royal food, you must first serve as a soldier, and then eat royal food. Opening and closing your mouth to pull the lever is expensive, and it's not his intention to look bad.

As a result, as soon as he expressed his intention, he was immediately criticized by his comrades, and his words were inconsistent.

Therefore, Li Zhan no longer explained it and could not explain it.

"The first is the solo training of new pilots. So far, the Fifth Regiment has flown four solos, the Sixth Regiment has more, six, and our Fourth Regiment only has two. The division chief has criticized this point in particular. Over the years The new pilots of our four regiments are all the fastest in solo flight. They are all simple second-generation aircraft. You can’t justify it if you are not the fastest! Well, this year is actually slower. I admit that there are objective factors, such as the encounters our regiment encountered this year. There were more dangers, and the training time in the first half of the year was therefore compressed." Yu Chenglin was quite excited and said cracklingly.

Everyone looked at Li Zhan again.

Li Zhan didn't know what to think.

It's unfair, I didn't want to, but the danger is targeting me, what can I do?

The training time of the fourth regiment has been greatly compressed due to frequent dangers, and is only about half of that of the same period in previous years. In fact, it was because Li Zhan encountered many dangerous situations, and each time became more severe. When it comes to safety issues, no matter how much you only focus on improving combat effectiveness, you have to pay attention to matters where human life is at stake. Grounding the whole group is a routine operation because they are of the same aircraft type. You have to first eliminate the design problems of the same model, then eliminate the maintenance problems, and then eliminate other problems until it is conclusively determined that it is an accidental danger.

Otherwise, why would the flight attendant come down every time to investigate?

The life of a fighter plane and one pilot, to put it bluntly, is a big deal.

Therefore, the solo flight speed of the new pilots of the Fourth Regiment this year was slower than in previous years, ranking at the bottom of the entire division. The division chief did not criticize them harshly, but only gave a quick nod. But this already made the leaders of the fourth regiment very anxious, as if they had been insulted.

The Fourth Regiment has the worst equipment, but its training has always been the most solid, and it ranks first in the division in all aspects of work. This state of affairs seems to have been broken after Li Zhan arrived. First, there was a mechanical failure on Yu Chenglin's aircraft, and then Li Zhan himself encountered constant dangers, for which he had to crash a J-7. This phenomenon cannot be tolerated without others muttering to themselves - that guy is just a broom star.

Therefore, as soon as they heard what Yu Chenglin said, everyone looked at Li Zhan in unison, which was definitely a subconscious action.

"The division has agreed. If nothing unexpected happens, most of the flying days at Xi County Station in the next few months will be ours. You guys, don't let me slip up at the critical moment. You should fly and practice. , don’t worry about aviation fuel, the army doesn’t lack your rod fee, as long as you provide me with training.”

Yu Chenglin waved his hand vigorously, and this action cheered everyone up.

Unlike Commander Tang, Deputy Commander Yu would never dare to make such a promise without a solid commitment from the division. Captain Tang was different. He said whatever came to his mind. If there were no conditions, he would go to the division to ask for it. If he couldn't get it, he would cheat and pester him.

Who doesn’t want to fly more airplanes, not to mention the majority of them are young pilots? This also depends on the equipment. Most of the pilots flying J-7 are young pilots, and those with some experience have been transferred to fly third-generation aircraft. Therefore, the Fourth Regiment often laughs at itself. In recent years, it has only trained talents for others. The Fourth Regiment is not just a teaching team.

Just when everyone thought that the increase in flight days was the only good news at tonight's shift meeting, Yu Chenglin suddenly said, "There is second good news."

He glanced at everyone, and when everyone was staring at him with bated breath, he said word by word, "The superiors have decided to change our clothes."

Just when everyone was about to jump for joy, they suddenly came back to their senses.

Hey, it's a change of clothes, not modification.

What's the meaning?

Yu Chenglin faced everyone's doubtful eyes and said, "Replacement with J-7G, the latest J-7. All the J-7Es we eliminated will be handed over to the second-line troops in the interior."

Everyone is ready to blow up the nest.

Didn’t we agree to refit the J-11B at the end of the year? Why the hell did it become the J-7G? Even the latest J-7 cannot compare with the J-11B. A second-generation machine cannot be transformed into a third-generation machine no matter how much it is modified. How can you convince everyone if you replace it with this one?

Yu Chenglin did not dare to whet his appetite, and said before everyone exploded, "It will not affect the modification of the J-11. I want to remind you that the modification of the J-11 was originally a plan for next year, but now the superiors say it will be done in The reason for the modification at the end of this year is to take into account the special situation of our Second Division. Now we are switching to J-7G because the army has given many improvement suggestions to the manufacturer, and the batch of J-11B equipped to us will be later than planned. Some are in service. But no matter how late it is, it will not be more than two years. Full combat means waiting more than one year longer than before. During this more than a year, our fighters must maintain the most advanced status in active service in the Air Force, so the superiors decided to give Let’s switch to J-7Gs, and when the J-11Bs are put into service, these J-7Gs will also be handed over to our brother units. Tell me, apart from our Second Division, which unit can enjoy such treatment?”

These words made everyone smile, and their chests couldn't help but stand up.

That was a fighter jet that cost tens of millions to build, and a single change would cost billions in military expenses. Let you use them for a year or two first. When the new third-generation aircraft come out, you will be given priority to replace them. The eliminated J-7Gs will then be given to other troops. For some troops, the J-7Gs are already so advanced that they do not recognize them. Now that the aircraft is in use, you can fly as fast as you can, and all the good stuff will be with you first.

This kind of special treatment does not make people feel comfortable.

It is obvious that Nan Batian's reputation is not in vain, and it also fully demonstrates that the superior leadership agencies attach great importance to this front-line combat force that has always been in the southernmost position, not just in general, but very seriously.

Li Zhan touched his nose and realized that these things had little to do with him. He was now a special personnel and led the Nighthawk Squadron mainly to fly J-8FR. It can be said that it has no impact on him whether he changes his equipment or not to the J-7G.

With this in mind, after the meeting, he would hurry up and write down the flight log of the long-term routine patrol, and then cooperate with the reconnaissance department to sort out the collected wireless signals and other intelligence.

This is the highest level of confidentiality.

The National Day holiday is over and the update time is back to normal.
