Air-to-Air Relay Warfare—Non-stop Warning Detection and Training Training of a Naval Aviation Division Commander

In March of spring, full-element, long-duration, high-intensity early warning detection flight training for a naval aviation division in the eastern theater started in the early morning.

Above the sea and air, the pilot Wang Zun quickly climbed after receiving instructions.

Taking off on tactical action was not common in the past. Captain Liu Yin said that under the new combat style, special aircraft must not only provide air information support, but also undergo the test of "taking off to meet the enemy".

The reporter glanced at the division's flight schedule and saw the dense progress bar of the subjects. Tower Commander Chen Luhai introduced that this long uninterrupted relay flight not only implements reconnaissance early warning and patrol surveillance in a complex electromagnetic environment, but also intersperses back-to-back commanding air combat and guiding assaults on the sea into a number of practical subjects.

The paddles spin, the fighters roar, the voyages pierce the sky and fly towards the war!

Fly to battle! From the early morning of the day to the evening of the next day--

At dawn, the fighter jet ushered in the first rising sun on the clouds.

Detection and judgment, alert patrol, command and guidance ... Multiple tactical subjects are implemented continuously, and the fighter mission cabin operates efficiently.

A few hours later, multi-type fighter formation "back-to-back" combat air combat training began.

In the air "China Army Account", a fingertip showdown was staged. Radar member Sun Liang and electronic countermeasure member Zhang Linyun pointed at Rufei, and in an instant, they gathered an invisible "information flow". Under the guidance of the commanders and guides of the two sides, the Red fighter formation sometimes dived and pulled up, and then suddenly jumped up; Blue quickly adjusted its tactics.

The sea of ​​clouds is vast and murderous. Fight from high altitude to hollow, fight from medium distance to close range, red and blue fighters come and go, chasing and blocking, flying out of the physical and mental limits of personnel, flying out the best performance of equipment.

Fly to battle! From Wanli clear sky to foggy day——

After pilots Zhang Zejin and Guo Song drove the fighter for more than 3 hours, they plunged into the clouds. The body trembled violently, and overweight and weightlessness struck alternately.

"Fly under complicated weather conditions!" In the cockpit, the pilot worked closely with the air mechanic and pilot to maintain a stable attitude.

Where does "steadiness" come from? "Relying on military training in a complex and changeable environment." Guo Song, the first captain of the flight brigade, clearly remembered that the young army had carried out low-weather weather flights in less than two months after loading. The leader of the division said that the battlefield in the future will change rapidly. Only when the normalization accepts the baptism of complex conditions and refines the ability of man-machine to adapt to different environments, can the "last mile" of actual combat be opened.

Fly to battle! From the subject relay to the human equipment relay-

Twelve hours after the flight time, after Chen Luhai commanded the fifth batch of fighters to take off, another backbone team took over the flight command.

After 12 hours, Chen Luhai would return to the tower and continue to take over the command for 12 hours.

Carrying out uninterrupted relay flight and "coaxial rotation" of air-ground services are already the norm for this new air and sea combat force. In recent years, they have closely followed the actual situation of the army and coordinated the training resources of the entire division to organize training, so that the training effectiveness and the quality of conversion go hand in hand and complement each other.

The head of the division's training section, Kun Kun, introduced that the long-distance uninterrupted warning detection training, from group training planning, personnel deployment, action effects to the use of tactical combat methods, etc., were carried out according to actual combat requirements, with high intensity and difficulty All the elements are a trial for the pilot and a test for the equipment.

The sun and the moon faint in the morning, and pillows are waiting. The fighters returned one after another and looked down the porthole. The city scene was bustling and the lights were bright ...
