Chapter 115 Canglong goes out to sea, heading south!

One month later, 601 test flight site.

Liu Chuanwu sat quietly in the office next to the hangar, waiting for the ground crew to conduct a final inspection on the Canglong fighter jet with hull number 02.

Sitting next to him was a man with the rank of colonel on his shoulder. He was holding a document and conveying the details of the upcoming mission to Liu Chuanwu.

"This mission is very difficult and dangerous, and various uncertain accidents may occur during the process."

"This is due to the particularity of this exercise. It is different from the opponent's previous exercises. Their purpose is to overwhelm us, so they will take measures beyond the conventional."

"Electronic interference and electronic countermeasures may occur. Due to the close proximity of the exercise location, you may be affected and forced to deal with unfamiliar war situations."

"In addition, the units expected to participate in the exercise include a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier."

"As for us, the air units participating in the exercise are mainly J-8 III, 6 J-10 modifications, and one J-22, which is you."

"In terms of the number of aircraft, the opponent is absolutely crushing."

"Furthermore, if an unexpected situation occurs, you cannot expect other units to bring you any help. Whether it is the J-10 or J-8 III, their range is not enough to support the completion of the exercise subjects before carrying out other actions. Their

The purpose is just to participate in acting."

"Only one of your planes will participate in our special plan."

Hearing this, Liu Chuanwu nodded silently.

There was no fluctuation in his heart because this was something he had already guessed.

In order to form a de facto "peer-to-peer deterrence", the scheduled sea area for this exercise is 600 kilometers away from China's nearest military airport. In the absence of an aircraft carrier, other types of aircraft with insufficient range can only fly back and forth at most.

Only the J-22, which has a range of more than 3,400 kilometers, can continue to perform combat readiness duty after completing the exercise mission.

"What's the content of the opponent's drill?"

he asked.

"Simulating a joint maritime strike against a large-scale extremist organization."

"A large-scale extremist organization?"

Liu Chuanwu couldn't help but laugh.

Which large-scale extremist organization has fighter jets? Which large-scale extremist organization can fight against an aircraft carrier?

It makes sense, but is it actually us who are the imaginary enemies?

——

Of course, if he knew that more than ten years later, the Americans would actually use aircraft carriers to defeat "large-scale extremist organizations," he probably wouldn't find it so ridiculous now.

"Aren't we just a large-scale extremist organization?"

After hearing his words, the man nodded and replied:

"That's for sure. In their exercise script, we are the imaginary enemy."

"As for the specific details, according to their public information, the red and blue sides of this exercise are played by each country respectively, and each participating unit must play the red and blue sides at the same time, but it is obvious that they will allocate better combat capabilities.

On the red side.”

"Anyway, their purpose is to demonstrate, and you know this."

"You don't need to pay attention to their specific processes, but you only need to pay attention to one thing: don't let them approach our exercise area for any reason."

"In our judgment, it is possible for them to do such a thing."

"Of course, you are not fighting alone. Our surface ships will support you, and other participating aircraft will return after replenishment."

"I understand. What about us?"

Liu Chuanwu continued to ask:

"What is our imaginary enemy?"

A smile appeared on the man's face and he answered matter-of-factly:

"Our imaginary enemy is of course also a large-scale extremist organization."

The two looked at each other and smiled. The man stood up and said:

"The specific exercise arrangements will be communicated to you one after another in the next two days. I am here today just to have a heart-to-heart talk with you on behalf of my superiors so that you can be mentally prepared."

"As I said before, this mission is very dangerous."

"If it's done well, it's a successful deterrent."

"But if an accident occurs during the process, the most extreme situation is not impossible."

"After all, no one can say for sure what happened when a gun went off."

"Understood, superiors, please rest assured and promise to complete the task!"

Liu Chuanwu stood up and saluted a military salute. The man stood at attention and returned the salute, then turned and left.

At this moment, Canglong 02 completed its final inspection.

Liu Chuanwu walked towards his fighter plane and climbed up the gangway into the cockpit.

Over the past few months, he had become extremely familiar with this fighter plane, but when he saw it again, he still felt an inexplicable sense of strangeness.

The radar system has been replaced.

Now, this fighter plane is equipped with the 1418 type fighter digital array radar newly developed by the 14th Institute.

Compared with the previous Doppler radar, the performance of this radar can be said to have undergone earth-shaking changes.

It can detect multiple long-range targets simultaneously, including stealth aircraft.

It can track up to 120 targets at the same time, detect large targets at a distance of 500 kilometers, detect ordinary fighters at about 360 kilometers, and detect stealth fighters at a distance of 100 kilometers.

It only takes less than 5 seconds to complete a 120-degree angle scan.

Compared with the recorded radars of other fighter jets in the same period, the overall performance is even calculated as a multiple.

With this radar, Canglong truly has eyes that can penetrate the sky.

Liu Chuanwu took a deep breath, the canopy of Canglong 02 slowly closed, and a pleasant electronic sound sounded. Only then did he realize that the aircraft's avionics system and flight control system had also been comprehensively updated.

Then, in the next two weeks, he must adapt to this aircraft as quickly as possible and make it truly become his comrade-in-arms.

He gently stroked every button in the cockpit, silently recording the locations of the newly added buttons in his mind.

Then, he pushed the throttle and slowly slid the plane out of the hangar and toward the takeoff runway.

The tower's voice came from the headphones.

"Canglong 02, the airspace has been cleared, all takeoff conditions are good, and you can take off."

"Understood, ready to take off."

Liu Chuanwu reached out to hold the joystick and pushed down the accelerator.

Then, a huge thrust came from behind him, a roar sounded, and the speed suddenly surged.

After just a few hundred meters, he pulled up the joystick.

With a lightening of his body, Canglong No. 02 rose from the ground.

"The radar system is working properly."

"Aviation electronics and flight control are working normally."

"The engine is working fine."

"Start the test flight mission."

The aircraft shuttled back and forth over the test field, completing test missions one after another with astonishing efficiency.

Although this was their first meeting after the transformation, Liu Chuanwu's running-in with this aircraft has been as smooth as if they were old friends.

He calmly completed the last lap and then called on the radio:

"Tower, the test flight mission is completed, do you want to land?"

"Canglong 02, don't land yet."

"Please go to the coordinate location, complete the cruise test there, and then return to the airport."

"clear."

Liu Chuanwu looked at the screen. The data link system had marked the target coordinate points for him.

He subconsciously repeated the coordinate data on the screen and said to himself:

"This coordinate. Go south."

On the other side, the tower also heard his voice.

The tower's reply came through the earphones.

"Yes."

"southward!"

"Xianxia World, Mechanical Ascension"

The dynasty was in turmoil, and Su Ming embarked on the path of spiritual practice and became an weapon refiner.
Chapter completed!
