Although Qin Tao often sees carrier-based aircraft, the number of times he has flown on carrier-based aircraft is only a handful, and the number of times he has flown on fighter jets is even less. This time, being able to ride on such a combat machine gave Qin Tao a strange feeling.

It feels like you can see everything around you from the cockpit cover, and you feel like you are flying in the blue sky and white clouds.

No wonder pilots are different from others. American pilots like to ride motorcycles because riding a motorcycle means flying in the wind, while flying an airplane means flying in the sky. The two are very similar.

This feeling is different from flying on a passenger plane, because the passenger plane only has one porthole to look out of, but now, this bubble-type cockpit makes people feel as if their upper body is in the sky.

This is what flying feels like!

"Shui Mo, how did you feel when you flew for the first time?" Qin Tao suddenly asked.

"The first time I flew? I was in aviation school. It was the first time I flew into the sky on a J6. I remember it very clearly. I was a little scared and didn't dare to open my eyes. It was really embarrassing." Shui Mo said.

Qin Tao became a little curious: "You are actually afraid? Then how do you overcome your fear?"

"Skydiving, when I was learning to fly, there was a skydiving subject. I jumped a few more times than others, and to be the first to go out, I had to fall to a low altitude before opening the parachute. After a few times, I was no longer afraid." Shui Mo said:

"Of course, now, when flying a fighter plane, the last thing we want to do is parachute."

Pilots cannot parachute. Parachuting means abandoning the fighter plane that has been with them for many years. They would rather sacrifice their lives than abandon their beloved fighter plane!

"Is it pulling the tab between the legs?" Qin Tao asked.

The person in front suddenly became nervous: "Mr. Qin, don't move!"

"Of course I won't move." Qin Tao said, "I don't want to become your joke and be passed down by you for decades."

This kind of thing really does happen. Delano happened to it. When he was flying a Tomcat fighter jet as an air taxi, the officer in the back seat pulled the tab and then ejected. He had no cockpit.

Guy's plane flew back. As for the officer, he became a joke.

The blue sky and white clouds seemed to be within reach. Qin Tao liked this feeling, but the experience was short-lived.

The outline of land has appeared ahead.

The base of Wasteland Village is right on the seaside, so when you see the land, it means that you are approaching the end of the journey. Shui Mo spoke again: "Mr. Qin, do you want to experience a blocking cable landing?"

"I don't want to." Qin Tao simply refused.

Are you kidding me? When the arresting cable is used for landing, the landing gear comes into contact with the deck, which will make people feel like they suddenly fell to the ground. When the arresting cable is pulled on, it will be even more exciting.

Qin Tao doesn't want to experience this feeling, never!

"Okay, then we will land normally."

After Qin Tao's J-15 landed, he saw a two-seater J-15 crashing down on the simulated deck nearby, and his heart suddenly trembled.

Nicholas, with your fat body, can you withstand such an impact? In such a collision, you are afraid that your intestines will be knocked out? If you can't, don't try hard.

The two planes slid to the apron from different places and finally stopped together. The ramp was set up. Qin Tao got down from the ramp. On the plane next to him, Nicholas sat on the ejection seat and waited.

After a long time, I finally gathered enough strength to climb down slowly.

"Nicholas, how do you feel?" Qin Tao asked with concern.

"Oh, I'm old. It's okay not to accept old age." Nicholas said: "I just wanted to experience it, but I didn't expect..."

"Your Excellency Nicholas, do you want to do a full body check?" The base commander who came to receive him asked. He glanced at the bold pilot with dissatisfaction in his eyes. Who asked you to actually use the blocking rope to land?

?If something happens to Mr. Nicholas, who can take the responsibility? Nicholas is Mr. Qin’s best friend. If something happens to him, then we will not have such a powerful ally in the future.

He didn't make it clear when he called. Everyone thought it was Mr. Qin who wanted to experience blocked landing. After all, Mr. Qin was still young and strong, so everyone didn't pay attention. Unexpectedly, Mr. Qin shrank and honestly

Landing on an ordinary runway, this Nikola actually wanted to try something new.

"No need." Nicholas said: "I think, I want to have a drink. As long as I can drink a few sips of vodka, no, Maotai, I will be glowing with the second spring of life immediately."

"Of course, let's go, Nicholas, let's go have a drink." Qin Tao said.

The base commander's eyes were complicated. What does this mean? Wine is omnipotent and can cure diseases?

The psychology of this old man is indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

"Walk."

Seeing the two people walking in front, the base commander quickly followed them.

There is no bar in the base. After all, this is the most important training base. As long as everyone has time, they will ponder various techniques. No one will take time to drink a glass of wine. However, during major festivals, the base will still provide

It’s for drinks. Therefore, there are fine wines stored in this base. Now that Nicholas wants to drink, what else can we say? Of course we have to supply them. Our base can still afford to supply a few bottles of Maotai.

The two of them crossed the runway, crossed the apron, and headed towards the base canteen. Along the way, they could see various training scenes. Those with flight missions were dressed neatly and walked towards the plane, while those without flight missions were holding model airplanes.

Practicing on the ground, there were some physical fitness practitioners who were spinning the training equipment nearby.

Looking at the scene here, Nicholas was very envious.

"Qin, we also need such a training base! Our pilots need strict training!"

"Ahem, Nikolai, our training base is very tight, I'm afraid we don't have time to train pilots for you." Qin Tao was a little embarrassed.

Seeing that the 003 aircraft carrier is about to enter service, it still needs to be equipped with carrier-based aircraft and pilots. Our own pilot training is also very busy.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Yes, our base is very nervous, unless..." At this moment, a voice sounded next to him.

Looking at the familiar figure, Qin Tao secretly complained in his heart, Dad, why did you suddenly appear here? What is your plot? You didn't say it either!

"Unless what?" Nicholas looked at Wu Shengli: "Leader Wu, we have been old friends for many years. If you need anything, just ask!"

"It's not necessary." Wu Shengli said: "If you purchase J-15s from us, you can naturally train them here."

Qin Tao became even more suspicious. What happened to this father-in-law? He actually became a lobbyist for the Northern Office?

"Leader Wu, we do have plans to outsource." Nikolai said: "However, we are more interested in your stealth fighter. If we have enough funds and no one in the country objects, I think,

We even hope to obtain fighters like the J-32, and if we can equip our amphibious assault ships with the J-31A, we can form a system."

Lao Maozi himself owns the Su-33. Although the actual performance is not very good, in Lao Maozi's eyes, it is at the same level as the J-15. Lao Maozi will definitely not equip two identical fighters twice. If he wants to

In terms of equipment, it must be developed by leaps and bounds.

Wu Shengli was a little embarrassed and looked at Qin Tao for help, while Qin Tao looked into the distance: "Let's talk about the procurement later. Next, let's go have a drink!"

"That's right, let's go have a drink." Nicholas said, "Leader Wu, will you come too?"

The leaders of the base followed behind and never had a chance to speak. After entering the canteen, they helped set up the mess and quickly prepared a table of meals and then poured wine for everyone.

"Come on, Nicholas, let's have a drink to calm down. Dad, you can do whatever you want, but don't drink too much, otherwise Mom and Xiaoling won't let me go."

"Taozi, you are afraid of them, not me, right?"

"Of course not, Dad, this is not fear, this is love. Do you understand love?"

Wu Shengli picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and drank all the wine into his mouth.

Nicholas had a smile on his face: "Qin, come, let's drink!"

After a few glasses of wine, Nicholas's face showed a hint of drunkenness, and he started to talk too much.

"In fact, our navy is very much looking forward to purchasing carrier-based aircraft from the East, especially stealth aircraft. This will allow our navy to quickly enter the era of stealth aircraft and form a generational advantage over the Americans. However, the domestic Sukhoi Design Bureau has always

They are all trying to hinder it." Nicholas said: "If we want to purchase, we must give this cake to the country. Taking into account the balance of various interests, the boss also supports this plan."

Nicholas was a little depressed.

"Currently, the Sukhoi Design Bureau is developing the stealth Su-57. This fighter aircraft will take a long time to develop, and even if it is developed, I am afraid it cannot be improved into a carrier-based aircraft. If we use our own products,

There is only the MiG-29K, and the performance of this fighter is too poor to meet the needs of future wars."

"This is simple." Qin Tao said: "We can have a confrontation exercise. In the exercise, we will use our absolute advantage to beat your aircraft to the ground. In this way, the boss will probably agree. After all,

The aircraft carrier has been renovated, and the only thing missing is the carrier-based aircraft."

"That's right, use our J-15! Our J-15 can form a crushing advantage over the MiG-29K!" Wu Shengli said at the side.

Qin Tao originally wanted to talk about the J-32. This advantage can only be achieved by a stealth aircraft versus a non-stealth aircraft. A J-15 versus a MiG-29K? The result of this confrontation will not be very eye-catching.

What is my father-in-law thinking?

Qin Tao was really speechless, but now he did not dare to refute his father-in-law.

"Well, then let's organize a confrontation exercise." Nicholas said: "How about it be at your base in Wasteland Village?"

"good!"

After putting down the wine glass, Nicholas went to make arrangements. Qin Tao looked at his father-in-law: "Dad, what tricks are you playing?"

"Well, if there was any other way, I wouldn't do such a thing." Wu Shengli said with some helplessness: "Now, the carrier-based aircraft ordered by the navy are all J-20 and J-32. If

If we don’t get some orders, the J-15 production line will be closed. After all, our army has equipped a large number of J-15s. At that time, what will happen to our parts and so on? The J-15 production line should preferably be able to

If we maintain it for another five or even ten years, it will be just in time for our J-15 to be eliminated."

Only then did Qin Tao understand.

Once the order for a model ends, the production line will be shut down. Restarting the production line will cost a lot of money, and many of the supporting parts manufacturers may not be producing it anymore.

Look at the Yankee F22, which is the most representative. This aircraft was originally planned to have a production capacity of 700 to 800 aircraft. In the end, only less than 200 aircraft were produced, and the production line was closed. Then what? Then it can no longer be produced, and it will be restarted.

It takes a long time to start the production line. As for the fighters that are already in service, sufficient parts need to be stored in advance.

The Navy does not have many J-15 orders. The 001 aircraft carriers are all J-15s. When it comes to the 002 aircraft carrier, the J-32 accounts for about half of the size. When it comes to the 003 aircraft carrier, it is all stealth aircraft.

The heavy-duty J-20 and the medium-sized J-32 together form the carrier-based aircraft fleet of the 003 aircraft carrier. The lineup is very strong. But what about the J-5? There is no point in continuing to order them.
