Chapter 865 - Knowing that There Are Tigers in the Mountains

The forward-swept wing fighter is definitely an alternative among current fighter jets. Although it has extremely excellent aerodynamic characteristics, humans still do not have the ability to fully mass-produce it.

Although breakthroughs have been made in materials, the cost of mass production is enough to bankrupt any country's air force.

This is also the reason why the Chinese aviation industry is still sitting on Lin Mo's "Monster" deformable wing prototype. Everyone has the drawings, and even the materials and accessories list is complete, and there is no shortage of anything.

On the production line? Sorry, the mass production cost of the "Monster" is at least 20 times that of the F-22. If you have the spare money, you might as well build a few more Tissots.

What's more, many of the important components were stolen by Lin Mo without spending money, and the domestic technical conditions made it impossible to complete reverse engineering and copy them in a short time.

The aerodynamic effect displayed by the x-8 "Monster" comes from the effect of the repulsion shield. The basic aerodynamic surface and the repulsion shield form a very complex aerodynamic form. The "Monster" deforming wing fighter is more than enough to serve as a sparring partner.

Different from the tactical drills in the middle of the training course, the two pilots Jin Hongbao and Miao Haodong really felt murderous intent and even the threat of death.

That's right, every maneuver of that mysterious fighter that perfectly simulated the flight characteristics of the Su-37 was extremely sophisticated. Every move easily included them within the geometric angle of the nose attack. That was the most dangerous area with the highest destruction rate. The pilots of the two J-10B fighter jets almost tried their best.

Pilots need actual combat to truly grow. Defeating your own people in training will not only increase your fighter operating proficiency. Meaningless.

Once on the battlefield, their enemy is unlikely to be the J-10 fighter jet, and they will encounter a fighter type with unfamiliar aerodynamics.

In order to increase the accuracy and authenticity of the assessment of this intensive training class, Lin Mo discussed with two other instructors and passed the approval of his superiors, and obtained the permission to take off the deformed wing fighter.

I believe that the professional quality of the students who have gone through this intensive training class will satisfy everyone.

The higher the quality of this group of students, it means that the level of pilots who receive the inheritance of air combat skills at the next level will also rise accordingly.

For something that can significantly improve the strength of the Air Force. Why wouldn't the military do this? Even if something unexpected happened, it would be nothing compared to the more than thirty high-quality pilots who were about to depart.

This unprecedented assessment is equivalent to practicing with real foreign fighter jets. It has great practical significance.

However, Lin Mo has extremely rich practical experience. This move has changed rapidly, making some top military experts eager to try it.

The excellent super maneuverability of the "Su-37" challenges two with one. Still doing it with ease.

The nose of the "Monster" transforming wing fighter that guest-starred as the Su-37 pointed at one of the J-10B fighters. The other J-10B fighter jet suddenly turned and flew away like a frightened fish, while the other J-10B fighter jet caught it in time. Taking the opportunity, he launched a PL-9 close-range combat missile at Lin Mo again.

Good opportunity!

After experiencing brutal training, these pilots have made great progress in both their psychological and combat capabilities.

However, it is still far from enough to win the "Monster" deformable wing fighter that simulates the state of the Su-37.

As the true evolutionary form of the Su-27, the "Scalpel over the Barents Sea", the Su-37 has breathtaking super maneuverability.

Just like the Su-27 originated the classic tactical maneuver of the Cobra maneuver, the Su-37 is also the original creator of the most popular tactical maneuvers "tail rush" and "bell shape".

The "Monster" morphing wing fighter, which also has top-notch vector propulsion technology, completely simulated the Su-37's true attack form, making the two J-10B fighter pilots think they were really fighting a fierce Su-37.

Both sides are also vector propulsion engines, and the entanglement and flying in the sky is particularly dazzling, more than 10,000 meters above the Dabie Mountains. Drought thunder rang out in the sky. As long as a person looked up at the sky, he would find three small black spots among the thin clouds that quickly approached each other and then quickly moved away.

Although there was no missile launch trail, only small black dots could be seen clearly. But I can feel the murderous aura when the flight trajectories intersect with each other, as if I can hear the clang, clash, and the tide of killing cries in my ears.

Chinese pilots still have a certain understanding of Russian fighter jets. They have learned about the characteristics of the Su-37 through various videos and technical parameter materials in the past. Although they were in a hurry at the beginning, they quickly got into the mood.

This is only a semi-practical assessment, and the requirements for the examiner's overall control ability are very demanding. The two students could not be defeated in seconds like in real combat, nor could they just let the students counterattack casually. Through close-range and medium-range tactical maneuvers, the potential of the students under assessment will be truly elicited bit by bit.

Jin Hongbao and Miao Haodong adopt the tactic of two wolves fighting a lone bull, one attacking and one defending, one acting as a bait and the other acting as a trap. Their cooperation and switching roles are as smooth as flowing water.

If it weren't for the Dragon Knight's extremely rich aerial combat skills and practical experience, and still firmly controls the rhythm of the battlefield, if it were any other opponent, he might have been beaten to the left and right. After all, the students who can participate in the training class are all from different backgrounds. The seed pilot of an air force.

The tactics are arranged quite reasonably, both in terms of their own qualities and abilities, as well as the effect of the intensive training class, and each can at least get a mid-to-high grade.

A month ago, the two of them would never have been as comfortable as they are now. But now, both in theory and practical experience, they have made great progress.

Quickly adjusting the changes in the dual vertical tail rudders and performing a maneuver like a helicopter turning around, the "Monster" deformed wing fighter took the center of gravity of the fuselage as its axis, suddenly stayed in the air and completed a 360-degree horizontal turn, fired fiercely from its cannon, and took the opportunity to rush over. Miao Haodong, who launched the attack, was caught off guard and was judged by the exercise platform to have been blown up by the Su-37's aerial cannon.

"A Dong!"

Jin Hongbao exclaimed when he saw the wingman's triangular cursor on the radar screen turning into a destroyed gray.

"'Adong', you have been shot down. Now withdraw from the air combat area and return now."

Colonel Cao Yueyang, who was paying close attention to the actual combat assessment at the tower, promptly reminded Miao Haodong that this result had long been expected by him. Lin Mo's air combat prowess was almost obvious to all, otherwise he would not have been able to convince these people from all over the world so easily. elite pilots.

"Uh!~Yes!"

Miao Haodong finally recovered from the shock of being judged to have been shot down.

The instructor's fighter suddenly turned horizontally unexpectedly, turned its nose steadily, and locked fire, as if it had been waiting for him to come to the door without using any complicated skills at all.

This calm and calm tactical maneuver means that every move he makes has been anticipated by the instructor, and there is no secret at all.

This is still the instructor. If it were the real enemy, Miao Haodong would be cold at this moment. He had tried his best, and his condition had never been as good as now. He was particularly shocked by being defeated this time. huge.

Are you going to duel again?

Jin Hongbao's palms were sweating slightly. The wingman was defeated so fast that he couldn't even react...

To be honest, this big devil made him fearful like a conditioned reflex.

It’s hard to imagine that the other party actually participated in astronaut selection together with me. Are the aerospace departments blind? If such a top-level air and space fighter pilot is left alone, I am afraid that there will not be many masters in the country who can defeat Instructor Lin.

Go ahead to dangers.

While trying to avoid the lock of the "Su-37" behind him in a snake-like maneuver, Jin Hongbao suddenly used a circling and sharp turn. According to the textbook, his next maneuver should be to get rid of the pursuit from behind and regain the point.

But how could the Dragon Knight comply with Jin Hongbao's wishes? The "Monster" deformed wing fighter almost made the same tactical maneuver, using its own way to counter the other's voice, and continued to lock onto the opponent's six o'clock direction.

Unexpectedly, Jin Shunbao's next maneuver was not any escape maneuver, but a Cobra maneuver, which was a special tactical maneuver with eight points for attack and two points for defense.

The J-10 fighter happens to be one of the fighters in the world that can use the Cobra maneuver.

When someone used the Cobra maneuver against him, Lin Mo couldn't help but laugh, seeing through the student's plan at a glance.

The opponent is betting on the pursuer's mental inertia. This tactical maneuver is simply to create an artificial advantage in lagging pursuit.

If it were another pilot, it would mean that he would most likely be fooled.

But for Lin Mo, whose reaction speed is faster than that of ordinary people, his actual combat experience, which is even more brutal than a beast, does not follow the textbook model at all.

Therefore, it was destined that Jin Hongbao might not be able to succeed. The "Monster" deformed wing fighter also immediately raised the angle of attack in a matter of seconds, as if it was about to perform an identical Cobra maneuver.

No, this is not the imaginary Cobra maneuver. With the fuselage in the form of full air resistance, the speed of the fighter drops sharply. With the tail nozzle as the axis of rotation, it performs a rapid nose turn. The nose turns like a clock. The pointer is normal and rotates around the tail of the aircraft.

The vector propulsion engine assisted the "Monster" transforming wing fighter to easily perform a post-stall tactical maneuver - the bell maneuver. While adjusting the direction of the aircraft's nose, a virtual air-to-air missile detached from the built-in weapon bay.

There is no doubt that the Dragon Knight grasped the crux of the Cobra's maneuver and took advantage of the opponent's tactical flaws to deliver a fatal blow.

The J-10 fighter had not yet completed the Cobra maneuver and had completely lost its maneuverability. It inevitably gave up its largest cross-sectional area and its entire belly to the instructor's fighter.
