“Eagle” to fly thousands of miles a screen close

fog shrouded foothills of the Yanshan, with the deafening engine roar resounded through a military airport, an Army Aviation Hawk aircraft have been off, fly thousands of miles away Miles territorial seas.

Meanwhile, north of a highway, a mobile field army aviation battle command vehicle moving in the same direction of the gallop. Car battlefield electronic screen, a flashing red dot.

command seat, served as commander of the remote trans-regional mobility of the General Staff of Army aviation regiment head Zhang Zhilin, said to reporters, the command vehicle by the operational command module of , the air guide cabins, cabins and related information processing facilities formed, were set nearly 20 个 command operations and technical support seats seats can be realized within the scope of the battlefield, real-time monitoring of any one aircraft and dispatching.

tick! Tick! Tick! … …

interview was suddenly interrupted by a hasty alarm. I saw a dot on the screen is rapid blinking, and quickly pop up a red warning dialog box, the content display: 105 No. helicopter hydraulic system failure. Zhang head quickly move the mouse pointer to the dot position, the pointer down at the airplane’s speed, altitude, coordinates orientation and oil reserves, and other information parameters at a glance.

” 105, pay attention to the hydraulic system failure! “” 105, note. execute contingency plans for No. 1, quickly out of formation! “” 105 , according to the manual provides procedures for equipment check! “… …

“understand!” “ 105 has been out of formation.” “105 has been started from inspection. “… …

a few seconds, a string of commands and replies through the information network in the command platform and 105 between the receiving end of Unit rapid delivery. Meanwhile, the 105 helicopter self-test parameters to obtain a large number of platforms have been timely sent to the command platform. Reporters found that the former “phone calls, look at the map, use the sandbox” and other traditional means in hard to find, commander-line interpretation, facing the screen summoned. Soon after I command-line interaction with crew members, a comprehensive determination, confirm that the alarm system malfunction lights of the cockpit panel, the insurance automatically disconnect switches cause false positives. Quickly press the pilot switches, alarm immediately lifted.

” this continues I have a job! “fleet after the successful landing of a coastal airport, 105 number, not without emotion, the helicopter pilot Cheng Qingxin said, “Now the function of the system have included the pilot and the mechanic responsible for the air past a lot of work, the pilot can not only control their fighters in the successful completion of combat missions, but also in the air and self-test failed to address many helicopters.”

” command mode changes, the surface is a means of battlefield information to obtain the change, in essence, fighting quietly generated patterns change. “regiment for training mode changes brought about new changes, the head Zhang familiar: the past, communications and liaison vulnerable landscape clouds, and today the use of command and information systems, command precision; previous voice command and confidentiality of the poor, vulnerable to electromagnetic interference, and now the use of random frequency-hopping technology, security and stability , send and receive freely … …

group “Eagle” vibration Xiang, sea and air wings

several aircraft painted camouflage green, brown and white helicopters and reconnaissance helicopters, in a waterfront lined up on the runway, showing bursts of dignity . Several other large transport aircraft body more helicopters, lying quietly in the other side of the runway, ready to fly.

flight three battalion regiment soldiers Nguyen told reporters that these types of models, both the front and the enemy can effectively damage an important goal within the deep tactical helicopters, but also can carry out aerial reconnaissance, warning, electronic countermeasures and other tasks of reconnaissance helicopter, and can be implemented quickly force delivery, transport helicopter landing operations. Today, many models of maritime training courses flying in formation, the purpose is to accomplish diverse military tasks require focused efforts to promote the combat capability of the attack on Lu Hanghai shipped with a useful exploration of the transformation.

“shoop, shoop, shoop” With three rounds of green flares pierced the sky, a huge roar in the rotor, the helicopter base in succession into the sky, went to sea.

Soon, the sea like blue satin unfolded before our eyes. Overlooking the sea, strong airflow stirring water, setting off a huge wave, splash dance, mist rising. The cabin, crowded flight instruments, meters, lights flashing, showing the various parameters, Journey Into Amazing Caves of two worlds. Reporters transport helicopters from the control panel 303 on the display screen, meteorological information is displayed: Wind 5, wind speed 8-11 m/s … …

sky and sea, stormy, there is no fixed frame of reference, the slightest mistake could sky upside down, get lost into the sea.

20 minutes after the helicopter to accelerate access to low-altitude sea-skimming flight, outside the windows, Yunfei Langjuan. Soon, reporters began to feel blurred vision. The original helicopter has been drilled into the sea fog low clouds. Chan told reporters that the captain, sea weather changing, more low clouds and fog this season the most urgent, the most frequent.

tens of seconds, the porthole glass becomes vast expanse, not see anything. Reporters nervous heart bounced throats. Can not help but wonder: “Can we returned safely it?” Will be curious to ask: “there is no point of reference around, how do you know where to fly the helicopter?” Chan said, not without pride, “the helicopter terminal on the information network, not only to clearly show the local altitude, speed and attitude, and can prompt the formation of precise location, so even in the pitch-dark dark night, it is also to ensure the orderly and safe fleet. “

At the same time, the reporter suddenly felt the helicopter nose up the belief, upper body, he kept falling back, they quickly grasp the top of the tank security Stopper. Chan can still firmly holding the stick, as if nothing had happened. Asked him not pulled up high. He laughed: “You have a misconception of the. If pilots have this illusion is very dangerous you. Misconception most likely because of miscalculation in the opposite direction to adjust flight attitude, and perhaps into the sea risk.”

1 hour and 20 minutes later, planes landing win back market. Special trip to the sea with the guidance and training to fly the General Staff Army Aviation Training and Pilot at the Department of yellow gram Director Chao told reporters: “The sea training, take a large fleet of helicopters, small echelon, large distances, small interval methods such as multi-plane formation implementation, is Lu Hangfei line training to attack by the transport type of combined transport, land-based tasks to perform by the Executive maritime tasks from a single batch of a single large fleet of aircraft flying in formation flight to change a successful practice. “

Night “Eagle” sailed fighting waves

“the direction of the target 02! 201,202,301,302, emergency dispatch!” night, with the commander Zhang Zhilin order, hanging playing plenty of carrying helicopters and transport helicopters, the commandos roared toward the target area. Complex environment, the island regiment rescue drills on this night began.

few minutes later, reporters take the lead plane – 201 No. helicopter had been flying into the deep, dark outside the windows, accompanied by the deafening roar of the engine surging waves voices. Zhaode Rong, deputy head of the machine control pointing to the front of the sea, said the night sky and sea training at sea, less clearly marked, easy to produce the illusion, disposal of special intelligence complex, and today set the tactical background subjects: the sea merchant ships were armed terrorists kidnapping to a deep-sea islands, the hostages lives are at stake, army aviation regiment was ordered to the rescue.

hidden sailing, low altitude into the … … with a few armed helicopters cover of darkness, cleverly avoid detection of terrorist forces, fast approaching the island target.

“sea-skimming flight!” Fly over the target airspace, Zhao Derong wingman immediately issued battle orders.

deep-sea islands, unfamiliar airspace, flurry monstrous waves. Pressing the joystick, Zhao Derong helicopter driving the rapid decline, almost vertical toward the sea … … 200 meters, 100 meters, 50 meters … the height of the sea a little bit of the helicopter going down, the reporter’s mind was to fall. At the moment the helicopter is about to touch the waves, body gently flick the resumed level flight. Dashboard display: altitude 10 meters, speed 170 km per hour. Soon, he quickly fell behind wingman 10 to 15 meters of airspace.

At this point, less than 200 meters high cloud base, visibility less than 2 km offshore gusts up to 20 m/s, extremely inclement weather conditions, suddenly I saw from Long Beach in camouflage Hawk “breathe” jump , with lightning speed landing commandos, and a strong air power launched a strong attack to terrorists … … under the vast night, across a section of bright “fire dragon” terrorist forces to build fortifications and instantly turned into a cutting-edge flames.

“301,302, to seize a favorable position, quickly landing!” Destroy the forefront of work afterwards, Zhao Derong transport helicopter crew immediately issued a landing order.

“301 understand!” “302 understand!” Transport unit came short forceful response. Immediately, the reporter saw the door open at two transport aircraft, special operations commandos in the flashing anti-collision lights illuminated, as if a gold bullets collide, toward the aid target.

out of the cabin, an air waves and the damp sea breeze blowing, the foot of towering forest of rock chaos Beach, actually makes the reporter a hard time based on stability. Even more incredible is that none of all the helicopters actually landed completely to the ground, all by unilateral wheel landing, the other side of the wheel is always hovering in the air. Zhao Derong tells us that this is the helicopter landing field, a difficult move, but also the most widely used in actual combat, a tactical action.

after a brief resistance, the terrorists without a fight.

With a great roar, suddenly rotor speed, the aircraft took off again, like a group of agile eagle, carrying the rescued hostages triumphant return.

Knowledge Link: Army Aviation flight training at sea

flying sea sky and sea, prone to loneliness and fear, thinking and affect the normal operation of the pilot action. Less available for visual reference to judge, helicopter pilot almost feel no relative motion with the sea, easy to produce sensory illusions, leading to flight speed easily mistaken for much smaller, from easy to mistake much of the past, highly error-prone high-low, once significant deviation, the consequences could be disastrous.

2002 In May, Army Aviation focus on improving combat capability at sea, for the first time to organize themselves at sea in flight training courses. Since then, the army of the Army Aviation flight training at sea have the characteristics of organizational learning at sea meteorological operational pilot system theory, the sea depth at low altitude, low altitude flight, island landing, formation of fire attack, hover landing abseiling and sea search and rescue highly difficult subjects research training, helicopter flight training ground and air to air and sea by the continuous expansion of sea-skimming maneuvers made a sudden jump in attacks and quickly concealed the enemy and a number of sea training innovations, maritime pilots and Army Aviation Flight Technology sea ??and air combat capability has improved significantly.
