Chapter 796 Qingcheng Nuclear Submarine Base!

After the falcon sat down, everyone who took the basic theory course "Carrier-based aircraft landing session" focused their attention on Zhou Hai.

The focus of the audience.

"Reporting to the head, carrier-based aircraft landing means completing the overall process of carrier-based aircraft take-off and landing, marking the initial combat capability of the aircraft carrier."

Zhou Hai stood up and faced Dai Minmeng on the podium, answering the question in a vernal voice.

As the most difficult part of the overall take-off and landing of carrier-based aircraft, landing is directly related to the combat effectiveness of carrier-based aircraft and aircraft carriers themselves.

"The answer was very good. Please sit down. Through the answers of the above three students, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the characteristics, concepts and importance of the landing process."

Dai Minmeng nodded, encouraged him, signaled to sit down, took the conversation and continued to speak, carefully explaining the information about the carrier-based aircraft landing process: "However, I also want to say that the landing process is undoubtedly the most demanding of flight technology among all carrier-based aircraft flight processes, and it is also the most dangerous place."

The highest requirement.

The highest risk.

The carrier-based aircraft landing process is definitely the most tingling existence during the entire flight stage, where the sword-tip dancer dances with the god of death.

If the difficulty coefficient of a normal carrier-based aircraft takes off is as high as five points, which is five times higher than the take-off and landing process of a landing fighter, then the difficulty coefficient of a carrier-based aircraft landing process suddenly surged to twenty times!

And the difficulty soars so much, it is obvious that the danger will also increase.

This is the most popular dance with the hideous god of death!

Everyone sitting in the seat was focused, listening while recording what Dai Minmeng said.

"How dangerous is the landing process? The process is complex, requires precision, and is susceptible to external factors. Taking the US Navy as an example, since the end of World War II, since incomplete statistics, more than 42 aircraft carriers of various types have had serious flight accidents such as death of pilots on carriers and crashes, including carrier-based aircraft. Among them, more than 70% of the flight accidents occurred in the landing process."

Dai Minmeng's eyebrows were restrained, his face was solemn, and his voice was three points higher, revealing a solemn meaning: "And in my country's carrier-based aircraft business, there have been dozens of takeoff accidents of all sizes, and most of them occurred during the land simulation of the landing process."

Dancing with the God of Death comes at a price.

On the night of May 26, 1981, the most serious flight accident in the history of the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier of the US Navy, the carrier-based aircraft was the most serious flight accident in the history of the outbreak of the USS Nimitz nuclear-powered aircraft. An EA-6b "Prowler" electronic carrier-based aircraft performed night landing training.

Because the landing process failed to align with the midline of the deck landing area, the fuselage position was on the left and the head was on the right, and the landing speed exceeded the specified speed, resulting in the failure of the landing process. The out-of-control EA-6b "Prowler" electronic carrier-based aircraft crashed into three F-14a "Panda" heavy carrier-based aircraft, and a chain reaction was caused.

In the end, a total of 14 crew members were killed and 45 seriously injured in this carrier-based aircraft landing accident, including six US warships. The direct economic losses exceeded US$500 million and indirect economic losses exceeded US$6 billion. This left an unforgettable gift for the "Nimitz" that was the first Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier at the time, becoming a new milestone in the carrier-based aircraft landing accident, setting an unparalleled world record.

There is no way, not all aircraft carriers are eligible to lose more than $6 billion in indirect economy and break the world record of human civilization.

Of course, you can’t just look at others and not yourself.

In addition to the US Navy, since the birth of the first Liaoning aircraft carrier and the establishment of the Qingcheng base, it has also experienced flight accidents of various levels, including the dream chaser who flew the No. 117 J-15 "Flying Shark" carrier-based aircraft.

So far, the landing process of carrier-based aircraft has become the most dangerous process recognized by the world's aviation community and the navies of various countries.

Because the aircraft carrier is in a state of motion, it will then swing horizontally and longitudinally. In addition, the influence of sea breeze and weather factors, and the length and width of the landing area are very small, only one-tenth of the conventional base runway. If there is a slight deviation in the landing process, the carrier-based aircraft with a flight speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour may directly crash into the aircraft group parked on the takeoff deck, causing a tragic flight accident.

This is just from the perspective of pilot operations, but not other factors such as blocking and breaking, mechanical failure of the fuselage, sudden strong airflow attacks, etc.

The voice of Dai Minmeng echoed in the war room.

Everyone looked solemn and focused on recording information about the landing process of the carrier-based aircraft.

"As we all know, the landing process can be divided into landing under simple meteorological conditions and landing under complex take-off and landing conditions according to the flight time, and it is divided into daytime landing and nighttime landing according to the flight time. The entire process is entirely dominated by single-aircraft landing, and there is no situation of double-aircraft landing or multiple aircraft landing."

As the commander, Dai Minmeng continued to tell, his voice calmly: "In the field of pilot operations, the operation process of the landing process is the opposite of the operation process of the land-based fighter. Comrade Zero, please answer where is the opposite?"

"Report to the head of the report, carrier-based aircraft must accelerate operation, and land-based fighter aircraft must slow down operation."

Zhou Hai stood up again without any pause, responded loudly, giving the opposite of the landing process of carrier-based aircraft and land-based fighter aircraft.

"That's right. Sit down, one accelerates and the other slows down. This is the biggest obstacle to learning the flight path of carrier-based aircraft for those who are familiar with the take-off and landing process of land-based fighter jets."

Dai Minmeng nodded and said, looking at the mid-level Aofei Shiraki, who ranked in the middle of the comprehensive score: "Comrade Shiraki, let me talk about your views on the carrier-based aircraft. From the perspective of the pilot, what is the thing you pay most attention to?"

Zhou Hai's face was natural, she sat down gently, straightened her back, and remained quiet and silent.

After half a month of high-intensity training and learning, and through the valuable knowledge taught through basic theory learning again and again, Zhou Hai's understanding of carrier-based aircraft flight is no longer the original ship flying Xiaobai, and he is no longer familiar with it, and has been promoted to a noble ship flying rookie.

The opposite of land-based fighter jets and carrier-based aircraft landing processes is deceleration and acceleration.

It has to be said that the landing process of a carrier-based aircraft specially named landing is undoubtedly contrary to common sense.

"Reporting to the leader, from the perspective of the pilot, the most important thing is precision!" The Aofei Nori, who was sitting at the end of the trainee team, stood up without hesitation and responded loudly.

“Very good, sit down.”

Dai Minmeng was very satisfied with the answer from the SkyFly Seaweed. He praised it and his tense and serious face calmed down. His eyes turned to everyone and said slowly: "After today's basic theoretical study, I believe that you have a relatively complete basic concept of the overall process of carrier-based aircraft take-off and landing and landing. Remember, the most important thing about carrier-based aircraft landing is the accuracy I have mentioned before. OK, everyone stands up and the theoretical study is temporarily over. Everyone returns to the dormitory, packs up their equipment, and prepares to go to the Qingcheng Nuclear Submarine Base to learn new training subjects."
