Finally, there is the issue of training. Both the Air Force and the Army are poorly prepared for organized transportation tasks. Naturally, there is no training. As a result, the vehicle has frequent problems during the loading process. There are even several times due to tension between the dispatcher and the driver. , almost causing an accident.
As a last resort, Xiaoman could only select 20 top pilots, and cooperate with 10 experienced veteran non-commissioned officers in the transportation force. Only then was he able to fill up one plane after another.
Your experience has also reminded the Air Force and Army that regular training on this subject needs to be carried out in the future. After all, the headquarters can tolerate the first time but will never tolerate the second time.
In any case, the army values ????soldiers and quickness. It is unjustifiable to delay for more than ten hours to figure it out. Fortunately, a lot of valuable experience was learned from this exercise. The battalion commanded by Xiaoman was the first to eat crabs. It can be considered that it has played a great role.
Of course, in addition to practicing loading and summarizing experience, another important purpose of the Air Force taking out all the transport aircraft is the so-called "display". Because of this, early the next morning, the media who were notified were allowed to enter the base. Take the shot.
¡°Then these well-informed media reporters saw a shocking scene that they will never forget.
I saw 40 large and medium-sized transport aircraft lined up on the runway of the airport, completing all preparations before taking off in the posture of an elephant strolling. When the base tower issued the instruction to take off, starting from the Yun-17, every three minutes A transport plane took off, and soon 40 transport planes formed six formations, escorted by several Su-27 fighter jets and flew rapidly towards the northwest desert.
At ten minutes at noon, as the domestic news in the midday news column of CCTV was about to end, a news briefing of less than 20 seconds was inserted, titled "Our Army Implemented the First Formation Strategic Airlift". The press release was quite satisfactory, with nothing outstanding about it, but However, the picture uses a long lens to vividly show the elephant strolling posture of 40 large and medium-sized transport aircraft.
Although it only lasts for 20 seconds, it completely releases the sense of oppression and tension before the take-off of a large and medium-sized transport aircraft. It can be said to be full of blockbuster feeling, not to mention that it can make people have goosebumps all over their body, but it is also It will be shocking.
Soon this 20-second video was intercepted by a technology expert and posted on an Internet forum, which immediately aroused discussions among many netizens.
The network of senior military fans is naturally abuzz. For so many years, all I have read in newspapers and magazines are foreign transport aircraft. Although domestic transport aircraft have also appeared in magazines, the descriptions are not clear or there are only one or two vague pictures, even comparisons. There are no specific parameters, which makes military fans scratch their heads.
Although the 20-second picture is now short, it shows all the main transport aircraft of the Air Force. This is tantamount to a festive feast for military fans.
So many people expressed their excitement and joy in the forum, and some even called today the first year of domestic strategic airlift.
As for the so-called support aircraft developed based on these types of transport aircraft, there are endless rational posts. Some people have even published tens of thousands of words for this purpose, just to illustrate the huge value of these types of aircraft to the country.
Some people are celebrating, and of course there are others who are arguing or even opposing the view. Either they say that the 20 seconds of footage in the news is fake, or they think that these aircraft cannot all be purely domestic. As for those who go beyond the equipment itself and interpret the waste of people and money from a humanistic perspective, exist.
As the saying goes, it is enough to say nothing without speculation. Military fans and naysayers are both holding keyboards. Who is afraid of whom when looking at the screen?
So a series of fights and scoldings became extremely intense as soon as the 20-second video appeared on the Internet, and continued for several days.
However, those negative remarks were severely criticized by the majority of military fans in China, but they were favored by many overseas media. The reason is very simple. Many overseas media simply do not believe that China has such strength and ability to operate a one-time establishment strategy. air transport.
So they selectively believe the words of those who say naysayers, and exaggerate them by calling them "informed people" or "anonymous people."
Of course, there are those who are selectively blind, and naturally there are those who are rational. They call for attention to this very representative strategic airlift exercise. However, although the words are beautifully said, in the end, it feels that China is still just a primary school student in terms of strategic airlift. , there is still a long way to go before it can truly pose a threat.
Generally speaking, overseas media still have a condescending attitude and believe that this strategic airlift exercise is not as shocking as shown in the news footage.
What is intriguing is that the Russian media this time did not give a neutral or even complimentary evaluation of the domestic strategic airlift drill as in the past. Instead, like many Western media, they made extremely profound criticisms.Comment.
It is even more intense and bold than the Western media in some terms.
One of the analysis articles even criticized several transport aircraft produced by China Tengfei starting from the Y-17 as useless. At the end of the day, the topic changed and the Il-76md strategic transport aircraft was called the domestic air force. Among the few in this strategic air transport exercise There are many highlights, and then they shamelessly talk about the huge actual combat value of the IL-76md strategic transport aircraft and the powerful performance of subsequent improved models.
There are many articles like this. Rather than being in-depth analysis, it is more appropriate to say that they are disguised advertisements.
In addition to having a strong impact on the military struggle surrounding the southeastern coast, this domestic strategic airlift exercise has the greatest impact on Russia. There is no way, if domestic military transport aircraft can be self-sufficient, then there are so many second-hand Il- 76 What to do?
Because of this, in addition to criticizing, the Russian media also sent arms sales representatives to inform the country that the price of the Russian-made IL-76md transport aircraft can be reduced by 20% based on the previous quotation.
That¡¯s not all. The subsequent more advanced Il-76 improved models can also be sold to domestic customers first, and the price will also be greatly discounted.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? A few years ago, when the country was seeking to purchase Il-76, it was asking for prices all the time, and I wanted to hold on to the domestic market and shout for low prices and big promotions.
There is no way, no matter how happy the domestic naysayers are, Russia's arms manufacturers know very well that with China's style of standing aside as long as it has what it has, others have, the IL-76 may really be in disgrace. .
If things were cool a few years ago, they would be cool. The problem is that Russian arms dealers have seen the gap in domestic strategic transport aircraft. In recent years, they have invested heavily in refurbishing related production lines, and they are waiting for a large number of second-hand Il-76 modification orders. Falling like snowflakes.
As a result, China¡¯s own medium and large military transport aircraft have become a reality. The money invested over the years is about to be wasted. One can imagine the mood of the Russian arms dealers.
I can no longer hold on to the shelf, so I can only cry and sell it. After all, it is better to recover a little loss than to lose all my underwear without making a penny.
Seeing the situation of the transport aircraft manufacturer, other Russian arms manufacturers were also unable to sit still. There was no way, no one could handle this kind of gray rhinoceros, so they teamed up to authorize the Russian Attach¨¦ in China through the government, and immediately understood Real-time updates of domestic related equipment.
The best entry point to understand this aspect is the exercise, so after some operations by the Russian Military Attach¨¦ in China, as a military observer, he obtained the qualification to go to the northwest desert to observe the exercise.
Of course, Xiaoman, who was sitting on the plane, did not know all this. He only knew that when the plane landed, a fierce battle was waiting for him!
