Chapter 1019: Thrilling

Chen Rui thinks it’s not difficult. After all, his skills are quite superb, and the operation of the fighter plane is very precise. Moreover, after learning that he needs to refuel in the air yesterday, he practiced on a flight simulator for a long time. Now for him , It seems to be a familiar road.
"The ghost calls the nanny, the ghost calls the nanny." Chen Rui took off later, but the fighter bomber was originally faster than the tanker, so he soon saw the air tanker flying smoothly in front of him.
"Nanny received." There was an echo from the tanker in front.
Although they are the pilots of the Shabbat, they are all trained in the Eagle Nation. They can speak Eagle fluently. Now it is not a problem to communicate in the international language of Eagle.
"At an altitude of 6,000 and a speed of 700, we request an aerial refueling experiment."
"Nanny received it." A voice came from the headset.
Chen Rui looked at the outer side of the wing of the KC-10 aerial tanker in front, and slowly extended an aerial refueling pipe backwards. Behind the pipe, there was a tapered sleeve.
The aerial tanker was flying steadily at an altitude of 6,000 meters, and the flying leopard fighter-bomber behind it began its first aerial refueling attempt.
Chen Rui turned on the switch and saw that the aerial refueling pipe in front of the side was slowly rising, about less than forty centimeters from the fuselage. From him, he had a good view.
"The ghost calls the nanny and is about to refuel in the air."
"Nanny received."
Chen Rui's hand gently pushed the throttle lever, the fighter slowly moved forward, forward, and approached the front tanker little by little.
Suddenly, he felt his nose shake twice and could not help but push the control lever to correct it, but all of a sudden, the nose turned around and rushed towards the tail of the tanker!
"Watch out ghosts!" the radar officer in the back seat shouted.
Chen Rui let go of the accelerator and watched the tanker flew away. The huge outline became smaller, and sweat leaked from his back.
I almost ran into it just now!
Even if it is flying in dense formations in the air, I have never encountered such a situation.
"The wake of that transport plane is very large, we can't approach from the inside, we need to fly from the outside." The radar officer in the rear cabin analyzed.
When an airplane flies in the air, it relies on the airflow. The airflow is different at different positions of the airplane. At the tail of the airplane, there is a terrible turbulence zone. Once it enters, the airplane will lose control.
There was no problem when flying fighter formations in the past. It was because the body of the fighters was small and produced less wake, but now the giant tanker has a large wake area. If you don’t master the trick, it’s very dangerous.
"Yes, let's try it from the outside." Chen Rui said.
Taking a deep breath, an experienced old pilot like Chen Rui was shocked in a cold sweat just now. Now he continues to push the throttle lever, and flies slowly towards the tanker.
This time I approached from the outside, and I was not affected by the turbulence.
One hundred meters, fifty meters, and thirty meters, he was getting closer and closer to the cone. When the cone was getting bigger and bigger in his field of vision, Chen Rui couldn't help but want to scold his mother. .
Damn, what are you moving!
This cone sleeve is connected to the front wing of the aircraft through a hose. Of course, this hose is constantly floating back and forth during flight. The cone sleeve behind it is also constantly shaking, just swaying in the wind. Like a kite.
Chen Rui found that his simulation yesterday was almost useless. During the simulation, there were not so many situations!
Chen Rui gritted his teeth and pushed the operating lever. The 20-ton Flying Leopard fighter continued to fly forward, bit by bit, and then forward.
This is simply walking a tightrope in the air.
The tapered sleeve was constantly dangling in the sky. Chen Rui looked at the opponent only twenty centimeters away from his fuel pipe, and then slowly pushed the throttle stick, up, up!
At this moment, a sudden gust of wind blew the tapered sleeve to the outside, leaving more than ten centimeters away.
The radar officer in the rear cabin could clearly see that the cone sleeve had flown out of his cockpit, and the docking failed.
"I don't believe that I can't connect." Chen Rui became fierce. He rarely said dirty words, and now he couldn't help but curse: "Don't be naughty, wait for I to poke your chrysanthemum!"
Chen Ruisong clicked the throttle and watched the cone sleeve fly in front of him again, and then approached slowly and slowly as before. This time, seeing that it was about to dock with the cone sleeve, it actually faced He flew over and hit the canopy with a snap.
Fortunately, it's softer, and it's okay to hit it once. Chen Rui was already confused when he saw the cone sleeve leaving again. What happened?
I was already very careful, but every time I approached, at the moment of docking, the tapered sleeve would fly away mischievously. In this case, it would never be docked.
This should not be the case. After all, in the West, aerial refueling technology is the most common, and we have our own equipment. Why is the docking unsuccessful?
Is it required to teach the pilots of the Parthian nation? Their Tomcat fighters can also refuel in the air.
After the introduction of the Tomcat fighters in Han, a large number of Shahman pilots were also introduced. Those pilots were being cleaned and put in prison. After they came to Han, they were given freedom. They were very grateful and very grateful. Hardly teach Han pilots.
However, when the war broke out, these pilots who were persecuted in the Sabbath have resolutely returned to the Sabbath. For them, no matter how the government deals with them, they are all the pilots of the Sabbath. Fight for the Parthian nation.
These flight instructors have all received aerial refueling training. They will definitely teach themselves, but they have all gone to the Sabbath country. Besides, should they also teach this kind of thing?
They will, and we will!
Thinking of this, Chen Rui leaned forward again. Why did the first two failures happen?
The first time was the turbulence that entered the tail of the aircraft, and these two times, could it be because the turbulence of the nose of the aircraft disturbed the cone sleeve after getting closer?
How to adjust?
These few times are very slow, very slow, but it doesn't work, so this time, do it yourself quickly?
Yes, just try that!
"Ghost, report the situation."
"The cone is shaking. Two attempts have failed, and I am preparing for the third attempt." Chen Rui shouted through the radio.
Chen Rui knew that the people on the ground were also very anxious.
"Received, ghost, please be careful." A voice came from the ground.
The danger of aerial refueling is self-evident. Chen Rui knows that he is under a lot of pressure, but he must try, he has no choice.
Cone sleeve, I'm here!
