Chapter 356 Competition Rules
After learning about the decision of the pre-competition meeting, the officers and soldiers of our formation were indignant.
When it is beneficial to you, you will belittle my J-15 wildly, which is not good for you. You said that my J-15 is the most advanced fourth-generation and a half-heavy fighter in the world, and there is only a little difference between it and the fifth-generation aircraft.
Even fools can see that this is the data that Americans took out directly in order to gain a numerical advantage in the competition.
Of course, everyone knows that being arrogant and domineering is synonymous with the United States, and being destined to be without bottom lines is the American style of conduct.
But why did our delegates argue without reason?
The United States was not qualified to talk to me from its strength and status as early as thirty years ago. Why would the young and strong officers who were looking forward to making achievements every day compromise at this time?
Thousands of formation officers and soldiers were so excited!
However, as the protagonist, Li Hai and other pilots expressed their calmness and were even eager to try.
They understood the intentions of their superiors.
In this competition, the ranking is secondary. What is really important is to fight with the US aircraft carrier formation through this competition to accumulate experience for possible future wars. Once a war breaks out in the future, it will be a bloody confrontation.
Secondly, we have already learned about the performance of the F-35, and it is not without confidence in one blow.
Finally, the J-15 and F-35 confrontation can provide extremely valuable performance indicators for my country's fifth-generation carrier-based stealth fighter jets, which is incomparable to the title of the champion in the competition.
In the eyes of the world, it is natural for the US team to win the championship. If they don’t win it, no matter who wins the championship, in the eyes of the world, the US naval and air power is on a downward trend. This is unacceptable to the United States, which relies on military strength to maintain world hegemony.
After the pre-war mobilization meeting, the formation officers and soldiers understood the spirit of their superiors, became more and more motivated, and devoted themselves to the pre-competition preparations with the highest standards.
The day before the start of the competition, the organizing committee suddenly notified representatives of various countries to hold an emergency meeting with the theme of "discussing the rules of more practical competitions."
The proposer is a representative of the U.S. Navy.
The participating countries were in an uproar!
Isn't this a naked power?
You should know that in the continuous meetings in the past few days, the competition rules were formulated based on the general principle of "competition for air forces in various countries in the world". During this period, the representatives of the US Navy kept making domineering demands, and everyone endured it. Who would make the world's strongest navy?
No one would have thought that at present, such a competition rule that can be said to be passed by the US Navy with its own power and force will be overthrown again, and it is the US Navy itself!
What is this?
The participating countries, even the smallest and weakest, represent national sovereignty and their status is equal to other countries, including the United States!
However, the fact is that the US Navy has obviously never regarded other countries' navies as equal subjective. They consider themselves global referees and athletes, and they have to decide on their interests and succumb to their strength.
This is a naked hegemony and bullying "starting from strength and status".
The emergency meeting was actually held on the deck of the aircraft carrier No. 2. The Americans actually wanted a cold-dining meal-style meeting, and after the meeting, they had a cold meal on the deck.
This is a naked show of force.
At this meeting, our Navy representative invited Zhu Wei and Li Hai to attend as professional and technical personnel.
It is not difficult to see from the new details proposed by the US side that they target our naval fleet, and the fleets participating in other countries have suffered unanticipated disasters.
After maintenance, the carrier-based fighter wing was rectified and the Sixth Fleet was once again dispatched to become the pillar.
After Li Hai boarded the ship, he immediately realized that the combat effectiveness of the ship had improved. In the previous few confrontations, the strike group with the ship as the core not only did not gain any advantage, but also suffered heavy losses and his morale was greatly reduced.
At this point, the morale of the ship is very high. I don’t know if it is a sequelae of the virus or what incentive policies have been introduced.
Morale is the factor that can't be explained clearly but can directly influence the outcome.
The venue is located in the parking space in front of the island, which can see the takeoff positions of all four steam catapults and the four takeoff runways.
It is obvious that the Americans are doing it intentionally.
They are trying to show their muscles in front of representatives of various countries!
The entire deck is full of aircraft. Except for the venue, the rest of the parking spaces are filled with aircraft. There are fifty fighter jets on the deck, not including helicopters!
Among them, there are 30 F-35s, and the other 20 F/A-18E/F are all from the latest batches, because there are some slight differences in appearance. The most obvious one is that the latest batches have enhanced situational awareness and anti-electronic interference capabilities, which means that there are more antennas on the surface of the fuselage.
As soon as he arrived on the deck, Li Hai's eyes were like the airborne active phased array radar (AESA), scanning everything within his field of view frantically.
He could not compare to his master Li Zhan.
His master Li Zhan has been on the same ship of the USS Unshi and has been eating night porridge. His understanding of this class of nuclear-powered aircraft carrier can be said to be the first in the army.
After all, no pilot has ever been able to destroy or injure more than a dozen enemy aircraft, as well as a Los Angeles-class nuclear submarine and a Burke-class destroyer in one battle.
After Li Hai observed that the entire flight deck, including fighter jets, gave him the first impression of "paste".
Patches are not derogatory terms, but are often synonymous with words such as "long-term", "skilled", and "value".
The whole impression given to Li Hai was that the US Navy aircraft carrier operation had reached the level of "common meals". For them, using aircraft carriers was as simple and necessary as three meals a day, and their personnel were as familiar as if they were at home.
We must face up to such an objective fact.
In addition, Li Hai also saw that at least half of the thirty F-35s placed on the deck were temporarily transferred to participate in the multinational naval air force competition, and the number of the subordinate troops was proof.
In other words, the US Navy made up its mind to show off its "martial skills" in the competition for air power in multiple countries, and whether it was cheering up the hard-working actor Wujun or shocking other countries, its purpose was no longer simple.
A purely academic multinational naval power competition made the Americans forcefully painted political colors, and even its hardcore ally, the British Navy could not stand it.
The long square table is the meeting site. The US Navy representatives sat on the side of the ship island, while the Chinese Navy representatives sat on the opposite side, facing the island and facing the bow of the ship, and the two long sides of the long square table sat on the naval representatives of other countries according to their strength.
The host is France, and the seats should be arranged by France, but the current seats are obviously arranged by the United States without authorization, which is very meaningful to China.
Chapter completed!
