Chapter 696: The Astronaut Battalion

On the roll.

Along with the roar of the high-speed airflow, the two warplanes rapidly swept past each other, traveling back and forth over the tumbling clouds, chasing each other.

Bite the shit out of the previous plane. The femoral, sight had locked the tail flame of the forward fighter, and Nie Yun, who held the joystick, took a deep breath and pressed the launch button on his thumb.

Soon, the ground drill command post was heard in the ear.

“Hit the target. ”

“Prepare for the next subject exercise. ”

We won!

Relaxed, Niehyun reached out and loosened the edge of the loose helmet, calmly answering.

“Copy that.”

Naturally, it is not possible to mount live ammunition in the usual confrontation exercises, replacing it with photoelectric emission and reception devices mounted on two aircraft. After targeting each other, the beam is emitted as a substitute for the missile. If the target is hit, the optoelectronic receiving device on the target aircraft receives a signal, the target is declared hit by the drill command post, and the aircraft “shot down” is withdrawn from the drill.

Of course, the confrontation drill is just one part of the entire drill, and naturally it will not be possible to return until the end of the entire drill.

After the Exercise Command announced the shooting down of the previous aircraft, the two fighters “turned enemies into friends” and replaced the formation of the flight to the designated airspace in preparation for the next subject exercise.

Just as Nie Yunmao was preparing to start his next practice subject, the sound of the drill command center suddenly appeared in his ear.

“At the end of the exercise, return immediately. ”

Exercise over?

Nie Yun stunned.

Surprisingly, he replied.

“Copy that. Exercise over. Returning. ”

Finally, looking at the blue sky, Nie Yun raised his right hand and put his thumb up against his comrades in the cabin next to him. Immediately thereafter, he swings the joystick, operates the J-20 and returns in the direction of the air base.

……

Along with the loud airflow, the silver-grey fighter steadily touched the runway after a brief jitter. After a brief glide, the reduction umbrella ejected backwards, slowly pausing with the fighter jet that was gliding on the runway.

Ground crew held up and the cockpit slowly opened.

After handing over the pilot's helmet to the ground crew, Nie Yun followed the footsteps of the test flight captain and walked to the chief to stand still and perform a military ceremony.

The serious-looking officer returned to a military ceremony and then threw his gaze at Minister Qin standing next to him.

“This is Nie Yun, J20 test pilot, let's try the Ace of the Flying Battalion. ”

He retracted his gaze from the J20 not far away, and Minister Qin nodded slowly at the pilot.

“Comrade Nie Yun, hard work in training. ”

Neiyun replied neatly: “No hard work, this amount of training is very common for our test fleet. ”

Looking at the angry young man in front of him, Minister Qin nodded in praise of the location.

After a moment of pause, he changed his serious expression and said.

“We in the Air Force Equipment Department have a key task ahead of us, requiring two good pilots. He recommended you to me after I explained the situation to Commander Sun. Now I need to ask your opinion, go or not, all you have to do is answer my question. ”

Air Force Equipment?

Is it testing something new?

With this in mind, Nie Yun's mind suddenly got hot.

“I go wherever Division needs me. ”

Minister Qin smiled: “Have you thought about it? Don't even ask what the mission is? ”

This kind of confidential stuff, even if asked, you can't say it...

With this in mind, Nie Yun's expression remained unchanged and answered vigorously.

“Think about it! ”

Minister Qin nodded.

“Okay.”

“From now on, your composition will shift from the test flight battalion to the astronaut battalion. ”

……

Astronaut Battalion?!

The moment I heard this, Niehuenton looked at me silly.

……

It is impossible to say not to be disappointed.

Neiyun never thought that the Air Force Equipment Department would assign him to the astronaut battalion. The so-called mission was to test a space shuttle made by a private enterprise that cooperated with the defence unit, the so-called Xiangrui.

Although the astronaut battalion is no worse, and all the elites in the world can get in, thinking that they can no longer drive -20, climbing over that mysterious blue sky, somewhat lost his mind.

However, obeying orders is a military vocation, lost and lost, but there is nothing to complain about.

To think of it, he temporarily set aside his mind and cast his gaze at the young man standing opposite him.

Is this the legendary Professor Lu?

Apart from being... a little handsome, it doesn't seem like anything special.

Just as the two pilots weighed the landing craft in secret, the boat with a piece of information in its hand was also watching them carefully.

Of course, his focus was not on the appearance of the two, but on whether they possessed the basic qualities to become a qualified astronaut.

[Nie Yun, Male, Age 32, Driver Type J-10, J-20…]

[Nieh, Female, Age 29, Driver Type Bombing 6, Yun-20, Yun-8...]

He temporarily removed his sight from the file in his hand and the ark looked at the two men and asked them a question.

“Are you brothers and sisters? ”

The two replied in one voice: "Yes. ”

Out of curiosity, the ark said, "How did you choose it? ”

The woman with the short, clean hair answered very simply, “The chief asked if I wanted to fly higher, and I said yes, he let me. ”

Although the answer is no trouble, I don't know why the Ark always feels a bit of a laugh.

She coughed gently and the ark continued to look at Nie Yun.

“And you? ”

Nie Yun replied briefly: "Shou. Long orders.”

What could be seen from the deity there, the ark nodded.

Returning his gaze to the file in his hand, he turned the next page and said casually.

“Although the Cheung Swe is not a fighter or a bomber, I assure you that it will be more interesting to fly than the latter, and… it will be of greater significance than the latter. I assure you there will be many envious of you, and your comrades will see you as their pride, so whatever you think, it is enough to do as I say. ”

Honestly, if it wasn't for NASA, Director Li from the Bureau of Science and Technology would even call him at midnight to ask him what he really thinks. The Ark still wants to be the pilot for the first flight, and with his improved physical fitness, he may not be worse than the average pilot.

Nevertheless, if you don't agree, forget it.

When technology is mature and safe, there is no need to rob this first time.

I looked at the information in my hand from beginning to end, and the ark cleared my voice and looked at both of them to continue asking.

“What do you know about the shuttle? ”

Nie Yun: "An aircraft that can travel to and from outer space and the atmosphere. ”

Nieh reacted a little slowly and hesitated. “My opinion is the same as mine. ”

The ark laughed a little bit down: “That's right, but that's the only thing that doesn't sum up all the features of the shuttle. Before boarding the shuttle, I want you to have a full understanding of it. ”

“Over the next three months, you will be taught exactly what our shuttle is, how to operate it and, most importantly, how to save yourself in the event of an accident. ”

“The task is heavy and only lasts three months, and I hope you will do your utmost. ”

The two pilots stood upright and responded neatly.

“Yes!”
