v2 Chapter 946: A pilot more precious than a fighter pla

Everyone in the military has turned their attention to Lei Tiantang. Now they don’t care about the flight test data of those fighters. Compared with the fighter test flight data that can be checked at any time, they are obviously more concerned about the training of fighter pilots. !

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, a fighter jet is worth tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of dollars, which is staggeringly expensive. This is because many countries in the world are still using those cheap second-generation fighters. Or it can be seen that most countries use third-generation fighters, and replacing more advanced fighters is a huge burden for a country.

However, anyone who has participated in the rigorous selection of pilots and even frequent flight training understands that from the military's point of view, the value of a qualified pilot is much higher than the price of a fighter jet, and a highly skilled pilot is worth It is absolutely not too much to describe as "priceless treasure"!

This is why Zhang Shanhu was able to discover this detail so quickly, and it is also the reason why people in the military are so concerned about this issue now.

Compared to fighters with clearly marked prices, most people may not have a clear understanding of the value of pilots. Pilots in different countries in the world have different skills and values.

Take the old American Air Force fighters and pilots as an example. As we all know, the U.S. military’s fighters are the most expensive and the level of its pilots is relatively high. For example, the price of an old American F-22 stealth fighter is about 120 million US dollars. A qualified fighter pilot of the U.S. Air Force must basically complete about 2,000 hours of flight training.

According to our known fighter flight cost, the cost of one-hour flight training for F-15 fighters is more than 40,000 US dollars. It is easy to calculate that the cost of flight training alone for a US military pilot from service to preliminary qualification is as high as Around 60 million US dollars.

And these expenses are only for fighter pilot training. A qualified pilot has other expenses such as clothing, food, housing, salary, trainer aircraft, simulation training, medical services, etc., and most importantly, the subsequent expenses of becoming a qualified fighter pilot. .

In the old U.S. Air Force, fighter pilots who are officially listed must perform at least more than 200 hours of flight training every year to maintain their technical status.

If you are an ace pilot, then this flight time may be longer. Through the display of the above objective data, we can easily calculate the face value of a fighter pilot. Taking the US military qualified pilots to participate in training and flying for 15 years as an example, a total of about 120 million dollars or more will be required.

If you add other supporting expenses such as living and medical salary, it can exceed 150 million US dollars. Many people will say that it is impossible at this time. Even if our country spends about 2.4 billion yuan to train a mature pilot, it is equivalent to 4 About 100 million US dollars.

And these values ​​are just the cost of training a pilot. In fact, it is impossible to use money to measure the value of pilots. We all know that the military strength of a country, whether it is the army, navy, or air force, is of inestimable value to the army.

The development and test flight of fighter jets and the improvement and upgrading of equipment require the assistance of fighter pilots with sufficient experience. Without their test flights and suggestions, even the best weapons and equipment would not be combatable.

Some people will say that drones do not have pilots, and their combat effectiveness is not weak. It seems reasonable, but if it is operated by people without fighter jet experience, the combat effectiveness of drones will not be reflected at all. The drone control experience is also based on the experience of countless drone deployments, test flights, attacks, and even crashes.

In general, the loss of a fighter jet can be replaced in the shortest time to make up for it, and the loss of a mature and qualified pilot cannot be made up for much.

Looking back at wars in military history, it is not difficult to see that in terms of weapons and equipment in wars, various military powers can make endless supply of supplements, but they are always unable to make ends meet in personnel training.

Without personnel control, all advanced weapons and equipment will become scrap. If you lose a qualified pilot, no matter how many fighter jets are in the air, they are also live targets.

In the latter part of the Pacific War of World War II, the air superiority of the eight-ga country gradually lost. The real reason is not that they lack fighter jets, but that most of the experienced pilots have basically died in battle.

The fighter novices trained in the later stage were sent to the battlefield only when they took off and landed. They drove a zero fighter with excellent performance in the air and were nicknamed the "air turkey" by the old US Air Force pilots, which means they would be slaughtered.

It is said that in the air combat of the latter part of the Pacific War, the highest record of a U.S. fighter jet's damage to a fighter from the Eight-Ga country was 19:1. Such a big gap is not the difference in fighter performance, but the difference in pilot experience and technology. From this point of view, the value of pilots is far from being measured by money.

If the training expenses of pilots can be reduced and the technical level of the pilots can be greatly improved, it will have a very significant impact on the improvement of the military's combat effectiveness, so the military will stare at Lei Tiantang with eyesight.

"Hey! That's right! Just as you think, our company does have a secret weapon for training pilots! It's General Zhang, your eyes are really sharp! And your mind is turning very fast!

I can actually see their technical level from such a small projection~lightnovelpub.net~ At the same time, we can also analyze from it that our company has the means to train pilots. I don’t think I can admire it. It seems we The company has another secret weapon about to be exposed! "Lei Tiantang said with a smile.

"What are you selling? Mr. Lei! Quickly introduce us!" Zhang Shanhu urged with his eyes widened.

"Well, it's actually simple to say, that is, our aircraft company's laboratory has specially designed a flight simulation system, which can increase the reality of simulated flight to 95% of real flight!

We can not only simulate the gravitational acceleration system, let the pilot experience almost the same gravitational acceleration and weightlessness as the real flight during the simulated flight, but also allow the pilot to experience all kinds of extreme weather and various energy like driving a real airplane. Unexpected circumstances that caused a plane crash.

Let Zhao Li introduce the specific situation to you. I don’t know much about this aspect. Anyway, the pilots you see have been flying these fighters for thousands of hours on the flight simulation system. That's why they can perform so well now, and my skill level is also trained in this way! "Lei Tiantang smiled and gave a simple explanation.
