When the door was opened, a young pilot saw Nathan through the crack of the door, and he was immediately excited: "Major Nathan, you are my idol, first sign me, the one who signed MCA first name."
It’s been a long time since the film was filmed, but the film will not grow old, it will only continue to add more Tomcat fans, and now Clive is an absolute Tomcat fan.
"You came to me, did you sign it?" Nathan asked.
"No, this is just a small request of mine." Clive said: "I also brought a request from our navy. At your convenience, go to our navy as a guest. This is an invitation."
Clive was at the door and handed the navy invitation.
At this moment, a smiling woman suddenly appeared behind her. This woman put her arms around Nathan’s waist and looked at this invitation together: "Great, we originally decided to go to Europe after the trip here. Now, it's time to go to the UK on holiday!"
When he saw this woman, Clive was taken aback: "Excuse me, excuse me, um, should I come back another day?"
Clive was embarrassed.
Nathan ignored him, turned his head and said to Emily: "Emily, stop making trouble. I'm done with things here. It's time for me to return to the aircraft carrier. I haven't received training for so long, and my skills are rusty."
Hearing this, Emily pursed her lips immediately: "Sure enough, you men have no good things, and you have promised me. As a result, I told you the secret, and you regretted it."
Emily has told Nathan about Andre, and now that Nathan is so rebellious, she is also very angry.
"That, Major Nathan, we know that you are a person who loves flying, but if you go to our UK, there are also aircraft carriers that can fly. We can invite you to test drive our fighters, especially our vertical take-off and landing fighters. You must have never flown."
To be honest, Nathan never flew, but this does not mean that he is interested. In fact, he is not interested in Sea Harrier.
It is amazing to brag about vertical take-off and landing as a technology. In fact, this completely violates the law of technological development. Needless to say, now, even in later generations, the F-35 has become a general service for the three services. People laugh big teeth, the vertical take-off and landing model is also constantly facing various problems.
The abnormal engines of later generations won't work, let alone now.
However, Nathan was embarrassed to refuse, especially since they were so sincere, and Emily, who just had sex, and then she was going to hang herself ruthlessly
So Nathan could only nod his head.
"Well, then I'll go there. By the way, come in and talk."
Can't let this guest stay at the door forever
Nathan let in, the two sat down, Emily went to make coffee like a hostess, and the two began to talk.
"Why are you here?" Nathan asked.
"Learning that we have acquired a MiG-25, many people in our country are itchy. The airlines sent a few engineers, and the air force and navy sent a few pilots, so they came here to learn." Clay The husband said: "I'm here to make soy sauce."
The U.S. agreed to the British sending someone to come. However, regarding the test flight, only one of the most experienced pilots was allowed to do the test flight. Therefore, Clive did not have much arrangement when he came here. However, it would be a lifetime to meet with Nathan. Glory.
Although he didn't know that Nathan had just blinded a Soviet pilot with his headlights, but he at least knew that Nathan was very powerful in the Far East confrontation some time ago, and the Tomcat was also shining brightly in the confrontation.
Now, Lieutenant Clive looked at Nathan with admiration, which was entirely from the eyes of a hero who saw his admiration.
"What type of aircraft are you flying now?" As a pilot, of course you have to talk about your own aircraft. If you change to another country, it involves leaks, but for British pilots, it doesn't matter.
"I'm flying ghosts now." Lieutenant Clive said, "Our own ghosts."
Britain and the United States are good enough to wear a pair of trousers, so when Britain found that it lacked advanced fighters, it immediately brought in American fighters.
However, the British were not satisfied with the J-79 engine used by the ghosts, thinking that its performance was too low. Therefore, the British imported ghosts were replaced with their own Spey engines.
Although this caused the rear fuselage of the British ghosts to become wider and the maximum speed decreased, the performance improvement brought by the replacement of turbofans with turbojets was quite obvious.
It can be said that the ghosts in Britain are the most successful ghosts.
Without the Spey engine, it would be impossible for my British ghosts to board the ship. After all, the British aircraft carrier is short and the catapult performance is not enough. Only the powerful performance given by the Spey engine can make it take off from the narrow deck of the aircraft carrier.
When I heard Lieutenant Clive say this, Nathan realized that some thought in his heart began to rise again.
Tomcat's heart disease.
The TF30 engine used by the Tomcat fighter must be carefully served. It will surge if it is not suitable. However, the engine that replaces it has not appeared for a long time. According to the progress in history, it may be ten years later. Nathan does not want to wait. so long.
And this time I go to the UK, can I take a look at the Spey engine, the latest modification, if it is installed on the Tomcat fighter, it will bring an improvement to the performance of the entire fighter!
Well, it was just a perfunctory trip to the UK, but now, it seems that the goal has been found, and a trip to the UK has become imperative.
"The ghost with Spey is a good plane, it's a pity," Nathan said, "It's really a pity that the Eagle retired."
If there is a government that dislikes its own army and has to weaken its own country's army, then the Labor Party government is definitely one of them.
There were not many aircraft carriers capable of operating fixed-wing aircraft in the UK. Although the Eagle was built during World War II, it was still in good condition. As a result, because the Labor government wanted to eliminate all aircraft carriers in its own country, it was forced to Retired in 1972.
This aircraft carrier was originally in the same year and in much better condition than the Royal Ark. Unfortunately, it was put on a dead end by a short-sighted politician, and it should be sold and demolished in two years.
As for the Royal Ark, it escaped a catastrophe, and is still in service, starting to operate advanced ghost fighters. However, according to the historical process, the death of the Royal Ark is also coming.
It is embarrassing, only a powerful country can have a powerful navy. (End of this chapter)
