At the Zhuhai Air Show that ended not long ago, my country's latest generation of high stealth fighter jets - " J-20", attracted the attention of the whole world, which also marks that my country's fighter jets have become one of the world's leading players and become the third country to independently develop fifth-generation fighter jets after the United States and Russia.
I remember someone said: There is no such thing as peace of mind, but someone is carrying the burden for you. Although we now have these excellent fighter jets that protect the blue sky of our motherland, we must also remember those heroes who sacrificed their precious lives for the territorial integrity of our motherland.
Today, let us enter the air battlefield of the Chinese War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression during the Second World War period and pay our highest respect to that generation of air force heroes.
During World War II, people from all walks of life from all over the country generously donated money and materials, and purchased the most advanced fighter jets in the world for the Chinese Air Force at that time. This is the prototype of the Chinese Air Force. It is worth mentioning that even the "mother of the nation" at that time, Soong Ching Ling, personally donated a fighter jet. It is not difficult to see that during those difficult years, the whole country had the same determination to resist aggression.
929, Chiang Kai-shek set up an aviation flight in Nanjing Central Military Academy , training the first generation of pilots for the Chinese Air Force.
1937, the Battle of Shanghu broke out, and the development plan of the Chinese Air Force was interrupted. Although the Air Force had 346 military aircraft at that time, only about 200 could actually be put into the battlefield.
At that time, the main fighter jets of my country's air force were the "Hawk" and the Iranian 15 and Iranian 16 fighter jets , which were baptized by the artillery fire of , and the two-wing structure aircraft were obviously no longer adapted to the rhythm of World War II, and their performance was far behind that of the main fighter jets of other countries in the world.
In comparison, Japan has a complete military-industry industry chain, so that Japan had more than 2,000 fighter jets at the outbreak of the war, and many of them were the more advanced Type 97 single-wing fighter jets at the time. The backwardness of
equipment does not mean incompetence or weakness. It was during the Battle of Shanghai that the Chinese Air Force once took the initiative to bomb Japan's ammunition depot, , docks, command centers and railways, causing certain resistance to the Japanese army's invasion.
The angry Japanese army vowed to completely eliminate the Chinese Air Force, and they sent fighter planes stationed in Taipei to participate in the battle. Faced with the overwhelming advantage of the Japanese Air Force, the Chinese Air Force was fearless. The Fourth Air Force Battalion, led by Captain Gao Zhihang, responded flexibly and achieved brilliant results in shooting down three Japanese fighter jets.
The courage shown by the Chinese Air Force in air combat is rare in the world.
In an air battle, the camera on the Japanese bomber recorded such a precious image. The Japanese bomber formed a formation to advance towards the bombing target under the escort of the fighter . At this time, three Chinese Air Force fighters attacked them head-on, and the Japanese escort fighter jets immediately went to fight. They quickly shot down two aggressive Chinese fighter jets with their superior maneuverability, and the remaining fighter jets were also dragged with rolling black smoke on their tails, trying to maintain their flight posture.
Just when the Japanese army believed that the crisis had been lifted, the "tenacious" Chinese fighter jet increased its horsepower with the roar of the engine to charge towards the bomber. This suicide attack made all the viewers frightened.
Later, we sorted out the notes of a teacher at the Central Aviation School, and we saw a sentence like this: "My students are all dead in battle. Now, it is my teacher's turn to teach them the last lesson."
Until today, I believe no one is unmoved by this passage. The air force of our motherland is relying on this brave and fearless spirit of not being afraid of sacrifice, and sticks to the motherland's airspace until the last moment of his life.
Reviewing the first generation of air force heroes, what we see is a series of regrettable and respectful scenes. They are so young and so determined...
Chen Huaimin, a rich child, fought against five in an air battle, and finally drove a fighter jet with thick smoke and died together with the enemy plane. That year, Chen Huaimin was only 22 years old, and he became the first person to collide with enemy aircraft in the history of world air combat.
Shen Chonghui, Tsinghua University top student, joined the Air Force at the age of 21. During the war, his fighter plane was unable to return due to severe damage, but he did not choose to escape, but resolutely crashed into the Japanese warship at the age of 25.
Yan Haiwen, after the plane was hit, parachuted , landed on the ground and faced the Japanese army that was siegeing madly. He fought back with his pistol he wore until the last bullet was left in the pistol. He shouted at the Japanese army: "China will not have a captured air force." Then he committed suicide by drinking and drinking. He was only 21 years old at the time.
Huang Changlin, a lone hero, flew fighters alone against 27 Japanese fighter jets. He knew he had gone but never returned, he resolutely took off to meet the enemy.
Of course, in addition to these anti-Japanese war martyrs who have been famous, there are many Air Force heroes who died on the front line like them who did not even leave their names.
At the gate of their school, people saw a stone tablet, which read: "Our body, plane and bomb, should die together with the enemy's warship positions."
Dare to ask the world's aviation school, who can have such a spirit? Only the Chinese people, the country is in trouble, can show their true nature!
The wheel of history keeps moving forward. We who enjoy today's beautiful life must not forget the passionate blood shed by those martyrs to protect the land of the motherland.
There is a saying that goes very well. We are not qualified to forgive the invaders for our ancestors. We can only comfort the heroes by becoming pillars of the motherland.
