The first thousand and twenty-three chapters of the tenth project first flight

The only ones who can confront Gorbachev are these old guys. However, the key problem with these old guys is that they are too old, and their lives are few years away.

Moreover, although Gromyko died in 89 in the later world, Qusay felt that Gromyko's current momentum was not very good.

Gromyko himself didn't know that his healthy body had started to go wrong since he participated in the first-line handling of the Chernobyl accident. Gorbachev trusted him to handle the nuclear accident. , actually has a deeper purpose.

At the beginning, it was mainly Gromyko, Ustinov, Chebrikov and Ligachev who helped Gorbachev to the position of general secretary.

Among them, Ustinov, the most important, had passed away a few years ago. The death of this powerful figure in the military gave Gorbachev a lot of space, allowing him to keep conducting personnel affairs in the military. Change, even with the help of that small plane, successfully suppressed the military personnel who did not obey him.Gromyko and Chebrikov have now stepped down from their high positions, and Gromyko's days are numbered. Ligachev was once Gorbachev's most important comrade-in-arms. Expressed strong dissatisfaction with Gorbachev's policies.And Gorbachev also began to exclude Ligachev.

After several years in power, Gorbachev's wings have been full-fledged, and no one can stop him head-on.

The elders were extremely dissatisfied with Gorbachev's policies, and they started their own plan with the help of Iraqi funds.

After returning from the Caspian Sea, Qusay continued to be busy. Taking advantage of the current opportunity, a series of plans for the joint currency of the Arab countries needed to be deployed.

...... Great Eastern country, Chengdu Aircraft Company.

History will remember today, August 1988, 8.

A plane with a strange shape was slowly pulled out of the factory building by a low tractor. Its aerodynamic layout is different from all the fighters of the eastern powers. It has no tail, and the large wings almost occupy the body. In the rear part of the aircraft, there is also a small canard in the front, and the big mouth under the belly shows that it uses the belly air intake method.

There are more than a dozen people sitting on the tractor. They are all the developers of this aircraft. This time, they will release their pride for the first time.

And at the back of this plane, there was also a person on foot. He was very energetic at the moment, and when he walked, he felt the wind under his feet, and he was full of confidence.

This person is the chief designer of this aircraft, Chief Engineer Song.He insisted on walking and followed the plane until he reached the take-off line.

Today is a great day for flying.Their child, the first aircraft of Project [-], ushered in the moment of its first flight.

Project No. 80 has been under development since the early 70s, and after that, the project was formally approved and comprehensive development began.And if we talk about technical reserves, we can see from the J-611 project in the [-]s that the [-] Institute has been fighting for it for nearly ten years.

Now, the first prototype of the No. [-] project is about to undergo a test flight, which is already a miracle in the history of military aircraft of the Eastern power.

In later generations, the No. 80 project developed slowly. Although it was also started in the 98s, it faced the risk of being dismounted several times. It did not start test flight until 04. It was equipped with troops in [-]. The bitterness and suffering in the middle are only for those who study it. We know that when this fighter plane first flew, Engineer Song, the chief designer, was already gray-haired.

If one generation is developed and one generation is equipped, it will be one generation behind.When the J-[-] was flying in the blue sky, the fourth-generation aircraft had already entered service abroad.

The development of the No. [-] project needs to overcome many technical problems, such as three-axis static instability control, wing-body fusion, high-thrust turbofan engine, four-degree redundant fly-by-wire, integrated avionics and other third-generation fighter technologies.

In this regard, due to the sufficient pre-research of the 611 Institute, the aerodynamic shape has already undergone repeated wind tunnel tests during the J-[-], and the aerodynamic aspects of the No. [-] project are basically complete, and the rest is in the process of test flight. It's just a gradual modification.

However, high-thrust turbofan engines and integrated avionics are their weaknesses. The engine is the heart of the aircraft. In later generations, it was because of the heart problem that the overall development progress of the fighter was involved. The -27 fighter jet has only achieved the flight of the J-31 from the AL-[-] engine, which has delayed the progress for many years.

Now, with the investment of Iraqi funds, the turbofan six engine has completed the development of the entire model, passed the 250-hour durability test, and has become a mature engine. The first flight of the No. [-] project is equipped with this kind of engine.

The thrust-to-weight ratio of this engine is currently only six, but a new improvement plan has also been launched. With the efforts of the Liming Engine Research Institute, the thrust-to-weight ratio of this engine will be further increased, and finally reach eight, reaching the world's advanced engine. ranks.

Moreover, the derived gas turbine will also be a suitable power source for warships.

On the other hand, the integrated avionics system has also achieved an important technological breakthrough with the participation of Iraq. This kind of avionics equipment has been adopted on the JH-[-], and the No. [-] project is naturally doing its part.

Chengfei is mainly engaged in the development of the fly-by-wire system. On the basis of a trainer aircraft, they have carried out the development of a multi-axis variable stabilizer and accumulated a lot of experience. This system of the No. [-] project has also been developed. Mature.

During the entire development process of the military aircraft, with the injection of funds and technology from Iraq, especially Iraq allowed Chengfei's engineers to study the Mirage 4000, which also has a canard layout, Chengfei gained a lot of experience.

The development of a fighter depends on how well the technology reserves are. Any lack of key technology will greatly delay the progress of fighter development. In this regard, the most successful model is the United States.

1969年12月23rì，美国空军选择麦道作为F-15主承包商。1970年1月1rì开始签订合同，F-15才进入全尺寸发展阶段，但是，1972年7月27rì，F-15就进行了首次试飞。1974年，首架量产机交付美国空军使用。

In January 1972, the U.S. Air Force formally proposed a light fighter development plan, selected two programs of General Dynamics' 1 and Northrop's P-401, and signed a contract to ask the two companies to manufacture two prototypes each. Run a test flight competition.The first YF-600 prototype left the factory in December 16 and made its first test flight in February 73.In the end, the aircraft of General Motors won. The experimental model named F-12 made its first flight in December 74 and was delivered to the US Air Force at the end of 2.

It took less than 2 years from the proposal of the plan to the first flight of the first prototype, and only 6 years from the time it was delivered to the US Air Force.This is a fairly fast development progress. At the same time, the Su-27 project was established in 69, the first flight was made in 77, and it took nearly 85 years to equip the troops in 15.In order to catch up with the F-15, the Sukhoi Design Bureau has made arduous efforts.

In later generations, the J-20, which finally sharpened its sword [-] years ago, is now nearly ten years ahead of schedule, because the reserves of various technologies are already sufficient.

The gentle autumn wind blows the empty runway, and the command center and control tower of the entire airport are full of people. This time, the leaders of the national ministries and commissions, the aviation industry department and the army, and thousands of scientific researchers who participated in the development, all Gathering here, the scene is even bigger than when the JH-[-] was flying.

After all, in the sky, the air superiority fighters that seize the mission of air supremacy are the kingly way. At present, the only air superiority fighters that the eastern powers can use are the Shenyang Aircraft Factory's J-[-], which was developed to intercept Soviet bombers. The Air Force is very dissatisfied with its air combat performance.The Super Seven fighter developed by Chengfei Company with its own funds is more suitable for the needs of future air combat.It's just that it still inevitably brings the disadvantages of the J-[-], such as short blanking time, small range, and the small size of the airframe also limits the room for improvement.

And this No. [-] fighter will be their main aircraft to seize air supremacy in the future!

Today, this aircraft is about to usher in the moment of its first flight.

On the take-off line, everyone's eyes are on here.As the chief test pilot, Lei Qiang, wearing a special orange-red anti-G-suit, walked towards the fighter plane with his head held high.

After the establishment of the No. [-] project, Chengfei created a new system. The selection of test pilots was carried out simultaneously with the development of the aircraft.Among the test pilots selected in the initial stage, Lei Qiang's performance was the best.

In 84, Lei Qiang was selected to join the flight test team of the No. 4000 Project. Before that, he had already flown J-20, J-16, J-[-], and Qiang-[-]. Regarding the characteristics of the third-generation aircraft, he went abroad and flew a variety of models, such as the Mirage [-], F-[-], F-[-], and also flew the variable stability aircraft specially developed for the development of the fly-by-wire system. He has rich flying experience. Hundreds of hours of flight time of the third-generation aircraft have been accumulated.

The political commissar of the flight test brigade accompanied Lei Qiang. At this moment, seeing Lei Qiang's face flushed, he couldn't help being concerned: "Old Lei, do you want to measure your blood pressure?"

"My whole body is boiling now, and the hot blood can rush out of the Tianling Gai. How can it be possible that the blood pressure is not high? It's okay to measure the pulse." Lei Qiang said.

Lei Qiang was very excited. After all, this was the first flight of this type of aircraft, and he shouldered heavy responsibilities.

As the two walked, the political commissar grabbed Lei Qiang's arm and took his pulse. It turned out to be one hundred and fifty per minute!

"Old Lei, is that okay?" the political commissar asked.

"No problem." Lei Qiang said: "This is our first time, no matter who it is, it will be exciting."

The first thousand and twenty-four chapters I X, what's going on

Then, as soon as Lei Qiang raised his eyes, he saw the chief designer of this plane, Chief Engineer Song!

Seeing the flushed Lei Qiang, Mr. Song patted him on the back and said, "It's up to you."

"Don't worry, Mr. Song, even if I, Lei Qiang, break an arm or a leg, I will fly the plane back to you! Even if it falls, I will also fall on the runway! I want you to know that our ten years of painstaking efforts , What went wrong!" Lei Qiang said while walking, but found that Mr. Song had stopped, and when he raised his head, Mr. Song's eye circles were already wet.

The danger of a test pilot is very great. Flying is a high-risk occupation, and test flight is even more dangerous.

Most of the third-generation aircraft are operated by fly-by-wire, statically unstable aircraft, as long as a small mistake, it will lead to catastrophic consequences, and the fly-by-wire system is also very challenging. The possibility of causing a crash.In the development of the third-generation aircraft, the United States and Europe have all crashed their aircraft due to these reasons, and the test pilots spilled blood in the sky.

For this test flight, they originally wanted to add counterweight to the plane and change it into a statically stable plane, but Lei Qiang refused and insisted on flying this kind of plane.The danger of the first test flight is even greater.

Before this, although he hadn't really flown it, Lei Qiang had already operated this kind of plane for many times, and he was already full of confidence in the plane.

At this time, a JJ[-] that was in charge of accompanying the flight had already flown into the blue sky, waiting for the new JJ to take off for observation.

When we came to the bottom of Xinjian, the heads of each subsystem were all waiting there.They have finished testing the various systems of the aircraft.

"How sure are you?" Lei Qiang asked casually.

"From our tests, our new J-J has no problems at all. After you fly back, we will be more confident."

Hearing what they said, there is still no answer, Lei Qiang thought in his heart, he went around the plane and began to check the plane.
