Genius of the Rules-Style System

Chapter 517 Test flight? Just give it a try?

Debugging and computer use.

When the components and electronic equipment of the fighter jet are successfully debugged and everything is running normally, the aircraft can be put on the aircraft, that is, the core component, the engine, can be installed.

The installation of the engine is a very delicate task. Compared with lower-end fighter jets, the installation of the engine is relatively easy.

The WZ-A1 engine did not take too long when it was first put on the aircraft for test flight. At that time, it was only connected to the main core interface. Because the fighter jet and the engine did not match, it could only complete the basic operation.

Now it's different with the War Eagle-1. The War Eagle-1 is designed around the WZ-A1 engine. The WZ-A1 engine has also made some functional improvements and adjustments in order to adapt to the War Eagle-1. It can be said that 'Complete match', all the above functions and line interfaces will be used.

The WZ-A1 engine is installed on the Warhawk aircraft. There are more than 60 interfaces alone. Some connections require precision welding, which takes a long time.

"It will probably take more than three days."

When Liu Jiankun and his party came to inquire, Zhao Yi gave a time, "I asked Captain Yuan and others, it will take two days at the fastest. But we must ensure that there will be no problems during the installation process. .”

"Yes, the most important thing is not to go wrong!"

Liu Jiankun nodded, and then smiled at the others, "Academician Zhao's serious and responsible work attitude is worth learning from everyone."

"yes!"

“You have to be serious when getting on the plane!”

"The most important thing is not to have any problems. Any small problem will become a big problem."

"That's right."

Several people followed suit, almost praising the previous sentence.

In fact, it doesn't sound like a big deal, and it would be the same for other people, but in Zhao Yi's case, it seems to reflect the seriousness of his work.

He Shulin curled his lips after hearing this, but still didn't say anything. Passing the debugging in one try was enough to prove Zhao Yi's ability level. Is there anything left to question?

Moreover, three days is not long to install the engine. Because it is an experimental stage, every step is an 'exploration' and there is no relevant work experience. You must take your time step by step. Any small mistake may bring huge consequences. loss.

The next step is to work on the machine.

Zhao Yi was still the same as before, strictly supervising every step of the work. He did not directly participate in it, but only supervised and watched from the side, and gave instructions from time to time.

But with Zhao Yi directing beside them, everyone else felt much more relaxed. They all felt that they were not worried about problems, otherwise they would be pointed out by Zhao Yi. If they asked Zhao Yi any questions, they would definitely get answers.

Some people in Liu Jiankun and his party chose to leave immediately after hearing "three days".

Some stayed.

Among those who stayed, there were many representatives from the military. The military representatives came to see the War Eagle aircraft. They hoped to see progress in the research and development of the War Eagle aircraft.

Every day I stay now, I seem to be able to see progress, so I just stay here and see the first-hand news with my own eyes.

The senior leaders of the Air Force are very concerned about the research and development of the Warhawk aircraft, and they seem to be eager to field a few Warhawk aircraft.

This sounds a bit unrealistic, but it also represents the expectations of the Air Force leadership for the Warhawk-1.

Zhao Yi's grasp of the time was very accurate. It took exactly three days to put the engine on the machine, and he also conducted electronic equipment docking and debugging during the process.

Three days later.

The Warhawk aircraft was pulled to the outer runway by a tractor and was ready to officially start the ignition test.

Although the name of the test is 'ignition', it actually involves igniting the engine to propel the aircraft on the runway.

The ignition test does not make the aircraft fly. It just lets the aircraft run for a while to see if there are any problems with normal startup.

At the beginning, the engine was ignited, and the control console issued the ignition command. The aircraft was still restrained, which was also a test of the aircraft's fuselage's ability to withstand thrust.

"Fire test!"

"Countdown, 10, 9, 8..."

"...2, 1, start!"

The commander at the console shouted start, and the engine suddenly made a noise, and then the noise gradually became louder. Flames suddenly spurted out from the rear of the aircraft, and the surrounding area was filled with roars.

The 'ignition test' lasted for three minutes. It only ran the engine at the lowest power to check that there was no problem with the aircraft's electronic equipment, and then it was over.

Next is running the tests.

At this time, the aircraft's fixed frame was removed, and a pilot came up. The pilot in charge of the test was Zhai Licheng, who was doing engine testing.

At that time, Zhao Yi told Zhai Licheng that he should be the one to test the Warhawk aircraft. When the aviation group was considering testing the Warhawk, Zhai Licheng was directly chosen.

As a test pilot of the top fighter jet, Zhai Licheng is a bit older. In fact, a better choice is a pilot in his early thirties, who is in relatively better health and has better endurance and reaction.

However, it is just an ordinary test now. It does not require the plane to take off at high speed, do supersonic tests, or do any difficult maneuvers. The pilot is older, so it does not have any impact.

Zhai Licheng was standing next to him fully equipped, already gearing up and impatient.

The debugging speed of the War Eagle-1 was too fast, which made the aviation group unable to respond in time. Zhai Licheng only received training for half a month, and it was only conducted on a specially manufactured training device.

Although Zhai Licheng is an old pilot with rich experience, the control of the War Eagle-1 is different from other fighter jets. An automatic control system has been added, which makes a lot of difference in the control of the fighter jet.

It's like a driver who drives a heavy truck suddenly drives an advanced sports car. He must get used to it first.

Zhai Licheng was obviously a little excited. He hoped to suppress the feelings in his heart, but he still couldn't help it. Others quickly cheered him up and asked him to calm down.

At this time, Zhai Licheng was thinking that in front of him was the most advanced fighter jet. He became a test pilot and was the first to board the plane. It was definitely a huge honor and very memorable.

Unfortunately, I couldn't take pictures.

This is a bit of a pity.

Zhao Yi also walked to Zhai Licheng. He did not offer encouragement or anything else. Instead, he talked to Zhai Licheng about operational problems, which were all related to the automatic control system. "You should pay attention when operating. The automatic control system is very smart and will It automatically adjusts the fuselage according to the environment in which the aircraft is located, and in extreme cases, controls the engine operation."

"If you are not very skilled, or encounter unexpected situations, it is best not to switch to manual control, otherwise it will become a bit complicated."

"..."

Zhao Yi talked a lot in succession, all related to the automatic control system.

The biggest difference between the operation of the Warhawk-1 aircraft and other fighter jets is automatic control. Automatic control does not control the flight of the aircraft, but controls the engine and fuselage, which may affect the normal operation of the pilot.

Zhai Licheng nodded repeatedly as he listened, focusing on the operation, and his excitement calmed down a lot.

Finally, the test preparations begin.

Zhai Licheng also walked towards the fighter jet with firm steps.

Many people cheered him on, and the commander kept reminding him, "Be careful, don't do too much. This time it's just a test run."

"receive!"

The commander’s reminder is still very important.

Zhai Licheng has only undergone simple and basic training and is not familiar with flight performance parameters. Too many operations may cause problems.

Fortunately, it is only the first test. The startup test does not require the aircraft to fly. It only requires the aircraft to start operating normally and accelerate for a certain distance. That's it.

The maximum speed of the test plan is only 200 miles.

This speed cannot even keep up with a high-speed sports car. On a huge and empty airport runway, the risk is still very small. Even if there is a problem, the command console can also signal control to stall the engine and force it to stop.

Zhai Licheng walked into the cabin. He got on the plane with ease and ease, stood on it and gave a military salute to this side. Then he sat in the cabin and closed the barrier above the cabin.

"Prepare!"

Following the commander's shout, other external connection lines on the aircraft were removed, and external electronic parameter monitoring equipment was connected.

"Light the fire and get ready!"

At this time, the commander communicated with Zhai Licheng. After confirming that everything was OK and ready to start, he immediately issued a preparation signal.

"10, 9, 8..."

"...2, 1!"

"start up!"

The words fell.

There was a noise from the aircraft engine, and the noise quickly became louder. Then the aircraft moved independently for the first time, and slowly accelerated.

The commanders and testers in the distance were constantly monitoring the aircraft's operating parameters. Everyone was very nervous and worried about any problems at any time.

Zhao Yi just watched the plane operate. He was not too worried, but asked Liu Jiankun, "If all the data is normal, can we start a test flight?"

"Let's take a look at this."

Liu Jiankun was also a little nervous. He didn't understand why Zhao Yi was so calm. He also hoped that there would be no problems with the plane. It would be better if there were no minor problems. He thought about it and said, "If all the data is normal, you can try it." try?"

He looked at the others as he spoke, as if seeking support.

Everyone else just listened.

In fact, everyone knows that it is a bit too early to conduct a test flight directly. The next step must be carried out to make the aircraft run a few times before testing it. After all, it is the most high-tech fighter aircraft. It is not easy to manufacture. The cost of the prototype The cost exceeded one billion yuan.

This cost is equivalent to every component on the aircraft being made of gold.

If something goes wrong in the middle, the loss will be too great, time and cost will be wasted, and the result will be unaffordable.

Zhao Yi was very indifferent, "If all the data is normal, why continue to test? The next test will also be normal."

He's really confident.

The system capabilities have already given the answer. He cannot guarantee that there are not even minor problems, but there are definitely no major problems. During the assembly process, all the problems that can be found have been fixed, and there is no point in continuing to test.

The plane was still speeding through the airport, its speed soaring to two hundred miles, which was the planned maximum speed.

Zhai Licheng's operation was still very experienced. He also controlled the turn and controlled the speed very well to ensure that the aircraft would not have any problems due to operation.

soon.

The ten-minute running test is over.

The aircraft returned to its original location, and the inspectors also reported various parameters. All data were normal and basically consistent with the plan.

The commander did not issue an order, so Zhai Licheng continued to wait in the cabin.

At this time, Liu Jiankun listened to the normal parameters, turned his head and asked Zhao Yi, "How about you give it a try?"

Zhao Yidao said, "I don't have any objection. It would be good if the progress is faster. Don't waste time in vain."

The others looked at me and I looked at you, but no one said anything.

Everyone hopes to see the test flight directly instead of waiting slowly, but the direct test flight does not match the plan and the speed is a bit too fast.

If something goes wrong during the test flight and an accident occurs, Zhao Yi probably won't be affected, because his status is unshakable and it doesn't matter if he takes responsibility, while others can't bear it.

Maybe……

When the superior leaders heard the news, they felt that it was their problem, and the reason was very good. "Academician Zhao is only in his twenties and has no experience. He doesn't understand and has no experience. Why don't you try to persuade him at the scene? Moreover, he I don’t have the right to make a direct decision, it’s still your problem.”

"If such a big accident occurs, how much damage will be caused!"

Then, take responsibility.

Some people think about it deeply and want to stop them. But when they find that no one else is speaking, they don't speak up.

Liu Jiankun found that no one had any objections, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Just give it a try!"

As soon as this sentence came out, the commander immediately confirmed it, then communicated with Zhai Licheng in the plane, and then confirmed the operation process, and then directly prepared for the test flight.

When the decision was made, everyone put aside their worries and began to look forward to it.

The Warhawk-1 is the fighter jet project that has attracted the most attention because it was very advanced in design. It was originally compared with the F-35, and its theoretical performance even surpasses the F-35.

The domestic J-20 is also very advanced, and its highest rating can be close to that of the fifth-generation aircraft. However, the J-20 is a heavy fighter, and its combat and use are limited. The benchmark of the J-20 is the M country's F-22, while the F-35 is just an F A reduced version of -22.

The current War Eagle-1 is a true medium-sized fighter, lighter than the F-35, and equipped with the highest technology. The first test flight is very important.

When the commander and Zhai Licheng finished communicating and officially prepared for the test flight, many people's hearts were raised. They even regretted not objecting just now. It was definitely better to play it safe, but it was definitely too late to stop it.

"It can only be this way!"

"I hope there won't be any problems, any problems... In the end, I'll fly around and come back right away, and just take off and land normally."

"Just don't make any big problems!"

at the same time.

Zhai Licheng in the cabin was also very excited. He didn't even think about getting on the plane and went straight into the test flight. He felt unprepared.

However, he still suppressed his excitement and his expression became firm.

"Can't make a mistake!"

"It will definitely succeed! Just follow the normal operations during training!"

"No problem, come on!"
