Knight of the Light

There is a disassembled Tomcat in the hangar of Hongdu Factory. The fuselage, wings, casing, avionics, landing gear, engine, internal hydraulics, etc. were disassembled one by one.

Most military institutes in the domestic aviation industry sent people to carry out surveying and mapping, and discuss together what is worth learning from this three-generation aircraft produced 20 years ago.

"Are you going to reverse-map the "Tomcat"?" Sattari asked. Persia also intends to imitate the "Tomcat", but it is technically impossible to do so. It can only imitate the second-generation machine such as the f-5e, and it is also unfavorable.

Xiao Jinlang shook his head, "For extremely complex industrial products, reverse learning is ok, and imitation is too difficult. Our engineers still intend to design positively. Although the domestic scientific research unit has insufficient confidence, the president thinks it can be done."

Many people think that at the domestic industrial level in the 1990s, imitation of Su-27 is the only way out. But what gives Zhou Qingfeng confidence is the "Project No. 10" that has not even been built by the prototype.

In terms of manufacturing level, J-10 is much stronger than J-11.

It's a pity that it's impossible for Master Song to preside over the'Red Tomcat' project. Zhou Qingfeng can only send some health care products in the past, and hope that Master will live longer.

"Red Tomcat" currently has no chief engineer, only Sofia is responsible for co-ordination, and Alsie gives some suggestions in terms of subsystem manufacturing.

‘Holy Light’ intends to train newcomers and selects a group of engineering staff of 30 to 40 years old to form multiple project teams, let them spend money to compete in schemes, and select the best among the best.

In order to achieve results as soon as possible, Zhou Qingfeng will pull a group of people to drink intellectual medicaments to engage in a ‘thought storm’ every time in the country and forcefully advance the project progress.

It can be considered as such, three years later to complete the design stereotypes is considered fast.

There are too many places to make up for lessons in the domestic manufacturing industry. The founding of the country has gone through the path of others for hundreds of years. Zhou Qingfeng now has to compress this time again.

Next to the hangar, there is a good Tomcat, and the ground crew is busy replacing brake pads on the landing gear. Next to it, technicians are observing the use of the disc.

Xiao Jinlang introduced: "On the one hand, we are engaged in surveying and mapping and positive development. On the other hand, we are also engaged in replacement of parts, such as those brake discs are produced in Guizhou. It is said that it can be used, but there is still a big gap with the original goods."

The brake discs on the landing gear are consumables. This thing looks inconspicuous, but there is no way to land safely. Persian Tomcats are also in great demand. But they can only rely on a small amount of smuggling supplies.

It is these tens of millions of inconspicuous small parts that cause the fighters to properly undermine. The Persian Tomcat pilot can’t fly for a few hours a year because he can’t afford it.

Sattari didn't insist on asking where the "Tomcat" of "Holy Light" came from. Instead, they came to visit the Persian ‘private pilots’ after private consultations, hoping to personally experience the test fighter at the Hongdu plant.

"Chen Rui."

Xiao Jinlang did not immediately agree. He first called a test pilot belonging to the group, asked a few words in a low voice, and then nodded in agreement after receiving a positive answer.

"Your people can only sit in the position of the rear seat weapon officer, our pilot is responsible for driving."

Chen Rui was the pilot who used to drive Su-27 but was bullied by Alsie to collapse and cry. The guy felt painful and strongly requested to be transferred to learn to drive the Tomcat.

The domestic decision to imitate Su-27 will take 98 years, and after determining the technical route, it will be impossible to pay for two heavy third-generation aircraft. Now it is only 92 years. So Zhou Qingfeng is currently intentionally or unintentionally suppressing Su-27.

This is not only to provide more advanced fighters to the country, but also to prevent Mao from earning tens of billions of dollars in military foreign exchange. To make the furry bear to the north weaker, it is better to split again.

To achieve this goal, ‘Holy Light’ will pay for it on its own and ask the Air Force to experience ‘Tomcat’. As long as the people flying by are full of praise, they will never forget the variable-swept wings and high-performance radar.

The Air Force finally introduced the first batch of twenty-four Su-27s. After being happy for half a year, the Blue Army, composed of Tomcats, came to play every day. Pilots who kicked Su-27 suspected life.

‘Holy Light’ currently has sufficient lobbying power. Zhou Qingfeng even patted his chest to ensure that the'Red Tomcat' will build a prototype within five years, and incidentally the Navy's aircraft carrier and carrier aircraft will be solved together.

This temptation is too great.

With this series of foreshadowing, seed pilots like Chen Rui naturally ran to the'Holy Light' to mix up. A Persian pilot named Ali joined him on board the Tomcat.

"Ali?" Chen Rui communicated with each other in English. Hearing the name of the Persian pilot, he immediately asked, "During the Iran-Iraq war, you have an ace pilot named Ali, do you know?"

The Persian pilot wore a pair of sunglasses and a beard, and he smiled, "I am that Ali."

The pilot who got the actual combat crash, although only one was shot down, but this year is rare-except for the monsters like Uncle Zhou who rely on girls to fight and shoot down three in the air.

Chen Rui could not help but shake hands with each other again, and politely asked the other party's experience. The two did not delay time and continued talking after boarding the fighter.

"I heard that all of your Persian Tomcat pilots are trained by Americans?"

"Yes. Old pilots do have training experience in the United States, but we also train our own pilots. Where did you receive the training?"

"I was trained in the country, and foreign flight instructors came to train." Chen Rui thought about it, thinking that Alsie should be regarded as a "foreign flight instructor."

"Overseas? That foreign country?"

"Confidential."

"This is also confidential? I came here to exchange with you. I was also trained at the company "Grumman", and I might know your instructor."

"possible."

Chen Rui is not much nonsense, two tf-30s started after a short take-off, and went straight into the sky. He and Ali flew for about half an hour and performed some simple tactical moves to test the abilities of both parties.

After getting off the plane, the two happily praised each other's abilities, and expressed the opportunity to simulate air combat several times, challenging a feeling of near actual combat.

However, after returning to Sattari, Ali said with a sullen face: "That "Chen" was originally a seed pilot of Su-27. After changing to the "Tomcat", he did learn the American combat style.

He said that he only learned a few months, but in terms of ability is already very good. One detail is that their ‘Blue Army’ has almost daily missions, with each person flying at least 20 hours per month.

This shows that they do not lack spare parts, and even the spare engine can be used. Behind this is strong logistical support, which deserves our high attention. "

After Satari listened, he nodded sullenly.

Ali was very strange and asked, "What happened?"

"Just now you were flying in the sky, and several military attaches from different countries came to visit. Although they didn't talk up close, the uniform they wore was easy to recognize."

"who is it?"

"Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Libya, Tanzania, Iraq, Bangladesh and Pakistan. "Holy Light" is really carefree, bringing forces belonging to different factions together. The president is simply crazy."
