Chapter 744: The Problem of the Trainer Plane
"This inspection is really an eye-opener." On the return plane, everyone was still discussing, and the Sukhoi Design Bureau also used their own passenger plane to bid farewell to the Chinese guests.
Sukhoi's factory is in Komsomolsk, and they often need to go back to Moscow, so Sukhoi has a special plane, and now, the special plane for Sukhoi's top management is used to carry out the task of transporting their guests, which is definitely a special honor.
Since it is a special plane, if you talk about some of the contents of the investigation on it, you won't worry about leaks, everyone is very happy, especially Tang Gang, who came out to see it for the first time, and really increased his horizons and the world, even if he didn't fly on the plane, it was exciting enough.
"This kind of aircraft is too advanced, and it is very different from our previous aircraft, so if we buy it, we will definitely need to buy some two-seater types." Qin Feng opened his mouth and said.
In fact, in the past, any fighter had a two-seat trainer type, only the J-8 did not, because the flight characteristics of the J-8 are extremely similar to the J-7, so the use of the J-7 trainer aircraft can also train the pilots of the J-8.
Now, when Qin Feng talked about this two-seater type, General Lin also nodded again and again: "Yes, we must buy some two-seater models, these aircraft are in our air force, mainly responsible for the research of third-generation aircraft tactics and other tasks, two-seaters, it is even more indispensable." ”
"In the future, when the number of Su-27 is enough, then, we will not only have old pilots to change flights, but also new pilots to adapt to flying, I think, our Air Force still lacks training aircraft."
Now, the domestic training aircraft system is also very backward, first use the propeller of the initial teaching five, and then use the Jianjiao five, the Jianjiao seven has just been successfully developed, the army is not much equipped, and even if it comes out of the Jianjiao-seven, and then change to fly the Su-27, it is not easy, therefore, it is necessary to use a large number of two-seaters, the Su-27 is quite valuable, and the precious life of the airframe is used to train pilots, which is really a waste.
"Yes, we don't have advanced training aircraft, and we can only do that, but our domestic aviation industry is also making continuous efforts, I heard that the development of Jiao-8 is progressing very well, this time if we have time, we can go and see Jiaoba." General Lin said.
After going back, he must first report to his superiors, and after the report is completed, if there is no major event, General Lin will plan to go to see Jiaoba.
320 factory, Qin Feng has been there before, with the reform of the country, there has been a crisis, but, in the end, it was safely passed, later, the country needs a training aircraft, and Pakistan also needs, after consultation, it was decided to develop a beginner teaching machine in the 320 factory, this is the origin of teaching eight.
Later, Qin Feng didn't pay much attention to it, and now, listening to General Lin say this, is Jiao Ba coming out?
"At the beginning of this year, the prototype was ready to be built, and it is estimated that it will enter the test flight institute for a test flight mission next year, of course, if you are not in a hurry, you can see it next year, and this year, when we are busy here, we will go over and take a look."
"Of course I'm going to go back and see." Qin Feng said happily: "I really want to see what this jet trainer looks like, I can't wait." ”
It is difficult to develop advanced fighter jets in China, because the technical difficulty of fighter jets is too high, but the training aircraft is different, and its technical difficulty is much lower, for example, it can be seen from a simple research and development fund that the total development cost of this aircraft is 24 million US dollars, which is not comparable to the price of a modern third-generation aircraft!
However, for China, the significance of this training aircraft is significant, because it has got rid of the shadow of the previous MiG aircraft and began to use a special training aircraft to train pilots.
For example, when it was designed, it was low in the front and high in the rear, and the two pilots in the front and rear had a good field of vision, but in all the current domestic training aircraft, there was no such design, so the flight of the training aircraft was also dangerous, and the instructor in the rear cabin often needed to use a periscope to observe the situation in front, which increased the degree of complexity.
At the same time, because it is developed in cooperation with Pakistan, it has taken the road of international cooperation from the beginning, and in terms of supporting equipment, it can also use a large number of mature equipment from the West, such as the ejection seat of the British Martin Baker company, the Western electronic flight instrument system, the instrument landing system, the Tacan navigation system, etc., which can use mature products in the international market to greatly accelerate the development progress.
Now, Qin Feng is also looking forward to this aircraft.
After returning to the capital, General Lin was busy for a few days, and then took Qin Feng and went to Hongdu.
When he arrived at his destination, Qin Feng opened his eyes wide, in Factory 320, Qin Feng saw familiar faces, his wife and children were actually in Factory 320!
"Daddy!" Seeing Qin Feng, the little tiger head ran over, climbed on Qin Feng's broad shoulders, and rode on his neck.
Little Tiger Head, you are already so old, is it appropriate to do this?
"Why are you here?" Qin Feng looked at Gu Tingting and couldn't help asking.
"On a business trip, it happened that Xiaohutou was on summer vacation, so I came over with Xiaohutou." Gu Tingting said.
Business trip? Qin Feng suddenly remembered something: "Three-axis stabilizer, are you planning to use our teaching eight as a platform?" ”
"You husband and wife, you are really focused on work." General Lin sighed on the side and said: "When we meet, we talk about work, let's go, let's take a look at Jiaoba, Lao Shi, what about Lao Shi?" ”
As soon as they said this, Qin Feng and Gu Tingting's faces turned red, as husband and wife, they both put all their minds on work, when they met, didn't they have intimate words? Although in this era, it is unspeakable to let people say I love you when they meet, but if you care about ordinary things, there should be between lovers.
Of course there is, but there is no need to say these words, one look can express one's longing, Gu Tingting's thoughts about Qin Feng are all in her eyes.
"Let's go, let's take a look at Jiaoba, I don't know how far this plane has been?" Qin Feng resumed his attitude towards work.
The last time I went to Chengdu, the metal prototype of the J-10 would take months to assemble, but what about the current Jiaoba? When he walked into the factory, Qin Feng froze, isn't it already good?
A modern training aircraft with a beautiful shape is in the factory building, looking like that, it can fly at any time.
