The canard layout is inherently static and unstable, relying on the pilot's own feeling must not be able to tame it, only the computer can, and how the computer tames the aircraft, relying on a set of flight control programs, the problems encountered in the flight are ever-changing, all kinds of problems need to be taken into account, any one is not well considered, it is a potential safety hazard, in the flight, may encounter danger.

In order to verify the flight control system, a special iron bird station is required.

The Iron Bird Platform is a one-to-one model that is exactly the same as the aircraft, and its flight control, hydraulics, and landing gear system mechanical installation interfaces, attachment installation positions, hydraulic pipeline layout and installation methods are consistent with the real aircraft, so that it undertakes the aircraft system-level research and development and verification, aircraft multi-system comprehensive verification, and flight control system, hydraulic system and landing gear system airworthiness verification and other test tasks with a realistic mentality, providing important guarantees for aircraft system integration, flight test safety, flight test troubleshooting, and subsequent model improvement.

Now, this all-metal prototype, the corresponding systems are designed according to the actual design, which can simulate any situation in flight and detect whether the design of the flight controller is perfect.

To say that in terms of program design, the most experienced in China should be the BW-1 R&D team of Gu Tingting and others, and Gu Tingting is the most proficient in the preparation of flight control programs, so now Song Lao put forward this idea, poached Gu Tingting, and participated in the research and development of the flight control of this fighter.

For J-10, whether it can be successfully developed depends on whether this flight controller is qualified! No, it's not qualified, it's definitely not 60 long live, it must be 100% perfect, any ill-considered, there may be problems.

Now, Qin Feng heard Song Lao's words, and an embarrassed expression appeared on his face.

"Song Lao, Tingting is now participating in the research and development of the multi-axis stabilizer, and she has been appointed as the person in charge of this project." Qin Feng said: "So, Old Song, you know, although I am looking forward to Jianshi flying into the sky one day sooner, however, Tingting has her own career, and I can't interfere with her career." ”

In the past year or two, Gu Tingting has been running to the 320 factory from time to time, looking forward to developing a three-axis stabilized machine on the basis of Jiao-8, as an air laboratory, to make up for the gap in domestic scientific research, and this project can be said to be above the J-10, and after it is successfully developed, it can not only simulate the J-10, but also simulate other aircraft, and even large aircraft, so the foothold of this aircraft is very high.

Is it appropriate to let Tingting develop the flight controller of the J-10? Qin Feng knows that Tingting is also a very ambitious person, and he can't interfere with her career, now, Xiaohutou is already big, and she is alone when she goes to and from school, sometimes Tingting goes on a business trip, Xiaohutou is at home alone, goes to the cafeteria to eat, writes homework, and goes to bed, this self-reliance ability makes Qin Feng sigh, now Tingting is the time to do her career, how can she influence Tingting's work arrangement?

Qin Feng couldn't do it.

"Qin Feng, you misunderstood, I didn't mean to ask Tingting to come over completely." Song Lao said: "The project she studied is also quite useful, and she is a person from the test flight institute, I mean, since she is studying the stability machine project, then, the stability machine must also need a flight controller, our J-10 flight controller can be used as the flight control of their first experiment of the stability machine, so that she joins in in such an capacity, which will not be delayed." ”

Song Lao's abacus is very good, and Qin Feng, who listened to it, also muttered for a while, what you said, is it feasible?

"Old Song, I can't guarantee this, I can only talk to Tingting." Qin Feng said, if Tingting doesn't agree, then I can't do anything.

"No, Qin Feng, you have to convince her with ideas." Song Lao changed his attitude: "You should know that our J-10 project is now struggling, we take a road of independent research and development, how difficult it is, now it is time to fight a tough battle, if this project fails, then we will completely lose the ability to develop fighters, in the future, we can only rely on purchase, you should know that strong national defense can not be bought!" ”

This sentence hit Qin Feng's heart and shocked Qin Feng again, that's right, there are too many uncertainties faced by Jian-10 in the current situation, and the Jian-9 project is bankrupt, does Jian-10 still have to follow the old path of Jian-9? How difficult it is to propel this aircraft to the present!

Shenyang, has been studying the J-8, still at the level of the second-generation aircraft, can really develop the third-generation aircraft, only the team led by Song Lao remains, if this project fails, then the domestic military aircraft research and development, will be completely broken, without the success of the third-generation aircraft, the fourth-generation aircraft will not be counted on.

This is a road full of thorns, in order to reach the other side of victory, it is necessary to overcome thorns, Song Lao is working hard for this project, but also working hard for the aviation industry of the motherland, in such a difficult situation, still did not give up the original intention, he now needs enough helpers, especially experienced people to help complete the optimization of the flight control together, for Song Lao, this is a must.

Actually, Song Lao had already talked to Gu Tingting once, but Gu Tingting politely refused, Gu Tingting didn't have so much energy, and now, Song Lao had the idea of fighting Qin Feng here.

"Okay, I'll do my best." Qin Feng said. This is already a promise, Qin Feng continued to look at the metal model, his mind stirring again.

"Old Song, how long will it take for our plane to fly?"

When the metal model is manufactured, it actually means that the research and development of this fighter has come to an end, and then the design is frozen, and the first prototype is made, ushering in its first flight, such as the J-7, which is the way.

"How long it will take depends on two conditions." Song Lao said: "The first is the problem of the engine, if the superior asks us to change the engine, it may delay the progress for a year." ”

Although now the Soviet Union has disappeared, but there is still Russia, Russia can be regarded as inheriting the mantle of the Soviet Union, if the Su-27 project continues to be fulfilled, then the Su-27 engine, if it is really decided to be used by the J-10, many designs of the J-10 will have to be re-carried out.

"Second, it is the flight controller, if our flight controller is not completely sure, we can't fly it." Song Lao said: "Especially this second condition, the stakes are very high, and we have a great responsibility!" ”

Not only is the responsibility heavy, but also the pressure is great, Qin Feng looked at Song Lao's white hair and nodded seriously.

Flight control, the key is flight control!
