After receiving the order from his superiors, Kori Dubu asked the ground staff to clean up the room, and also asked the canteen to prepare dinner, ready to invite these technicians of the 126 factory to eat, sleep, recuperate, and work again tomorrow, and he even prepared a welcome speech.

Who knows, these people didn't even enter the base headquarters, and went straight to the EP-3!

So, with a depressed face, Kozhdub could only come out of the headquarters, sit in an open-top gas off-road vehicle, and head towards the end of the track, and in the back seat of the car was Andrei, who was still in a state of excitement.

Originally, Andrei didn't need to go with him to meet the technicians of Factory 126, but Andrei wanted to see how the Ep-3 was dismantled and disassembled for study.

When they drove to the side of the EP-3 reconnaissance plane, the technicians had already stepped on the plane, and through the narrow hatch, they followed Kozhdub in, and Andrei felt that the base commander in front of him seemed to be a little excited.

"Comrade Simonov, it's a pleasure to meet you, I am the commander of this base, Kozhdub." With a smile on his face, Kozhidub stretched out his hand to the man in front of him.

This is a technician who is less than fifty years old, a little chubby, with high cheekbones, he stretched out his hand and shook Kozhdub's hand: "Commander Kozhdub, thank you very much to the comrades of the 523rd Regiment for allowing us to get in touch with the advanced electronic technology of the West, which is an outstanding contribution to our technological progress. ”

No wonder the boss did not blame this incident, but was very happy, and gave him a third-class meritorious service, it turned out that this plane was of such great help to his side! Kozh Dub immediately understood.

Simonov! Seeing that this old guy should be the leader of the team this time, Andrei in the back was suddenly excited, and the person in front of him was the father of the Su-27, Mikhail Petrovich Simonov!

Simonov also had a rich resume, having graduated from the Novocherkassk Polytechnic Institute and then the Kazan Aviation Academy in the Urals. In 53 years, he and his classmates from the Kazan Aviation Institute founded the Student ****** Design Bureau, which designed and built the world's leading all-metal structural ******. This design bureau eventually became the State ****** Design Bureau.

In the 70th year, Simonov accepted the leadership of Pavel Osipovich Sukhoi and entered the Sukhoi Design Bureau, which was famous throughout the Soviet Union, and he was highly valued by Sukhoi and presided over the development of the Su-24 fighter-bomber. In the course of development, he overcame many difficulties and completed the finalization, which made Sukhoi very satisfied, and then he took part in the Sukhoi Design Bureau's task of collecting and sorting out information on the F-15 and then determining the new generation of Soviet fighter aircraft suitable for it.

The prototype of the Su-27, the T-10 verification machine, has been designed since 69, but unfortunately, in 75 years, the weather-beaten Pavel Osipovich Sukhoi died, and the design work of the T-10 was replaced by the former first deputy chief designer Ivanov, and a few years later, the chief designer became the current Simonov in front of Andrei's eyes, it was Simonov who overrode the public opinion and almost overturned the T-10 program, so that there was a Su-27 fighter whose performance overwhelmed the F-15!

Last year, Sukhoi died, and Simonov, who was in front of him, became the chief designer of the Sukhoi Design Bureau, and this time he led a team to Komsomolsk, inspected and guided the improvement work of the 126 plant, and just received the news, he rushed to Sokolovka.

While the prototype of the T-10 was still being designed, preparations for the mass production of the fighter began, and the new fighter was very different in structure and technology from the Su-17 aircraft that was now being produced at the plant, and Simonov came here to help Plant 126 improve the process and technical conditions required for the production of the new aircraft. In order to quickly put the new aircraft into mass production after it is finalized.

The most advanced electronic reconnaissance aircraft in the West! By studying this reconnaissance aircraft, it was possible to make the electronic technology of the USSR advance by ten years! After all, the Soviets were burying their heads in development and going their own way, but there was nothing to refer to.

This US electronic reconnaissance plane must contain the most advanced electronic technology of the United States, and the gap in electronic technology between the Soviet Union and the Soviet Union is indeed not small.

Seeing that the commander of the Sokolovka base had come to greet him, Simonov only shook hands and talked a few words, at this time, he also noticed that there was a tall man following Kozhdub, his eyes were bright, and after just one glance, Simonov knew that it must be a pilot.

At this time, the pilot was looking at Simonov with adoring eyes, Simonov smiled, in the Soviet Union, soldiers, technicians, are respected, especially the chief designer like Simonov, who is at the forefront of Soviet aviation technology, is even more admired.

"Why are they all transistors?" In this short period of time, the technician was still working on the dismantling of the internal equipment, and when the screws on the console were removed, revealing the circuit board inside, a technician suddenly exclaimed.

"That black bump, why do there are so many leads, is it an integrated circuit?"

"Why don't you see the tube?"

Originally, they planned to disassemble the circuits, see the specific composition inside, and strive to map and map them out as soon as possible to determine the operation mode of these reconnaissance equipment. However, when they took it apart, they found that it was different from what they thought, not tubes with various glass bubbles, but transistors and integrated circuits! Especially integrated circuits, if you don't know the internal structure, it is difficult to analyze the circuit structure and imitation.

The electron tube is made according to the thermal electron effect discovered by Edison, and in the vacuum glass bubble, the electron diode and transistor are manufactured, which have the effect of gate and amplification, and constitute a variety of complex electronic circuits.

Later, in 48 years, the Americans invented crystal diodes and transistors in Bell Labs, which were manufactured with semiconductor materials, with less power consumption, small size and low failure rate, and in 58 years, they were manufactured into integrated circuits, combining many diodes and transistors together to make a chip, further reducing the size and failure rate.

Now it is 76 years, and the Americans have been quite rapid in the application of transistors and integrated circuits, and there are also a wide range of applications in the military field. However, the Soviet Union has always been uninterested in transistors and integrated circuits, they only love electron tubes.

"What do the Americans think, in the event of a nuclear war, these transistors and integrated circuits will be broken down by intense electromagnetic radiation." A technician began to worry about the Americans.

"The Americans are on the right track." Just then, a voice came from behind.
