It can be said that test pilots are not only pilots, but also engineers and scientific and technological personnel, and many failures are caused by test pilots who put forward their own theories and then improve them. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the same time, test pilots are also a high-risk profession, in the world, any test flight of a third-generation aircraft, there is a danger of crashing, MiG-29, Su-27, F-15, F-16, have all crashed the plane, died test pilots, even F-22 is no exception, only Huaxia's J-10, created a miracle without crashing.

Test pilot, always with the Grim Reaper!

In history, the first T-10S-1 crashed due to fuel system failure, and Sukhoi Meritorious Test Pilot Ilyushin narrowly escaped death; The second T-10S-2 crashed due to a malfunctioning leading edge flap, and test pilot Alexander Komanov unfortunately died.

And now, the test flight of the T-10 is quite smooth, and there is no crash and no death, but how can a brand-new aircraft be handed over to General Andrey to fly! And General Andrei has not yet undergone any training in modification!

The flight characteristics of the T-10 are different from the previous MiG-25 and MiG-31, although General Andrei flew quite well on the MiG-25 and flew this interceptor as a fighter, but, after all, this is a second-generation aircraft, and the T-10 operated by wire, if it has not undergone special training, it is easy to trigger PIO (pilot-induced oscillation), which can not make General Andrei risk!

Andrei really wants to say that I am completely familiar with the characteristics of this aircraft, and I can even use this aircraft to fly the Cobra maneuver that impresses the whole world! Regardless of the real fighting performance, at least it is quite fancy!

However, Andrei still held back, if he could fly this T-10S, and he flew quite skillfully, would he let these people see him as monsters? It's better to bear with it, and when it is finalized and equipped with the air defense force, you will naturally have the opportunity to fly.

"General Andrey, if you want to fly now, you can fly on the simulator once." Simonov said.

Flight Simulator! Since the invention of the airplane by the Wright brothers, how to train pilots has been a problem for aviation schools, almost since before the invention of airplanes, that is, in the era of ******, flight simulators have begun.

In 1910, Arnold Saunders, a British officer, mounted the fuselage of his own aircraft with a gimbal bracket on a ground pedestal. When the wind blows, the fuselage rotates with it, and the crew maneuvers the moving parts of the elevator and rudder to obtain aerodynamic reactions similar to those in real flight. This is arguably the earliest flight simulator, but if the wind is not strong and stable enough, this humble simulator can only be used as a stationary ornament.

Until the Second World War, the advent of electronic computers, the flight simulator was introduced into the electronic age, 41 years, the British Telecommunications Research Institute designed a simulation computer that can solve the equation of motion of the aircraft, used in the air interception radar trainer, can simulate the use of radar to guide the interception process. When developing a combat flight trainer for the Navy's PBM-3 seaplane, Bell Labs in the United States combined the front fuselage of the PBM-3 with its control devices, instruments, and other equipment, and electronic computing devices.

However, the analog computer has never been able to overcome the cause of the cumulative error, and the accuracy is not very high, until the later period, with the rapid development of digital electronic computers, the flight simulator gradually began to really assume its mission.

Since the 70s, the new simulator with high-performance digital computer as the core has begun to enter the training system of various aviation powers, this large-scale simulator generally has a complete cockpit equipment and its analog control system, which can carry out up and down, left and right, front and rear, pitch, tilt and deflection and other large strokes of six degrees of freedom movement, sensitive response and high precision, not only can reflect the normal attitude change, but also can simulate the effect of stall flutter and engine surge.

For example, in the early 70s, the United States already had a practical spherical air combat simulator, whose cockpit was fixed, provided with a sense of overload through vibrating seats and inflatable anti-load suits, and with the change of the projection screen, the operator had a large sense of movement, suitable for air combat tactics and aerobatic training.

And just now, the US Air Force has been equipped with F-15 and F-16 full-mission simulators, which can be used not only for personnel training, but also for the study of tactical confrontation.

However, these USSRs are lagging behind, and for no other reason than the level of electronic technology!

Although in terms of mainframe computers, the USSR was not lagging behind, and some of the supercomputers of the USSR were even at the advanced level in the world. However, if you want to carry out flight simulation, you need not only a computer system, but also a processing device, which requires all kinds of sensors and various control circuits, and the backwardness of microelectronics technology in the Soviet Union made it impossible for them to build such advanced simulators.

But now, everything is different, with the advanced electronic technology of the island nation, the entire Soviet military-industrial system is undergoing earth-shaking changes!

The victory of the USSR in the Far East was not only strategic, but also the acquisition of electronic technology from the island nation, which brought an all-round boost to the Soviets! It can be said that even if there is no geographical advantage of the island country, even if it is just to obtain the electronics industry of the island country, it is worth starting a war!

Andrei followed Simonov to this large simulator, and you can see that the shape of the entire nose is the same as that of the test flight model, and there is a circular dome in front of it, which will show the scene synthesized by the computer.

"General Andrei, would I like to introduce you to the layout of the cockpit first?" Simonov said.

Although the electronic technology of the Soviet Union has been greatly improved, it will take a certain amount of time for designers to change their concepts. There is still a long way to go to realize the glass cockpit of future generations.

However, this also has the advantage that it is easy to get started, so to speak, as long as you have flown one kind of fighter, the rest of the fighters are almost the same!

"No, you don't." Saying that, Andre sat in, since it was a simulator, there was no need to wear a flight suit, a flight cap, sat in, tightened the seat belt, and Andrei's flight experience began.

Think about future generations, when training the Su-27, it is mainly based on two-seat training, which is quite expensive, and with this simulator, you can save a lot of flight costs. (To be continued.) )
