Originally, Liang Lao felt that before leaving, he should resign from Qusay, but Qusay had been busy with the war on the front line, and in Baghdad, he did not return to Basra, and the country was urgent, so Liang Lao only told the commander of the Southern Military Region, Izzat, and then prepared to leave.

Who knows, just as they were about to set off, Lord Qusay came.

After a few months of getting along, Liang Lao actually had a feeling of admiration for Cusai, as if he had found a confidant! The idea of converting the C801 anti-ship missile into a cruise missile, proposed by Lord Qusay, has completely become a reality and has shown great power in real combat.

One of the most important surnames is high precision! Equipped with customary navigation equipment imported from France, coupled with terrain matching guidance, the accuracy of 200 kilometers is within 10 meters, and even in actual combat, it has achieved an accuracy of less than 2 meters, which is simply unimaginable for a ballistic missile.

Moreover, because the flight altitude of this cruise missile is very low, it is difficult to be detected by the opponent's radar network, unlike ballistic missiles, which are easy to be detected by the opponent's long-range radar after taking off.

This cruise missile, most likely, will shine in a future war! Liang Lao decided that after he returned, he would definitely organize and carry out research and development work in this area in China, and with these experiences in Iraq, they were very confident in developing a model with a longer range.

"Elder Liang, I heard that you are leaving?" When Zhang Feng came here, he got the news that Liang Lao was leaving.

"Yes." Liang Lao said: "Our work has been completed, this production line is also operating normally, and it is natural for us to go back." ”

Zhang Feng was also very impressed that China, a big country in the East, had provided this technical assistance to Iraq in a very good manner and had not concealed anything from it, which was in sharp contrast to the personnel from the United States, and the two sides had established a deep friendship in their work.

"There is an old saying in your country, which is called the banquet that is not dispersed in the world, and we would like to express our gratitude to your country for your help this time." Mr. Zhang said he was fluent in Chinese.

"Where," Liang Lao said: "Coming here, we technicians have also learned a lot of knowledge, especially cruise missiles, our personnel are really eye-opening, and the accuracy is ridiculously high." ”

"This accuracy is not the highest, and when GPS is widely used in the future, the accuracy can be greatly improved." Zhang Feng said.

“gps？” Liang Lao really hadn't heard of it, although at this time the predecessor of GPS, the meridian satellite positioning system, had been used in the US military, and GPS was still in the final demonstration stage, in this world, except for Zhang Feng who knew the huge use of this kind of thing in later generations, no one else knew.

"It's a satellite positioning system." Zhang Feng said: "But this technology is not mature yet. ”

Satellite positioning system? Liang Lao seemed to have a vague impression in his mind, where had he seen it.

"After Elder Liang returns to China, please convey my greetings to Tu Lao and others, and if they have any difficulties, welcome to come to me." Zhang Feng said.

Super 7, the main foreign trade fighter in the future, I don't know what happened to Tu Lao, Zhang Feng is very much looking forward to it, this fighter can be made in China a few years in advance.

With the J-8, which focuses on high altitude and high speed as soon as it is produced, China's future sky will not be able to hold up, and when this fighter is really developed, China's air force will definitely be equipped with it.

Zhang Feng himself invested in Chengfei, provided technical solutions, and contacted American companies to provide avionics, all of which were aimed at making this kind of fighter take off.

At the beginning, it was agreed that Chengfei would spend half a year to build the airframe, and then install avionics at the aircraft factory in Iraq.

China, Huangtianba, Qingyang District, Chengdu, where a large military enterprise is located, Chengdu Aircraft Company, formerly known as Factory 132.

Back in April 1956, according to the agreement signed by China and the Soviet Union on the Soviet Union's assistance to China's 156 key construction projects, the two countries formally signed the second batch of agreements on the Soviet Union's aid to China's aviation industry of 19 projects, and the 132 factory construction project was one of them. In May of the same year, the Second Ministry of Machinery Industry instructed that the new fighter aircraft manufacturing plant was codenamed Factory 132, which mainly produced J-5A fighters.

After several historical events, it has become Chengdu Aircraft Company, referred to as Chengfei, with an annual output of 200 J-7 fighters. One of the R&D institutions is the 611 Research Institute.

However, the J-7 fighter based on the MiG-21 can no longer meet the needs of the future sky, and under the leadership of the chief designer Tu Jida, the J-7 has been improved, but the surname can be improved to a limited extent.

Moreover, the country's focus is on Shen Fei's J-8 project, and Chengfei has received very little investment.

In this case, a friendly country in the Middle East began to inject funds into Chengfei, hoping to improve an improved version of an advanced J-7 suitable for future air combat, codename: Super 7!

The time is very tight, only half a year, but, under the leadership of Tu Jida, the progress is also very fast.

Although the nose and wing have been overhauled, from the nose air intake to the belly air intake, freeing up the precious head to install a large radar, and the wing has been changed to a double delta wing with leading edge maneuvering flaps, although these are new projects, but, after the wind tunnel, it was confirmed that it was completely suitable!

That Lord Qusay in Iraq is so amazing! Even Tu Jida sighed very much, that guy, as if he could do anything! Moreover, it is even more powerful than those of them who have been doing aircraft design for half their lives.

They don't know that Qusay has plagiarized the fruits of their own labor, and they just told them a few years in advance, otherwise, they themselves would have gone down this path after groping, but in this way, the time has been greatly shortened.

It took two months to blow the wind tunnel and confirm that there was no problem with the aerodynamic layout, especially the addition of a small fixed canard to form a vortex to the wing, and at the same time provide additional lift to overcome the problem of the center of gravity moving forward due to the installation of radar.

This set is like a tailor-made for Super 7! Tukida was very happy.

After blowing the wind tunnel, it took them two months to build three prototypes, which is unbelievably fast.

The rear fuselage is exactly the same as the J-7, and it can be copied completely, but the modified front fuselage is a little time-consuming, and the fighter used as a test flight does not use the design of the wing integral fuel tank proposed by Kusai, which makes the processing process simple.

Everything is to let the fighter fly as soon as possible! As long as the airframe meets the design requirements, and then flies to Iraq, with advanced fire control, it is the Nirvana rebirth of the J-7!

It has already entered winter, and although the climate in Chengdu at this time is not as cold as the winter in the north, it is also relatively cold, and the Sichuan Basin is relatively humid, wet and cold, and the people on the runway are full of fire in their hearts.

On the runway, a fighter plane, which is different from all other aircraft in China, is doing the final inspection before takeoff.

From the rear fuselage, it is exactly the same as the J-7, but the front is very different, the most eye-catching thing is the pointed head, and the air intake under the belly that seems to have a big mouth is even more different from other fighters, from the front, it looks a little like the F-16.

All the preparations were completed, and the test pilot Lei Qiang walked to the fighter.

Lei Qiang, although he is not yet thirty years old, has grown into an experienced pilot, has flown a variety of fighters, and has rich experience, and the older generation of test pilots Ge Wenyong and Jiang Deqiu and others are all test flying J-8 in Shenfei, Lei Qiang is fortunate to become the first test pilot of the Super -7.

However, compared to Lei Qiang, who has flown many sorties of J-7, he is full of confidence in the test flight, and this flight will not encounter too many problems.

Because, it's just a different shell, the inside of this fighter is still the same hydraulic work as the J-7, and the instrument is also the J-7's instrument taken directly from the production line.

Advanced avionics equipment can only be installed after the fuselage completes the test flight.

However, Tu Jida is full of confidence in this test flight, because the experimental data in the blowing tunnel proves that the flight quality of this aircraft will make a qualitative leap. And yesterday's slide experiment also fully illustrated this point.

The run experiment is divided into three steps: low-speed run, medium-speed run, and high-speed run.

Low-speed taxiing mainly depends on the flexibility of the aircraft to taxi on the ground, because there are requirements for the fighter's ability to taxi on the ground, such as turning radius, taxiing speed and other indicators. After the plane takes off and lands, the distance between the apron and the runway can be towed by the ground tractor, or the plane itself can taxi over, and the aircraft is a tricycle at this time. And the low-speed glide of the Super-7 can almost be omitted, because, the rear fuselage is exactly the same as that of the J-7, and these indicators are the same.

The speed range of the medium-speed taxiing experiment is about 60 to 100 km/h, and this taxiing experiment is mainly based on the aircraft's deviation correction ability. That is, the plane is on the runway, taxiing forward only by engine thrust. If the plane is biased to one side, it means that there are serious problems with the aircraft, such as the asymmetry of the aircraft's shape leading to aerodynamic asymmetry, such as the brake system of the landing gear, which was not the case with the Super-7 in yesterday's taxi.

Finally, high-speed taxiing, the final speed will reach the critical speed before take-off, through the high-speed taxiing experiment to determine that the aerodynamic force of the aircraft is indeed consistent with the design value, indicating that the aircraft can fly, an important step is to carry out the experiment of lifting the front wheel and then lowering it in the high-speed taxiing stage. This experiment of the Super-7 is very important, because the front fuselage has been redesigned, although there is no problem with the blowing tunnel, but after all, the nose is heavy, and whether it can fly or not has to pass this experiment, but it has also been carried out very successfully.

Lei Qiang stepped into the fighter, skillfully completed the preparations before takeoff, and started the turbojet engine behind.

Then, he released the brakes, and the super-7 was on the runway, spread its wings, slid away, and took off!
