Chapter 527: Fly in style
The wide bubble cockpit, the space has been significantly improved compared with other Soviet aircraft in the past, and at the same time, the seats have also been raised, so that the pilot has a better view, these are all changes that absorb the experience of the F-15, after all, the complete acquisition of the F-15 has exposed the Soviet aircraft designers to the advanced Western fighter design and manufacturing technology, and the change is inevitable.

At the same time, it has incorporated many of the Soviet's own features, such as the light blue instrument panel in the front, which is spotless, and the placement of various instruments is almost exactly the same as the original.
Andre pulls the lever and feels the power of this surging third uncle, the advantage of a fighter with a thrust-to-weight ratio of more than 1 is that after taking off, it can climb vertically effortlessly!
The control is very similar to the J-11, after all, these are all digital fly-by-wire fighters, just when Andre flexibly pulled the head of the machine and began to climb up, the order of the ground commander came from the headset: "General Andrei, General Andrei, please make three turns and return immediately." ”
"Roger." Andrei replied over the radio.
Just took off and let yourself go back? Looking at the fuel storage in the plane, it was possible to fly at a high intensity for about five minutes, so Andrei made a dashing roll while turning.
The extremely agile handling, excellent aerodynamic layout, high-thrust turbofan engine, coupled with fly-by-wire control, make this huge fighter more agile than the MiG-29!
Moreover, just a split second of operation, Andrei knew that the instantaneous hovering performance of this fighter was quite good, and in air combat, this meant that it was possible to aim the nose of the aircraft at the enemy more quickly, and then launch its own missile!
That's what pilots need!
Soon, he entered the second turn, although Andrei only went around the airport, he did not give up this opportunity, and made one maneuver after another, and even, in the eyes of everyone, he saw Andre pull up the fighter plane and climb straight up vertically!
At this time, Pugachev, who was deprived of a flight suit by Andrei, also walked out and watched Andrei's performance on the flight field, his heart was full of admiration.
You know, since the Su-27 was finalized, only these test pilots have flown it! And now, in addition to the last time he flew the simulator, today is the first time that General Andrei has flown such a fighter! Ordinary pilots, in order to modify a new fighter, must go through solid theoretical study, simulator flight simulation, and finally with the help of instructors, fly on the two-seater trainer type for some time before they can fly solo.
And what about General Andrei? It's literally made to fly! Now Andre is completely integrated with the fighter and has reached the highest level of man-machine integration! If he hadn't known that it was General Andrei inside, he would never have believed it! You know, even the most outstanding Pugachev seems to have a gap with the smooth flying Andrey in the sky!
For example, now this simple tail rush action is a test of the pilot's control, General Andrei pulled the fighter almost to a height of 1,000 meters, and then the fighter was flattened, just this action, it seems simple, but it is a comprehensive grasp of the fighter and the perception of the surrounding situation are integrated.
Strong, no wonder when he drove the MiG-25, he beat the Americans all over the ground!
How did he know that Andre in the air, when he was leveling, just let go of the operating stick!
Here's where fly-by-wire comes in! No matter what attitude the plane is in, if you don't want to play anymore and are stunned by the constant rotation of the fighter, then you only need to do one thing, let go of the operating stick, and the fighter will automatically level out!
Then, Andrei pushed the lever, and the fighter began to dive downward, and the outline of the earth was getting closer and closer.
On the ground, everyone's hearts were tense, especially Simonov, who begged General Andrei countless times not to play anymore, and his heart couldn't stand it if he continued to play like this! However, his heart was also full of curiosity, General Andrei, could it be that he was born to fly? The last time I flew the simulator, this time I flew the real machine, it was so smooth, I didn't need to learn it at all!
"Andrei, you're still young." Ustinov on the side was also sighing: "This is the advantage of being young, if I were twenty years younger, I would really want to go up and fly twice." ”
Ustinov attracted the same emotion from the commander of the Air Defense Forces next to him, when he flew, where was the technology of the current fighter! It's a real pleasure to fly now!
Finally, the fighter made three turns and slid onto the runway, and the landing attitude was extremely stable, and even the speed brake on its back was opened at the right time.
How did General Andrei know that this fighter still has a speed brake? I didn't have a plane before! Yes, it must have been learned from American F-15 fighters! Simonov thought in his heart.
"General Andrey, how are you feeling?" Finally, the fighter plane stopped, the cockpit canopy opened, and Andrei, who climbed down the ladder, heard Simonov's question on the side.
This sentence has a profound meaning, and Andrei can hear Simonov's dissatisfaction and worry.
"Yes, the various performances of this fighter far surpass that of the American F-15, and I believe that the Su-27 fighter will be able to replace other backward fighters and take on the task of guarding our airspace." Andrei said.
There was a round of applause.
The ceremony of launching the new fighter was full of surprise, after which Simonov welcomed everyone into the conference room for the next report.
"All kinds of processing equipment in Komsomolsk have been improved, and now we can use new technologies to produce our Su-27 fighters, and when it is normal, it should be able to reach the scale of an annual output of one hundred, and the Irkutsk aircraft factory has also begun to improve its equipment, and it is expected that by the end of next year, it will be able to produce Su-27 series fighters, and at the same time, the modification of our Su-27 should also be able to complete the finalization, so we plan to hand over the single-seat Su-27 to Komsomolsk for production, Various modifications were handed over to the Irkutsk aircraft plant for production. "At the same time, we are also conducting a visit to the Novosibirsk manufacturing plant to assess its ability to convert to the production of Su-27s," Simonov said. ”
"What modifications are there for our Su-27?" Andrei asked.
"Now the main thing is to design the two-seater Su-27UB, and our front-line pilots may not all reach the level of the general, and they must be trained to fly by a trainer aircraft." Simonov said: "On the basis of the two-seater type, we plan to improve professional fighter-bombers, as well as carrier-based fighters that take off and land on aircraft carriers. (To be continued.) )
