Chapter 720: Su-27's performance

Viktor Pugachev, the young Sukhoi test pilot, looked at the descending horizon on both sides with peace of mind. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Pugachev wanted to be a pilot from an early age, and after graduating from secondary school, he was admitted to the Yeysk Aviation School. In '68, Pugachev flew the La-29 jet for the first time into the blue sky. In the same year, the aviation school set up a Su-7β aircraft training group. After that, Pugachev worked here as a flight instructor.

It was not until 73 that Pugachev submitted an application to the School of Test Pilots of the Ministry of Aviation Industry. After several years of waiting, in 77, he finally waited for the acceptance letter of the test pilot school. In 80, Pugachev became an honorable test pilot, after which Pugachev was transferred to the Sukhoi Design Bureau. In history, Pugachev was only appointed as the main test pilot of the Su-27 aircraft project in 82 years, and he flew the T10-15 aircraft test, thus beginning his brilliant life.

But now, the Sukhoi project is progressing rapidly, and Pugachev, having entered the Sukhoi Design Bureau, began to test fly the T-10! Now his flight time on the Su-27 has exceeded 1500 hours! The Su-27 fighter is as familiar as his body. Now, he is testing the Su-27K, that is, the carrier-based version of the Su-27, and this time he is going to perform at the Moscow Air Show, and the Sukhoi Design Bureau sent him over.

Since it is here, it is necessary to give full play to the performance of the Su-27! Pugachev was confident.

The fighter plane did not disappear from everyone's sight, and just after takeoff, the plane made three turns and realigned with the runway.

What's going on? Is it going to land? No, if you land, you have to open the landing gear! Günter Ral suddenly shook in his heart, these crazy Soviets are not going to perform a low-altitude big table speed pass, right?

Just when he thought of this possibility, the Soviet fighters had already begun to pass through! From a distance, it looks as if it is attached to the ground, and the height is no more than 5 meters! This is an absolute crazy guy!

All of them, their mouths were open and round, and their scalps were numb.

Ultra-low altitude flight is a skill that every pilot dreams of, not only the pursuit of excitement, can do the limit of ultra-low altitude is often good technology, good mental quality, and the aircraft must also be good, otherwise it can only be a plane crash. And before that, the lowest clearance that the Americans could do was also about 20 meters, while the Soviets were pressed down to 5 meters!

The plane flew out of everyone's sight, and then, at the end, pulled up again and climbed high, just this one action, let everyone cheer, so exciting!

Soon, that plane was back! It was in their sight that they saw that the plane began to pull the angle of attack, which was getting bigger and bigger, and it was incredibly 90 degrees!

No, this angle of attack is still increasing, it has already exceeded 90 degrees, and now the nose is backward and the tail is forward! In this case, their plane, in fact, has not yet stalled and crashed!

In the movie, it's all real, the Soviets didn't play stunts in the studio, but in the sky!

On the ground, everyone was shocked, God, is this an airplane? It's an alien flying object!

Even the military blind know that the fighter in this situation is simply impossible!

"Cobra, cobra!" A reporter called out, this action is too much like a cobra!

In the air, Pugachev, who was strangled by overload, was at this time engrossed in operating the fighter, at the beginning, after General Andrei pulled a large angle of attack on the simulator, at first the Sukhoi Design Bureau did not pay attention, but later, when Pugachev made a test flight in the sky, the angle of attack exceeded ninety degrees!

At that time, Simonov immediately ordered Pugachev to parachute, but Pugachev did not, at an altitude of 800 meters, Pugachev changed it, and after that, he discovered the unique high angle of attack performance of the Su-27, and invented this cool set of maneuvers, called the Cobra maneuver, which is based on appearance.

There are also those who want to call the Pujiao Chov Cobra Maneuver, but Pugachev absolutely disagrees, if you want to call it, you have to call the Andrei Cobra Maneuver, after all, this is a move that General Andrey first made on the simulator!

No matter what the name is, in short, when this action flies, the people below are stunned, they have forgotten the unpleasantness of the crash of the United States just now, and are concentrating on enjoying the performance in the air.

The cameras of the reporters are constantly shooting at the sky, and many people's minds are already thinking about the draft, and the most significant title of the Moscow Air Show special article is called Cobra Maneuver!

The next performance is still exciting, with six consecutive death rings, barrel rolling, tail rushing......

If you haven't seen the air show, you are dazzled at this time, watching the fighters in the sky keep flipping, climbing, diving, and moving one by one, which is very enjoyable! And the insiders, through these maneuvers, analyze the performance of the fighter, the climb rate, the instantaneous hovering performance, the stable hovering performance, etc., and the data they get in their minds make them extremely surprised, the maneuverability of this fighter is overwhelming the F-15 in all aspects!

Even if you are not flying an ace pilot, an ordinary pilot, if you fly this kind of fighter to fight with your own side, you are full of advantages! In particular, the Soviets have made more progress in the development of large off-axis combat bombs, and their own air force will have no chance of winning against the Soviets at all!

The first to come to this conclusion was Gunter Lahr, as an ace pilot during World War II, he had a keen instinct for air combat, and in order to deal with the rolling armor torrent of the Soviets, NATO's countermeasure was to strike from the air, using air power to save its own disadvantage. However, it now seems that it is impossible for our own air force to effectively seize air supremacy.

This air show is a bright sword of the Soviet Union! The Soviets were telling Western Europe that if war broke out, the Soviets were completely sure that they would win with absolute superiority!

Until the fighter plane landed and let go of the parachute, all the spectators were still fascinated and couldn't help themselves.

"The expressions of these Westerners are quite good." Andrei stood in the tower and said: "Our air show is to show the West our aerospace achievements, and to exert invisible pressure on them, under pressure, some Western Europeans will change their previous concepts and attitudes." I think that among these audiences, Günter Ral is a breakthrough, and the KGB can focus on this guy, maybe they can win him over, so that our problems in Germany can be easily solved.
