Chapter 535 The time limit is fifteen days
Improving missiles is something that Long Yun can't do on his own.
Although after the fast-paced explanation just now, he has already given a detailed introduction to the improvement plan that has been verified by theoretical calculations and is expected to greatly improve the hit rate of the R-27P/R-27EP missile, but after all, he does not know much about the technical context of Soviet missile weapon design and the R&D, testing, and production system, so he cannot give any advice in this regard.
Therefore, he himself could not answer the question of how well this program was being implemented and when it would give results, but could only pin his hopes on the close cooperation between the Pennant and the Avtomatika design bureau.
"So, Andrey, is this the case for the time being? ――If you still have any questions, please feel free to bring them up and let's discuss them. ”
After writing the last calculation formula on the whiteboard, Long Yun buckled the cap of the fountain pen and looked at the experts in front of him with an inquiring eye. Although these attentive listeners are all technical experts in their respective fields, today they are dedicated to learning the improved technology of anti-radiation guidance, in other words, they can be regarded as his "students" of Long Yun.
"You, your solution is wonderful, Comrade Major General!"
After a few seconds of silence, a skinny specialist from "Avtomatika" could not help but speak, "Comrade Ushakov, let's modify the receiver program according to Comrade Rezenov's scheme, you assign us two computers, and we will do it right away?" Okay -- then, Comrade Major General, I estimate that we will be able to give the preliminary results of the calculations this afternoon, and I hope that you will give you some more analysis and guidance at that time. ”
"Okay, that's no problem! Thank you for your hard work. Now the battle on the front line is in full swing. I hope we can complete this improvement project as much as possible. ”
"Ahh Of course! ”
After listening to Viktor's explanation, Andrei Ushakov, who was standing on the side, although he did not understand everything, he was personally not good at radar homing heads; But seeing that the "Avtomatika" experts present were all happy, I knew that the explanation of this old friend was the key to finding the problem:
"From now on, we are still in accordance with the organizational principle of 'one qiē for victory', and the people of the 'pennant' are also concentrated on the site, and after the improvement of the homing head and the ballistic calculation module are completed, we will immediately build the first batch of test prototypes, and strive to send them to the shooting range for target testing within this week! Oh. Of course, five days is a very tense time, but the lads on the front line are fighting bloodily, and those of us who sit in the office and tinker with the circuit can't drag our feet and be soft eggs! ”
"Ulla! That's it, Comrade Major General! ”
With Ushakov's solemn and humorous words of encouragement, the scene erupted into a burst of cheers, and these technical experts in white coats or overalls dispersed separately and entered into a tense busyness according to the workflow formulated by Long Yun just now.
In the current period of the Great War, the coordination between the design bureaus of different weapons and equipment is also closer than usual. The "pennants" for the development of air-to-air missiles already included people sent by the "Avtomatika" design bureau, and now new technical forces have been added. It is conceivable that the progress of research and development will be much shorter than the long time of several years in peacetime.
But even if that's it......
After everyone dispersed, he walked up to Ushakov to talk, and Long Yun was also a little apprehensive about the time limit he had just proposed.
Of course, as a front-line combatant, I must hope that the missiles will come as quickly as possible, but in just a few days, can I really complete these complicated tasks?
"Andre, this improvement work is not easy, of course, it would be nice to be able to do it as much as possible. - But it's only five days, can this work? ”
"It's an extreme goal, Victor! As for whether it can be completed, I have to summarize it with the person in charge of the R&D team before I can give a specific time frame for completion. ”
Handing his old friend a glass of lemonade beside him, Ushakov thought seriously with a serious expression, but there was a look of hope between his eyebrows, and he called Long Yun to the other end of the corridor outside the door of the real room, "In the previous combat meeting, you and I both know the shape of the front line, especially in the Caucasus, and the air pressure of the Americans does not allow us to delay for too long, does it?" As for my current plan, if the target test goes smoothly and there are no mistakes at the principle level, then the improved design of the R-27P and EP will be basically completed in a week, and at the same time, the supporting enterprises will be arranged in advance to put into production the improved modules -- even so, it will be half a month later when the front-line troops get a sufficient number of improved missiles. Half a month, Victor, how much will happen in such a long time? ”
"Oh...... I've thought about this before. ”
Hearing Ushakov's anxious quick words, Long Yun frowned and nodded slightly, he knew that what this old friend said was right.
Half a month, of course, is not a long time in peacetime, but it is a completely different concept in wartime. In the last fifteen days, the Soviet VVS and PVO lost 150 fighters in the Caucasus theater of operations, and now it is another fifteen days.
Although for the huge military production capacity of the Soviet wartime system, it is not difficult to produce 150 MiG-29s, or even larger and more complex Su-27s. But the loss of 150 fighters, which means the loss of the precious lives of dozens of pilots, is no joke in training a qualified pilot for combat than it is to build one.
Of course, even if the situation is urgent, the scientific research team led by Ushakov will not be able to produce results overnight.
Then in the next half a month, the crisis in the Caucasus will still need him Long Yun, or Viktor Rezenov, to find a way for the time being.
Thinking of the cold battle damage figures he saw at the previous battle meeting, Long Yun stood in place and didn't speak immediately, but a faint hint of cold light and killing intent gradually appeared in his eyes; After a moment of silence, he put his hand on Ushakov's shoulder, as if to comfort his old friend and make a vow to himself:
"Andrey, you don't have to worry, just get the missile thing right. As for the half a month, let's follow the strategy at our meeting. ”
"Good, good ......"
Hearing Viktor's muffled words, Ushakov looked up at his old friend's face, but unconsciously gasped.
The Victor in front of him, although he looks as usual, has a terrifying expression, eyes like electricity, and is completely different from his usual easy-going and friendly appearance, just like a murderer!
Clearly able to feel the terrifying aura emanating from the body of this number one ace, Ushakov couldn't help but think, probably only an immortal veteran who has fought a hundred battles and made many achievements in battles would have such a murderous wisp of anger? No wonder everyone says that this guy Victor is a death-like being; Looking at this situation, I am afraid that any NATO pilot who encounters him will fall into a terrible nightmare of endless death, and it is difficult to have any future other than death and ejection.
Well, it's a great blessing to be friends with this kind of person, not an enemy. (To be continued......)
