Two days later, the clashes were in the headlines.

"The conflict over the South China Sea has reappeared, and the RC-135W has retreated! 》

"Hero Pilot Hit RC-135W Hard, Returned Home Safely"

Why was an accident hyped up as a national security issue? National self-confidence should not come from here"

"The US plane was hit, and the US severely condemned the perpetrators"

Overreacting? Challenges to freedom of flight should not be encouraged"

"In the case of another plane collision accident over the South China Sea, China solemnly declares that the US side respects the territorial airspace of other countries"

......

Even if you don't look at the content, you can easily see the position of each media just from the headline, many of which are crying for the master, but more are raising their eyebrows.

For many years, we have hardly achieved any superiority in the air.

Other people's reconnaissance planes can come and go whenever they want.

Either it can't be found, and even if it does, there is no countermeasure.

The only conflict also cost us a good pilot.

What a helpless reality.

In addition, at this time, the United States returned from a great victory in the Iraq War, and their air force can almost be said to be sharp.

But it was in this situation that we achieved a victory by "non-military" means.

This is obviously extremely exciting.

Therefore, as soon as the news spread, the country was jubilant.

And in the Western University of Technology, the situation is the same.

In the evening, after Chen Nian and Li Xiang finished their studies, they came to the cafeteria to eat according to their daily plan, and the classmates around them were already discussing it enthusiastically.

"This time it was really comfortable, I heard that the RC-135 had an engine scrapped, and it almost didn't fly back to Kadena, and the second half of the altitude fell directly to 1500 meters, and all the fuel was empty."

"It's pretty powerful, the South China Sea scalpel, this is ......."

"What a South China Sea scalpel, don't mess with names. The Su-27 is a double vertical tail, they can make a scalpel, but our eighth master can't do it, and the vertical tail can fly back if it is damaged, which can be said to be a miracle. ”

"Then it's okay if you want to say it's a miracle, but I think it's still the pilot's problem, I read the news that the steering of the eighth master has completely failed, and in the end it turned around by rolling sideways and landed on the beach."

"How difficult this kind of operation is, if you know the pilot who flies the fighter, just ask us."

"Even if it's an error of a few tenths of a second, this plane will be scrapped."

"Don't say it, the pilot is awesome!"

"That's awesome!"

"The new flight controller is also good, it is said that after the 81194 accident, the new flight controller was updated last year, I didn't expect to use the ...... so soon"

"That shows that there is still a lot of foresight on the top......"

However, just as everyone was happily discussing the pilot's technology and the latest flight control system, a slightly harsh voice suddenly came:

"Vision? What is the vision? Really far-sighted, will postpone the J-10 service? Is it really far-sighted, will you know that your engine is not good, and you still want to stop the introduction of AL-31FN? ”

"Hehe, this collision is also a big luck, the tail is broken, and it can still fly back, what a miracle, you can say it."

"Skills are inferior to others, is it difficult to admit this? If you have to self-orgasm and self-hypnotize here, when someone's tomahawk flies over your head, if it doesn't kill you, do you have to brag about your escape? ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the faces of the few people sitting around to eat became ugly.

Everyone looked at the person who spoke, and Chen Nian saw that it was Zhang Rui, who he hadn't seen for a long time.

After the last time Sinas robbed people, Zhang Rui was punished as an "activist" in the school, and then it stopped for a long time.

Chen Nian thought that he had just changed his ways to study after being educated by the organization, but now that he heard it, it didn't seem to be the case at all!

Not only did he not change his thinking, but his resentment became heavier.

Sure enough, although the Western University of Technology has done a good job in ideological construction, it still has some experience in dealing with this kind of problem.....

Chen Nian sighed secretly, he didn't plan to have a war of words with Zhang Rui, he just buried his head in eating his own food.

But he didn't speak, and the others who couldn't listen anymore did.

"Zhang Rui, your speech is too ugly, isn't it? Yes, we are not as good as others, but what is wrong with not being as good as people? ”

"Although there is indeed a gap now, we are also trying to catch up, isn't it just to go to this school to catch up with them one day?"

"Far from it, at least we have won, at least our pilots are good, do you think they are all the same as you, enjoying the benefits given to you by the state, and they are here at every turn to sing and smear, brainlessly touting the Yankees?"

Hearing this, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Rui's mouth.

"Yes, yes, we won, we won."

"Using a fighter jet that is decades behind the times, knocking out someone's reconnaissance and breaking an engine, and almost crashing yourself, this is a win."

"If that's how you define winning, then I'm not much better."

"It's ridiculous, I know how big the gap is, I don't hurry to reflect on what the problem is, but I comfort myself here, just like you, you still think you are the hope of China Express Airlines?"

"We're not, are you? Let's reflect, have you reflected? ”

"Of course I reflected."

Zhang Rui seemed to have guessed that the other party would ask this, he snorted and said:

"The reason why the development of domestic aviation is so weak is nothing more than a problem of the system."

"The current state-owned enterprise-led system is simply impossible to stimulate the creativity of scientific researchers, like the United States, where people are dominated by commercial companies, and the state is only responsible for issuing contract orders.

"In addition, the underdevelopment of basic science and technology is also an important reason, what do we have now? Not to mention other fields, let's talk about the aviation field, how many high-precision lathes are there? How many wind tunnels are there? Is there advanced welding equipment? Even the hot isostatic pressing equipment was purchased recently, and I don't know when it will arrive! ”

"Okay, even if I put all this stuff aside and just talk about the parts that are directly related to fighter jets, do you know how many generations behind us are in terms of engine design concepts? Do you know what engine the so-called WS-10 is aimed at? CMF-56-3！ Civilian engines! Civilian engines from decades ago! ”

"With such technology, those officials still have the ability to stop the introduction of AL-31FN, and they are really bold enough."

"If you miss this opportunity, if you want to ask someone for it in the future, they won't necessarily give it."

"Now, do you still think we won? Hehe, win a fart. ”

When the words fell, Zhang Rui turned his head and left, and everyone at the table fell silent without exception.

At the beginning, everyone was a little indignant when they heard that he had belittled the domestic aviation industry as worthless.

But as he counted our weaknesses one by one, the agitated emotions suddenly cooled down.

What he said...... It's true.

At least, putting aside the so-called "system", the gap he talked about is the real gap.

Infrastructure, design concepts, even materials, data, experience, which one of us is not decades behind?

In that case, are we really in a position to rejoice over what is happening in the South China Sea?

Could it be that in the eyes of our opponents, our behavior is ...... Clown?

No one spoke, and the same thought came to everyone's mind:

How long will it take for such a gap to be smoothed out?

Or maybe it will never be erased?

Looking at everyone's lost expressions, Chen Nian, who was sitting and eating, still didn't speak.

He knew that the faith of these people could never be destroyed so easily.

Because, it is this group of people, although they have experienced countless setbacks and blows, but still 20 years later, they have supported a piece of the sky in China.

What's more, short-term losses can quickly pass.

On the side of 601, all the technical preparations have been completed, and it will not be long before this plane will crush all the voices of doubt.

Soon, it will be the day when the J-22 will officially transfer to the manufacturing process of the technical verification machine......
