Soon, the prototype 04 was towed back to the tarmac by a tractor.

The crowd had been waiting here for a long time.

Chang Haonan stepped forward, raised his head and touched the plane's air intake.

I don't know if it's his hallucination, although it has been on the ground for a while, the surface of the skin still seems to retain the heat generated by the previous supersonic flight.

It's not hot, it's just warm.

Just like how he felt inside at this time.

Compared with Yang Fenghata and He Ming and others in the crowd next to him, Chang Haonan has only been in contact with the 83 Project for a few months, and it is difficult to say that his feelings for this aircraft are deeper than others.

But correspondingly, he knows too many regrets that others don't know, and too many unhappiness that only he has experienced.

It's hard to put into words.

As an aircraft model, the J-8-3's position in the Huaxia Air Force may not be very important.

But as an aeronautical project, it can be a symbol.

In particular, the turbojet 14, which is its standard power, has successfully passed the verification, which can be called a breakthrough in the field of aviation power from scratch.

For the first time, Huaxia has a completely own aero engine!

From the corner of his eye, Chang Haonan noticed that Yan Zhongzhong went around the back half of the plane along the wings, and gently kissed the skin between the main wing and the horizontal tail while most people's attention was focused on the slowly opening cockpit canopy.

That happened to be the position on the body where the two Turbojet-14s were fixed.

The ground crew, who had arrived from the other side, placed a boarding ladder on the left-hand side of the cabin.

Although the test flight subjects just now were very extreme, in fact, there was no big overload action arranged throughout the whole process, so Fu Guoxiang did not have much pressure on his body, and he was able to drill out of the cabin and go down to the ground with light movements.

For an old fly like him, it is naturally impossible for him to have weak legs after landing like Chang Haonan.

In addition to the routine welcome to the pilots, such as flowers and applause, the leader's speech is naturally indispensable on an occasion like today.

The crowd that had just dispersed around the plane gradually gathered.

A specially arranged scene in front of the camera ended quickly.

But no one had the intention of scattering.

Because everyone knows that in the current context, there are some words that cannot be transferred to the scene.

So after the camera leaves, it's the real content of the speech.

"The '83 project is a good start, and it comes at a good time. I said before, even if you are pants, you have to do it, you did a good job, you didn't let us be pants, and I have already heard from the comrades in charge of the negotiations on Project No. 11, saying that their negotiation process has also been favorably influenced by you. ”

"Relying on others will not work after all, the Soviet Union will not work, and neither will the United States, you can only rely on yourself."

"Ten years ago, in '86, we also took the J-8 and spent $500 million to cooperate with the United States."

"Later, we sent two planes over, and the money was invested in more than 200 million US dollars, but as a result, people imposed sanctions on our planes, and the money was not returned to us."

Speaking of which, the voice in the autumn wind seems to be a little bleak:

"At that time, what I said to Comrade Zong Tang was that we must take revenge on this!"

"But it's hard to say this, or frankly, we don't dare to say it yet, so the external statement has become, we have to fight for this breath."

"But we must know in our own hearts that this is revenge, not only the revenge of Project 82, but also the revenge of the Galaxy incident, and the revenge of the two aircraft carrier battle groups!"

"Even if you don't say it, we Huaxia people must keep it in mind!"

"This model should be promoted, and it should be cheered up by the people of the whole country. Comrade Yang Fenghata applied before, saying that he wanted the J-8-3 to make an appearance at next month's air show, and this requirement should be no problem from the policy point of view, of course, whether the technology is mature or not, it is still up to your aviation industry department to judge for itself. ”

“……”

In every sense, the first test flight of the No. 04 prototype after its relaunch was a complete success.

As for participating in the first Xiangzhou Air Show, it was naturally decided.

Of course, it is not easy to change the exhibition plan at short notice, after all, this is the first time, and the airshow organizers lack experience in dealing with such unexpected situations.

As a result, Chang Haonan, who had finally come to an end in the engine improvement work, was dragged to participate in the work coordination meeting that followed.

But for him, this can be regarded as a kind of adjustment in life.

In his previous life, he was preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, and it was naturally impossible for him to run to the southernmost part of the motherland in the dark every day, and he missed the first Xiangzhou Air Show of great commemorative significance.

In this era of media consultation, not being able to be there means seeing only a limited number of photos and images in the newspapers and on television.

Even after entering the Internet era, Chang Haonan was still able to find very limited information when he searched for the 1996 air show.

This has become a small regret for him.

But this time, he was not only present in person, but even as a staff member of the exhibitor.

How to put it, it's a bit like the feeling of a fan being reborn and going back to the past to marry his idol.

"The air show has doubled the area allocated to us, so the J-8IIM, which was previously arranged to participate in the exhibition, can be displayed on the ground with the J-8-3."

While introducing the situation, Yang Bonghata took out the form from the side and put it on the platform of the projector.

Above is the order of the air show for different exhibitors.

"The air show, because the air show is only six days in total, and the weather in the last two days is not very good, so the arrangement is very intensive, and there is really no extra time for us, but the exhibitor said that it can be arranged for us on the afternoon of the opening day, which is the first in the audience."

"I look at this performance sequence, behind us is the J-7MG of the 611 Institute, and the third one is the Sukhoi's Su-27 and Su-30 twin machine performances."

An idea was made across the table:

"Is it possible to consider postponing the Sukhoi company's performance to the next day, and then bring the Golden Dream aerobatic team to the front?"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly came alive.

Obviously, there are many people who agree, or at least agree with this plan in their hearts.

No matter what you say, the J-8-3 cannot get out of the trap of the overall design of the second-generation aircraft, and there is only one aircraft, which can only perform as a single aircraft.

Judging from the timing of the exhibitors, the flight shows of the two Flankers may be better in terms of time and excitement.

If the two performances are scheduled on the same day, it is likely that the latter will take away all the limelight of the day.

Relatively speaking, the Golden Dream aerobatic performance team is just a folk performance team using 4 propeller aerobatic aircraft, no matter how wonderful the performance is, it is impossible to compete with the J-8-3 and J-7MG in nature.

But......

Do you really want to do this?
