35. Market Value
And the young people in the machinery factory were full of longing and admiration, and they looked at Wang Ye as if they were looking at idols.
In the next second, Wang Ye turned his head to look at Camp Chief Xu, and then said with a smile:
"Speaking of which, though."
"I participated in the internal mechanical part, but I have never seen an integrated fighter jet, let alone a test flight."
"So Camp Chief Xu, I don't know if I can go down and have a look?"
"I see the plane that landed, it should be our J-8, right?"
Regarding Wang Ye's request, Camp Chief Xu agreed without thinking:
"Absolutely!"
After all, the secrecy rules in this era are not so strict, and even when military families come to visit the troops, children can take a closer look at the fighter plane, go to the cockpit to sit down, and even take a photo.
Not to mention Wang Ye, the director of the machinery factory, since he can appear here, it shows that there is no problem with his background.
Moments later, the crowd was on the tarmac.
At this moment, it was only about ten minutes since the plane landed, and the ground crew was busy, looking at the neatly arranged fighters, Battalion Commander Xu introduced Wang Ye with pride in a proud tone:
"Presumably Wang Ye, you know better than me."
"J-8, the most advanced fighter in our country at present, is much stronger than J-7, and J-6 cannot be compared at all!"
"This is a serious heavy fighter, with a lot of bombs, fast flying, and high flight."
"It's a pity that our troops don't have much equipment at present, because it is still in the testing stage and has not yet been officially installed!"
"You can see it! It's pretty lucky. ”
"This is a weapon to protect our Chinese sky, the world's leading fighter!"
"If you join the army and can pass the assessment of the Air Force, maybe you can drive such a thing."
"There's no hope for me! Ay! ”
Perhaps it was because Wang Ye didn't react, so in the end, the target introduced by Battalion Commander Xu became the group of young people from the machinery factory behind, and when these young people heard Battalion Commander Xu's words, their faces were red with excitement and their necks were thick, and they looked like they wanted to join the army immediately.
At the same time, hearing Camp Chief Xu's words full of pride, Wang Ye felt extremely sad, because Wang Ye knew more!
The J-8 I saw in front of me was still the original model, the kind with air intake in the nose, not even a radar, and it belonged to the bottom of the second-generation aircraft, and in the world, the epoch-making product, the Soviet Su-27 has begun mass production, and it will soon be installed on a large scale, not to mention the American F-15, which has been officially installed for more than seven years!
What's even more terrifying is that when Huaxia's second-generation aircraft is still being tested and the third-generation aircraft in the world are gradually being equipped, the fourth-generation fighter F-22 in the United States has begun to be developed! (The original American generation is used here)
Therefore, in the next 30 years, countless air force fighters in China will fly fighter planes that are one generation or even two generations behind the enemy, and defend the motherland with their lives!
And Wang Ye still knows.
Twenty years from now, at some military forum in the country, there will be a post that has been circulating for decades.
The poster asked: In the face of the attack of the fourth-generation aircraft such as the F-22, if a large number of second-generation J-8 fighters are used, saturation sorties are used to consume the enemy's missiles, and the attack is carried out in a suicidal way, can the enemy invasion be blocked?
When this question is asked.
You can know.
How desperate were the military fans of that era!
In the face of the sci-fi fighter like the 'Bird of Prey', only despair remains!
Saturation attacks are the last thing they can come up with, and the last hope in their hearts!
And the final rupture of this hope was after the installation of the eight-winged angel 'Black Ribbon' J-20 in China, at that time, along with the public information, all military fans understood that in the face of this kind of fighter, how many second-generation aircraft are useless!
At that moment, this post became a joke, but everyone knows how sad it was in those years!
Then, no one knew how difficult those years were for an aeronautical engineer like Wang Ye!
"I'm telling you, it's not easy to be a pilot......"
Camp Chief Xu's voice echoed in his ears, and Wang Ye looked at the old guys in front of him who would only be taken out for New Year's greetings forty years later, and felt that his nose was very sour.
From backward to advanced, Huaxia has gone through 40 years!
And in the past 40 years, because of the replenishment of military strength, they have suffered so many grievances, but they can only swallow it in their stomachs, condemn and protest 10,000 times, it is not as good as a strategic bomber to take off at once, don't the leaders understand this truth?
Absolutely! However, the barrel of the gun is not hard, there is no way!
Come to think of it.
Wang Ye no longer had the interest of revisiting his hometown, and squeezed out a smile and said:
"It's not early, and the fighter plane is going to take off again, why don't we go to dinner?"
Hearing Wang Ye say this, Camp Chief Xu, who was very interested in telling a few young people, said with a smile:
"Good! Let's go! ”
The ingredients for lunch are naturally the ones pulled by the liberation truck, although the meat is average to everyone, it is just a little bit, all of them are potato stews, and the soldiers still eat very sweet, seeing this scene, Wang Ye is even more panicked, because the country has no money, and now the army can only be fed to the fullest, compared with the military exercises and training in later generations, and the cooking class has to fry a sugar color, there is a world of difference!
A meal is tasteless.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, in the warm farewell, everyone in the machinery factory left the station.
It was almost five o'clock when the two cars finally returned to the machine shop.
Wang Ye, who was extremely heavy, returned to his office after getting out of the car, sat on the chair and was silent for a moment, took out the tools for mechanical drawing, and prepared to start work.
Sitting on the chair, Wang Ye gathered his mind and stopped thinking about the things just now.
"I really didn't expect that mechanical drawing would start again?"
"We still have to hurry up and develop computers!"
Looking at a complete set of tools for drawing in front of the machinery factory, as well as the drawing paper spread out, I couldn't help but scratch my head with a wry smile, after more than 20 years, the drawing basically relies on the computer, and there are fewer and fewer hand-drawn, and now I pick up these tools, how much is still a little uncomfortable!
After muttering a few words, Wang Ye began to get busy.
Of course, the drawing was not good at first, and several pieces of drawing paper were scrapped, but as I became familiar with the tools, the feeling of the past gradually returned, and the drawings began to become more and more organized.
And what Wang Ye painted was a steel tube rocket.
Although the gas canister is powerful, the disadvantage is very obvious, that is, the firing range is too short, if fired at the same level, the firing range will not exceed two kilometers.
Therefore, Wang Ye chose a steel tube rocket with a caliber of 120 mm and a range of 15 kilometers even if an earthen propellant is used, as the second product of the machinery factory, after all, in Africa, this range can already be called a strategic-level weapon.
In the era before Wang Ye's rebirth, this weapon had already achieved great results in Africa and Central Asia, which was enough to show its market value.
