Chapter 380: Since I'm here, stay and help
June 1.
A Boeing 707 landed on the runway of Factory 320, and the well-dressed hook-nosed men stepped off the plane.
"Everyone, welcome to the East." Qin Feng looked at those who walked down: "Although what you have done to us recently is a little inauthentic, we still have a tolerant attitude, we have to look forward, we believe that only cooperation can be a win-win situation." ”
"Yes, Mr. Qin, with our active efforts, the peace model project has finally come to an end." "This shows that any disagreement can be resolved through negotiations, and by the way, let me introduce you to Mr. Ob Bryan, the head of our Grumman company, and this is Mr. Hades, and it was he who went back and forth this time to bring the peace model project to an end," Pelehaq said. ”
Grumman has a lot of people, after all, they are very concerned about the stealth fighter that appeared in Factory 320, and they hope that the technology of this fighter can fall into their hands as soon as possible. Now, everything that should be returned to the East has been given, and they are waiting for the Easterners to fulfill their promises.
"Thank you." Qin Feng pointed to the people around him and introduced: "This is Lu Lao, the chief designer of our domestic Jian-11 fighter, and some of you should know him." ”
"Mr. Lu, it's a pleasure to meet you." Brian walked up and shook hands with Lu Lao: "The J-11 fighter developed by your side is improved from the foundation of the strong six, and it can be improved to the same as our Tomcat, which can be regarded as the same goal." ”
This guy came up and began to beat people, the meaning is very clear: we still know the origin of J-11, if you don't cooperate, let's turn over old accounts at any time!
"Of course, there are only so many layouts of fighters, and twin-engine and double-hanging tails have also become popular since the MiG-25." Lu Lao is neither humble nor arrogant.
What kind of imitation, we will never admit it, what's wrong with the appearance, aren't you plagiarism?
At the beginning, the fighters were all single vertical tails, only the MiG-25 of Lao Maozi, because they had to fly to an altitude of 30,000 meters, for fear that the lateral stability of the single vertical tail was not good enough, so they changed to double vertical tails, and then they became popular, and the F-14, F-15, MiG-29 and Su-27 all played like this.
"yes, it's just like a car, it's just four wheels and a few sofas." Qin Feng echoed on the side: "Mr. Brian, what do you say? ”
Brian could only nod: "That's right." ”
The car was invented by Mercedes-Benz, and Mercedes-Benz did not pursue other car manufacturers for infringement, and demanded that they pay patent fees to Mercedes-Benz if they had four wheels and a few large sofas.
"Mr. Qin, can we first go and see the prototype of your advanced stealth modification?" Hades was a little impatient.
"What mockup?" Qin Feng was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Hades, why don't we know?" ”
All the Americans were petrified all at once, what do you say? No? The things were returned to you, and you didn't admit it? Believe it or not, let's regret it halfway?
When the J-82 went to the United States, it was dismantled and directly used a transport plane to get it, but when it came back, it was by boat, and the steamer had to swing at sea for a month.
"Old Lu, have we made a prototype?" Qin Feng looked at Lu Lao.
Lu Lao nodded.
The Americans were finally relieved, it seemed that Qin Feng didn't know, it wasn't him deliberately pretending, which was acceptable.
"Mr. Qin, we have now developed to the stage of wooden prototypes, although this project is highly confidential, but since American friends want to see it, then we can take them to see it."
"What, wooden prototypes?" Hades quit on the spot, he thought it was a prototype that could fly, but he didn't expect it to be a wooden?
"That's right, it's a wooden prototype, and in the development phase of the fighter, we will build a wooden prototype for verification, is there anything strange about that?" Lu Lao asked: "Besides, we only made the first flight of the J-11 last year, and we started to change the model this year, and it is already very good to be able to build a wooden prototype!" ”
"Yes, we can't compare with the United States, the United States has a very short time to build fighter jets, by the way, how long did it take for your Grumman company to develop the Tomcat fighter back then?" Qin Feng asked on the side.
The development of the Tomcat fighter did not take long, the development began at the end of 1967, the prototype completed its first flight on December 21, 1970, and was delivered in May 1972. In the development of third-generation aircraft, the Americans can use almost four or five years, demonstrating their strong industrial strength.
However, this does not mean that a prototype can be built in a year, and it would be good for the Orientals to build a wooden prototype in such a short time!
However, if it is just a prototype of wood, will it ......
"Did you build this wooden prototype casually?"
"Of course not!" Lu Lao's eyes were full of disdain: "You are all experts in the field of fighter development, how can you not know how to carry out scientific research and development work?" Before we build a wooden prototype, we need to go through a lot of wind tunnel testing to determine whether the shape of the aircraft meets the needs. Especially ......"
When he said this, Lu Lao paused and looked at Qin Feng with inquiry in his eyes.
"Our American friends have helped us solve big problems, and of course we have to be honest." Qin Feng said: "Old Lu, if your American friends want to know something, just tell them!" ”
"In particular, we need to do a lot of computational work in order to get the smallest radar reflection area, so we have purchased a Galaxy 1 computer with the power of 100 million calculations per second! It is because of this supercomputer that we have calculated the correct form factor. ”
Wooden models can be faked, but it is impossible for this computer to be faked, and it is even more impossible for a factory that produces airplanes to buy a Galaxy 1 in order to fool the Americans!
Therefore, there is only one answer: Factory 320 is indeed developing this advanced stealth machine!
The stealth shape must go through complex calculations, if the computing power is not enough, the shape can only be angular and angular, and there can be no smooth transition, the most advanced computer in the East is the Galaxy 1, they actually purchased such a supercomputer to calculate!
"Can you show us there?"
"Okay, you can take you to see it, but you can't look at the screen."
Don't look at the Galaxy 1 occupies a room, in fact, the console is the same as an ordinary microcomputer, it is a keyboard, a monitor, and there is not even a mouse. In fact, many servers in later generations even shared keyboards, mice, and monitors, and only one set was prepared in a computer room, and whichever server needed to be operated was plugged in.
Americans look at each other, and if they can't look at the screen, they don't know what program the computer is running, but ...... As long as you can see that it is a complete Galaxy 1 computer, it means that these people are not lying, after all, it is impossible to use the complete Galaxy 1 as an ornament!
Even fighter jet design bureaus only use computers to make design drawings, not to calculate which form factor is suitable for stealth, so they don't need supercomputers.
There was nothing to see about a wooden model, but since the Grumman people came, they couldn't go home empty-handed, they had to see something, so everyone flocked to the computer room.
"Guys, our computers are pretty delicate, so everyone has to put on shoe covers before they go inside." Lu Lao held up a shoe cover made of coarse cloth and said to the visitors.
Even in the 90s, computers were still tall, and many schools had their first computer rooms, and they would require students to wear shoe covers to enter, for fear that dust would pollute the computers.
What's more, now, I entered the computer room of the tall Galaxy No. 1, and it would be good if I didn't ask the big guys to bathe and change clothes.
As soon as Lu Lao's words were finished, Hades was the first to pick up the shoe covers, put them on in twos and threes, and then walked in.
"Hey, Mr. Hades, you can't go in for the time being, you need to ......," Lu Lao said, quickly put on shoe covers, and rushed in together.
When Lu Lao entered, he saw Hades standing in the corner, thinking about the blackboard over there.
Many design units will prepare a small blackboard in the room, so that you can write down what comes to mind at any time, and you can also have a place for intensive research and discussion, but now, this small blackboard is written with complex formulas.
"Mr. Hades, I'm so sorry you can't look at this." Lu Lao hurriedly said.
"It's not a big deal, it's just Uffimochev's equation." "The most important thing is to turn this equation into a computer program," Hades said. ”
Hades had seen these equations at Lockheed's Skunk Works, and now, needless to say, Lockheed, other aircraft manufacturing companies have the ability to turn equations into computer programs, use computers to find the best stealth shape, and then build a scaled-down model and put it in the electromagnetic chamber for testing.
Although the Oriental people have such a computer with a power of 100 million calculations, they do not necessarily have advanced computer programs.
"Of course we have the ability." Lu Lao said: "Our Dongfang technicians are the most ...... Mr. Hades, you can't look at the flowchart next to it! Come on, take this flowchart off! ”

There is also white paper on both sides of the blackboard, and on the white paper is a dense program flow chart, writing code is only the last step, and the flow chart in the middle is the most important.
Hades smiled: "Mr. Lu, your Dongfang technology is far from ours, there must be something wrong with your program, now if we let us see, we can still give you guidance." ”
"No, our own program is already the most perfect, no need to change, you want to use our technology in this way, no way! If you want, then we can go to the conference room and talk about the conditions, not now! ”
"Hmph, we Grumman have a mature program, we don't need to look at you at all, and there must be something wrong with your program!"
"Two, stop arguing." Qin Feng appeared in front of the two of them just right: "Either that's it, let's make a bet." Mr. Hades, if your technicians can pick out the problem, then we will admit that you have the ability, and we can also open the computer room here to you, each question is open for ten minutes, the more questions you pick, the longer we will be open, but if you can't find the fault, then you have to apologize to us! ”
Open the computer room!
Don't look at Grumman, which is also a military giant, has long used computers to assist in the design of fighters, but capitalists have to pay attention to cost accounting, they do not have this level of computers, if you can use this kind of computer to calculate something, it is also good!
"Absolutely." Hades looked at the group of people who came in behind him: "Stephen, come here!" ”
An engineer named Stephen walked over and looked at the flowchart on the blank sheet of paper carefully.
"There is a problem here, which will cause it to run slowly, but if you change it, the program will run much more efficiently."
"Hmph, we don't believe it!" Lu Lao looked at the busy people inside: "Feng Gong, Feng Gong!" Come here! ”
Feng Gong is a middle-aged man with glasses, he was in front of the computer at this time, watching the program running inside, and when he heard Lu Lao's words, he pushed his glasses and stood up.
"Feng Gong, these Americans said that there is a problem with our program, you can take a look."
Feng Gong looked at it carefully, and after a few minutes, he suddenly reacted: "Yes, it should indeed be revised here!" ”
"Hmph, Mr. Lu, do you believe it now?"
"It's just a small mistake, and besides, our computer is very powerful, so it's not a big deal." Lu Lao shook his head and expressed dissatisfaction.
"Stephen, keep looking!"
So, Stephen continued to search, and a few minutes later.
"There's a problem here, too, that recursively will cause the program to overflow in some cases."
"What's going on?"
"For example......
Feng Gong took out a pen and paper, calculated it by hand, and after ten minutes, nodded: "That's right, in special cases, it may cause the program to overflow." ”
"Mr. Lu, it's time to be convinced, right?"
"This is just a special situation, as long as you don't encounter special circumstances, I don't accept it!"
"Okay, Stephen, keep looking!"
Of course, there are many loopholes in this program, after all, it was Director Lu who hurriedly helped write the program after installing the Galaxy No. 1 computer, and the Yankees didn't give too much time to prepare, so they could only do it to this extent.
Now, the Yankees have come to the door, and in order to show that they are strong in this field, they have begun to pick up bugs in the program.
The first to choose the program flow chart, after all, this is the way the program runs, and more than a dozen were selected before and after.
"Mr. Lu, your Dongfang technology is indeed very poor, right? We've picked out a dozen bugs! Hades looked proud: "In this field, you are still far behind!" ”
"Okay, I'm convinced." Lu Lao bowed his head.
Now, the Americans are very proud, they defeated the Orientals! They made the unconvinced old engineer bow his head!
"Mr. Qin, you just said that as long as we pick out the problem, you will ......"
"We will allow you to use this computer, but now that there are so many problems with the computer program, we may need to hurry up and modify the program as soon as possible, but you can rest assured, when we modify the program and re-calculate the data, we will be able to use it."
"There must be a lot of problems in your code." Hades's eyes rolled: "How about we can help you find bugs in the code, still ten minutes per error?" ”
"This ...... I'm afraid it will take a long time! ”
"It's okay, we can keep the engineer to help!"
Hades's calculations are very good, as long as they have access to this computer, they can find a way to get the information inside, so that the purpose of their visit has been achieved!
Grumman needed a stealth design solution for that aircraft! It's best to get your hands on it without spending any money! In this way, Grumman will be able to participate in the NATF bidding quickly, and even if there is a problem with the program and the shape of the aircraft needs to be modified, the workload will be much less.
"Well, we don't have any additional funds to support your engineers' salaries." Lu Lao shook his head: "Forget it, alas, a penny is difficult for a hero!" ”
"It's okay, we're good friends, just pay or something." Hades hurriedly said, he heard what the other party meant, he wanted to hire people, but he didn't have money! Well, let's not need money.
"And a business trip allowance or something?"
"Neither!"
"Well, what's so embarrassing?" Lu Lao sighed in his heart, Mr. Qin is too powerful, the plan prepared in advance is exactly the same, Mr. Qin calculates these Americans to death!
This program full of loopholes has been modified by the Americans, and next, we can officially study the stealth machine technology!
If you only rely on making a model and experimenting in the electromagnetic room, it is a blind cat that touches a dead mouse, it may be successful once, or it may have to be tossed tens of thousands of times, Qin Feng can only draw a picture and make a model, but it is still a thousand miles away.
Now, the program is precise and perfect, and the stealth machine project will officially begin!
"Guys, it's almost time, it's time for us to go to dinner." Qin Feng said: "Let's go and taste the authentic Hongdu specialties, and at the same time, I also want to express my gratitude, without your help, the Peace Model Project would not have ended so smoothly." ”
Whatever goes well, it's all the Yankees who are doing it, but this superficial effort still has to be done well.
"Yes, Mr. Qin, you also said that we are friends." "We believe that after the storm, there will always be a rainbow," Pellehak said. ”
In the lively atmosphere, a group of people left the computer room, took off their shoe covers, and went to the canteen to eat.
In fact, it doesn't matter what you eat, the key is to chat during the meal, and when you chat, you will get a lot of useful information.
The table is full of special dishes, fragrant, Qin Feng has enjoyed eating these days, and he really feels like he can't miss it.
"Mr. Lu, your J-11 still uses Spey engines, right?" Brian asked, seemingly casually.
