Chapter 460: Ultra-long-haul flight, 23,500 kilometers!
The whole person is faced with a choice.
When Yang Wei looked at the miserable and backward scene of the country's aviation industry, he clenched his hands tightly, clenched them into fists, gritted his teeth and refused the dissuasion of his family, and made the final decision in his heart.
Still adhere to the original decision, devote himself to the national defense industry, and enter the Rongcheng Aircraft Design and Research Institute for internship!
At that time, Chengfei, after the failure of the J-9 canard wing fighter, had just completed the counterattack of fate, defeated Shen Fei, and the new J-10 program was victorious, and the No. 10 project was at the beginning of development.
At this moment, fate chose him.
Or rather, he chose fate.
Project No. 10, which is now J-10, Yang Wei has grown from an ordinary researcher to the chief engineer of the flight control system at this stage, and has accumulated rich and solid experience under the guidance of Academician Song Wencong, the father of J-10.
Since then, Yang Wei has started a gorgeous counterattack life.
As the chief designer of the FC-1 'Thunder' fighter jointly developed by China and Pakistan,
Served as the chief flight controller of the J-10B fighter,
As the chief designer of the J-10C fighter,
As the chief designer of the J-10S fighter,
As the chief designer of the J-10D fighter,
He served as the chief designer of the J-20 "Weilong".
The field of work involves aircraft assembly, flight control, aerodynamics, fluid mechanics, fly-by-wire control system, and light-by-wire control system.
Fly with the fighters, dance with the fighters.
This is the backbone of a country's aviation industry, creating a prosperous era of the Air Force, and a 'Cheng Loma' that countless military fans talk about.
If it weren't for him, if there was no J-20 'Weilong' that condensed his life's work, the gap between the Huaxia Air Force and the U.S. Air Force would still be a full thirty years!
No wonder Lin Jian showed respect, no wonder there were two soldiers at the door of the office, because the man in front of him with an ordinary appearance and an old state was called Yang Wei.
Peerless Guoshi, Yang Wei!
"Sit down, Comrade Zhou Hai, how is it, the J-10S I designed feels okay?" Looking at Zhou Hai's stunned appearance, Yang Wei smiled, with a hint of fun in his words, jokingly.
"Chief Division, very good, the J-10S is the best fighter I have ever flown in my service career."
Zhou Hai came back to his senses, took a deep breath, forced his mind to regain his composure, looked at Yang Wei with a look full of respect, and said in a straight voice.
Esteemed!
For the familiar and strange man in front of him, there is nothing but respect from the heart.
Strictly speaking, Academician Yang Wei also imparted his precious knowledge, about the "Introduction to Flight Control System" published by the National Defense Industry Press, the author of which is Yang Wei.
"You don't need to wear a high hat, I am very aware of the performance problems of the J-10S, do you know why I came to you this time?" Yang Wei smiled.
Zhou Haiyao shook his head: "I don't know." ”
"Regarding the J-10D, you are the most special pilot in the whole army, and the higher-level central organization has specially lifted the restriction on solo flight, which is enough to prove your excellence, I want to invite you to participate in a high-risk flight mission, are you willing?" Yang Wei, with a pair of small bright eyes, stared at the young and slightly immature Zhou Hai and asked.
Next to him, Lin Jian had a serious face and said with a straight face: "Zhou Hai, this is a dangerous flight mission. ”
"Yes."
When Zhou Hai heard this, he didn't hesitate, his demeanor was calm, his face was solemn and solemn, and he said with a straight face.
Dangerous?
What about the dangers!
Soldiers, shouldering the mission of protecting their families and defending the country, although they don't know how dangerous this task is, Zhou Hai still chooses to accept it.
Looking at Zhou Hai's torch-like eyes, Yang Wei nodded and looked at Lin Jian.
"The main content of this flight mission is - ultra-long-distance non-stop flight of the national airspace line, with a total range of 23,500 kilometers, the starting point is Rongcheng, and the air refueling is carried out on the way, with a total flight duration of 27 hours, and the danger is very high, are you sure?" Lin Jian looked at Zhou Hai, took a deep breath, paused, and then slowly read out the content of the flight mission.
"Yes!"
After listening to the entire flight mission, Zhou Hai nodded seriously and responded, his eyes flashing with a light called excitement.
Generous!
Absolute generosity!
Such a flight mission is simply unheard of, full of challenges and excitement.
How enjoyable is flying for 27 hours straight?
"Zhou Hai, I asked you seriously for the last time, are you sure?" Lin Jian's words were solemn, and there was no joke, only seriousness.
Along the national airspace line, ultra-long-distance non-stop flight!
A total range of 23,500 km!
This kind of mission content is an extreme flight challenge for the J-10D 'Fire Dragon' and pilots who have not been in service for a long time, and the danger is extremely high.
"I'm sure." Zhou Hai responded.
"The purpose of this mission is twofold: first, to test the overall condition of the new fighter after a long period of extreme flight, and second, to temper combat effectiveness and flying skills." Lin Jian nodded, and then revealed the second half of the mission: "Ten days later, at 00:00 a.m. on August 31, the flight mission officially began, and the mission level was level 3 top secret. ”
"Yes." Zhou Hai nodded in understanding.
"Zhou Hai, speaking of which, we are all fellow countrymen, work hard, it's almost noon, so let's stay in Chengfei for a meal."
Yang Wei stepped forward, stretched out his right hand to Zhou Hai, and said with a smile: "I heard that you are very edible, I want to see if it is true." ”
"......" Zhou Hai was speechless and turned his head to look at Lin Jian.
"What do you want me to do? That's right, I said you're very good at eating. ”
Lin Jian noticed Zhou Hai's gaze, held back the smile in his heart, pretended to be serious, and said seriously.
When he was the commander of the air combat special training at the Quzhou base, he knew Zhou Hai's food very well, and occasionally ate relatively little.
"Alright, let's go, the empty stove is almost ready." Yang Wei smiled, and after checking the office documents, he looked at Zhou Hai: "Your flight equipment is in my office, and I am responsible for the loss. ”
After the words fell, he turned around and opened the office door.
The banquet from Yang Wei naturally had no way to escape.
Zhou Hai had no choice but to put down his sharp eyes and a series of secret flight equipment, followed Lin Jian, and went to the air crew stove at the Huangtianba base with Yang Wei and the two guards accompanying him.
As the most important scientific research talent of the Air Force, Yang Wei deservedly became the first special personnel to break through the regulations on the management of air service stoves.
This meal is composed of only three people - Yang Wei, the youngest official pilot of the Air Force, the father of the backbone of the Air Force J-20, and Lin Jian, a very special Air Force Colonel with the code name of 'Hai Dongqing'.
Although Academician Yang Wei is close to 60 years old, he has a young heart, knows the trend of social development and future trends, and has no problem communicating with Zhou Hai, who is nearly 40 years old, and there is no generation gap.
