Chapter 699: The History of the MiG

"What you see now is one of our meritorious fighters." Getting out of the car, standing in front of this plane, Shaposhnikov began to introduce.

As an air force general, he will definitely feel supreme honored for the war, even if Shaposhnikov was just born at that time, it does not affect his praise for this fighter.

"This is our Il-2 fighter." Shaposhnikov continued: "At that time, in the Great Patriotic War, this fighter guarded our sky, accompanied us, all the way to Berlin, the one in front of us, it was in 1943, when the Great Patriotic War was at its most brutal, this fighter was damaged in a fierce battle with the Luftwaffe fighter, and on the way back, it was forced to land on the nearby ice and then sank into the lake, we did not have the opportunity to look for it at that time, until recently, we salvaged this plane and repaired it. Ready to return to the skies, it is the world's first flyable Il-2 attack aircraft. ”

Even if the current Soviet Union has great difficulties, they are still full of pride, and have always been obsessed with the competition with the Americans, not long ago, the American P51 Mustang fighter, carried out a flight show, this fighter is one of the most famous aircraft in World War II, participated in the war again and again, and even to the Korean War, there are such aircraft.

Of course, the Americans' Mustang fighter has been improved, and even the cockpit canopy has been replaced with a whole one, which is not at all as original as the current aircraft of the United States, and this is the real fighter that has passed the test of war!

General Lin walked beside him, looking at the plane, and he was also full of eagerness: "I really hope to fly once." ”

When General Lin just walked into the sacred hall of flight, the first flight was this kind of propeller fighter, and now although General Lin has withdrawn from the first-line flight, he still has the experience of flying several times a year, and now, General Lin said that he wants to test fly this plane, and Shaposhnikov on the side smiled: "Of course you can, but I still recommend that you be on the ground, just watch the flight show, we have prepared a wonderful flight show for you, as for you, I don't block it, but I want to see, Is your pilot's license expired? ”

General Lin studied in the Soviet Union and naturally had a pilot license issued by the Soviet Union, but this kind of license needs to be verified every year, which is of course impossible in later historical periods, so Shaposhnikov firmly believes that General Lin's license must have expired.

Of course, they can't let General Lin test fly here, what if something happens? It will cast a shadow over the relationship between the two countries.

After this plane, continue along the tarmac, there is a row of MiGs, the first thing you see is the MiG-23 with variable sweep wing.

At that time, the own side also studied this fighter, after dismantling, all parts are inspired by their own side, its engine, by its own intention to map and copy, become a turbojet-15 engine, its variable swept wing, was studied by Lu Lao, ready to be used in the planned Qiang-6, its two sides of the air intake, has been used on the J-8 2, it can be said that this aircraft is full of treasures.

Although the Soviet Aerospace Forces have begun to equip a large number of MiG-29 and Su-27, the huge fleet of second-generation aircraft will not be quickly eliminated, after all, they have a huge scale of equipment and need to be in service for many years.

Now, people walk past these MiG-23s, look at their basic Soviet Air Force tactical camouflage livery, and imagine the era that once belonged to them.

The once popular variable swept wing has finally been submerged in the sea of the times, and the edge wings, wing-body fusion, and canard layout have gradually come to the forefront.

When walking through here, in fact, it is to go through the history of the development of military aircraft in the Soviet Union, in the past, China has always been in the introduction and imitation of MiG aircraft, MiG-17, MiG-19, MiG-21, to MiG-21, abruptly stopped, now, domestic military aircraft, is still tinkering on the basis of MiG-21, even if it is J-8, it is only a double-hair version of MiG-21, advanced J-10, still stay on paper, the road of the domestic aviation industry, There is still a long way to go!

Everyone sighed in their hearts, after going through this batch of MiG-23s, finally, the MiG-29 was ahead.

In fact, up to now, the main force of the Soviet Union's domestic sales is still the MiG-29, and the Soviets still don't know anything about the Su-27 in China.

Last time, in fact, my side had secretly inspected the MiG-29, and now, standing in front of the MiG-29 in this row again, it is as if it was yesterday, and I remember it vividly.

"This military aircraft is our most advanced fighter at present, it has the aerodynamic shape designed by the Central Fluid Institute, has advanced power and fire control systems, and has first-class maneuverability.

The country has already made up its mind to pay for these fighters, and even the payment method for these fighters has already been thought of, using food and light industrial products to barter, so that all the barriers are gone, and as long as the country can choose one, its own military industrial enterprises will work at full speed to produce this kind of fighter for China.

The MiG-29, in the equipment system of the Soviet Red Army, belonged to the front-line fighters, and now it has been equipped with a lot of troops, especially in Europe, and a large number of them have also been deployed in Germany, and in their hands, this fighter is also full of praise.

Although General Lin and others have seen it in advance, however, the lineup of this expedition is huge, most of them are still seeing this fighter for the first time, as long as they stand in front of it, they all feel amazed by its appearance, this fighter, you can't tell where is the fuselage, where is the wing, the wing body is integrated into its body, it is quite perfect, from the front, it is more beautiful, as if it is an eagle with wings soaring.

Everyone has already surrounded it, looking at this smooth and refreshing fighter, its belly air intake, its flat fuselage, are all amazing, if in the words of later generations, it is definitely too good-looking, far more than F-15, F-16 and other fighters.

It's just that people who are familiar with it know that this fighter is not the best choice for the Chinese Air Force, its positioning is a front-line fighter, and its range cannot meet the needs of the domestic Air Force.
