The military-industrial scientific research system of the academic master.

Chapter 770: Carrying on the Past and Forging into the Future

On the other side of the viewing platform, a little boy was holding a telescope and looking at the sky.

However, because the interpupillary distance is too small and the end is not stable, it is really difficult to see anything clearly.

Might as well use the naked eye.

"Grandpa, are these the planes you flew back then?"

he asked, putting down his binoculars.

However, this time, there was no response.

After turning around, he discovered that there was another man in military uniform beside his grandfather.

"Mr. Sir, I heard someone say that you have flown this kind of plane before?"

The old man looked up at the formation above his head and asked the man next to him.

Although he is very old, his eyesight as a pilot is almost as good as when he was young.

"Yes, I flew there the year before last..."

General Lin nodded:

"I'm telling you Lao Wang, it feels so comfortable. If nothing else, the plane will react with just a slight movement of the stick in your hand. It's not like when we first got on the plane, we held the stick in both hands. Only then can we break it apart..."

General Lin was the first generation of Chinese pilots to fly the P51 at the founding ceremony. When he first learned to fly, he used the 99 Higher Education School of the old Northeast Aviation School. There was no flight control, and the steel wire was directly connected to the rudder surface from the cockpit, all relying on one hand.

In some airplanes, even the seats are broken, and student pilots can only use ropes to tie themselves to the seats.

As for skydiving…

What skydiving?

There are only a few planes in the entire army. Are you telling me to skydive?

If I can fly back, I will fly back. If I can’t fly back, I don’t have to come back...

The person called Lao Wang next to him is Wang Min, the chief of staff of General Lin when he was the aviation division commander. He once flew a J-5 and damaged an F86 fighter jet. However, he later changed his career to work in the civil aviation system due to physical reasons.

"Tsk tsk..."

Wang Min shook his head:

"You are still in good health. You can still fly a fighter jet at the age of seventy..."

"But speaking of it, when I returned to my old army two years ago, I still saw the J-6 I flew over back then still parked on the tarmac..."

They were surrounded by retired senior cadres and at most children under ten years old, so they could have a more open conversation.

"Changed, changed everything."

Old General Lin replied with a smile:

"Did you see the high-altitude and high-speed fighter echelon that just passed by? That's the model I changed to..."

When two veteran cadres got together, they naturally talked mostly about old things from the past.

It wasn't until Wang Min's grandson called him "grandpa" several times that their attention was diverted.

This time, it was Old General Lin who answered directly:

"If your grandpa and we had these planes back then, we would probably be able to go to Hokkaido and take a look at them..."

While the two old and one young were chatting and laughing, the aerial formation formation gradually came to an end.

Six training aircraft painted in gray from the aviation school appeared on the scene.

"These planes seem to be the same type as the planes used by the original performance team?"

Wang Min took the telescope in his grandson's hand and glanced at the sky.

As an old comrade from the founding days of the Air Force, he naturally understands the importance of cultivating pilot talents.

"Yes, the new fighter-training aircraft that were only equipped to the army last year can simulate the control characteristics of third-generation fighter jets. Because of their good flight performance, the demonstration team was the first to purchase a batch."

Mr. Lin didn't bring any equipment, so he had to cover the sun with his hands and look up.

After hearing this answer, Wang Min nodded silently at first, and then looked at the other party half-jokingly:

"The models of the first formation and the last formation are the same..."

Mr. Lin was stunned at first, but he immediately realized what Wang Min meant -

At the founding ceremony, because the number of aircraft was too small, there were three formations with a total of 9 P51 aircraft. After completing the review, they circled to the end and flew again, making the 17 aircraft look like 26.

Mr. Lin himself was one of the nine pilots.

Of course, although the current Chinese Air Force still lags behind the world's top air forces, it certainly no longer needs to use this kind of blindness.

Now that this matter is brought up again, it's just a joke between two old guys.

Mr. Lin raised his hand and pointed at Wang Min in front of him, but said nothing.

The two of them showed a knowing smile at the same time.

……

At the same time, on the east viewing platform.

"Xiao Nan..."

Zhou Li had deliberately behaved very calmly and calmly since the night before.

As a result, the first voice broke at this time.

Obviously, it was all an act before.

Feeling uneasy, I was even happier than Chang Yuanchao.

But at this time, she couldn't care about it anymore. She quickly cleared her throat and grabbed Chang Haonan next to her:

"Xiaonan, is this the formation?"

Chang Haonan nodded:

"Yes, that's it. Jia Yao is on plane No. 6, the plane at the back of the formation."

Upon hearing this, Chang Yuanchao quickly took out a telescope from a somewhat tattered cowhide box.

It was a trophy from when he was a scout. It was made from East Germany and was of very good quality.

"Let me see it quickly."

Zhou Li also stopped pretending at all.

In fact, even with a telescope, it is impossible to see clearly what the pilot in the cockpit looks like from the ground.

Not to mention the flight helmet and mask.

However, Chang Yuanchao still took it with him.

After all, the daughter was being inspected in a plane designed by her son, while the parents were watching from the viewing platform below.

Not many people in the country can experience this kind of happiness.

Especially, how can people not have the mentality to show off.

Normally, if I catch a fish weighing 10 kilograms, I would like to mention it to everyone, let alone my son or daughter who has such great potential.

However, due to the special nature of Chang Haonan and Chang Jiayao's work, they can only keep a low profile. They rarely have the opportunity to mention the situation of their children to others.

Even when asked sometimes, they just said that his son was a small leader in a state-owned enterprise in the capital, and his daughter joined the army.

No chance to show off at all

Suffocated.

at the same time.

In the front cockpit of the No. 6 aircraft in the training aircraft formation, Chang Jiayao was also looking at the crowd on the viewing platform below.

When we met at the airport before, Chang Haonan said that their location was at the far west of the east viewing platform.

However, there were too many people on the viewing platform today.

It's impossible to pinpoint who it is just by relying on such a rough location.

Therefore, Chang Jiayao raised her camera and took the opportunity to take a bird's-eye view of the Tiananmen Gate Tower, taking three photos of the entire east viewing platform.

We’ll talk about it later if we can find someone inside. Anyway, we need to keep a souvenir.

Otherwise, this visit can hardly be called perfect.

……

After the training aircraft formation, there are three consecutive groups of helicopters.

Compared with the previous generation of helicopter formations that were all Z-9A, this time the variety is much richer.

They are straight 9A, straight 9C and straight 9W...

However, including the training aircraft formation, not many people are paying attention to it.

On the one hand, different models of Z-9 are very similar in appearance. Except for the French, few people know the amazing technical capabilities behind the latter two improved models. The training aircraft is similar to the model of the Bayi Aerobatic Team. Same, nothing new.

On the other hand...

Most people are still immersed in the shock brought by the "domestic new generation fighter formation" just now.

On the front row of the auditorium.

"Did you take a complete picture of the formation just now?"

Zhou Ruifu looked at the dozens of helicopters that were gradually disappearing and asked Bai Lidong next to him.

If he were asked to describe his current mood, it would be...

I'm so stupid, really. I only knew that the Chinese were developing a third-generation fighter jet and would test it in Yanliang, but I didn't know that there would be one at the military parade...

Although the media at the scene will certainly take a large number of photos, as a person responsible for intelligence tasks, it will appear very unprofessional if he directly uses media photos to submit a report.

Fortunately, Baili De was always very vigilant. He nodded and put away the camera:

"I took the photo, but the magnification was not high enough. I was worried that some details could not be seen clearly."

"It doesn't matter, as long as there are a few photos that can be used domestically."

Zhou Ruifu breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and replied:

"We have already done technical research on the Chinese new fighter jet. It is probably a pure air superiority model that is comparable to the late-model F16A. Although it is larger in size, it uses a delta wing design, so the bomb load is the same. The range is not very optimistic, and the air combat performance may not be weaker than the F16, but the multi-purpose potential is insufficient.”

As he spoke, he started to pack his things.

There were mass celebrations after the parade, but that was not what interested him.

Beijing is still a bit hot in October, and Zhou Ruifu just wants to end it quickly, go back to the air-conditioned room to write a report, and then wait until evening to attend the dinner party.

"However, what surprises me is the progress of their research and development of this model."

Zhou Ruifu took out a pair of sunglasses from his bag and put them on:

"This model only flew for the first time two years ago. We don't expect it to enter mass production until 2004-2005. However, since they dare to let the prototype go on military parade, it shows that the degree of completion is already very high. I am afraid it will be equipped in two or three years."

"So...it's a big threat to us?"

Bai Lidou asked.

Regarding the Air Force, he obviously doesn't know as much as Zhou Ruifu, a former pilot.

"That's not necessarily the case..."

The latter's answer was noncommittal:

"The scale of the Chinese third-generation fighter jets cannot grow explosively in a short period of time. You know that in many cases, quantity itself is a kind of quality. What's more, although they are both third-generation fighter jets, our F15C and F16C are Better performance than those early models..."

Although he said this, Zhou Ruifu's expression was still slightly serious. After a slight pause, he changed the topic again:

"However, in any case, this is indeed the first time since the 50s that the generation gap has been smoothed out by the Chinese Air Force."

"So, the domestic development of a new generation of fighter jets must indeed be accelerated..."
