Rebirth of Military Workers

Chapter 575

“Director Zheng, Comrade Xie Kai, you should inform us. We are ready for the welcome ceremony.” After receiving the call from the doorman, Xiong Hongyuan hurriedly put down his work and went to the factory gate to welcome Zheng Yucheng and Xie Kai.

Factory 132 was built from the beginning to serve as a backup for Factory 112. The northeast is the country’s core heavy industry base. Once a war is fought, it will definitely be the first area to be hit.

Therefore, at the beginning of the third-line project, the 132 factory was erected in the southwestern hinterland of Rongcheng.

Similar to 404, even if Factory 132 is located in the suburbs of Rongcheng, it is an independent area with dedicated railways and highways. In Rongcheng, it was originally not under the jurisdiction of Rongcheng.

A self-contained town.

“Director Xiong, let’s take a look at the progress of Super Seven.” Zheng Yucheng was not polite, and directly explained his intentions.

“Go to the research institute first?” Xiong Hongyuan didn’t mind either.

“How about going to the prototype production site first?” Xie Kai asked.

To what extent the prototype is produced, I have always heard reports. Zheng Yucheng and others rarely come to pay attention to it personally.

A lot of money was spent, and if it was all on the drawings or even some models, it would be meaningless.

Xiong Hongyuan nodded, got into the car in front, led the way, and let Zheng Yucheng’s jeep follow.

The inside of the 132 plant is very different from the outside. A large area around the outside is farmland. Inside, there is a hardened cement pavement. The road is very wide and the greening on both sides of the road is also very good.

The car drove directly to the factory, no one told Xie Kai and Zheng Yucheng what each workshop did.

Without going a bit, huge factories appeared on both sides.

The workshops are all Soviet-style brick and wood structure workshops. The original red bricks have long been mottled under the invasion of the years.

The car leading the way stopped at the middle door of a factory building that was at least 20 meters high and hundreds of meters long. Xiong Hongyuan got out of the car and waited in front.

“This is our assembly line. Super seven prototypes are also produced here.” Xiong Hongyuan explained the two people’s doubts.

Then took the two into the workshop.

As soon as I entered the workshop, my eyes became empty, and the people in the tens of meters high workshop were extremely small.

On the right side of the door, there is a neat row of small fighters.

“J-7?” Xie Kai asked suspiciously.

Many of the fighter jets that are being assembled have not even been fitted with wings and tails. In front of each aircraft, there are many workers in overalls who are busy.

“If you don’t produce the J-7, what else do you produce? Strong five?” Xiong Hongyuan said with a smile, “Thanks to your pulsating production line, the entire production has become controllable, and the quality problems of the J-7 production process are also like this After the adjustment of the production line, it has been greatly improved.”

Standing in the middle of the factory building and watching the fighter aircraft assembly, it was not as shocking as standing in front of the airport full of fighter aircraft.

On the assembly line, only a rough shape can be seen. Even the fighter aircraft with the cockpit cover not pressed down is not hideous at all. Due to the existence of various assembly auxiliary equipment, it even feels a little messy.

There is no busy production line, there are no planes waiting to be assembled, and there is even a little open space inside.

“Air Force orders are decreasing, and our annual production tasks are not many. When there were many production tasks in the past, the entire workshop was full, both sides.” See Xie Kai to see the J-7 assembly position on the side, Xiong Hongyuan’s face looks Somewhat bleak.

The J-7 was imitated from the very beginning, and it has always been unable to be recognized by the Air Force due to quality problems. Now it is doing well, and its performance directly lags behind the most advanced fighters in the world. It is not to be seen anymore.

If it were not for better, the Air Force would definitely not want these fighters.

“Okay, let’s take a look at our Super-7.” Zheng Yucheng didn’t feel much about the J-7 either.

There used to be no chance to see the production process of fighter jets, but now there is an opportunity to participate in the development of a certain new fighter jet. Xie Kai’s inner excitement can be imagined.

For the J-7, an old fighter that can almost be classified into history for Xie Kai, even if he was reborn, the air force still had a large number of equipment. The air force trained to fly the J-7 all day long. Xie Kai There is no feeling at all.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Every day is bombarded by J-10 and J-20-like sci-fi photos and videos on the Internet. The J-7, which uses a nose air intake method, is small in size, and has low combat effectiveness. It is for people like Xie Kai. In other words, compared with the old-fashioned fighter jets of World War II, it is not much advanced.

There is no nose cone radome, no smooth aerodynamic layout, no well-designed air inlets or something, for Xie Kai, it is all lagging behind.

Although this view is too superficial and one-sided, Xie Kai really doesn’t like the J-7.

In particular, the ratio of the J-7 in front of Xie Kai to the J-10 or even J-20 in Xie Kai’s head, as well as the F-14 in a workshop of the 404 base, is like a tattered child standing and wearing it. The feeling of a middle-aged man in a suit and tie standing together.

The J-7 is too far behind.

Even if it lags behind, this thing has served in the Republican Air Force for decades.

Xie Kai wanted to observe the assembly and production of the J-7 in detail, while Zheng Yucheng dragged him to the left.

The huge workshop, at the gate, is divided into two parts by a two-meter-high baffle.

Originally, there is no need to go here.

Xie Kai looked at Xiong Hongyuan in front of him. This guy definitely did this deliberately to let them watch the production of J-7, but didn’t let them understand. What’s the purpose of this?

When looking at Zheng Yucheng, Zheng Yucheng was turning his head to look at him.

Obviously, it’s the same mindset as Xie Kai.

On the other side of the workshop, as soon as I entered, I found that it was too empty compared to the other side.

Except for the appearance of a main chassis frame, there is nothing.

It’s not nothing. On the other side, there are two more J-7 modified models that have been assembled and painted yellow paint and stopped there quietly.

“J-7III?” Xie Kai asked.

Now the J-7III should have been finalized.

“You know?” Xiong Hongyuan asked Xie Kai in surprise, “This is still confidential.”

“Confidentiality, isn’t that external? Anyway, we are also engaged in fighter jets!” Xie Kai grinned and said, Zheng Yucheng thought he was very ignorant.

“This is not the J-7III, but a new model. Some technical problems need to be improved.” Xiong Hongyuan did not hide, nor did he tell the truth. “The F-7M assembled on the other side is exported.”

“Your new and improved model, if it is equipped with the Thunderbolt-8 modified from the introduction of the Israeli monster missile, the aircraft will lose its balance without the weight of more than 100 kilograms in the nose, right?” Xie Kai saw that Xiong Hongyuan would not give it. To be honest, wondering what model this is.

No aircraft in the whole country, or in the whole world, has as many improved models as the Chinese J-7.

Xie Kai knows that there must be at least more than twenty kinds, and in many cases, these modifications are carried out almost at the same time.

Rongfei has never given up on the improvement of the J-7. In 2004, it also changed the J-7G and the export model J-7MF. The nose of these models has been changed to be larger and can be equipped with advanced equipment. The pulse Doppler fire control radar gives this fighter jet developed in the early 1950s the air combat capability close to that of the third-generation fighter…

Now the country has introduced a complete set of infrared-guided Snake air-to-air missile technology from Israel, which is named Pili-8 in the country.

As the main fighter type, it can’t be equipped with the most advanced air-to-air missiles. How can it work?

Xiong Hongyuan looked at Xie Kai with a weird face, shocked and inexplicably shocked.

No matter how extensive Xie Kai’s news channels are, it is impossible to know this, right?

Moreover, it hasn’t been long since the J-7III was launched, and the weapon system test hasn’t been long. Xie Kai knew about the results half a month ago?

“You kid, just open your mouth and talk nonsense. If that’s the case, can Factory Manager Xiong not know?” Zheng Yucheng didn’t know where the news of Xie Kai came from. From the face of Xiong Hongyuan, it could be seen that this is absolutely true.

Hastily helped to change the subject.

“It is true. There are not many people in this workshop because they have all gone to a meeting and are ready to solve this problem.” Xiong Hongyuan sighed.

There are many improved models of the J-7, especially the export models.

But there are not too many weapons that can be equipped.

This is why many customers are watching.

“Please drink me, I will tell you how to change, how?” Xie Kai said with a grimace.

Xiong Hongyuan was immediately amused.

To say something else, he also believes that technical problems like the J-7 have no way for a group of people who have studied the aircraft for decades. Xie Kai, a young man who has not even figured out the structure of the aircraft, is it possible know.

“Let’s take a look at our Super Seven.” Zheng Yucheng patted Xie Kai’s head.

Xiong Hongyuan nodded and walked towards the place where the seven prototypes were in front.

“What are you hitting me for?” Xie Kai looked at Zheng Yucheng dissatisfied, “Do you think I’m talking nonsense?”

“I know you must have a way. Can we keep a low profile? Where did you know these things? And, have you ever thought that we also build fighter jets! The more advanced they make the performance of the J-7, The more pressure our Super Seven faces, isn’t it?” Zheng Yucheng said in a low voice.

Xiong Hongyuan, who was walking in the front, kept his steps very light, listening to Xie Kai and Zheng Yucheng with his ears upright.

Hearing this, I was stunned. Does this kid really have a way?

It seems that he has a good relationship with the Soviets.

“You are too selfish, isn’t it? We want to compete, don’t we have to compete openly? Only our family develops, when the time comes, the lonely seeks defeat, there is no competition, how lonely? This is what you said at the time.” Xie Kai looked contemptuous. Said to Zheng Yucheng.

Zheng Yucheng didn’t expect that Xie Kai only fought back now, a long time ago.

Isn’t this what he said when he got Wang Hao out to stimulate Xie Kai?
