The Military-industrial Scientific Research System of the Academic Master Chapter 823

Chapter 823 Aviation Equipment Test Base

After sending Tang Lintian and Meng Zhenyuan away, Chang Haonan immediately contacted Ding Gaoheng and told him his idea of "borrowing" Air Police 200 for target feature recognition and screening experiments.

The latter was silent for a while after listening:

“Xiao Chang, have you forgotten that you are still the deputy chief engineer of the Air Police 200 Project?”

With one sentence, there was an eerie silence on both sides of the phone.

Chang Haonan scratched his head.

It is true that I forgot.

After all, the scope of the deputy chief designer's position depends entirely on the specific work he is responsible for, and there is a huge gap between the upper and lower limits.

And Chang Haonan happens to be the kind of person who is not responsible for any specific work——

At the beginning, what I said was to help solve some difficult problems.

But the entire Air Police 200 project highlights one logical and most troublesome part, namely the overall design and flight safety, which were overcome by Chang Haonan even after the project was approved.

So we didn't encounter any difficult problems at all.

Naturally, it was not his turn as the deputy chief engineer to play any role.

Haven't even signed a word.

Coming back and forth, and being so busy in the past few years, I have long forgotten about it...

And it's not just him.

Probably few people except Ding Gaoheng still remember it.

Otherwise, there should have been at least a few more procedures when he took up the post at the Aerospace Power Group.

However, now that this level of identity is in place, the matter has changed from "parallel cooperation between two military-industrial groups under the Science and Technology Commission system" to an internal matter of the project.

As long as the two chief engineers Liang Shaoxiu and Wang Xiaomo agree.

Considering the working relationship between Chang Haonan and them, and it does not involve any hardware modification...

Basically just say hello.

It can save a lot of trouble.

"Then...I'll contact Liang Gong and Mr. Wang directly."

After finishing speaking, Chang Haonan was a little embarrassed and prepared to hang up the phone.

Dante Gaoheng still has something to say:

“By the way, Xiao Chang.”

He stopped Chang Haonan's attempt to hang up the phone:

“After I went to work today, I heard that there seems to be another wave of public opinion in your school?”

Beijing Hang University is a university affiliated to the Science and Technology Commission. In terms of terms of reference, Ding Gaoheng can naturally manage it.

It's just that he paid special attention to such trivial matters today simply because he was worried about having anything to do with Chang Haonan.

“Ah...it's not a big deal.”

Chang Haonan replied in a relaxed tone:

“Yesterday, a foreign mathematician came to visit. After the two of us talked about academic issues all night, we got some inspiration, so we went back early today to continue our research.”

“Outsiders don't know the ins and outs of things, and it's normal for them to make wild guesses about some unreliable content.”

Although Ding Gaoheng has been in a high position for many years, he is not out of touch with the masses. At least he is very clear about the ethics of the media.

So after hearing Chang Haonan's explanation, he also guessed what was going on:

"That's good. As for public opinion matters, you let Tang Lintian handle it. You can come up with ideas from behind, but except for interviews arranged by the organization, don't express your position directly."

Although the former's performance in this regard has been very reassuring in the past, Ding Gaoheng still specifically gave instructions.

After finishing speaking, he seemed still a little worried:

“Forget it, I will hold a special meeting for several universities under the Science and Technology Commission system later to formulate a method to deal with sudden public opinions..."

After hanging up the phone, Chang Haonan immediately prepared to contact Liang Shaoxiu and Wang Xiaomo.

However, when he was about to dial the number, he realized that as the deputy chief engineer of the Air Police 200 project, he did not know where the two chief engineers were now.

The office is definitely a no-brainer.

It's almost dinner time now, and the nature of their work means they can't sit in the office even if they work overtime.

As for mobile phones…

The last time the three of them met was almost two years ago.

At that time, only Chang Haonan, who was relatively wealthy, bought one.

So he doesn't know the mobile phone numbers of the other two people either…

"well…"

He shook his head with a somewhat self-deprecating smile:

“I, the deputy chief engineer, serve as a... pure negative teaching material...”

In the end, there was really no other way, so I contacted the Aviation Industry Group step by step and learned that the two of them were now in Liao Province doing basic performance testing of the Air Police 200.

Three days later.

Liao Province, Xingcheng Base.

This used to be a station belonging to the Naval Flying Academy, but the frequency of use was very low. Only occasionally a J-H 7 regiment came to station for training.

Considering the relatively remote geographical environment and the location advantage of being close to the Bohai Bay, after Wu Yifan returned the information about the Nitka aircraft carrier training base to China, it was selected as the future Chinese carrier aviation training base. Later I felt that it would be a waste to just put an aircraft carrier training facility in such a large area.

So it was simply planned to become an exclusive aviation equipment test area for Hainan Airlines.

It's a bit like Area 51.

Of course, although no one said it clearly, it must be somewhat similar to the Air Force Reform Base.

Hence, the Air Police 200, as an early warning aircraft funded by the Navy, became the first model to enjoy the high-standard treatment here.

“Mr. Chang, we haven't seen each other for a while.”

As soon as Chang Haonan walked out of the cabin of Challenger 601, Wang Xiaomo and Liang Shaoxiu came to the gangway and shook hands with him respectively:

“I thought you had forgotten your title as deputy chief engineer…”

As the person in charge of the Air Police 200 project, Wang Xiaomo certainly remembered that he also had a deputy chief engineer who had barely appeared.

"I…"

Chang Haonan thought to himself that this article should be revealed as soon as possible, and at the same time quietly changed the subject:

“Yeah, long time no see.”

After speaking, he tightened his coat to resist the **** sea wind around him:

“I'm ashamed. As the deputy chief engineer, I have only done some minor work. Now I have a project at hand, and I have to trouble you...”

“Hey, don't say that. It was you who came up with the overall design of this early warning aircraft.”

Wang Xiaomo slowed down slightly and replied:

“If you hadn't come up with this T-shaped antenna solution, we would probably have just used a balance beam solution like the Saab 2000…”

At this time, Liang Shaoxiu, who had been silent just now, was also nodding beside him:

"And what's more important is the platform itself. A while ago, before we arrived in Liao Province, a test flight in southern Shaanxi encountered severe icing weather. Fortunately, the de-icing system worked in time, otherwise it would have been really bad. Something might happen."

There was a little fear in his tone.

While talking, Chang Haonan and his party walked into the large hangar where Air Police 200 was parked in the distance—

Since the main equipment for a long time has been first- and second-generation fighter jets, the Chinese aviation force has never paid enough attention to aircraft ground protection in the past.

After all, there is really nothing to coddle with something like the J-6 and J-7.

As for what to do in rainy and snowy weather...

Sorry, these aircraft are not designed to operate in bad weather.

No need to take off…

But as the third-generation fighter jets and a batch of special aircraft are successively equipped and tested, it will definitely not be possible to continue to be so rough.

This large-scale constant-temperature hangar is the first attempt of naval aviation.

As soon as he entered the building, what attracted Chang Haonan's attention the most was not even the early warning aircraft carrying a towering antenna.

Rather, it is a large half-circle of control consoles around the hangar.

　　It doesn't feel like you've entered a hangar, but rather like a workshop…

Perhaps noticing Chang Haonan's eyes wandering around, Wang Xiaomo introduced with a smile:

“This hangar is very powerful. The Navy specifically considered the convenience of technical verification work and spent a lot of money to install a lot of maintenance and auxiliary equipment.”

“Some minor parts replacements and software upgrades can be carried out here after being shipped over, without having to fly the aircraft back to the factory.”

“Good guy…”

Chang Haonan had seen a similar fully functional hangar before his rebirth, but seeing such a thing in 2000 still made him marvel:

“That is indeed very convenient.”

Chang Haonan nodded with satisfaction.

He originally thought that the plane would have to return to Nanzheng to complete the upgrades he needed.

But now it seems that a round of trouble can be avoided.

“That's why we moved the plane from Yanliang to this side in advance.”

Wang Xiaomo said as he opened the cabin door and took the other two people into the interior of the cabin, which was already filled with a row of display consoles:

“On the one hand, it is to test the adaptability of the aircraft in the coastal environment, and on the other hand, it is also to test the working effect of the radar.”

As an incompetent deputy chief engineer, it was actually the first time for Chang Haonan to enter this aircraft, or the first time to enter the interior of an early warning aircraft.

So it still feels a bit fresh.

Wang Xiaomo has long been used to seeing what it looks like when someone gets on an early warning aircraft for the first time, so he very skillfully gave Chang Haonan a brief introduction to the specific functions of each piece of equipment.

Chang Haonan sat next to him and listened quietly.

It wasn't until the former talked about the core multi-functional radar display that he interrupted him:

“Mr. Wang, let's talk about radar.”

Chang Haonan pointed to the top of his head:

“Can our antenna array be made larger?”

He remembered that when he first talked to Wang Xiaomo about the domestic early warning aircraft, the other party seemed to have said that the size of the antenna was about 8 meters * 0.6 meters.

As far as the size of the Yun8 platform is concerned, it is certainly large enough.

But if you want to use the Tu 214 or the domestically produced C909 as the platform, it may be able to accommodate a larger one.
