Chapter 919: The "Sleeping Grass Party" Targeted
In fact, Zhang Liangping was very curious as to why X was not followed by Y, but jumped directly to Z.
However, after a battle between heaven and man, he finally decided not to ask the leader such a question.
Just execute it and you're done…
In short, Chang Haonan's opinion was unanimously adopted at the team member meeting the next day.
In this way, the four main participants in the "Falcon Z" business jet project have reached a consensus.
Of course, this time the Falcon Z is a serious civilian project, so a cooperation signing ceremony still needs to be held.
in Paris.
The group finally decided to send Comrade Lin Zuoming, deputy general manager, as its representative.
Dassault was obviously in a hurry to start construction, so all processes were speeded up and simplified, and the time was finally set at...
Five days later on September 11th.
When Chang Haonan heard the news at the meeting, he almost couldn't hold his breath.
how to say…
This press conference will probably not attract much attention.
After all, Chang Haonan has tried his best over the years to avoid having too much direct impact on the Middle East.
There is no reason to go too far in that matter.
The reason why he finished most of the energy-consuming things last month was to wait for this wave and see if there would be any opportunities to take advantage of the chaos.
However, there was a sudden wave of intensity from the French in the middle.
Ultrshort laser processing is still in the prototype verification stage after all.
Except for a very few people, including Chang Haonan, they actually do not know how to specifically set processing parameters based on the characteristics of the materials being processed.
In fact, even Chang Haonan can only roughly determine a direction, and then conduct specific processing tests, accumulating data while determining process details.
The M88, as an engine that is basically French, or may have American origins, is naturally different from the turbofan 10 in the use of materials.
In other words, before processing the turbine disk and turbine blades for the M88-3 engine, Chang Haonan still needs to personally be responsible for a considerable part of the work.
Fortunately, Liu Yongquan's work efficiency is not as fast as Chang Haonan's. In addition, there are not many prototypes, and Snecma can barely cope with it using electrochemical processing, which finally leaves some free time for Chang Haonan.
However, if we do not look at it from the perspective of hindsight, the first eight months of 2001 were actually quite uneventful.
Therefore, there are only a very small number of people who can predict in advance that something big will happen.
While Chang Haonan was ready to take advantage of the situation, many projects influenced by him were still advancing in different forms.
Qin Province, Haojing.
A few hundred meters away from the fence of Hokyung Airport, a group of young people with cameras in their hands were squatting on a slightly elevated slope, always ready to press the shutter.
Through the high-power lens, they could vaguely see a fighter jet that had been painted in gray and was making final preparations before taking off on the tarmac of the flight test center.
It's just that the view here is so poor that it's difficult to take very transparent photos of the interior of the airport.
Therefore, these people have been squatting here for two days, just waiting for the plane to take off—
Due to the continuous expansion of the city and the rapid development of the Internet in the past two years, many people in Chengdu have long mentioned that there is a new type of aircraft that has never been seen before and is undergoing intensive test flights.
Not long ago, another witness saw this strange-looking aircraft appearing in Haojing.
They came here just to capture a clear photo.
In fact, as someone who has been paying attention to China's aviation industry for a long time, it is not difficult to guess the model of the aircraft in the distance just based on its distinctive design features.
It should be a J-10.
However, unlike the version unveiled at the 50th Anniversary National Day military parade the year before last and the Paris Air Show last month, this aircraft not only uses a non-adjustable DSI air inlet, but the entire fuselage is no longer the same as before. She became slender and slim, and became much richer.
In particular, the iconic "wasp waist" on the old model has been replaced by a more rounded design.
Obviously, this is an improved model based on the J-10, and it still has most of the characteristics of the J-10.
But the improvement is really huge.
It's a bit similar to the radical change from F18C/D to F18E/F, or from F16 to F2.
All this seems to mean that the air superiority and even air interception functions originally carried by the J-10 are weakening and are developing in a more versatile direction.
"From this angle...the fuselage section looks a bit like EF2000?"
One of them took his eyes away from behind the binoculars and asked his companion who was preparing to operate the camera next to him:
"Anyway, I am much fatter than before..."
Seeing that the plane had no intention of taking off, the latter also turned around and retorted in a low voice:
"How can this be called fat?"
"It's obviously the feeling of a girl who was originally sixteen or seventeen years old and has grown into her twenties. This is called mature beauty. You are too young to understand this feeling..."
This person was obviously an experienced driver, and this description was unanimously approved by his companions.
As senior undercover gang members, their concealment equipment and level are comparable to those of professional scouts.
Unless it's close to your face, it's hard to notice anything strange in the grass.
This is also the biggest reliance on their repeated success in sneak shots. In a situation where the enemy is in darkness and we are in the dark, the busy staff inside the wall obviously have no way of knowing that they have been included in the viewfinder...
At this time, they were busy loading test equipment on the J-10, numbered 1007.
A cylindrical pod with the same color as the fuselage.
Around the aircraft, there were many technicians from Luoyi 613 Electro-Optical Equipment Research Institute, who were making final adjustments to the pod.
There is no doubt that this is what Chang Haonan got from Thales Group through the M88 engine project.
Damocles pod.
According to the contract, China will introduce a full set of technologies to localize this pod.
It's just that the French are not fools, and they know very well that they don't let go of the hawk until they see the rabbit. At this time, the M88-3 is still under development, and the M88-4 is even worse. Obviously, it is impossible to destroy the family's fortune so quickly. Fall out.
But in order to show their sincerity, they asked Thales to specially produce several open data bus pod hardware, so that China can install the pods on its own aircraft.
Naturally, this task was handed over to the Luoyi 613 Institute, which is affiliated with the Aviation Power Group.
That's why today's test came about.
Aircraft No. 1007 is the first prototype of the two-seat J-10AS -
The single-seat J-10A has entered the final stage before small batch production, and there is really no time left for testing.
Besides, for this kind of test mission that depends on the pod, it would be more appropriate to hand it over to a plane with two pilots.
For the flight test institute, the job of serving the J-10A is already a familiar one.
Unlike the J-11, which has a different model for each model, the technical status of the single- and double-seat models of the J-10 is almost exactly the same. It is equipped with a lower-casing engine that does not require climbing up and down during maintenance. The experience was very friendly for the ground staff.
Ten minutes later, technicians from the 613th Institute completed the final inspection and debugging of the pod, and together with the ground crew, evacuated from the area around the aircraft.
As one of the advantages brought about by the "wide body and fat body", the J-10A has sufficient space to install an auxiliary power system (APU) in the body, so it does not require the assistance of a power supply vehicle and an air source vehicle every time it is started.
In the cabin, pilot Ning Songtao, who was in the front seat, started the self-starting process of the aircraft according to the manual.
As the APU exhaust hatch on the back of the aircraft opened, a faint flame spurted out, and the unique scream of the turbofan engine quickly increased from weak to strong, reaching the ears of everyone present.
After the engine started working, the electrical system of engine No. 1007 started quickly and completed the self-inspection process in a short time.
In the past, these steps would have taken nearly half an hour to complete step by step with the assistance of ground staff.
But now it only takes a few minutes.
Ning Songtao adjusted the engine speed to idle and then released the brake.
The plane then began to slowly move forward on the tarmac.
The fly-by-wire flight control combined with the FADEC system makes this series of movements smooth and smooth, with almost no lag.
While taxiing to the take-off position, Han Shuming, who was in the back seat, finally said goodbye to the fate of ballast and began to lower his head to adjust the probe of the "Condor-1" (the name of the Chinese version of Damocles) pod. angle.
Although the main function of the Condor 1 pod is to provide target guidance for laser-guided bombs or missiles, the design of the Damocles pod itself determines that it actually has anti-air capabilities.
However, the pod hung under the fuselage has a poorer field of view for air detection than the EOTS located on the nose, so this function is rarely used.
But after all, while the plane was taking off, Han Shuming couldn't stare at the runway below his buttocks, so he had to look directly in front of the plane.
"The effect of this French thing is really good..."
He whispered to himself.
Even if the image is magnified several times and the carrier aircraft continues to accelerate on a slightly bumpy runway, the pod's two-axis stabilizer still maintains the image in a fairly stable state.
Han Shuming tried tapping the screen and set a signal tower far ahead on the left side of the runway as a target.
The image recognition function quickly distinguishes the target from the background and automatically controls the pod probe to lock on the signal tower.
Even after the plane took off and climbed, it did not unlock.
In fact, optoelectronic equipment in the middle and late Cold War, such as the MiG-27K Puffin-23, already has this function.
But for Chinese pilots in this era who have almost never been exposed to airborne optoelectronic aiming equipment, it is definitely a relatively new thing.
What's more, Damocles also supports both infrared and visible light signals.
Thinking that we haven't reached the test airspace yet, Han Shuming, with the mentality of giving it a try, pressed the "infrared" button next to the multi-function display and adjusted the field of view to the thermal imaging channel.
By the way, the lock on that signal tower was unlocked.
Just at this time, Ning Songtao in front also happened to level the plane gradually and enter the shallow climb stage.
This correction made Han Shuming accidentally discover something interesting.
Several small white dots appeared in the field of view of the multifunctional monitor.
And that should be a hillside outside the flight test institute...
Out of curiosity, he directly increased the image magnification of the pod to the maximum.
Then, I saw a few things that looked a bit like humans...
"Tower, this is Unit 1007."
Han Shuming reported directly to Radio Network:
"About 140 directions from the airport and 800 meters away. It seems like there is a group of people secretly filming us?"
