"Four great rewards, thank you for yourselves.

Not long after, everyone came to the transport plane. The people next to it were excited again. The plane was too big and beautiful. The structure of the all-metal structure and the silver-white skin had not yet been sprayed. It might have been just produced.

The wings on both sides are long and wide, with four large piston engines and wide propellers. The fuselage is short and thick and streamlined. The cockpit on the upper part of the head looks very wide, and can be used for at least 3 to 4 people. There is a hatch on the left side of the fuselage. On the back of the fuselage, that is, behind the buttocks of the entire aircraft, there is a huge hatch. Now the hatch door is open, and you can see the spacious belly of the aircraft.

Seeing everyone looking at the transport plane with enthusiasm, Director Liu began to introduce excitedly: "This aircraft has a fuselage length of 28 meters, a height of 9.8 meters, a wingspan of 21.6 meters, a maximum take-off weight of 36 tons, four piston engines, a single power of 1,750 kilowatts, and a maximum range of 4,180 kilometers. It can transport 50 fully armed soldiers at a time.

If it is to transport supplies, it can transport 20 tons of supplies at a time. The crawler infantry fighting vehicles produced by our base can also transport one at a time. Everyone saw that there was no huge hatch behind the plane. This was specially designed to transport our infantry fighting vehicles. If it is transported to transport off-road vehicles we produced, it can transport two at a time."

After listening to Director Liu's introduction, everyone was full of hope. Chief of Staff Left next to him said, "Director Liu, how is the production of our airport? How many aircraft can we produce every month?"

After hearing Chief of Staff Zuo, Director Liu looked puzzled, hesitated for a moment, and replied truthfully: "Our Mustang fighter jets have about ten per month. For such large-scale transportation, the monthly output is only about three or five, and the output is not high."

Everyone next to him was not disappointed after hearing what Director Liu said. The two types of aircraft had a total output of more than a dozen aircraft each month. After all, the total number of aircraft in the base area is only more than twenty, and it is still the aircraft that was underperformed by the performance of the captured Xiao Gui.

Zhang Yunfei was also very satisfied with this output. The output of more than a dozen aircraft per month was indeed good. The situation in the base area cannot be compared with that of the United States and the Soviet Union. In Zhang Yunfei's memory, the total output of Mustang fighters produced by the United States could reach tens of thousands in a few years, and it only took dozens of days from the beginning of designing to the manufacturing of the first aircraft. Please remember

The production of the United States is still not enough to catch up with. Currently, there is such a production every month, which is a small amount. In a year, the number of aircraft produced is not too small.

Gao Zhihang, the commander of the flight brigade who came with Zhang Yunfei, looked at the two planes carefully, his face was full of excitement, even a little trembling, and his face was a little red. He stretched out his hands and gently stroked the fuselage. Then, he also held Director Liu's and said thank you a few times.

Then he turned around and said to Zhang Yunfei with excitement and a little trembling voice: "Thank you, Chief, for providing us with such an excellent plane. On behalf of all the personnel of the Flight Brigade, I here to ensure that we will train hard and kill the Japanese well. Please rest assured."

Afterwards, Gao Zhihang gave Zhang Yunfei a solemn military salute, and his eyes were a little wet when excited. Zhang Yunfei patted Gao Zhihang on the shoulder, and encouraged and comforted him a little.

After watching the plane, Director Liu led everyone to visit various workshops of the aircraft manufacturing factory. Although each factory building is not high, it is not small in size. The first thing everyone visited was the aircraft assembly workshop. In the huge factory building of the assembly workshop, several aircraft being assembled were parked.

The workers are assembling in an orderly manner, and many engineering and technical personnel are also busy, among which there are many blonde and blue-eyed foreigners. Everyone is very happy to see such a huge assembly factory and a busy scene.

Originally, everyone thought that the first produced aircraft needed to be continuously tested, and then large-scale production was carried out after the technology was very perfect. Now it seems that we are preparing to improve while producing, and gradually improve and improve in actual combat and production.

After visiting the assembly factory, Director Liu led everyone to visit several processing factories. In the processing factory, machines roared and electric arcs splashed. Each worker was processed with joy and pride on his face, and his spirit was very good. Zhang Yunfei looked at it and nodded secretly, feeling very happy.

After visiting the factory, everyone was waiting to watch the plane test flight performance. On the huge apron, the towing truck was already in place and was pulling the Mustang fighter toward the runway.

Datong Aircraft Manufacturing Factory not only has its own tarmac, but also its own test runway. The plane can take off directly from here, and there is no need to transport the plane to Datong Airport.

Seeing that the beautiful Mustang fighter was in place, Gao Zhihang couldn't control his joy and asked with a smile: "Commander-in-Chief, let me test flight myself!"

Zhang Yunfei nodded gently.

"Thank you, Chief." Gao Zhihang first saluted Zhang Yunfei, and then happily ran towards the Mustang fighter on the runway in everyone's eyes. Gao Zhihang took the equipment of the test pilot next to him and dressed neatly. He immediately climbed into the cabin, slowly closed the transparent hatch cover, and several ground crew members next to him immediately withdrew the gangway.

Under everyone's eager eyes, Gao Zhihang started the plane. The propeller of the plane turned faster and faster. The plane slowly taxied on the runway. After about a few hundred meters on the runway, the plane left the runway and flew towards the blue sky.

"Flying up, flying up." Many people next to them began to shout excitedly.

The plane flew higher and higher, and in a short while, it flew to a height of several thousand meters. Many people held their telescopes and looked carefully, while those without telescopes were watching carefully with their naked eyes.

Gao Zhihang, who was flying the plane, seemed extremely happy. He started to play stunts in the sky while driving the plane. He dived, then climbed vertically, and then flew backwards.

The people watching on the ground were dazzled, their blood was boiling, and they cheered. Some people even shouted hard. Zhang Yunfei and other senior executives of the 36th Group also praised and praised them.

After about half an hour of flying, Gao Zhihang started to return with an unfulfilled plane. When the plane stopped on the runway, Gao Zhihang got off the plane with excitement, trotted all the way to Zhang Yunfei, stood attentively and saluted, and said happily: "Chief, this plane is so outstanding, I am personally very satisfied with him."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yunfei also smiled slightly, held Gao Zhihang's hand and said, "Okay, then I'm looking forward to you flying the war eagle, soaring in the blue sky of the motherland, defending the country, and driving away the invaders."

"Yes!" Gao Zhihang immediately stood at attention and replied loudly with a full breath.

Next was a flight performance of the transport plane. This time, Gao Zhihang did not participate in the flight, but several test pilots from Datong Aircraft Manufacturing Plant flew the transport plane and conducted a test flight performance.

Several test pilots entered the cockpit and started the plane. Four engines drove the propellers, making deafening sounds. The plane slowly drove towards the runway. After entering the runway, it scattered for thousands of meters before leaving the runway and flew towards the blue sky. The plane hovered in the sky for several times, flew for about twenty minutes, slowly lowered its altitude and landed on the runway.

Zhang Yunfei, who watched the test flight performance, was in a good mood. Although there are only fighters and transport planes now and there are no bombers for the time being, Mustang fighters can hang 900 kilograms of bombs and can temporarily play a guest role in bombers and slowly produce large bombers in the future.

But there is one type that can be modified at present and can be modified on the basis of transport aircraft, that is, the early warning aircraft that Zhang Yunfei is looking forward to. Although several ground early warning radar stations have been established in the base area, these radar stations can only passively defend. If you want to attack the Japanese base or military camp for a long distance, you still need to accompany the early warning aircraft with radar.

So Zhang Yunfei said to Director Liu next to him: "Director Liu, what I told you two months ago, how is the early warning aircraft project going on?"

Seeing Zhang Yunfei asking, Director Liu next to him immediately suppressed the smile on his face and said in a loud voice, "Report Chief, the early warning aircraft project design plan has been released. We will use the new transport aircraft we produce as the parent body. In about two months, the first early warning aircraft will be produced."

"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news." Zhang Yunfei said with anticipation.

After returning from the Datong Aircraft Manufacturing Plant, General Staff Chief Comrade Zuo Qingquan, Director of the Political Department Comrade Deng Wenping, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Comrade Liu Dazhu, Deputy Director of the Political Department Comrade Fang Zheng, etc. were still immersed in joy, and everyone had a faint smile on their faces.

Comrade Deng Wenping, director of the Political Department, also said to Zhang Yunfei happily: "Commander-in-Chief, we have such advanced aircraft to form a powerful air force. When wars start in the future, we will have air support."

"Well, we want to continue to build our flight brigade. At present, our flight brigade has three or four hundred pilots. In addition, there are nearly two thousand ground crew members, ground commanders and communication personnel, etc., but these are far from enough. I plan to double the flight brigade within a year."

After hearing Zhang Yunfei's long-term plan, everyone seemed full of confidence. Comrade Zuo Qingquan, Chief of Staff, said with emotion: "If this is true, our air force is enough to defend our airspace. The total number of aircraft of the Japanese North China Front Army is less than 200, and their performance is worse than that of our newly produced aircraft."
