Chapter 192 Are you interested in a high altitude test flight?
The two brothers became unemployed at Shen Huoyi Factory.
In addition to normal physical training every day, they are learning the flying skills of the two-seat J-15 and flying in the simulated cockpit. For them, in terms of control methods, there is not much difference between the two-seat J-15 and the single-seat one.
This is a two-seat fighter aircraft with a training function.
Not all two-seat fighters have the training function. Whether it has the training function depends on whether there is a control system in the rear cabin.
Like the Feibao, this two-seat fighter has no control system in the rear cabin. The responsibility of the rear cabin pilot is to control weapons, also called a weapons operator.
The two-seater version of the J-11 has a control system in the rear cabin, and both the front and rear cabins can control the fighter, so it has a training function.
The same is true for the two-seat version of the J-15. It is a multi-purpose two-seat fighter and can basically be said to be the carrier-based model corresponding to the Su-30.
However, when Li Hai had an in-depth understanding of the J-15, he was surprised to find that it was a brand-new fighter. The so-called brand-new means that except for the appearance and flight control, the entire avionics system is completely different from the J-10.
Five.
When he learned that the J-15 Shuang's avionics system used a lot of fourth-generation aircraft technology, a new fighter came to his mind, which can be said to be the twin brother of the J-15-Shuang.
It is the J-16 just equipped by the Air Force.
Yi Xiaoyi, the chief engineer of the J-15 double project, invited Li Hai and Dang Weimin to dinner. They had a private room in the small restaurant of the guest house in the evening and prepared seafood from the Bohai Sea. It was very grand.
Yi Xiaoyi opened a bottle of Wuliangye and said to Li Hai and Dang Weimin who were sitting down, "Comrade Li Hai, Comrade Dang Weimin, I have wronged you these past few days. I have asked you to take a three-day break starting tomorrow.
Let’s have some drinks tonight.”
Both Li Hai and Dang Weimin are greedy for alcohol. Firstly, they rarely drink alcohol due to work reasons, and secondly, they don’t have the conditions.
Alcohol is not sold in the army, and you can't bring it back if you buy it when you go out. Even if you want to drink some secretly, you can't do it.
After arriving in Shenhuoyi, the environment became more relaxed, but the requirements for test flight work became more stringent, and they did not dare to break the rules.
Now that the project chief engineer is inviting me to drink, I must be able to drink some.
Li Hai smiled and said, "Mr. Yi, you and my master are old friends. There is no need to be so polite between us. If you have any orders, just tell us directly."
There is no such thing as Wuliangye for no reason!
Yi Xiaoyi smiled and waved his hand, "Let's drink first, seafood paired with white wine is a must-have. The Bohai Sea is about to freeze. If you want to eat fresh food in the next two months, you have to eat seafood from the South China Sea flown over.
"
Li Hai was not polite. He grabbed a big crab and peeled it skillfully. Dang Weimin grabbed a lobster and broke it while saying, "Mr. Yi, the Bohai Sea doesn't seem to produce lobsters, right?"
"Some, of course, are all cultured in sea water. The natural ones are rare and I can't afford them." Yi Xiaoyi picked up the wine glass and started drinking.
I have been craving for it for several months, and it is rare to have a chance to drink. When I was in school, several comrades dressed in casual clothes went out to a mass-market KTV to sing and drink some beer. They were not allowed to drink more, and they had to be careful to avoid it when they came back.
When picketing at school, anyone who smells alcohol will be thrown directly into the solitary cell.
After joining the army, because I was a new recruit, I didn't dare to go too far. In the past two years, the total vacation time was less than one month.
There is almost no time to truly belong to oneself, and there are naturally fewer opportunities to drink.
The environment at the factory is much more relaxed than that in the army, even though it is a military factory.
There is a Military Representative Office in the factory, but they are not under the control of the Military Representative Office. The combat troops and the Military Representative Office belong to two systems, each with its own organizational leadership system.
In other words, Li Hai and Dangweimin were let go, all because of their self-consciousness.
After drinking for three rounds, I drank most of the bottle of Wuliangye.
Yi Xiaoyi was secretly speechless, these two new recruits were so good at drinking, and quickly asked for another bottle.
When the second bottle of wine came, Li Hai smiled and said, "Mr. Yi, if you need our help with anything, just ask."
Yi Xiaoyi didn't hesitate anymore. If they stopped talking about business, looking at the way they were drinking, one more bottle wouldn't be enough. With more than a thousand bottles, the chief engineer couldn't bear a lot.
"Xiao Li, Xiao Dang, the situation is like this." Yi Xiaoyi sighed lightly and said, "Project No. 15B is progressing slowly. The reason is that you somewhat understand. The key technology is unstable. The fundamental reason is that we do not meet the conditions enough."
Pilots have conducted a large number of all-terrain and all-climate test flights. Without test flights, there would be no data. Without data, we scientific researchers are too clever to make a meal without rice."
Dang Weimin said, "General Manager Yi, we only have a little more experience than the new pilots. Of course, Lao Li has more flying hours and has rich experience in handling dangerous situations. It is no problem to do a test flight. But for
It’s not our turn to get the key test flight data for project research and development, right?”
Yi Xiaoyi smiled and shook his head, "Xiao Dang, you are underestimating yourself. Don't you know that those who can work as test pilots here are either senior pilots specially hired by our factory and must have been trained in the flight test academy.
Yes, or they are pilots recommended by the army."
"You can come here to be test pilots. Don't you think that your superiors just find a place to arrange for you two outstanding pilots who have no flying missions for the time being?"
Li Hai was stunned, looked at each other with Dang Weimin, and thought about it carefully, it was really like this.
Test flight is such an important job, can it be arranged casually?
"Mr. Yi, you've confused me. Are you inviting us to dinner tonight so that we can try our best to test the flight? But without the second crew, we can't go up either," Li Hai said.
Yi Xiaoyi nodded and said, "Yes, test flights are not allowed without a backup crew."
"But." He changed the topic and said, "This is a test flight regulation in the factory. If it is a test flight in a wild environment, we do not have this regulation."
Li Hai somewhat understood.
Yi Xiaoyi said bluntly, "We seriously lack flight data in the high altitude environment. When the factory test flight cannot be carried out, the superiors decided to advance the high altitude environment test flight. Are you interested?"
"So interested!" Dang Weimin blurted out.
I've been so exhausted during this period.
Li Hai asked, "Is it the Tanggula Mountains or the Beiku Mountains?"
"Both are done. The training airport is between the two."
Four words popped up in front of Li Hai's eyes - Wakhan Corridor!
"Chief Engineer Yi, does the high altitude environment test flight include the actual combat performance test flight?" Li Hai asked again.
Yi Xiaoyi waved his hand and said, "It is still confidential information, you will know it when we get there. As far as the No. 15B project is concerned, it has also entered the first round of actual combat performance test flight stage, and the second round is
It will be delivered to the flight test institute and the military for joint work, and our manufacturer will be responsible for the first round."
"Well, I understand." Li Hai nodded slightly.
He has no desire to go back to the Musa Naval Training Station now. There is no fun in the Wakhan Corridor over there!
