"Isn't it strange? Brother, this project has been in the works for a long time. I participated in the avionics design of this project the year I joined the army. It is already too late to prepare for the first flight this year."
Niu Jun said.
Li Zhan said in surprise, "No, I asked you just now what kind of plane this is and why did you say you didn't recognize it?"
Niu Jun pointed to his eyes, "My vision is that of a technician, but it cannot compare to your vision as a pilot. I could see a blurry shadow from such a distance."
"Oh, you mean the J-16 will make its first flight this year?" Li Zhan was a little surprised.
Niu Jun said, "Yes, it's decided, after National Day."
Li Zhan looked at the unpainted J-16 prototype, which looked very ugly, and rubbed his chin as he thought, "The Beikku region needs this kind of fighter jet that can stay in the air for a long time. A two-seat aircraft has great advantages over a single-seat aircraft, and this
He is a professional fighter-bomber, not a combat trainer like BS who had a face lift the day after tomorrow."
Niu Jun has been at the Beiku combat training base for some time. Niu Jun knows the situation there very well, and because of Li Zhan’s relationship, she has a preconceived impression of the 101st Brigade. She believes that all the good equipment in the world should be given to the 101st Brigade.
, especially the Falcon Brigade.
"Yes, this project is very difficult. Brother, although it looks similar to the original Su-30, in fact the various subsystems are completely different, especially the avionics system and the materials used, which are much better than the original ones.
So we encountered a lot of difficulties." Niu Jun said solemnly.
"Yes, it is not easy for us to fully understand the Soviet Union's decades of technological accumulation in a short period of time. What's more, we have to integrate our own technology into it." Li Zhan felt the same way.
Niu Jun said, "This time we also encountered some difficulties in integrating the tactical intelligence interactive terminal into the J-11B's avionics system. Fortunately, the manufacturer's technical staff were very capable and worked day and night to find a solution and complete the work."
Li Zhan said with a smile, "How did I hear that you were the first to do this? You came up with the idea to solve the problem. Junior sister, I am impressed by you. You are a heroine."
"Hey, how did you know?" Niu Jun asked unexpectedly.
Li Zhan smiled slightly and said, "Your senior brother and I also have friends here."
Niu Jun said thoughtfully, "Is this the representative of Hu Wenbingjun?"
"Sure enough, Bingxue is smart." Li Zhan said.
He walked towards the naked J-16 prototype, and a worker with alert eyes came over, "Hello, are you okay?"
Li Zhan handed over his military officer ID card, "Comrade, I want to know about the situation of this aircraft."
The worker looked at the certificate carefully, handed it back to Li Zhan, and said, "No, this aircraft has not been made public yet."
"I am an Air Force pilot." Li Zhan said.
"No, you have to apply." The worker said.
Niu Jun came over and said, "Brother, let's go, I don't have the authority anymore."
She used to be in the project team, but now that she is gone, she no longer has confidentiality authority.
"Okay, excuse me." Li Zhan said, reluctantly turning around and returning to the car with Niu Jun to return to the guest house.
When he arrived at the place, Li Zhan abandoned Niu Jun and went directly to Xue Xiangdong.
Xue Xiangdong lived in a suite with a living room and a bedroom. Xue Xiangdong was reading documents at the desk in front of the living room window. Li Zhan was surprised to find that the brigade commander actually wore glasses.
The scene when Xue Xiangdong hurriedly took off his glasses and hid them happened to be seen by Li Zhan. He scolded him with a sullen look on his face, "What's going on with you? Have you learned the internal affairs regulations in vain?"
Li Zhan quickly stood at attention and saluted to make a report. He had already walked in and said, "Brigadier, your door is open. I thought you were talking to someone. I'm afraid that the sudden report will scare people."
"What's the matter?" Xue Xiangdong quickly recovered from the brief panic.
Li Zhan thought for a while, then walked over and said, "Brigadier, are you an old woman?"
This is a big deal.
How can you fly a plane if you have presbyopia? For pilots, presbyopia means the end of their flying career. However, at the mobilization meeting, Xue Xiangdong vowed to the officers and soldiers that he would take the lead in participating in modification training to motivate the officers and soldiers.
enthusiasm for training.
Li Zhan suddenly remembered that the brigade commander had been flying less and less in the past few months. Many people, including him, thought that was because the brigade commander was busy with military affairs and had less and less things to do for training. You see
Which infantry brigade commander has ever taken the lead in running an armed five-kilometer climb?
However, the Air Force is different from the Army. As early as last year, the Air Force issued a document requiring the commanders of each unit to take the lead. Specifically, they must ensure that all types of aircraft within their jurisdiction can fly, and the training level must reach good or above.
Troop commanders are division commanders, brigade commanders, and regimental commanders, especially division and brigade commanders.
Fighter pilots are a highly technical branch, especially relying on accumulation, so in theory, the more they fly, the higher their level will be. The more they fly, the older they are, usually the commander and deputy commander of the unit. The air force division brigade commander leads
It is naturally common to participate in varsity drills and training.
But Xue Xiangdong is not yet fifty years old. Li Zhan remembers that he is only forty-two years old this year. He can fly to forty-seven or eighteen years old, and even fifty is possible.
Normally, Air Force pilots will stop flying between the ages of forty-five and forty-eight. There are some special examples, such as Zhang Sihai, the former commander of the Second Division. Flying for a few more years will not be a big problem, but the intensity of flight training will naturally drop significantly.
of.
Xue Xiangdong is at the critical stage of entering the ranks of generals. Grounding at this time is not a good sign. But why is he aging when he is only forty-two years old?
It was absolutely impossible for Xue Dapao to show his fragile side in front of the soldiers. He said calmly, "Who's old? I'm in the prime of my life and I'm going to fly a long distance. You may not be able to fly over me. If you don't believe me, go back and ask for help."
Medical director, he has my physical examination report in his hand."
It’s over. The artillery brigade commander is really old. Li Zhan immediately confirmed this. If nothing happened, he would not add any superfluous words and ask him to go to the aviation medical director for a physical examination report. The brigade commander’s physical examination report can be read casually.
Are you kidding me?
But Li Zhan knew very well the mood of Commander Cannon at this moment, so he pretended not to know about the matter and said, "Yes, Commander, I have something I want to report to you."
"What about being a consultant with Mavericks? Li Zhan, I reminded you that you must pay attention to issues related to your lifestyle. Yes, you young people now pay attention to freedom of love and love. You can choose before getting married, but you are not an ordinary citizen.
, you are not an ordinary cadre, you will have the opportunity to be promoted again in the future, don't ruin your future in a hurry." Xue Xiangdong said seriously.
Li Zhan was stunned and said, "Brigadier, what are you talking about? You have also met Ying Wanjun. Isn't she my fiancée? I don't have any lifestyle problems. Niu Jun and I are school friends.
I'm one grade above her and she calls me senior brother and I call her junior sister, it's that simple of a relationship."
"It has been spread in the base that you, Captain Li Zhan, are hugging each other on the left and right, and there is another one in the middle. A fly can't bite a seamless egg. You said that you don't have that behavior and everyone will spread the word about you like this?" Xue Xiangdong said coldly.
say.
It was a headache for him. Among the few things that he and Bao Guanhua had agreed on from the beginning and had not argued about since they formed a team, Li Zhan's life style was one of them. This was a very promising young man.
It is definitely a big crisis for cadres.
Don't let your wonderful future be delayed because of poor handling of the relationship between men and women.
Li Zhan simply suffered all the injustices in the world. He lamented, "I really want to cut my face with a knife. It's not my fault that I'm handsome."
"Okay, don't tell me this until dinner is served. Tell me, what's the matter with you?" Xue Xiangdong asked.
Li Zhan was stunned for a moment, "Yes, what do I want to report?"
