906 Five-machine formation flying cobra, can do it, specially approved to drop one every year
"Who sees the real combat capability during the flight performance? The bomb load capacity of the Super-7a is not too bad, right?"
Xie Kai sighed.
The combat capability is not strong, this is a flaw.
The Super-7a was originally a light fighter, and was positioned by Xie Kai in the category of advanced trainer aircraft.
The two-seater version of the model is still in a blower tunnel, and it has not been completely finalized yet. In addition, the four-degree fax system has not been installed yet. Xie Kai really doesn't know whether the cobra maneuver occurs due to an accident or whether the Super-7 itself has such maneuverability.
Everything has to be done after chatting with Tu Lang, and asked him if he did this on purpose or just to make a fool of himself.
"Okay, I'll give you half an hour." Zheng Yucheng felt that Xie Kai could not have any gains.
It’s better to use some regular actions to go on stage with Americans, as long as the performance gap is not too big.
Xie Kai immediately asked someone to take him to see Tu Lang.
The base airport terminal is actually an Air Force headquarters.
Since its establishment, Xie Kai has never been here forever. The terminal building is built on the mountain. It is impossible to see it outside, so it is leaning against the factory in front.
In the confinement room, Xie Kai met Tu Lang.
Under thirty years old, he was wearing a flat head and a short and thin man with a national face.
"Do you know that the mistake you made is serious?" Xie Kai didn't say nonsense and asked Tu Lang directly.
He wanted to know whether Tu Lang accidentally made a cobra maneuver, or he knew that Super-7a could do such a maneuver.
"Are you Xie Kai?" Tu Lang looked at Xie Kai with a curious look on his face, as if he didn't care about his mistakes at all, or he didn't care about the serious consequences. "I heard about your name before, but I didn't expect that the first time I disobeyed the order."
When he said this, his face was still full of smiles.
"If there is no reasonable explanation this time, an explanation that satisfies the base leader and your future superiors, in this life, you will probably never expect to touch fighter planes again, and you don't even think of piston-type planes..." Xie Kai looked calm. "As for whether it was your first time to disobey orders, I think you know better than anyone else. He was grounded for various maneuvering actions that violated regulations before and finally retired. I'm very curious, how did you get into the Super-7a test flight team? Could it be that he is really a relative of 611 chief squad Tu Jida?"
The embarrassment on Tu Lang's face flashed.
He really didn't know that Xie Kai would know him.
He did hear Xie Kai's name before.
f-14 was brought back by the young man in front of him.
Unfortunately, in the end, he still did not become a pilot of the F-14.
"I am not a relative of President Tu, and he doesn't even know me..." Tu Lang said awkwardly.
Xie Kai refused to comment. He came not to ask Tu Lang if he belonged to President Tu’s relatives.
"You are seriously violating discipline this time and being dealt with, that's certain. As for whether you can continue to touch the fighter planes later, it depends on whether the questions you answered satisfy the leaders." Xie Kai did not say nonsense, "When you came down, the fighter plane was obviously stalled. How did you get rid of the tail spin state and keep the plane flying smoothly?"
Even though Xie Kai thought that the biggest possibility was that this guy came out of the sky, he still had certain expectations.
Before Pugachev flew to cobra maneuver, the Soviet Su-27 carried out a lot of verification work, computer simulation, aerial test bench simulation, and even accurate to what speed and movements per second. Finally, it created a super maneuvering movement that was extremely coquettish but not very effective in combat, but could well demonstrate the maneuverability of the fighter jet.
Super -7a, all this is unexpected.
Tu Lang looked at Xie Kai in shock.
He originally didn't believe that such a young man could ask such professional questions.
The facts made him unable to refute.
For a moment, he didn't know how to answer.
He was already ready to accept punishment and even never faced a fighter plane for the rest of his life.
But Xie Kai’s problems exceeded his thoughts.
"All of this was originally designed. At the beginning, quickly pull the joystick backwards to keep the aircraft in shape, then push the joystick forward and press the nose down..." Tu Lang answered honestly.
"Who designed it?" Xie Kai hurriedly asked.
Tu Lang didn't know what Xie Kai was doing, and said, "I heard Mr. Huo say that the Super-7a has strong maneuverability, especially the canard layout in front, which allows domestic fighter jets to do many maneuvers that cannot be made... Before, I flew the J-7 and J-8, and both wanted to do such a move, but unfortunately, I fell two planes..."
Hearing this, Xie Kai looked strange.
This guy is a weird guy.
In China in the 1970s and 1980s, two fighter jets were dropped, but they were not dealt with seriously. Either they had a strong backstage relationship or had the skills that were so strong that the superiors had to spare their talents.
At present, it should be the latter.
"If you let you open again, can you still make it?" Xie Kai asked.
"It should be possible! The maneuverability of this fighter is much stronger than what Mr. Huo and his friends introduced to us. Especially the low-altitude and low-speed performance, flying against the ground at a height of ten meters is not a problem..." Tu Lang said with his eyes full of expectations, and he licked his lips with his tongue.
Xie Kai did not answer him or make any promises.
He turned around and left the confinement room.
Even Tu Lang patted the doors and windows in the confinement room and kept shouting, he did not hesitate at all.
When they arrived in the conference room in the airport terminal, Zheng Yucheng and the others were already having a meeting.
8 domestic F-14 core seed pilot instructors, 4 Super-7a pilot seed instructors sat with a group of bigwigs from the base management committee, and were still emphasizing discipline.
Xie Kai didn't say a word during the entire meeting.
Because no one of these pilots could come up with a solution that satisfies him.
Before they transferred from the experimental airport of 132 to this side, they already knew the missions facing the entire flight team.
"There is no suitable solution, and now it is a troublesome." Zheng Yucheng and others saw that the meeting was not successful. The pilots flew for a long time and simply parted the meeting.
Everyone's faces were covered with frost.
"In front of the Americans, a five-machine formation cobra maneuvered!" Xie Kai said this after careful consideration.
Five fighter jets fly cobra maneuver at the same time, which is far more shocking than one fighter jet flying.
When Cobra Maneuver first appeared, Pugachev was the only one flying at the Paris Air Show.
Now, what Xie Kai wants is five Super-7a to fly at the same time.
There is no problem with the maneuverability that the aerodynamic layout of the aircraft can provide. The rest is the quality of the pilot.
As a member of the test flight brigade, no test pilot has a quality that is not strong enough.
The only key now is that there is not much time.
Flying formations and other things are all pediatric problems. The key is that during the formation, all aircraft keep moving consistently, which requires a lot of time to contact and all pilots cooperate tacitly.
"Is this useful?" Wang Guilin asked.
Zheng Yucheng and others shook their heads. Xie Kai's idea was too naive.
The maneuvering movements they saw before were too dangerous and there was no training. Five fighter jets did this maneuver at the same time. As long as the pilot of one fighter was slightly slow to operate, according to the situation just now, it would be the result of the plane being destroyed and the person being killed.
"This is the only one we can turn the tables." Xie Kai said, "I asked Tu Lang before, and he said that all this was planned before. He had no chance to do such a thing in the test flight in Rongcheng..."
Xie Kai introduced the situation.
Bai Yanjun on the side couldn't hold on his face, but he couldn't explain it.
He really let him go.
"His skills are indeed very good, but the bad ones are too chaotic." Bai Yanjun explained.
Tu Lang is not a relative of Tu Jida, but this guy made mistakes before, so that he would not be completely grounded.
"How many planes did he fall?" Xie Kai asked.
"He fell over the plane?" Yue Lin's brows frowned.
No matter how excellent such a pilot is, he cannot be asked.
Every fighter is precious. So far, there are not enough fighter jets in China for pilots to train and use. On the one hand, the cost is too high, and on the other hand, the Air Force is insufficient funds.
This kid actually dropped more than one fighter plane!
"3. One J-8, two J-7s..." Bai Yanjun wanted to find a crack to drill down. "When the Super-7a test flight, there were not enough test pilots on the 132 side, and the F-14 no longer needed test flight personnel, so I got him there. I never thought he was so brave."
If he had known this would happen before, Bai Yanjun would not have let Tu Lang go to Rongcheng no matter what.
"If the entire aircraft formation does such a maneuvering action, it will be very shocking." Yue Lin has more knowledge of goods than Zheng Yucheng and the others. "There is not enough time now, so there is no time for them to practice. Moreover, we only have 5 aircrafts over-7a, and no one of them can afford to lose any loss."
Zheng Yuchengzhen doesn't think this maneuver has any meaning.
Tu Lang felt that he would kick out as soon as possible for a black sheep who did not obey orders.
"As long as he can fly, I can use my own rights to allow him to fall a plane every year!" Wang Guilin was now furious.
He doesn't want to be embarrassed in front of Americans.
When they went to the United States to purchase engines, the Americans were arrogant and even asked the Chinese delegation whether Chinese planes could go to the sky without their American engines.
For the current 404, not to mention falling one fighter plane every year, even if it falls three or five every year, you won’t care too much.
"If you want to fall the plane, if you want to understand the ultimate performance of the entire fighter, or even test the ejection performance of the flight seat, you must fall. After installing our own turbofan-6, the chance of falling is greater..." Xie Kai also agreed with Wang Guilin's words.
It is impossible for any fighter to have more mature technology and not drop a few aircraft.
