Liao Province Songling Machinery Factory!

While Zhou Yang was busy with some trivial matters in the village, a meeting concerning the life and death of the J-8 fighter was being held in the large conference room of Songling Machinery Factory.

Speaking of Songling Machinery Factory, not many people may know about it.

But when it comes to its other name - "Liaoshen Aircraft Manufacturing Factory", I am afraid it has to be described as thunderous.

It was the scientific researchers of this factory who, after more than four years of hard work, successfully developed the famous "Eighth Master" in the history of the Air Force - the J-8 fighter jet.

It's just that the atmosphere in the conference room of Songling Machinery Factory was a bit solemn today, and everyone's brows were furrowed.

"Crack!"

At the main seat, an old man slammed the table and said, "Comrades, why can't we solve this jitter problem?"

"Look, it has been more than seven years since we succeeded in the test flight, but we are still far away from the actual finalized mass production. Now there are more and more problems. How do we explain this to the party and the country?"

After hearing the words of the leader above, everyone at the venue fell silent.

Their entire team has been studying this problem for more than a year, but they have still been unable to find the cause, let alone a solution.

This resulted in the J-8 fighter being unable to fly faster than the speed of sound for a long time, which also caused doubts about the performance of this fighter aircraft.

At this time, the leader on the stage looked at a middle-aged man next to him and said: "Lao Gu, you are the leader of the design team, tell me what you think?"

Gu Zhenhua, the leader of the aircraft design team, stood up immediately and said: "The cause of the aircraft's transonic buffet failure was not found in time, which affected the finalization of the aircraft. This is my responsibility, and I request the organization to punish me!"

"What's the use of punishing you? Now we are talking about how to solve the problem!"

Then the factory leader said again: "I don't care what method you use, the aircraft transonic buffet failure must be solved within three months, otherwise all of us will be punished!"

"yes!"

Although he still felt a little unsure, Gu Zhenhua still said loudly.

"In addition, I would like to convey another notification to everyone. After research and decision by the leaders of the Equipment Department, the research on improved models of J-8 fighter jets will be restarted."

Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden buzz in the originally quiet venue!

Many people were whispering to each other and whispering to the people next to them. Everyone looked happy and almost cheered loudly.

After all, the restart of the project means the transfer of funds, personnel and various resources, and it also means that they have another research and development project, which is rare good news for any scientific research institute.

"Bah bang bang!"

The factory leader on the stage patted the table again, and then said loudly: "What are you excited about? Do you know that this time, the development of improved models of the J-7 and the J-9 fighter will be restarted at the same time?"

"If our research and development speed remains as it is now, once the J-7 or J-9 project makes breakthrough progress, do you think our J-8 fighter can continue to be developed?"

The venue fell silent instantly!

Fighters are different from ordinary commodities. A successful test flight does not mean that the product can be finalized and mass-produced.

On the contrary, the test flight can only prove that the previous theory is advisable and the research direction is correct, indicating that it is necessary to continue to develop and improve this thing.

But there is still a long way to go before it can be mass-produced and equipped for military service.

Although the current J-8 fighter has been successfully tested for more than seven years, it has not yet received approval from the aviation product finalization committee to finalize the aircraft.

As for the improved models of the J-8, most of them are still on drawings, not even real objects.

As the factory leader said, once a breakthrough is made in the J-7 improvement project and the J-9 fighter research and development project, the research and development results they have worked hard for for more than ten years are likely to be wasted and destroyed.

At this time, Gu Zhenhua said again: "Leader, I can't guarantee anything else, but I can guarantee that everyone in our team will work harder, and I also firmly believe that our J-8 fighter must be the first to break through.

It must also be the most advanced fighter jet in the country!"

"This sounds encouraging, but just shouting slogans is not enough. From now on, all human, financial and material resources in the whole factory will be tilted towards your research team. I hope you will not let down the expectations of the factory and solve all those problems as soon as possible.

Yes, passed the product finalization review!”

"yes"

While the meeting was going on, a young man who looked like a secretary suddenly quietly opened the door and walked in, and then whispered a few words into Gu Zhenhua's ear.

Afterwards, Gu Zhenhua immediately stood up and said: "Leader, the Equipment Department sent someone to send a top-secret information, and I have to sign for it in person!"

"Go for it!"

Gu Zhenhua nodded, and then hurriedly left the conference room.

In the office of the design team, when Gu Zhenhua received the document bag marked top secret from the staff of the superior department, he immediately checked the integrity of the document according to the procedures.

After confirming that there was no problem, he signed his name on the receipt document!

After being sent to the superior staff, Gu Zhenhua carefully opened the documents.

He was very curious about why they didn't even say hello in advance when confidential documents from above were sent again this time.

However, when he opened the folder and took out the files inside, he was immediately attracted by a line of large characters on the cover - J-8B Improvement Plan!

When he first saw this line of big characters, Gu Zhenhua's reaction was - who is so loud!

It’s not surprising that Gu Zhenhua thinks so. You must know that the current J-8 fighter itself still has many problems, such as transonic buffet failure, major technical problems such as engine shutdown in the air, etc.!

If these technical problems cannot be solved, it is still unknown whether the J-8 fighter will die on the way, and where will the J-8 B come from.

Besides, their J-8 improved version was only studied for a period of time before being stopped. It can only be said that they have a general idea for improvement, but nothing else.

This guy is so good, he already has an improvement plan for the J-8B. Isn’t this nonsense!

However, when I thought about it, this was specially sent by someone from the Equipment Department, and the level of confidentiality was quite high, so I had to check it out myself.

Don't let your superiors ask you about it, but your eyes will be darkened and you won't know anything.

Even if you want to refute the other party, you have to know where the other party is wrong.

Ever since, with this idea in mind, Gu Zhenhua carefully read this fighter aircraft improvement plan.

It’s just that you don’t know it by looking at it. After watching it for a short while, Gu Zhenhua was shocked by the plan in front of him.

This designer's idea is simply too naive. He actually wants to install an advanced pulse Doppler radar on the J-8 fighter jet.

Let’s not talk about whether this kind of advanced radar can be obtained. Even if it is purchased through diplomatic channels, the price will definitely be ridiculously expensive.

They had tried to test a certain country before, saying they wanted to buy their pulse Doppler radar, but they refused without even offering a price.

Even if they are willing to sell it now, they cannot be purchased in large quantities domestically!

That's all. According to this "genius"'s idea, the entire nose part of the fighter plane must be completely modified, and the existing avionics system must be completely replaced.

Even the body parts need to be adjusted accordingly!

According to his thinking, this is not a modification of the J-8, but a completely new fighter aircraft.

Therefore, after reading it for a while, Gu Zhenhua felt that this plan was completely sensational and meaningless.

However, at this moment, a paragraph in the document caught his attention: There are some minor flaws in the fuselage design of the J-8 fighter, which may cause high-speed jitter in the airflow diversion area. It is recommended that the improved model adopt local modifications to eliminate the problem of airflow separation.

After reading this passage, Gu Zhenhua felt as if he had been enlightened.

Things that I had never understood before suddenly became enlightened!

He immediately locked all the documents in the safe and hurried to the conference room
Chapter completed!
