Big Time 1958

"I didn't ask that the products you must come up with must outperform their American counterparts. Of course, it is the best to outperform. Even if we are temporarily at a level, we can slowly improve. But time is short, and the enemy's The new generation of fighter jets are already in service, and ours have not yet gone to heaven. This is allowed. From the perspective of time urgency, I am indeed forcing you." Shelov recovered his spirit and said calmly, "Everyone is in your own field. Authorities, I believe you should understand this. Although the world is generally peaceful, we cannot deny the confrontation between us and the United States. The air field is only one field under the general environment, and we must catch up with the United States in any field."

   A new type of fighter appeared, and it was normal to have some flaws at the beginning. When the F15 first came out, the reliability was very poor. It also has the title of airport guardian, and its reliability is far inferior to that of the F14. Therefore, some pilots have higher evaluations of the contemporary F14, but if the F15 fighter in the 21st century is still Not as good as the F14, it can't be justified, unless the F15 fighter has not improved in three decades.

  The success of the aircraft is of course somewhat related to the wind tunnel, but the future adaptability needs to be improved after service. Anyway, Serov believes that as long as the Soviet Union stops jumping, the United States will definitely not be able to gain an advantage easily. In terms of aerodynamics, the Soviet Union is still ahead of the United States in this regard, and it is not an exaggeration to say that each has its own merits.

The basic design index set by the Soviet Air Force for the light advanced fighter is that it can destroy the distance from 200 meters to 60 kilometers under any weather conditions and harsh electronic interference environment, in the full altitude range and in various flight profiles. air target. Specific to the air superiority combat mission, the Soviet Air Force analyzed its air combat experience and the development trend of military aircraft, requiring that light and advanced fighter jets must be capable of both maneuvering combat and over-the-horizon air combat.

  The biggest feature of the aerodynamic design of the MiG Design Bureau is its well-designed wing-body fusion. The main fuselage and the inner section of the wing are smooth and excessive, and the front end of the inner section of the wing forms a side strip with a swept angle of 73.5 degrees. The front edge of the outer wing of the wing has a sweep angle of 42 degrees, an aspect ratio of 3:5, and a dihedral angle of 2 degrees. The lift provided by the fusion wing body accounts for 40% of the total lift.

   Shelov knew at a glance that this was the 29th MiG in history. As for Sukhoi's advanced heavy fighter plan, the fighter adopts wing-body fusion technology, cantilevered mid-wing, with smooth curved and forward slats outside the wing root, double vertical tail normal layout, wedge-shaped air intake located in The front and bottom of the wing-body fusion body have good aerodynamic performance.

As soon as the sketch is taken out, Serov can recognize it. It was sent to the major design bureaus by himself. The intelligence of the new generation of NATO weapons was handed over to the major design bureaus for analysis. It turns out that in the history of the Soviet Union's land, sea and air equipment in the 1980s, the chairman of the KGB deceived all the Soviet design bureaus.

  The chairman's deception can't be considered deception. Anyway, the KGB is in his own hands, and no one can find out the truth. As for asking Shelov to make suggestions for improvement, what a joke, if a lower social class has this ability, will it be a mess in the past life. Besides, so many Soviet design bureaus will not design according to the existing scientific standards? Do they all eat rice?

What's wrong with the fighter, and what improvements are needed? It can be improved after it is fully in service. If the chairman of the KGB insists on laying hands to guide the experts, the probability of disintegration in the air during the test flight is much higher than the probability of becoming better. times.

   At Serov's level, not to mention working **** third-generation fighter jets, it is unknown whether he can design a plane during World War II or not.

"At least the planes in the sketches are all beautiful, and I believe they must be good planes. In this way, it's almost time to stay in Lubyanka for a meal." Shelov patted a few designers on the shoulders, he still had something to do Said, but the premise is that the meal cannot be delayed, and the next thing to talk about has nothing to do with fighter jets.

  Lubyanka's food is more famous in Moscow. It turns out that the KGB is also quite good at stealing recipes. It is not ashamed to improve his environment within the scope of work. Attacking several plates of material, Serov filled his stomach at a very amazing speed. After returning from Iraq, he was confused by the smell of mutton and has been vegetarian recently.

"Long story short, I need a new type of wide-body airliner, not one of those flashy supersonic airliners that are just something we use to compete with the West, and if the skies of the motherland were all flying with that kind of thing, varnish Money is a huge start." Touching his mouth, Serov made his request directly.

The supersonic passenger aircraft in his mouth is the Tu-144 supersonic passenger aircraft designed by the Tupolev Design Bureau, as well as the Concorde supersonic passenger aircraft under research in France. The supersonic passenger aircraft is due to high fuel consumption, short range, and noise. Technical problems such as serious pollution and design defects have been unable to achieve breakthrough progress.

   Shelov did not have the spirit of a fool to move mountains, and used his identity as the Central Presidium to forcibly promote the development of supersonic passenger aircraft. Who knows how many people will be killed by this thing. He will not interfere in the air competition that has been carried out, but it is impossible to expand production, and supersonic passenger aircraft is not economical at all.

   "Chairman Serov, our design bureau is studying this aspect, and I believe that the world will achieve results soon." The designer of the Ilyushin Design Bureau first excused, "We will definitely produce the finished product as soon as possible and conduct a test flight."

"I didn't urge the test flight as soon as possible. Passenger planes and fighter jets are different, and safety is the most important indicator." Shelov took a few sips of water and burped, "I hope that the development of wide-body passenger planes will make more progress. , Tupolev Design Bureau and Antonov Design Bureau, can help. Our enemy in civilian use is not your few competing design bureaus, but the United States and Europe, we are fighting for the whole world market.”

  Wide-body airliner is a huge leap in aviation technology. Large capacity, long range, fast loading and high productivity. In a busy airport, resources are tight at the time of take-off and landing. A wide-body and a small aircraft occupy the same time, but the economic and social benefits brought by them are very different. If you want to study, study this, instead of thinking about competing with the French, you don't need the Soviet Union to compete in this area, and the future Concorde will not be able to operate on its own.

The major design bureaus of the Soviet Union have a competitive relationship. Even if it is not a life-and-death relationship like the major companies in the United States, it is only limited in strength. In fact, it is a matter of money. Just as a few engineers from the design bureaus wanted to speak, they were directly blocked by Serov. Let’s do research, I can get the funds, anyway, our intelligence funds are all brought back from foreign countries, and they were originally used for our own development. Once a wide-body passenger aircraft with good reliability appears, it will also serve the motherland.”

   Sending these engineers away, Serov thought about whether he should talk to the four major tank factories. After thinking about it, it seems that this is not necessary. Who dares to say that Soviet tanks are not advanced? It is definitely the fate of the Soviet Red Army, at least Turkey absolutely agrees with what he said. The Turkish army has just washed the Soviets with its own blood.

In the Western 74 exercise, the Warsaw Pact sent more than five combined arms of various arms, and the Soviet Union used air power for support. exercise. For the first time, the tank army composed of the new T72 was dispatched to attack the imaginary enemy with armor, supplemented by the rocket battalion in the territory of the group army to carry out precise tactical strikes, and to cover the follow-up motorized infantry to continue to advance. A large number of airborne assault brigades appeared in the exercise. The entire exercise was organized by the Warsaw Pact. Command of the Joint Operations Command.

On the broad front, the implementation of multi-point breakthroughs caused the collapse of the enemy's defense lines. At the same time, the rapid penetration into the enemy's depths, cutting off the enemy's supplies, occupying the political center of the transportation hub, seizing the airport, and destroying the command and communication center all achieved the expected results. After the exercise, Soviet Defense Minister Grechko, Secretary of the Central Committee Ustinov, and General Political Commissar Serov congratulated the Warsaw Pact member states participating in the exercise.

In the part of bragging, Serov has always been unwilling to lag behind. Not only is he more confident than all Soviet generals, but he is also full of emotion. This time, the Western 74 exercise has become a different look in his mouth. The Warsaw Pact countries With the same number of military forces, the combat power is definitely no longer under the Soviet Union.

   If the Soviet Union can use 500,000 troops to kill Turkey in a week, then the participating Warsaw Pact countries can also do the same. The Warsaw Pact armed forces are not only quantitative, but also better than NATO countries in quality.

   "Yura, aren't you going too far!" Ustinov said to Serov in secret. In view of the good relationship between the two, Ustinov was embarrassed to directly say that Serov's bragging rights were a bit too much, but the meaning was the same.

   "NATO countries have lost Greece and Turkey, and the number disadvantage is even greater. This time it depends on whether the general secretary can handle Greece. You must know that Greece is not small due to the economic crisis." Serov replied with his head tilted.

   Just two days ago, the Turkish soldiers who lost all their supplies surrendered on the island of Cyprus. Of course, this was a difficult choice. You must know that they had just expelled the Greeks before. If there was no way, they would definitely fight to the end.

   The problem is that the Soviet Union took over the old nest of Turkey. In this case, Greece used the navy to continuously transport troops to the island, and finally achieved a quantitative advantage. The quality advantage itself was in Greece, and began to compress the Turkish occupation area northward. One has domestic support, the other has no domestic support, and the fate is already doomed. The war between Greece and Turkey is over. (To be continued~^~)
