Red Soviet Union

Chapter 11: award

"Boom, boom." In the distant sky, there was a sound of a propeller stirring the airflow.

When he came back from the bar, it was already dark, and he threw the drunk Belenko on the bed. Andrei couldn't sleep alone, and habitually ran around the track, just when he had just run half a lap , heard the sound in the sky.

Andre raised his head, first saw the navigation lights, then the outline gradually became clear, the belly was a little big, the top was a four-blade propeller, and there was a porthole in the lower part of the front, which was similar to the Mi-171 equipped in China in the previous life, just scan At a glance, Andrei can recognize it, this should be the prototype of the Mi-171, the Mi-8 Hippo helicopter, and the huge belly looks very much like a hippo.

The Mi-8 is almost the Kalashnikov in the helicopter kingdom. The total production volume ranks first in the world. The Soviets used the Mi-8 and improved the Mi-17, and the Mi-171 is the export model of the Mi-17. .

The helicopter was painted in military camouflage. Andre watched the helicopter slowly land. Before it came to a stop, the hatch on the side opened, and some technical experts hurried out from inside.

It seems that the United States has exerted pressure on Moscow through diplomatic channels, and Moscow is not sure whether it can keep the electronic reconnaissance aircraft. Therefore, in this case, it is necessary to race against time to study the EP-3 electronic jammer. . And these technicians are not from Moscow, but from Amur Komsomolsk in the northern Khabarovsk Krai.

In later generations, Gongqingcheng was also well known by military fans, because it was an important production base for Russia's Su-27 fighter jets, and it was a characteristic industrial city.

Now, Factory 126 in Komsomolsk, also known as Gagarin Far East Machine Factory, is also the aircraft production complex of Komsomolsk on the Amur River in later generations. It has begun to produce a large number of military aircraft for the Soviet Union, mainly designed by Sukhoi. Bureau products, such as the Su-7 and Su-17, and, just this year, Factory 126 substantially improved its production equipment in preparation for the production of the new T-10 prototype by the Sukhoi Design Bureau, Likewise, there are a large number of Sukhoi Design Bureau engineers here.

When they got the news, the technicians of the Sukhoi Design Bureau and the 126 Factory immediately flew to the Sokolovka base by helicopter.

Looking at these technicians, Andre admires them very much. In his previous life, he was a test pilot. Naturally, he knows that these technicians who develop aircraft are the strong backing of national defense. It is precisely because of their selfless dedication that they have a strong national defense!

"Lieutenant Andre, the commander is looking for you everywhere." Just as Andre saw the helicopter land, the voice of a ground staff came from his ear.

Commander looking for himself? It's so late, what's the matter? Could it be that he knew that he and Belenko were drinking? However, the commander also canceled his and Belenko's combat readiness duty anyway, nothing happened, and drinking is not a mistake.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Taking another look at the EP-3 in the distance, Andre got into a car driven by the ground crew.

"Report." At the door of the commander's office, Andre shouted loudly.

"Come in." The voice of Koridub came from inside, and when the voice stopped, Andre knew that Koridub was in a good mood at this time.

Pushing open the door, he saw Kozhedub looking at himself with a smile, and said, "Andrei, Moscow's advice has been settled. Because of the heroic attack of you and Belenko, the Americans were intercepted. The EP-3 reconnaissance plane will be awarded a third-class merit, and at the same time, the Far East Military Region Command has awarded you a bronze flight badge for your superb flying skills."

award! After the intelligence report went up, Kuoridub was still a little uneasy. This time, he caused a lot of trouble. If the above was questioned, the responsibility would be Andre. After all, it was Andre who flew the fighter plane and collided with the Americans. However, the upper management did not hold them accountable. Instead, they praised the incident and awarded Andre a flying badge!

This made Kuoridub very happy. This kind of meritorious deed is the glory of the entire 513 regiment!

"Report Commander, can I resume combat duty tomorrow?" Andre asked. As a motivated pilot, it is the most honorable thing to be able to fly into the sky and perform tasks. own this right!

"Of course you can." Kozhedub said: "Today the ground crew overhauled and found that the engine of No. 032 was faulty. This is the reason why you stalled and entered the spiral in the middle of the flight today."

Engine failure! No wonder Andre, who has a long MiG-25 flight hours, is still in a spin! However, even if you can be on duty tomorrow, I'm afraid there will be no plane available, right? Do you have a backup engine for you to replace?

As if guessing Andre's question, Kozhedub said: "This afternoon, a newest MiG-25PD production model flew in from the Mikoyan Design Bureau. This aircraft has been painted on. With the 032 logo, it will be your landline in the future."

The new MiG-25! Andre was stunned for a moment: "What about my original?"

"It has already been applied for scrap." Kozhdub said: "The ground crew also gave up maintenance, and they are waiting to be sent to Leningrad for refurbishment."

Andre was deeply speechless. This huge empire, the production system of the planned economy, is so irrespective of the cost! In all aspects of society, there is definitely more than one place to waste.

The aircraft that Andre originally flew was the original production model of the MiG-25P, also known as the 1971 production model, product 84, NATO codenamed "Fox-A", compared to the design model, the vertical tail and pelvic fin area were increased. , the wingtip stabilizer plate was removed, the electronic equipment bay was enlarged, and the nose was lengthened.

Although it is called the 1971 production model, it was actually produced in 1972. It has only served in the Sokolovka base for four years, and now it is about to be returned!

Thinking back to his previous life, until the 21st century, there were still old J-6 fighter jets in service in the Air Force. Andre was very emotional. The Red Empire was a waste!

It is located in the Far East, and across the sea is the US garrison. At the peak of the Cold War, it is understandable that the front-line troops will be equipped with new fighter jets. Anyway, Andrea is still an ordinary pilot. He just sighed with emotion. , immersed in joy again.

The new MiG-25PD, what is the improvement of this aircraft compared to the original MiG-25P? It is best to replace the Cyclone-A radar that has no other performance except high power. If there is a Tomcat's AWG-9 radar, it would be great!

Regarding the electronics industry of the Soviet Union, Andre couldn't help but want to complain.

"Report, the technicians from Factory 126 are here." At this moment, the ground crew came in and reported to Kozhdubu.
