You were asked to repeat your senior year of high school, and you took advantage of the opportunity

Chapter 456 Let’s go to Gaomi!

The interior of the Shenfei factory is very large.

The facilities are also very complete.

It's like it's completely independent from the Fengtian city area.

Jiang Chen stayed in the guesthouse for about three days.

But these three days weren’t completely free of things to do!

For example, Cheng Ziang would take him around the factory, and even the R&D center, front-line workshops and other "units" that required high confidentiality were completely open to Jiang Chen.

This is not because Shen Fei is careless.

But there is no need to keep it secret from Jiang Chen.

To Shen Fei, Jiang Chen was an outsider, a "wheat picker" who rented two drones to do short-term work.

But Jiang Chen will help Shenfei test-fly the most advanced FC-31 Falcon fighter in a while.

Even the top-secret Falcon fighter jet was allowed to test-fly.

What is there to keep secret about a mere R&D center and a front-line workshop?
In addition to visiting everywhere.

On the first day, Jiang Chen underwent another very detailed physical examination.

This physical examination was much stricter than the one at Jilin University First Hospital.

Almost all of Jiang Chen's internal organs and body functions were checked.

So the test results didn't come out until the third day.

Shen Fei even specially invited an authoritative expert in the domestic rehabilitation field from the capital to help Jiang Chen with a full physical examination and rehabilitation training.

After the expert saw his physical examination results.

Just say directly, "This kid is as strong as a calf and does not need any further rehabilitation or recuperation."

Experts also marveled that there is such a perfect body in the world.

If someone hadn't stopped me.

It is estimated that this expert took Jiang Chen back to the laboratory and sliced ​​him for research.

Of course.

This is just a joke.

these three days.

Several leaders of Shen Fei met with Jiang Chen specifically.

All of these leaders and experts are well-known figures in the Republic's Air Force.

One or two of them even had umbrellas held by the general.

However, these leaders and experts only encouraged Jiang Chen with a few words and did not have a deep conversation.

After all, they are too busy.

Although the test flight of the fifth-generation stealth fighter is indeed a difficult problem, it seems insignificant compared with the highly confidential work that they are specifically responsible for.

Fourth day.

Nine in the morning.

Jiang Chen finished his breakfast.

After coming out of the cafeteria, I strolled along a main road.

At this moment.

Cheng Ziang hurried over.

When he saw Jiang Chen, he was overjoyed and said quickly, "I just went to the guesthouse to look for you but couldn't find you. I guessed that you came to the cafeteria. Come with me quickly and go to the room to pack your luggage. Then I will take you to Beiling Airport. Director Zhou and others are waiting for you at Beiling Airport."

The 'Director Zhou' he mentioned.

He is the deputy director of the Shenyang FC-31 Falcon fighter project team office.

It is responsible for managing logistics.

Similar to the deputy chief steward.

Director Zhou Jianhua had met Jiang Chen several times in the past two days, so Jiang Chen naturally knew him.

"Are we going to Beiling Airport to catch a plane now?" Jiang Chen asked as he and Cheng Ziang hurried back to the guesthouse.

"Yes." Cheng Ziang nodded.

"Then where is the destination? Go directly to the Inner Mongolia Flight Test Brigade Base?" Jiang Chen asked again.

"No, go to Gaomi."

"Gaomi? Gaomi City, Qilu Province?"

"Correct."

"Ah, aren't you going to test-fly the FC-31 Falcon? Why are you going to Gaomi City?"

"You are asking the blind for advice. I just received the order and I have to go along, so I am also confused now."

"Uh! Okay!" Yes.

The flight test of the FC-31 Falcon fighter is still carried out at the test flight brigade.

Although the test flight brigade cannot participate in the test flight of this fighter, there is no problem in providing venues and equipment to lend to Shenfei.

And it’s not that the test flight team is unreasonable and doesn’t want to make things easier for Shenfei.

The FC-31 Falcon project did not win the bid, so it is only Shenfei's own project. In recent years, the new equipment of the Dongda Air Force has exploded, so there are too many models that need to be tested by the test flight team. How can they have the energy to help Shenfei test the FC-31 Falcon?

Many people would think that the Falcon became a self-funded project of Shenyang Aircraft Corporation because it failed to compete with Chengdu Aircraft Corporation's J-20.

Actually not.

The fighter jet that Shenfei used to compete with the J-20 was the J-14 Snowy Owl.

Like the J-20 Vily, the J-14 Snowy Owl also uses a canard design, which enables it to achieve a 65-degree stall angle of attack and high lift three-dimensional performance.

Therefore, if we only look at the maneuverability, the J-14's paper design indicators are higher than those of the J-20 and even the F-22.

But here's the thing.

Why does a fifth-generation aircraft need such high maneuverability?
Dogfighting with enemy aircraft?
Only someone with a brain problem would use a fifth-generation aircraft to engage in a bayonet fight with enemy aircraft.

Therefore, because its design concept is relatively conservative and its stealth performance is not as good as that of the J-20, the J-14 Snowy Owl lost in the competition.

Shen Fei learned from his mistakes.

Learn from your failures.

So just a few years later, the second stealth fighter, the FC-31 Falcon, was re-launched.

The stealth and avionics systems of the FC-31 Falcon far exceed those of the J-14 Snowy Owl, and its performance and parameters are on par with the J-20.

But the University of Tokyo already has an air superiority heavy stealth fighter.

It would be a waste to have another fighter with the same positioning.

Military spending has increased in recent years.

But no matter how many there are, you can’t do this.

not to mention.

The J-20 is a heavy fighter, while the FC-31 Falcon is only a medium-sized one.

Therefore, in terms of hard power, the FC-31 Falcon still lags behind the J-20.
It’s just that Shenfei has invested huge manpower, material and financial resources in the fifth-generation aircraft project.

If I just give up like this.

Not only the losses are huge.

Moreover, it will never recover from the competition with Chengfei and will be completely reduced to a runner-up.

That is why Shenfei still raised funds on its own to develop this fighter jet even though the Air Force gave up the bid.

Since we can’t open up the domestic market.

Then open up the international market.

Since the Air Force doesn't want it.

Then give it to the Navy.

people!

You can't be suffocated to death by urine.

Sometimes, changing your mindset can lead to a bright future.

The Shenfei factory is adjacent to Beiling Airport.

However, the factory is quite large, so it takes about 30 minutes to get from the factory to the airport.

Jiang Chen hurried back to the guesthouse room, threw his luggage into the bag, and rushed downstairs with the bag.

After getting in the car.

The driver immediately started the car and drove away.

When Jiang Chen and Cheng Ziang arrived at the airport, a Y-9 medium transport aircraft had already started its engine and was waiting on the apron.

"Director Zhou, Jiang Chen has arrived." Cheng Ziang got out of the car and immediately saluted a middle-aged officer with the rank of colonel.

Jiang Chen also came down carrying his bag.

Come over and salute.

Director Zhou returned the greeting and said, "Get on the plane first. If you have any questions, I will explain them to you once you are on the plane."

It was as if he had seen through Jiang Chen's little thoughts.
