Chapter 1986: The Nature of the Problem (Part 1)
While all the radar data along the route was transferred to the headquarters, the chief also knew the general cause and effect.
"He drove this plane that I don't know when he made it to the front line to rescue our soldiers?" The chief was silent for a while when he said this, and suddenly asked: "If you are soldiers on the front line, facing the current situation, Do you want our motherland to rescue us like this?"
The chief's connection is connected to the air force headquarters and the frontline headquarters. Among the people who reported were General He and General Liu. Hearing the chief's question at this moment, both General He and General Liu were silent and did not answer.
This question does not need to be answered at all, everyone knows the answer in their hearts. Who doesn't want to be supported by the motherland in the rear at any time, but the reality sometimes doesn't allow it! If you can't, you can't do it!
"Has the radar detected it?" Since there is no need for an answer, the chief stopped asking: "What about the infrared scan? Mach 6, the infrared signature should be obvious enough, right? Didn't find it?"
"It hasn't been found yet." The radar officer reported loudly without waiting for an inquiry: "All radar scans failed to find the target, including the latest experimental anti-stealth radar."
The Blackbird is known as an invisible aircraft, but when it flies to Mach 3, the outer skin of the entire fuselage exceeds 300 degrees. Under infrared scanning, it is simply a shining little sun, but everyone can see it but cannot catch up. There is no way That's all.
Similarly, at the high speed of Mach 6, even if the air is thin at high altitude, the temperature of the outer skin of the aircraft should reach hundreds of degrees Celsius, but now, infrared scanning has not found it, and even the latest anti-stealth radar has not found it. What is this? Stealth effect?
"How did this plane come about? When was it built?" The chief pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you reported it?"
"Reported!" General He replied with a wry smile: "He reported through Xiao Zhao, saying that he would secretly develop a high-speed aircraft alone, and many materials were purchased through the military. We have learned that the report A few days ago, Xiao Zhao was slightly injured on a mission."
have to! It sounds like it was premeditated, but people really reported it, but at that time most people thought he was just making a big toy, including the few of them who are communicating now, they didn't expect it It can be so exaggerated.
"Can you stop him?" the chief asked again.
"No!" General He and General Liu smiled wryly, they couldn't even find their shadows, how could they stop them? What's more, even if it can be found, how to stop the 45,000-meter-high, Mach 6.3 aircraft? Even the best anti-aircraft missiles can't catch up!
While smiling wryly, those who knew the situation were actually twitching in their hearts. What is the concept of an invisible aircraft flying at Mach 6?
To put it bluntly, it takes more than an hour for a J-10 or Su-27 to take off from an airport in the Northwest Military Region near the border and travel more than 1,000 kilometers to the front line. However, the plane that took off from Gusu was more than 5,000 kilometers away, but it took less than an hour to reach it in less than 50 minutes. This is the difference. More importantly, whether it is the J-10 or the Su-27, they are not invisible, and the radars over there can detect them in minutes. As for Guo Tailai's aircraft, until now, all the air defense radars along the route in China have not been able to detect a trace.
In front of this plane, the world's best fighter and reconnaissance planes, such as F22, F15, Blackbird, MiG 25, MiG 31, Su 33 and Su 35, Rafale and Phantom, are all scum. Most importantly, this is our own plane, not someone else's. In the past, we could only drool while looking at other people’s good planes. Now if this plane can return safely, it is estimated that there will be no news about this plane in China for ten or twenty years. Foreign countries will not know if they want to drool. Is there such a thing.
Just this one aircraft can directly improve domestic fighter jet technology to the level of decades, and its significance to national defense and security has surpassed all new fighter jets currently under development. This alone is enough to tempt the chief, not to mention, Guo Tailai's starting point is completely acceptable from a personal point of view.
The only trouble is that in terms of organizational discipline and the handling of international relations, it will be a very serious problem, very serious.
"Connect to Blackbird 01's communication." The chief got the exact answer, made a decision in his heart, and directly ordered.
"Blackbird 01!" The chief didn't talk nonsense when he came up: "In the first flight test of this new type of aircraft, a technical error occurred after take-off that could not effectively control the flight direction. As the designer and manufacturer, you are duty bound!"
"Yes, chief!" Guo Tailai also recognized the chief's voice, and at the same time heard another hidden meaning contained in the chief's words, immediately lifted the communication silence, and replied knowingly: "The flight control system The design is not rigorous enough, and if there is a problem, I take the main responsibility. I am now working hard to solve the problem of the flight control system, and I believe it will be repaired soon, and I will return safely.”
In a word from the chief, first attribute all the problems to technical problems. There is an error in the flight control system, and the flight direction cannot be controlled. If it is only a technical problem, then the nature of the error that Guo Tailai will face is completely different, and the severity can be greatly increased. Reduced.
The person surnamed Guo and named Tailai is just an ordinary member of the public, with low consciousness, and has not actively moved closer to the organization. He is not a party member or a soldier, so there is no serious mistake of disobeying military orders or disobeying organizational orders. Isn’t technical error allowed? Guilty?
In this way, the most serious consequences are economic loss and time loss. Punishment? fine! At least two years of salary bonuses! If you don’t get punished, these technicians don’t know the importance of rigorous design! Can such a big technical problem come out?
As soon as these words came out, both General He and General Liu heaved a long sigh of relief. General He just pretended to remind the chief by threatening to shoot Guo Tailai down, and now he finally doesn't have to worry about it anymore. It's normal to think about it, since you can't stop it, can you still push the fat man to the point where it can't be dealt with?
"How far will the plane fly? Can it return and land safely?" The chief asked calmly, "What kind of rescue do you need?"
"The maximum range is 7,000 kilometers with a full load, and we can safely fly back to China after the problem of the flight control system is resolved." Guo Tailai knew what the chief was concerned about, and quickly replied: "To be on the safe side, you can refuel in the appropriate area to increase the range. "
"Refueling machine!" Hearing this, the chief turned his head and said something to General He.
"The takeoff has been arranged!" General He had already made preparations. With the chief's characterization of Guo Tailai's unauthorized actions and takeoff errors, he immediately ordered the tanker to take off.
"Do we need to report the error of the flight control system to the neighboring countries?" Knowing that the tanker has taken off, the chief asked calmly.
"No need, chief!" Guo Tailai still replied calmly: "They... won't know!"
