For Qin Guan, every day is quite tense. Just before New Year's Day in 1980, Qin Guan once again came to the Ministry of Aviation to participate in an important aviation equipment conference.

After many efforts, Qin Guan finally won everyone's approval. Now, when Qin Guan is sitting on the rostrum, no one feels wrong with Qin Guan's position.

The meeting was presided over by Minister Mo. At the same time, Air Force Commander General Zhang and others also attended the meeting.

"First of all, let us express our gratitude to our President Qin with warm applause." After the meeting, Minister Mo first said: "With the efforts of President Qin, we can finally have the world's most advanced third-generation aircraft into service. Up."

The follow-up negotiations with the people of Shah are quite smooth. Seeing that the Tomcat fighters over there can be used for packaging ships, and here is about to do the reception work. Think about the beginning of this year, the Air Force only had the J-7 as the main force. Eight has not been settled, and now, the Air Force is about to achieve leapfrog development. All this is the credit of Qin Guan.

Therefore, everyone was quite excited. Hearing Minister Mo's words, in an instant, violent applause was dedicated to Qin Guan.

Qin Guan quickly stood up: "I just did my own efforts, and this is also everyone's credit. The development of our aviation industry is the work of all of us."

Qin Guan is humble.

"Mr. Qin, everyone can see your contribution." Minister Mo said: "You are of great help to the development of our aviation industry. We can have today's achievements. You are the number one hero now. , We will continue with today’s topic. The first content is about the imitation and upgrade plan of the Tomcat fighter."

At the beginning, Qin Guan was just a simple proposal and did not refine it. If the Tomcat fighter is not available, everything is for nothing. Now, the Tomcat fighter is in front of him, and the imitation of the Tomcat fighter must begin. Up.

Hearing Minister Mo’s words, Mr. Gu of the 6601 Institute below was silent. Originally, the 6601 Institute was the big brother of domestic military aircraft research and development, but who would have thought that the new projects have nothing to do with them.

The task of imitating the Tomcat fighter was given to Lao Lu.

"Lao Lu, tell me." Minister Mo said.

Hearing Minister Mo’s call, Mr. Lu stood up. In the past, their 6650 Institute was a foil. Almost the entire conference was held for several days and he could not say a word, but now, he can finally play the leading role. Now, he was very excited.

"Don't get excited, sit down and say." Minister Mo said to Old Lu.

Mr. Lu sat down and said to everyone: "We are ready to wait for the Tomcat fighter to arrive, and we will start surveying and mapping imitation. In surveying and mapping, you can fully understand all the technologies of the Tomcat fighter. It can help the Air Force’s existing Tomcats to upgrade."

"Old Lu, be careful that the wind flashes your tongue." Mr. Gu has already spoken aside: "Are you really confident?"

There are still a lot of words behind Mr. Lu. Mr. Gu has already interrupted him. When Mr. Gu said, Mr. Lu’s face turned red: "We have issued a military order and completed it in one year. If it cannot be completed, we are willing to accept anything. Punishment, including sending me to prison." Lu Lao said.

"Mr Gu, everyone is not here to listen to your frustrated words." Qin Guan said above.

Hearing Qin Guan's words, Mr. Gu could only whisper and wait for Lao Lu to continue the introduction.

"We have been studying variable swept wing technology for many years. We have learned that the key to the variable swept wing of the Tomcat fighter is the use of a titanium alloy wing box. The welding of this wing box is our difficulty. "Lao Lu said: "We can only turn to Grumman for this technology. Therefore, Grumman has to participate in this Tomcat upgrade. We hope to take this opportunity from Grumman. Introduce this technology."

The key to the development of the Tomcat fighter by Grumman is this wing box. Grumman has developed its own vacuum beam welding technology, which perfectly solves the problem.

If you don't use titanium alloy, you can only use steel, which will result in a complete overweight structure.

"After talking for a long time, I have to beg for help. Now, I don't know how much foreign exchange reserves are going to be wasted." Mr. Gu suddenly spoke again.

"Lao Lu, continue." Qin Guan said.

"As long as this problem is solved, we can overcome the rest. We have advanced electronic technology and there is no problem with avionics technology. Our engine can be replaced by the current Spey improved engine. As for For the flight control system, we plan to introduce the more than four-degree digital telex that is under development." Lu veteran said his development plan.

"1980 is our year of surveying and mapping. At the end of 1981, we will be able to manufacture imitation prototypes. If not, I am willing to accept any punishment."

Mr. Lu was willing to go out. He knew whether the 6650 Institute suddenly jumped into a powerful unit for the development of domestic military aircraft. It depends on this time.

"Vacuum beam welding technology is the key. If Grumman refuses to provide this technology, I can help think of a solution. I believe that the solution is more difficult than the difficulty, and we can definitely overcome it." Qin Guan said.

There is nothing that Qin Guan can't solve. Now, since Qin Guan says he wants to help solve it, it means that there is no problem at all.

"Our Ministry of Aviation Industry must fully support the Tomcat imitation mission, which is related to the future development of our Air Force." Minister Mo said.

General Zhang, the commander of the Air Force on the side, also said: "Yes, it is not enough for us to have only these 79 Tomcat fighters. On the basis of this aircraft, it is our need to imitate a huge series. "

The Air Force is very concerned. The Air Force’s desire for dual-engine heavy fighters has been for a long time. Now that this aircraft is finally about to be realized, the Air Force has already planned the follow-up projects.

"We decided to give the imitation Tomcat fighters the number J-11." General Zhang said.

The number of F-11 is empty, Super Seven gave a number of F-14, and the Air Force reserved it for the imitation Tomcat.

Hearing General Zhang said this, Qin Guan was also a little sighed. Historically, this number was given to the imitation Su-27. It's a pity that I had already exchanged the Blue Shark, but the 6601 Institute has not made any progress. Otherwise, Mr. Gu should be the one who is standing here to explain!

"General Zhang, I have an opinion." At this moment, Mr. Gu said: "I think it is enough for us to buy a batch of Tomcat fighters at a low price. Our domestic aviation industry does not need to A huge amount of effort was wasted to imitate. Our J-8-2 fighter is already sufficient to meet the needs of the Air Force."
