Dominate South Asia

The plane was upside down, and it was almost a life-or-death struggle to escape.

Even in the United States, there is still no precedent for parachuting to escape in this situation. Everyone's eyes were on the seat of the ejected pilot.

The flame at the tail of the seat became horizontal, and then it tilted upward and left the plane.

All of this was captured by a high-speed camera, which shows that this ejection seat has an attitude adjustment device!

Ordinary spectators were attracted by the plane. The beautiful fighter suddenly tore into several pieces in the air. The only lucky thing was that the fragments were still far away from the audience and would not cause any harm.

And the thing ejected from the cockpit was with flames, and then, parachute flowers appeared in the air.

When the parachute opened, the ejection seat detached, and the oxygen mask detached, Pugachev was blown on the face by the cold wind, and then he woke up.

He was actually parachuted! The fighter plane had a malfunction and disintegrated in the air!

Pugachev's face was full of unwillingness, and he messed up this time. After returning, Simonov would definitely not let him go!

The Tomcat fighter slowly landed on the runway. When Hussein came down from it, the people of Grumman cheered and greeted him below. This time, an accident occurred at the air show. The Soviet plane actually went up to simulate a dogfight with its own Tomcat fighter. As a result, it was shattered. This incident will make the Tomcat fighter more famous!

They cheered and helped Hussein and his radar operator down. Hussein's face was also excited. The scene just now was indeed thrilling enough, and. He also represented the Pakistan Air Force and became famous, but this was a flight show. In actual combat, the Su-27 relied on large off-axis combat bombs, and the threat to its own side was still considerable.

The flight show at the air show was suspended. This was a serious accident. The cause of the accident was the unauthorized action of the Soviet pilot, who took the initiative to take off and provoke the performing Tomcat fighter.

The organizers of the air show lodged a serious protest to the Sukhoi Design Bureau and the Soviet Air Force, and Soviet aircraft were not welcome to participate in the Farnborough Air Show in the future!

Many videos began to circulate around the world, showing the scene of the Tomcat fighting the Flanker. It was really thrilling! Especially at the end, the Flanker actually disintegrated in the air!

Some retired military fans and experts began to comment that the main reason was that the overload of the Flanker was too large, and it was estimated that there were twelve overloads at that time!

The reputation of the Flanker was completely stinking at this air show, but the ejection seat was famous.

In that case, it was still able to eject successfully and allow the flight crew to escape. This shows the high reliability of the ejection seat.

The air show came to an end, and a few days later, Pakistan welcomed a group of special guests.

US Air Force Lieutenant General Paul, a team of entourage, and major military aircraft manufacturers such as Grumman and Northrop came to Islamabad.

Pakistan Air Force Chief of Staff, old Arslan. Personally greeted them.

Old Arslan had lived in the United States for several years and had become an American citizen. These Americans seemed more friendly when they saw him.

"You are very welcome." Old Arslan shook Paul's hand. In the United States, Old Arslan had also met Paul at a cocktail party. At that time, Paul was already the commander of the best F-15 fighter wing in the Air Force.

"It's nice to meet you." Paul said, "We are here mainly to visit, visit and learn. Your Air Force's fighter planes have made a big splash at the Farnborough Air Show, reflecting the combat quality of your Air Force, which is worth learning from."

In the battle, the Pakistani Air Force is getting stronger and stronger, but in the past, the US Air Force did not take it seriously. One of the reasons is that the Pakistani Air Force uses F-14 fighters. In the United States, this is their naval fighter, and in the United States, there are disputes between various branches of the military, which is a very delicate relationship.

"Very welcome." Old Arslan said, "We need to learn more. Now, please go to our air force base and watch our flight show."

According to the process, Old Arslan plans to take them to see his own air force show first.

"Okay." Paul said, "After the performance, we also hope to visit your country's aviation industry company."

"No problem at all." Old Arslan said. Looking at the people in those companies, Old Arslan knew what they were thinking.

It seemed that in order to take care of the mood of these air force personnel, Old Arslan brought them not to the base equipped with F-14 fighters, but to the F-16 fighters, which are the main fighters of the US Air Force and are used to match the F-15 with the low-end fighters.

The belly air intake and bubble cockpit, although this fighter is only a low-end fighter, its performance is also good.

Taxiing, taking off, watching the fighters do various maneuvers in the air, many people are absent-minded.

When the plane landed on the runway, Lieutenant General Paul said, "Mr. Chief of Staff, can we go to see your aviation industry company?"

"Of course." Old Arslan said, taking these people, got in the car, and went to the aviation industry company in the suburbs of Islamabad.

This place was once just a J-6 overhaul shop. After the introduction of Tomcat fighter jets, it became an overhaul shop for the Tomcat fighter's TF30 engine. After that, it also had the ability to dismantle and maintain Tomcat fighter jets. After that, it continued to The F100 overhaul line has been introduced, and the F110 production line is also planned to be carried out here.

The factory building being built in the distance was prepared for the F110 production line. Paul and his team watched various works in the workshop. They watched a Tomcat fighter jet being dismantled for mid-term maintenance and upgrades and replaced with new ones. Except for a few Westerners, most of the workers in the F110 engine manufacturing plant are Pakistanis. Even Paul is very surprised by the progress they have made.

In the eyes of outsiders, South Asia is poor and backward. It can't even produce a car, and it can't produce any high-end aircraft!

After turning around, Paul said: "At the air show, you exhibited a model of a stealth aircraft. We are very interested in it. Was it developed here?"

Old Arslan smiled and said: "That building over there is the company's R\u0026D department."

These Americans came here for Pakistan's achievements in the field of stealth. When Pakistan's model was sent back to the United States, the U.S. Air Force was immediately shocked.

They simply do not believe that Pakistan has the ability to develop such an aircraft. They have no development capability at all! However, the facts were before their eyes and they had no choice but to believe it.

So, under the leadership of Paul, they came here to seek an answer

Now, the mystery is about to be revealed!

"This is our electromagnetic laboratory." Old Arslan led these people into the lower floor of a research and development building. This place is as big as a basketball court!

There are antennas all around, used to transmit and receive electromagnetic waves to verify the electromagnetic reflection ability of the development object. Moreover, the shape of these antennas is the T/R component of the phased array!

Only phased array radar can simulate electromagnetic waves in any direction and is most suitable for testing. Phased array radars are expensive to build. How much do these antennas cost? Even in the wealthy United States, not all such laboratories used by various companies are built with phased array radars.

With this room, you can get an optimized shape by using a fully simulated model!

Different from the blowing tunnel, a small-scale model can be used to study the airflow passing through the model. However, electromagnetic reflection is closely related to the size of the target, and a full-size model must be used.

This laboratory shocked the Americans, and what shocked them even more was that there was a full-size model in the room at this time.

The rhombus-shaped nose at the front, the rectangular ribbed inlets on both sides, the small canard with sawtooth above the inlet, the large delta wing main wing, the vertical tail at the back is tilted, and the two engines are arranged in the later.

This is just a full-size model, but many people were surprised when they saw this model, especially the technicians from companies such as Northrop and Grumman who came with them. , this aircraft has never appeared in the world!

There was once a glimmer of doubt: Did the Pakistanis plagiarize American designs? Especially for Northrop Company, could it be that some company executives betrayed the company's secrets under financial incentives?

Now, there is no doubt that this must have been developed by Pakistan itself! This aircraft seems to be quite advanced!

When old Arslan saw the plane, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Okay, let's go visit other places."

"Mr. Chief of Staff, we are very interested in this fighter jet of yours. Can you explain it to us?" Paul said.

"Nothing, this is just a random project we did ourselves." Old Arslan said: "Let's go, I will take you to visit our digital design center. We have realized three-dimensional computer design."

Old Arslan obviously made a mistake, he should not have brought these people here.

"Look, its air intake has no partitions, just a bulge!" At this moment, a technician from Northrop shouted.

A layman looks at the excitement, an expert looks at the door. For airplanes, there is more airflow at high speeds and less airflow at low speeds. When the engine is working, the airflow needs to be stable, which requires something to adjust the air intake. In the MiG On 21, the air intake cone was used. Later, with the advancement of technology, For example, the F-15 uses a three-stage adjustable inclined plate. Those fighters with fixed air intakes, such as the F-16, have a maximum flight speed that will not exceed Mach 2. The F-15, which uses an adjustable inlet, has a maximum Mach number of more than 2.5.

The air intake of this aircraft is a bulge, which is very unusual. (To be continued ~^~)
