Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

In the next few days, Zhou Yang spent most of his time at the aircraft design institute, except for going home to spend time with his wife and baby at night.

After all, for Gu Zhenhua, Yang Huaide and others, the research and development of third-generation aircraft is indeed a matter of crossing the river by feeling the stones, which is a hellish level of difficulty.

Even with the guidance of the half-finished plan he created before, there are still many places where he is blind.

For this kind of new project that completely breaks the shackles of traditional technology, it is completely impossible to complete it solely by Gu Zhenhua, Yang Huaide and others. Zhou Yang himself has to help, so that the project team can avoid detours.

While guiding the third-generation aircraft project, Zhou Yang also did not forget to guide Huang Zheng and their armed helicopter project.

Compared with the third-generation aircraft, the progress of the armed helicopter project is also not very fast.

Don't think that the biggest difference between general-purpose helicopters and armed helicopters is whether they have offensive weapon systems. Just think that with the availability of general-purpose helicopters, it will not be difficult to study and transform armed helicopters.

In fact, even if there are general-purpose helicopters, it is still very difficult to build a high-performance armed helicopter, which is no less difficult than building a third-generation aircraft.

This is not nonsense, nor is it a question of who is weak and who is strong, but a consensus among military industrial enterprises in various countries. The answer to this can be obtained from some objective data.

For example, a Thief Eagle Apache armed helicopter costs US$1.5 million, which is equivalent to three F3 stealth fighters.

For another example, there are dozens of countries in the world that can build fighter jets, but not many countries that can build helicopters. As for countries that can build armed helicopters, there are even fewer countries. Only a few mainstream countries that we are familiar with have them. This ability.

This shows how difficult it is to build an armed helicopter!

Even though armed helicopters are not big and their flying speed is not fast, they are much inferior to fixed-wing aircraft in terms of flight altitude, load capacity and combat effectiveness. However, although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. It has what fighter jets have, and it also has what fighter jets don’t. .

More importantly, from the design stage of the helicopter, the coordination between various systems must be taken into consideration, not only to ensure performance, but also to save space and weight as much as possible.

The more space saved and the lighter the weight, the more advanced the helicopter's performance will be.

Still taking Apache as an example, the total length of the various internal cables exceeds 13 kilometers.

In order to ensure that the helicopter has better maneuverability, perception capabilities and firepower output, the installation location and size of the radar and cannon must also be comprehensively considered.

Simply put, the more integrated the helicopter, the greater the advantage.

Although the Black Hawk helicopter has been developed and the performance of this aircraft has been tested on the battlefield, it stands to reason that as long as this fighter aircraft is equipped with suitable weapons and equipment, it can become a qualified armed helicopter.

But the fact is that the weapon systems of armed helicopters have to be redesigned, and it is very difficult to optimize their fit with fighter aircraft.

Fortunately, Huang Zheng himself is also a very thoughtful person, and coupled with the "suggestions" given by Zhou Yang, their project department has already come up with a preliminary transformation plan even though it has only been established for a month and a half.

When Zhou Yang was stationed at the Islamic Liang Aircraft Research Institute, Huang Zheng and others were demonstrating and improving this plan.

After learning that Zhou Yang was here, Huang Zheng naturally would not miss this opportunity to "ask for advice". Anyway, he was in the same institute, so he abducted Zhou Yang at the first opportunity...

While Zhou Yang was busy at the aircraft design office, an emergency call suddenly came from the headquarters, saying that the capital had sent them a large amount of equipment and personnel.

Since these were requested by him, the dean, Liang Shi did not make any decisions, so he asked Zhou Yang how to arrange these personnel and equipment.

After receiving the call, Zhou Yang was overjoyed and hurried back to the headquarters...

.........

Xipo. Research Institute!

As soon as he returned to the unit, Zhou Yang asked his secretary Xiao Jinghong to invite people to the small conference room. He wanted to meet these talents in person.

Soon, a dozen young men and women in military uniforms, led by Xiao Jinghong, opened the door and walked in.

After entering the door, a middle-aged officer in his 30s immediately saluted: "Hello, chief, by order of our superiors, we are reporting to you, please give us instructions!"

Zhou Yang immediately responded with a military salute and then said: "Everyone, sit down!"

After receiving Zhou Yang's instructions, these soldiers immediately walked to the conference table and sat down.

Seeing their uniform movements and determined expressions, Zhou Yang nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he coughed lightly and said, "Please introduce yourselves first. Mainly talk about your respective areas of expertise or skills. Who comes first?"

The middle-aged officer who saluted just now was the first to speak: "Chief, I'm a little older than them, so let's start with me first!"

"can!"

"Reporting to the head, my name is Zhang Zhongmou. I am 28 years old. I am the battalion-level deputy director of the student department of Changshan Senior Army School and a young teacher. I am proficient in Russian, Japanese, English and Arabic. I served as an embassy in a country in the Middle East a year ago. Military attaché, he knows a lot about the situation in many countries in the Middle East!"

Zhou Yang couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard that the person in front of him was actually a teacher from a military school, was also proficient in four languages, and had also served as a military attaché in the embassy.

He is such a talented person, we must keep him!

After Zhang Zhongmou finished speaking and sat down, a female comrade under him stood up and said: "Reporting to the head, my name is Wang Li. I am 26 years old. I am a staff officer in the Strategic Research Office of the General Staff, deputy battalion level. I am good at military intelligence analysis and psychology!"

"Reporting to the leader, my name is Chang Jian. I am 25 years old. I am the logistics warehouse manager of the General Armament Department. I am at the company level. I have no special skills, but I know a lot about our weapons and equipment!"

After saying that, Chang Jian lowered his head in embarrassment. Apparently he felt that he was not as good as the two in front.

However, Zhou Yang seemed to be very interested in him and asked directly: "You know the weapons and equipment of that military branch, and to what extent do you know them?"

"Reporting to the head, I am familiar with almost all the weapons and equipment of the army and air force, and I also know some of the naval vessels. I don't know the extent of my understanding, but as long as I know the weapons and equipment, I can operate them and understand them. Their performance is good and bad!" Chang Jian replied.

"Good, good, good!"

After saying "good" three times in a row, Zhou Yang said again: "Continue!"

Then another gay man stood up and said: "Hello, chief, my name is He Bing. I am a fresh graduate of the military academy, at the platoon level. I am good at tracking and blasting, and I am also a sniper!"

"Hello, Chief, my name is Qin Yulu. I am a drama actor from the General Political Department Art Troupe. I am proficient in English and Arabic!"

"Hello, Chief, my name is Ma Shaoliang. I am an ordinary teacher in the Teaching and Research Office of the Fourth Military Medical University. I am at the company level. Since I am a Hui nationality, I am involved in the religions and customs of the Middle East!"

"Hello, Chief, my name is Huo Ying..."

After all the 11 soldiers in front of him introduced themselves, Zhou Yang was in a good mood. He had found a treasure this time.

Even though the highest level of these people is only at the camp level, each of them has one or two skills that they can use. In the eyes of others, their skills may be a bit useless.

But for Zhou Yang, these are all treasures.

He is not a commander in the army, and what he needs is not an officer with excellent professional skills. In comparison, he needs an "actor" with a wide range of interests, a flexible mind and quick reaction.

That's right, an actor.

The content of the war is to fool the opponent, and acting is the first priority!

Although it is not yet clear how good these people's acting skills are, Zhou Yang believes that as long as they are taught by him, they will definitely become the backbone of the war.

Thinking of this, he coughed lightly and said again: "Do you know what we are doing by transferring you people from various units?"

Zhang Zhongmou immediately replied: "I don't know. When my superiors notified me, they just said that there was an important task for me, but they didn't say what task it was!"

Wang Li said: "The ministry just asked me to come here to follow your arrangements, the chief, and didn't say the rest!"

"Well, it seems that you all don't know about this mission. Well, I'll tell you now. I'll transfer you here mainly to ask you to cooperate with our No. 18 Research Institute to put on a show!" Zhou Yang said in a surprising way.

As soon as these words came out, the people in the conference room looked at each other, confused.

For a moment, the entire conference room was silent, and you could hear a pin drop...
