Chapter 716 Demonstration to the Western World

How much improvement potential does the J-7 developed from the MiG-21 have? For the Soviet Union, there is nothing to miss about this fighter. The Soviet Union's powerful aviation industry has made their fighters progress rapidly. Now they even have the Su-27 series of fighters. They will not put any effort into the MiG-21. However, for China, it is different. After all, China's aviation industry has a weak foundation and does not have the ability to develop advanced fighters. Modifying the J-7 is the best way. Therefore, they continue to improve the J-7 and finally take the path of the Xiaolong.

In fact, even the J-8 is just a larger version of the J-7 with twin launch engines.

And now, under Andre's promotion, the J-7 project has made great strides to develop to Super-7. Tu Jida feels that this trip to Moscow is really worth it!

The entire air show was packed with people. Military fans were amazed, and military leaders from various countries had mixed feelings. There were also many spies who took advantage of this opportunity to spy on the progress of the Soviet aviation industry.

Günter Rall continued to walk forward, passing the exhibition area of ​​the real machine. Going forward, he should reach the exhibition area of ​​the model. In front of a model, there were three layers of people inside and three layers outside.

What was inside? Günter-Lahr was extremely curious. He could not help but squeeze into the crowd until he got to the very end. Finally, he could see clearly that a large sign on it clearly read: Spacecraft carrier.

Space carrier! These Soviets are really working on it! This plan has always been of great concern in the Western intelligence system. More than a decade ago, the Soviets started the Spiral Plan, which uses a hypersonic carrier to bring military spacecraft outside the atmosphere and cruise in space. When needed, it will launch the aerospace fighters stored in it!

This aerospace fighter is a single-seat winged combat aircraft that can perform daytime photo reconnaissance, radar reconnaissance, interception of space targets and other tasks! In the past, the Western world thought that this plan was too fantastic and too difficult to realize, and the space mothership was a big problem!

But now, as the experiments of the US space shuttle are progressing steadily, the Soviet Buran is also being tested intensively, and their space shuttle is the mother space aircraft!

The Soviets knew that the West was paying attention to this plan, so they took this opportunity to openly reveal it! This made all the Western intelligence personnel extremely excited, and they took photos one after another.

In fact, due to the Soviet Union’s political system, intelligence work in the Soviet Union was very difficult to carry out. American intelligence personnel in the Soviet Union often collected intelligence based on public information such as Soviet newspapers and television. Now this opportunity is of course the best!

The Soviets exhibited a large-scale model of the Buran and a model of the aerospace fighter inside it. Even the aerospace fighter model showed what was inside, including the rocket engine, the rocket structure, and the maintenance system in the front pilot cabin.

Through the revolver-like arrangement, five aerospace fighters are arranged in the cargo hold of the space shuttle! Such a blizzard cruises in space and can start a space war at any time!

Günter Rall's camera kept pressing the shutter, and a roll of film was used up.

Although he was an air force personnel, not a astronaut, he was also aware that the Soviet Union already had a huge advantage in outer space, and this advantage would cause Western nuclear bombs to lose their deterrent effect. Israel launched a nuclear bomb, which resulted in the contamination of large tracts of Israeli territory. If the Western world launched a nuclear attack, it would not destroy the Soviet Union. On the contrary, it would cause countless radioactive nuclear pollution to contaminate Western territory!

The Soviet Union was invincible. This Moscow Air Show was more like the Soviet Union demonstrating to the Western world!

"The tarpaulin over there has been lifted, go over there and take a look!" At this moment, a voice shouted.

All those people disappeared in a flash. Günter Rall was a step slower again. He changed the film and squeezed into the crowd again. Suddenly, his eyes widened and he could not close them anymore!

When they just came over, this side was covered with tarpaulin. There should be a fighter plane-sized equipment inside, but because of the tarpaulin, no one could see inside, so Günter Rall didn't pay much attention. But now, as the tarpaulin was lifted, the outline of a large fighter plane was revealed, making it impossible for everyone to move away from it.

Before the flight show at the air show began, all Westerners were extremely surprised. In the past, they had only seen a vague shadow on satellite photos, but now, this fighter jet has finally appeared in front of them!

What did Europe have at this time? The most advanced one was the Tornado fighter, which used a variable swept wing structure, and this layout was still the second-generation aircraft! France's Mirage 2000 had just been developed, using a single-rotor turbofan engine, and its power was backward. Only the United States had finalized the third-generation aircraft and equipped its troops, leaving the Soviet Union five years behind.

But now, the Soviet Union has caught up! The Su-27 and MiG-29 are equipped with various advanced layouts such as large wing strips. At the same time, the research and development of the fourth-generation aircraft is also in full swing!

Canard layout! This layout is not uncommon. In order to improve the attack performance at high angles of attack, this method is the most suitable. However, due to the inherent static instability of the canard layout, only fly-by-wire operation can tame it!

After the Tornado fighter was finalized, the Europeans have been tirelessly pursuing advanced fighters to guard European airspace. The earliest traceable date can be traced back to 1971, when Britain proposed the demand for new fighters. In 1979, the Federal Republic of Germany proposed the birth of the TFK-90 concept aircraft. In the same year, Dassault of France joined the cooperation, and the name "European fighter" was proposed for the first time. Different countries continued to develop their own prototypes. France called it AC×, Britain called it P.110 and P.106, and the Federal Republic of Germany called it TFK-90. Last year, Dassault of France insisted on leading all designs, which led to the two sides parting ways. Now, these disputes are still going on, but the various prototypes of the three countries all use the canard layout without exception.

The Europeans are still arguing, and the performance of their fighter jets is only at the level of the US F-15, which is a third-generation aircraft, while the Soviet Union has already begun developing a fourth-generation aircraft!
