Do everything possible to reduce the development of funding

1982 CSTIND by the original report, Comrade Deng Xiaoping's approval, with an increase in funding for the continued development of the state to suspend the "Flying Leopard" aircraft. That was the funding system, the military development of the annual fee of Defense to focus on the industrial sector; and then the Ministry of Aviation Industry Research also J 7, Yun-7, F 8, Y-8 and other models, the total funding remains inadequate. "Feibao" While out on the project, but very little money to give every year, it is difficult to speed up the work. After, the plant and the authorities in charge of personnel in the Department of Work and Section meetings at all levels, particularly the navy's efforts to replace Defense issued hats "Feibao" aircraft development costs. From 1984 to 1987 at about × × × million, but the total budget is nearly exhausted.

Financial sector, according to statistics, there would be significant cost overruns, when CSTIND, the Navy can not accept the leadership of that, some people say it is difficult to work, no so much money. At this time we can only make efforts to work towards funding压减; the relevant authorities in the implementation of comrades should, of course I was duty-bound to lead to. Defense Ministry of Science and Technology by the sixth inning, loaded the sea, aviation industry for more than a year before and after Comrade organs, namely, the repeated investigations, accounts, to bargain hard for the hospital, factory set targets and funding压减rate is Great. In February 1988 by the Navy Department and Xi'an Aircraft equipment design, XAC companies, test house, Xi'an engine officially signed, airborne products, materials, technology etc. also cut a piece of funds. The same year before the completion of God to ensure the safety of large-scale flight test, the end of the first.

Smooth operator funding over two years. However, after the machine has not been factory 4, early in 1991 the end of the year in 1990, when the test in addition to outside, the plants, by serious cost overruns and funding; the background is the price surge, although all aspects of its work as usual, but as the work of the competent authority add a lot of difficulties and at other times, they become a problem for the key issues.

June 1991, Defense held in Shaanxi Yanliang "Feibao" office will be at the scene just concluded, in accordance with the instructions of the leaders, six Defense Council, the sea and loaded aircraft comrades in charge of the industrial sector to discuss the internal ,

To give the plant, the House increased funding for essential indicators; to make the whole acceptable to all parties, we are to advance estimate of the breakdown. April 1991 was also installed in the Shanghai meeting of the sea research "Feibao" prototype stereotypes when the armed forces need to be improved cabin equipment to increase the fuel is contained to meet the three requirements, as well as prevention of some improvements in ordnance, the Navy reported to have applied for Some funds; after the first but no capacity to carry out the work of the head-up display, INS official capacity as a project, they also need to increase the money to do the work. To all of the above into account, the final CSTIND a funding increase. Experimental study on the reliability of the aircraft is in addition to other special funds, the shape until the aircraft design, with a total development cost to achieve a better control.

As regards funding, but also talk about the issue of contract. China from a planned economy to market economy, the military developed the system costs at the same time to the contract from the funding system. More than 20 years of reform and opening up a very successful country, which greatly accelerated the development of the national economy; replaced military contract, however, I think a lot of work to be done, it is necessary to further study to resolve.

In February 1988, "Flying Leopard" installed aircraft directly from the sea and the four Members, namely, by the Xi'an Aircraft Design, Xi'an Aircraft Manufacturing Corporation, flight Hospital, Xi'an Engine Corporation signed. With regard to reliability, and three defenses, as well as all Yeonsu

Is the host of the military units with the sign of a number of small contracts, it is flexible, it is also somewhat arbitrary stresses. Contract for the military and the industrial sector (including plants, schools) will benefit mainly责权利clear, can play all aspects of

Enthusiasm. In short, the contract must not only help to promote and ensure the development of the current work, but also conducive to the further development of the project.

Pioneered the use of a certain type of missile fire control testing machine

"Flying Leopard" is the first generation of aircraft and fighter bombers, the electronic equipment on board or more, the system is rather complicated; in particular a certain type of air-to-ship missile fire control system, equipment is developed, the relationship between systems, and there are multi-functional radar, air-to-ship missile director, Doppler navigation systems, aircraft position system, air data computer, flight control computers, technology was very difficult. When the chief architect of Comrade Chen Yijian use H-5 aircraft to be converted into a "Flying Leopard" of a certain type of air-to-ship missile fire control system test machine, we have CSTIND hostel will be held to discuss the topic.

Comrade design view, there is a dedicated test machine system can be an early test, the problem as early as improving early detection and increase the reliability of technology to shorten the aircraft development cycle; the need to address the question is: use × × × million, time 2 to 3 years, please provide the Navy to fly the H-1-5 aircraft. First, here's the question of whether it is technologically feasible? The total division organized a demonstration, there have been precedents abroad; to be comrades believe that not done in our home, but it is also feasible; Second, H-5 aircraft from the past? Navy comrades that can solve immediately, and the third is funding, I immediately call request, the competent Deputy Minister of the high-Zhenning support; Fourth, time, progress to be fast, taking a step to really play the role of testing machine; Fifth, test machine改装厂testing and modification work of the Organization. Of the first, second, three issues have solutions.

I presided over the nearly 50 people will be, we are very concerted efforts to support stem; reported CSTIND be approved soon after, in the navy deputy commander Li strong support of the issues raised have been resolved quickly. The aircraft is deployed from Naval Air Force, the Navy converted Shanghai plant maintenance; the difficulties are in the fire control system for the new equipment can not be provided, the progress of a delay, in fact, the test pieces is fitted with a flight test machine. Progress from 1984 until 1988 to complete flight test mission, across the five years, the actual time spent more than three years, completed a better plan, basically to achieve the desired objectives. In exploring the work of some strong charges, but in our research and development of new aircraft, aircraft with old technology to do new testing machine or the first.

The development of military aircraft flight simulator used for the first time

China's F-7, F-8 aircraft development as well as a variety of modifications are then built control system simulation platform, mainly for space systems, inertial and friction inspection, measurement and adjustment, the driver can feel the power stroke size, but drivers can not provide the benefits of technology. And foreign military aircraft in public areas and the extensive development of flight simulator, pilot training in order to effectively shorten the flight training time. I have visited abroad such equipment, but also get to experience too. I advocate such as "Flying Leopard" This completely new self-designed machine should have a dedicated flight simulator for the design and use of test pilots. First of all, chief test pilot for the feelings of the aircraft characteristics, aircraft design in order to ensure good and safe flight test pilot for the training of the second to reduce the flight time. This is my visit to see the formation of foreign information and ideas, so in the "Flying Leopard" development process, home flight simulation test laboratory on the special attention.

In 1984 to 1985, every year I have heard several times to Yanliang reports in this regard, the introduction of simulators to support the hydraulic control system, organized in cooperation with the Beihang University to develop visual system demonstration and discussion, which is approximately in the officially launched in 1985, below the. Although they encounter in the course in the development of a number of technical issues, in particular the visual system BUAA the progress of a delay, but the flight simulator was developed in the aircraft played a role better. Statistics can be done here, is about XXX million investment, the utilization rate of lack of statistical data, the overall economic benefits are very good, of course, more important is to ensure that the maiden flight and later flight safety. Aviation history in China, developing the use of flight simulators, "Flying Leopard" is the first aircraft.

Fitted with head-up display with the INS and other advanced avionics equipment

"Feibao" supporting projects in the choice of aircraft is the end of the 70s last century, when the flight parameters for the head-up display and flight navigation with the INS have been installed in the use of advanced countries, while China is still in its infancy. Some studies on the basis of the development unit, enthusiasm high, strongly recommended by the host; types chief architect, chief architect of the unit comrades, users also have the desire or the military, but technically, especially in the light aircraft such as F-8 Development experience on the new machine can not support too many products too new, or they will be dragging the whole development. Also in this context, the study agreed that the use of walking on two legs. First choice of aircraft technology is mature and the optical target 210 Doppler navigation system, and head-up display, inertial navigation system developed to carry out immediately, and signed with the host of technical agreements and economic contracts.

In fact China's head-up display, inertial navigation equipment, the introduction of a number of technology based on the rapid development in 1989 and 1990, F-7 aircraft and change of F-8 Ⅱ used machine oil HUD INS, but also for the "Flying Leopard" INS 563 backup equipment; at this time the military (ie Navy) require "Flying Leopard" installed HUD, INS, and the third time in 1990 as a field office will be the subject of an official. At that time, the progress of the chief architect of fear can not keep up, the system tests, and afraid of the impact of the aircraft type; the site office will consider the development of technology must be installed still, it is agreed there are difficulties such as the progress may not be stereotyped as a test project. I think the decision is correct, to fully implement. But not expected to meet quite a few things: The first is with a certain type of air-to-ship missile fire control system for technical co-ordination difficult. Hospitals aerospace industry found that the original and the development of Shanghai's 615 Doppler navigation system 210 to coordinate missile accuracy to meet the requirements of, and coordination of 563 INS did not have enough precision errors; at winning red, left refused to coordination has not yet been exported, then, this is the first major problem encountered;

Second, HUD, the former INS to the lack of development costs, but also re-signed to supplement the capacity of the products and the cost of further tests;

The third is the issue of flight. The original arrangement of missile fire control system 210 Doppler equipment used in the test No. 84 and playing rounds, and INS is No. 85 on the test, while it is responsible for Gun shooting, firing air-to-air missiles, and bombs to vote. This

Like a missile launch when a certain type of air traffic there will be no examination of the inertial navigation system installed 563 fire control system, so there was not an aircraft is both打炮, playing air-to-air missiles, and bombs for air-to-ship missile launchers and other weapons of integrity testing machine; these changes is because many ill-considered and thoughtful, it is technically feasible detour away;

Fourth, in the plane after an official with INS, 210 Doppler navigation system developed over the years to meet the design specifications, how to arrange? Reasonable 6 15 speakers should be made to compensate for appropriate economic, but the system in China is not the case of sound is impossible. These are past the basic use of administrative means, repeated coordination, persuasion, through appropriate increase in the pilot project, to give some funding to, and here is the administrative means to play a leading role. However, as technology management, the chief architect of the system to sum up experience, can not complain about more than change. In fact, more than a decade in the development process, as compared with "Flying Leopard" with foreign aircraft development in the process of change, referred to the new requirements of the military is not that much, the key is due to our lack of experience.

Power units available in this hand has become a "chronic"

"Flying Leopard" is the aircraft project in February 1977, the engine choice is a contract in December 1975 the introduction of the MK from the United Kingdom a bay 202, then bought a full set of 50 machine as well as technical information and production rights; Xi'an Engine in the British assistance of the successful trial in 1980 and British domestic bay so qualified engine bench test. This is the condition of the new aircraft development was very good and unique, really easy reach; not only is a ready-made engine, and high reliability, this type of aircraft in flight and give full play to its advantages. However, the aircraft type and aircraft production after more than 10, and in 2000 a new machine there is no engine used (made of the bay - turbofan 9 - can not provide the time being), the aircraft may be faced with a situation in production, so that distressed people.

回忆往事, so that the engine problems are many reasons today, after the stresses from use:

1. In grasping "Feibao" aircraft development at the same time, the engine caught on very weak, there is no existing basis in the accelerated development of domestic production. Such as in the second half of 1979 in two batches of 4 engines installed, and in 1980 at 2-5 after passing the test and then the United Kingdom to work, save money and get the time, but also become a driving force for aircraft development . This means in practice is its own line, is a leader in decision-making mistakes;

2. Far away in the late 80's, CSTIND Xie Guang, Vice Director of the engine bay is a "one use, the Second Amendment, three, and four to" approach, when we all support, and work hard. In December 1990 in the fourth on-site office will be made part of the work stem from the 1991, but due to lack of funds, progress再施delayed so that the work of a comprehensive domestic postponed. Now look at determination of the engine is not under, such as the resolute decision to conduct a comprehensive home-made, is to reverse the passive situation of today. Cautiously, step-by-step arrangement of the bay to make some people full of confidence domestically, the "Flying Leopard" hesitate to wait and see the next stage of development engines. Air Force aircraft to the relevant departments in full swing not to mention the delays in the development of requirements, not do anything, I was looking at how the engine do? Some people say that. At that time, no money. Air Force will be fitted out actual money to come to vote;

3. There are differences of interference. Engine bay is the "Flying Leopard" aircraft of international and domestic conditions of matching the best projects, the engine itself is a bit backward, but it matches with the aircraft to ensure that the overall superiority of the aircraft, particularly low-altitude combat capability, and some people would like to exchange high - performance engine actually are not realistic. However, in the military and the industrial sector, some people are against the bay, stressed that the engine behind the well-known face, has also hampered the early to get the engine of domestic;

4. Bay we made underestimated the complexity of the work that has been "very good" condition, easy to grasp them, the fact that touched the wall. Past experiences, and now want to make great efforts to eliminate interference engine bay made efforts for two years to get hands. "Flying Leopard" is a further improved air, naval a new generation of equipment, access to 20 years.

Bay approved aircraft engine may hinder the production, the impact of troops and equipment, as the competent authority for the development of this project I have long predicted, and we will continue to reflect the parties concerned to report and write a special material. In addition, prepare to be done, not only do not contribute to domestic production abroad means to give up. In May 1991 the British Rolls-Royce to explore the super-7 aircraft and 199 when a driving force for RB, the officer told us about the British Air Force retired the F-4H engine bay of the aircraft and equipment matters relating to the British that they Maintenance given, respectively, 300,500,700 d ', at this point to attract the residual life of me, that we might consider the introduction of these engines. I got Wang Ang, vice minister of the support, with the British talk about this for several years, but because of opposition from some staff members did not materialize. I still believe that this path is wrong with "Flying Leopard" continuous line of production aircraft not clever but a practical way.

Click here to stress once again that, in 1993 CSTIND office will be the seventh time at the scene, which I drafted to Defense Secretary Zhang Zhi, sea loaded aircraft, Minister of the Department of Xu Ganquan the name of three of us made a "unified awareness, pay close attention to 'Flying Leopard' shape and accelerate the work of the armed forces, "a written statement, which made the engine is a priority! However, this issue has not been able to get a better solution, so that no new production of aircraft engines can be used, and regrettable.

Part four-translation

Problems in the engine, there is something unforgettable. Deputy commander of the Air Force early in 1994 Lin Hu recommendations: first the former Soviet Union installed a MiG-29 aircraft P Ⅱ a 33 engine, later replaced by the development of 624 middle-thrust turbofan engine. The proposal received the consent of the Central Military Commission Vice Chairman Liu Huaqing, was a result of the Navy and the industrial sector that does not work, and equipment from the Department of the General Staff in July 25, 1994 _27 Air Force Logistics in Nanyuan hostel of experts will discuss "Feibao "modification of aircraft engines pushing the issue. At Navy, Army ASTRI, a professor at National Defense University experts are to think: "Flying Leopard" tonnage of the total weight of the aircraft properly, double, twin, medium aspect ratio, good layout后掠角medium, as can land, sea and air operations,载弹量large, functional and more suitable for a supersonic fighter-bombers are the future demands of actual combat; request as soon as possible, as soon as possible, as much as possible the production of such equipment, high reliability, low-altitude engine bay a good win to aircraft. Developed in the push to re-cycle may be very long, so it does not work, this will be the end of the story. On the transition of the former Soviet Union used a MIG-29 P Ⅱ a 33 engine problems, the meeting also said that some, mainly small thrust can not guarantee the performance of the aircraft, and the change would not be easy for them, after the test to work, we need to re - test to stereotypes, only this will not be able to demonstrate more. In order to reverse this chaotic situation, the Navy and the industrial sector in charge of the work carried out by staff is worth a thousand words that are not ultimately agree with the leadership of the engine bay is still loaded, Feibao "renewal" even if the storm subsided.

"Flying Leopard" installed stability, good reliability of the engine bay to ensure that the 9-year 1600 test flight sorties stereotypes, and the subsequent trial, and bear the force "99 10" task proved to be successful; adhere to the general direction of non-renewal has been and will continue to prove that was right. In short, do not mature is not for the engine. Due to the general direction set in the aircraft development, production development, in urgent need of more time for the engine, or determined to buy the British retired, "worthy of use", "worthy" in the engine bay for nearly 80 units, the actual use of engine 55 to be made 9 turbofan not needed before.

232H radar technologies

"Flying Leopard" installed aircraft by the Ministry of Electronics Industry, Lanzhou 781 plant developed in the early 80s on the air, on land, sea multi-function fire control radar, aircraft to meet its design performance of the tactical and technical requirements; development time a little progress significant tension, but the basic machine can keep up with the installation of radar flight test requirements. However in 1991 the radar to adjust radar performance test found very poor, not the design of indicators; the high failure rate, can not be stereotyped into the flight, the main question is: 1. Air-to-air target not found in the state of continuous instability intercepted track 2. Goal of the open space to tell the state of confusion on the ground and found that difficult; 3. Poor reliability of the radar machine, a high failure rate.

In view of the radar can not engage in normal flight, it was suggested that for the radar; says the immediate development of a new radar, that the difficulty of this high is unlikely; no longer be imported from abroad, mainly to buy Russian MiG aircraft equipment -29 "beetle" radar. It should be said that this is a path to explore, when the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Minister Lin Zongtang formal report to the Central Military Commission Vice Chairman Liu Huaqing, and asked us to clarify the feasibility of doing the work. Yanliang flight I was in hospital, is Mao Dehua Secretary to call me personally, and I explained the phone's own fear, for fear of endangering the fix will be "Flying Leopard" as well as the development of flight. Subsequent discussions with the comrades at that time that can be used to buy is not used. Contacts with Russia and argues that the most Shaandan can also take three years to get the radar installed in future have to address the problem of batch production; this route also may have political, economic, technological risk, once the drag there are half-way away "Feibao" the risk of the aircraft. By and the Navy, the electronics division, Comrade Factory 7 81 studies, the same ideas to improve the existing radar. In October 1992 installed in the sea meets the relevant organs of the comrades of Beijing agreed with 781 Factory, Xi'an Aircraft design engineers and other units of the proposed multi-232H radar technology research programs, including:

1. Aircraft to hood (radome) and the 232H radar antenna test match and to take appropriate technical measures to eliminate the state of a high degree of air-to-air clutter;

2. For the test problems, on the radar for four changes, namely, the use of phase-locked LO to replace the original hot and cold with the system, re-designed computer, the use of raster scanning systems in place to change the design of systems;

3. Strive to improve the reliability of the radar is mainly carried out the extension to change the design, the use of large-scale integrated circuits, so that the number of radar components to reduce the more than 9300 original to more than 6000.

In December 1992 CSTIND Yanliang held in "Flying Leopard" on-site office at the sixth, after listening to the reports CSTIND Xie Guang, deputy director of the instructions: "Since ancient times, Huashan road test aircraft type, original 232H radar unchanged, agreed to the problems of radar technology research, "and the implementation of the funding. Changed the design of research work together with the reliability of some common × X × million. "Feibao" The reason why there is today, with the right decision-making on key issues and technical research is inseparable from the success and should be summed up. Is the "Flying Leopard" installed aircraft new and better future of the radar, 232H is the historical role of the radar should be yes.

First difficult

New evaluation of aircraft flight, I as the FT-7, F-7 Ⅲ, F-8 Ⅱ several new aircraft models such as the flight director, has organized the maiden flight of concrete experience.

"Feibao" aircraft in December 1988 when the organization first review about nearly 400 people (not including the host plant), and that all newly developed or improved a total of 176 projects, involving 10 ministries and 81 for the system works the person in charge of technology

Members, military representatives and the relevant departments and the military authorities sent representatives to participate, it is necessary to review whether there is one flying conditions, it is necessary to ensure flight safety, in charge of the officers concerned to sign the review. Specific and detailed work, the host, the plant is basically the entire mobilization, separate organizations to participate in the review. As the chief architect of the system to ensure that the executive head of staff, is basically a matter to worry about the coordination of differences of opinion and "passing" issue.

1. On the installed "black box" problem. "Black box" (the accident flight recorder) as a problem flying, in the past, the maiden flight of the new machines are not installed, Feibao first machine has not loaded, but the first time in the clinical test to Comrade hospital to have installed. Installed "black box" to carry out any modification to the aircraft, it takes time, with a total system that pilots at the airport on a flight over the ups and downs of navigation, in the sight of almost all, the installed "black box" is largely meaningless. With differences, it is up to report separately. The past has focused on the military aircraft models Bureau tube, and the development of the "Flying Leopard" at the Department of organs Bureau has set up a test flight; on behalf of Lee screen test Board Secretary agreed to test the views of homes, and military chain of command on behalf of the executive board and I am a total division agreement, it is clear this is a very organized bodies tend to result, so that systems engineering can not. At this time the two bodies in charge of Wang Ang, vice minister also did not link for some reason, I have honestly急死people. After repeated coordination, decided to simplify the installation state of the black box, the main flight parameters measured were very small, quickly completed the modified aircraft. Developed when the aircraft commander-in-chief Wang Ang, vice minister of the Yan-liang at the scene, heard the report, the chief architect of the aircraft Chen Jian, chief engineer Yi Zhibin flying after the signing of the approval; chief Air Force test pilot is the new Bin-Chung Huang, head of flight test missions, the back seat of navigation XING members only pilot, director of the ground迪宇Peng, deputy head of the command.

Previous focus on the new machine is a first assessment, in the professional assessment of the group there is a field service, maintenance and assessment of flight conditions, in the first and then the normal procedure when flying signature. In the "Flying Leopard" approach to be done in the previous review, the Board also invited organizations test a separate assessment of a gang of people, this is a result of repeated duplication of institutions, the complexity of the work.

2. The issue of engine flying. Matching system for all plant products, and are responsible to report to the panel to discuss the adoption of signature; while the engine bay, Xi'an engine companies do not want to sign in when flying, on the grounds that the engine bay is not that they produced (UK LAW Romanian company). In fact the engine has been introduced by the plant is responsible for understanding technology, inventory the library to check the engine, test carried out by the plant, the requirements are "Flying Leopard" costs of development, and given certification, these things are contract of. But at that time to be in charge of the factory, but do not want to sign to release at this time we found the authority responsible for my people, repeatedly doing the work of reason, of course, there is criticism, or the signing of the final. Their experience is to develop the technical agreement, the contract should take into account all aspects of the matter, clearly written item, must be responsible persons, not simplistic.

3. First landing occurred when the front wheel shimmy. Three-point landing gear before the aircraft, the front wheel shimmy is very dangerous, so before the maiden flight of the special arrangements for the test, but the result is a problem, the aircraft was riddled with shimmy. Pilots talk about: the cockpit before the dashboard can not see the word, as if to loose shelves, lost a good few tables, more than 20 meters short of aircraft that is out of the runway, stopped after radar detected vibration mounting brackets are broken. Unexpected incidents, there are scared! Experience is the pre-flight ground tests simulated real enough, failed to detect problems early; better quickly find the reason, be repaired quickly to develop the aircraft has not caused a big impact, but it really should be a historic lesson . The safety of flight must be careful!

Ong Ming aircraft rudder

"Flying Leopard" onto the aircraft after the flight are more the size of fault, which is the most headache is transonic vertical flight aircraft vibration. As far as I fly record with statistics, from November 17, 1989 the first plane 81 of vertical vibration bad tip, to August 25, 1992 83 aircraft due to intense vibration of the rudder to fly out of more than two years for stereotypes of the five flight test aircraft in addition to an evening flight from the factory less, had not occurred, the remaining four have been

More than 10 times the problems, including bad vertical vibration tip, ventral fin, rudder and so on. In 5000 ~ 9000 meters high, 0.9 ~ 1.04 Mach number of the transonic flight phase, as long as it is gradually entering the vibration must occur (to enter the speed zone may be crossed vibration).

The nature of the initial vibration, resulting in that a variety of reasons, such as the view that the original tip of the antenna to provide the local oscillator, a sharp vertical vibration caused by the weak structure, but also that vertical bending stiffness is mainly generated by the weak. Have taken all appropriate measures, then it seems better, but soon there is vibration, but also add to the trend, the problem did not resolve. Therefore, the chief architect of the aircraft in accordance with the requirements of Chen Jian, Zhang Kerong by the Chinese Academy of vice president of flight agree that they are in the vertical plane 83 near the rudder leading edge root and tip vibration sensor installed to the measured mode shape of the air and the order of magnitude, by the vice president of the new driving test to do a hero Huang Bingqiu vibration test.

August 25, 1992 morning, the plane took off after the 3000 meters in the high altitude, Mach number 0.8,0.85,0.9 when there was no vibration, flight is normal. Aircraft at 8000 meters high rise, 0.8M, 0.85M without vibration, when the table speed increased to 800 km / h when the aircraft about 1.04M obvious vibration. Closed throttle deceleration and then dropped when the 5000 meters high, 0.8M, 0.9M to normal level flight, the aircraft accelerated to 1.03M unacceptable vibration. After continued growth, with an increase of M increased vibration, 1.07M, 1.09M instruments within the cockpit when the aircraft are not clear indicators swing plane may fall to pieces. Closed throttle when the rear of the aircraft and issued a noise, aircraft sluggish, very calm, when the rudder had been ripped, by virtue of the driver safety superb smooth flying skills to fly back to the airport, setting the plane landed safely without rudder miracle. Measured by out data analysis, that is a typical rudder Ong Ming (Vibration is a destructive form).

To further analyze the causes of alarms generated Ong and solutions, decided to invite Yanliang, the factory / 10 outside experts to conduct in-depth discussion. September 1, 1992 meeting on the 2nd end. Experts, especially Professor Nan Elizabeth西工大Ong Ming vibration in the form set out at the same time, tell the "Flying Leopard" design of the aircraft rudder was mainly lack of torsional stiffness, the focus is still too weak axis, after the elastic deformation forces, and in Transonic flight control surface when there is elastic deformation, resulting in shock before and after the move of "Ong-ming." Tip has at times not to bad and bad rudder, which is mainly local stiffness weak tip, resulting in forced vibration caused. Unified understanding of the meeting, agreed on a solution. Lin Zongtang former Minister of the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics was Yanliang inspection, subject to listen to the expert group report, the experts expressed their thanks to the hard work. , The factory, the hospital comrades, especially those in charge of the leadership attaches great importance to this meeting, the recommendations seriously and take the fast and good measure, so that aircraft flying transonic vertical vibration "difficult" issues have been removed at the end of resolved; This "Flying Leopard" aircraft is a very important event, that is, after the design of the new machine should also bear in mind the lessons learned.

"Feibao" type test

As we all know, "Feibao" type of aircraft flight time workload, five machine 82 test items, test 9 sorties in 1603; projects and more complex, such as the fire control system to test the air, on land, sea features, test equipment used in measuring light, telemetry, and a considerable number of live examination; new product is also more than 176 most of all in-flight test, in addition to other aircraft (such as F-7 Ⅱ, FT-6, F-6, Yun-5, "the call" and H-5) flew 305 sorties, the other major new products have to fly in this machine, such as radar, INS, 210 Doppler navigation systems, missile fire control system, the launch of a certain type of research trials bombs, shells, etc. to fight stereotypes. I have been to the sea test 4 times, each time I have to fly in with the office or at the scene, the deep, house plants, especially test flight in the organization of work in different places is very good, very structured organization .

Shape of the new test machine, I experience how much a little balance; in 1985 to 1987 served as the F-8 Ⅱ, F-7 Ⅲ, FT-7 aircraft type III, deputy commander-in-chief test (is the commander-in-chief, Vice-Minister Wang Ang), basically Yanliang test in perennial house. F-7 Ⅲ test several times in the side of the landing gear appeared to fit the situation in the air, the air for one or two are not fit to take the time continued to 3,4 months; once to switch the air not to repeat the success of a number of strengths the ground is ready to made an emergency landing, after a last-ditch effort to release a success. This experience made me test the new machines have experience of large risks.

F-8 Ⅱ, FT-7 is primarily in the test did not risk too much of Sui and progress smoothly. But the "Flying Leopard" is not, since 1989 has been adjusted stereotypes flight until the end of 1995 to 7 years, to take part in the work of the majority of people, including me, always in a very nervous state. The reason is that: 1. New aircraft and more new products, lack of experience so that people can "birth" are concerned; 2. More initial failures, oil spills, leaks, leak, leakage (electromagnetic interference), out of rivets, such as the skin cracks open fault in the first two years of flying, that is, from 1989 to 1990 often. On a flight out of the aircraft can be limited, to be flying venue, the original single-aircraft machine arrangements 2 to 3 per flight could not finish most missions, only the completion of 30 ~ 40%, mainly multi-failure. Old unable vexing flight plan 1 3. Sui constant risk, the main landing gear pivot point C (the root of a fixed point) crack, automatic air down the side of flap, two successive fuel 60mm thick lead pipe was torn off and a large number of oil spills in the air; aircraft tail vibration vibration lead to crack bad vertical vibration, ventral fin, rudder more than that the last flight out the rudder; there are a number of flights landing at the runway from the side fell out of mud, in Yanliang, Xingcheng have happened. Fortunately, in my 7 years did not have the level of flight accident, but the spirit has always been true in a very nervous state. Test in two cases occurred in the fuel pipe leading air was torn off and the aircraft returned to the rear landing field a白雾soon missing more than two tons of oil, the time came to a halt on the runway has been little oil; Fortunately, the pilot found As early as back in time, otherwise the difference between a few minutes on the plane going out in the over-the-counter, will result in serious accidents. After the rain there is in flight, due to leakage relays, air circuit automatically connect to aircraft automatic flap side down; at that time only a few hundred meters altitude, the aircraft suddenly rolling is very dangerous. In retrospect, really scared! Recall of these, it is necessary to emphasize again and again, the new test machine must do everything possible to strengthen the organization and management, and seriously good quality and safety of the clearance.

The later rounds to fight stereotypes and make up two years of flying, including INS, the test flight is to end in 1997, for a total of 9 years; this case thought, time and some long. Flying sorties to count, the machine which machine a total of 1908 flight sorties per aircraft per year is flying small aircraft; flight recorded a registration form from 1989 to 1991 have basically 3ff training pilots, flight schedule and adjust it. No. 85 the fifth frame is 5 November, 1991 test was submitted to hospital, while the latter two years 1996 and 1997 is mainly a certain type of shell shape and the individual projects up to fly, that is, for hanging up shells flying aircraft and INS only a few sorties task. Type of aircraft flight in 1992 was mainly completed in 1995, some of which were ranked test it. The former two years after 3 years and add up to 5 years to do compression in 2 to 3 years, is entirely possible that this is for product quality and organization and management is wrong. This is certainly not what a, what a few people, but from the technology, production quality, and overall strengthening of the organization and management to start, but I think the most important thing is the work of the organization and management.

"Feibao" sea test is the industrial sector and the military cooperation, the joint trial. Cooperation is not bad, quite a few contradictions. 1. On the site. "Feibao" aircraft to be referred to the Liaodong Bay marine field test of the subject in the early 80's to come in 1986 or the year .1985. Six former Defense Agency, Navy aircraft and aviation equipment industry focus on the new machine to do the responsible person in charge of the joint to Shanhaiguan comrades, Xingcheng investigation, I was one of the main members. Linked by air-to-ship missiles to the H-6 Haihang troops in Shanhaiguan shared with the Civil Aviation Airport to fly, the original Department of Space Hospitals Comrade cooked, and that this airport bomb arsenals, so that the conditions have been used to fly "Feibao" comrades of the aviation sector also have such an idea. Shanhaiguan to repair the runway but, more important is the Navy's deputy commander Li personally investigated, that the Navy put Xingcheng Airport Flight School.

At that time, the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, as well as six CSTIND Bureau, Ministry of the sea plane loaded comrades want to use H-6 to the path, stressing there is no bomb Xingcheng library, there is no hangar, in various aspects of Shanhaiguan shun some work; After several investigations, an attempt to repair the runway and flight test that can be staggered. "Flying Leopard" release Shanhaiguan sea conditions test the best venues, but Li is scheduled to release Xingcheng deputy commander, can not be changed. At that time, we speculated that the head may want to test drive the adoption of a new building to bring together Xingcheng airport. Xingcheng let the facts prove that it is appropriate, as "Flying Leopard" Xingcheng sea flying test subjects at sea more than a long time (before and after 4 years), on the combat troops and civil aviation airport is the common defect of Shanhaiguan ; test drive the adoption of a new machine you Xingcheng airport construction, as the industrial sector should be supported. 2. Navy flight test base hospital and the division of labor difficult. Home is engaged in aviation flight flight testing and identification of product units that they should be responsible for a certain type of aircraft to fit the air-to-ship missile fire control system test, identification and the use of test equipment; and naval test base's mission is to test identification of ships and the use of weapons by sea (including air-to-ship missiles), the accuracy of missiles and fire control system can not do without, it should also be testing base that they are responsible, should be installed on board of their test equipment. This has held only four or five times, the years have been spent pulling unclear, because of arguments could not convince each other more with each other. CSTIND later issued a document in principle, is based on their understanding of the work separately. Higher authorities in the step-by-step help and coordination with each other, and gradually move forward to running. Test equipment on board the flight home was mainly to test the base of individual equipment is also installed. Later in the plane and on the ground, the pilot for the Navy base in the ground radar and telemetry theodolite, optical measurement data and Hospitals director on board the use of the data are contradictory, there had been each other to provide information on the impact of work to do.

Over the division of flight also involves setting committee will be appointed and the division of sea interface, because they can not experience the past, some controversy is inevitable, but in the future should have to abide by rules and regulations. Can find a source of drafting to all parties concerned to discuss the revised final version, issued by the competent authorities to implement.

3, the airspace, the use of hard waters. Pilot workload, and will involve many issues, the complexity of the relationship; technical issues, and more subject to the control conditions. To complete a scientific research flight vehicles, first of all on board equipment is better, is often a failure of radar, radio. Followed by ground-based radar, telemetry theodolite optical measurement, such as better, which is very difficult because the equipment is too old, more than one optical measuring theodolite齐武text is often uneven. The third is better weather, the rain season in this region have great visibility and foggy poor, the impact of test results; and waves can not be great, otherwise do not target ship out; difficult to clean up the waters Fourth, in the past, a particularly large number of vessels and fishing vessels; Fifth airspace to able to tune to open with a piece of airspace in Jinzhou, Shanhaiguan, Suizhong, Xingcheng, such as flying aircraft have had to queue up. Naval test base is often the task of conflict, many things short of trouble, it is very difficult to work.

For all these, "Flying Leopard" is a step-by-step coordination of the models, and gradually came running, and with a very long time. Next modified test machine should seek ways to improve, or may be more difficult, as also involved in the Air Force, Air Force test base and more units. Therefore recommended that future large-scale test of this scene, there is real power to organize the coordination of scheduling agencies, to progress faster if it is very difficult.

Aircraft reliability, maintainability (R, M) the issue of aircraft reliability, maintainability (R, M) for worse, the equipment is one of the important issues of life and death, is welcome and accept the forces the aircraft to customs importance; because of reliability, poor maintenance of the aircraft very difficult to ensure timely implementation of combat orders, combat mission completed. "Feibao" aircraft design began in the late 70s, early 80s, when our design team knows very little about the reliability of aircraft, in this regard is not specifically taken into account; Fortunately, also in 1990 or later, defense Science and Industry Commission set aside a section for active duty and in the research models to improve reliability, the maintenance work. Since then is the key aircraft parts and all the new annex as well as the manipulation of products, hydraulic, fuel, flight control, fire control systems, such as a reliability comprehensive lessons done a great deal of experimental research to improve all the weak links. The original service life of only 2 to 3 years, 200 to 300 flying hours are up to 8 years 700 hours, an increase of 2 ~ 3 times. Only 3 to 4 years, about × XX × million on completion of such a major project, a huge success. Also in the maintenance of a lot of work to do. Haihang organizations in three years 1990,1991 "Feibao" aircraft maintenance f Health Research, review, raised a total of 224 observations (the first 176, second 9, third 39), the joint research in the trial approved the grant and 1 for change 171; the remaining 53, after repeated consensus study, still using the original design state. Commitment to the development of the relevant tasks, the factory, the hospital sector on the use of the request, his attitude reflects the dedication and spirit of a conscientious and responsible, these are the "Flying Leopard" popular forces today an important aspect of love.

Shanhaiguan fly in "9910" mission (the founding of the military parade in 50 years) of the aircraft, 10 aircraft flying 70 sorties a day, a very high attendance; forces early in the new machine when there is such a success, I think the international level, This is certainly due to the reliability and maintenance make up a missed lesson. Would like to stress here that the CSTIND reliability, maintenance and remedial decision-making entirely correct, the competent authorities at all levels conscientiously grasp is meritorious. This fully reflects the research and development in the new machine the importance of organization and management.

To force early delivery of production aircraft approved trial

"Feibao" aircraft from December 14, 1988 the maiden flight in December 1990 to the fourth office CSTIND when the scene is over two full years, the aircraft in flight three, there are flight test Machine 2 will certainly be able to pay in 1991, the factory test house, then consider: 1. Although the small aircraft to fly, but that will not be a major issue subversive; 2. The production of new machines from the preparation, ordering products installed (new 176) to the aircraft, the fastest 3 years, 4 years before the general will be submitted to the Air Force, the general manager of XAC邵国斌office will lead to the proposed site , requested the meeting agreed to a number of companies producing aircraft ready to carry out preparation work is expected to vote. At that time, the Navy leadership and the General Staff did not table Comrade views CSTIND Xie Guang, deputy director of a number of aircraft is not clear when the vote is expected, but the proposed aircraft delivered in 1994 to have force. This means that when the vote is expected, all set by the factory. Shao, general manager came to me after the talk that the risk would also be expected to get the materials ready for work. My personal opinions of authorities, it is recommended to see a year, the software can do the plan. Be on the plane in 1994 to force the request to pay a new course, a good, if not, pay 2 to complete the three tasks stereotypes trial batch test aircraft or aircraft should also be considered to pay the troops.

In fact the fifth aircraft in November 1991 to be submitted to test homes. In June 1991 in the fifth on-site office, when the progress of offensive stereotypes test, mainly to adjust and test scheduling it, the little fly type subjects, there will be no problem in terms of new aircraft production. 1992 until the end of the sixth on-site office will be again, if the head is still talk of living; but this time a plant is determined, the actual operations in 1993, 3 years later in 1995 that is a force to the delivery of new aircraft. CSTIND Xie Guang, deputy director in 1994, forces have to deliver the requirements of the aircraft also realized that after a year 992,1993-site office will be two of the trial whether or not to lease the aircraft to deliver troops, paying a few planes, which cross - several discussion brewing on the issue of non-payment of pay, to pay his speech, Comrade the General Staff. As for paying a few planes, three views of the industrial sector, the Navy claims 2, CSTIND two cross-heads. Which has two arguments, the head of the navy later said, according to the views of the industrial sector, cross-End stereotypes first test flight of the 81 subjects and 82 of the two machines; pay troops before a major overhaul factories from this part of the money to pay troops, costs fees from consumer research and account fees. The two machines in the second half of 1994 to return to the West from the test house to begin flying the company overhaul, painting and so on, in 1995 the troops.

This paper is to explain: 1. The industrial sector by the Institute of Plant Defense, the military head of the speech is a serious request, and do everything possible to carry out the implementation; 2. There are some things to have predictable, long gestation, early work schedule can be achieved basically; what happened there is no need for the ideologically and organizationally prepared to work, it is difficult to achieve the desired objectives. Would like to stress that some things still have to plant a little courage, if necessary, some risks have to dare to Tam. In a number of production issues, plant is dry at risk, 'get a little more time, and its inestimable value! It is likely to be as responsible for the "9910" laid the foundation for the task, and "9910" task Feibao aircraft in the history of the development will be an extremely valuable possession.

Re: JH-7/JH-7A Thread

Part five-translation

The convening of "Flying Leopard" will review the design of stereotypes

"Feibao" aircraft flight test work of stereotypes, is the climax in 1993, flying nearly 500 sorties a year, high efficiency; with the first two years of flight, aircraft have been flying after the basic performance, indicators to meet the design requirements, data has been received in hand. Consideration in late 1993, after the test flight in 1994, aircraft systems, weapons, can fly End products can be requested at the end of flight is scheduled to convene to do aircraft design review will be stereotypes, was scheduled to run Comrade oral route promised to be arranged. 19 94 However, the end of the year, very good shape test the progress of the work achieved by the plan, the remaining few items, but the test report did not take out a large amount of data to organize, write a formal technical report, it is to spend time; at that time to require at least six months That is to say, to 1995 7 to 8 months to complete, the idea failed in 1994.

February 1995 15 to 17 in Xi'an Yanliang Defense held a "Flying Leopard" on-site office will be the eighth, when the aircraft has been flying nearly 1,500 sorties, with the exception of a certain type of air-to-ship missile fire control system would also like to fly , shells also hit, the aircraft performance and flight of the system have been finished. It was agreed in 1995, ahead of the aircraft, the design of stereotypes review scheduled flight operators will also be included in the annual plan. In this year, our industrial sector will be invited to do aircraft comrades, the military equipment and sea CSTIND Yanliang authorities to check the six comrades to listen to design, test house, factory reports provide guidance and asked for urged to speed up the work. However, 8 in September asked to apply for the design of the report had not yet been reported stereotypes, stereotypes that have not yet completed test report, the aircraft will be repeatedly stressed comrades do: 1. Hospitals must get stereotyped flight test report; 2. Division to get the total system, the Navy and industry to review the application of the design report stereotypes; 3. To show that the Navy's conventional weapons systems and a certain type of air-to-ship missile weapon system in the two test machines (the former No. 85, which is No. 84), not a machine is equipped with all the weapons have been integrated with the test, how review the design of stereotypes (this is a loophole, but the chief architect, vice president flight test division emphasized that the outline shape is a flight review by experts, aircraft operators will be approved); 4. Air will be also stressed the need to do the entire weapon system (meaning air-to-ship missile first shape) design stereotypes review, ahead of the aircraft that did not have to file (which means it CSTIND minutes-site office will not do).

As a result, in 1995, "Flying Leopard" aircraft design and difficult to shape the review. Some people have lost faith, because if over a certain type of stereotyping, such as bombs, shells and then come up with the report of the application of stereotypes is in 1997 or after. However, the industrial sector and marine equipment managers in the directorate's support, did not lose confidence, it can be said for this is run off his leg.

In short we are in 1995 in their work on three fronts: 1. Stereotyped grasping end test, this time with particular emphasis on flight safety. 2. Grasp the design, production, test summary report. In addition to 70 and sea-based means to do scheduling in the field every day, week-week meeting, regular briefings issued, the authorities continue to comrades to the site supervision and inspection, demands, and criticism, or the progress on such a delay was mainly heavy workload and demanding, and more repeatedly. 3. To grasp the design of the existing stereotypes supporting the work finished. There are 2 products matching the beginning of the year 5 to 6, such as radar 232H, 563 INS, 622 flight control, 210 Doppler navigation system, as well as several of the three types of finished products is very difficult, mainly in the number of test问题. Really busy these flights will be run out of comrades, and through repeated work, and ultimately be resolved.

Comrades of the industrial sector bodies and the Department of the sea plane fitted together so Haihang Comrade, Comrade aircraft scheduled to do work that the repeated organization, factory, hospital listening to the reports to learn more about the situation, clarify our office and on-site will views. During this time a certain type of air-to-ship missile test shells (the Department of Hospitals aerospace design and development) of great help, it is to live up to expectations; in 10 to 11 months had 6 fat 6 to prove that bombs and fire control systems are very good ( the production of stereotypes is only temporary shells do not come out), first designed for the aircraft type to create a very favorable review of the conditions. However, Office He scheduled flight path, or insist on the total, did not complete a full set of weapons loaded aircraft must have an official document of the problem.

Click here to say, the sea filled with comrades, especially the division Xu Ganquan total outstanding contribution made. Personally for his deputy commander of the Navy He reported the case, the deputy commander of the naval He work, and finally to the aircraft by the Navy set out to do a formal document, acknowledged by the experts invited to discuss all aspects of assessment of all relevant parties the approval of the outline and the shape of its flight test results, agreed to review the status of the design of shape (I know more than the effect); is implemented in December 1995 in the aircraft scheduled to run under the auspices of Xian on Renmin Square in the completion of the first type aircraft design review for the delivery of aircraft and aircraft approved the creation of the conditions of production.

Please list the Air Force improved faster loading

From the decision in 1986 to concentrate on doing better seat string type, the requirements of the Air Force and Block-based research carried out the time being since the first, with the exception of the host subject of argument by some studies, very few people to raise the issue. On the one hand is busy with work, some trade-off; the main idea or the Air Force was also used string Block, and Block, asked not to be so severe.

October 1988 27 to 30, I went with the Air Force deputy commander of the Chengdu Lin Hu check development projects, one day Lin deputy commander of the morning with a walk in the hospital, I reported the "Flying Leopard" Development progress made during the year will be able to first, please consider the use of the Air Force. Lin was deputy commander of the speakers: 1. Block and Block, or the string is not a big problem, the Air Force Block string can also be used. 2. The main problem is the current engine bay hair now. 2. The main problem is the current engine, engine bay is now only a few so will the production of several aircraft, how well familiar with the Navy's competition for the engine? I said: the Navy has not only to a few aircraft, the engine is always to solve the problem, it can be resolved. Lin stresses the deputy commander at the time: the engine problem this big, not very well resolved.

Lin Hu deputy commander of the message states: "Flying Leopard" Block Series Air Force aircraft platform able to accept, but it is not satisfied with the used engine is not in favor of domestic production from the United Kingdom introduced the engine bay. Again here, the engine bay, on the one hand is to promote the "Flying Leopard" Development of a driving force, and its high reliability to ensure that the stereotypes test; on the other hand, due to the handling of non-determination, no determination made as early as impeding the " Feibao "forces to become the new generation of aircraft and equipment.

"Flying Leopard" Development of a time when success in sight, from the beginning of the year 1992,1993, organized by the Xi'an Aircraft Design for air force, the Navy's request to do a new design of improved research work, many times to report to the military officers; LI Hongyi, director of personally led to the air, naval authorities, and air and a demonstration of the reporting unit and for comments, of course, each must have the original Defense, the Department and the Department of the General Staff and equipment, authorities reported instructions Corporation. As far as I know had a series of 4 to 5 years, perseverance and dedication. Comrades of the navy and air authorities also organized research unit of the military personnel to Yan-liang, the factory, the hospital conducted an investigation and study. Such as the February 21, 1994, I accompanied the eight total space division Comrade Wang Ming with the professionals by the Xi'an Aircraft Design, Xi'an Aircraft Company, the Air Force Research Institute test the use of "Flying Leopard" aircraft. The main change he advocated the electronic fire control and weapons, the overall structure of the aircraft and the engine should not be changed, these ideas are very conducive to early to get the equipment for China's national conditions, I will help to accelerate the improvement of the Air Force equipment. However, within the controversy said to them is still the focus of the engine problems, there are some people, however to turn this one through. Of course there was more to change the views of small differences, so that delay the development of the aircraft to improve as long as 6,7 years, until August 1999 to be finalized. Therefore, I call it a matter of regret sad. "Air File" magazine in 2009 the first five

Re: JH-7/JH-7A Thread

I'm not sure if these was posted before. EW pods for the JH-7A. Does not look like a specialized variant, but something that can be installed in any JH-7 or JH-7A. Plane depicted here is actually a JH-7.

I bet the 23mm gun will not take up much space in a JH-7A. Even JH-7A convert into special EW plane, the gun may still be retain.

Re: JH-7/JH-7A Thread

a lot of interesting photos that I saw on CDF for JH-7. The first one looks like a JH-7A with 2 different types of YJ-91?

The second one is an old JH-7 with YJ-83K

And the third one is an EW JH-7 with the pods looking different.

Re: JH-7/JH-7A Thread

Anybody has any idea on how much extra weight the JH7A can carry in the sky? I mean suppose the maximum take off weight is 30 tons, the empty weight is 21.5 tons. Then there're 8.5 tons for extra payload. If the JH7A carries 7 tons of weapon to take off, then there are only 1.5 tons left for fuel. So after taking off, the plane can refuel from the tanker. So my question is, how much fuel it can take? The maximum flying weight should be significantly larger than the maximum take off weight. Say, is it possible for JH7A to carry 5 tons of fuel and 7 tons of weapon?
