Soviet, Moscow.
"Andre, I haven't returned to Moscow for a long time." Lyudmila said softly beside Andre: "This is the capital of our great motherland. There are many places of interest. If you want to If so, how about I take you around?"
Listening to Lyudmila's words, there was a warmth in Andrei's heart. Although his eyes were dark, his heart was already calm as water. He had struggled and hesitated, but now he finally recovered his peace.
Maybe, this is a test, I will definitely pass this test, and, here, I also reaped love.
Lyudmila insists on marrying Andre in spite of everyone's opposition. If Andre can't recover his vision, then she is willing to be his life's eye.
Lyudmila knew that she had fallen in love with this hero incorrigibly.
After a simple wedding ceremony was held in Vladivostok, Lyudmila began his honeymoon with Andrei. First of all, he returned to Moscow, which would coincide with the October Revolution parade. Andre’s heroic battle. Since Andre has been awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union, Andre is eligible to participate in this military parade. At that time, he will stand on the red square and wear sunglasses, even if he is watching Without knowing everything around him, he could also feel the atmosphere.
This is the honor he deserves.
At the same time, it can be checked in the best ophthalmology hospital in Moscow, what if there is hope
Lyudmila was firm in her choice, and now the train finally entered the station.
Pulling Andrei, Lyudmila got out of the car. On the platform outside, Lyudmila saw a familiar face.
"Sister Irina, I didn't expect you to come here in person." Lyudmila took her sister's hand and said happily.
"Come to take you home, this is Comrade Andre? Well, it looks good, but it's a pity..."
A few words were not finished, but Lyudmila stopped him: "Sister, let's go home."
"It's a pity that I am blind, but even though I can't see it, I can still serve the Soviets." Andrei said, "I will not give up."
"Andre, no one said your eyes." Lyudmila said, "Shall we go home?"
"I want to go to the Homeland Defense Air Force Command." Andre said: "You go back first."
"I'll take you with me." Lyudmila looked at her sister and apologized.
Irina was also very embarrassed and said, "Then let's go together."
"Soon?"
"Of course it's on the way."
After driving the car for more than an hour, Andre was constantly thinking about it. At this time, Andre was already able to control his emotions. He didn't feel any irritation just now, just what he thought of.
The MiG-25 has leaked secrets, and the MiG-25's interception of the Blackbird reconnaissance plane has also failed. Therefore, for the Soviets, the MiG-25 is no longer a sharp sword in their hands.
Before the era of the Su-27, guarding the sky of the Soviets could only be a better interceptor than the MiG-25, the MiG-31!
Andre heard some voices, the sentry at the door inquired, and then let him go.
It seems that the identity of this sister Irina is not ordinary, with such a large authority? Even if it is oneself, it is not easy to want to come in.
While sitting in the chair, Andrei heard a sound of footsteps a few minutes later.
"Comrade Andre, we all know your deeds. You are the pride of our homeland defense air force." A veteran general walked in: "I am the commander of the homeland defense air force Alexander Ivanovich Corduno. Head coach of the Husband Air Force."
"Commander!" Andre was suddenly excited: "It's nice to see you, no, I hear your voice."
"Sit down." Coach Alexander patted Andre on the shoulder, and then sat next to him: "What's the matter with you this time? Shouldn't you be on your honeymoon?"
"Commander, we have achieved a lot in recent months, but we have also exposed some problems, especially the defection of the hateful traitor Belenko, so that our MiG-25 has no secrets in front of the enemy. "Andre said: "With our current fighters, it is difficult to intercept the blackbird. Therefore, I suggest that we upgrade the MiG-25 to make it more powerful."
Andre can't directly talk about the MiG-31, after all, this is still a secret development model.
"How to upgrade?" The Alexander coach looked at Andre with interest.
"The current fighters are too fuel-intensive and should be upgraded to turbofan engines, so that the fighters can have a greater range." Andre said: "At the same time, the most important thing to improve is avionics. Our avionics system is too poor Yes, that EP-3 has been studied by us for a long time. Our scientific and technical personnel should also come up with some results? There is also a missile system. We urgently need a missile similar to the Phoenix, so that the fighter has a hundred Kilometer kill capability."
Alexander nodded: "Andre, this was originally a secret. I can tell you now. Our improvement plan has started long ago. We are now accelerating the test flight. The new project code is MiG-31. Improve your ideas."
The MiG-31, a new generation of Soviet interceptor, was planned two years ago. After many studies, it was finally determined to be an enlarged version of the MiG-25.
Although the appearance is almost the same, they are all dual-engined and double-vertical tail layouts, and the air intakes are similar. In fact, it looks like a perfect match.
Structurally, the amount of titanium used in MiG-31 has increased from 8% to 16% in MiG-25, and aluminum has increased from 12% to 33%. The engine was replaced by two Tumansky R-15 turbojets to two Soloviev D-30 turbofan engines with an afterburner thrust of 14,886 kg.
In terms of thrust-to-weight ratio and aerodynamic shape, the MiG-31 should be able to reach 3 times the speed of sound, but limited by the heat resistance of the engine and the body, the maximum speed is limited to Mach 2.8. With auxiliary fuel tanks, 4 R-33 missiles, and a cruise range of Mach 0.8, it has a range of 3,000 kilometers. If this fighter is deployed in the Far East, it can even fly directly to the east of the island country!
At the same time, I did gain a lot from that EP-3. Domestic technicians finally began to pay attention to the role of integrated circuits, instead of holding the electron tube.
After Andre was blind, he was still concerned about killing the enemy. He proposed the use of nuclear bombs to kill the enemy's reconnaissance plane, which allowed the Blackbird reconnaissance planes to converge a lot. Until now, no blackbirds have come. make trouble.
At the same time, after returning to Moscow for his honeymoon, Andre first came to the headquarters of the Homeland Defense Air Force to make suggestions for improving the MiG-25, which made Alexander very satisfied.
If he is not blind, he will definitely continue to be promoted. What a pity. (End of this chapter)
