"Belyakov, we meet again. Unexpectedly, it will take more than twenty years to come." Mr. Yang, the new chief engineer of J-8, said to an assistant beside Ivan Migoyang.

"Yang, I didn't expect that it was you!" Belyakov, opposite, reached out and hugged Mr. Yang enthusiastically. Back then, the Migoyang Design Bureau sent some people to help China carry out the production of MiG21. Who would have thought that before the production was fully launched, they accepted the transfer order and went back. At that time, Mr. Yang was working with Belyakov. Now, he saw his old friend again, and both of them were excited and tears were flowing out.

At that time, it was a very busy era. These engineers from the Soviet Union had no airs. They went down the workshop with their own side to overcome various problems and wanted to help the country produce advanced MiG21 as soon as possible. It's a pity.

The political situation at that time was a problem between the supreme leaders. In private, everyone had a good relationship. Speaking of the past years, it was very impressive.

Now, there are many scenes like Belyakov and Mr. Yang. People who came back to the Soviet Union for the first time were excited to see their old friends back then. They were all filled with tears in their eyes and mentioned the past. In a blink of an eye, time passed so long, and everyone finally met again.

This lively scene instantly made the relationship between the two sides more intimately. After all, for China's aviation industry, the Migoyang Design Bureau is an absolute teacher. Each fighter jet was learned from Migoyang.

It took more than ten minutes to get to know each other's old friends. When everyone's talk ended, the team of the inspection team was in chaos. It should have been separated and clearly divided, but now everyone has gathered together and become a team.

When we came to the design bureau, we first saw the history display room that displays various aircraft model pictures. Now, when we walked in, Belyakov also said proudly: "Everyone, we are the first batch of Chinese guests to visit here. Now, we have just celebrated the 40th anniversary of the establishment of our design bureau. We have been exhibiting from a design bureau with more than 70 people to the current design of more than 15o aircraft. Our design bureau is also very proud."

Everyone visited along the picture and suddenly stopped.

"Isn't this our J-Sect Five?"

"Yes, this is also a modification of our MiG-17." The other party said with a smile.

Mr. Tu suddenly was stunned. At this time, he walked to the front of a beautiful fighter. This was a light fighter with a conventional layout of abdomen air intake. There were not only text introductions, but also models. This was a 33m plan, with a normal take-off weight of 9 tons, a take-off of 13.5 tons, and 8 plug-ins, using Rd33 modification motor. This fighter is almost exactly similar to its own seven, except for the different air intake ducts!

"Now, let's go to the MiG29 production line and let everyone see the production of our most advanced fighter. To be honest, I don't understand. You seem to be a little repulsive to our fighter." Shaboshnikov said.

The Migoyang Design Bureau has absolutely the highest status in the Soviet Union. You can know by looking at their design bureaus and production enterprises, all of which are in Moscow. Seventy, the Migoyang Design Bureau, its full name is the Moscow Machinery Manufacturing Factory named after Migoyang.

The Design Bureau has just seen the photos here, so there is nothing to visit. This is the case in the design unit. Besides, it is much more open and may cause leakage. After all, the main task of their Design Bureau is to study the fourth-generation machine project 1.42, which is highly confidential.

Now, let’s take a look at the MiG 29 production workshop.

While walking, everyone was talking. General Lin's expression was very serious when he heard Shaposhnikov's words beside him: "You also know that it took a long time to choose our Air Force fighter jet. After all, for us, choosing a fighter jet must be able to adapt to the needs of our Air Force. We hope to have a long-range fighter jet. The MiG29 is not suitable for us. We are very looking forward to seeing the Su-27."

This requires laying the foundation for the other party little by little. Now, with this friendly atmosphere and sincere request from the other party, General Lin obviously moved the other party.

"Yes, we will think seriously. My friend." Shaposhnikov said.

While speaking, I had already entered the factory.

The factory here looks even more spectacular.

The production of fighter jets is not yet an assembly line operation, but the most traditional station installation. The number of stations determines the production capacity of fighter jets. In the World War II, hundreds of stations were often assembled in factories. If you want to walk around in the workshop, you have to drive an electric car. Now, as jet fighters become more and more expensive, the output is also less and less. In China, even J-7 fighters have an annual output not as large as hundreds. But now, looking at the assembly workshop here, you can see how terrifying the output of this fighter jet is.

"This fighter has a large amount of titanium alloy for the fuselage, so our factory has added several titanium alloy parts production lines. The main stress beams of the fuselage are made of titanium alloy." Ivan Migoyang introduced to everyone.

With the continuous development of fighter jets, the proportion of lightweight aviation metals such as titanium alloy will inevitably be used more and more, especially in the stress-bearing parts of the fuselage. Now, you can see the large frame of the shiny titanium alloy gradually forming the overall shape of the fuselage.

"When the MiG29 was manufactured, due to the need for wing body fusion, our processing required more complex curved surfaces. Therefore, we have also updated a lot of mechanical equipment, and CNC machine tools have begun to be used in the production of some parts."

This is a key point. They are enthusiastically introducing the advanced production lines to their customers in China and have begun to use CNC machine tools!

Of course they didn't know that the Chinese people's vision had been widened. They had long seen Western fighter jet production lines. For example, in Grumman, they had long seen all CNC machine tools. All design drawings were on computers, directly connected with the machine tools to produce various parts. In this regard, the country is also working hard to get closer. For example, the domestic No. 10 project is planning to adopt the same method. In this regard, the Migoyang Design Bureau is actually lagging behind.
