Chapter 708 Air Show Opening
Andrei was the one who proposed it, and Ustinov was the one who made the final decision. Sergei had no choice but to accept it, but now he really couldn't understand it, especially when he saw the American transport planes coming, and he even prepared a hangar and equipment for them. Now, the two sides are mortal enemies. Just a few months ago, they had a big fight.
"Yes, peace and development are the main themes of the world." Andrei said, "We, the Soviet Union, love peace. We are holding an air show now to let more people who don't know us, the Soviet Union, know us. We are not the monsters in the eyes of Westerners. We are also flesh and blood people. Moreover, we have better conditions here than in the West."
Sergei is certainly not an ordinary person to be able to sit in the position of dean. He soon understood what Andrei meant. This might be related to the European strategy of the top leaders!
As a series of problems in the Far East and the Middle East are solved, the next problem is Europe! Europe cannot be solved through war like the Far East and the Middle East. Obviously, this is a big chess game!

Especially, thinking of the arrangements in the exhibition hall, Sergei felt that General Andrei was pitting the Americans again! The Americans came here with great enthusiasm, wanting to show the excellent performance of their fighter planes at the air show and slap the Soviet Union in the face, but they never thought that they would leave in disgrace in the end!
"Sergey, what kind of plane do you think the Americans will send this time to participate in our air show?" Andrei asked Sergey.

Sergei shook his head. "I can't guess. It is said that the British intended to send Tornado fighters, but the Americans stopped them. The only fighter the Americans could come up with should be the F-15. However, we have already mastered the performance of this fighter. Our Su-27 can suppress the American F-15 in all aspects. Logically, they should not send F-15s. However, their new generation of fighters are still under development, so they should not send them. Could it be that they sent F-16s?"
The C-5 transport plane must be loaded with the aircraft used by the Americans for the air show. The hangar has been rented to the Americans, and their agents have checked it. It is impossible to put a camera inside. Now, the Americans should be assembling the fighter plane inside. Sergei really wants to go in and take a look.

"I guess it's an improved F-15 fighter jet from the Americans. They removed all the avionics equipment to reduce the weight, and are preparing to make a splash at the air show." Andre said, "The answer will be revealed in a couple of days. I'm also very curious about what gift the Americans will give us."
With the arrival of American transport aircraft, the air show has entered the countdown.
On February 11, 1982, the Moscow Air Show officially kicked off. This air show attracted a large number of visitors. In addition to the Soviet people, there were also many faces from Western Europe.

The first item of the air show is a static display, and there will be a flying show in the afternoon.
At this time, in the newly built exhibition hall, countless police officers were maintaining order, and people were moving slowly, just like the tourist areas in the Chinese holidays in later generations.
Günter Rall, holding the passport issued by the embassy and the ticket for the exhibition, finally entered the exhibition area after being repeatedly checked by the KGB personnel at the door.
Taking a deep breath, Günter Rall looked around. The open ground was now crowded with people, and outside each booth there were some policemen guarding. The things in these booths could only be viewed from a distance.

Even so, it was the first time that we came into close contact with Soviet air force equipment!
Picking up his camera, Günter Lahr could finally take pictures without any scruples.

Although the Soviets claimed that the Moscow Air Show was a global air show like the Paris Air Show, now looking around, almost all of them are Soviet products, it is simply the Soviet Union's own exhibition. Apart from the United States, only France sent the Mirage 2000. France is unique and is a wonder in the Western world.
Now, the main thing is to see the Soviet fighter planes! Those nearby are all outdated MiG-15, MiG-17 and the like. Gunter-Lahr has no interest in these fighter planes. What he wants to see most is the Soviet Union's advanced third-generation aircraft, MiG-29 and Su-27!
Fortunately, Günter Rall was quite tall. He looked around the entire field and finally found the fighter plane with a canopy covered with canvas in a corner. Wasn't that the Su-27 he had been looking for?
The most advanced fighter plane of the Soviet Union! Although Günter-Lahr scoffed at the propaganda films made by the Soviets, there was no doubt that this fighter plane was the top fighter plane at present.

Fortunately, this fighter jet was not covered with canvas like the American fighter jets, only the canopy was covered, so Günter Rall was still able to see its true appearance.
Of course, during the Cold War, reconnaissance satellites from both sides, as well as pilots flying close to it, had taken photos of this fighter, so its appearance was no longer a secret. However, this was his first time to see this fighter up close.
The entire fighter plane has a smooth appearance, as if it is a whole lifting body, and the engine fits so tightly underneath, it is simply perfect!
Although the two sides are in a hostile position, Günter Rall still praises this fighter jet and says it has an extremely beautiful appearance!
✨ *Your reading journey starts here!* **wtr-lab.com**
In comparison, the US F-15 does not use wing slats at all, and the US Tornado is only a second-generation aircraft with variable swept wings, which seems to be outdated. The French Mirage 2000 is even more backward.
Holding up the camera with a gun barrel, Günter Rall took clear pictures one after another. After returning, he could finally study this fighter plane carefully!
It's a pity that I can only take pictures of the appearance. It would be best if I could go up and feel the cockpit, then open the nose and see what kind of radar is inside. It would be best if I could fly in the sky for a while!
Just then, there was a commotion in the crowd. Günter Lahr looked over in surprise and saw a face that was extremely familiar from the intelligence walking through the crowd and onto the booth.

Microphones have been set up at the booth.
It turns out that they were going to announce the opening ceremony next to this plane. Damn, this is too arrogant.
