The benefits of increased bomb load are obvious, even a bomber with a capacity of only 10 tons, such as the H-6, can carry six cruise missiles on its wings. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf the Valkyrie is equipped with a rotating bomb bay and a hardpoint on the wings, there will be no fewer than 25 eggs on it. Two Valkyries are enough to give the aircraft carrier fleet a saturation attack, and the combat power is quite powerful after the fight.

Of course, in the mind, the idea of losing weight for the Valkyrie is always just an idea, the plane is a system engineering that involves the whole body, and if you want to use a knife to lose weight for the Valkyrie, the technology required is very complicated, and it is not just a matter of finding a better material to replace it. In particular, the reduction of the engine directly changes the aerodynamic structure of the airframe, and the airframe layout needs to be readjusted. Moreover, after the internal equipment is lightweight and miniaturized, the center of gravity of the aircraft will change, and the workload will be no different from that of a newly designed aircraft.

However, Chen Xu will still insist that the R&D team do such a thing, because upgrading the body structure of the Valkyrie can greatly improve the R&D ability of the large aircraft of the flower family. Transforming on the existing basis of Valkyrie, with the ready-made body data as the foundation, the difficulty of research and development is much lighter, and more importantly, you can learn a lot of things.

It can be said that if the R&D team can successfully increase the bomb load of the Valkyrie to 60 tons, then the flower grower will be able to announce that it has mastered the R&D and production technology of strategic bombers.

The H-6 Treasure Knife has served in the flower planting family for nearly 50 years, during which various transformations and upgrades have been made, and the performance is no longer the same as the original. Valkyrie is so advanced, its slender body, the domestic R&D team will not get tired of playing for thirty or forty years!

If you want to introduce the Valkyrie, it is bound to introduce new engine technology, although the corresponding engine technology was also introduced when the F14 Tomcat was introduced, but it was only an assembly plant, and the materials and parts were imported from the United States. Not to mention R&D, not even the ability to reverse map!

With the current engine research and development capabilities of Zhonghua, it is simply impossible to transform and upgrade the engine imported from the United States. Therefore, it is also necessary to use the engine designers in the US imperialist family to help design an aero engine suitable for the Valkyrie.

In the fifties and sixties, the manufacturing technology of aero engines has not reached such an advanced level now, that is, the rocket is mounted on the aircraft, and later engineering scientists found that after installing a fan in the turbojet engine and turning it into a turbofan engine, not only the thrust can be increased by 40 percent, but the fuel consumption of the aircraft has also been considerably reduced, so the turbofan engine has become the mainstream engine now.

For example, when designing the F104 fighter that crashed Valkyrie II, designer Kelly Johnson borrowed dozens of rockets from the Air Force, and after modification, they were turned into turbojet engines and installed on the aircraft to test flight performance. So the leading edge of the wing is so sharp that it can be used to peel potatoes to man-the rocket, also known as the coffin in the air, and it is so poor in the pursuit of speed that even its T-tail can cut the pilot of a parachute jump in half. Its name was still made in Wanwan, and during its service in the Wanwan Air Force, 84 pilots were successfully killed, and this aircraft was given the title of "widowmaker".

Kelly Johnson is a genius aircraft designer at Lockheed, designed by Midea's P-38 Lightning twin-engine propeller fighter during World War II, and has made great achievements in the Pacific Theater and can often be seen in Hollywood war movies. In addition to designing the famous flying coffin F104, the genius designer's most outstanding works are the 'U2 Black Widow' and 'SR-71 Blackbird', two high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft.

At present, the big bull has retired from Lockheed, Chen Xu is ready to take advantage of the time to visit the big bull after the end of the negotiations, this eighty-year-old man if he does not have Alzheimer's disease, maybe he can hire this lonely old man to come to China as a foreign aid.

It just so happens that Chen Xu needs to carry out an overall weight loss transformation of the Valkyrie, if there is such a top aircraft designer to guide, it can definitely promote the project to progress at a very fast speed, Johnson is a designer with a big brain, and the transformation of the Valkyrie should be very in line with his taste.

With the current relations between China and the United States, it is not difficult to bring such talents into China, and the US imperialist Defense Department will even actively cooperate, because they still hope that this old man can get some secrets of China's aircraft manufacturing in China. Americans are also curious to know how China, which is so backward in industry, developed such an advanced technology aircraft as the V22 Osprey.

The engine technology of the fifties and sixties is certainly not in line with the progress of the times, so Chen Xu will only introduce the latest American aero engines, but the problem is that the crown jewel of the aero engine industry, as the top high-tech products in the human industrial system, is the product of the national industrial system after metallurgy, materials, electronics, machinery, and processing have all reached a certain level.

The core technology of aero engine lies in the process flow, only a curved surface process of an engine rotor blade is extremely complex, and the processing process can not be changed at all, for example, the material elements of the turbine blade are more and less The performance is completely different.

In the fifties, the flower planter got the aero engine production line from the Soviet Union, but it still could not develop a qualified aero engine, just because Lao Maozi was fine! They gave a production technology, the flower grower can only produce this engine according to the process, it is impossible to upgrade, because any change to the inside of the engine is a huge system engineering, and if the change is not right, the engine blades will break and the engine will be broken.

When a qualified engine is developed and experimented, explosion is a very normal phenomenon, in order to get a stable engine at least ten or twenty years of experiments, accumulate a large number of failed data, and then have the ultimate success of an aero engine, with failure is the mother of success to describe the aero engine research and development experimental process is really the most appropriate, the failure of the data is the foundation of a country's aviation research and development capabilities, without these foundations to talk about copycat aero engines is a joke.

The US imperialists put their most advanced F119 aero engine for the F22 in front of you, and even dismantled it into parts and spread it out, we can't study it! There are thousands of materials for an engine, and the millions of elements of the materials are matched like lottery numbers. Secondly, there are tens of thousands of special processing techniques that need to be pondered and studied, and it is more reliable to design your own engine from scratch.

This is also the reason why Chen Xu attaches great importance to materials science, and spends a lot of money to let the university set up a department of materials science, so that the country can have ready-made materials available when developing high-tech products in the future, rather than waiting for a few years to develop suitable materials.

Materials science must be at the forefront of the country's industry, preferably decades ahead, so that the industry will not be embarrassed by the lack of materials available.

Twenty years of research and development process, summed up in one point, must have sufficient financial support, the experiment of an engine to tens of millions, maybe in the test run at once, months of hard work instantly wasted. But this is normal, if the engine test fails, go back and build the next one, and when there are hundreds of units, you will basically have experience......

For example, after the U.S. imperial's F100 was installed as the power of the F15, problems and failures occurred frequently, and the spray point parts were very normal, even after mass production, they must be used very carefully, especially if they can't open the afterburner, they will definitely explode when they are opened! Turned the F15 into a hangar, and the queen was grounded for maintenance at every turn. However, with its high development potential, the F100 has been continuously upgraded and transformed into a highly reliable engine, and its improved models continue to provide surging power for the F15.

Therefore, it takes time to continuously improve the highly sophisticated industrial product of aero engine, and it is normal to spray parts and explode the body during this period.

But the problem is that when the flower growers are constantly exploding engines to accumulate experience, Western countries are also making progress, and the technology tree of aero engines is climbing higher and higher, and the technology is becoming more and more complex and sophisticated, so that the progress has been greatly stretched.

If the Chinese family wants to catch up, there is no other way than to double the money. Because it is not too late, the aero engine is the biggest shortcoming of China's industry, and the country must learn from the pain and must make its own core machine!

In order to no longer be led by the nose by foreign countries, China's aviation industry according to the experience accumulated in the previous decades, from the foundation of the research and development of aero engines, very pragmatic to start from the thrust of only ten kilograms of ultra-small thrust engine, and then twenty kilograms, thirty kilograms in turn to increase the difficulty to improve the thrust, to know that the greater the thrust of the aero engine, the technical difficulty will also increase geometrically.

Many people think that the thrust of the F119 engine on the most advanced F22 of the United States has almost reached 18,000 kilograms, and we are still playing with a ten-kilogram thrust engine.

But this is the time to lay the foundation, it is too ambitious, and the foundation is not stable, and it is impossible to make an advanced engine!

Wasn't China's steel industry even a fraction of that time comparable to the US imperialists? Now the output has accounted for half of the world's steel production, and the rapid development has only been more than 30 years.

In fact, in later generations, China's aviation industry has made 500 and 3000 kg thrust engines by 08 years after more than 10 years of laying the foundation, and it is expected that by 2020, it will be able to start mass production of 10,000 kg thrust aero engines. After a long wait, domestic military fans will soon be able to use domestic high-thrust engines with excellent performance for domestic transport aircraft and fighter jets. (To be continued.) )
