Since everything has been asked here, Yang Hui naturally announced the data in these plans, anyway, it is not the final data, these are irrelevant.

"After I make this plan, the new Jj empty weight will be about 13 tons, 7 tons of fuel in the aircraft, if you add the oil in the auxiliary fuel tank, there will be a maximum amount of 8 tons of fuel, as for the most important maximum take-off weight of the whole aircraft, it should reach between 28-29 tons."

When the preliminary data is announced, it would not be much surprised if Northrop knew about the previous Super Hornet fighter, but the problem is that the current Super Hornet has not yet appeared, and the data of the new J is definitely 'exceeded'.

"The size of a heavy machine should be powered by two medium-thrust engines, if it is estimated according to the thrust of the engine, it is naturally between 28 tons and 29 tons, but the question is how do you make the size of a heavy aircraft reach such a weight?"

It's a matter of heavy and medium machines, which is a cliché, and it's normal to reach such a weight.

"First of all, the reason why the size of the new J looks similar to that of the heavy aircraft is that the special aerodynamic design requires a large wingspan, and due to the special on-board equipment configuration, the nose has to be designed to be quite slender, but this does not mean that our new J-1 must have the same weight as the medium and heavy aircraft."

If you really want to talk about it carefully, Yang Hui has been thinking about whether the nose design of the new J should be restarted, after all, the current new J has many differences from the F18, and the original design of the F18 cannot be copied, such as the bulky six-barrel rifled cannon.

Of course, this is just a conjecture, and the specific situation will have to wait until a few days after the imperial capital sends over the specific technical requirements of the new annihilation. Yang Hui can consider the problem according to the specific situation.

For Yang Hui's explanation, Northrop's side is not so easy to accept, but it will not be denied either, after all, what Yang Hui said is also reasonable, special aerodynamic requirements may make the fighter look like a heavy aircraft, but what really distinguishes between a medium aircraft and a heavy aircraft is to look at the maximum take-off weight of the fighter.

According to the weight of this 28-39 tons. Obviously, it can't be considered a heavy aircraft, maybe it can be considered a quasi-heavy aircraft, anyway, this fighter is not too prominent in air optimization operations.

In the previous situation, the physique of the multi-purpose heavy aircraft is much worse than the maximum take-off weight of 30 tons, the maximum take-off weight of the famous multi-purpose heavy fighter F15E is as high as 36 tons, and the weight of the Su-27 and 30 series is also hovering between 33-38 tons.

The reason why the early model of the F15 seems to have a maximum take-off weight of only 30 tons is because the early F15 is an air superiority aircraft, which requires a high thrust-to-weight ratio, which naturally limits the take-off weight.

Compare the weight of a heavy air superiority aircraft with a medium multi-role fighter. This is obviously unreasonable, as we all know how multi-role fighters of the same class are heavier than air superiority aircraft.

After talking a lot, his saliva is about to run out, Yang Hui has no intention of continuing to elaborate, and now Yang Hui only has a rough plan, maybe there will be any major changes in the future.

"It doesn't make sense to say so much now, the real design requirements for the new J have not yet come out, and the top priority is to develop various subsystems that can be used on the new J. As long as all aspects of the subsystems are mature, it is not very difficult to develop an aircraft. ”

I think what Yang Hui said is very reasonable. The vice president of Northrop, who had been sitting here for so long, also nodded to show that he understood that the tasks he came to find Yang Hui this time had been completed, or even overfulfilled.

"It makes sense, then I don't have anything to say here, and when the time comes, as long as the technical indicators of the new J are met, you can directly notify me here. I will bring Northrop's engineers to discuss the technical plan, and I will definitely let Xinjian win this project. ”

Sent away Northrop these guys, Yang Hui was not in the mood to continue to sketch the overall design plan of the new Jelder, thinking that Yang Yue mentioned not long ago that the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft was already applying for a finalized test flight, and I thought that the final result would be out in the next few days.

Let's be honest. As a business focus of Southwest Science and Industry in the future: drones, although Yang Hui attaches great importance to it, he has not paid much attention in recent years.

On the one hand, because Yang Yue, as the chief engineer of the UAV project, naturally often talks about this project to Yang Hui at home, at least Yang Hui has a number of UAV projects in his heart.

In addition, there is indeed no big difficulty in this UAV project, and the aerodynamics have Yang Hui's design in the early years: the reduced version of the Hermes 450 aerodynamic shape is definitely quite excellent, and all aspects of the airborne equipment used for reconnaissance and data transmission are not major difficulties.

So much so that when Yang Hui walked to the unmanned research and development team this time, he was still a little at a loss in the face of a large number of new faces, and he didn't expect that the grass platform team that originally started from manufacturing model aircraft has now become so vibrant, and it doesn't look like a team that started by manufacturing model aircraft!

Although he didn't know these new faces, he still knew about his wife's office, and walked into the office with a familiar car and found that Yang Yue was just about to go out.

"It's going to go"

In a hurry, Yang Yue found Yang Hui standing in front of him at this time, but she was a little surprised, about how many times Yang Hui came to her project team, Yang Yue could know by pinching her fingers, and it definitely did not exceed three digits.

"Yo, you busy man also has the leisure to come to me, why do you remember that we have a drone here at this time? Let me tell you that our UAVs have completed the finalization and acceptance, the first batch of orders have been received, and the domestic army has placed the first batch of orders for thirty sets of reconnaissance systems. ”

The so-called 30 sets of reconnaissance system orders actually include a complete artillery unmanned reconnaissance kit, which includes: UAV, UAV launch vehicle, ground operation and signal processing vehicle.

Such a complete set of establishments was directly delegated to the artillery regiments, and the scale of the artillery in the entire country in the eighties was absolutely not small.

For example, the artillery regiment directly under the infantry division is a large part of the artillery force, but the artillery regiment directly under the infantry division does not need an unmanned reconnaissance system, after all, this is a close support artillery fire for the infantry, and the artillery range is short, and the forward reconnaissance of the infantry is naturally not needed.

However, the status of the artillery brigade directly under the military region, or even the more fierce artillery division, is completely different from the artillery regiment directly under the infantry division in front, and these large-scale artillery units are not only relatively independent in combat, but also have a larger caliber and longer firing range, which requires the use of unmanned aerial vehicles, which is a convenient, timely, and large-scale reconnaissance weapon.

Studies have shown that using traditional scouts for forward reconnaissance can only detect 20 percent of targets, while using drones for aerial reconnaissance can detect 70 percent of targets.

In terms of the scale of the artillery units of the current republic, the purchase of 30 sets of systems can be regarded as being able to equip half of the artillery brigades, which is also a good start.

"Really? It seems that our Southwest Science and Industry can add a production line again, and there is a lot to be done in the future to develop UAVs, but this time the army number of UAVs is set? ”

"The army didn't give the number of this thing, but let us name this one ourselves, and I have already reported the name: Artillery Reconnaissance 1."

Yang Hui didn't expect the army to have this hand, but when he thought of the various drones of the army in the previous face, it seems that there is indeed no unified number, they are all some: rainbow, Xianglong, and pterodactyl

What really made Yang Hui cry and laugh this time was the code name given by Yang Yue: Artillery Detective 1, what kind of statement is this, is it a simple and clear attitude? It feels like all kinds of black lines are constant. (To be continued.) )
