The founder of the British jet engine was Frank Whittle.

So Britain's first jet fighter was Frank Whittle. The Gloucester Meteor was developed, followed by the second jet fighter developed by de Havilland, the Vampire Fighter.

Later historical records are recorded in the history of May 15, 1940, the first British jet aircraft, the Gloucester G.40 (also known as Gloucester "Whitter"), the first flight of the aircraft, which is equipped with a centrifugal turbojet engine manufactured by Wheatherd, that is to say, the compressor blades are similar to the shape of the water pump blades, using centrifugal principles to compress air and then supply it to the combustion chamber, instead of consisting of multi-stage series fans like axial turbojet engines......

On September 20, 1943, the first flight of the Vampire fighter was successful, and then on December 3, 1945, Eric Brown piloted the Sea Vampire modified carrier-based jet to land and take off on the Royal Navy aircraft carrier Antietam; This makes the Vampire the world's first jet fighter capable of taking off and landing on an aircraft carrier.

But now, in November 1943, Britain has not succeeded in building a jet fighter and jet bomber that Chen Yanlong exchanged for with his mobile phone.

To this end, Churchill is vigorously supporting the development of the Gloucester Meteor jet fighter and the Vampire jet fighter of De Havilland Jr.

At the time when Chen Yanlong decided to equip long-range strategic bombers to bomb the Oak Ridge base, the site of the US atomic bomb; Frank Whittle and De Havilland Jr. met in London.

Inside the branch office of Little de Havilland, the two of them had a meeting.

"I heard that you want to replace the Halford H.1 centrifugal turbojet engine, which is the most powerful one you are currently using, with the Halford H.1A engine! ”

As soon as they met, Frank Whittle asked with a smile.

"Yes! Our "Leprechaun" small turbojet engine needs a major modification, because our jet engine thrust is too high, and there is no way to get faster than the Me262 jet that we captured from the Germans! ”

"And I heard Prime Minister Churchill say that the Americans have also successfully developed a new jet fighter, which seems to be called the F-80 "Meteor" jet, and it is in mass production, and it seems that it will be put into the battlefield to fight with the German jet fighters and jet bombers! ”

"That's why Prime Minister Churchill and His Majesty Abroad are in such a hurry for our two families to join forces and produce a jet fighter that can be put into actual combat by the end of 1943!"

Little de Havilland, who was in a black suit, nodded solemnly in response.

"Hmmm! I'm also working on improving my company's Gloucester Meteor jet fighter in the hope of defeating the German Me262 jet, but I still have a lot of shortcomings that need to be improved! ”

"That's why I'm just asking you to come here today to discuss it, because we have less than two months left, and I'm a little worried! If it takes a little longer, I will definitely not worry about the quality of the jet fighters we build, and then we will definitely be able to defeat the German Me262 jets! ”

Frank Whittle was a little worried.

"Hmmm! Oh, yes! It's a matter of time for both of us, but now that we have the support of the King and the Prime Minister, and a lot of resources and funding, I am sure we will be able to meet the deadline given by Prime Minister Churchill! ”

Little de Havilland said confidently.

"I'm relieved to see you so confident, now can I go and see the vampire jet fighter you made?"

Hearing this, Frank Whittle also regained his confidence and said with a bright smile.

"Of course, I'm going to take you to see it now, and you're going to give us the most honest comments so that we can make the Vampire Jet Fighter even better!"

De Havilland Jr. nodded in agreement and smiled.

"That's certain, because we are now two families joining forces to serve the country together!"

Frank Whittle said with a big smile.

The two of them then went to the factory where the Vampire Jet fighter was parked and went on a tour.
