Chapter 139: Super Wooden Plane

Budyonny's bridle engine theory only caused laughter, and I don't know how effective Lin Jun's hand-pulled horse reins were when he used the fighter jet's joystick? But now he had no need to worry about it for the time beingβ€”like more than a third of the senior officers, he was stuffed into the carriage by his own attachΓ© after the banquet. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Getting up just after nine o'clock in the morning, Vuginskaya told him that Andlupuf had just called and asked him when he would leave.

"Hey, is it Andlupf?"

"Not awake yet? Hurry up, when will you go to Factory 301? ”

"I'll leave in half an hour, by the way, I'll bring my flight suit with me."

"Arkhipov has already prepared your flight suit."

"Okay, we'll see you later."

Hung up, "Looks like this guy wants to try a new fighter too." Lin Jun thought.

It was half an hour, but 10 minutes later Andlupuf arrived. Now he, the deputy commander, has a different status, he no longer has to drive by himself, and he is assigned a driver, a 30-year-old sergeant named Majialev.

"Have you seen the new planes from Factory 301?" Lin Jun asked in the car.

"I don't have time, I'm not familiar with my own acre and three points of land now, but I've heard about some new planes. After designing the initial prototype, the Ministry of the Air Force issued a new technical requirement to the 301 factory, and also made the designer comrades jump for a while. ”

"Oh, Voroshinov didn't mention it to me."

"He doesn't know aviation, so it's probably Alxnis who is busy with this."

Lin Jun was now in Andlupf's car, and when he heard his words, he pointed to Sergeant Matyalev, who was driving.

"It's okay, Matyalev was arranged by Arkhipov, it's reliable." Andlupuf knew what Lin Jun meant, and now the tone of the conversation between the two was not very respectful of his immediate superiors.

In fact, Lin Jun is also doing this too much, and Andlupf will not let an uneasy person be his driver. And at this time, the sergeant comrade did not react at all and drove his car as usual.

The driver must have the driver's consciousness and know what to pay attention to and what not to hear.

、、、、、、、

Factory 301 is no longer what it was when I came last year, it has undergone a large-scale expansion, in addition to the original furniture factory building, a number of new modern factories have been built, and a large vacant land on the side has also been leveled and built into a fighter airfield.

Lavochkin knew that Comrade Andrei, a member of the Military Council, and the deputy commander of the Moscow Special Military District were going to inspect the factory, and he was waiting at the factory with several designers.

After the routine politeness, Lin Jun went straight to the point: "We are here to test the new fighter today, and your application report is in my hands." ”

This time, Lin Jun is holding "heavy power", and it is rare to be arrogant, of course, anyone can hear that he is joking.

"Comrade Military Commissar, we are ready to accept acceptance, please come with me."

Three brand-new fighter jets were parked in the hangar, flanked by a number of people in overalls. Andlupuf was intrigued by the new fighter as soon as he entered the hangar.

"Comrades, this is the latest Lager-3 fighter." Lavochkin said proudly.

Andrupf couldn't wait to check the plane, but Lin Jun was not so anxious: "Lag-3?" What about your rag-1? ”

You must know that the model number in his test report says that it is the Lag-1 type, why is it the Lag-3 all of a sudden?

"Comrade Andrey, the Lager-1 is in the hangar next door, this is an improved model in accordance with the new design requirements of the Air Department, and the new capabilities have been greatly improved compared with the original model, so I will take you and Comrade Andlupuv here to visit first."

Lavochkin is a bit self-assertive, but Lin Jun likes it, because he knows that Lag 3 is the master of the sky.

"It's okay, you can talk about the new design indicators first, I don't know much yet."

"Three months ago, the Air Department asked us to increase the range of the new fighter from 800 km to at least 1,000 km, and for this we had to revise the original design, and the improved prototypes are the three current Lager-3s."

"Two months? Your speed can create world discipline! ”

Lin Jun had to sigh at the efficiency of designers and engineering technicians, which is simply a miracle!

This is thanks to Gorbunov (also translated as "Gorbunov", who is the Iron Triangle of the Lavochkin Design Bureau with Lavochkin and Goodkov. Comrade, he designed an auxiliary body from the very beginning, in order to prevent the current situation from happening. Last year you talked to us about the range of fighter jets, which drew our attention to the importance of the combat radius, so the internal backup design required that the combat radius must be more than 400 kilometers without the use of auxiliary fuel tanks. ”

"It's nice to have this awareness, but will it affect the performance of the fighter?"

"It was a big problem at the beginning, we didn't have the right engine. After the M-105 engine, which was originally allocated to the Lager 1, was installed on the new fuselage, there was a problem of insufficient power of the aircraft, and we did not have a more powerful liquid-cooled engine, so we had to try to reduce the weight of the aircraft to improve performance, and even thought of reducing the weight of the aircraft by reducing the armament on the aircraft. ”

Lin Jun frowned when he heard this, you must know that such a reverse passive improvement is not a good thing.

Probably seeing Lin Jun's expression, Lavochkin hurriedly said: "Fortunately, Comrade Klimov provided us with the latest M-10**F engine a month ago, the power has increased by almost 200 horsepower compared with the original model, and all the problems have been solved at once." ”

Vladimir-Yakforevich-Klimov-Lin Jun knew him, a famous Soviet aircraft engine designer, and the products designed by him were used in the early models of the Lager fighter and the Yak fighter. I just didn't expect the speed to be so fast, and under my own proposal, the speed of the development of the new engine was advanced by more than a year and a half.

"The performance of the new engine is superior to that of the original model, but Comrade Klimov offered it to us at a certain risk, because the M-10**F is still at the testing stage."

"Sometimes the risk needs to be tried, and giving you another three months will ensure the stability of the engine and the overall performance of the aircraft?"

"Of course, we can, what we're worried about now is that we don't have enough time."

"In just three months, we want a fighter with stable performance, all risk factors will be eliminated, and it will be ready for mass production by May this year at the latest."

Lin Jun is going crazy thinking about the new fighter, but he doesn't dare to accept anything that is still unstable.

"Lag 1 will be left behind, specializing in Lag 3, the short-legged guy pilot doesn't like it."

Walking to the edge of the Lag 3 at the front, Andlupuf was banging on the fuselage.

"Comrade Lavochkin, your plane is made of wood?"

"Yes, Comrade Deputy Commander. The fuselage skin is made of Siberian birch plywood, and the wings are wooden two-section structure. All movable wings are covered with cloth skin with a metal frame. But you don't have to worry about the strength of the fuselage, the glued laminate material we use is very good, and the fuel tanks are self-sealing tanks filled with inert gas. Front-line aviation airfields can directly fill the fuel tanks with carbon dioxide, and if there is no one, it is not a big problem. ”

Although this carbon dioxide is not a real inert gas, where to find argon at the front-line airfield? It's good with carbon dioxide.

At first glance, Andlupuf was still a little uneasy, "I will take you to visit our fuselage manufacturing workshop later, this glued laminate can not be lit even if it is burned with a baking gun, we have carried out flame retardant treatment on the wood, and the glue is also a flame retardant product." ”

Lin Jun was not as worried as his brother, he knew that it was also very difficult for this "wooden" plane to be hit by a small-caliber armor-piercing incendiary bomb, and the only thing he had to worry about was whether the wooden plank would shatter after being hit.

"We do not have enough suitable carbide, it seems that we want to rush the comrades of the Urals." Lin Jun thought, "Several new fighters are all wooden aircraft, and it's okay to say on land, do you want the carrier-based aircraft of the Red Navy to also use wood?" ”

"The Urals are not yet able to supply aluminum alloys for aviation?" Asked this, Lin Jun was a little angry in his heart, he had already told the local department about this problem when he went to the Urals last time, and the industrial engineers of the Soviet Union were famous all over the world, so could they not solve this aluminum alloy problem?!

"It's not that it can't be provided, but the output is insufficient, and the demand for aluminum alloys in other departments is also very large, so there is not much to distribute to us."

There is no way, the industrial production capacity is just there, and it is useless to rush.

"How's the firepower?"

"As a result of solving the engine problem, we were equipped with heavy firepower: a 20-mm Π¨Π’ΠšΠ cannon with 200 rounds of ammunition, two 16-mm Π£Π‘ aviation machine guns of the latest 12.7 mm type from the Special Design Bureau, each with 400 rounds of ammunition. The ballistics of the machine gun and the machine gun basically coincided. ”

"Or the Π¨Π’ΠšΠ cannon? Last time you said that you were ready to install a 23-mm gun, and the 16th Special Design Bureau did not have a suitable product? ”

The 16th Special Design Bureau is the authoritative body for the design of aviation guns in the Soviet Union, and it has already received an order to design a 23mm cannon last year, so Lin Jun has this question.

"They provided us with several experimental МП-6 23-mm guns, which were twice as powerful as 20-mm shells, but their magazine feeding system was not very reliable, so we used proven products for the insurance period. But there is still room for improvement in the design. ”

"Looks like I'm going to warn Taubina that it's not good if it goes on like this."

Taubina was one of the main designers of the 16th Special Design Bureau, which historically went to prison for the unsuccessful design of the МП-6 aircraft gun.
