Chapter 341: This is the result of Donghua's independent intellectual property rights!
The 066 base, whose full name is the Agatu Aerospace Base in Donghua Paradise Prefecture, is an independent R&D and production base of the first generation of carrier rockets, cruise missiles, anti-ship missiles, air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground missiles, surface-to-air missiles, and submarine-launched missiles in the Donghua Empire. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
This base, which was established two years ago by Cheng Gong himself, has the most advanced scientific research equipment, machinery and equipment in the Donghua Empire, and a large number of outstanding technical personnel.
Dr. Braun was interested in the Sparrow air-to-air combat missiles mounted on F-4 fighters at Paradise Island Air Force Base, when he was secretly training F-4 jet supersonic fighter jets.
After the public appearance of the Seventh Fleet of the Royal Donghua Navy, the shipborne missiles of the Shield-class cruiser, the Warrior-class destroyer, and the Guardian-class frigate further opened up new ideas for Dr. Braun's rocket research.
At present, this base is one of the core military industrial bases under the priority of the Royal Academy of Sciences and the Ministry of National Defense of the Donghua Empire. In terms of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, there are more favorable policies than other military production units.
In 1936, Dr. Braun had been researching the A-series rockets at the Penemünde Rocket Research Center in Germany, and after being dug up to Paradise Island by Cheng Gong, Dr. Braun had a new understanding of various rocket engines such as liquid rocket engines, solid rocket engines, and impact rocket engines.
In particular, the concept of the guidance system made Dr. Braun understand for the first time that a rocket is not uncontrollable after launch.
A year ago, under the guidance of Cheng Gong, Dr. Braun successfully developed a new polysulfide rubber solid-fuel rocket engine and a high-performance reverse single-pulse seeker based on the Sparrow II air-to-air missile manufactured at the base, thus realizing the mass production of the AIM-7M "Sparrow" air-to-air missile.
With the AIM-7M "Sparrow" air-to-air combat missile, the corresponding high-performance "Sea Sparrow" RIM-7M surface-to-air air defense missile will naturally be industrialized and mass-produced.
For such a missile research and production base with a solid technical foundation, Cheng Gong has always been very concerned. This time, after rewarding Dr. Braun with a shot of X-1 gene enhancer, Cheng Gong officially issued an order to Dr. Braun to start the development of anti-ship missiles.
Dr. Braun, who had a big hole in his brain after strengthening his brain cells, quickly designed a rocket-specific turbojet engine with excellent performance and low cost, and developed the first AGM-84 "Whaling Fork" anti-ship missile that Cheng Gong confessed to two months ahead of schedule.
After Braun applied to Cheng Gong for the test-firing of this "Whaling Fork" anti-ship missile, which was manufactured by the Donghua Empire, Cheng Gong immediately rushed to Agatu Island to personally participate in the test launch of this anti-ship missile.
On this day, in the large constant temperature equipment workshop of the 066 base, Cheng Gong changed into work clothes, accompanied by the chief designer Dr. Braun and the person in charge of the 066 base, and came to a missile placed flat on the base of the flatbed trailer missile.
The appearance of this missile looks similar to that of the AGM-84, but Cheng Gong can see at a glance that the length has increased.
"Your Majesty, this is the C802 whaling fork we made ourselves!" Dr. Braun's slightly haggard thin face looked particularly energetic at this time, and he said happily: "Under the inspiration of Your Majesty, I have designed a full-type turbojet engine with a maximum horizontal speed of Mach 1.2, and the ship-to-ship range has increased by thirty kilometers compared to the 152 kilometers of the purchased Whaling Fork missiles, reaching 182 kilometers!"
Although the body of this C802 is longer than the imported whaling fork, due to the extra turbojet engine air intake in the belly, the total weight of our C802 whaling fork is lighter than that of the imported whaling fork, and the total weight is only 635 kg! ”
As Donghua Empire is far ahead of other countries in the application research of aviation materials, the industrial mass production of the third generation of aluminum-lithium alloy has been widely used in the aviation industry of Donghua Empire. In particular, the application technology of rocket and missile shells, power compartments and other components is becoming more and more mature.
The total weight of the prototype of the AGM-84 whaling fork is about 691 kilograms, while the anti-ship missile of the model C802 independently developed and produced by Donghua Empire is only 635 kilograms, and the level flight speed has also increased from Mach 0.85 to Mach 1.2.
"The level flight speed has reached Mach 1.2, which is supersonic speed! This is a very remarkable breakthrough! This will be the first supersonic anti-ship missile independently developed by our Great Donghua Empire! ”
Cheng Gong praised very excitedly: "Dr. Braun, in view of your outstanding achievements in the development of the first generation of cruise missiles in the Empire, I have officially named you a first-class baron of the Empire today!" I hope that all the workers of the 066 base will fully carry forward the spirit of self-esteem, self-improvement, self-reliance, and independent struggle and hard work, and strive to make the insulation material light-duty shore ship type and airborne air-ship type C802 as soon as possible! ”
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we will resolutely complete the task!" Dr. Braun and the main person in charge of Base 066 on the scene shouted loudly in unison.
With the technical foundation for the development of AIM-7M "Sparrow", RIM-7M "Sea Sparrow" and C802 "Whaling Fork", Cheng Gong is more confident in developing the first generation of cruise missiles of the Donghua Empire in advance.
Since the GPS navigation and positioning system has not yet been introduced, the guidance system of the C802 whaling fork adopts the active navigation of the angry missile + terminal radar. In terms of guidance accuracy and strike accuracy, although it is still a little short of Cheng Gong's goal, and the ability to resist electromagnetic interference is also weak, this does not prevent this C802 Whaling Fork anti-ship missile from becoming an invincible weapon in naval warfare in this era.
This C802 whaling fork resembles the French "Exocet" anti-ship missile in the future. But its performance is better than that of the French Flying Fish. Whether it is range, speed, anti-electronic jamming performance and hitting accuracy, it is better than the French Exocet. The French Exocet can only penetrate 10mm of ordinary armor plates, but this C802 whaling fork from the Donghua Empire can penetrate thick armor plates with stiffeners.
Air-to-air missiles, anti-aircraft missiles and anti-ship missiles have begun to achieve local mass production, which means that the national defense and military industrial system of the Donghua Empire has been at the forefront of the world, far behind Europe and the United States.
Even if the Chinese mainland has closed the window for immigration to Donghua, even if the Donghua Empire now has a population of just over 15 million Chinese, with the superiority of missiles, Cheng Gong also has full confidence that the Donghua Empire will become the biggest winner in this World War II, which is completely different from history.
……
In a certain area of the Beiling Sea, two Warrior-class missile destroyers flying the flag of the Donghua Empire's Jiulong Xinghuang Shihe military were cleaving the waves on the blue sea.
In the sky, an E2 Hawkeye early warning plane painted with the Golden Shield military emblem was escorted by four F-4G fighters and circled over this sea area at a normal cruising speed.
In the cabin of the E2 Eagle Eye early warning aircraft, Cheng Gong and Dr. Braun, as well as Einstein and Tesla, who had been specially called, were talking softly and laughing, and their eyes fell on the large color display screen in front of them.
On the side, three representatives of Base 066 were also present, but they all had an uncontrollable nervous look on their faces.
Cheng Gong deliberately brought Einstein and Tesla with him for the test launch of the C802 Whaling Fork anti-ship missile, the purpose of which was obviously to stimulate Einstein and Tesla, and strive to come up with scientific and technological achievements that belonged to the independent intellectual property rights of the Donghua Empire as soon as possible, so as not to make the empire rely on imports.
That's right, Cheng Gong said that all the weapons and equipment that came out of the base were purchased and imported from abroad at a large price. As for where to buy it from, of course, it is a mystery that the whole world cannot solve.
