Chapter 255: Backfire
Of course, there must be a big bomb B, and with an identity like Yang Yuan, the big bomb B in the design must be crazy.
"The first supersonic, not only must be supersonic, but also very supersonic, and the fastest speed must be at least Mach two or more, and of course it must reach this speed with a bomb."
Yang Feng said with a wave of his fist.
Henkel and Lin Guodong, the head of the Canberra project, looked at him like a fool, especially the former, at this time, looking at Yang Feng's movements, it was as if he had returned to the forties, as if he had returned to their enthusiastic era, facing their excited Führer.
"The second flight must be long, and the combat radius must reach at least 3,000 kilometers or more, so it can take off from our territory and drop bombs directly on any city in Southeast Asia.
Yang Yuan's requirements are actually not high, he just wants a Kunpeng version of the backfire, although this bomber has been outdated after sixty years, but in this era, it is enough for him to maintain the advantage of twenty years, now start research and development, and strive to put it into production before sixty years, so that it is enough to use until the early eighties, as for how to develop in the future, he can't think so far now.
"Your Excellency, this, this indicator is too advanced."
Lin Guodong said tremblingly.
Being ahead of the curve was a euphemism, in fact he wanted to say that the indicator was too crazy and unrealistic.
This engineer who graduated from Cornell University seriously suspects that the Führer has not woken up yet, not to mention that there is already no supersonic bomber projects under development in various countries, not to mention that Yang Feng has twice the speed of sound, which even a fighter has not yet reached. Even the fastest Tiger Shark in the design is only pursuing a 1.5 times the speed of sound, which is already the fastest of all the ongoing projects in all countries.
"No, no, it's not ahead of its time at all, as far as I know, the people of the United States have already begun to tender for supersonic bombers. We can't lag behind them, the latest Tu-16 of the Soviets is about to fly test, comrades, time is running out, we can't work hard to finally design and build a bomber that does not have any advantage over others, so it must be two Mach 2, with a bomb load of 20 tons and a combat radius of 3,000 kilometers. ”
Yang Feng said with certainty that the people of the United States have indeed begun to bid for the B58 thieves, and the Soviet version of the H Six. That is, the Tu-16 entered mass production in May 4, and the first test flight was carried out in 52, and the Soviet Union also began the design of the Tu-22 at the same time as the Tu-16 was put into service, of course, the Tu-22 is not a backfire, the Tu-22M is, but the design index of the Tu-22 is also supersonic.
"If you just want speed, you can achieve it with a little effort. The Tamron III engine we developed for the Tiger Shark has already been tested, with a normal thrust of nearly six tons. The afterburner thrust is even close to eight tons, and amplification by the standards of a bomber also allows for greater thrust. With four such engines enough to provide more than forty tons of thrust, with a large-angle swept wing, we can get a bomber with twice the speed of sound, but here's the problem. We won't be able to get the combat radius and bomb load you want, and as a bomber, it will be very maneuverable. ”
Henkel said.
Yang Feng's Tamron III engine is actually the Evan 300, this guy directly crossed the Evan 200 level, and this engine is equipped for the Tiger Shark. The design allows the fighter to reach 1.5 times the speed of sound, and the performance is indeed dazzling in this era, but it is not unique, because at the same time, a large number of fighter projects in the 1.5 times the speed of sound class have also begun.
The British's bizarre up and down side-by-side twin-engine fighter lightning, the F100 super saber of the United States, the F101 magician, the F102 triangular sword, the F104 battle star, the super saber is close to completion, the titanium alloy technology is not mature enough, and the United States spent 80% of the country's titanium alloy in order to build this fighter. The fastest speed of the Magician is close to the M2, and the Britannica's lightning has become the pride of the British Air Force because of the use of the Evan 300 engine in the later period, not only easily surpassing the M2, but even short-term supersonic cruise and intercepting the U2 without pressure.
In addition to the United States and Britain, Sweden also proposed to Saab the development of a Mach 4-class fighter, that is, the future Saab 35 Dragon fighter, the same project Gauls also have, the later Mirage 1. As for the fact that the Soviets were carrying out the Yak-25 project at the same time, according to the information obtained by Yang Feng, because of the pressure caused by his Tiger Shark, both the Mikoyan Design Bureau and Sukhoi each had an ambitious M2 program, the development of the former was likely to result in the MiG-21, and the development of the latter could be Su-7.
So this is an era of a hundred schools of thought, and the ambition and achievements of Yang are amazing, but it is just amazing, because everyone is about the same!
"No, no, we don't use turbojet engines, but the latest turbofans, and our joint venture with Rolls-Royce has produced a turbofan engine with a maximum thrust of eight tons, although it is civilian, but the core engine is the same.
According to the contract, both of us can develop a military version based on this engine, but we are not allowed to develop the same civilian version, so we can use this engine to develop a large military turbofan engine that suits us separately, and then use it to build our new bomber.
What I would like is that this bomber will have only two engines, so that a single thrust will have at least more than twenty-two tons.
In addition, in order to solve the low-altitude performance of this bomber, I also need to apply a new technology to it, a new wing technology, I call it a variable sweep wing, simply put, the wing angle is adjustable, when used for high-altitude supersonic flight, the wing will be swept back to the maximum, and when flying at low altitude to avoid radar penetration, the wing will be deployed through the hydraulic system to reduce the sweep angle.
Well, that's enough, right? ”
Yang Feng said.
Enough, definitely enough.
Henkel and Lin Guodong nodded fiercely at the same time.
"No, that's not enough!"
Yang Feng said with a strong pretending atmosphere.
"You still lack a completely new theory of aircraft design, a theory born specifically for supersonic aircraft, I call it transonic area rate and supersonic area rate!"
He placed a stack of printed papers on the table in front of him.
Well, the transonic area rate and the supersonic area rate were put forward by the people of the United States in 52 and 53 respectively, and it was these two sets of theories that allowed the aviation industry to truly enter the supersonic era.
"That, Your Excellency, you are outdated, an engineer of the Tiger Shark team half a year ago, when conducting supersonic aerodynamic research through that supersonic prototype of yours, has already proposed something similar."
Lin Guodong looked at the document in his hand and told Yang Yuan Yuan very embarrassed.
"Huh?!"
Indeed, Yang Yuanfeng came up with the theory of area ratio a little later, through his two supersonic verification aircraft, or the flight data collection of the sixth master, plus the Tiger Shark fighter jet's blowing experiment in the newly built supersonic wind tunnel, an engineer of the Kunpeng company has already made this set of things. It's just that Xu Shunshou, who is in charge of the project, didn't think that this kind of thing could be important enough to alarm the head of state, so he didn't specifically report to him for this, but many people in Kunpeng Company knew about it.
"Very well, I am very happy with your growth, and it is my reward to give that engineer a new El Doradorado!"
Yang Feng said to the attendant beside him with emotion, and the latter quickly took a small notebook and wrote it down.
The new generation of bombers of the Ming Air Force has been officially established, although theoretically it still needs to pass the Congress, but everyone knows that it is just a formality, Yang Yuan's first thing, those congressmen are 100% raising their hands, and it is useless not to raise their hands.
Of course, even if the parliament does not agree, Yang will not do such a thing as forcibly dissolving the parliament, the Ming Dynasty is a constitutional monarchy and a democratic country with a legal system, how can this kind of thing happen.
And the Ming Dynasty still has an emperor, but the emperor is the tablet of Chongzhen Ye, so it is still according to the Chongzhen era, Yang is only the elected head of state, but the Ming Dynasty adopts a political system similar to the Japanese state, the head of state has no term limit, and the leader of the ruling party is the head of state.
However, the ruling party is the Ming Empire Renaissance Party, whose members account for 90 percent of the seats in the National Assembly, and the president of the Baath Party is Yang Feng, and the Baath Party constitution also stipulates that the president has no term limit.
Therefore, his head of the Ming Empire has no term limit.
As for the fact that Congress does not grant funds......
In order to force the head of state to let go of the black hand he pinched in the real estate industry, the Ming Congress rarely vetoed Yang Feng's proposal to increase the number of public housing construction by a narrow margin in the 49 budget.
Just when those parliamentarians were trembling and waiting for the Führer to get angry, the Führer did not say anything at all, and when everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and was glad that they could build a house happily in the future, Führer Yang made a move that made them collapse, and Führer Yang announced that he would pay for his own money to continue to build public housing.
Immediately after that, the Ming Empire's radio, television, newspapers, in short, all propaganda channels began to bombard those parliamentarians who opposed this proposal, those young people who had just graduated and were waiting for the public housing to marry their wives, and immediately aimed their hateful eyes at these guys, although no one would rush into the parliament with a gun and shoot them, but there were many emotional people waiting outside with rotten eggs.
As a result, the 50 budget was once again unanimously approved. (To be continued.) )
