Episode 616 Big Plane
Large aircraft generally refer to transport aircraft with a total take-off weight of more than 100 tons, including military large transport aircraft and civil large transport aircraft, as well as military or civil passenger aircraft with a range of more than 3,000 kilometers.
In order to successfully develop an aircraft, have a relatively complete model series, and develop best-selling civil aircraft models, we must be prepared for long-term development. So far, Boeing and Airbus dominate the field of civil airliners.
Huaxia's plan for large aircraft is as tortuous as that of an aircraft carrier. In August 1970, China's first large aircraft project "Yun-10" was officially launched, and on September 26, 1980, it made its first flight, making Huaxia the fourth country to build its own 100-ton aircraft after the United States, Slavia and the European Union.
However, due to various reasons, in the mid-80s, the "Yun Shi" project, which cost 537.7 million yuan, was forced to be discontinued. China's large aircraft manufacturing industry, which started only two years later than Europe's Airbus, has since moved forward.
Subsequently, Zhengaxe formulated a 'three-step plan' for the civil aircraft industry, but unfortunately the 'three-step' did not go on because Airbus terminated the joint research and development project with Huaxia. In such a situation, Huaxia carry forward the spirit of hardship and hard work, never give up, and carry out the research and development of large aircraft alone, in November 03, the state set up a major special demonstration group, and the large aircraft is one of them.
So far, Huaxia's large aircraft is still in research and development, which shows the difficulty of making a large aircraft, of course, some people may ask, large aircraft is so difficult to do, why should it be insisted on?
Because the large aircraft is a concentrated embodiment of a country's industry, scientific and technological level and comprehensive strength, it is a pearl of modern manufacturing industry and a high degree of integration of modern high-tech technology.
Success in the field of large aircraft can drive group breakthroughs in key technologies in the fields of new materials, modern manufacturing, advanced power, electronic information, automatic control, and computers; It can promote the development of many high-tech industries; It will also drive major progress in many basic disciplines such as fluid mechanics and solid mechanics, and will comprehensively and greatly improve the level of science and technology in China. promote the development of the aviation industry chain; Better meet the needs of people's travel.
What's more, large passenger planes are to some extent more profitable than arms trading, just look at the belly fat eaten by Boeing and Airbus after dominating civil aviation, the project makes money, and the kingdom itself can do it, Zhang Yifeng will certainly not let go of this money-making field.
Of course, the large aircraft project is still the need of the kingdom's national defense and security, the United States is equipped with a large number of strategic transport aircraft, claiming to be able to transport troops to all parts of the world, the Kingdom of PNG does not seek to achieve the air transport capacity of the United States, but at least it must have this ability, in order to cope with the complex international situation in the future.
The large aircraft produced by the aircraft factory is the C-1 large strategic transport aircraft named "Overlord", and the name of C shows Zhang Yifeng's ambition, the Airbus civil aircraft is "A", and the Boeing is "B".
C-1 Overlord is a strategic transport aircraft, larger than the average civil airliner, the size and load are far more than the largest C-5 galaxy in the United States, even the An-225 made by the Slavic Red Empire is beyond reach, known as the world's largest transport aircraft.
The An-225 is a legend created by the Slavic Red Empire, with a fuselage length of 84 meters and a wingspan of 88.4 meters, making it the world's largest aircraft with a deadliness, the longest fuselage and the widest wingspan.
Equipped with six turbofan engines with high bypass ratio, empty weight of 175 tons, take-off weight of 640 tons, load of 250 tons, cabin top load of 200 tons, maximum fuel range of 15,400 kilometers, practical ceiling of 10,000 kilometers, requires six crew members to operate, huge cabin volume converted as a passenger aircraft, preliminary estimates can accommodate passengers at the same time, is Airbus upcoming 'air flagship' A380 4 times.
However, because of the perverted load capacity of the An-225, the model is too large, the requirements for the airport are high, and the transportation use is limited, and the An-225 was produced by the Slavic Red Empire in the early days to transport the space shuttle, and then the Red Empire collapsed, and the An-225 naturally had no use, coupled with the high cost, only one was produced and was forced to stop production.
With the support of black technology, super engine technology, and alloy materials in the wasteland world, the C-1 Overlord has a load capacity that surpasses the An-225 with only three engines, with an empty weight of 160 tons, a take-off weight of 750 tons, and a load weight of 500 tons.
Zhang Yifeng is not a military fan and doesn't know much about transport aircraft, but when he heard the data of the C-1 Overlord for the first time, he was also shocked, this thing is simply a product that is ahead of the times.
After the C-1 Overlord was developed, it will borrow the temporary airfield of the Sepik Provincial Air Force to test the stability of the aircraft more than 20,000 times, originally according to the rigorous style of the robot, the C-1 Overlord does not need to be tested, as long as a simple test flight can be served, but the most important thing for a large aircraft is safety, and in the future, the plane is sitting on thousands of Kingdom soldiers, once an accident occurs, the consequences are quite serious, for such considerations, the super aircraft has made an exception for so many tests.
After a general understanding of the performance of the C-1 Overlord and the follow-up test work, Zhang Yifeng did not go to the aircraft factory, but discussed with Bridget in the Rainbow Palace to start the kingdom's large-scale civil science and technology project, and split the current super aircraft into two companies, one focusing on civilian science and technology, and the other developing military aircraft.
Large civil airliners are very profitable, so Zhang Yifeng and Bridget are not ready to hide it, after leaving the palace, Bridget held a press conference in the Super Energy Group Building, and announced the news to the outside world, only local media reporters and journalists from the two major TV stations attended the press conference. But soon, the whole world knew that the Kingdom of PNG had made another big deal on the last day of the Chinese New Year holiday.
At first, many people questioned it, but when the super civil aircraft company released the majestic photos of the C-1 Overlord soaring into the blue sky, these people shut up.
Zhang Yifeng didn't pay too much attention to the development of the incident, he believed that Bridget would handle it properly, and our Majesty the King would sneakily enter the Yan Palace, Jiang Qingyan hugged Xiao Qingqing to breastfeed, the little guy held the bottle and drank violently, and when he saw Zhang Yifeng tiptoeing behind Jiang Qingyan, he was stunned.
