Chapter 64 Long-range bombers go offline

This is not about to officially roll off the assembly line of long-range bombers, Duan Yunpeng is also very busy now, because after the production line has to be test-flighted, such a large long-range bomber, not only can little devils not be able to build, even a big country like the United States and the Soviet Union, it is not easy to build, not to mention that it still uses a turboprop engine, this is the only one in the world.

The leaders of the Eighth Route Army, when they knew the news of the long-range bombers going off the assembly line, were so excited that they didn't sleep all night.

With long-range bombers, it means that in the future, they can go deep behind enemy lines to bomb and destroy various facilities of the devils, and it is even possible to bomb the devil's homeland in the future, which will play a very strong deterrent role in the little devils.

Of course, the number of such long-range bombers must be large enough, and if there are only a few, they will not be able to form a large-scale bombing effect.

But the cost of this long-range bomber is much higher than that of the Fury fighter, so how much it can be equipped in the future depends on the situation.

It's just that Duan Yunpeng alone knows that there are materials contributed by the system, so there is no problem at all in manufacturing dozens of planes.

When the time comes, dozens of long-range bombers, if they are dispatched together, I am afraid that the little devil will cry.

Because a long-range bomber can carry eight tons of bombs, and dozens of bombs are hundreds of tons of bombs, and this is the bombing of the devil's homeland, the strike effect must be very good.

The Chinese Air Force also took a fancy to the Kunpeng No. 1 long-range bomber, and this time they also had to send people to attend the off-line ceremony, but it was not easy to get the design drawings of this bomber.

And even if Duan Yunpeng gave them the design drawings, he couldn't make them.

Because this long-range bomber uses a turboprop engine, such an advanced engine, not to mention the aircraft factory of the Chinese Air Force, even the United States and the Soviet Union may not be able to build it.

Of course, if it is sold directly, there will be no problem at all, Duan Yunpeng also thinks so, and the leaders of the Eighth Route Army must also think so.

Because selling a long-range bomber, even if you only earn 10,000 oceans, it is very considerable, and selling 100 is 1 million oceans.

And such a good long-range bomber, if it only earns 10,000 oceans, it is too little, even if it earns 100,000 oceans, it is estimated that the Chinese Air Force is willing to buy it.

You must know that an ocean is almost a dollar, and the B17 bomber costs more than 300,000 US dollars a piece, and this Kunpeng long-range bomber is much stronger than the B17, and it is very cheap to sell for 500,000 US dollars.

So a bomber worth half a million dollars earns a hundred thousand dollars, which is not much.

In this way, you only need to sell 100 long-range bombers to earn 10 million oceans, and then all kinds of expenses of the Eighth Route Army will be settled.

Lin Dan is naturally coming this time, she is now Duan Yunpeng's person, and she can't wait to stay in the arsenal all the time, but she also has her difficulties, and it is impossible to join the Eighth Route Army.

Now Lin Fan is already a public enemy in the hearts of the female cadets of the air team, especially Zhang Xia and several other female flight cadets who have a crush on Duan Yunpeng, so they really don't like Lin Dan very much.

Duan Yunpeng is still thinking about it, if the allies also come to buy planes, then the arsenal will have to make a profit, and the scale will at least be expanded several times.

After all, in World War II, the consumption of weapons and equipment was too great, and he knew very well that the United States and the Soviet Union had built more than 300,000 aircraft respectively during World War II.

Plus the British, German, little devils, these great powers made combat aircraft, the total number of which is more than a million.

Therefore, it is entirely possible for the Eighth Route Army to sell tens of thousands of combat aircraft, or even more.

After all, when the time comes, in Southeast Asia, as well as Australia, will fight little devils, and it will definitely take a lot of combat aircraft.

Not only that, but on the battlefield in Europe, there is also a need for many advanced combat aircraft, and it is estimated that now both the Soviets and the Americans will be eyeing the arsenal of the Eighth Route Army.

When the time comes, how much money will it have to make by selling it 10,000 planes? This is all astronomical, and a combat aircraft, on average, is a billion dollars.

This system can provide a steady stream of materials and manufacturing equipment, so it is no problem to build as much as you want.

Only airplanes are the most convenient to sell, because they can fly away directly, even across the ocean.

Like a tank cannon or something, it's too bulky and inconvenient to transport out.

Otherwise, how could there be a hump route, where hundreds of American transport planes fell into the ravines.

Now Duan Yunpeng is already starting to plan, the Kunpeng No. 1 long-range bomber is definitely the equipment that the Allies need very much, and the Fury fighter is also surpassing the current main fighters of the United States and the Soviet Union.

They will definitely want to buy it too.

In one of the largest workshops of the arsenal, a huge bomber has been fully assembled, and it is now presented to people.

There are really a lot of guests who came to participate in the offline ceremony today, Duan Yunpeng and Li Yunlong together, welcoming the arrival of the guest leaders.

Lin Dan came with more than a dozen people from the Air Force, and when she saw Duan Yunpeng, a strange brilliance flashed in her eyes, but she immediately put it away again.

Everyone was very happy, all the people who entered the workshop, as soon as they saw the Kunpeng long-range bomber, they couldn't take their eyes off, this is the long-range bomber built by the Eighth Route Army? It was so big, and all the people who came had never seen such a big bomber, including those ace pilots of the Air Force.

The wingspan is close to 30 meters, which is equivalent to the width of three fighters in parallel!

The most attractive thing is this long-range bomber, the four turboprop engines under the wings, they are all six blades, it looks different, the ace pilots of the Air Force are knowledgeable, they have seen a lot of bombers, none of them are so domineering.

Take the U.S. military's B17 Flying Fortress bomber as an example, it is also a four-engine long-range bomber, but its maximum take-off weight is less than 20 tons, which is only two-thirds of the Kunpeng.

Although its wingspan is slightly longer than that of the Kunpeng, the fuselage is a few meters shorter.

In terms of engine power, the Flying Fortress is much worse, so its maximum flight speed is only 420 kilometers per hour, and the Kunpeng 1 bomber is as high as 650 kilometers per hour.

This is not only due to the power gap, but also the design gap in the aerodynamic shape.

The Flying Fortress uses a straight trapezoidal wing with a large wing thickness and high flight resistance, while the Kunpeng 1 uses a swept wing with less flight resistance, so it is much faster.

As the saying goes, the layman looks at the liveliness, and the insiders look at the doorway, and the ace pilots of the Air Force can see it at once.
