Chapter 493: Seen......
Over the sea of whales (Sea of Japan).
"Buzzing ......" Two planes painted with the emblem of the rising sun pierced through the clouds and skimmed over the northeast of the Chinese fleet with a light turn.
This is the latest "Type 90 Ship Battle" in service with two Japanese naval air forces, but its appearance is completely different from the model of the same name in the original time and space. The original plane's model is a stubby, ugly biplane, most of the fuselage is made of wood and canvas, and it looks like a sling. However, the two Type 90 warships in front of them are all-metal monoplanes, with streamlined fuselage shapes and exquisite workmanship, which are rich and handsome at first glance.
If a military fan of later generations saw it, he would definitely shout "Zero"! That's right, its appearance is indeed very similar to the Zero fighter of the original time and space. However, its performance is much more than that of the Zero Ox Fork, and the fuselage is also a circle larger than the Zero Style, and it is not wrong to say that it is a modified version of the Zero Font.
Because of the wonderful performance of various aircraft in the First World War, this new weapon of war has attracted strong attention from various countries. After the end of the First World War, the world set off a boom in the development of aviation technology. In the history of the original time and space, because the aviation technology was too new, all countries needed to cross the river by feeling the stones, so the speed of development was relatively slow.
And on this plane, it is different, with China, the leader of the aviation industry, countries can follow behind. Compared with slowly groping in the dark to be original, copycat is much less labor-saving and time-saving. They are all industrial powers, with ready-made products as references, as long as they are not too stupid, they can draw scoops according to the gourd, even if they can't perfectly reproduce the performance of the original, but they can get a lot of inspiration in their thinking, and the speed of research and development is naturally much faster.
For example, "why is this engine arranged like this", "why is the angle of this wing made like this", etc., many of them are not technical problems, they are all problems of thinking, and they are also the accumulation of experience, but if you don't pierce this layer of window paper, you don't know how long it will take. Now that there are ready-made products as a reference, everyone will suddenly realize when they look at it. Oh, I see, why didn't I think of that?
Especially after the signing of the Washington Treaty, the naval construction of various countries was restricted, and the great powers, who were trying to strengthen themselves, devoted more attention to aviation. Warships can't be built casually, but there are no restrictions on airplanes, and we can't renew the navy's ships, so we can renew the air force's planes! With the great powers tilting their resources and manpower toward the aviation field, the golden age of aviation technology in this plane has begun.
The engine is known as the heart of the aircraft and is the most important subsystem, and the research on aero engines has become the top priority of all countries. With sufficient investment of manpower and material resources, and Chinese products as references, the development speed of this plane aviation development is extremely fast. After entering the 30s, the 1000 kilowatt (1341 horsepower) class of aviation has been popularized among the major powers. The three most technologically powerful companies outside China, the United States, Britain and Germany, now have a 1,200 kilowatt (1,609 horsepower) class of aviation engines, and are also developing larger power such as 1,500 kilometers (2011 horsepower) class aviation engines.
Japan is no exception, and during World War I, they acquired a lot of advanced technology from the Entente countries, especially Britain and France, including technology related to aviation, and ransacked Italy's northern industrial region, but they could not get good things. Although their industrial heritage is not as good as that of European and American powers, it is not much worse, so they are not backward in the overall design of the aircraft, but their fatal weakness is the engine.
In the history of the original time and space, Japan's aviation development problems have a lot of problems, first of all, the reliability of the engine, oil leakage, coolant leakage, low life, etc., especially the problem of oil leakage is quite serious, in their own words: "If there is no oil leakage, it is not an engine." "The second is the engine supercharging technology, not to mention the turbocharging with relatively high technical requirements, even the most basic mechanical supercharging can not be done, they got the BMW 803 and other good things from Germany, but they can't imitate it, or barely imitate it and can't use it, and the power in practical application can't reach the design value at all. In addition, Japan's oil refining technology is backward, resulting in the octane number of aviation gasoline is too low, the impurities are too high, and the quality is extremely poor, which seriously affects the engine performance. After the war, the Americans captured many Japanese planes, and as a result, with the addition of American gasoline, the performance of flying out was generally higher than that tested by the Japanese themselves in the technical manual, especially the speed.
The same is true of Japan in this plane, although their technology is stronger and richer than the original time and space, but it is still not good in the area of aviation and development, although it is stronger than the same period of the original time and space, but it is still not worth mentioning compared to the European and American powers. At the time of the popularization of 1000 kilowatt engines in Europe and the United States, Japan's self-produced aero engines are barely even 800 kilowatts, and the power is not up to them, or the reliability is very tragic.
However, the development after that was completely different in the original plane, and the most important thing was that they hugged the thighs right. After the Japanese Socialist Revolution, the newly established People's Republic of Japan joined the People's Revolutionary Federation and firmly hugged China's thighs.
When they encounter something they can't handle, they go to the boss! Therefore, when the flight of the new generation of aircraft is in trouble, they do not deal with it like the original time and space, but run to China for help. "Local tyrant, can we be friends?"
China's export of various high-tech and products has always been divided into three, six, nine and so on, and its own use must be the best, followed by the little brothers, and then friendly countries. Originally, Japan, as a member of the People's Revolutionary Federation, was qualified to import advanced aircraft from China, but this time it did not import complete aircraft, but only wanted to import engine technology. Because they think that their design is also very good, coupled with the problem of self-esteem, they always import the whole machine not very good-looking.
After Japan begged for the door, Mr. Wen did not shout "let go" according to the script, but said that he could export more advanced aviation development technology to Japan. According to the current technical level, the aviation engine that can be introduced by the younger brother of the People's Revolution Lianzhong is a model below the 1500 kilowatt (2011 horsepower) level, which is already ahead of the European and American powers. The HHQ-07 air-cooled engine and the HHY-06 liquid-cooled engine caused by Japan from China are in the 1400 kW class and the latter are in the 1500 kW class.
And China did not hide their secrets, gave them complete design drawings and technical data, and the Japanese ran back to trial production in a hurry after getting the relevant drawings and materials. After a try, they soon found an extremely embarrassing thing, because their industrial level could not find a qualified high-power engine, and they could not build the same air-cooled and liquid-cooled engines. At first, it was not impossible to build it by hand in the laboratory, but when it came to mass production, it was dumbfounded.
Japanese President Kita Ichiki was depressed by these people, and he was not at ease when he bought the engine, so he was afraid that he would make some kind of moth, so he simply asked people to send the drawings of the new aircraft to China and asked the Chinese masters to help check the gates.
The design of one of the carrier-based fighters is similar to the Zero fighter that should appear ten years after the original time and space, but although this aircraft was designed in advance, Japan's usual petty spirit still can't be changed, and the Zero has problems such as "lighter", "redundancy is too small, there is no room for upgrading", "unreasonable firepower allocation" and so on.
The Chinese designers who received the "assistance mission" almost sprayed when they took the drawings and looked at them, and what kind of thing is this Nima, isn't it just a lighter? After spitting it up, they began to make magic changes on the original basis. Of course, considering the face problem of the Japanese side, there was not much change in the appearance, but the wind tunnel experiment was redone and some fine-tuning was made. However, the fuselage space has been enlarged a lot, and the interior has also been drastically changed, strengthening the fuselage structure, increasing the protection of the pilot, the engine and the fuel tank, and the fuel tank has been replaced with a self-enclosed type. The armament was adjusted, the original 7mm machine gun was replaced with a 12mm machine gun, and the original 20mm "urinal cannon" was replaced by a new Chinese 20mm machine gun...... Anyway, there is a high-power engine of 1400 kW (twice as much power as the original Zero), plus these things are nothing at all, and there is plenty of room for upgrades.
After the magic reform of the Chinese side, this "Type 90 ship battle" was born. This fighter was mass-produced last year, and there are not many of them at present, and only their latest aircraft carrier "Ni Yu Tsuru" is equipped with it.
……………………………………………………………………
At this time, the fog at sea was not too thick, and the two Japanese planes also found themselves diagonally below the Chinese fleet.
"Hey, Matsushima, look, China's new empty mother ......"
"Aoi, I saw it. That's China's Shandong-class armored air carrier......"
"That's a lot of speed! It's about 35 knots, which is about the same as our two cranes......"
These two (9)〇 ships belonged to the carrier-based aircraft of the Xianghe aircraft carrier, and now Japan's "wife" and "sister-in-law" are also undergoing sea trials, and they are now in the sea 80 kilometers northeast of the Chinese fleet.
"It's about the same size as our two-feathered crane, but I've heard that because it's an armored carrier, the carrier capacity is not as good as our two-feathered crane......"
"But people's defense is high......"
The two pilots are commenting on the Shandong. Suddenly, Matsushima suddenly shouted, "Wait, Aoi, what's going on with that armored carrier? It's so fast, but its chimney isn't smoking......"
Aoi took a closer look and was also startled. "yes, what's going on?" the Japanese two-feathered crane could run at this speed, but by this time, there was already smoke billowing above the chimney.
Both of them were frightened, thinking that they had encountered some supernatural event.
Aoi couldn't help but say, "Could it be a ghost ship?"
"Ghost, sister, when did you have an empty mother as a ghost ship?" Matsushima listened and his hand slipped and almost didn't fall. "Oh, it's slowed down ......"
The two of them were about to lower their height and go down to have a look. At this moment, two cutting-edge fighters painted in gray and black with the emblem of "Wheels run over the ground with blood" flew towards them. The round, chubby fuselage looks stupid and cute, and the whole plane is like a big bottle with wings, but such a strong thing must be thick skin and thick flesh at a glance, and there is no second kind of such a remarkable appearance in the world.
"It is China's Jian-7 that has become a fly, a big bottle in the air! The land-based fighters of the Chinese Air Force, judging by their numbers, should be the ...... of the Vladivostok base." Aoi recognized it at once.
At this time, two more fighters, also Chinese, swooped down from the clouds. These two are different from the baby bottles, their fuselage is slender and beautiful, and the most special thing is the propeller in their nose, which is not a traditional single-propeller layout, but a pair of four-bladed coaxial counter-rotating propellers.
"Efei's J-8, the Vulture carrier-based fighter, and the aircraft of the China Navy Airlines, both of which have no landing hooks, and they seem to be land-based models...... Wow, that's a fast speed, at least 750 kilometers per hour......" Aoi exclaimed. Originally, the speed of the Type 9 ship battle of more than 630 kilometers was already proud of him, but he was afraid of comparing goods, not to mention anything else, and the speed alone was much lower than that of the other party.
The speed of these four Chinese fighters is extremely fast, and even the two big milk bottles that seem to be clumsy are not slow at all. A few minutes later, four Chinese planes flanked them.
At this time, the radio in the cockpit of the Japanese Type 90 ship sounded. A Chinese voice came from inside: "Fighter planes in front, this is China's air defense identification zone, please identify yourself immediately! Fighters in front, this is China's air defense identification zone, please identify yourself immediately!"
This is the general channel of the People's Revolutionary Alliance, and according to the regulations, all military vehicles operating within the forces of the People's Revolutionary Federation must be turned on at any time. Of course, all communication and shouting are in Chinese, which is the standard working language of the People's Revolutionary Federation. As for the point of language and writing, Wen Desi never thinks about bullshit such as "connecting with international standards", but engages in things like "English communication" in Rauschzi. What, the other party doesn't understand Chinese? This is not a problem, you will not understand it after being beaten a few times. Besides, don't you know how to learn? Mr. Wen, that's how confident!
Of course, the two Japanese pilots knew the rules, and hurriedly replied in strange Chinese: "We are fighters belonging to the naval aviation unit of the People's Republic of Japan, belonging to the flight team of the aircraft carrier Shozuru, and the identification number XXXXXX......"
More than ten seconds later, the Chinese fighter replied: "The identification number has been approved, and you are indeed a ...... of the Japan Navy."
Both Aoi and Matsushima breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the other side soon said that the Chinese Navy is now conducting training in the waters here, and in order to cause misunderstanding, please ask friendly fighters to leave as soon as possible. As he spoke, he sandwiched his bags left and right, and posed as a send-off. Aoi and Matsushima also turned away with interest.
After the Japanese Revolution, the Chinese and Japanese armies also conducted joint training on many occasions, and they were no strangers to each other. The two sides chatted over the radio.
"I just saw that your armored air carrier seems to be out of order......," Matsushima suddenly thought of what he had just seen.
"......" The other party was silent for a while, and then replied: "Thank you for your concern, there may have been a bit of a malfunction just now, you see they all stopped......"
Shandong bridge.
"Made, it's finally fooled...... Gu Lu breathed a sigh of relief, and then said depressedly: "I didn't expect Japan's Xianghe and Zuihe to also train nearby, but fortunately, labor and management reacted quickly, and immediately ordered to stop......"
"It's nothing to be seen by the Japanese, it's a big deal for the government to come forward and give a ban order to those two pilots......" Li Ang disagreed. "As long as it is not seen by Western countries, the loophole ......"
"Hey, I almost ordered them to be shot down just now......" Gu Lu wiped his sweat. He didn't think so much about it, and when he learned that two foreign planes had passed over just now, the first thing that came to his mind was the words "kill people and kill people." If it weren't for Li Ang's arrival, those two (9)〇 ships would really not be able to go back.
