Anti-Japanese War: Red Alert Base, I am the Power

Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation is the only company in China that has the ability to develop medium and large aircraft.

After separating from Shenfei, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation has developed very rapidly.

At present, there are more than 3,000 engineers in the field of aircraft, and the number of workers is as high as more than 30,000.

Medium and large aircraft such as the Bandicoot tactical transport aircraft and the Century strategic transport aircraft/bomber are all produced in Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation.

At present, all factories and production lines have been put into production.

It has a very high output.

For example, the annual output of strategic bombers in the world can exceed 500.

This number may not seem to be much, but this thing is the H-10 strategic bomber, which is comparable to the existence of the Eagle Sauce B-52.

The number of bombers of this level is destined not to be too many.

The Air Force is equipped with at most about 1,000.

It is impossible to produce thousands of them like the B-29 bomber. This is not a product of the same era.

Therefore, the annual output of 50 is not low.

If it is wartime, the production capacity can be expanded at any time, and three shifts can be guaranteed.

The annual output can reach 200 aircraft in a minute, which is not a problem at all.

Resources, manpower, land, and technology are all available.

Now the H-10 strategic bomber has completely replaced the original propeller version of the Century strategic bomber.

After the Air Force proposed the frontier technology research of supersonic strategic bombers,

Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation naturally took on this so-called frontier technology research.

In just one year, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation even made a prototype.

So it also alarmed Jiang Fan.

He wanted to take a look at this supersonic strategic bomber.

The current code name of this aircraft is Project 105.

Because it was launched on January 5, 1934.

It has been less than a year and a month to today.

When Jiang Fan saw the Project 105 prototype, his eyes lit up.

The design of this bomber is very interesting.

Even he, who has seen countless aircraft in the future, was amazed.

In order to develop this supersonic bomber,

Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation spent the first eight months designing the first draft, and then made a scale model to go to the wind tunnel group in Changbai Mountain to start blowing the wind tunnel.

Currently, only Changbai Mountain has a supersonic wind tunnel group.

This wind tunnel has been blowing for more than five months, under the busy work of more than a hundred engineers.

Its appearance has finally been blown out.

It is the current appearance.

Its nose is very sharp, the whole machine has a streamlined design, and the fuselage looks very smooth, so the resistance will be relatively small.

Its engine is not hung under the wing, nor is it directly installed on the tail.

Instead, it is installed above the tail of the fuselage, on both sides of the tail vertical tail.

The wing adopts a large sweep angle design, and the wing is made very thin.

The sweep angle even reaches 55 degrees.

All these design ideas are for supersonic flight.

The engine uses two afterburner thrust turbojet engines.

A turbojet engine with another thrust is an oil tiger plus another oil tiger, but it must be said that this thrust is very awesome.

The thrust of a single engine can reach 11 tons, and the afterburner thrust can reach 18 tons.

A total of two such engines are equipped.

With the support of these two engines with a single afterburner thrust of up to 18 tons, its maximum flight speed can reach 1.5 Mach, the maximum flight altitude is 15,000 meters, and the maximum range is 5,000 kilometers.

With a maximum take-off weight of 92 tons, its bomb load is also 15 tons.

It can be said that the performance of the design is still quite good.

If it is equipped with nuclear weapons in the future, it will become another trump card of the Chinese Air Force.

Even in conventional wars, it can play a big role.

The general attack method is to approach the target at a high subsonic speed to complete the bombing, and then accelerate to supersonic speed to leave the battlefield.

The main attack is to hit and run, so that the enemy can't catch up at all.

Compared with the deployment of large strategic bombers, this supersonic bomber is more practical in conventional battlefield volunteers.

Century strategic bombers generally carry out carpet bombing.

However, after the 105 engineering aircraft was put into service, the status of the peacekeeping bomber seemed a bit precarious.

It may become the first fighter of the Red Alert Air Force to be replaced by self-developed weapons.

After all, it doesn't have much advantage in any aspect.

Its only advantage is that it is a lower-level replacement for the Century strategic bomber.

After the 105 engineering aircraft came out, its only advantage is gone.

However, all this can only be concluded after the 105 engineering prototype passes a series of test flights and improvements.

If it can achieve the designed performance in the next test flight.

And the cost is relatively not so high.

It has become inevitable that the Peacekeeping bomber will be replaced.

After all, it has supersonic capabilities that the Peacekeeping bomber does not have.

"boom......"

On the runway, after the turbojet engine of the 105 engineering prototype was started, it slid quickly on the runway.

Less than a kilometer away, it raised its nose and completed takeoff.

It simply circled in the air and then began to land.

Then a group of engineers surrounded it and began to inspect and test the aircraft.

After watching for a while, Jiang Fan said hello and left Xi'an Aircraft.

He went to the Xi'an Aero Engine Research Institute next door.

The Xi'an Aero Engine Research Institute is affiliated to the Northeast Aero Engine Research Institute.

It is one of the five research institutes of the Northeast Aero Engine Research Institute and is also known as the Five Sons of Aero Engines.

Their main focus is high-thrust jet engines. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

They developed it based on the turbojet-2 engine equipped on the H-10 Century strategic bomber.

This is a turbojet engine with a single thrust of 5 tons.

After their in-depth research.

They directly increased the thrust of this engine to 18 tons.

That is, the engine currently used in the 105 engineering prototype is one of their achievements.[]

Otherwise, the 105 Project prototype would not have such a powerful engine.

The engine is codenamed WP-2A.-JL

However, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation took another route at that time.

That is the turbofan engine.

They added a second-stage fan on the basis of the turbojet-2 engine. It replaced the first three stages of the low-pressure compressor of the turbojet-2 engine.

So it became the turbofan engine that alarmed Jiang Fan.

Turbofan engines will be the development trend of future aviation engines. Turbojet engines will be eliminated sooner or later.

Its high fuel consumption has doomed its end.

So Jiang Fan is not very concerned about turbojet engines.

Even if Xifa has made it 18 tons of thrust.

Of course, turbojet also has advantages that turbofan cannot compare with.

That is speed.

However, fighter jets need not only speed, but also range and other performance.

Turbojet engines will continue to develop for some time.

The current technology of turbofans will certainly not be able to completely replace turbojet engines.

But this time will not be too long, at most ten years.

At the current speed.

After adding a second-stage fan, Xifa also made some improvements to the turbojet-2.

Its thrust increased from the original 5 tons to 8 tons.

So it became an 8-ton turbofan engine.

However, it is a turbofan engine with a large bypass ratio, which cannot be used on small and medium-sized fighters, but for large aircraft.

Because a second-stage fan is added to increase the bypass ratio.

Its size becomes larger and longer, and its weight is slightly heavier.

Jiang Fan carefully looked at the turbofan engine on the ground test bench.

In the absence of a fairing.

This engine is full of various pipes and circuits, and the structure looks very complicated.

"Chairman, let's start the test run now."

Jiang Fan nodded and said,"You have the final say, I am just a spectator."

After the person in charge got permission, he immediately turned around and said,"Start the test run"

"Ding ding ding....."

Then the alarm bell began to ring.

It rang three times in total, with a five-second interval between each ring.

The ringing of these three bells meant that all staff members needed to evacuate to a safe area.

""Start."

As the underground oil depot began to supply oil, the turbofan engine started.

The tail began to emit a translucent tail flame.

The roar resounded throughout the test bench plant.

"Keep stepping on the throttle."

After running smoothly for five minutes, the person in charge issued another order, while keeping his eyes on the status data of the engine.

If there is any abnormality, it will be stopped immediately.

As the throttle was stepped on, the tail flame began to turn yellowish.

The roar became louder.

""Push the throttle to the bottom."

As the throttle was pushed to the bottom, the engine began to roar wildly.

The tail flame also turned red.

At this moment, the temperature before the turbine of the engine has reached more than 1,000 degrees Celsius.

Now only China has this kind of high-temperature resistant material that can withstand high temperatures of more than 1,000 degrees.

And high-temperature resistant materials are also closely related to engines.

For aircraft engines, if the temperature rises by 100 degrees Celsius, the engine thrust will increase by 10%-20%.

It is precisely because of the successful development of a new generation of high-temperature resistant materials that Xifa can directly increase the engine thrust to 18 tons.

Under the fierce roar , the engine began to vibrate abnormally.

The person in charge immediately stopped it.

Obviously, there was a problem.

This situation is also very normal in aviation engines. This thing can't be smooth sailing.

Everyone began to check various data, and the person in charge led the team to the test bench.

Jiang Fan would not interfere with their work here.

Then he left the Xi'an Aero Engine Research Institute and embarked on the third stop of this trip.

The third stop is Lop Nur in the frontier province.

Here is the largest nuclear test base in China.
