Chapter 319 Fighter
Under the leadership of Li Yang, the "Silver Falcon" fighter project of Xinyan Country has entered the stage of full implementation.
Elites from major factories and research institutes gathered together to launch a vigorous collaboration. From north to south, from east to west, in the workshops of the Third Front Base, machines roared, sparks flew, and everywhere was filled with a tense and enthusiastic atmosphere.
As the chief designer, Li Yang worked non-stop, working day and night. He shuttled between the design institute, laboratory and assembly workshop, doing everything himself, immersed in drawings and models, discussing every detail with workers and engineers, and striving for excellence.
"Engineer Li, what material are we going to use for the main frame of the fighter plane?" asked the master in the metalworking workshop.
"It uses a carbon fiber composite material with a honeycomb sandwich structure," Li Yang said confidently, "It has high strength and light weight, and can fully meet the aerodynamic requirements of fighter jets."
"But processing carbon fiber is very difficult, and it requires extremely high molds and craftsmanship." The master frowned.
"Don't worry about that." Li Yang patted his shoulder, "We have specially introduced advanced autoclaves and CNC machine tools, plus special molds, we will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty."
Encouraged by Li Yang, the workers were full of energy and fighting spirit.
After repeated tests and process optimization, one carbon fiber fuselage frame after another was finally produced. Their surface was white and smooth, and their strength was amazing, which was truly admirable.
Next comes the "heart" of the fighter - the turbojet engine.
As a signature component of third-generation fighter aircraft, its performance will directly determine the fighter's speed, range and maneuverability.
"This is a tough nut to crack," the chief engineer of the engine design institute muttered to himself as he looked at the blueprint. "Single crystal blades, powder metallurgy disks, third-generation single crystal high-temperature alloys... Each of these is the most cutting-edge technology today."
"No matter how difficult it is, we must do it!" Li Yang said firmly, "The engine is a concentrated reflection of a country's industrial level. With it, our aircraft can truly 'fly with the wind'!"
Inspired by him, engineers worked day and night, from program demonstration to technical breakthroughs, breaking through themselves and refreshing their cognition time and time again.
The rotor blades are made of directional solidification technology, which is highly single-crystal and has greatly improved thermal fatigue resistance.
The inner wall of the combustion chamber is sprayed with ceramic thermal barrier coating, which has high temperature resistance several times higher than that of ordinary high-temperature alloys;
The digital electronic control system realizes real-time monitoring and precise adjustment of engine status......
When the first "Taihang" turbojet engine was hoisted onto the test bench, everyone held their breath.
Li Yang operated the throttle himself with a sharp look in his eyes.
With a roar, dazzling flames burst out from the engine nozzle, and the thrust gauge soared instantly and stopped steadily at the 12-ton mark!
"Success! The new generation of aircraft engines that we independently developed was a success!" Cheers resounded through the sky.
In addition to having a heart, you also need a pair of "eagle eyes and golden pupils".
Fire control radar is the "clairvoyant" of modern fighter jets, and active phased array technology is the best among them.
However, for the new Yan country, which has a weak foundation in the electronics industry, this is undoubtedly a pioneering path.
Fortunately, with the foundation laid by the new electronic plan, Li Yang is confident about this.
He personally selected a group of elites to form a radar research team, from semiconductor materials to microwave devices, from array adjustment to signal processing.
Don't miss any link.
The T/R components use gallium arsenide monolithic integrated circuits, which have low power consumption, high efficiency, and a phase shift accuracy of less than 5 degrees;
Dual pulse working mode, combined with advanced clutter elimination algorithm, has outstanding anti-interference performance;
Doppler filtering uses adaptive technology to greatly improve the detection rate of weak targets... When technical difficulties were overcome one by one and the new radar prototype was unveiled, everyone was shocked.
The wide plane array, white as jade, exudes the light of science and technology. The high-power detection signal sweeps back and forth in the laboratory, and the target features
Come alive on the screen.
"Wow, the detection distance is over 400 kilometers, which is considered first-class nowadays." The engineers praised it.
In terms of weapon systems, Li Yang is even more ingenious.
He personally designed two abdominal ammunition magazines, which can carry eight PL-8 medium-range missiles and two Changjian-8 medium-range missiles, with precision guidance and the ability to kill with one shot.
Eight auxiliary fuel tanks can be hung under the wings, greatly extending the combat radius of the fighter.
In the field of electronic warfare, Li Yang also spared no effort. He led the team to independently develop new electronic warfare pods and reconnaissance pods, airborne jammers,
Devices and warning devices can completely eliminate the "blind, deaf and dumb" problems and greatly improve survivability.
The cockpit design is also unique. The large head-up display, the fourth-generation helmet display and aiming, the audio warning system, the pilot is like a picture
Volume, everything you see is under control.
……
Three months later, at the Changkong Base, a brand new fighter plane stood quietly at the end of the runway.
It has graceful streamlines and sparkling silver light, and the bright red words "Silver Falcon" on the vertical tail fins on both sides are particularly eye-catching.
On this day, the sky was high and the clouds were clear.
Leaders from local governments and the military to military industry gathered together, eagerly looking forward to it.
Li Yang was also at the scene, his eyes were determined and his heart was surging. At this moment, a roar came from the distance, gradually approaching:
A MiG-19 fighter trainer, dragging two white smoke trails, slowly slid onto the runway. It slowly slowed down, and finally stopped in front of the Silver Falcon, and the hatch slowly opened.
Li Yang stared intently and saw a young pilot jump out of the cabin door nimbly, take off his helmet, revealing a handsome and resolute face.
He walked quickly to the front of "Silver Falcon" and bowed deeply. Li Yang stepped forward and shook his hand tightly:
"The blue sky of the motherland is now in your hands!"
The young pilot nodded, his eyes firm: "I will definitely live up to your trust, fly the Silver Falcon into the sky, and protect the blue sky for our motherland!"
After saying this, he put on his helmet and jumped into the cockpit nimbly.
With a loud ignition, the two "Taihang" engines roared, and the nozzles gradually glowed red. With a hissing sound, the "Silver Falcon" soared into the sky in the green smoke, leaving a straight tail, and soon disappeared into the blue sky. Everyone's eyes were focused on the figure that was getting farther and farther away. They held their binoculars and stared with bated breath, afraid of missing every detail.
Section.
The "Silver Falcon" suddenly pulled up and made a 90-degree vertical climb. It flew at supersonic speed, and its tail flame was like a sharp sword, piercing the sky. Then, it began a series of difficult actions in the air: rapid roll, emergency climb, cobra maneuver... The movements were graceful and neat, and it was breathtaking.
It's dazzling.
The sea of clouds was rolling and thunder was rumbling. The "Silver Falcon" was like a vigorous dragon, sometimes soaring into the sky and sometimes diving to the ground. It flew at three times the speed of sound.
The aerodynamic layout is fully utilized, and the whole body is filled with dazzling plasma light.
The cheers on the ground continued for a long time. Everyone was cheering for this great moment and the milestone of the new Yan country's aviation industry.
