Doomsday Bunker Upgrade Chapter 434: R&D tasks

Through the flight test of the Y-9, the two transformation schemes proposed by Chen Xin have also been approved.

Although the situation in the stratosphere still does not allow aircraft to fly, at least there is a transformation plan proposed by Chen Xin, which allows aircraft to fly in the troposphere. For the current situation, it is already a great news. .

Maintaining the plane in the troposphere may encounter severe convective weather compared to the stratosphere, and it will also consume more fuel due to various conditions, but it is better than not being able to fly or flying the entire plane at one time. It is good to have a major overhaul.

Of the two methods, the more economical method is to modify the air intake of the aircraft. After all, if electric drive compensation is installed, it is necessary to modify the engine, both in terms of time and cost.

So in the end, after some discussion and research, the top management decided to adopt the method of reforming the intake duct.

And this method has also been improved in the hands of the researchers. It only needs to cut a hole under the original air inlet and connect the new air intake duct to achieve it. It does not require the entire air intake. Duct redone.

The final product looks like an extra plug-in, but in terms of effect, it is very practical.

As for the electric drive compensation plan for the modified engine, although this plan is very good, it has not been implemented in the end. It is only decided to rebuild one or two planes for research on electric drive engines.

After all, the nuclear-powered electric drive solution is obviously more valuable and attractive than the air filter modification solution.

However, these studies were not handed over to Chen Xinxing, but to several research institutes that were originally researching aircraft engines. The design drawings of the new aircraft prepared by Chen Xin's institute were also handed over to the research department for research and trial production. .

This is not a request from the state, but Chen Xin offered to take no responsibility for the development of the new aircraft.

After all, this is a very time-consuming and labor-intensive job, and he has all the blueprints ready. As long as he builds the plane according to the blueprint, the plane can be built.

The subsequent work is nothing more than adjusting or improving various problems of the prototype, which requires professionals to spend a lot of time to complete, and it is true that Chen Xin does not need to do it himself.

Although if he does it, it only takes one or two upgrades to fix all the problems.

Of course, the state did not let Chen Xin sit idle, but entrusted him to develop a more advanced new fighter.

In today's environment, of course, the country's military power has also been weakened.

The army is okay. Although the mobility is limited, ordinary soldiers can still exert sufficient combat capabilities. Although the attack is insufficient, it is still no problem to defend against the enemy's attack.

Especially after Chen Xin provided exoskeleton protective clothing, the military is mass-producing this new equipment. At present, most of the main combat troops have been installed, which greatly improves the combat effectiveness of the army.

Although not aided by mechanized equipment, the individual combat capability is more than enough to fight any ground force before disaster.

Although in such an environment, neighboring countries do not have the ability to attack Yan Nation, this does not mean that the army can relax its vigilance.

It's just that although the Army still has the strength to fight, the Navy and Air Force are about to be shaved.

The problem with the Air Force is primarily a problem with aircraft engines, neither jet nor propeller, that can't fly in dust-laden air.

However, relying on the new air filter and improvement plan provided by Chen Xin, coupled with the gradual recovery of the environment and the gradual unblocking of the Air Force's aircraft, the combat power has finally recovered to a certain extent, and it will not be cultivated by a lot of money. The pilots, which are more valuable than gold, are just abandoned.

But the problems facing the Navy are much more serious.

The rise of the coastline engulfed the Navy's original ports and bases, which undoubtedly gave the Navy a heavy blow.

Not to mention the damage to the inescapable warship caused by the global fire following the meteorite impact. After the loss of the coastal port, the damage to the warship cannot even be repaired in a suitable place.

The subsequent drop in temperature even froze the sea, rendering all warships useless.

Faced with several meters of ice, even a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier can hardly play its role, and professional icebreakers cannot break through several meters of ice.

This makes the entire Navy really into the Marine Corps.

Chen Xin certainly knows something about this situation. Even if he doesn't know, the military will tell him the news, so that he, who is most likely to solve the problem, will not know the situation.

But at present, Chen Xin can solve the problem of the Air Force aircraft. Although it is not impossible for the Navy's warships, under the current situation ~IndoMTL.com~ to move the warships is too much in terms of cost and time. .

Chen Xin doesn't want to move those tens of thousands of tons of steel for the time being, but helping the Air Force design several new aircraft is a pretty good choice.

While the Air Force's helicopters and some propeller planes have gradually regained their ability to fly under the current circumstances, jet planes are still unable to fly.

Not only the problem of engine air intake, but also the problem of dust and particles in the air when the aircraft itself is flying at supersonic speed.

You must know that even an ordinary civil airliner can be knocked down by a bird, let alone a fighter jet at supersonic speed?

Even if there are no birds in the sky, those tiny particles and dust can still cause great damage to aircraft.

This point is from the previous test flight of the Yun-9, but after flying in the stratosphere for a short period of time, after landing, the fuselage was full of small scratches, and even the propellers were damaged.

Faced with this situation, it is natural for the military and national leaders to have an aircraft that can cope with the current situation.

This research and development task was originally contested by several domestic aircraft research and development institutions, and some research and development intentions and ideas have already begun, but Chen Xin couldn't bear it. Tilt rotors like the Osprey Helicopter!

While this is currently the fastest and most technologically advanced helicopter on Blue Star, Chen Xin's new aircraft is more advanced than the Osprey.

There is no way for the senior management to ignore Chen Xin's existence, and the military strongly recommends Chen Xin to develop new aircraft.

In their opinion, Chen Xin must be able to complete this task in a short period of time, which is much faster than leaving it to other R&D institutions for years or even decades to produce results.
