Chapter 421 The Delayed Master (Happy New Year to Everyone)
In the sky, a plane roared past.
When the plane flew over the airport, the powerful roar of the jet engine shocked everyone.
Jet fighter!
Looking up at the sky and looking at the fighter jet doing somersaults in the air, Li Yian looked a little excited.
What does the emergence of this jet fighter mean?
Not only has Nanyang finally entered the door of the jet age, but more importantly, after several years of hard work, Nanyang Aviation Industry has finally taken the most solid step, although before that, Nanyang Aviation Industry had already The C95 four-engine transport aircraft and the Super Giant transport aircraft were manufactured, but these two were only produced according to the drawings. Even if they were improved, they were not completely new designs.
But this fighter in the air, which looks somewhat similar to the MiG-15, is a completely new design. Even though it is developed on the basis of the Ta-183 Crow, for the Nanyang Aviation Industry, its The significance is significant because it is, after all, a design from scratch.
"...The FX-1 fighter has a maximum speed of 1,076 kilometers per hour, a practical ceiling of 15,500 meters, and a maximum range of 1,530 kilometers. It can choose to carry a variety of weapons including bombs and rockets, according to the Air Force According to the requirements, it can carry out interception, escort, reconnaissance, tactical bombing and other tasks under complex weather conditions and even good weather conditions at night..."
Chief designer Kurke Tanke introduced the performance of the aircraft At this time, Li Yian withdrew his eyes from the air and looked forward - where dozens of researchers were recording data.
Li Yian smiled at them with gratified eyes, and the corners of his cracked mouth curled up unconsciously.
Although the name of this aviation research institute is "Tan Ke Aviation Design Institute", there are more than 200 Chinese people in the technical group. Except for a few international students studying in the United Kingdom and the United States, most of them are from Postgraduate students who graduated from the aviation department of Nanyang University - because the postgraduate study period is only two years, a large number of postgraduate students have graduated from Nanyang University since last year, and now these talents have entered all walks of life in Nanyang.
Although these young people cannot yet replace German experts and scholars, they are bound to grow up in the near future and eventually become leaders in various industries.
Just like this plane in the sky - its greatest significance is to train a team! A Nanyang own aircraft design team.
This is the greatest significance of Kurketanke and others coming here, and it is also the significance of those German experts and scholars. They are the crutch for the development of Nanyang. With their help, the local team is bound to grow up. By that time, Nanyang Aviation Industry will surely attract the attention of the whole world.
Even if those engineers from Germany leave Nanyang in the future, it will not have any impact. It is just a matter of time.
Taking his eyes away from those young people, Li Yian said:
"Well done."
When Li Yian looked at Kurt, his eyes were gentle. , the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"Mr. Tank, this aircraft is indeed an excellent aircraft, but its performance needs to be further improved. Now the United States, Russia, Britain and other countries have their own jet fighters, especially the American F86. It is a fighter with extremely excellent performance. I think the performance of the FX-1 should not be inferior to it at least.”
The reason why Li Yian mentioned the F86 is because it had begun test flights two years ago. As the first post-war jet fighter, the F86 has extremely excellent performance. When facing the MiG-15 on the Korean battlefield, it won the considerable air superiority.
Li Yian is not clear about the performance of the MiG-15 on the other side of the Iron Curtain, but thanks to cooperation with the United States, the Air Force still has a certain understanding of the F86.
“Sir, when the Air Force proposed the design of the FX-1, it was based on the American F86 fighter jet, and we also borrowed some F86 designs during the design process, such as the leading edge automatic slats... In order to compensate for the low-speed disadvantage of the swept wing, North American engineers installed automatic slats on the leading edge of the wing. The slats are fully automatically controlled and respond to the impact. When the slats slide forward and open, the airflow speed flowing through the upper surface of the wing can be accelerated to increase lift and reduce stall speed. At high speeds, the slats automatically close to minimize drag. ..."
Although Li Yian is a complete layman when it comes to fighter jets, it does not prevent him from listening to Kurk's introduction with interest.
At the same time, the system indeed popped up a series of prompts.
"You can learn the skill "Aircraft Design", do you want to learn it?" Another useless skill!
It’s not that it’s useless, but it’s of little use, because... compared to individuals, the design of an aircraft requires teamwork. If nothing else, it just has an aerodynamic shape. Design cannot be completed by one person. Now the wind tunnel laboratory is constantly conducting experiments - although German aerospace engineers have used wind tunnels to test all aerodynamic shapes that humans can imagine, even some weird shapes. layout. But Nanyang did not obtain those materials, and most of those materials were seized by the US military. Getting that information requires retesting.
Although it seemed useless, Li Yian still chose to study. Knowledge of the craft of aircraft design quickly came to his mind.
So Li Yian, who was still a novice on airplanes, almost transformed into a "professional".
Li Yian didn't know exactly how many professions the LV.5 level had, but then he could not only discuss aircraft design issues with Kurk and others, but he could even put forward some suggestions on Kurk's design. Improvement suggestions.
In the end, Kurk even forgot that this was the president in front of him, and regarded him as a colleague. Until the end of the test flight, they were still discussing the improvements of the aircraft, and in the end even took out got the drawings.
Finally, after giving the last improvement suggestion, Kurk looked at the person who gave him a lot of inspiration and suggestions. It was only then that he remembered the identity of the other person.
"Sir, if you were not the president, you would be an extremely outstanding, even genius, aircraft designer!"
This evaluation certainly shocked everyone. After all, the original Everyone only thought that Li Yi'an was a physicist, but they didn't expect that he was also so good at aircraft design!
Facing Kurk's praise, Li Yian just shrugged helplessly.
"Maybe, but to Nanyang, your design office is far more important than an aircraft designer!"
Even if this system is a "master" to some extent "System" not only allows people to master skills, but with its blessing, an ordinary person can even become a master! And he is not an ordinary master, but a super master who has never been seen before or since.
But so what?
The significance of a master aeronautical engineer to a country's aviation industry is far less important than hundreds of aeronautical engineers.
In modern scientific undertakings, the most important thing is not a master, but a system, a complete aviation industry system. This is the most important thing.
Without a complete aviation industry system, everything is empty talk. After all, even a master needs a stage to display his talents.
After leaving the design office, Li Yian, who was thoughtful, asked the driver to go to Nanyang University. Looking at the dozens of buses parked in front of the university and the bustling crowd, Li Yian then Realize that it’s the beginning of a new year.
Looking at the students from all over Tangshan, they include high school students studying for undergraduate studies and college students studying for postgraduate studies. In the past three years, Nanyang University's students have mainly come from Tangshan - high school students and college students there are talents recruited by Nanyang. High school students go to college and college, and college students go to graduate school.
Looking at these energetic young people, Li Yian sighed for no reason.
"I'm afraid this is the last round of talent harvest..."
