C1845 Jacques 141 Metal Pilot
Now, they needed double insurance. For the time being, they would design it according to the Lift Engine. At the same time, they would create a branch to prove the feasibility of this Lift Fan.
Dongdukov nodded. "I am also very interested. I believe that this is the best way to successfully develop our aircraft."
Just like that, Qin Guan came to the Yaklev Design Bureau and achieved a goal that he had planned in advance. He wanted to establish a relationship with the researchers here. When the Bear Country collapses in the future, with a good relationship with each other, it would be easier to pull them over. Now, Qin Guan had already paved several passageways at the same time. In the future, once Bear Country collapsed, the researchers wouldn't be able to continue living. All of you can come to Han Country. Han Country welcomes all of you!
"Now, can you introduce us to the Jacques -141 fighter aircraft?" Qin Guan asked.
They did not intend to introduce them to Qin Guan and the others. But now? ... Both sides had reached a consensus that they could work together on the modification of the fighter aircraft. In this way, Qin Guan and the others could naturally see the model of the fighter aircraft. In any case, they could sell the MiG-29 to Han Country, let alone the vertical landing and landing fighter aircraft that their parents did not love.
"Let's go, let's go and take a look at the full metal prototype." Shujikov said.
While developing the fighter jet, although it could already be designed using a computer, but, after all, the fighter aircraft designed by the computer... It didn't seem to be intuitive, so now, the middle step of designing the fighter jets... It's to make a prototype.
Ordinary prototypes were usually made of wood. After all, it was very fast, and the processing of wood was very simple. It could be processed into a corresponding shape.
At least the domestic fighter planes had all gone through this stage. J-8, J-10, Owlet Dragon, and Leopard. All of them had been made into wooden prototype machines. And now, the people of Bear Country had also created a prototype. However, the people of Bear Country were more advanced. They had created a full metal prototype. Using metal to create a prototype would make it more textured.
Therefore, everyone entered the inner area of Yaklev Design Bureau together. There, everyone was looking at the elegant looking fighter in front of them with surprise.
The full metal prototype of the Jacques - 141!
This was completely built according to the ratio of one to one. It could be seen that this kind of plane was much bigger than the Jacques -38!
The Jacques -38 was only 15 meters long and had a wingspan of 7 meters. As for the Jacques - 141, it had already been enlarged to 18 meters long. If it wasn't for the fact that the wingspan was 10 meters, if it wasn't to take care of the aircraft carrier's lift area, it might have been even bigger.
Now, this aircraft looked more modern. Its appearance was prepared for supersonic flight. That huge rectangular inlet looked a bit like MiG-25. Its tail had turned into a double tail, prepared for the installation of the circular rotary jet in the middle of the plane.
The laymen were watching the show, while the insiders were watching the show. Chen Rui and the others had already started to speculate about the layout of the aircraft, where the engine was, where the fuel tank was, how the landing gear was recycled, how the inlet of the aircraft was designed, and so on.
Everyone first turned to the tail. That was the biggest secret.
How to control the jet of the aircraft to spray downwards? The simplest way was to control the Vector Nozzle like the F-22. Directly using a blocking board to change the direction of the airflow. When he first developed the F-35, the Lockheed did the same thing. They designed a two-dimensional single-sided expansion tail spray tube. There were two blocks behind the jet tube, one above and one below. The upper block was far longer than the lower block. This way, the top block could be turned down by 90 degrees, causing the jet stream to shoot down vertically.
However, very soon, they realized that this simple method would bring about unacceptable shortcomings. The most important thing was that the airflow was separated, resulting in a serious thrust loss.
At the same time, the weight of this jet was too great, and it was not easy to seal it. The operation structure was also quite large.
Later, they thought of the Yaklev Design Bureau's Jacques -141, and decided to bring their technology over. This was a strange rotation method. In the scientific name, it was called the Three bearing Rotary nozzle.
Specifically, this kind of jet was divided into three parts, and the joints were all at a certain angle. This circle was long and short on one side, and it was connected through three sealed circular bearings. Normally, the first section's long end was horizontally connected. It happened to be connected to the short end of the second section. This way, the three sections were connected. The entire jet is standard, when needed, as long as the external generator is used to drive the gear on the middle section, this way, the front and back sections will remain motionless, only the middle section will rotate 180 degrees. It will make the long end of the three sections fuse together, just like that. Composition. It was done! One! The structure was bent down by 90 degrees.
The brain of an engineer is always the most ingenious!
Now, on this metal model, everyone could see such a jet. It was completely different from the previous Jacques - 38. The main engine of the Jacques - 38. It was separated into two sides, one big circle divided into two small circles. The two sides were sprayed. Now, it was a big circle. After turning in a circle, the spraying pipe was turned around.
It was a very clever plan.
Of course, this thing had a lifespan. According to the standards of Bear Country, a thousand cycles was already considered very high. If it could be used once or twice, it could be used five hundred times. It was enough for a few years of flying.
It was estimated that the jet tube had not reached its lifespan yet, and the engine was about to reach its lifespan.
Qin Guan circled the plane once, and then spoke again. There was a chance, how could he miss it?
"Master Shu Qikov, have you considered the stealth ability of the plane?" Qin Guan asked.
In this era, invisibility was definitely ahead of time. For the whole nation, only when the F-117 of Y Country showed its power would they know how terrifying a fighter jet was.
However, Qin Guan had been pushing this matter. Under Qin Guan's push, at least in Aviation World. Stealth was a very popular word. Back then, Qin Guan had led a team to participate in the exhibition. He had once introduced a model of invisibility, which was quite advanced.
As for the navy, the Invisibility Double Body Missile Boat produced in Han Country had long been sold around the world. It looked like it was very scary, and the price was not expensive, so many navy troops had taken a liking to it and ordered a batch.2
"I've heard of it." Shujikov said, "Your side has done quite well in the aspect of invisibility."
"I feel that as long as this fighter model is slightly modified, it will be able to greatly increase its invisibility ability." Qin Guan said, "I think we might be able to cooperate in this aspect."
If they were to improve the appearance of the fighter, then they would have to work with them more. Qin Guan knew that if Yaklev Design Bureau wanted to survive, they would be more bold to accept new ideas. For example, in the history of Parallel Spacetime, they had modified the appearance of the Jacques 141 and had the ability to turn invisible. It was called the Jacques -143, but later on, they felt that it was not enough to scare people. They changed it to the Jacques -201, but it had never been sold.
Now, if we work together, then there will be even more content.
