C1912 Mig-29's Improvement Suggestion
From the side, I don't know, but from the front, it's a thin overall lift. There was no room for additional fuel tanks, the head had to be installed with electronic equipment. Behind it was the engine, and below it was the inlet. As a result, its fuel could only be stored on the wing. How big was the wing? That was how the problem of short legs came about.1
Now, when Qin Guan said he wanted to increase the fuel storage, the designers who followed Ivan shook their heads. You are an amateur. What do you know?
"Please guide me, President Qin." Ivan said it very politely. Since the other party was sincere, Qin Guan naturally had to give him some pointers.
"First of all, the ventilation port on the back of his plane. It takes up a lot of space. I suggest we remove it and take out the space here. Store more fuel " Now, everyone had already clustered together and arrived at the helipad outside. Qin Guan introduced the MiG-29 fighter aircraft to Ivan.
"No, no, this is a must. When we take off on the dirt runway, we must avoid inhaling the debris." One of the designers said. This was their classic design, how could they simply cancel it?
"Colonel Reyer, tell them. Do you need it?"
"Our runway is all high standard. There are no miscellaneous items on the runway. Even if it's an Aircraft Belly, we don't have to worry about being sucked in. This kind of auxiliary inlet is useless to us." Reyer said.
Actually, the MiG-29 was very high, even though it was the breathing of the Aircraft Belly. In fact, looking at the height, it was about the same height as the MiG-21 at the head of the plane. MiG-21 was not worried about breathing in miscellaneous items. What was MiG-29 worried about?
Your Bear Country might have considered this, but to us, this is completely useless.
"Did you hear that? The user said that this function was not needed. In that case, it could at least increase the fuel by a few hundred liters and increase its flight by one to two hundred kilometers. Otherwise, its current flight range would be equivalent to the Coconut Jujube Country Air Force. It's too little. It's a typical airport guard."
When Qin Guan said this, it was like it was stimulating everyone's eardrums. The flight distance of this plane was quite short, and it was indeed an airport guard. But why did this sound so awkward?
"If you don't plan to improve it, we can develop a suite for you. In the future, if you sell planes, we will sell condoms. " Qin Guan's words made these people even more embarrassed. Qin Guan was going to slap them in the face.
"Of course, just this alone is still not enough. There is too little space in the Mi G-29 body. If we continue to increase the fuel, we can only think of a way to protect the fuel tank. I suggest that we add a 2,000 liter fuel tank on the back of the body. With a slight decrease in mobility, we can make a qualitative leap in the course."
Looking at its small body, there really is no place to store the fuel tank, so we can only think of a way to do so from the fuel tank.
The so-called fuel tank is first to protect the shape, which is to not damage the original gas layout and not increase the area of the wind. This way, there won't be any side effects of the fuel tank.
The secondary gas tank was easy to use. It could be hung directly on the wing, but this method changed the original gas layout of the plane, increased the flight resistance, and greatly reduced the mobility of the plane.
The fuel tank was on the premise of maintaining or not changing the overall streamlined airflow layout of the plane. It was closely attached to the container that stored the fuel. The circular surface of the container was connected to the wing or the body of the plane. This way, the flight resistance could be reduced. It did not need to be airdropped before entering combat mode. It was considered to be used for a long period of time.
The most successful containment tank was the F-16. This kind of prismatic fuel tank that came out of the two sides of the aircraft increased the aircraft's fuel reserves by 1,700 liters, greatly increasing the flight distance.
The F-16 was originally designed for close combat, and was a product of the fighter mafia's theories. The reason why they couldn't even fire the Sparrow Missile at the beginning was for close range combat. But in the end, the development was completely different. How could they increase the speed?
The other planes had actually tested it out before. What F-15? F-14, F-18, they all had a protective fuel tank project. But in the end, none of them were used on a large scale, because the people of Y Country had a large number of Air Refueling Aircraft. There was no need to add more details to the fuel tank. The F-16 fuel tank was mainly used for exports.
Similarly, in order to overcome the problem of short legs, the MiG-29 This was the codename MiG-29 SMT project. Compared to other planes, from the outside, it was the appearance of a huge hunchback, the hunchbacked MiG-29. Furthermore, the MiG-29 that followed had all become hunchbacked.
This hunchbacked was actually the reason why a large 2020 liter fuel tank had been added to the back of the machine.
One had to know that the basic MiG-29 fuel tank was only around 3000 liters. The internal oil flight was 1,500 kilometers. What about now, if there was an additional 2,000 liters of fuel tank on the back? It could instantly increase the aircraft's flight by two-thirds. In the past, it was more than 1,000 kilometers. It had expanded to 2,000 kilometers in one go. If the internal oil flight could not even reach 2,000 kilometers... Could it still be called a fighter aircraft?
"Of course, this is also a configuration of our plan. We have developed it, and we can easily equip any MiG-29 fighter jet." Qin Guan said with a smile.
Ivan had a strange feeling. This Qin Guan seemed to be more familiar with MiG-29 than he was with his own side. Had he come into contact with this fighter aircraft before? The improvements that he proposed seemed to be feasible!
Qin Guan confidently and confidently modified their aircraft, making the designers of Mikoyan Design Bureau very uncomfortable. What kind of thing was this!?
"After these improvements, its course can satisfy the needs of Coconut Jujube Country. The other important aspect is its aviation. The pilots of the Coconut Jujube Country have adapted to the advanced Glass Cockpit. When faced with this kind of pure mechanical cockpit, it was not used to it. Furthermore, it was not conducive to the performance of the fighter jets. Therefore, it was necessary to change the large scale of the aviation system. I suggest that we use the equipment of our J-14 fighter aircraft to change their equipment. Their heads are about the same. The Coconut Jujube Country also has experience in operating and maintaining these systems. They can easily change their equipment. How about it? "
"No, this is absolutely impossible. President Qin, are you here to help us, or are you here to mock us?" Finally, one of the designers of Mikoyan Design Bureau couldn't help but shout at Qin Guan.
Every word of Qin Guan had deeply penetrated into their hearts. Qin Guan even said that he wanted to give them the development kit. This was clearly not putting them in his eyes. Qin Guan was clearly here to mock them!
