Thump thump.
After entering the office, Professor Kong looked at his old acquaintance, Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan." Commander Fang, you wouldn't trick us into helping your fleet modify helicopters like last time, would you?"”
"..."
He couldn't tell that this commander had done such a thing before.
"Ahem."
After coughing twice, Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan said," Professor Kong, let's not talk about the past. This time, I thought of your 602 Institute first. Come, take a look at the blueprint.”
"Alright."
Professor Kong followed them to the desk." I'd like to see what you've come up with.”
Swoosh.
As he spoke, he picked up the blueprint.
This drawing was very standard.
Professor Kong was a little surprised.
In this day and age, there were no computer graphics. They were all hand-drawn. To be so clean and organized, at least it meant that the person who did it had a strong foundation.
" Condor anti-submarine helicopter."
"The overall length is 5.87 meters, the height is 3.79 meters, and the diameter of the propeller is 16.63 meters. It uses two 1410-kilogram turbine shaft engines, and the empty weight is 6.19 tons. The maximum take-off weight is 9.9 tons.”
Professor Kong put down the blueprint and sighed deeply." The idea is not bad, and it's also very beautiful. We have dreamed of designing and manufacturing such a helicopter, but it's impossible. We can't make this engine.”
He was already in his sixties.
I've been through the worst. During the era of humiliation, at that time, the planes of the Japanese were like no man's land in the Fire Country's airspace. They could come and go as they pleased.
Until now, he still remembered that day when they were in the process of moving, a few Japanese bomber planes suddenly appeared and dropped bombs. They even arrogantly lowered their altitude and fired with self-defense machine guns.
He was the only one who survived in the end. His parents and wife's bodies were blown up like rags. He knelt on the ground and searched for a long time, but he could not piece their bodies together.
From that day onwards, he had made up his mind to develop an advanced aircraft for the Fire Country.
However, after stepping into this field with great difficulty, he finally realized how difficult it was. He had no design experience, no samples to refer to, and no precise lathes.。。
Although they did not give up and tried their best, they did not make much progress, especially in the engine area. It was like a mountain blocking their way.
This was also why he said that it was impossible to achieve. Not to mention a 1410-horsepower turbine shaft engine, even a few hundred horsepower could not be made now.
In fact, that was the case. The Fire Country's first turbine engine was made using the technology of those French chickens. They had to produce it while copying it. It could be said that they had gone through a lot of trouble. But the problem was, would they be willing to sell it, would it be advanced?
As for what a turbine engine was.
In fact, it was a type of engine dedicated to helicopters. It was a type of aviation gas turbine engine. The rotation of the engine directly drove the helicopter's rotating blades to generate thrust and lift.
Compared to the piston-type engines used in helicopters in the early days, the efficiency of engines of the same weight was at least doubled.
What did this mean?
This meant that helicopters could be made heavier and fly faster.
Mao Xiong and the foreign ghost were able to build heavy assault helicopters and transport helicopters because they had absolutely advanced turbine engine development technology.
"Elder Kong, take a look at this." At this time, Yang Dingtian took out a few drawings from the bottom. He had always respected these old men who had worked hard for the country and the people.
Oh?
Professor Kong raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Yang Dingtian." This is?”
"The detailed design of the turbine shaft engine, including the materials for the smelting process, forging process, and equipment process.”Yang Dingtian quickly replied.
What was that?
The faces of Professor Kong and the other researchers beside him changed. They looked at Yang Dingtian in disbelief. This was something that thousands of people had failed to achieve even after studying hard every day. Now, it was placed in front of them?
"Impossible."
A young man spoke, then took it and looked at it quickly.
However, as he watched, his hands began to tremble uncontrollably." Teacher, come and take a look at me.。。I don't see any problems."
Can't see the problem?
Even though he was young, he was still one of the top talents in the 602 research institute.
Professor Kong quickly came forward and took the blueprint. He then looked at it carefully. After a while, he said," Quick, bring me a pen and paper."”
"Teacher, here."
Professor Kong took the pen and paper and sat down on Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan's seat. He looked at the blueprint and quickly wrote and drew on the paper.
No one spoke.
The only sound left in the office was the rustling of the pen pen across the paper.
Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan, Major General Zhou Rong, and the others were also nervous.
Why?
The engine was the most important part of the aircraft. If the engine was strong enough, even a pile of scrap metal could be used to build it.
One minute.
Five minutes.
Ten minutes later.
Due to his constant thinking and quick calculations, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Professor Kong's forehead, but the light in his eyes was getting brighter and brighter.
Whoosh.
Professor Kong put down his pen and stood up. " There's no problem. Theoretically, there's no problem."”
"Teacher, is this true?"
"If that's the case, the manufacturing technology of other engines will also be driven.”
"That's great."
"We finally have such technology.”
The expressions of the other researchers present also became agitated. The engine was the core. Once this problem was solved, the rest would be much easier.
"Commander Fang, who designed this? Genius, this was truly a genius. He had single-handedly improved the entire country's engine manufacturing level. This was a great achievement.”Professor Kong asked anxiously as he held the design blueprint.
"Professor Kong, let me say this first. You mustn't be surprised.”Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan quickly comforted him.
They were used to Yang Dingtian's change. However, Professor Kong did not. He was already old. He was shocked and agitated at times. If he moved, his emotions would fluctuate too much, and it was not good for his body.
"Tell me."
"It's him."
Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan pointed at Yang Dingtian.
Professor Kong: "???"
The other researchers: "???"
They must have heard wrongly.
He looked younger than all of them and was wearing a navy uniform. How could they accept that he had designed such an advanced turbine engine?
"Everyone, it's true." Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan said again.
"Good, good, good. With someone like you around, there's hope for our future.”Professor Kong opened his mouth, his eyes filled with gratification and excitement. With talent, there would be a future.
"Elder Kong, your words are too serious. If it was just me, without you, without everyone, without thousands of workers, I wouldn't have been able to do this.”Yang Dingtian quickly replied.
These were his sincere words. The strength of a country did not depend on one person, but on the joint efforts of thousands of people.
What did this look like?
It was a little like playing a game. You clearly had super strength, but when you met a few stupid teammates, you could only cry to death. Only by working together would you have a greater chance of winning.
"Elder Kong, everyone, let's take a look at the design of the other parts first. If there's no problem, we'll report it to the military as soon as possible and start the trial production work.”Yang Dingtian took the other blueprints.
"Alright."
"Yes, yes."
Next, Yang Dingtian gathered with Elder Kong and the others to discuss the overall structural design, the specific functional differences, and the verification of each component.
"If you change it, the army can use it too. Right now, the army lacks transport helicopters.”
"That's not all. I think it can be changed to search and rescue. It's not impossible to install missiles.”
"Even sonar?"
"My God, are you even human? You even know this?”
"What is the principle of this electronic warning device? I've never seen it before. Captain Yang, can you tell me?”
Very quickly.
Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan's office became lively. Exclamations, discussions, and explanations kept coming, giving people the feeling that it had become a classroom.
It lasted until four in the morning before everyone stopped.
Originally, Yang Dingtian wanted to discuss it tomorrow. After all, Professor Kong was old and his health was not good. He would cough from time to time and staying up late was not good for his health. However, the old man insisted.
Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan had no choice but to call a health doctor from the headquarters to accompany him in case anything unexpected happened.
"From the looks of it, there aren't too many problems. However, I'm afraid that there will still be great difficulties in trial-production.”Professor Kong's eyes were filled with unwillingness." With our current industrial base, we can't produce these parts.”
Can't make it?
Major General Zhou Rong immediately asked," Professor Kong, we can even make missiles. Why can't we make these parts?”
"You can't say that."
Professor Kong shook his head and sighed." Some of the parts are too precise. It's difficult for our current machine tools to do it. It'll be very slow if we rely on manual grinding. There are also a few parts that look simple, but we don't have the relevant production lines in our country.”
Indeed.
Yang Dingtian was the most touched by this point. The Fire Country in the future could produce many more things than it was now but there were still key technologies that were being strangled.
"No matter how difficult it is, we have to overcome it. If we don't have the equipment, we can buy it. If we can't buy it, we can steal it. It just so happens to come in handy." Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan spoke.
"..."
What stealing? How unpleasant.
However, it was indeed difficult to buy high-tech equipment. The foreign countries had long signed an agreement. The discussion was to prohibit the sale of strategic grade resources and technology to the Fire Country, Mao Xiong Country and other countries of different camps.
"No matter how difficult it is, we will definitely find a way to solve it. If I can see this helicopter take off, I will be satisfied even if I die.”Professor Kong clenched his fist and said.
"Elder Kong, you can definitely make it.”
"Nuclear weapons are difficult too, but they can still be made.”
"That's right, as long as you think. There were always more ways than difficulties to prevent a landslide.”
Yang Dingtian, Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan, and the others also spoke.
"It's already very late. Professor Kong, you guys go and rest first. If there's anything, we'll talk about it tomorrow.”Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan couldn't take it anymore, let alone Professor Kong.
"Alright."
After locking up the blueprints and listing this matter as a first-class military secret, Yang Dingtian, Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan, Professor Kong, and the others left the conference room and went back to rest.
I only slept for a few hours
Professor Kong got up and found Yang Dingtian. He started to discuss the blueprint of the Condor anti-submarine helicopter in more detail.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Professor Kong's expression suddenly changed." Not good."”
What's wrong?
Yang Dingtian, Lieutenant General Fang Zhennan and the others who were sitting beside him were shocked. It was their first time seeing Professor Kong so anxious. However, nothing special had happened since yesterday.
What exactly happened?
Everyone was guessing in their hearts.
