Chapter 172 Test Flight

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    At the beginning, Qin Baoshan and Major Kromlin had carefully discussed the paragliding parachute, so after Major Kromlin returned, according to Qin Baoshan's idea, he directly made this long parachute.  Even in the United States, because of the wars that are raging everywhere and the world situation, they attach great importance to this kind of equipment that can be used only on the battlefield. There is already a special expert group that has conducted research on this topic.  Airborne troops have already begun to try to jump this long parachute.

    During the test flight, they found that this long parachute has great advantages compared to the round parachute.  It is very directional. According to the design plan, pulling the corresponding rope will make the parachute fly in the corresponding direction.  The round parachute in the past can only flutter with the wind, and has almost no ability to control the direction.  It literally took them by surprise, and sure enough the parachute is called a paraglider for a reason, it really can glide like a glider.

    Of course, operating this kind of long parachute requires more advanced skills, and not just anyone can operate it. If this kind of parachute cannot be operated flexibly, you may encounter many problems when flying in the air.  The problem cannot be solved.

    A group of aerodynamic experts in the United States have conducted in-depth research on this topic.  However, theoretical research is one aspect, and practical flight testing is another aspect.  Originally, this long parachute is already a big parachute modification project. If an engine is added to the back of the person, the parachute can be turned into an aircraft to fly in the sky, and the technical reserves required will be even more superb.  up.

    Therefore, it is impossible for Americans to do research alone without Qin Baoshan. After all, Qin Baoshan proposed this topic, which shows that he has already studied this equipment quite deeply.  Major Cromlin came here this time with the intention of using a practical approach to complete the project.

    In scientific research, theoretical research and experimental research complement each other, and at the same time, there will be a sequence. Many things are firstly done through experiments, and some unique phenomena are discovered in the experiments. After theoretical derivation, they promote the greatness of science.  progress.

    For example, nuclear physics is now taking such a path, first discovering the phenomenon of radioactivity, then carrying out experimental research, and then conducting theoretical derivation.

    At the same time, there are also some scientific researches, which are theoretical researches first.  After theoretical deduction, some conclusions have emerged. Those who conduct these researches may not know whether these conclusions are correct or not. Only later, after the development of technology, can they be verified in experiments.

    For example, the theory of relativity is such a theory, it is completely imagined.  What time will slow down and the ruler will shorten, in the eyes of people in the normal world, these seem to be nonsense.  It was not until after the development of science and technology, especially the advent of sophisticated atomic clocks, that they were sent to the sky and compared with the calibrated atomic clocks on the ground, it was indeed true that the atomic clocks flying in the sky slowed down.

    Now we are going to make this special paraglider.  Some people in the United States have already started to do theoretical research, but none of them dare to actually do it. After all, this thing might kill people.

    It is different from a parachute.  The parachute is to jump directly from the plane, and then the canopy really opens.  According to Qin Baoshan, this paragliding parachute can take off directly on the ground just like an airplane.

    For many people, this is simply incomprehensible.  How could this thing take off on the ground?  When the parachute is on the ground, it is simply that it can only fall on the ground and become a pile of cloth.  There are also people with an engine on their backs, will it interfere with the parachute?  No one knows these.  So no one dared to try.  Even though the United States is already a scientifically advanced country, Americans are afraid of death.

    Only Qin Baoshan can fly this thing.  With such expectation, Major Cromlin looked at Qin Baoshan in front of him.

    As an airborne soldier, there is one thing that must be practiced, and that is to fold the parachute.  No one will safely carry someone else's folded parachute, which is equivalent to entrusting his life to others.  Therefore, the parachute bags of the paratroopers are all folded by themselves, so that they can rest assured.  Otherwise, if you jump off the plane, the parachute will not open.  That would be dumbfounded.

    However, it is not necessary to engage in paragliding.

    Qin Baoshan opened the umbrella bag.  As the wind blows, the long parachute is immediately blown out on the ground by the wind, and then bulges up.

    "Careful!" cried Major Cromlin, for it would be a great loss if the wind blows this thing away.  After all, the parachute is made of high-quality silk, and the parts that need to be strengthened are all made of nylon.  In this era, nylon is a high-tech magical material with great strength.High, and the price also means that it is quite expensive, and the parachutes made with it are all sky-high.

    Of course, for the Americans, some losses are acceptable during the test flight.  But if the test flight has not yet started, losses will be caused due to your own negligence.  That's just too much.  Not worth it anymore.

    Hearing Major Kromlin's words, Qin Baoshan smiled: "If it is blown away directly like this, it means that the wind is too strong at this time, and this kind of test flight cannot be carried out. Our paragliding parachute, only  It can fly in the weather with four or five winds, and must face the wind when flying. With the help of the wind, this paragliding parachute opens by itself. The current airflow is just right for flying. Help me, I need  Put the engine back on."

    Originally, Qin Baoshan just wanted to ask the other party for some engines for the plane.  But think about it, the other party will not give it.  But this time, in order to develop this paraglider, the Americans brought in the most suitable engine in their country.

    It seems that it is similar to the Harley motorcycle engine, but it is replaced with a single cylinder, and the exhaust is changed at the same time.  .

    This is the foundation of a powerful industrial country!  What they need can be built at any time. Looking at the exquisite engine system, Qin Baoshan is also very happy. This batch of engines should be able to fully meet their needs.

    "Principal Qin, is this dangerous?" At this moment, Wei Dayong, who had been silent all this time, spoke.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
