Lin Youde was also watching the fight in the air. He let out a sigh of relief when he saw the eagle directly circling and biting the Yankee with a large overload. "Could it be that Dad, you were worried about us suffering a loss just now?" Xiaolu asked curiously. Lin Youde looked back to confirm that he and his daughter were alone in the VIP room, and then said: "I am a little worried. The shape of that thing is too similar to a masterpiece machine from another time and space. I am worried that the Yankees have retained their strength in the previous simulated battle. ¡± The JAS39 Gripen from another time and space is a well-deserved masterpiece. It is a single-engine light fighter designed to compete head-on with heavy-duty aircraft such as the Su-27. Of course, competing head-on with the Su-27 Ji Gang is also a wishful thinking of the Swedes. , after all, it is a heavy-duty air superiority fighter. It is still difficult for a multi-purpose light aircraft to fight it. But the JAS39 has the best overall performance. It is cheap, easy to maintain, requires less maintenance resources, and its air combat capability is actually acceptable after sacrificing some unimportant performance, especially in terms of avionics. The Soviet Union and Russia The electronic system of the 27 Ji has always been bulkier than that of the West, so the improvement in the electronic system brought by the larger fuselage of the 27 Ji is not as huge as the weight difference between the two aircraft. Lin Youde is worried that the twin-engine heavy version of the Gripen built by the Americans has inherited the air combat maneuverability of the original version. Now it seems that he is worrying too much. Lin Youde's Eagle has an astonishing large overload maneuverability. Originally, the F15 from another time and space had a reputation for its actual overload maneuverability exceeding the Air Force's design specifications. The indicator given by the U.S. Air Force was 7.3G maneuverability overload, so Israel came to buy the F15. At that time, the flight instructions given to them by the U.S. Air Force mentioned that the maneuvering overload was limited to 7.3G or less. However, when the Israelis went back to use it, they found that it was fine up to 9G, but the driver felt too sleepy when the overload was 9G. It's grooved and can't last long. The Eagle in this time and space has been improved. Lin Youde's scientists and engineers have conducted wind tunnel tests on the aerodynamic shapes of all famous aircraft in another time and space. In addition, there are some masters in the team who are in another time and space. When the third-generation space-time machine was designed, almost all these masters were on their knees. They were all born several years later in this time-space, and they all joined Lin Youde's disciples. These people seemed to have been quite inspired after carefully testing the aerodynamic shape of the F22F23 J-20 Su-37 many times. In the past ten years, the aerodynamic laboratory has been working on a very creative verification machine, which killed Lin Youde. A total of twenty elite test pilots were scolded by Lin Youde before they started to develop reliable designs. Although this Eagle generally uses the aerodynamic layout of the F15, there are many differences in details, such as the air intake of this F15 It is a variant of the DSI air intake. It does not have the complicated air intake mechanism of the genuine F15. Normally, the air inlets of third-generation aircraft have mechanical devices to adjust the airflow entering the interior. These movable devices not only increase the weight and maintenance difficulty of the aircraft, but also have a negative impact on the aerodynamic shape and radar reflection cross section. The DSI air inlet not only reduces the weight of the aircraft, reduces the cross-sectional area and makes the aerodynamic shape smoother, it also increases the performance of the engine in disguise - although it is only a very limited improvement, it is better than nothing. By the way, this DSI air inlet looks very simple, but in fact it has very high requirements on aerodynamics, fluid mechanics and other disciplines. Its manufacturing also relies heavily on high-precision production processes, and it also has very high requirements on materials science. So in another time and space, only two countries have DSI air intake technology: China and the United States. Even Lao Maozi and Europe have not mastered DSI. But on Lin Youde's side, the big scientists first got an accurate view of the DSI air inlet and knew what it was like. After a lot of wind tunnel testing, they actually worked out the various fluid mechanics formulas required by DSI, and then Complete the aerodynamic and fluid mechanics theories behind it. To be honest, Lin Youde never thought that they could complete this inversion within ten years. Moreover, the inversion was completed when computers were very primitive and the computing resources they could provide were very low. ¡°It can only be said that some people are born cheaters, they are just so **. As for the manufacturing process, the current process accuracy indeed makes the yield rate of key parts of the Eagle's DSI air inlet very low - mainly the bulge itself. Its shape must be very accurate, otherwise problems may occur. You must know that the Eagle The speed is very fast. Such high-speed airflow rushes into the engine from the intake duct. Once there is a slight error in the drum part of the DSI, it will cause the engine operating efficiency to fluctuate. If it is serious, it may directly crash the plane. Now Lin Youde does not have a big killer like multi-axis CNC machine tools at all. Although in the past ten years, Lin Youde has been working hard to develop and provide high-precision automated machine tools to his companies, but he has worked hard to manufacture qualified parts. It still depends on the sky - after probably producing two hundred substandard bulges, you will encounter one that is barely usable. Fortunately, making theseThe alchemy materials for key parts are relatively cheap, otherwise Lin Youde might have to order the Eagle's air intake to be replaced with an ordinary air intake. In fact, the No. 1 and No. 2 prototypes that were tested seven months ago did use ordinary air intakes. The No. 3 prototype that came to fight the Americans was not long after it left the factory. Putting the simulated battle today It's not because Lin Youde likes drama, it's just that his body has not been adjusted properly. Lin Youde has already thought about selling the Eagle with a normal inlet to the allies, and the Eagle he uses will have a DSI inlet. In addition, the air intake is not the only improvement point of this space-time eagle. There are more than a hundred design details modifications on it. For example, the rear line of its main wing is different from that of the F15, with a slight Lean forward, blah blah blah. It is precisely because of these differences in design details that Lin Youde's Eagle achieves similar maneuverability to the F15 even though it is less powerful than the F15. When the new high-thrust engine is installed, I am afraid it will become even more terrifying. In comparison, the American Gripen feels a little different from the real Gripen. After being bitten and scored for the first time, the simulated battle in the air continued. After all, the purpose of the simulated battle is to obtain data. The more times it is conducted, the more accurate the data will be. The opponent¡¯s pilot seems to be an experienced pilot, and he has been trying hard to fight with the eagle, but he still keeps losing points. "The enemy's aircraft was not completely crushed," Xiaolu said after watching the fighting situation intently for a long time. "They did hide their tricks a few days ago. Some of the data displayed by the F106 aircraft now are better than Our estimate in the simulated battle was higher. But it was of no use. Overall, the Eagles won." "Yes." Lin Youde nodded, "I feel that every time the game starts again, the Americans can support it. It took longer, probably because he became familiar with the performance characteristics of the Eagle. " "So the conclusion is that the quality of the pilots is different, which leads to the lack of victory? " " Well, although our test pilots have superb flying skills, they do not have actual combat experience. "More, they are professional flight test experts and are not that strong in combat." "Does the fact that the Americans use ordinary pilots to fly the aircraft mean that they plan to mass-produce and field-install the F106 soon?" "I'm afraid so. , while developing a fighter jet that can fight against the Eagle." Lin Youde pouted, "We really need to do more testing before we can enter trial production. If the Americans act quickly, they can get ahead of us before we produce enough VF5 Eagles. Their own F106 has formed a combat capability. "Although the Americans have fallen behind a little bit in terms of scientific research, their arrogant and unreasonable industrial strength is there. Lin Youde has begun to realize the limitations brought by the lack of industrial capacity. Germany is really inconvenient. The place is too small and the population is too small. These have restricted Lin Youde from increasing the production capacity of his factory. Judging from the current situation, when the orbital elevator is built, Germany, which has gradually passed away from the demographic dividend brought by the post-war baby boom, may not have enough labor to produce various things needed for space colonization. If the orbital elevator cannot be built in the last ten years when the demographic dividend has just begun to show, the task of conquering the stars and the sea in the future will have to be left to Xinming. "Dad?" Xiaolu's voice interrupted Lin Youde's thoughts, "What's wrong with you? You suddenly fell into a daze. The simulation battle is over. We can leave." "Oh, okay, just now your father was lamenting the lack of industrial capacity. Now If we want to mass-produce a new aircraft, we have to worry about whether the production capacity can meet the demand. In the future, when the orbital elevator is built and we start to expand into space, I don¡¯t know if Germany¡¯s industrial production capacity can support it.¡± ¡°Hey, Dad, Didn't you build the elevator to Southeast Asia just to rely on Xinming's power to colonize the universe? " Lin Youde couldn't help but shook his head: "How is it possible? Dad didn't think much about it at that time. He did it purely after considering the international political and military environment. "It's just a choice." "That's right." Xiaolu nodded, "It doesn't matter, dad. I think that as long as humans are not tired of the stars, even if there is no orbital elevator, humans will launch through rockets, little by little. Space has become our colony. " "I can't be as optimistic as you, Xiaolu." Lin Youde shook his head slightly, "After all, I have seen enough of human beings standing still in another time and space, so I still hope. "Your sister can get the cable materials for the orbital elevator as soon as possible." "I think you might as well hope that your new sister can spin silk." Xiaolu seemed not to be optimistic about Sophie's research prospects. "My new sister" Lin Youde touched his chin, "Speaking of which, Isabella is nowThe bloating of the stomach has become very obvious. It should have been in the past two months" "Well, what does Dad want that to be?" " "What is hope? What is that?" Hey, I just want a healthy child, nothing else matters, I have no needs. "
