Chapter 334 I really doubt this is an aerobatics show
is this real!
Jiang Hengbo replied, "It should be relatively reliable. For the specific situation, you can call and ask Mr. Lin."

Yes, you can call directly!

Zhu Zhiwen stopped talking nonsense, picked up the phone and called, and got straight to the point, "Mr. Lin, I heard that your company signed an order for 120 LH165 turbofan engines with the military. Can you tell me the sales price of a single engine?" price?"

If other people asked about this matter, Lin Feng might still hesitate, but he would not keep it secret from Zhu Zhiwenze, he laughed and said, "President Zhu, I knew you would make this call, our single The price of one engine is 5500 million yuan."

It's really 5500 million yuan!

This is what Lin Feng himself said, so it is absolutely true!
"Thank you, I'm so happy to hear the price, I'm finally completely relieved!"

After chatting with Lin Feng on the phone for a few words, the call ended, and the moment Zhu Zhiwen put down the phone, Zhu Zhiwen's mood was the same as before. He was still worrying about the engine just now, but now he is fine, and all problems have been solved.

"Old Jiang, this surprise is really too great." Zhu Zhiwen said extremely happily, "In this way, our fighter plane will have the best power in the world, and its maneuverability will probably rise in a straight line. I look forward to what our fighter will look like with the LH165 turbofan engine."

Jiang Hengbo was also full of anticipation, and said loudly, "Needless to say, its maneuverability is estimated to be off the charts, and it can perform all kinds of difficult movements with ease."

The two looked at each other and smiled!
happy!

Thunderfire Turbofan Corporation.

Almost everyone in the company knew about this big order, and the whole company entered the normal production and manufacturing stage. The second and third turbofan engines were assembled one after another and successfully passed the test run.

On the final assembly stand, the final assembly of the fourth turbofan engine is more than halfway through, and it is estimated that it can enter the factory test run in two or three days.

Zheng Xianyuan, the general manager, said, "At this moment, we are full of energy. We did not expect the military to order 120 of our engines in one fell swoop!"

Liang Guangwen said, "Yes, 120 engines are enough for us to produce for one year. It seems that we need to recruit another batch of employees to increase our production capacity."

"Yes, I think so too." Zheng Xinyuan fully agrees with this.

The two were chatting like this in the assembly workshop, looking at the final assembly of the fourth engine on the assembly stand in front of them, someone walked over quickly and reported, "Mr. Zheng, the military transport vehicle has arrived, do you want to go over and have a look. "

Zheng Xinyuan waved, "Come on, let's go to the test workshop."

Just now, a military green transport vehicle drove into the test workshop, ready to transport the first batch of two LH165 turbofan engines.

Not long after, our group walked into the test workshop.

In addition to the engine test stand, there is also a factory building for storing and inspecting the engine, which is thousands of square meters. Three large army green wooden boxes are neatly placed on the open space of the factory building.

Inside the three several-meter-long packing boxes are three LH165 engines, on which are the batch numbers and production dates of the engines.

The military transport vehicle was parked next to them, and the workers were hoisting the first engine onto the vehicle. When they saw Zheng Xinyuan and others coming, they greeted them proactively.

"Hello Mr. Zheng!"

"Mr. Zheng, we are carrying out the factory hoisting of the engine, please give instructions."

Zheng Xinyuan said, "Continue to hoist."

Then, I watched it in person, and asked about the factory inspection. In everyone's eyes, the two engines were successfully hoisted onto the transport vehicle, and then covered tightly with a tarpaulin.

The car was loaded with two engines and left slowly. It drove out of Leihuo Turbofan Engine Company, and its destination was an aircraft factory. These two engines will be used to power a new domestic fighter.

An aircraft factory.

The prototype that was originally parked outside the final assembly plant was towed into the final assembly plant. This aircraft has completed a series of verification test flights. However, its power is a Russian-made engine, and now it is going to be replaced by an LH165 turbofan engine. , and then conduct a test flight.

The main purpose is of course to verify the flight situation after installing the new engine.

In the final assembly workshop, there are still two fighters of this type undergoing final assembly. They are the No. [-] and No. [-] fighters after they have entered small-batch production. Can go offline.

When Zhu Zhiwen and Jiang Hengbo arrived at the assembly workshop, they watched the prototype machine being pulled out and parked at the designated location.

Several workers and technicians began to take action, preparing to remove the engine on the prototype and replace it with an LH165 turbofan engine.

Because this engine is highly versatile, Zhu Zhiwen and the others also considered the possibility of replacing this engine when designing this fighter, and carried out some special designs, so it is not too troublesome to replace.

"Mr. Zhu, really replace the turbofan engine of Leihuo Technology Industrial Group!"

"I heard that this is the world's top military turbofan engine, I don't know if it is true!"

"I can't wait to see how it looks with a new engine!"

Many employees in the assembly workshop watched the prototype being pulled in from the outside, and couldn't help talking about it, especially after knowing that it would be replaced with the world's top-level engine, there were more people watching and talking about it.

Amid everyone's heated discussions and gazes, Zhu Zhiwen waved his hand and ordered, "Disassemble the Russian-made engine!"

Several workers started to disassemble under the guidance of the technicians. First, they opened the engine compartment cover to expose the engine inside, and then disconnected various pipelines and wiring connections. Everything was carried out in an orderly manner.

I don’t know who yelled, and many people looked away from the prototype and looked in the direction of the logistics gate. They saw the gate open, and then a large army green truck drove in. Things, just covered tightly with a tarpaulin, I don't know what's inside.

"Could it be that the engine of Leihuo Technology Industry Group has arrived!"

"It looks a bit like it!"

"There should still be two engines, I seem to see two packing boxes!"

"."

Hearing the movement, Zhu Zhiwen also looked over, and then said loudly, "It should be that the engine we need has arrived!"

While talking, he walked quickly towards that side.

Sure enough, two LH165 turbofan engines have arrived!

The transport vehicle stopped, and the tarpaulin that was tightly covered on the vehicle was untied, and then everyone saw two large packing boxes neatly arranged on the vehicle, each of which was several meters long.

"Report to Commander Zhu, the engine has arrived as required, please instruct!"

Zhu Zhiwen said loudly, "Receive the engine!"

The administrators and technicians of the assembly workshop received the engine together, first checked the appearance of the packing box, and after there was no problem, the two engines were hoisted down one by one and placed on the ground.

And of course unboxing!
The packing boxes were opened one by one, and the two engines showed their true colors. Many people gathered around, of course, they wanted to take a look at the two legendary engines.

"Tsk tsk, it's so beautiful!"

"It's like a work of art, so exquisite!"

"Let's not talk about the performance for the time being. The appearance alone is a few blocks away from many engines."

"."

Zhu Zhiwen, Jiang Hengbo and others also looked at these two engines seriously, and were very satisfied. They are worthy of being the products of Leihuo Technology Industry Group.

in the office.

Lin Feng received a call from Zhu Zhiwen, "Mr. Lin, we have received a total of two engines. Next, we will install one of the engines on our prototype for flight test verification."

"Mr. Zhu, our engines will come in a steady stream. The production of this fighter plane needs to be speeded up."

Before, I was worried that the engine could not keep up, but now the situation is completely reversed. The engine has been manufactured one after another, and the production speed of this fighter is obviously lagging behind.

However, Zhu Zhiwen was happy, and laughed, "Mr. Lin, don't worry, we will manufacture at full capacity, and the mass-produced No. 001 machine will use your engine!"

After chatting for a while and hanging up the phone, Lin Feng thought to himself, the LH165 turbofan engine has been mass-produced, and this stealth strategic bomber has also entered the prototype manufacturing stage, what kind of aircraft will be developed next.

Lin Feng even looked at the system, and there are still about ten times left, which is basically enough.

I also looked at the things in the system again, which made people very jealous, but they were all gray and black, and they were completely unusable.

What kind of plane will we do next?

Is it a fourth-generation stealth fighter or a large transport aircraft!
No matter what kind of aircraft it is, the military has been longing for it for a long time. Lin Feng is going to wait for a while. At this time, the top military officials are probably already considering this matter.

Indeed, the above has already begun to demonstrate, and several discussion meetings have been held. Xie Kang participated in each meeting, and the controversy is relatively large. Some people advocate launching the fourth-generation stealth fighter first, and many people advocate Research and develop large transport aircraft to comprehensively improve the air transport capability of the army.

The controversy is relatively large, and there is no result for the time being.

The engine replacement of the domestic all-weather fighter has been proceeding in an orderly manner, because the replacement is another engine, the workload is still a bit heavy, and it has been done for more than ten days, and it is finally completed.

In the final assembly workshop, the engine of this prototype was replaced from a Russian-made engine to an LH165 turbofan engine, and a lot of parts were replaced accordingly. Fortunately, the engine replacement was considered early in the design, but it was completed. It went well.

Seeing the plane whose engine had been replaced, Zhu Zhiwen felt a little excited, and wanted to see its flight test results.

"Master Zhu, everything has been checked and there is no problem."

Zhu Zhiwen waved his hand and said, "Let's take it out and make all the preparations for the test flight."

Under the excited eyes of many people, the plane was pulled out of the final assembly plant and parked on the apron outside.

The next day, Lin Feng and a group of people came here in person.

"Boss Lin, welcome to come!"

Zhu Zhiwen shook hands with Lin Feng enthusiastically, and took everyone to visit the plane parked on the tarmac.

Of course, there must be a meeting before the flight test. In addition to arranging a series of test flight work, the flight test plan is also discussed.

As the deputy chief designer, Jiang Hengbo also expressed his opinion, "Everyone, I think the next test flight is mainly for stability, and only routine test flights will be carried out."

He not only put forward his own opinion, but also said a series of reasons, such as whether it is an aircraft or a pilot, it is necessary to have an adaptation process, and it is steady, and those difficult and risky test flights will not be carried out.

Lin Feng shook his head lightly.

I don't agree with such a view at all. The next test flight is mainly to verify the engine. Blindly seeking stability can't reflect the excellent performance of this engine.

Seeing that Lin Feng seemed to be shaking his head slightly, Zhu Zhiwen said, "Boss Lin, what's your opinion?"

Lin Feng did not express his opinion directly at first, but looked at the two pilots present and asked, "Do you have full confidence in your flying skills?"

The two stood up with a "swipe", and said loudly, "Report to Mr. Lin, we have full confidence, no matter what kind of flying movements there is, there is no problem at all."

Lin Feng nodded, motioned for them to sit down, and said, "Since that's the case, we'll do it all at once. We'll fly whatever flight action can reflect the maneuverability of this plane."

No!
Many people looked at Lin Feng in surprise.

Mr. Lin, you are going to make a big move!
Lin Feng said, "I know our engine very well. After using this engine, the maneuverability of this fighter plane will definitely go up to a big level. Then we will fully verify its excellent maneuverability."

"I agree!"

"I don't think there is any problem either."

In the end, everyone voted with a show of hands, and almost everyone agreed with Lin Feng’s point of view. In the end, even Jiang Hengbo himself raised his hand. Therefore, the next test flight was set, the specific flight movements, and what the whole test flight process looked like. , everyone conducted a detailed discussion, and finally formed a meeting resolution.

The next day, the test flight began.

This fighter plane has also made all preparations, parked on the runway, and in the flight test command and control room, technicians and commanders are in their positions.

There are quite a few people in the open-air test flight observation area. Apart from Lin Feng, Zhu Zhiwen and others, there are also some designers of this aircraft, some people from the aircraft factory, and many people from the military.

Many people have binoculars in their hands, and Lin Feng and Zhu Zhiwen are no exception.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the test flight began.

In everyone's eyes, the plane started, accelerated on the runway, and after reaching a sufficient speed, it left the ground and flew towards the sky.

"It's so fast!"

"Look, it's a sonic boom cloud, breaking through the speed of sound so quickly!"

The first project of the test flight was to verify the maximum flight speed. Under the strong thrust, the aircraft quickly broke through the sound barrier and produced a very obvious sonic boom cloud.

This kind of acceleration performance is simply exciting to see!
Especially those pilots who watched the test flight, it was the first time that a fighter jet with such a good acceleration performance was seen after flying a fighter jet for a lifetime.

"It should be Mach [-]!"

"I can't stop, it may exceed Mach [-]!"

It's just that the speed was so fast that the plane flew out of everyone's sight. The people in the open-air test flight viewing area really didn't know how much Mach it was, but in the test flight command and control room, everyone knew it clearly.

The flight altitude and flight speed of the aircraft were clearly displayed on the instruments. Everyone saw that the speed of the aircraft was rising in a straight line. It didn't take long to break through the sound barrier, to Mach 1.5, and then to Mach [-].

The speed is still rising rapidly!
When the speed reached Mach 2.8, the pilot's voice came over the radio, "The plane vibrates slightly, do you want to continue to accelerate!"

It's not that the speed cannot be increased, but that if the speed continues to increase, the vibration value of the aircraft will exceed the standard, which means that the flight speed has basically reached the limit of the aircraft, but not the limit of the engine.At this time, the afterburner is not even turned on.

Many people have never seen such a situation in their entire lives, their mouths were slightly opened in surprise, and they did not recover for a long time.

For safety reasons, the speed did not continue to climb, but flew at a speed of Mach 2.8 for more than 10 minutes, and then began to return.

If it continues to fly like this, it is estimated that it will not take long to fly thousands of kilometers directly. After the test flight, Zhu Zhiwen and the others have something to do. Improve the structural strength of this fighter so that it can adapt to higher flight speeds.

"It's back!"

"Well, I saw it too."

Many people saw the plane appearing in the field of vision again, and they could see it more clearly if they held a telescope. The next step is the maneuverability test flight verification, and a series of flight maneuvers will be performed.

Over the airport, it first flew upwards and then dived. It seemed easy and there was no difficulty in distinguishing.

After completing these two movements, it performed another rolling movement, which was also completed very beautifully. Many people watching the test flight applauded involuntarily.

Vertical climb!

In everyone's eyes, this plane is like a cloud piercing arrow, flying vertically upwards, which requires the engine to have a strong enough thrust.

"Wow, so fast!"

"Oh my god, this is a vertical climb. It's the first time I've seen someone who can climb so fast!"

Seeing the vertical climb speed of this aircraft, many people were shocked. It was the first time they saw that the vertical climb could fly at such a speed.

Next, there was a sound of exclamation!

"Too good!"

"This is how much thrust is needed to have such a performance!"

"I really doubt I'm watching an aerobatic show!"

Circling, diving, rolling, jumping, sharp ascending turn, half-rolling and inverting, bucketing, bucket flipping, inclined bucketing and so on.

It's not about aerobatics, but the key is that the aircraft was completed with ease, as if there was no difficulty at all.

After this series of movements, some people knew that the finale was about to begin. Even Lin Feng was holding a telescope and staring at the plane closely, his mood slightly agitated.

There are only [-] words today. If you have a monthly ticket or a recommendation ticket in your hands, you still hope to help us vote for this book.
