Chapter 908 The future of ground effect aircraft

In the next few days, Catherine conducted an on-site inspection of the development of her own cloud system in Japan, as well as the development of IBM.

IBM has now sold all of its personal computer business to Wang An Computer Company, and they have specialized in servers, business and customized services, and have basically disappeared from the private sector. However, unexpectedly, IBM's vitality is strong.

After learning a lot, Watson does seem to have a way with it.

And my Nimbus has become a home game console in Japan, and everything is developing very well.

"Ah la la~ Momoe-chan is already so big~"

Catherine hugged 14-year-old Yamaguchi Momoe.

"I never expected that the little kid I once was is now so tall~"

Catherine patted the other party's head tenderly.

Well, some of them are like adults comforting children.

"Sister Catherine, don't be like this~"

Yamaguchi Momoe is wearing the school uniform at this time, and inside...it's very sad, it's not that she is fat, but she is adjusting her school uniform.

(Which bastard invented the evil adjustment of school uniforms!)

Catherine didn't think of showing off her beauty, but after thinking of the sailor suit, Catherine subconsciously thought of the sailor suit blown up by the wind and the fat underneath...

But now, it’s all gone…

The power of brainwashing is powerful, so Catherine believes that the combination of a sailor suit and a fat suit - preferably a strawberry or a bear - is the best.

"Sister Catherine, look, this is my certificate for being the super-girl champion last year!"

As soon as he came in, the other party pulled Catherine to look at the proof that he won the championship in Super-Girl last year. In fact, if it wasn't for the purpose of continuing to complete his studies, the other party would have become an artist. But even if he was not in the entertainment industry, Yamaguchi Momoe

An album has also been released.

"Momohui turns out to be so powerful~"

In fact, Catherine had known about it for a long time. After all, she had been paying attention to the other party. Although she did not run this super-girl show, Catherine knew some things more or less.

So Catherine's surprise at this time was actually for the other party to see.

(But it’s strange, why Momoe’s impression is different compared to her previous life...is she in better shape?)

Catherine immediately noticed what was going on.

"Wait a moment, I'll change my clothes."

Perhaps she felt that it was a bit disrespectful to wear a dirty school uniform, so Momoe decided to change her clothes.

And when the other party changed into a white dress, Catherine finally noticed the other party's clothes underneath.

You can see the outline of the black adjusted school uniform under the white dress. This is a one-piece design. It may be a little difficult to put on and take off, but it looks like a school uniform, bra, good back, and posture-correcting underwear.

of multiple functions.

(Praise for adjusting school uniforms, this is really a great invention...)

Catherine praised herself happily in her heart. If it weren't for this school uniform, how could Japanese girls have such good figures?

At this time, Catherine had already thrown away her previous resentment.

The two sat down and started chatting happily...

…

At the same time, the United States.

A long time ago, pilots flying airplanes and gliders discovered that aircraft with good aerodynamic performance are less likely to reduce their translation speed and altitude during the level flight stage before landing - the underlying surface is at work. This phenomenon is called

"Air cushion", and a more scientific description is "ground screen effect" or "ground effect", that is, the lift of the wings of an aircraft flying above the air cushion increases and the head-on drag decreases.

Although the ground screen effect also exists when the height of the aircraft from the ground is equal to the average aerodynamic chord, the ground screen effect is most fully expressed when the flight height is equal to 0.1 to 0.2 times the average aerodynamic chord.

And this is the principle of ground effect aircraft.

At this time, the Hawaiian Star, which had been tested for more than 1,000 hours, was being equipped with anti-ship missiles.

"Can it hit? When launching the missile, the ground-effect aircraft is also at high speed, right? Will launching the missile at this time reduce the hit rate?"

General Shepard looked at the eight newly installed anti-ship missiles and muttered.

"It's probably no problem, but I think it would be better to install anti-aircraft missiles instead of anti-ship missiles..."

Next to Shepard, another general said this.

"Anti-aircraft missiles? I heard that the Army is also studying an enhanced iff system, which may also be available to us. If such a system is available, it would be great."

The iff system, also known as the identification friend or foe system, without this thing, modern warfare would be troublesome.

Identification of friend or foe is one of the important means of military confrontation in modern information-based battlefields. It can greatly enhance the accuracy of combat command and control and the coordination between combat units, significantly speed up system response, and reduce the probability of accidental damage. It is especially suitable for multi-purpose systems.

Used in joint operations of arms. With the unprecedented improvement of weapon strike accuracy and the continuous enhancement of destructive power in modern warfare, all parties are paying more and more attention to the development of identification friend or foe systems.

In the game "Call of Duty: Now War 2", the Russian army abolished the US military's iff system to prevent the other side from using nuclear bombs, and then started fighting.

"Well, I heard they are going to use it on the 'Stinger'."

In 1971, the U.S. Army selected the Red Eye II as its future portable air defense missile, model FIM-92.

This "Advanced Seeker Program" (ASDP) was finally taken seriously by the Pentagon. The previous year, the "Red Eye" II was renamed the "Stinger" and was called the second-generation portable air defense missile. The "Stinger" was designed to use

A more sensitive seeker with better dynamics, increased head-on engagement capabilities and an integrated Identification Friend or Foe (iff) system.

Perhaps in this general's opinion, such tracking and guidance technology is very practical for use in ground-effect aircraft.

"But I heard that many problems were discovered during the Stinger guidance test at the White Sands Missile Range." Shepard shook his head: "And the ones used by the Army are different from those used by the Air Force and Navy."

A layman speaks a layman's language, and that's how Shepard looked at the other person at this time.

The Stinger does have a lot of merits, but not all of it is very effective.

The stinger uses a reusable laser device attachment, which is assembled on the launcher and used as a guidance system. Ford Aerospace is responsible for it. However, the other party is now in big trouble, and Shepard is not optimistic about this thing.

In fact, Shepard is more concerned about the application of his tank in Africa.

It seems that such a tank is already very complete, at least judging from the results from Africa, it is true. The only thing that makes the other party dissatisfied is that two of his tanks were destroyed. But Shepa

De has always believed that this is not a problem with the tank, but a problem with the driver. And even if it is a tank, who can guarantee that it can always exist on the battlefield and fight from beginning to end?

That's simply impossible.

"The lift of fixed-wing aircraft is generated through the 'Bernoulli' principle. The kinetic energy and pressure of the air are energy forms that can be converted into each other. When the airflow accelerates, the pressure decreases; when the airflow decelerates, the pressure increases. The wing is

A plane object that is asymmetrical up and down. The pressure difference between the upper and lower parts of the wing causes an upward movement.

Force supports the aircraft to fly in the air. When the aircraft is close to the ground or water and flies below the wingspan, the airflow under the wings will gradually be filled, and the pressure acting on the underside of the entire wing will increase significantly, causing the lift to suddenly increase.

Increase, this peculiar aerodynamic characteristic is the 'ground effect'."

At this time, someone was introducing information related to ground-effect aircraft to several of his colleagues.

Because in the near future, this fully armed ground-effect aircraft will begin testing.

"When will our ground-effect aircraft be announced to the public? I think the Soviet Union may know our plan soon. If so, if they announce their ground-effect aircraft before us, it will definitely be a disaster for us.

A blow."

A general said this.

"Don't worry, if this test is successful, we will announce it to the public."

Someone familiar with the matter said so.

"I think the best way is for us to announce our treasures during live-fire exercises. This will definitely bring a huge deterrent to the Soviet Union..."

"No, no. Our products should be announced through civilian means. Ground effect aircraft are mainly troop carriers and motherships that replace ships. We are developing a large number of civilian ground effect aircraft. When the time comes, we can requisition these aircraft at any time, and we will

With sufficient transportation capacity, and when demonstrating to the Soviet Union, we will not cause too much harm to them."

Shepard shook his head, he really wasn't interested in civilian use or anything.

However, Shepard already knew that once such a ground-effect aircraft was developed, it would definitely be used for civilian purposes.

Because of its huge transport capacity, such a ground-effect aircraft is definitely faster and more economical when used for transoceanic voyages, and is more affordable than the Boeing 747.

Boeing has already participated in the research and development, and it is said that the other party is already very interested in this product. I believe that the other party will develop this technology soon.

Although he is not interested in this aspect, Shepard is already doubting at this time whether after a few years, he can go to Europe with this guy?

…

As for the character of Lyreira's wife... you have to be careful. She is a slut and treats you purely as a m. She will always only like your brother, so when you are together, don't say "love"...

Hahahaha~The fifth update is completed~
