Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Chapter 202 The battlefield in North China looks more and more like the Western Front in Europe

Not long after Zhong Lin left, Shan Wenbao rushed into the director's office with a briefcase under his arm, sweating profusely.

This old man had a fiery temperament. He walked in and sat down on the opposite side of the Yellow River. Without saying a word, he picked up the tea cup on the table and drank it all in one breath, and then started to take out documents from his bag.

The first thing that catches the eye are the three structural cross-sections of the trainer aircraft. Just a cursory glance can make you deeply shocked by the beauty of the engineering design.

The artist's technique is very high, and the exquisite drawings look like they were printed.

Every key part of the three planes has text labels, and they even carefully noted what materials to use and what effects can be achieved.

More than half an hour later, Huang He looked through all the documents roughly.

Although he was very satisfied with the results submitted by the second department, his mood at this time was mixed. Now Huang could finally empathize with the brigade commander and director.

The reason for the joy is naturally that there are several talented comrades in the bureau who can independently develop new weapons without the need for their superiors to worry about it.

The reason for the worry is also very simple. The research and development of new aircraft is too expensive. Even a training aircraft with relatively low technical difficulty.

Shan Wenbao came to the office with such a large amount of information. It was obvious that he was here to apply for research funding.

The facts were just as Huang He thought. After his director put down the information, the other party directly said:

"We have completed the tasks assigned by the bureau. The design work is going very smoothly. The version you just saw has been verified by all the researchers of the Second Department."

"Now we are just short of three piston engines. We need to help our department implement this as soon as possible."

"The dozen or so men are all looking forward to starting construction as soon as possible. Why don't you try contacting the north and see if there is any way to get three units?"

After saying this, Shan Wenbao paused, with a rare expression of embarrassment on his face.

"There is also the matter of the wind tunnel. The second department needs that thing very much. How about the bureau approves another fund for us!"

Huang He closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose. The barrage of demands gave him a headache.

The border area will indeed grant some hard currency to the Weapons Experimental Research Bureau on a regular basis, but the money is always not enough.

Propeller aircraft have an extremely simple structure.

Theoretically, just plug a piston engine into the aircraft casing and add some simple instruments and you're done.

Moreover, the essential difference between aircraft engines and car engines is not big. In this era, the former has multiple cylinders arranged in a circle, while the latter are mostly arranged in a line.

It can be said that as long as the car engine can be built well, then the aircraft engine will definitely not be bad.

Building engines is not difficult for other countries, because they have their own civilian automobile companies, and they have quite a lot of experience in this regard.

Once the war starts, migrant workers come up with design plans and can transform into military industry as long as they receive orders for weapons.

For those who don’t know, they would never guess what companies on the market actually produced during World War II.

Just like Rolls-Royce in the UK, BMW and Mercedes-Benz in Santoku, and General Motors and Ford in China, the development of the air force cannot be separated from the technological accumulation and accumulation of private enterprises.

But there is nothing in the border area, and the current ability is to build bicycles. The Jiefang brand will have to wait until 15 years later.

Here we have to rely on migrant workers to lay the foundation for the development of the military industry, which is basically a no-brainer.

The wind tunnel issue also needs to be resolved as soon as possible. During his stay in the southeast Shanxi base, Shan Wenbao once used the gravity effect to fix the aircraft model on the rope pulley and move it downward.

The conditions for use of this equipment are quite limited, and it is difficult to measure the force on the model.

After arriving at the border area, he used the resources at hand to build a low-speed wind tunnel.

Compared with the wind tunnels of those military powers, the ones in the border areas are definitely much simpler. After all, there is not even a return loop, so it is difficult to measure the pressure distribution of various airfoils, streamlined fuselages and aircraft components.

But this is the best result at hand, and it is somewhat helpful for aircraft design.

A small half of the funds had been spent on these two things. As director Huang He now wanted to pawn his pants for money.

"Okay, I understand the situation. But you have to give me some time. I will contact the Second Department as soon as I have a clue about this matter."

"Put aside the work on the trainer aircraft for now, and now focus on designing a glider."

"good!"

After he was the only one left in the office, Huang He concentrated on turning on the Awakening Yonghu system in his brain.

The last decision "Border Area Aircraft Manufacturing Bureau" was successfully unlocked a week ago. The researcher-level senior engineer who came with the information was amazing and overcame many problems in just one week.

They also put a lot of effort into designing the three types of trainer aircraft.

Next, as long as the second department has the ability to produce key components, the task of independently developing and producing junior, intermediate and high-level training aircraft can be successfully completed.

When it came to parts and components, Huang He immediately turned his attention to new decisions.

"Domestic fighter jet manufacturing: As our workers have become familiar with how to carry out basic maintenance work, we can now proceed to manufacture all the parts required for modern fighter jets.

Effect: After 60 days, the military factory in the system is allowed to produce the Hawker Hurricane fighter jet, and the full set of production lines and design drawings of the fighter jet are obtained.

After 180 days, you will gain access to all RAF fighter jets and close support aircraft.

Note: Fighters include heavy fighters, but exclude Gloucester Meteor and de Havilland Vampire.

If you want to unlock the jet fighter, you also need to unlock other pre-research projects and decisions.

Enabled manufacturer: Aviation Industry Chengfei.

Effect: The aircraft production speed of the military factory in the system: +15%, fighter maneuverability: +5%; air attack: +10%, heavy fighter reliability: +20%, tactical bomber reliability: +20%."

To be honest, the results of the new decision are quite surprising.

The first is that the military factories in the system can produce new fighter jets. The system has given a certain number of Fighters and Spitfires successively. Huang He thought that the new decision would give hundreds of Hurricanes.

Unexpectedly, this time he was so generous and directly granted production permission.

Although the growth in strength is not obvious in a short period of time, the production capacity of the military factories in the four systems can produce a hurricane in one day.

Huang He has a total of seventeen in his hands, plus the production bonus brought by the decision, which means that there is a production of six aircraft every day.

This number will increase in the future. From a long-term perspective, production rights will definitely be more cost-effective.

Don't look at various information that the Royal Air Force's Hurricanes were severely beaten by the Japanese. This data also needs to take into account the reasons for the pilots.

At that time, whether it was the Army Air Force or the Hainan Air Force, the Japanese were unscrupulously using the blood of Republic of China soldiers and civilians for actual combat training. It is not an exaggeration to say that each of them was rich in experience.

For World War II fighter pilots, having a little experience made a huge difference.

It is no exaggeration to say that inadequately trained and inexperienced pilots took to the skies.

If you can tell whether the surrounding aircraft are friends or foes in the first battle, and where your lead aircraft is, you are considered a genius among geniuses.

Putting aside the driving experience, the performance of the Hurricane is generally very good. In the future, it can barely compete with the Japanese Falcon in Southeast Asia.

Several of its important parameters are between those of the P-40 and the Type-1 Falcon. It even has advantages over the P-40 in terms of hovering and climb rate. It is definitely enough to fight against the Type 97 fighter.

The production lines and drawings provided by the decision-maker were a timely help to the Second Section and the Military Industry Bureau.

The production capacity of everything from landing gears to engines gives the two departments in the border area the qualifications to go deep into the aviation field.

As the saying goes, five years for the army, ten years for the air force, and one hundred years for the navy.

The current starting point of the border area is much higher than before. You must know that in 1941, there were not many countries in the world that could independently produce fighter jets.

Although it takes half a year to unlock all fighter jets and close support aircraft.

But the time spent and waiting for this is definitely worth it. When the time comes, Huang He can use the scientific research slot to unlock eight aircraft of these three types.

Huang He was trembling with excitement at the thought that the army's air force would have a variety of aircraft in the future.

These weapons are the result of decades of research and development by Dai Ying. The Royal Air Force in this era has not taken any detours.

The Chou people spent their days trying to find thicker and bigger engines, and San Dezi trained all the workers at the aircraft engine factory to become masters of craftsmanship.

Maozi just installed the engine directly on the logs and got a new one for free in fifty hours.

Benzi has been researching giving clenbuterol to fighter jets all day long, and he wishes he could remove one of the pilot's thighs to lose weight.

In contrast, Dai Ying's technology is more suitable for the current number of routes in the border area. Even these piston propeller fighters will definitely be eliminated in future wars.

However, valuable data and information can save the motherland's R\u0026D personnel from making many detours, not to mention that this system has not failed to unlock the scientific research and decision-making of jet fighters.

After turning off the system, Huang He suddenly laughed out loud.

Fighter, Hurricane and Spitfire, these three brothers are the protagonists and supporting characters in Air Battle of Britain.

In the air battle at Zhongtiao Mountain three months later, there was a high probability that the Spitfires and Hurricanes would be responsible for intercepting the escorting fighters, while the Fighters and a small number of Hurricanes would be responsible for attacking the bombers.

Isn’t this the Asian version of Battle of Britain?

Coupled with the Republic of China version of the Maginot Line, this North China battlefield becomes more and more like the European Western Front.

It's just that this time the defenders are no longer fighting alone, they have a strong reinforcement and an unexpected support.

The air is not the enemy's home ground either. The Eighth Route Army's air force, which is more numerous and of higher quality, will deal a heavy blow to the Japanese who wantonly act recklessly in North China.

Speaking of the upcoming war, Huang He immediately thought of Commander Li who was training.

"Old Li, you have to fight for your reputation. You must have a good debut and show off with the Air Force!"
