Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

Chapter 461 MiG-15 and F-86

When Kurt Tank and Ant Bollman heard this, they both nodded in agreement. Seeing this, Fang Lang continued to speak to them:

"Both of you are senior experts on aircraft. You must be familiar with the missiles that appeared in the later stages of the war!"

As Fang Lang said this, he took a look at the furnishings in the office and found that there was no rest area where he could sit down and receive guests. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Even if he wanted to have a cup of tea, there was none.

Ant Polman is a very discerning guy. Although he was listening carefully to Fang Lang's words, his eyes still noticed Fang Lang's movements. When he saw Fang Lang swallowing his saliva, he understood that Fang Lang must be...

Thirsty.

He quickly turned around and opened the office door, saying hello to the outside and asking someone to bring him a cup of tea.

When Fang Lang saw this, he quickly waved his hands and said:

"I think what I'm going to talk about now may have a great impact on your future design direction. Why don't we simply organize all aircraft designers?

Call Mr. Horton together, find a conference room, and talk about this issue.

By the way, let me tell you another reason why I came here this time."

Hearing this, Ant Bollman and Kurt Tank looked at each other, nodded and said:

"No problem, boss, then I will arrange for someone to clear out the conference room. Professor Tan Ke, could you please help organize the colleagues in the design department, and we will gather in the conference room together."

Kurt Tank nodded cheerfully, told Fang Lang to wait a moment, turned around and went out, notifying everyone in the design room outside to go to the conference room for a meeting.

Moreover, according to the slightly vague impression in my memory, these two fighter jets seem to have been developed based on a German swept-wing fighter project. Now it seems that the object they are referencing is obviously the one in front of them.

ta-183.

The two fighters also have their own advantages and disadvantages in terms of specific performance. First of all, in terms of weapons, the MiG-15 has three cannons: one H-37 cannon and two HC-23KM cannons, which can carry 200 rounds.

Cannonballs.

The MiG-15 does not have a radar device, so in terms of avionics system comparison, the F86 definitely has the advantage.

Soon a codename came into Fang Lang's mind: the F-86 jet fighter nicknamed the Sabre.

With just one glance, he discovered that the drawing drawn by Fang Lang was an improvement on his TA-183, and there were two long wing blades on the wings of this aircraft.

"You guy, when did you come here and why didn't you say anything?"

Fang Lang, who was concentrating on looking at the drawings, was startled by the sudden voice next to him. When he turned around and saw that it was Kurt Tank, he said dissatisfied:

After hearing Fang Lang's words, Kurt Tank did not fly into a rage as Fang Lang expected, and loudly cursed the Soviet Union and the United States for their shameless plagiarism. Instead, he appeared very calm and stared at the drawings on the table without blinking.

In general, these two jet fighters from the same family have their own advantages and disadvantages. In subsequent actual combat, the exchange ratio between MiG-15 and F-86F was 1:1.17, which was basically a draw.

Kurt Tank touched his nose and said sheepishly:

"I've been here for a while. I saw how seriously you were drawing pictures, so I didn't want to disturb you."

Hearing this, Kurt Tank nodded seriously and said:

"Then please tell me, boss Xinxin, what you know about the two aircrafts. We can also find some lessons from them."

However, in actual combat, the MiG 15's 37 mm machine gun can easily penetrate the F-86's aircraft armor, while the F86's 12.7 mm machine gun is obviously unable to cause fatal damage to the MiG 15.

"Mig 15, F-86, are these the models you ordered for these two aircraft?"

After looking at it for a while, he couldn't help but turn his attention to another drawing that Fang Lang was drawing. Obviously, both aircraft used a swept-wing design.

I didn't think of it at the moment. After you left, I looked at the drawings and recalled them carefully. I drew an appearance based on the rough appearance in my memory.

Your design department can use it as a reference."

Moreover, I can responsibly tell you that these two aircraft must be very good models, and if nothing else happens, both models should complete their first flights this year."

"I only have some basic understanding, such as the weapon systems of the two aircraft and their approximate performance, but I have no way of knowing the specific parameters."

Following the communication with Kurt Tank just now, when Fang Lang observed again, he couldn't help but transfer the idea of ​​adding a movable mechanism to the front of the wing that he had just thought of to the aircraft in front of him.

Of course, it can carry 908 kilograms of bombs or eight 5-inch 127 mm unguided rockets. When it comes to the H type, it will be changed to four 20 mm caliber aerial cannons.

Then he pointed at the F-86 drawing and said:

As a professional, he discovered at a glance that this was a very excellent fighter aircraft, but he didn't know what the specific performance parameters could achieve.

Of course, some people will say that there are rockets on the F86, but the rockets of this period are unguided, which means whether they can hit after being launched mainly depends on luck.

I just thought that the slimmed-down version of this aircraft is the MiG-15. As the first-generation jet fighter of the Soviet Union, what is the American jet fighter that corresponds to the MiG-15 and can compete with it?

What about one?

After seeing the two of them go out, Fang Lang didn't mind and just continued to stand in front of the design drawing with his arms crossed and continued to observe other details.

It is obviously impossible to fully reflect the appearance data of the two aircraft, but with a rough appearance, your company's designers can have a good reference.

This surprised Kurt Tank, and he looked at Fang Lang with burning eyes.

But as a fighter jet, with a cannon as its main weapon and fighting within visual range, it is not enough to simply have an advantage in avionics.

"This jet fighter, code-named MiG-15, is the first-generation jet fighter designed and manufactured by the Soviet Union's Mikoyan Design Bureau."

Finally, after Fang Lang completed the drawings of both aircraft, he checked them carefully and found no major flaws, then marked the models of the two aircraft on the upper right side of the drawings.

After saying that, he pointed to the drawings on the table and asked:

"Boss, did you just design this?"

However, the entire fuselage has been slimmed down, making it look much slender.

The first-generation F86 was equipped with six Browning M2HB 12.7 mm machine guns, and the bullets from the six machine guns would converge at one point 1,000 feet away from the nose of the aircraft.

This made Kurt Tank, who was watching on the sidelines, a little confused, and couldn't help but ask:

After gaining this understanding, Fang Lang's first thought was whether he could combine the two aircraft to create a new fighter aircraft with its own characteristics and advantages.

But this is just a rough drawing based on my own impressions. The specific data such as the swept wing angle or the vertical tail angle are inaccurate.

I changed my mid-monoplane to a low-monoplane, and the height of the horizontal tail was also lowered, but I have to say that the designs of both aircraft are very excellent.

He slowly asked:

"This jet fighter, code-named F-86, was developed by North American Aviation for the U.S. Air Force. It is the first swept-wing jet fighter. If my expectations are correct, both of these fighter jets should be from

Inspiration from your ta-183.

In fact, there is not much difference in the layout of the air inlets between the two fighters. They are both located directly in front of the nose. Compared with the MiG 15, which is slightly rougher and takes up almost the entire nose of the large air inlet, the F86 is obviously

Be more polite.

As for the face-controller Fang Lang, which one is more beautiful, the MiG-15 or the F86? Needless to say, he personally would definitely choose the F86. The reason why he thinks the F86 is more beautiful is because the MiG-15’s big nostrils really don’t fit.

Fang Lang's aesthetics.

Secondly, in terms of maneuverability, the MiG-15 is not as good as the F86 in terms of horizontal hovering, dive acceleration, etc. However, due to its large thrust-to-weight ratio and outstanding climbing performance, the MiG-15 has an overwhelming advantage over the F86 in terms of vertical maneuverability.

.

As he spoke, he pointed at the drawing of the MiG-15 and said:

As for why the air inlet of the F86 is smaller and placed lower on the nose, the reason is also very simple, because an air search radar is installed on the nose of the F86, which moves the air inlet down to become a mandibular type.

The air intake makes room for the installation of the radar.

What does this fighter plane look like? Thanks to the strong memory brought to him by his rebirth, the image of this fighter plane emerged in his mind little by little, and slowly the image of the entire fighter plane became completely three-dimensional.

Moreover, this aircraft uses a different wing and tail layout from our own TA-183 and the aircraft in the previous drawing. If the former one is a slimmed down version of our own aircraft, the latter one can be regarded as

A major overhaul has been carried out to a certain extent.

As soon as he entered the door, he found Fang Lang lying on his desk drawing pictures. The words he was about to say were swallowed back, and his eyes were involuntarily attracted to the drawings on Fang Lang's desk.

"Boss, are you familiar with these two models?"

The time for drawing passed very quickly. Just when he finished drawing the MiG-15 drawing, Kurt Tank had already gathered everyone and walked into the office, preparing to call Fang Lang for a meeting.

Although Fang Lang didn't know much, these two aircraft models were actually still under high confidentiality. Even after the United States suffered a heavy loss from the MiG-15 in the subsequent Peninsular War, it tried every means to think of a new one.

I have tried to figure out some situations of the MiG-15, but I have not been able to do so.

Then, comparing the flight speed, the MiG-15 reaches a flight speed of Mach 0.87-0.88, which is Mach 0.78 that can completely crush the F86.

Fang Lang shook his head gently and said:

Therefore, in comparison, the MiG-15 has an advantage in terms of weapons.

Looking at Kurt Tank who looked surprised, Fang Lang quickly waved his hand and said:

"How do I have this ability? This is what I just thought about. When I went to the United States some time ago, I saw these two types of aircraft that also use swept wings from a confidential document of the US military.

As for the one that Fang Lang is drawing, there is no wing blade protruding from the wing surface. There is an obvious separated downward part in a small section in front of the wing.

He did whatever he wanted to do, and while the other two were convening a meeting outside, he picked up a pencil and blank drawing paper from the table, spread it out on the desk, and began to briefly draw the MiG-15 and

Outline drawing of F86.

It was not until two months after the end of the Peninsula War that a MiG-15 from the north strayed into the south and was intercepted by the United States. It was immediately sent back to the United States for research as if it were a treasure. But this time is of little significance.

Therefore, the situation that Fang Lang grasps now is actually far more significant than what he thinks. The experience that Kurt Tank can learn from Fang Lang's description is beyond Fang Lang's imagination.

As Fang Lang narrated, Kurt Tank took out his notebook and recorded bit by bit, which will bring huge help to his subsequent design work.

The two of them chatted in the office for more than ten minutes without knowing it. It wasn't until Fang Lang explained everything he knew clearly that Kurt Tank closed the notebook with unfinished content.
