The Third Reich

Chapter 892: ME 262 in service

Messerschmitt aircraft assembly plant in Augsburg, Germany.

A peculiarly shaped airplane appeared at the end of the production line. At this time, many people had gathered here, including the high-level German and air force.

Cyric stood in front of the plane. At this time, a big red flower was picked up on the plane. Under the shining of the light, the aluminum alloy skinned aircraft shone.

If compared with other airplanes, the biggest feature of this airplane is that it has no propellers!

Since the invention of the airplane, the propeller is a necessary equipment. The propeller agitates the air and blows it backwards to obtain forward power. This has been deeply rooted in everyone's impression.

However, the times are constantly changing, and technology is constantly innovating. As the speed of aircraft continues to increase, propellers will eventually become a stumbling block on the way forward.

It will bring more resistance. The current propeller aircraft has developed to the extreme, and the speed cannot be increased. The tip of the propeller has encountered a huge problem called the sound barrier.

If you want to continue to improve, you must improve the new program, this is the jet!

After a long test flight in Libya, finally, Messerschmitt’s latest fighter has passed various certifications and started mass production. Now, it is the off-line ceremony of the first ME262 fighter!

After the BF109, Messerschmitt has been in obscurity. It has been at a disadvantage in the competition with the FW190, so that even the Air Force has reduced the order for the BF109. Only those who know the insider know that Messerschmitt is accumulating. , Now, it's time for results!

Professor Willie Messerschmidt was extremely excited this day. He was wearing a woolen uniform with a sleeve with a 4D sign on his arm. At this time, he looked at this ex-flight fighter. It's like his child.

How many repeated revisions did it take to finally get the approval of the military, the approval of the head of state, and finally the production? This will be a fighter that will completely change the situation of air combat!

"Today, we have a great moment." Cyric stood in front of the plane and started his speech.

"When all countries were still using biplanes, we had already used monoplanes, and when they were still making wooden planes, we were already using aluminum alloys. Today, we are in the forefront of the world. When they were still chasing us on the propeller plane, we had already used jet fighters!"

"Higher and faster are the goals pursued by every aircraft designer and every pilot. Propeller aircraft will eventually become obsolete, and the future belongs to the jet age!" Cyric is extremely affirmative of its own aircraft: "Now, as this first aircraft rolls off the assembly line, our newly formed test wing will be controlled by the most experienced pilots to control its flight and formulate combat plans. At the same time, the later fighter groups will gradually change. Install jets!"

"Not only fighters, but in the future, we will also have jet bombers, transport aircraft, and our technology is the most advanced of this era. No enemy can stop the expansion of our Third Reich!" Cyric's last words were sonorous. Powerful.

Everyone present applauded. They admired Cyric, the man who created the European empire in one hand.

In the eyes of everyone, Adolf Garland, the director of the Luftwaffe fighter unit, put on a full set of flying equipment and prepared to pilot this advanced jet personally, taking off from the runway outside the factory and flying directly to the air base.

The fighter plane was slowly towed to the outside runway. With the help of the ground power vehicle, the engines on both sides were started. In the rumble sound, the two engines suspended from the wings started one after the other, and a hot tail emerged from the tail. The smoke, like a torch, accelerated on the runway and flew into the sky with an agile attitude.

"It's as light as a swallow." Cyric exclaimed.

Cyric didn't know, but with his own words, he nicknamed the plane. In the flying unit, everyone used to call it the swallow.

This is a new beginning!

As the fighter plane flew away, Cyric and his group walked to the meeting room in the office area next to him. This time Cyric came here to inspect. The first item was to participate in the off-line and first flight ceremony, and the second, This is the meeting.

"Now, we have made a breakthrough in jet aircraft, but we still have a long way to go. We are just the beginning in the jet aircraft field." Cyric said.

Cyric’s words have won everyone’s approval. Indeed, there are still many imperfections in jets~www.wuxiaspot.com~ First of all, it is the engine. This requires our technicians to continue to work hard to improve the performance of the engine. Especially the life of the engine. "No matter it is a fighter jet of any era, the first problem is the engine!

The current ME262 uses Junker’s Jumo004. After continuous improvement, this engine has a life of 100 hours. After all, unlike the later generations of Germany, they are not limited to raw materials. As long as they can be used, they You can go.

Even this is not enough. After all, for fighter jets, they need to take off frequently. Based on the calculation of 5 hours a day, it will not be used for a month, so the engine has to be changed.

You know, the life of a piston engine is often thousands of hours.

"Yes, our engine performance is still very poor, and we will continue to work hard." Dr. Anselen of Juncker is the chief designer in charge of the jet project. He knows the defects of his engine, the head of Cyrenk. It is absolutely correct.

However, he did not expect that the next words of Führer Cyric would be even more professional.

"Our design department can absorb British-thinking and reliable engine designers, and gather all the strength, so that it may be able to collide with more sparks." Cyric said.

After all, the United Kingdom is an old industrial country with a deep heritage. In fact, their jet engines have already been developed.

The key figures on the British jet engine, officer Frank Whittle, and Dr. A? A? Griffith from the University of Liverpool are all important figures. Thanks to Reinhardt's efforts, these people did not leave the UK.

Even if they do not cooperate, their design materials and their prototypes cannot be taken away. This will give Germany more inspiration.

What Cyric pointed out is certainly not wrong!
