Chapter 383:"The Great Aviator" Howard Hughes, and his P-04 Eagle!

Although the aircraft in front of me are all monoplanes, their wings are also covered with aluminum alloy panels and steel bars that strengthen the aircraft structure.

However, Zhang Xueming could see the problem with just one glance.

The strength of the fuselage is still not enough!

The installation position of the weapon is still unreasonable.

This aircraft still has a machine gun installed on the fuselage, not a parallel machine gun on the nose!

The biggest difference between later World War II aircraft and World War I aircraft is.

During World War II, aircraft had designed airborne machine gun link triggering devices!

Many people are curious about why a machine gun hits behind the propeller, but the bullet cannot break the propeller of their own plane!

It’s because of this linkage triggering device!

This is equivalent to a double safety, which requires the pilot to pull the trigger and the connecting rod trigger device to take effect at the same time.

The linked machine gun will fire.

In this way, each bullet will be fired through the gap between the rotation of the aircraft's propellers.

This is a very exquisite mechanical design!

But it requires a lot of calculations by engineers.

In fact, the production of every mechanical product is the product of compromise between designers and engineers.

Even if it is a fantastic design, it still requires engineers to implement it and manufacture it.

And this is why Zhang Xueming has been poaching senior engineers from Europe!

What I don’t lack most is ideas!

Now, we need the best engineers and workers!

Turn your ideas into actual products!

The aircraft in front of me looks very much like the product of future aircraft.

However, some of the shortcomings of biplanes are still maintained. how to say!

This aircraft is like a product of the transition period from a biplane to a monoplane.

It has evolved, but it has not completely evolved.

It is neither version 1.0 nor version 2.0!

This is fucking version 1.5!

"Sons of a bitch, don’t you know how to fly a plane?"

"Where are the tactical moves I want? Why don't you dare to do it?"

"Howard! This stunt is too dangerous!"

"If it's dangerous, I'll do it myself! You follow me to shoot!"

"But...Mr. Howard, we can't keep up with you!"

"FUCK! you are fired!"

While Zhang Xueming was thinking about how to improve the aircraft, suddenly there was a fierce quarrel behind him.

Zhang Xueming looked back.

He saw that the group of pilots who had just been flying in the sky had landed. One of them was the leader at first glance. He scolded several people.

At this moment, he seemed to feel eyes scanning him.

The wealthy young man named Howard immediately turned his head

"Hi work! Who are you, stay away from my white eagle!"

When Howard saw Zhang Xueming standing next to his plane, he was already furious and immediately started to rant subconsciously.

However,

"Click!"

Immediately afterwards, they saw the guards beside Zhang Xueming holding up Bobosha.

The last talent scout who dared to take action had his hands chopped off.

This person dared to criticize the young marshal. His tongue was cut off?

It was Zhang Xueming who stepped forward. Taking one step, he held down the muzzle of his subordinate's gun.

"Are you Howard? Did you design this plane?"

"That's natural, it's the P-04 White Eagle fighter jet that William Boeing and I designed together!"

???

William Boeing!

Zhang Xueming frowned when he heard this name

"William Boeing! Isn't this man the founder of the famous Boeing aircraft?"

"Are you friends with him?"

When he mentioned this, the handsome guy in front of him immediately raised his head:"Yes, he and I have been friends for many years! We have been discussing aircraft design issues with each other!"

Zhang Xueming nodded!

Anyone who can do research with a giant must also be a giant!

"So you are? ? ?"

"I? The handsome guy in front of him raised his chin:"Howard Hughes!""

Howard Hughes!

Zhang Xueming was stunned again, and then couldn't help but chuckle.

Fuck!

Not only did he see DiCaprio's"Cat and Mouse", but he also saw the original version of the movie"The Aviator"!

Yes, this is the person in front of him. Howard Hughes, the famous American entrepreneur and aviator!

His life can be described as a legend!

This man loved flying since he was a child. After inheriting a large sum of money from his father, he entered Hollywood in 1917 and established film and television company, and later even filmed the classic air combat movie"Hell's Angels"!

Then, he established his own aircraft company in 1932, and completed a 92-hour round-the-world flight in 1936!

By 1960, he sold his own stocks and made a direct arbitrage of US$500 million..Leave

Hollywood in style.

In the end, this man died in a private jet he designed at the age of 71!

This man’s life can be said to be a life of flying.

He and Boeing, Lockheed, Curtis, etc. Many of the founders of aircraft companies have very good personal relationships. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!) He is the kind of most powerful fancier in the aviation world!

Of course, it is not only his flying that will be talked about in later generations. Because he entered Hollywood earlier, he has the confidante of five Hollywood superstars.

The most outrageous thing is that these five female stars have all won Oscars or been nominated for Oscars.

Just like Leonardo DiCaprio, he only loves Victoria's Secret in his life. Supermodel!

This one is the Oscar-winning actress who I love the most in my life!

"Such talents...You have to dig it out yourself!"

However, before Zhang Xueming could think of how to recruit people,

Howard Hughes's eyes lit up at the assistant director's whisper.

"Are you Zhang Xueming, the Butcher of the Far East?"

"Great, I want to ask you a question!"

"The outside world says that there is a special kind of aircraft in your fighter group that can scream like a devil! Not only that, it can also fly at a height of less than 10 meters close to the sea?"

"Is it true?"

For a pilot.

What is more attractive than a brand-new high-performance aircraft that has never been seen before?

Seeing that he hasn't even set the hook yet!

The man bit it by himself. Zhang Xueming smiled slightly.

"There is indeed such an aircraft. I call it the 227 Jingwei! According to functional classification, it is a medium-sized dive bomber!"

"Medium, dive bomber?"

"right! The fuselage is 11 meters long, has a maximum takeoff weight of 5 tons, and has a 1,200-horsepower liquid-cooled V12 engine!"

"This level is usually considered a medium bomber!"

????

Hearing Zhang Xueming say the parameters of the Stuka.

This Howard Hughes's eyes suddenly widened!

"impossible! Absolutely impossible! 1,200 horsepower, even God couldn’t do it!"

"You must be lying!"

The parameters of the Stuka bomber were simply alien technology in the eyes of Howard Hughes.

Zhang Xueming smiled slightly.

It is now 1917, so of course you can't do it.

But our aircraft comes from 15 years later, in 1932!

At that time , technology is changing with each passing day, coupled with the efforts of countless designers in Germany.

Wasn't this Stuka also saved?

So, Zhang Xueming smiled at the corner of his mouth and took half a step forward!

"There is an old saying in the Xia Kingdom: Hearing with ears is false, seeing with eyes is believing! If you don’t believe it, you can follow me back to the Far East and have a look!"

Howard's eyes lit up.

"Is it really possible?"

Look!

We, Mr. Zhang, are not poaching you to go to the Northeast!

You want to go to the Northeast! You want to go there yourself!
