What is the use of a vertical take-off and landing aircraft? It is mainly used to equip amphibious assault ships. If you look at the appearance, the full-scale flat-deck amphibious assault ships seem to be very similar to aircraft carriers, but their combat purposes are completely different.
Aircraft carriers are mainly used for attacks. Through the large number of weapons carried by carrier-based aircraft, they can be intercepted in the air, anti-ship, anti-submarine and so on.
The amphibious assault ship has only one purpose, and that is to land across the sea and project its forces to land through the equipment it carries.
Among them, there are two main types that can fly. One is jet fighters. With this kind of aircraft, you don’t need the help of an aircraft carrier. You can use jet fighters to suppress firepower and strike each other’s beachhead positions. , To create conditions for cross-sea landing.
The other type is the aircraft used to project troops. This type of aircraft, usually helicopters, directly engages in landing operations and invests a large number of troops.
Of course, this is only the air power on the amphibious assault ship, it may also have a large number of hovercraft, or amphibious tanks and other tools.
As for air weapons, domestic research and development have always been done. The jet fighter is the vertical take-off and landing fighter currently being developed by 6601. The amphibious assault ship cannot be equipped with a ski jump due to the area of the deck. The deck or catapult can only take off and land vertically.
The other is a helicopter. The larger the helicopter, the more troops it can be equipped with, and none of our existing helicopters are of this order of magnitude.
Therefore, the research and development of large helicopters is not only used to equip aircraft carriers, but will also be used to equip amphibious assault ships in the future. Moreover, as far as the situation in Han is concerned, such amphibious assault ships are more useful, because Han Its territory is still intact, and there is still a need to regain it. And this kind of large helicopter, in Qin Guan's eyes, is of course to be replaced by a tiltrotor.
It’s just that Qin Guan’s energy is limited and he can’t take care of too many aspects. Therefore, this kind of equipment has only been arranged and has not been followed up for several years. Now, I heard that good results have been achieved here, Qin Guan I was very satisfied, and immediately followed the young R&D team into the institute.
"For now, our main task is to study its operation mechanism." Xiao Xu said to Qin Guan: "Here, it is the result of our surveying and mapping imitation."
Qin Guan had already seen two tilt-rotor aircraft. One side was the V-22 Osprey that he had exchanged, and the other was the results of his own surveying and mapping simulation. However, when he saw the surveying and mapping results here, Qin Guan frowned, so small? The two are not a ratio at all.
The V-22 Osprey is the main tiltrotor aircraft of the Eagle Nation. Although there were various failures at the beginning, the performance has been very stable since then, especially in the war of the Mountain Nation. A large amount of materials are transported by this kind of aircraft, which shows good stability and is fully mature.
If you want to transport materials, you must have enough load. This kind of transport aircraft has a fuselage of about 20 meters, a rotor diameter of 11.6 meters, and a wingspan of 15 meters. Even if it is compared with a jet, it is enough to transport itself. Seven this level of regional aircraft standards.
This aircraft has a maximum short-distance take-off weight of 27 tons and a vertical take-off and landing weight of 21 tons. It can load up to 10 tons of goods, which is a good means of transportation.
But now, the imitation displayed in front of me is less than ten meters in length!
The entire fuselage is not as big as the Black Hawk. From a visual point of view, its maximum take-off weight is estimated to be less than ten tons. What is the use of this aircraft? Can the Black Hawk that our own surveying and mapping imitate can reach its transportation capacity?
"General Manager Qin, although this aircraft was simulated by our surveying and mapping, we have worked hard to master its technology, especially the most complicated tilt-rotor control technology. We even optimized the program and used our self-developed equipment. Instead, you can take a look inside our cabin."
Qin Guan entered the cabin with suspicion. It is only in the early 1990s. Most aircraft in most countries still have mechanical instruments inside. However, the domestic use of advanced electronic technology has realized the use of glass cockpits. The large amount of equipment of the system has also greatly improved the operation.
"We know that the most difficult operation is to switch between hovering and flying. We completely adopt computer control, and the onboard computer performs various calculations to ensure maximum safety." Xiao Xu said: "We are here. The aircraft has been tested for many times, and they have all been tested under unmanned conditions, without any problems at all."
Unmanned state! Hearing this, Qin Guan became interested. What does it mean? This kind of aircraft has the potential of drones.
"We can pre-program the flight control so that there is no need for the pilot's intervention, and then fly according to the procedures we have compiled. In the initial stage, this can also avoid the terrible consequences of a crash." Xiao Xu continued.
This is what young people like them can do. If they were old leaders, they would never adopt such a bold and radical plan.
Normal flight, there must still be people, but by that time, the safety has already been checked, and there is no problem at all, and normal manned flights will be twice the result with half the effort.
Qin Guan listened very carefully. After introducing the data one by one, Qin Guan couldn't help nodding: "That is to say, our current aircraft is only an experimental aircraft. After the experimental results are verified, can it be manufactured and that? Is an airplane the size of an airplane?"
Now this plane has too little load capacity, it is tasteless.
Hearing Qin Guan's question, Xiao Xu's face showed a dilemma: "Mr. Qin, we actually want to build such a large aircraft directly, but we don't have a qualified engine!"
Hearing this, Qin Guan was taken aback, thinking that they had built a small technical verification machine first. It turned out that it was because there was no engine.
Although we have achieved breakthroughs in fighter engines, there are still many shortcomings in China. For example, the engines used by bombers have not yet come to fruition.
And this kind of tilt rotor plane uses a different power system, it uses a turboshaft engine.
Compared with the eagle country and the bear country, which has a rich industrial heritage, we still have a lot of helplessness. We can only concentrate on researching and developing a few models, but it cannot be comprehensive. Therefore, without a qualified engine, there is no cooking. what.
"What we can use now is the engine on hand. After repeated calculations, we built a tiltrotor aircraft of this size. After all, the power is less than half."
