Chapter 1,202 A simple first flight(1/2)

Now, it is about showing off the technology to the big dogs. In the past, the big dogs had to compare and choose to see whether the technology in the East is stronger or the technology in the United States is more advanced. After all, the big dogs have a high vision and the technology is too low.

They didn't like it and the price dropped.

What now?

Don’t look at it now, just choose Dongfang’s technology, because Dongfang’s technology is the strongest!

"The radar antenna is attached to the surface of the aircraft? Isn't this too high-end?" The officers following Salman were immediately shocked.

"Yes, this is the most advanced technology in the world. If it is a general customer, we would not be willing to sell it to them. Only you are our best friend, so we will sell the most advanced technology to you.

"

In recent years, the big dogs and the Americans have gradually drifted apart. The Oriental products equipped by the big dogs have never been exposed to Americans. Even if they were exposed, it would be of no use because Americans cannot imitate them.

Take this conformal antenna as an example. Americans can produce individual T/R components, and Americans can certainly produce aircraft skins. However, it is difficult to combine the two because of the

If the positions are different, it is difficult to integrate them into a whole, and there are complex functional relationships in them.

The Americans can't do it, but the East can, because we have advanced computers, first-class programmers, enterprising spirit, and low R&D costs.

Each one is important, but the last one is especially important.

Many times, it's not that the United States is unable to develop advanced equipment, but the development funds are so expensive that it is unable to carry out a large amount of research. For the Americans to build Ford-class aircraft carriers, the research and development funds reached an incredible 3.2 billion.

, with this money, we can already start building two or three ships.

Low research and development expenses and low manufacturing costs are the reasons for Dongfang's explosive equipment.

Of course, when selling to foreign customers, you have to follow the market price.

At this time, looking at the plane in front of them, countless people were filled with emotion. Eastern technology is so advanced!

"The United States also has tilt-rotor aircraft. It made its first successful flight in 1989. It has only recently begun to officially equip its troops. Is this tilt-rotor aircraft developed by Dongfang more advanced than the American technology? How reliable is it?"

The worries of big dog owners are justified. After all, the technology of this kind of aircraft is very difficult and the Americans have been working on it for so many years.

"Of course, our tilt-rotor aircraft is one generation ahead of the American technology." Qin Tao said: "Everyone knows that the American tilt-rotor aircraft rotates the engine as a whole, so it is very complicated to adjust. Once something special happens,

It is difficult to respond in time to any situation. Our tilt-rotor aircraft only rotates the propeller. It can respond quickly no matter what situation it encounters, and its reliability has been greatly improved. From development to now, it has never crashed."

Qin Tao had to make them give up their doubts, and he also had this confidence: "We are already more experienced than the Americans in terms of vertical take-off and landing aircraft. Our J-31A completed its first flight many years ahead of the United States.

, the standardized equipment for the troops has been exported to many countries, and there have never been any major problems. Looking at the Americans, they have taken a tortuous path. In recent years, they are said to have given up on flying toads and switched to our solutions. They have even been trying

Steal our technology."

The big business owners nodded. Yes, they are using vertical take-off and landing fighter jets, which are indeed very reliable. Moreover, the Americans do want to get access to these aircraft, or even steal them.

Although Dongfang developed this tilt-rotor aircraft later, with accumulated experience, Dongfang's tilt-rotor aircraft will become more mature and reliable!

"Our aircraft has just been refitted and today is its first flight." Qin Tao said, "This is the first time that we will show it to everyone. This is also because we have the confidence."

Thanks to these big business owners, with them as an excuse, Qin Tao felt more confident when he went back to face his father-in-law. Some customers came and they wanted to see it, so I showed it to them. Isn't this just for selling money? You

Don't criticize me, you have to praise me!

"First flight?" Salman sighed with emotion: "We caught up with the first flight. We are so lucky. I have two flight watches here, which I will give to the heroes of the first flight."

After speaking, Salman waved his hand, and his adjutant took out two small boxes.

"Where is Li Can?" Qin Tao asked.

"On the plane, making preparations for takeoff." Xu Zhengyang replied.

"Tell her to come down and bring her gifts to heaven!"

Li Can and his assistant got off the plane and looked at a large group of guests without any stage fright.

"Report to Mr. Qin that the pre-flight preparations have been completed and can take off at any time. Please give instructions!"

"This foreign friend gives you a small gift. I hope you can take this gift to heaven."

"Yes." Li Can didn't think it was anything. It was probably Mr. Qin who was selling the other party's favor. However, when he took the box and opened it, a bright golden light suddenly appeared inside, making Li Can's eyes go into a trance.

Gold watch?

Watches are used to tell time. Although the era has long entered an era where everyone has a mobile phone, in many cases it is more convenient to hold a mobile phone than to raise your wrist to read a watch. Especially pilots must wear a watch.

There are many devices in the aircraft, such as GPS, cockpit clock, etc., which can indicate the time. However, what if all these devices fail together? Pilots need a timing tool that is completely independent of these devices, that is, a professional pilot watch.

.

Pilot watches have many special requirements. They must be able to withstand strong vibrations, huge positive and negative accelerations, and drastic changes in pressure and temperature. Therefore, a reliable movement is a must.

At the same time, if the pilot wants to see the instrument display clearly at a glance, he must have a large dial and thick luminous hands. Therefore, flight watches are generally very large. At the same time, because there are many instruments in the cockpit, in order to avoid

Magnetization, flight watches also require special anti-magnetic design, which makes flight watches expensive, so that some celebrities like to wear flight watches to show their financial resources.

However, the watch in front of you is different. It is made of gold, and every number on the dial is carved with diamonds. Such a watch is absolutely priceless!

Li Can could tell at a glance that the watch was expensive, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Why, you can't even say thank you?" Qin Tao looked at Li Can and Li Can with a smile.

"Mr. Qin, this watch..."

"Wear it, this is given to you by the guest. Wearing it, you can also get good luck from the guest. I am here waiting for your first flight to be successful!"

This mission was considered a private mission. When Li Can came here, she slowly understood that it was Mr. Qin who called them here. However, she had no complaints about being able to fly such an advanced aircraft. Now, she has received such a precious

Gift.

"Yes, then let's accept it first." Li Can knew that there was no need to worry too much now. When the first flight is completed, the worst case scenario would be handing it over.

After saying that, the two asked Commander Ouyang for instructions and then returned to the cockpit.

"This plane is really nice. I want to get on it and experience it." Salman murmured to the side.

"It won't work this time, let's wait until later." Qin Tao said, "We have plenty of opportunities."

When you make your own purchases and sit wherever you want, don't let anything happen to us. You will be in big trouble by then.

Salman looked at Qin Tao: "Mr. Qin, aren't you very confident in this aircraft?"

Xu Zhengyang was a little worried on the side. He knew Qin Tao's character. Maybe Qin Tao would go up in the next moment. Yes, I am confident, let's go up together! At that time, Xu Zhengyang could not persuade him.

Fortunately, Qin Tao didn't do that. He smiled: "Yes, I am confident, but professional matters should be left to professionals."

"Attention, get ready to start the engine, everyone, stay back!"

When the helicopter takes off, the rotor will stir up huge airflow, and there will be flying sand and rocks below. This tilt-rotor aircraft is more powerful. Although the playground has been cleaned, there is still a certain danger. If the aircraft does not fly and falls, then

It is even more dangerous, so everyone must retreat to a safe place.

"Let's go," Qin Tao said to Salman: "Let's go to the small building at the back and look out on the glass of the conference room on the top floor. It will be clearer."

"good."

The conference room on the top floor is so condescending that you can see everything on the playground clearly.

The propeller of the weird-looking airplane began to rotate slowly. The propeller, which was originally vertical in front of the engine, now slowly rotated to the top, and then started the engine.

A few wisps of smoke came out of the engine on the left, but strangely, the propeller on the right also started to rotate.

"The most terrible accident for this kind of aircraft is that one engine stalls, so there is a drive shaft in the middle to connect the two engines in parallel, so that if one of them stalls, the other one can also drive the propellers on both sides to rotate, just like a helicopter

." Qin Tao introduced to Salman.

Salman nodded repeatedly after hearing this. This kind of aircraft made by Dongfang is mature and reliable, and all kinds of accidents can be taken into consideration.

The other engine also started, and the propellers on both sides rotated faster. In front of everyone's eyes, it slowly pulled up. The entire take-off process was just like that of a helicopter.

The fuselage slowly rose, one meter, two meters...the fuselage was at the same height as everyone, and then, in front of everyone's eyes, the propeller disk began to slowly rotate forward.

This conversion is the most dangerous. The propeller must not only provide lift, but also provide forward power. After the aircraft flies forward, there will be updrafts on the wings. The combination of various complex airflows may cause an explosion at any time.

An accident occurred.

At this time, as the propeller disk slowly rotated, the plane began to fly forward and slowly left in front of everyone.

"Let's go to the roof!" Salman said.

The windows on the top floor still don't look very good. If you can go to the top, the view will be wider.

"I'm sorry, there are no steps on the roof of our building, so we have to climb the handrails on the wall." Qin Tao said.

Old buildings do not have stairs leading to the roof. The stairs go to the top floor. On the passage wall on the top floor, some U-shaped frames made of steel bars are inserted. When the roof needs to be repaired, just step on it.

In order to prevent naughty children from accidents, these steel bars are only on the upper half of the wall, and you have to stand on a stool or table when going up.

Salman can't go up, and it's dangerous to go up, after all, there are no guardrails on the roof.

"Okay." Salman looked at his size and knew that it was impossible for him to go up.

"We'll wait a moment, the plane will fly back."

What is being tested now is flight, especially take-off and landing. Therefore, after the tilt-rotor aircraft takes off, it switches to level flight, flies around for a circle and then returns.

Sure enough, before the words were finished, the plane appeared in the field of vision again. Salman and others continued to stare at the plane. When it almost reached the sky above the playground, its speed began to slowly decrease, and the propeller disk began to rotate upward, just as it had just.

The process is different, but the risk is greater.

Compared with takeoff, the flight transition during landing is more complicated because the horizontal speed needs to be reduced to zero during landing.
To be continued...
