Qin Tao was very proud, but when he said this, a reporter not far away who was taking photos of this power system had a different view: "The most mature vertical take-off and landing fighter in the world is the Sea Harrier.

, shouldn’t the 32, which is developed on the basis of the Sea Harrier, be the best?”

Qin Tao looked at the reporter over there with some surprise: "Are you familiar with these?"

"Yes, I am Reuben Johnson, a special correspondent for Jane's Defense Weekly. I went to Boeing for an interview last month. Their 32 had already been tested at the end of last year, much earlier than your aircraft.

, Moreover, the United States has strong scientific and technological strength, how can the products they develop cannot be better than yours? As far as engines are concerned, currently only the United States in the world has a jet engine with a thrust-to-weight ratio of 10!"

Among the global military magazines, Jane's Defense Weekly is definitely the most influential. Although it was first published in 1984, a British man named Jane Redtane published the famous "Jane's Battleship Manual" long before World War I.

Up to now, Jane's has become a cross-border military strategic information analysis company controlled by a Canadian company. It owns a series of well-known military information magazines, including "Jane's Defense Weekly" and "Jane's Defense Weekly".

Warships, Jane's Global Aircraft, Jane's Intelligence Review and Jane's Foreign Affairs Report are just media outlets, but because their information analysis has always been regarded as authoritative among Western media and governments, the magazines are still very expensive.

There is no shortage of users, and their databases are widely purchased by governments and intelligence agencies of various countries.

Even if it is to label this agency as a spy, it is very appropriate, and this agency does have a few tricks up its sleeve.

They don't have many regular employees, but they have a large number of special reporters. These reporters are very pervasive, have obtained a lot of professional information, and write very strong analytical articles.

Now that Reuben Johnson has recognized the person in front of him, of course he has to shout loudly to attract the other person's attention, and then extract some useful information from it to write a valuable article.

Qin Tao only took one look and knew what the other party was planning, but at this time, he couldn't encourage Boeing and tell Boeing that it was on the right track and continue research. He had to brag about his own aircraft.

"The engine is only one reason. There is a saying in the aviation field that as long as the engine is powerful, bricks can fly into the sky. In this regard, the United States is indeed the strongest, and we admire it." Qin Tao talked to the other party:

"However, this does not mean that we have no chance. The aircraft is a whole. If the engine is not good, we can make up for it through excellent aerodynamic layout. Regarding this point, we can compare the Mirage 2000 and 16, although the Mirage 2000 still uses a single rotor.

engine, but when it comes to flight performance, both sides have their own merits. Compared with air defense and interception, even the Mirage 2000 will be better."

If the power is not enough and the aerodynamics are not enough, we cannot give hope to countries with weak engines.

"Countries with powerful engines will lie on the engine and sleep, thinking that a good engine is enough. The aerodynamic layout is designed like a piece of shit. I'm sorry, please forgive my wording. The aerodynamic layout of a flying toad.

It’s really too bad.”

Reuben Johnson's heart was agitated. Okay, here's the subject. Mr. Qin of the Minzhou Group called Boeing's 32 a piece of shit! This will definitely be more likely to cause a reaction from Boeing!

"So, you think the design of this aircraft is excellent? But it has a conventional layout! Isn't the canard layout popular among third-generation aircraft now?"

"American aircraft designers are saying that the best canards are on enemy fighter jets. The canard layout will also greatly increase the radar reflection area. Of course, our fourth-generation aircraft must adopt a conventional aerodynamic layout."

Qin Tao retorted casually and dug a hole at the same time.

When the J-10 test flight is completed and the troops are finalized, the 611 Institute will start to develop a dual-engine heavy-duty stealth aircraft, using the canard layout. Now Qin Tao says this, he is deceiving the outside world, the canard layout cannot be invisible!

"Moreover, an aircraft with a canard layout must use a delta wing. The delta wing is very large and can hold a lot of fuel. Unfortunately, it cannot be folded." Qin Tao said: "Our aircraft must be carrier-based.

This is a carrier-based aircraft that cannot fold its wings. Wouldn’t it make people laugh if you tell it?”

The Flying Toad is very awesome. It has already begun test flights of its prototype. It uses either a canard wing or an ordinary delta wing structure. Therefore, Boeing engineers encountered a big problem: How can it get on the ship if the wings are not folded? If they are folded,

How to store fuel?

Looking around the world, there are very few carrier-based fighter jets that do not fold their wings. The Tomcat fighter jet does not fold, that is because they can sweep back and retract directly. The Rafale fighter does not fold, there is no way, the French have to turn the aircraft forward and backward.

Place them alternately, with the nose of the aircraft side by side and the tail of the aircraft next to it, to reduce the size.

What about Boeing? How do they plan to solve the flying toad's wing problem?

Of course it’s been completely revised!

Qin Tao looked at the reporter in front of him and made his own prediction: "I think that even if the 32 has made its first flight, it will still have to undergo a lot of modifications. After they modify it, the layout will change from a delta wing to a traditional one.

"

Reuben Johnson's eyes widened: "Mr. Qin, are you serious? For an aircraft, modifying the aerodynamic layout almost means tearing it down and starting over!"

"That's not my problem anymore. That's a headache for Boeing's technical staff."

Across the ocean, Boeing.

"The Air Force has officially made a judgment on our aircraft. They believe that our existing design has seriously insufficient lift." Designer Hudson's face was extremely ugly: "Damn it, we have already said that it is the engine.

The problem is, as long as the engine specially designed for this project arrives, our power will be no problem, and the take-off and landing characteristics will be greatly improved."

They were the first to fly, and the progress was the highest, but they didn't expect that they would encounter such a problem.

What to do if there is insufficient lift?

The only option is to significantly modify the wings!

They have always insisted that the engine is not powerful, and that the problem will be solved when a more powerful engine is available. However, those in the Air Force do not buy it.

"Then what do we do?"

"If we want to satisfy those people, we can only change the design and significantly modify the wing, from our original delta wing structure to a normal structure, reduce the main wing area, and add a horizontal tail."

The originally beautiful delta-wing fighter has become a conventional aerodynamic layout!

"Such modifications mean that all our projects have to be redone." Someone started to complain: "We have to re-blow the wind tunnel, we have to redesign the flight control software, and, as a result, our wing area is reduced

, will cause the fuel capacity to drop too much."

"Yes, these are big problems we have to face, but the good thing is that our opponents are also having a hard time, and their aircraft have encountered more problems." Hudson said.

"What? McDonnell Douglas is feeling uncomfortable too?"

"They have already begun experiments on the power system. The problem of deck ablation caused by the lift engine solution is almost unsolvable." Hudson said: "At present, McDonnell Douglas seems to be considering using the lift engine.

Change to a lift fan.”

What?
