"Can this engine be mounted on a sabre?"

Yang Feng asked Henkel next to him.

"No problem, its thrust is much greater than the j35 used by the sword now, and its weight is even lighter. If installed on the sword, it will greatly increase all performance, but the intake amount it needs will also increase significantly."

Henkel said.

"This is simple, just add an auxiliary air intake, but this engine may have less thrust when used in the fighter we developed, right?"

"It's really small. If you want to push our tiger sharks, the minimum thrust must be more than five tons, and it's just normal thrust. If you want to achieve the maneuverability you require, you need at least seven tons or even more than eight tons of thrust, so that you can achieve a one-to-one thrust ratio in air combat."

"If you add an afterburner, how much thrust can this engine reach?"

Yang Feng asked the engineer.

“More than four tons.”

"That is, let our prototype perform the simplest test flight, barely be able to do it."

"Almost, without installing equipment such as gun radar, it is not a big problem to fly some simple movements, and it also takes time to build a prototype. This period of time is enough for us to improve it."

"Okay, next I will put this engine into production and wait for the drawings and accessories from the Americans to come here. You are responsible for modifying the design drawings to use this engine. Your task is to improve it and install the afterburner. All of them are taken. In short, at the end of this year, I will see the sword equipped with this engine going to the sky. At the end of next year, I will see the engine with the afterburner. The thrust of the engine can exceed four tons and be installed on my tiger shark prototype. There are rewards for completing the task. Remember that your boss is very rich and generous."

Yang Feng said to the leaders of his two teams.

The heads of these two teams are both Chinese, and the chief engineer of Tenglong Engine is Wu Zhonghua, whom Ye Qisun helped him pull him back from the United States. The couple brought him together. His wife Li Minhua is the head of the department at the School of Aeronautics Industry.

Although the person in charge of the aircraft design team is Henkel, his main work has actually been transferred from Xu Shunshou, who was brought to the bald man's Aircraft Research Institute by Ye Qisun. Although Ye Fengzi is not famous in science, his identity as the director of the Tsinghua Department of Physics makes his students so terrifying.

In fact, many Chinese scientists have been brought in over the years, including Chen Shengshen, who is also at Nanyang University. Now Yang Feng’s people are persuading Wu Jianxiong and her husband Yuan Jialiu to Nanyang University together. However, the identity of the Queen of Physics is sensitive and the US government has to nod. After all, she is involved in the Manhattan Project.

If her and her husband come over, Head Yang can set up his own atomic energy development agency and then find a uranium mine to get a centrifuge.

Everyone smiled at the words of Head Yang, including the British engineer. In the Ming Empire, the scientists were extremely respected. As long as a scientist with a doctorate degree, except for high salaries, they were all equipped with villas, high-end cars and even servants. Even if a foreigner came to work temporarily, as long as they came, they would first match this set and on the mountain with the best scenery in Yingtian Mansion. With this type of villa alone, Head Yang had built more than a thousand villas.

Not only that, they are respected in other aspects. Government officials and university professors appear in official places together, and government officials must fall behind half a step behind. This is what Yang Feng personally stipulates. He does this himself, and even the license plates of these professors are different. Government official vehicles, even military vehicles and police cars. When encountering such license plates, they must give way.

It is precisely because of this special respect that the Ming Empire, although it is far away in Nanyang, still makes scientists from all over the world yearn for infinite desires.

"Head of the People's Republic of China. Can you use your special materials when modifying the engine?"

When Yang Feng left, Wu Zhonghua caught up and asked.

Yang Feng's special materials, namely his titanium alloy and composite materials, each has a processing plant, both of which are in the military restricted area of ​​the nearby islands. Currently, they are only produced on a small scale, processing some aircraft parts to replace parts that need to be replaced on the Air Force fighter bomber, which can not only improve their performance but also train workers. However, this engine is jointly worked with the British. If used, it will be equivalent to letting them know these things, so Wu Zhonghua must ask.

"Don't use composite materials for the time being. Titanium alloy can be used at will. The Americans are also working on this thing and will be put into production in a few years. Moreover, if we want to complete the Conway engine in partnership with Britain, we must use this if we want to complete it according to the schedule. Also, I just opened a precision casting factory and used investment casting similar to the ancient lost wax method. You can take our people over to see it. You may need this technology. There are also several special machine tools with relatively high accuracy. You and Lao Xu go over and take a look. This is an electronically controlled linkage machine tool, which specializes in processing some special complex curved parts. The Americans may have just started developing it. We are unique within at least three to five years. This is your head of state and I make money. We try not to let too many people know about it."

Yang Feng said with a sinister smile.

He was a few CNC machine tools that used transistor components and early printed circuit board control, which were equivalent to the level of the US in the late 1950s. The earliest CNC milling machines in the United States had just begun to be developed and appeared first in 1952. The performance was relatively poor, including investment casting technology, which was just beginning to appear. These are essential to the aerospace engine industry, and it was also the guarantee that his scientists could raise the engine to the level he required in a short period of time.

He wanted to let Ronaldo know that he had high-performance alloys and special manufacturing processes in his hands. When the two parties cooperated to develop Conway engines, these were all available, so that they could ensure that Aicang's turbofan engine could be developed in 53.

In fact, the design of jet engines is not the most important thing. Otherwise, Whittle would not have designed it based on his own enthusiasm for invention. The most important thing is materials and processing technology, which requires an industrial system to support it. In the 1950s, the aero engine industry was soaring, and almost everything that should have appeared in ten years. The turbojet surged from more than two tons to six or seven tons, the thrust ratio surged from two-stage to five-stage level, and even the turbofan and large ducts appeared. Fighters surged from a few tons to more than ten tons or even twenty tons, relying on the improvement of materials and technology. Titanium alloys in 1554 and CNC in 1552 are the most important driving forces behind the scenes.

Now, if Yang Feng wants to accomplish what he needs, he must rely on these things. If it really doesn't work, he can only use composite materials, but this is a bit cruel. It was the late 1960s. Ronaldo fell on this thing and even died once. If it weren't for the British government's help, Ronaldo, the name of the aviation industry that later stomped his feet and trembled three times, would have completely disappeared.

Now his composite materials are only controlled at the level of glass fiber and resin, but they only use efficient pultrusion forming technology, and have not yet reached the point of being as terrifying as carbon fiber. At this time, glass fiber composite materials are not rare, but are limited by production processes. Simply put, they are all hand-paste stages, so they are not as cheap as him.

He also took great pains to make these things. Not only did he have to search and brush machines all over the world, but he also had to let Vera build data models for the production process, and he had to let those beautiful robots use machines based on the data model within the Voyager number and create real products. Then he moved the machine to his factory, and those beautiful robots were responsible for teaching workers how to use them. He even had to teach basic knowledge to some selected college students who could be assured until they fully understood the principles and production processes of these things.

In short, each of the factories on the small islands around Yingtian Mansion can be regarded as the crystallization of Yang Yuan’s efforts.

Fortunately, his university education has been really good over the years, especially Nanyang University has trained a large number of knowledge-based talents. The most difficult time is already the past. You should know that at the beginning, Chief Yang personally took charge of the work, and now he can basically watch others work.

Moreover, as many factories have been retired and their confidentiality has decreased, they have gradually moved to Shuntian's industrial zone. Some of them he doesn't like now have even taken it out to win people's hearts. He just needs to keep some of the shares and wait for money to be collected.

In fact, in his plan, except for some special lifeline enterprises, his factories will be lifted step by step. After all, his companies are actually similar to state-owned enterprises in the planned economy era, but they are all the latest technology, so there is no market competition pressure at all.

He has no opponent at all, so how can he get pressure?

But the disadvantages of such enterprises are gradually emerging, such as lack of innovation, rigid management, laziness of workers, and corruption. Especially this problem is getting worse and worse. Fortunately, his whipping is also very useful. In the Ming Dynasty, such crimes are required to be whipped.

Once such a company has competitors, it will be very miserable.

So his easiest way is...

Sell.

Seeing that foreign competitors were about to appear, they simply retained some of their shares and sold them to Chinese capitalists who depended on him for management, and threw them directly into the free-competitive market.

He has sold a lot of factories over the years. In Yingtian, Temasek and Hong Kong stock exchanges, investors are waiting for him to sell factories every day.

The initial instant noodles, plastic toys, down jackets, organophosphorus pesticides and compound fertilizers that he just sold recently, and even a few days ago he even threw out the arsenal of the g3 rifle to go public, but he still retained 40% of the shares to be the major shareholder, just like what countries such as Britain and Gaul are doing now.

It’s just that people are nationalizing in this way, but they are privatizing in disguise in this way. To be continued
