Chapter 153 Remodeling

I stayed in Hongdu for three days and wrote down all the parts that needed to be replaced.

And his affairs here have come to an end, and he returned home with the catalog of parts to be manufactured and the flight data Cui Tianzhi gave him.

When he came back this time, he had something to do again, and he was no longer the idle fish he had been before.

The next day after returning home, he made a plan for himself. The first step was to make all the replacement parts for Suzaku 8.

After all these things are ready, he will also start to think about what he should bring to the Xiangshan County Air Show.

He is already very good at making parts. There are still many materials that have been smelted before, so there is no need to start with materials.

The thing that needs to be replaced the most this time, and the thing that wears out the most, is the single crystal metal blade.

This is the largest part he wants to make, followed by the air bearing.

It took him seven days to buffer all the manufactured parts. After packaging them, he called Cui Tianzhi. It didn't take long for the military truck to pull the parts to arrive.

So far, all the parts for Suzaku 8 have been sent to Hongdu. As for how they get there on the road, he doesn't care.

During the week he was making parts, he was also thinking about what to get to take to the air show.

After thinking about it, he had no idea, and then he decided not to think about it.

It’s not a big deal if there are fewer products, but where is the quality? So what if there are fewer products?

Anyway, this time I was going to gain experience, and I achieved a lot of results that I didn’t expect.

Thinking this way, I adjusted my mentality.

After he adjusted his mentality, his mood became smoother and his heart was no longer impetuous.

The products he brought to the exhibition were determined, which were two original Suzaku 8 and Suzaku 3.

Of course, the one in Cui Tianzhi's hand cannot go, and the other one is not yet known where!

After he completes the Suzaku 8, he will be very busy. He will build at least four aircraft, two of each type.

One of them will be used as a model and placed on the exhibition stand.

This can be replaced by a real model, that is, an airplane shell, as long as it doesn't look fake!

The other one is a real machine, and this one is just for showing off.

All functions must be complete, and this aircraft may be used for performances by then.

Things still have to be done piece by piece. Now let’s finish the overhaul and reassembly of the Suzaku 8 at the Hongdu Factory, one piece at a time.

After thinking about his next plan, he only stayed at home for seven days this time before returning to Hongdu again.

In less than two weeks, he traveled back and forth between Hongdu and his home twice.

After returning to the Hongdu Factory, he threw himself into the intense overhaul. If the things here were finished earlier, he could go back to do his own things.

After careful assembly and superb skills, he reassembled the Suzaku 8 and restored it to its original glory.

And this time he not only simply overhauled it, but also dismantled the previous pylons on the wing.

And the removed weapon racks were placed on the receiver with a stronger structure and will not move, and on the belly of the machine.

Since Chief Cui wants combat effectiveness, it is better to keep these racks.

After assembling the Suzaku 8, he immediately returned home from Hongdu, and then he threw himself into the busy manufacturing work.

During the day, I was working on parts in the factory, and in the dead of night, I got into the virtual laboratory and started my own research.

What is he going to study at this time? Of course, it was what Cui Tianzhi had promised before, to redesign Suzaku 8 with war as the starting point.

Let the Suzaku 8 truly become a combat aircraft capable of beyond visual range and close combat dogfighting.

The first thing to solve is to install the external weapon rack. As a stealth fighter, the first thing to ensure is its appearance.

Then the fuselage of this aircraft needs to be redesigned. The previous fuselage did not consider built-in missiles and cannons, so there was no space reserved for these things.

His solution to this problem was to widen the fuselage as much as possible and build a magazine on the fuselage while maintaining the stealth shape.

And leave space for the cannon, but if you want to change the fuselage, you will face a problem,

That is, the aerodynamic layout will inevitably change, and the lift coefficient will definitely change if the layout changes.

To design the fuselage shape and aerodynamic layout in this way is undoubtedly to build a new aircraft.

But these did not stump him, and he was definitely more challenging.

In this way, he designed the shape of the new Suzaku fuselage. The layout was based on the Fo-22 pictures he saw online.

The magazine is designed to the belly and the side of the fuselage air inlet, which also makes the fuselage several times bloated.

Compared with the previous Suzaku 8, the current aircraft looks like a big fat man.

The shape of the nose has also been fattened by him. Two 20mm Gatling cannons are placed on both sides of the nose. One magazine is fully loaded with 360 rounds of ammunition, and a total of 720 rounds on both sides.

Not to mention the small amount of ammunition, because if a fighter plane reaches the point of using its cannon, it means that it has reached the time of life and death battle.

With the maneuverability of his aircraft, he might be able to knock down the enemy with a few cannon shots. 720 rounds of ammunition is really a lot.

For this fuselage that has gained a lot of weight, he specially created the supersonic wind tunnel tools that Hongdu had come into contact with in the virtual laboratory.

When blowing the wind tunnel into the fuselage, his eyes once again made great achievements.

Wherever there is an aerodynamic problem, his eyes can immediately provide the data.

He also made small-scale improvements to the fuselage based on the data provided by his eyes. After the improvements were completed, he went into the wind tunnel to blow them, and then modified them again.

After this cycle, there was finally no room for modification on the fuselage of this aircraft. Of course, all these improvements were made while maintaining the stealth effect.

After finishing the fuselage, the performance of the aircraft he redesigned also changed.

The weight is a bit heavier, but it has more wind tunnels and modifications. The aerodynamic layout is excellent, and the performance has not changed much compared to the original.

On the contrary, due to the excellent aerodynamic layout and the substantial increase in lift, the take-off weight has actually increased.

That's all the changes in appearance. The biggest change is the generator installed on the engine.

This is an upgrade prepared for the radar on the aircraft. The previous generator was of very low power, so no attention was paid to this.

But things are different now. There is an active phased array radar on the plane that consumes a lot of electricity and claims to be able to roast a chicken from a kilometer away.

The power of this thing is too small, but it cannot be used. It turns out that the power on the plane is just enough.

This time, in order to allow aircraft to use radar with confidence, he specially conducted research on generators.

The generator attached to the engine is driven by the high-temperature gas inside. The generator attached to the top of the fuselage is driven by the wind generated during the flight of the aircraft.

He installed five generators on the entire aircraft, two of which were thermal power plants attached to the engines.

There are also three wind turbines installed on the fuselage. Of course, these generators will not have much impact on the aerodynamic layout.

In short, he was very attentive to the modification of the aircraft in the virtual laboratory this time. Many things were considered from the perspective of combat, and he also conducted countless deductions to prove that the designs he made were practical. .

Time passed slowly for a month. In this month, he took out all the parts of the two real planes. Of course, he also took out the outer shell of the plane.

And during this month, he indeed spent endless hours in virtual experiments,

The current flow of time is very high. During these times, he has achieved the ultimate in details for aircraft, not to say fighter planes.

These things were all experimented by him little by little, and it can be said that this is the most thoughtful product he has ever made.

He has already designed the fighter jet in the virtual laboratory, so of course he has to keep up with it in reality.

Still using the same materials, in his workshop, he started to pick up the parts of the new aircraft alone.

He had already planned that as long as he got all the parts and spare parts for the new aircraft, he would immediately take these parts to Hongdu.

As for why I went to Hongdu instead of assembling it at home, it is also very simple, because the conditions at home do not allow it.

The construction of the Summer Town factory is about to be completed, and the place there is big enough, but there is a problem, and that is where to take off?

It cannot take off, so how to transport this eight-meter wingspan is a problem.

So he relied on the Hongdu Factory, and the Hongdu Factory treated him very well and were not annoyed at all because he was coming to occupy resources.

On the contrary, they are looking forward to his arrival, because being able to see the birth of an aircraft with their own eyes also inspires their daily design work.

On this day, he finally finished all the parts and put them into categories. After transporting them to the military truck, he also got on the military truck and took a ride straight to Hongdu.

It’s still the same workshop as before, and it’s still the same technicians.

On the day he arrived in Hongdu, he began to direct these technicians and opened all the parts boxes of the Suzaku 8.

There was also an assembly instruction manual he compiled in the parts box, so he pushed these people aside to assemble the old Suzaku 8.

And he began to unpack all the boxes belonging to the new model, and unpacked the unique engine of the new model.

The engine, whose appearance had obviously changed, gave Yan Hang, who was watching, a surprise.

Discovering that the engine had changed, Yan Hang immediately walked to the engine and carefully looked at the changed parts of the engine.

After research, he discovered that what had changed was just the generator.

At this time, Yan Hang also thought about the situation where the battery on the plane was insufficient.

"Zhenhua, the boxes you are unpacking alone now must be different, otherwise you wouldn't go into battle to install these things yourself!"
