It's March in spring, and it's suddenly warm and then cold.
Gao Jianwu came to somewhere in the northwest desert.
"Minister Gao, fortunately you have fulfilled your mission. Based on the information provided by Minister Gao, our four institutes finally completed the first generation prototype of the 453 project, Xiong Da. Today is the first detonation test!" Professor Rao Jianru led Wu Dayou and Qian Qiang. An assistant reported excitedly to Gao Jianwuhui, who had just arrived.
Although Gao Jianwu had already expected this day, he didn't expect that when it actually came, he still felt very excited in his heart!
This is the real killer weapon for the country.
"Professor Rao, Professor Wu, Professor Qian, and all the comrades who participated in the 453 Project Xiong University project have worked hard! In such a short period of time, we have caught up with the world's advanced level in the field of nuclear utilization, and comrades are all indispensable!" Gao Jianwu said. Holding Professor Rao's hand tightly, he said emotionally to the three of them.
[An app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, used by all old bookworms.
It is produced with the first test yield in the Americas, and the approximate explosive power is equivalent to 20,000 tons of TNT explosives. "Professor Rao led Gao Jianwu and his party to the experimental observation area and introduced.
These technical parameters were all provided by Gao Jianwu, of course Gao Jianwu knew it very well.
But Gao Jianwu really doesn't know how powerful it is. He has only seen the huge mushroom cloud rising and the extremely shining documentary footage.
But what you see through the screen and what you see live are completely different.
Just like now, Gao Jianwu's heartbeat suddenly surged to over 100!
At 12 noon, the weather was good, and the wind force at the test base was almost 0, as if it had stopped at this moment.
Xiong Da was quietly placed on a 30-meter-high iron tower, waiting for the final moment of detonation.
Although the development of Xiongda is supported by a full set of technical data, all effective calculation parameters are given. This greatly reduces the manpower, material and financial resources required for research and development. It still took the 4th institute a year to send Xiong Da to this experimental platform.
Professor Rao, Professor Wu and Professor Qian feel very nervous now. His eyes were fixed on Xiong Da on the high platform in the distance, and his heart seemed to be clenched.
As the initiator of the 453 plan. Gao Jianwu asked to take on the role of timekeeper.
"hook!"
"Hua!"
"Qi!"
Gao Jianwu forced himself to calm down and counted loudly in a strong and stable voice. Listening to Gao Jianwu's voice, the hearts of the people around him soared to over 120!
At this moment, everyone almost had their hearts in their throats.
"land!"
"Wu!"
"Si!"
As the time for detonation approached, everyone simply lost their breath. They just held their breath and stared at the big round body of the bear in the distance. No one knew that when the detonation actually occurred, this quiet What violent power the doll will unleash!
"three"
"two"
"youngest"
"Hole!"
"Detonate!"
Professor Qian suddenly pressed the detonation button!
At this moment, time seemed to have stopped. Everyone wore earmuffs and there was no sound. They could only hear the beating of their own hearts.
It seemed like a second had passed, or an era had passed.
A huge fireball suddenly flashed out, as bright as a thousand suns. If everyone hadn't prepared sunglasses and earmuffs in advance, even if everyone was at a safe distance, the violent flash would kill people directly. Blind for a long time!
There was an earth-shattering sound, followed by a huge shock wave, which knocked out airplanes (models), warships (models), artillery, tanks, armored vehicles, bridges, railways, wartime fortifications and civilian buildings, as well as horses, Dogs, monkeys, rats, and seed test subjects were all destroyed by the huge shock wave when they were close to the center of the explosion! Various testing instruments and equipment placed in reasonable locations according to the calculation results faithfully recorded the traces left by the first explosion.
In the distance, two movie cameras faithfully recorded the complete explosion scene.
Immediately afterwards, the huge mushroom cloud began to rise into the sky. If you look at it from a distance, you will find a huge black cloud in the sky, and there is a shining light, which can irritate your eyes and make the whole sky become extremely weird. It was as if a big sun had come out again.
A few hours after the explosion, white "snowflakes" began to fall in the clear sky. But where can there be snow in the desert in March? If you touch this strange snowflake, you will find that these things don't look like anything at all. The snow is so cold, but a little warm!
Because this is not real snowflakes, but radioactive fallout produced by the explosion of mushroom eggs!
It is extremely harmful to the human body!
Gao Jianwu is well aware of these hazards, so even those in charge of cleaning and sanitation at the test base are required to wear heavy radiation-proof clothing and are prohibited from going out.
Although the base is far away from the core explosion point, it cannot be protected from the wind.
Just blow this radioactive dust over.
Even if the weather forecast says there will be almost no wind today, Gao Jianwu doesn't want everyone to take risks.
According to final observation and statistics, the mushroom cloud produced by this nuclear explosion was 160 kilometers long and 48 kilometers wide. The snowflake-shaped radioactive fallout landed in the desert below the clouds. Fortunately, this is an uninhabited desert area.
The effects of nuclear radiation are minimized.
Even so, Gao Jianwu ordered that within 10 kilometers of the nuclear test center, no one unrelated to the test is allowed to approach, even if they are wearing radiation-proof clothing. Only sampling test personnel can take photos on site and conduct simple environmental testing data under heavy protection.
...
The yield of Xiongda is 20,000 tons. Gao Jianwu wanted to replicate the results of the Manhattan Project in the data to ensure the success factor. Sure enough, in the shortest time, researchers from 4 institutes successfully replicated the results of the Manhattan Project.
Xiong Da verified the entire process and principle of mushroom egg manufacturing.
After the first success, it was verified that there was no problem with the information provided by Gao Jianwu. The 100,000-equivalent Xiong Er had already completed the shaping and manufacturing of the shell and began the careful manufacturing of the final detonation part. It is expected that the second explosion test can be carried out in up to half a year.
Xiong Er is to further verify the maturity and controllability of the mushroom egg technology, especially whether some customized measures for throwing weapons can be detonated by throwing them from fighter planes! Weaponize quickly.
The Gray Wolf has an equivalent of 300,000, and the Red Wolf is a powerful test application with an equivalent of 500,000. These two giant giants will be verified by underground detonation, otherwise the pollution and damage to the surrounding environment will be too great. Even in the vast deserts of the northwest, it is difficult to find a place for testing.
Unless you go to find some uninhabited islands in the Pacific for testing.
...
Even if Mugudan is used, it can scare many people, and Gao Jianwu, who has been worried about it, can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Due to his joining, the little boy and the fat man from the beautiful country are not used. Even if they only have these two at hand now, Gao Jianwu does not dare to take it lightly, because at this time, everyone does not know much about this orphaned mushroom. When things get serious, you really dare to throw it down!
But if you have this thing in your hand, then you really don't have to worry about your opponent being hot-headed.
...
Good things come in pairs. At the end of the month, Gao Jianwu received a ribbon-cutting invitation from a school.
This time is a milestone record for the engine division of Fengtian 101 Factory, a subsidiary of the company.
They copied the turbojet 5 technology provided by Gao Jianwu, completed the ignition test, and successfully achieved the goal of a maximum thrust of 26 kilonewtons and a maximum thrust of 37 kilonewtons under afterburner. This means that the J-5 in the design The fighter has a usable power, although no long-term aging test has been carried out yet, and there is no test verification data on how many hours the engine life is.
But in this era, the first thing to solve is the problem of usability. Life span is irrelevant in the face of war. Many fighters do not last until the end of the product's life cycle.
What's more, the working temperature of the first-generation nickel-based single crystal high-temperature alloy developed has reached 1100, and the new processing technology for nickel-based alloys in the technical plan has been verified, such as isothermal forging, extrusion deformation, cladding deformation and other production processes. , plus the comprehensive application of titanium alloy and high-strength aluminum alloy.
In terms of quality, because the materials are much stronger than the previous products, we know without testing that the lifespan will be longer than the original products.
The application of new alloy materials makes the newly released turbojet 5 weigh more than 100 kilograms lighter than the total weight of the design prototype. The net weight is only 850 kilograms, and the thrust-to-weight ratio is close to 4.5. This is already the current advanced level of jet engines in the world.
Compared with the thrust-to-weight ratio of Mao Xiong's prototype of 3.84, it is already much stronger. Of course, the manufacturing cost is also much higher due to applications such as titanium alloy.
It's just that Gao Jianwu now has several ilmenite ores in his hands. Now that the production volume of titanium alloys has been stabilized, it is not a big problem to provide it for aviation purposes.
The completion of Turbojet 5 has enabled Gao Jianwu to develop jet warfare
After receiving the information about the ME262, the world's first jet fighter, the research team integrated the technology of producing the Mustang fighter on the basis of this prototype, as well as some design elements of the MIG-15 and MIG-17 fighter shapes in Gao Jianwu's memory, and a small amount of From some appearance pictures of the beautiful country's P-80 Meteor, the project team explored a newly designed jet fighter. The research code was directly named J-5 by Gao Jianwu.
From the appearance point of view, the J-5 with nose air intake is more like the MIG17, but the cabin design and control adopt a large number of technologies obtained from the P51 Mustang fighter. The weapon system uses two 20mm cannons. 400 rounds of ammunition are prepared respectively, and 4 mounting positions are reserved. Air-to-air missiles, rockets or aerial bombs can be mounted separately.
The bodies of the two prototypes have been manufactured long ago and have undergone multiple wind tunnel tests. The ribbon-cutting of the Turbojet 5 gradually made the test flight date of the J-5 prototype gradually clear. After passing the assembly line test and ground rolling test, The test flight is scheduled for May Day.
Seeing the awesome power from Factory 101, Gao Jianwu threw back the complete set of information on the J-79-GE17A turbine engine and began to ask the project team to set up a project to develop and produce directly according to this process design information.
Of course, the new turbojet will not be given its original name. Instead, it will be named Turbojet 7 by Gao Jianwu and thrown out.
Turbojet 5 is just something Gao Jianwu gave them to practice on, and it will soon be replaced in the future. The information given is also a mature production process design. What the project team needs to do is control the production to ensure the process design indicators required by the same information. The accuracy is consistent or even better.
Of course, there is potential for further iterative updates around the turbojet V, but compared to the J-79-GE17A turbine engine, Gao Jianwu feels that there is no need for them to explore on their own at this stage, and they can just get the J-79 out quickly, and then Taking out the F-4 Phantom fighter jet is the most critical thing to gain sky superiority.
But these are Gao Jianwu's plans, and those under him don't know.
The director and chief engineer of Factory 101 received the information provided by Gao Jianwu, and their heads exploded after only reading part of it.
The thrust of the newly given turbojet 7 mission target is directly required to be doubled!
This request is simply outrageous, but the factory director and chief engineer also felt the same way when they first received the turbojet 5 information, because they had only heard about half of the turbojet engine information from some foreign journals.
However, the information Gao Jianwu provided them allowed them to completely ignore many research and development links and just master the manufacturing process.
In this way, they built it in strict accordance with the design requirements and standards. Under Gao Jianwu's instructions, some key materials were replaced with alloys with better performance, so they achieved better results than the original design.
So even though they subconsciously feel that this step is too big, they still bite the bullet and accept the task.
After all, with the production and manufacturing experience of Turbojet V, it will be difficult to produce according to the drawings again, but it should not be insurmountable.
Gao Jianwu is very satisfied with the progress of jet fighters. At this stage, jet fighters will begin to enter the test and verification stage by the end of the year at most. Lu Xingguo and his air force must not only select team members for early training for test flights, but also Future jet fighter teams also need to prepare.
This is a brand new generation of fighter jets. Whether it is control or tactics, due to the jet engine, a powerful weapon that can push fighter jets to speeds of thousands of kilometers per hour, there is already a generation gap in the face of propeller fighters. How to make good use of this Suppression of generational differences is a major issue that the Air Force needs to solve in the next stage.
Only by solving this problem can we complete the task of putting jet fighters in line to form combat effectiveness.
In addition to power and speed, what truly forms the crushing advantage of the new generation of fighters is radar and air-to-air missiles!
[Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of sounds, and supports offline reading.
Focusing on Doppler radar technology, the radar team is now not only building air search and ship search radars for destroyers, but also customizing small air search radars for fighter aircraft based on this technology. From a technical perspective The problem is not big, but in terms of implementation, it is not simple to implement the process from large to small. It involves the accumulation of technology in many aspects, and it will definitely not be possible in a short time.
Fortunately, Gao Jianwu backhand split the F-4 Phantom avionics system into the AN/APR-36 radar homing and warning system, AN/FSA-32 automatic fire control system, AN/APQ-120 fire control radar, etc. The system synthesized a JSK-40 Sky Eye radar system and threw it to the radar team of the Institute of Electronics. This thing was first manufactured as the first-generation radar search and fire control integrated system for jet fighters.
The computer used in the system has basically usable computing performance after the advent of the Mozi first-generation transistor computer, which began to make up for the shortcomings of the P51 avionics.
In the future, based on the JSK-40 Sky Eye radar system, we can continue to evolve and iterate to improve performance when computer performance becomes stronger.
Gao Jianwu, who owns the future library, cannot provide them with specific guidance, but there is no problem at all in pointing out the direction of efforts, which can ensure that the general direction of the research team will not go astray.
Gao Jianwu felt even more confident when he thought that within a year, the two major killers would begin to form combat effectiveness.
Facing Huang Qingyuan's request, Gao Jianwu's answer was to go ahead and do it, and he would never sit idly by.
They even dispatched the first batch of 500 jungle warfare training advisors and 500 air defense combat training advisors to begin entering the peninsula.
This greatly stabilized the military morale of Huang Qingyuan and Qin Jiafeng. Following Gao Jianwu's suggestion, they began to formulate a plan to use comprehensive guerrilla tactics to gain time when necessary.
On the other hand, a comprehensive economic revitalization plan has also been launched in the region. Major families have spent real money to promote this economic development plan that benefits the vast majority of people. There is no racial discrimination in education, medical care, employment, etc., promoting rapid economic development. , so that people in the region can see real benefits. The economy in the region is growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and many people have obtained more job opportunities.
Compared with the British colonial era, there was a complete change. Compared with the surrounding areas, the common people began to have a clear sense of superiority, and their support for Huang Qingyuan and the others was getting higher and higher.
Except for a few large planters in the old days, almost no one wanted to go back to the colonial era. Under such unfavorable circumstances, Mongolian Marley felt that he could not wait any longer.
The war in the Southeast Asian peninsula is about to break out!
