Knight of the Light - Chapter 885
Michelle opens a luxury store, chooses the best store, does the best decoration, and waits for at least three months to open. Zhou Qingfeng kept in touch with her on the phone and sent a batch of goods to her every week for trial marketing.
The latter stayed in Shenzhen until the beginning of July, busy building a textile-based light industry industrial chain, but a phone call took him to the Hongdu factory, which was working on heavy carrier aircraft.
After two years of F-14A surveying and reviewing, several design teams supported by ‘Shengguang’ competed with each other and completed more than ten configuration wind tunnel experiments for the carrier-based aircraft project, and selected one of them to officially start engineering research and development.
Zhou Qingfeng arrived at Hongdu Factory just to see the one-to-one wooden fighter model being built. Due to the limited aviation operation space of the carrier-based aircraft, there is no domestic experience at all, and such a model is required for personnel training in advance.
Modern aircraft design and manufacturing are too complicated. Before playing in China, they were all imitation light machines. The J-10 has just made its first flight, and the heavy carrier-based aircraft is completely blank. Everyone is novice and lacks confidence.
In order to make the project go smoothly, Zhou Qingfeng used Honglong Pharmaceutical to obtain a group of ‘retired experts’ in the aviation industry from the United States. Including design, manufacturing, operation and maintenance, involving all aspects, there are currently more than 200 people.
Most of these are engineers from top aerospace manufacturing companies such as Boeing, Northrop, and Grumman. There are also some retired US military “old sea dogs” who specialize in flying F-14A pilots and ground crews on aircraft carriers.
The ‘Blue Army’ has been led by Arce in the past two years and has exhausted the domestic sea and air pilots physically and mentally. The Air Force no longer mentions the introduction of the Su-27, and instead pays for the introduction of the AL-31F aviation production line.
‘Holy Light’, using the assistance of Madsic and Western technology, is preparing to localize this Russian engine.
As for the introduction of 24 Su-27SKs by the Air Force before, after repeated actual combat training, it was proved that they could indeed defeat the “Tomcat” and “Fighting Falcon.”
Maozi’s radar is really bad, it’s too powerful, it’s a waste of electricity. The performance of air-to-air missiles is also false, and it is not an opponent of AIM-120A.
At present, the rebels on the southeastern islands are changing or about to change to F-16A/B and the “Phantom-2000”. The navy and air force who have tasted the pain are under great pressure.
At present, the domestic bets are all placed on the Hongdu factory, waiting for its own heavy fighter based on the F-14A and F-16C to come out.
“Thanks to Mr. Zhou’s support, otherwise this project is really difficult.” The head of the Hongdu factory personally picked up the plane at the airport and led Zhou Qingfeng to the factory.
The reason why this master who does not understand aircraft design is invited to listen to the report is that the current design and manufacturing require the strong support of the’Holy Light’. Both capital and technology are indispensable.
“The No. 10 project in Chengdu has fully implemented computer-aided design, which greatly saved research and development time and started manufacturing prototypes one year in advance. We are also vigorously introducing them here, and we are deeply aware of the benefits of computers.”
The brains and brains are all feelings.
For future generations, life and work are inseparable from computers, and they need it for food, drink, and sleep. But at present, there are still many old researchers who are not used to or even resist using new things.
Because of the emergence of new things, the skills that some old antiques spend a lifetime studying and mastering are instantly obsolete. These old antiques often still hold a high position. They need to solidify their thinking and learn again.
The’Red Tomcat’ is a project initiated by the’Holy Light’ with money, and now the navy and air force are strongly supported. Vigorously employing new people from the pre-research stage of the project, the average age of a research and development team of thousands of people is only 30 years old, which is a very risky move.
“The computer is really good, especially the computer provided by Mr. Zhou.” The R&D staff at the Hongdu Factory are full of praise for this.
Can it be bad? They are all PS3s that are specifically used to play games, and they are all BUG-level existences with more than 200 billion floating point operations per second. The graphical simulation used to run large amounts of data is fast and good.
The PS3 that Zhou Qingfeng took out frightened everyone in the country, exclaiming, “The U.S. Emperor is invincible, how can they make such a strong thing?” This is really forced to invest in semiconductors.
If people in the ministries and commissions know that there is a 9 trillion times per second ‘Ruthless’ in the office of the president of ‘Holy Light’ playing minesweeping at idle, I’m afraid it will be even more dizzy and vomit blood.
With the unique architecture of the PS3 processor cell, the ‘Matrix’ team of ‘Holy Light’ put together a two-hundred-core parallel supercomputing, and the peak computing speed reached an ‘amazing’ 36 trillion operations per second.
In the past, it took one month for computing tasks in foreign countries and one year in China. Since it took too long, I just stopped doing it. Now, it is also a problem that is considered a month abroad, but it only takes a few minutes in China.
So a bunch of topics came up.
The time lost by domestic researchers due to the fact that “tools are inferior to humans” was quickly equalized or even surpassed, and computing resources appeared unprecedentedly rich. Many studies that could not be done in the past can now be done easily.
This condition is too bad.
“Because of the improvement of scientific research conditions, the chief engineer of the No. 10 project simply recalculated the original plan. The air intake, wing, and fuselage structure were all fine-tuned and successfully reduced the weight by several hundred kilograms.”
Zhou Qingfeng is at a high level in the ministries and commissions, and the Hongdu Factory showed him the small model of the No. 10 project made in Chengdu. After he saw it, he said in astonishment: “You guys got the DSI inlet out so soon?”
The early model of the No. 10 project used a binary adjustable inlet, and the improved model adopted DSI technology. The latter is simple and lightweight, and has many advantages. The difficulty is to use supercomputing to complete heavy fluid mechanics calculations.
If the computing power is not enough, fluid mechanics is a research topic that cannot be carried out at all. But if the computing power is enough, this matter becomes much easier.
DSI technology was once known to the sky. It can wait for a breakthrough in the country, and even the second-generation modification used for miscellaneous use uses DSI inlet.
The researcher in charge of the introduction was very happy, “Zhou, you are very knowledgeable. This is the DSI inlet currently being studied by Yankees. We have conducted a tracking study on this and found that it is really good.
There was no plan to use such radical technology in Chengdu. But with so much computing power, it’s really hard not to try. After trying it, I felt that the effect was so good that no one wanted to go back and use the old technology anymore.
This is all thanks to the computer and a large amount of simulation software obtained by Mr. Zhou. We also intend to be radical, discard conservative thinking and use advanced technology in the carrier aircraft project.
This is mainly because Mr. Zhou gave us too much help. In addition to the widespread use of computers, the experts introduced from the United States not long ago really gave us reassurance. “
When the brains talked about this, one by one, like a fox stealing a chicken, smiled happily.
Those who were’introduced’ were all American experts with decades of work experience. A small team with a dozen people each has greatly promoted the progress of the project and corrected the mistakes of young people at low cost.
Now American experts are still very popular. They approve the recommended plan, and Hongdu Factory will definitely consider it seriously. In addition, the domestic navy and air force are now being abused by the “Tomcats” and “Fighting Falcons”, and they are facing heavy pressure across the strait…
This will definitely take some radical paths.
Zhou Qingfeng thought, “If you are radical, be radical. The big deal is that I will let Arcie and Sophia work together to help fix bugs and the like. In fact, it is nothing more than spending money. What is lacking now is not money, but courage and confidence.”
Researchers in the factory led the way, and a group of people went to the manufacturing workshop of the carrier aircraft model. But when he went in and took a look, Zhou Qingfeng was shocked: “Wait…what is this?”
“Red Tomcat.” The researcher who explained was beaming, feeling that after multiple rounds of argumentation, the plan that was approved by American experts must have surprised Mr. Zhou.
Liar, are you blind? !
Where is the red tomcat? It is clearly a red raptor. It’s still a stealth carrier-based red raptor with duck wings!
This is too radical!
