Chapter 580: So Huge
Domestic heavy transport aircraft is also a blank, if there is a domestic Universiade, then there is no need to worry about air tankers now.
You must know that air tankers can significantly increase the range of fighters and increase the time they spend in the air, which is of great help to the improvement of combat capability.
Because there is no suitable refueling aircraft in China, the most suitable modification, one is a transport aircraft, the other is a large passenger aircraft, and now, the Yun-10 project has been completely discontinued, and there is no large transport aircraft in China, although a lot of Boeing passenger planes have been purchased from abroad, but these passenger planes are civilian, if military modifications are carried out, it is a violation of the agreement, in fact, the West uses passenger aircraft to transform refueling aircraft is also countless.
Now, Qin Feng looked at the landing of the Galaxy Transport Plane, his eyes were full of envy, and at the same time, he also knew that it would be quite difficult to make this kind of transport aircraft available in China, I am afraid, it would take decades.
Don't look at the simple structure of the transport aircraft, and there is no need for those overloads and so on of fighters, but this thing is still a test of the industrial base, if there is no such ability in China, even a one-piece girder can not be built, let alone the giant engine.
The technology of transport aircraft is also constantly improving, the shape of the wing, the shape of the fuselage, are blown out through a complex wind tunnel, after many experiments.
In everyone's eyes, the Galaxy transport plane became clearer and larger, and when it appeared in front of everyone's eyes, the huge silhouette was even more surprising.
Its length is seventy-five meters, how long is this, compared to one J-8, three J-8 are connected together, and it is not as long as it! A thirty-story building, lying down, about the same size as it, can imagine how huge it is.
In addition to its length, it is also tall, with an overall height of almost twenty meters, which of course counts from the landing gear to the top of the vertical tail.
The vertical tail is the tallest, and, like many transport aircraft, it has a T-shaped vertical tail layout, with the horizontal tail at the top of the vertical tail rather than the tail.
In terms of handling, it is not as direct as the tail layout, but such a layout has a greater advantage, that is, the tail can open a large hatch.
Some people say that with large passenger aircraft, there will be large transport aircraft, in fact, there are many different technologies of the two, although they are both large aircraft, but the role is different, the structure is different.
For example, the wing, large transport aircraft should take into account the take-off and landing at the front-line field airfield, all of which are on the single wing, this kind of engine is relatively high, to avoid sucking in the runway debris, but if it is a passenger aircraft, the position of the engine is just the side of the cabin, the noise in the cabin will be quite high, and the passengers must be dissatisfied, so the passenger plane is the lower single wing.
The cross-section of the fuselage is also different, and if you look at it from the front, you can see that the cross-section of this aircraft looks like a pear, so of course it is to have enough space to place some large pieces.
And, of course, this vertical tail.
Now, the Galaxy Transport Plane landed on the runway, and after only a few hundred meters of sliding forward, it came to a steady stop, almost exactly like what Qin Feng said.
This is the reverse thrust of the engine.
The engine is originally jet backwards, but a baffle can be set up in the back, and when it lands, the baffle blocks and allows the engine to blow forward, so that braking power can be provided.
Of course, if it is the thousands of degrees of heat of the jet, it is not easy to push this air flow to the front, this baffle has to withstand high temperatures, and the air path that blows through it also has to withstand high temperatures.
Therefore, it is definitely not the gas that reverses the thrust, but the outer duct.
The engine of a large aircraft and the engine of a fighter jet can be the same core machine, and the turbines inside are the same, but the outside duct is different, and the duct ratio of the fighter is small, if it is large, the windward area is large, and it is not easy to reach a higher speed, and the duct ratio is generally not more than 1.
The big plane needs power, so the bypass ratio is almost more than 2, and the main provider of its thrust is the fan outside, which blows the air, and the reverse thrust is easy to achieve.
Now, the Galaxy transport plane has stopped, and the tall cockpit is very far from the ground, and you can imagine the feeling of flying this kind of plane, like driving a giant ship of 10,000 tons.
"Look, its nose!" Just then, someone shouted again.
As we all know, the transport aircraft can open the hatch at the tail, and many tail hatches can land directly on the ground, just forming an inclined plane, which can facilitate the entry and exit of vehicles, but many people will not think that the nose of this transport aircraft can also be opened.
As it slowly flipped upward, it was like a monster opening its mouth, this scene, even Qin Feng was stunned, Qin Feng knew it, but he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he didn't know it would be so spectacular!
Our own side does not have this kind of aircraft, and our own transport plane only has the Y-8, and the nose of the Y-8 is the navigator's cabin, and it is absolutely impossible to turn it over.
"For large transport aircraft, it is more advantageous to be able to turn over the front, and you will know when we load the J-8 in a while." Qin Feng said.
They landed, and then opened the front and rear hatches, and then someone came out of it to contact.
"We were ordered to come to transport, where is the plane?" A crew member shouted to this side.
"It's coming, it's coming!" At this time, the J-8, which had its wings removed on both sides, was already slowly moving over under the action of a trailer.
Aircraft traction, is also a science, in later generations, the country has a lot of advanced aircraft tractors, especially the Liaoning ship with the aircraft tractor, so that foreign countries are envious, in contrast, India is still using tractors to tow aircraft.
However, that was already after the new millennium, and now, what is used to tow the J-8 is just an ordinary 130 truck with the cargo bed removed.
Now, this truck is steadily dragging the Jian-8 fighter and heading towards the tail of the transport plane, and everyone has driven the plane over, and they are just loading the plane, this kind of trivial matter is too simple.
130 trucks, which are already relatively new, in the past, the base was used to use 212 jeeps, and even used the old liberation to drag fighters, with long tow rods, pulling fighters, and the engines in front of them were emitting black smoke in streams.
