Chapter 1336: The future is worrying

After Richthofen replanned the future strategy of the Luftwaffe, Xu Jie, who was on the other side of the Eurasian continent, was not idle. If Richthofen strategically replanned the future of the Luftwaffe, then Xu Jie deduced from the technical level what the Luftwaffe would bring to the future war! "That's how the FW190 came out?" Xu Jie looked at the documents in his hand and said a little depressed. In Xu Jie's view, if this aircraft can be put on board, then the saddest thing is definitely not the land-based aviation of the United States and Britain, but the sea-based aviation! Because historically, with the exception of the last F4U4 Corsair, which could suppress the FW190D with high-standard oil, no carrier-based aircraft has surpassed this fighter in performance! Although I am using FW190A now, at this time, let alone Pirate 4, even Hellcat has not come out!

As a traverser, especially a traverser who is familiar with various aircraft of the 2nd World War Air Force, Xu Jie still knows this aircraft very well, and his historical positioning is still very clear. The air combat type of the FW190 fighter is mainly divided into two types, which are Type A and Type D. The A model uses a BMW 801 air-cooled engine. The top speed is between 660 and 670, and after getting to the A8, the speed decreases slightly due to the weight. The climb is decent. Roll top notch. Horizontal coffee table. Belong to the kind of advantages and disadvantages that are more obvious. It seems mediocre, but the sea-based fighters of the same period really failed to beat this aircraft!

In addition to the Corsair, Hellcat has no advantage in the face of the FW190 of the same period, although there is a powerful R2800 engine, but the aerodynamic layout itself is worse, the so-called fat cat is not in vain, the maximum speed is about 600 kilometers per hour. In terms of speed, it is much worse than the FW190. There is no advantage in climbing, after all, fat cats are not light. Horizontal maneuvering is fine, but who's going to spin in circles at low altitude with you? What can you do if you miss the ass and walk away? If the drivers of the two sides are about the same level, Xu Jie is really not optimistic about the fight between Hellcat and FW190.

If the Americans can't do it, it's up to the British, and the British sea fire in history is a coffee table. If the British in this plane had opened their minds and had made the Spitfire 9 earlier and then put them on the ship, then they could have a half-pound with the FW190 in terms of flight performance. But the question is what about your flight? Although the range is not so important when the aircraft carrier is engaged, your range is shorter than the BF109, which is unbearable! The vast majority of Spitfires have a miserable range. If the BF109's range is a 60 point, the FW190's range should be above 70 points. Spitfire is only 50 points! A short range will definitely make the Spitfire a big discount in terms of actual combat performance!

The point is that the versatility of the FW190 fighter gives the German naval aviation more flexibility in its tactics. For example, if you have a British aircraft carrier with 50 Spitfires, 20 torpedo planes, and 20 dive bombers, you can easily estimate what the upper limit of the opponent's wave of aircraft is to attack the sea. But if you are dealing with a German aircraft carrier with 90 FW190s on it, then it is difficult to say. Because this thing can be used as a fighter, as well as a dive bomber, and as a torpedo machine! (The author has seen a picture of the FW190 mounted torpedo, but it was not mass-produced in the end.) You simply don't know how many air superiority fighters and how many attack planes there will be in this wave of attacks. In the event of interception, the FW190 immediately becomes a fighter as soon as it throws a load, and whether it is a TBF or an SBD, you throw a load or an attack aircraft. As long as they force you to throw away the mount, then the task is completed, otherwise what can a thoroughbred attack aircraft do? Fight to the death with the opposing fighter? Isn't it looking for death? But the FW190 is different, and there is nothing wrong with biting you back after throwing away the load.

Some people may say that in history, FW190F is an attack aircraft with additional armor, and the weight is still too large after throwing away the load, this Xu Jie can only say that this buddy is too superficial, and only attack aircraft that perform high-risk ground missions in World War 2 need additional armor, such as Il-2. And the armor protection of various attack aircraft used in naval warfare is no different from that of fighters, that is, the two steel plates in the front and rear of the pilot's cockpit are the main, and there is no need to install armor near the engine like the FW190F model! FW190A itself can carry 500KG bombs for bombing missions, and 1000KG can also be used if the mission is urgent. Xu Jie can't say that Spitfire can't carry bombs, Spitfire has actually been a dive bomber, and has brought 500-pound bombs, but one is that the bomb is less powerful, and the other is considering the tragic voyage, in a naval battle, it can really only be better than nothing. As for the F6F, it is more versatile, but the air combat can't knock the FW190, and there are no rumors that it can bring torpedoes. It's still not as good as the FW190.

Another thing that is very commendable about the FW190 is that as early as the beginning of the design, the FW190 has considered the need to replace the air-cooled engine with a liquid-cooled engine. (Could it be that Hans has realized that his skills in aero engines are all liquid-cooled?!) If the BMW 801 engine is not low in the Western high-power air-cooled engine, then by the time of the FW190D, the powerful JUMO213 engine is second only to the British Emperor in the production engine of World War 2! Although the FW190D9 top speed ratio is about 30 kilometers higher than FW190A5. But actually. Xu Jie, who had seen the FW190D extreme performance chart, found that the performance improvement of the D9 was not simply reflected by the maximum speed.

Let's start with climbing. The climb of an airplane depends on the power-to-weight ratio and drag. JUMO213 is a 2000 hp liquid-cooled engine, which is already a little more powerful than the ordinary BMW 801. Moreover, the liquid-cooled engine itself has the advantage of relatively small windward resistance, and the FW190A5 climb speed is about 15 meters per second and less than 16 meters. The maximum initial climb rate of FW190D9 is 22 meters per minute! That's 4,330 feet per minute! This data is not low even in the later fighters (that, the high-standard oil Corsair 4, Spitfire 21 and P51H don't show their presence!). And then there's speed. At sea level FW190D9 it can fly at a speed of more than 600 kilometers, and the speed at sea level in FW190A5 is around 550! This difference in speed at low altitude is huge.

If you look at it purely from the data, FW190D9 will definitely not suffer if you fight against the P51D and P47N of the same period at medium and low altitudes. Taking into account the combat altitude of the 2 combat carrier-based aircraft. Even if the Huaxia and the Entente put some army planes on the ships, FW190D9 can still maintain an equal level of fighting, and if the Huaxia pirate pirate-seagull aircraft is a little slow to improve, maybe they will also be beaten in air combat! So the low-altitude performance of this aircraft is really good.

And that's just the FW190D9 in history, if the Germans weren't so brain-dead, even if the technical level remained the same, after some appropriate modifications, the performance of the FW190 fighter could have been improved! The Germans in history finally got the two-stage supercharging out, for example, the TA152H is equipped with a two-stage 3-speed supercharger. Although the third speed sometimes had problems, at least from a technical point of view, the German supercharging was okay. The second stage of pressurization can better ensure the high-altitude performance. But alas, FW190D9 uses a 1-stage three-speed supercharger! As a result, the FW190D9 did not have excellent altitude performance, which was a design issue rather than a capability issue, and if the Germans were willing to strengthen the FW190D9's altitude performance, they would have been able to change the engine. Of course, after adding a first stage of supercharging, the performance at medium and low altitudes will be reduced due to the extra power. It's a matter of choice.

In addition, it is important to note that historically, the fuel label used after the FW190D9 appeared was B4 grade 87 fuel. The FW190A uses C3 grade 96 fuel. That is to say, the D type can still stabilize the A type in the case of bad fuel! Historically, the Germans lacked good fuel in the later period, (of course, if you compare the No. 100 and No. 115 of the American imperialists, then the German oil is really not good!) And in this plane, the Germans, having acquired three additional oil fields, could not have lacked fighter oil! If you FW190D9 use C3 fuel, then the performance will definitely be greatly improved. (The effect of the B4 plus MW50 afterburner system is the same level as the C3 fuel, and if C3 plus MW50, it will naturally have a greater improvement.) In other words, the performance of FW190D9 has the potential to be improved both in terms of hardware performance and fuel efficiency.

The ultra-high performance of the Corsair 4 was stacked with a No. 115 fuel and water injection afterburner system, which used almost everything that could be used. And even if the Germans couldn't get more than 100 fuel, they could still improve the performance of the FW190 fighter to a new level with the use of existing equipment. Therefore, from a more objective point of view, if FW190D9 can be improved, the gap with the Allied aircraft in the later period is still not large. From now on, this aircraft will become the greatest enemy of the fighter forces of the air forces of the Huaxia and the Entente until the end of the war!

And if you see it in stages, if Xu Jie doesn't give some reminders to the United States and Britain, I'm afraid that in the future after the war, the British and American air forces will be beaten into a small Fokker disaster! Just like the Spitfire 5 of the British in history was slaughtered! And the problem of the disadvantage of sea-based fighters cannot be changed for a long period of time, unless the British Spitfire 9 can be on board, or the Huaxia Shicha Falcon can serve on the American and British aircraft carriers, because the historical P51 team has run to Huaxia, so the Americans do not have P51 in this plane! For this reason, Xu Jie still gave a thumbs up to his belly! Although the Chanstervo company that developed the pirates is still there, but the research and development progress of this aircraft is very backward at this time, if Xu Jie guessed correctly, it should have just been established, after all, the R2800 engine has not been completed, and it is useless to come out! Compared with the original Corsair, Huaxia's Seagull fighter does not use an inverted gull wing, but a laminar flow wing, which reduces weight and improves high-speed performance. The cockpit adopts a bubble cockpit. Overall, it should be a little more powerful than historical pirates. According to Xu Jie's words, a good engine is missing, and everything else is ready!

It stands to reason that as an ally, Xu Jie should give some reminders to the United States, Britain and France. But since what the British did before Operation Monsoon was too inauthentic, Xu Jie also had the intention to make the British suffer. And after this war on a larger scale than the two wars in history, the empire on which the sun never sets will eventually fall. Xu Jie is still thinking about how to get a piece of the pie from the decaying corpse of the empire! For example, Malaya of the British is a good place now, and if it can be included in the control of China, the entire Strait of Malacca will become the inland sea of China! If you want the British to spit out more good, you have to let the Germans beat them hard enough in the first place! So Xu Jie thought about it, and definitely forgot it. Anyway, at the beginning of World War 2, Huaxia did not intend to intervene immediately. Let the British and Americans go!

In addition to the FW190, Xu Jie is still a little worried about the German jet aircraft, which historically led to the problem of too short life of the German jet engine due to various reasons, although so far Xu Jie still can't figure out whether the Germans are not skilled or lack resources. If it is the former, the German jet engine should not have any major changes, and if it is the latter, I am afraid that the problem will be serious, even if everything is according to the design of the historical ME262, if there is a reliable engine, then it will be difficult for the powerful propeller aircraft to fight! The speed of up to 850 kilometers per hour is 100 kilometers higher than the fastest P51H!

And when a design sketch of what is said to be a new German jet was put on Xu Jie's desk, this Dongdong, who resembled a meteor fighter with a swept wing layout, startled Xu Jie! Although Xu Jie does not understand the aerodynamic layout of jet aircraft, at least he knows that the drag of the ME262's suspended engine compartment is relatively large. Although the layout of the meteor is not very good, but at least the layout of the engine compartment is better, it seems that the MiG-15 of the Chinese cottage is going to hurry up, and if you have time, you have to urge the British, let the complex turbofan engine go first, and concentrate on making a centrifugal engine with relatively large power! Huaxia's jet fighters are waiting to be cooked! Huaxia is not without the development of its own jet engine, but there is still a certain gap compared with the British, according to the planning of the scientific research department, within 3 years, Huaxia can complete 1200 kg of thrust centrifugal engine is good, the service life is about 100 hours, this performance and later generations thrust 2270 kg, life of nearly 200 hours compared with the Nien engine compared with the gap is huge, although Nien came out very late, Huaxia will definitely improve the performance if it continues, But in order to be on the safe side, walking on two legs is a must. It's a national war at the beginning, and there is no room for the slightest sloppiness!

The last aspect is the guided weapons of the Germans, which has not been reported recently, but it cannot be careless. The research on electronic jamming and countermeasures must be accelerated, otherwise, if an aircraft carrier is directly killed by an X-bomb with a turn of its head, it will be a big loss. Historically, the Germans mostly used radio command guidance, and less often used wire guidance. If the Germans succeed in installing a large number of microwave radars in wartime, then the research on radar jamming will be strengthened.
