Chapter 1088

Of course, the idea of transforming the conformal fuel tank into the bomb chamber is very simple and not difficult in theory, but it is extremely complicated in practice.

First of all, the inside of conformal fuel tank is divided into four compartments in order to ensure that the fuel can be supplied to the engine smoothly and orderly and ensure the structural strength of conformal fuel tank.

This kind of small compartment can be filled with aviation fuel. If it is equipped with ammunition, it will be a little too small.

After all, as a combat bombing, even if you fly one sortie with the body bomb cabin, you can bring two rockets. The combat efficiency is not low, but low enough for men to be silent and women to cry.

Secondly, the internal structure of the conformal fuel tank is simple. Apart from the fuel tank itself, it is just an oil delivery system to ensure the balance of oil supply, and there is no other superfluous things.

The bomb chamber of the airframe is not bad, because to add weapons, it is necessary to keep the shape of the airframe. The bomb chamber must have power lines with the fire control system of the airframe, and also have a certain overall control system. The most important thing is to open the outside. Otherwise, how can the weapons light up?

Last but not least, materials.

With the adjustment of the internal structure and the increase of supporting equipment, the aluminum lithium alloy used in the original conformal fuel tank is bound to be unable to complete such a heavy task. It is bound to need a high-end material that can support the overall structure, control the weight, and make the internal equipment compatible with the weapon load.

In this way, with the help of design software and wind tunnel test, we can barely make this kind of building block like body shape preserving bomb cabin completely formed.

So this thing is not a simple component that can be formed immediately by putting forward a concept, but a systematic engineering that integrates aviation, materials, aerodynamics, high-end manufacturing and many other top disciplines.

In other words, who has a strong family background, sufficient foundation, and much experience can barely reach out to try.

Needless to say, the F-117, B-2, F-22 and yf-35 are all flying around. They are all ready to serve. Even the yf-35 already has a prototype. They have the right family background and experience. They are superior to the others.

Because of this, this kind of change from conformal fuel tank of intake port to bomb cabin of airframe is a trivia in the eyes of these American aviation giants. It's not a matter of whether they can do it, but whether they want to do it or not.

If the Soviet Union is still alive, it is estimated that it can still compete with the aviation giants in the United States. After all, the Soviet aviation design bureaus are not given in vain. The problem is that the first task of Russia, which integrates most of the Soviet heritage, is to solve the problem of starvation, and the second is how to develop.

In this way, not to mention the next generation of combat aircraft, we are thankful to be able to keep several types of aircraft finalized in the Soviet era. After all, for the Su-27 series aircraft, the internal "upgrade potential" is still very large. It takes three years, three years to repair, and three years to mend. Such operation is very rare for Comrade Davari.

Russia is half dead because of economic problems, while Europe is holding a good hand.

The next generation of combat aircraft was just at the right time. After all, Europeans have been worried about self-defense for half a century. Only with the blessing of several "winds" can they complete the integration of aviation forces. Just as they take advantage of the victory, they may be able to compete with the United States on the next generation of combat aircraft People keep abreast of each other.

As a result, the traditional European art of muzzle cannibalism began to break out again. The reason was that each of them had his own reason and his own way. After a long time, they didn't come up with a reason. So the Europeans were ready to have a long-term fight, and it didn't matter if they had three, five or seven years. After all, it was the next generation of fighters. Except for the United States, only Europe had the ability to research and develop them, and the rest was one All of them are children under one meter, so it doesn't matter if they are late. No one can catch up. What's the worry.

As a result, Europeans are not worried, but Americans are.

We should know that several "winds" in Europe have challenged the United States in many fields, such as arms, NATO's unified command, international trade, geographical influence and even credit and currency.

Among other things, the calculation currency sold to Saudi Arabia by the German led "typhoon" fighter is not US dollars, but the euro officially circulating next year.

This not only damages the interests of American arms dealers, but also directly challenges the interests of American financial capital.

Of course, the biggest damage is still the aviation giants, which can be called the backbone of American manufacturing industry.

Moreover, the more these American aviation giants look at the style of these "winds", the more they look like the way Airbus A300 used to block the American civil aircraft market.

At that time, because of the cold war and the common confrontation with the Soviet Union, as well as the fact that Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, North America, Lockheed and other tycoons in the United States were standing in a forest and attacking each other, Airbus was given an opportunity.

Now, with the end of the cold war, American aviation giants also follow the trend and begin internal integration. Boeing merges McDonnell Douglas; Lockheed merges with Martin Alita, thus forming two super Aerospace complexes, Boeing and Loma.

With the victory of the cold war and the prestige of the only superpower, how can Americans make Europeans jump?Don't Europeans want "wind"? Let them go crazy.

So a stroke of the medicine was given to the Europeans.

Is the yf-35 joint attack fighter fully open to European allies and the next generation of combat aircraft? Then don't worry about the hard work day and night, and don't worry about the shortage of funds. Join the yf-35 joint attack fighter project. Uncle Sam uses his reputation to guarantee that the next generation fighter is worth having.

As soon as the news came out, the United States arranged to join the United States' yf-35 joint attack fighter program, which is a well-known faggot and a little demon expert in Europe.

The British people's departure is tantamount to a drastic reduction in the next generation of combat aircraft in Europe. Although Britain has done well in everything, it is the best in Europe in two aspects: one is aeroengine, the other is aviation industrial design.

Despite the fact that these two areas are not obvious, no aviation industrial product is a problem in Europe with these two areas. Once they are lost, no good aviation industrial product can be produced in one finished product.

Because of this, the departure of the British indicates a major setback for the next generation of European combat aircraft.

Yes, it's just a setback. It's not a complete GG. After all, it's all a collection of old industrial countries. There is still a foundation. As long as Europeans bite their teeth and work hard, there is still hope without Britain.

The problem is that at this time, many Europeans have counseled that the United States and Britain are invincible. Instead of being tough, they should compromise and follow. So Italy and Spain quickly defected to the US aviation giant.

As soon as these two countries leave, it is a complete indication that the next generation of combat aircraft in Europe is dying. Although Italy and Spain are not as good as Britain, France and Germany, they are indeed the top suppliers in European aviation manufacturing.

Spain's composite materials and automatic wire laying machine are no less than those of the United States; Italy's large-scale aircraft gantry machine tools, flexible fixtures, etc. have been leading the way for decades, and even Germany's equipment, which is superior to machinery manufacturing, has to be admired.

Once these two countries pull, it indicates that the backbone of the next generation of European combat aircraft will be completely broken.

Russia and Europe are like this. Can Tengfei group do it?
