c491 Arrive at the test flight site
Hearing what Mr. Zheng said, Liu Cong felt that this was also within his budget.
After all, the thrust of my seventh-generation engine is at least 24 tons, and any ordinary thrust frame is enough to destroy it.
“Mr. Zheng, I didn’t think carefully about this matter. I should have told you about it from the beginning.”
“The ordinary test thrust frame is definitely not enough to verify the power of this new seventh-generation turbofan engine.” Liu Cong said.
“you do not say!”
Mr. Zheng’s excited voice startled Liu Cong.
“Let me tell you, after our first thrust stand broke, we spent two days getting another thrust stand. Guess what?”
Mr. Zheng looked mysterious.
Liu Cong was confused for a while and said: “Mr. Zheng, didn’t you just say that you have been working on the thrust frame for two days? Did you test it?”
“No, I didn’t measure it. When it reached 25 tons, the thrust frame exploded directly!!”
“Everyone in our research team was incredible at that time. You said in the last meeting that the maximum thrust of this seventh-generation turbofan engine is 24 tons.”
“When we were doing research and development last time, we were afraid that the thrust frame would continue to dry out, so we added an extra ton just to prevent the thrust frame from drying out again!”
When Mr. Zheng said this, Liu Cong also became curious.
He also began to doubt the accuracy of various data in the information, so he took the initiative to ask Mr. Zheng.
“Mr. Zheng, how many tons were measured later?”
Mr. Zheng took a deep breath and said, “28 tons!”
“28 tons!!”
“The thrust is a full twenty-eight times!!”
“Do you know what this concept is? This is more than twice the thrust of our fifth-generation turbofan engine!!”
Mr. Zheng kept gesticulating in the air with his hands, very excited.
“Academician Liu, you don’t know. What I hope most in my life is to increase the engine thrust of our domestic fighter jets to 18 tons. I would be satisfied. This thrust is enough to catch up with the sixth-generation fighter engines from the United States.”
“But when this happens so suddenly, my old heart can’t stand it! I really can’t stand it!”
“Even I didn’t expect that the thrust of the engine could reach this level. I initially thought that the data you mentioned was a bit difficult to achieve. Who knew that after I achieved it, this data completely exceeded our expectations! ”
“As of now, our generation of engines is at least 30 years ahead of the competition!”
“Thirty years! Do you know what this concept is?”
…………
Mr. Zheng talked a lot to Liu Cong, even telling the development history of domestic aerospace engines.
Liu Cong is also willing to just listen to Mr. Zheng’s ramblings. He really lacks a lot in this aspect, and he also wants to learn more through Mr. Zheng’s dictation.
“Academician Liu, am I a bit verbose?”
“Think about it. How come you, a person who can develop a seventh-generation turbofan engine, don’t know the history of our domestic aerospace engines? Even an old man like me is confused!”
Mr. Zheng was a little annoyed.
When Liu Cong saw Mr. Zheng like this, he quickly explained: “Mr. Zheng, no, I really don’t know what you are talking about.”
“Although I have developed a turbofan engine, I really don’t know much about the history of our country’s aviation engines!”
When Mr. Zheng heard what Liu Cong said, he felt much better than before. He talked with Liu Cong for a while about some professional knowledge of aerospace engines.
While the two were communicating, there was a knock on the office door.
“Please come in!” Mr. Zheng said casually.
Then he and Liu Cong continued to talk about some professional matters.
“Mr. Zheng, someone from the aviation base is here to pick you up and Academician Liu.” A young man wearing scientific research clothes said outside the door.
Mr. Zheng looked at Liu Cong, then at the young man outside the door, “Okay, I understand, let’s come over now!”
Seeing this, the young man took the initiative to close the door of Mr. Zheng’s office.
“Academician Liu, you see it’s getting late now. It’s time for us to get there. We can’t let the people over there wait too anxiously.”
“Okay, let’s go now!”
“Mr. Zheng, isn’t the test flight venue located at your research institute?” Liu Cong asked.
“Academician Liu, do you think our institute has a runway? Even such a small runway is only enough for an ordinary fighter jet to take off!”
After listening to what Mr. Zheng said, Liu Cong thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case.
When he came to this research institute, he saw a high-speed runway similar to that of a university playground, which could only be used for a small fighter jet to take off.
“It seems so. Then where are we going now?”
Liu Cong looked at Mr. Zheng with a puzzled look.
“Our test flight site is three kilometers outside the suburbs, not far from our research institute, and it is also our place!” Mr. Zheng said.
Liu Cong nodded and said: “Okay, then we can’t keep them waiting, let’s set off now!”
…………
…………
Twenty minutes later, a group of people followed Mr. Zheng to the test flight site.
As soon as he got off the car, Liu Cong was stunned by such a spectacular scene. This was not a test flight venue. This was obviously the parking lot of the aircraft.
There are all kinds of aircraft parked on these runways, including fighter jets, transport aircraft, and even passenger aircraft that have been eliminated from the last century.
Such spectacular scenes are rare for Liu Cong.
“Mr. Zheng, are you sure this is just a test flight venue? How come there are so many planes!!”
“There are forty or fifty planes in total, right? I feel like I even said less!”
Liu Cong was in disbelief and sighed one after another.
Mr. Zheng smiled slightly and said, “Academician Liu, this is indeed a test flight site, but these are aircraft with engine problems or that will be eliminated.”
“We need to further transform them and allow them to take off from our test flight site brand new. This is the purpose of this aviation base in the first place!!”
“Let me familiarize you with it first, so that you can have a good look at our domestic fighter jets.”
“There are many of those fighter jets I just talked to you in the office here!”
With that said, the group of people walked towards the runway. Several people walked in a hurry this time because the venue was really too big. If they didn’t walk quickly, they wouldn’t be able to reach it.
“Academician Liu, this is what I just told you, the first-generation Flying Eagle fighter developed by our country. You don’t even know what kind of difficult environment we had to develop this fighter jet at that time…”
Standing in front of the Flying Eagle fighter jet, Mr. Zheng told Liu Cong many stories about the predecessor of this fighter jet, as well as his experiences when developing this fighter jet.
“Academician Liu, this is the Eagle Fighter II I just told you about. At this time, our aircraft uses fourth-generation turbofan engines!”
Mr. Zheng took Liu Cong around one after another for a long time. After seeing that they were all other ordinary models, Mr. Zheng did not take Liu Cong to watch.
“Academician Liu, I think we should take a look at the power of our newly developed Qinglong fighter-2!” Mr. Zheng said excitedly.
Liu Cong nodded, “Okay, I’m looking forward to it too!”
