Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 192: Eagle Sauce is forced to take the right path (Subscription Request)

"Yang Ning, burn it out, you are really good. The test results are out, and the performance of this new material is far beyond our expectations!"

Yang Fengyu and the others also knew what Yang Ning had been researching with Mr. Ye during this period. After seeing Mr. Ye, the guard did not stop him and let him in directly.

However, Yang Fengyu and Tian Jianming followed along just in case.

"It burned out so quickly?" After seeing Mr. Ye and the others come in, Yang Ning put away the documents he was processing on his desk and asked Mr. Ye in surprise.

"I have confidence in what you gave me!" After coming in, Mr. Ye did not sit down, but directly handed the test results to Yang Ning.

After Yang Ning took it, he found a place to sit down. At this time, Zhao Yang also came in with a few cups of tea.

After seeing the people in Yang Ning's office, Zhao Yang put down his tea and quietly walked out.

"After our testing, this new material has a stable operating temperature of 1030°C to 1160°C, and can also operate stably for a short period of time at a high temperature of 1200°C."

"At working temperature, the oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance are much stronger than the original GH3030 nickel-based deformed high-temperature alloy."

As he spoke, Mr. Ye picked up the teacup and took a sip. He sighed and said, "Now, the heart problem of our dual-war fighter has been largely solved. Now it's up to Comrade Qi."

Yang Fengyu and Tian Jianming were sipping the tea in their hands carefully and were also very excited after hearing what Mr. Ye said.

The twin-engine Type 2 fighter jets. Now in the world, only our big brother has flown this type of aircraft into the sky last year. Other countries, including the United States, have only just broken the speed of sound with their most advanced fighter jets. We will be able to solve the engine problem of the twin-engine Type 2 fighter jets soon.

Now that the engine problem has been solved, how far can we be from having our own dual-engine fighter jets?

Seeing that these three people were so excited about just a dual-combat fighter that had not yet been successfully developed, Yang Ning smiled and shook his head.

It's no wonder that they are so excited. The current mainstream air combat concept in the world is to pursue high altitude and high speed. That is to say, the faster the plane flies and the higher it flies, the stronger the combat effectiveness of the country's air force will be.

But Yang Ning knew that with the emergence of the big brother MiG-25, this high-altitude and high-speed air combat concept would force the Eagle Sauce and others to change track and focus on the research of missiles and electronic technology, and quickly fall behind.

There was no way out. Big Brother's double-triple fighter jets made the Eagles and their ilk feel desperate. They once thought that Big Brother had obtained alien technology to develop this fighter jet, and there was no way for them to catch up.

So they had to change the track. We can't compete with you at high altitude and high speed. Can we stop playing with you? Let's compete in something else.

As a result, Western countries began to intensify their research on missile and electronic technology.

Later people discovered that this was the right path.

It was precisely this strategic shift in Western countries that made Big Brother suddenly realize that it seemed to have taken the wrong path in its pursuit of electron tubes in the field of electronics. But it was too late at that time. It had fallen behind by more than ten years and could not catch up even if it wanted to.

Even if we develop the twin-engine fighter jet in the future, it will soon fall behind.

There was no way. During the Cold War, technology was updated too quickly.

It is no wonder that in the past, Mr. Qian did not agree with our two-pronged approach of fighter jets and missiles, and advocated the priority development of our missile technology, leaving aircraft technology aside until we have the ability to research it in the future. After all, this two-pronged approach is too expensive, and it is not something we could afford when we were poor in the past. I am afraid that only superpowers like Big Brother and Eagle Sauce can afford such consumption.

No, Big Brother and Eagle Sauce could not withstand such consumption. In the end, Big Brother was dragged to death by this two-legged walking route.

If Eagle Sauce didn't have many followers, and these followers were basically rich, and he could have recovered some blood by plundering his followers, he might not have been able to hold on in the end.

Therefore, it was just a dual-two fighter, and it had not been developed yet, so Yang Ning was not too excited.

"But after the engine of the twin-engine fighter is developed, shouldn't we consider developing a turbofan engine?" Yang Ning suddenly thought of this.

Although our situation is not sufficient to support us to walk on two legs, it is still possible to accumulate some technology in advance.

This way, we can avoid being bullied by the Americans in the future because of the backward performance of our aircraft.

Yang Ning believes that as long as we don't lag behind the Eagle Sauce in terms of engines, with the help of our scientific researchers, we will be able to catch up quickly in fighter jets when conditions permit in the future.

After all, the mainstream engine in the future will be the turbofan engine, and the turbojet engine will gradually give up its mainstream position as high-altitude, high-speed fighter jets decline.

"By the way, the higher-ups have decided to build a special alloy smelting plant in Shu Province. I'm going there to provide technical guidance in a while. Don't you have a high-temperature resistant material that needs to be researched?"

"If you're not busy, figure out the recipe as soon as possible and I'll hurry up and cook it for you."

Mr. Ye drank up all the tea in the cup, and even chewed the tea leaves in his mouth before swallowing them. Then he stood up and spoke to Yang Ning.

"Okay, actually the other material is simpler. It just needs to be able to withstand high temperatures for a short period of time. The material requirements are not as high as those for turbine blades." After hearing what Mr. Ye said, Yang Ning nodded and agreed.

If our current nickel reserves were not so small, Yang Ning would have planned to use this already developed material in all missile engines.

It's a pity that only Big Brother and the Eagle Sauce can afford such a luxurious practice now.

As for the other high-temperature resistant material, it is used in the combustion chamber and nozzle of missile engines.

Because missile engines are disposable, there is no need to consider the stability of the materials at all. It is sufficient as long as the material can maintain structural stability for a short period of time.

However, the missile combustion chamber does not have high requirements for material stability, but the requirements for thermal insulation coatings are not low.

Because the operating temperature of a missile engine is much better than that of a fighter engine, even though missiles now do not fly as far or as fast as they will in the future, during the missile propulsion phase, the temperature in the combustion chamber is still around two thousand degrees.

Since no material can fully withstand this temperature, the only thing we can do is to ensure that the thermal insulation coating burns stably before the engine stops.

Taking into account our current situation, Yang Ning chose the most cost-effective polycrystalline graphite siliconized as the coating material.
