In the capital city, on an open space in the outskirts of the city. This place is heavily guarded, especially because it is very secretive, and there is a regiment of troops guarding it here. And here is the mysterious 51st District in the military archives. And the 51st District has been relocated to the capital. Since Wang Guorui proclaimed himself emperor, he has gradually moved those Taiwanese institutions to the capital, so that he can better control it. The same is true for District 51, the core of which is the Red Police Base, which has been transferred to the capital. And the second level, that is, some important confidential research institutes, and in this second level, many officials have ushered in today, even Wang Guorui has come here, and it is quite nervous to be here.

"Your Majesty, according to your suggestion, we have finally achieved results in the past two years. We have finally tested it out, please come and have a look!" A man with a greasy face said.

And those who don't know will definitely think that this greasy face is a certain worker, but no one thought that he would be a mechanical student studying in the United States, studying mechanical design. And for the past two years, he has served as the commander-in-chief of a mysterious plan, and now it is finally completed.

"Your Majesty, the Kunpeng project is close to completion, and now our final version of the Kunpeng aircraft has been designed and completed, please accept it!" said the chief designer Fu Tiandi.

The so-called Kunpeng Project is actually a code name for the plan to develop aviation. This Kunpeng is a big bird in ancient Chinese mythology, a big bird that can soar in the sky. The reason why Kunpeng was used as the code name for this development aircraft is also a very important factor. The research and development of this aircraft is a very important project, and it cannot be developed casually. It took two years to develop this aircraft. And this is still the case when some government resources are concentrated. It is conceivable how difficult it is to develop an aircraft.

Wang Guorui also smiled when he saw the biplane. He has been waiting for this plane for two years, and he has been waiting for this plane for two full years. That is to say, Eagle finally waited for this plane. Because there were no planes before, this red alert system has been unable to get out of the Air Force Command. And now with this plane. The Air Force Command should be able to figure it out by then. In the future, the air force is one of the important services. If there is no air force, the war will not know how it will develop. The future status of the air force is even higher than that of the army. Because air strikes will become more and more important in the future, the air force has changed from being attached to the navy and army to an independent military branch.

"What happened to the Kunpeng aircraft?" Wang Guorui asked.

"Of course. This is the last model we tested, and we should be able to succeed. But during our research this time, we encountered many difficulties!" Fu Tiandi said.

Wang Guorui asked, "What difficulties did you encounter?"

"First of all, it is the engine. The reliability of the engine is too poor. Our engine is prone to parking in the air. We use diesel engines as engines. Once the engine is in the complex environment in the air, once it stops, it will be very difficult for the pilot. But it is a fatal injury. And we asked the engine research and development department to come up with a qualified engine as soon as possible, otherwise we would have no way to proceed. Of course, we did not pass all the responsibilities to the engine department, and we were all thinking about how to To ensure the safety of the pilots, we later tried to use a dual-engine solution. That is, two engines are used. Even if one engine fails, the other engine can be guaranteed to run. Because according to statistical probability, two engines fail together There are very few situations, so the safety of the pilot must be ensured first!" Fu Tiandi said.

Wang Guorui nodded and said, "That's right, everything is to ensure the safety of the pilots first, that's for sure."

Wang Guoruidang knew that the safety of the pilots should be the first priority, because the value of pilots is much more expensive than that of airplanes. We must know that in later generations, many countries would rather lose a plane than lose a pilot. Once there is any danger in the air, the pilot is usually persuaded to parachute first. certainly. If it's a test pilot, it depends on the situation.

And the value of pilots is immeasurable. Because it takes a lot of resources to train a pilot from childhood to adulthood. In addition, since he entered the flight school to study, then to train a fighter pilot, according to the statistics of later generations, the cost of training a fighter pilot is almost equal to the price of gold equal to his body weight. The cost of training a pilot is tens of millions, and the time spent is definitely not low. In many cases, in addition to resource costs, there is also a time cost in wars.

The death of a pilot means that the time and cost of the pilot's ten or twenty years from childhood to adulthood have also been in vain. Although it seems expensive to make an airplane, in fact, the time cost is much less. If it was during the war period, working overtime to produce, maybe a lot of planes could be produced in a day. However, pilots cannot be trained without continuous investment for more than ten or twenty years. Moreover, even if you are willing to spend money, it is impossible to easily train wind pilots. Even if you are willing to spend money, can time be bought with money? Money alone can't spend time, so this time cost is terrible in the course of the war.

In war, the production of aircraft is not an important thing, the number of pilots is the reason that restricts the strength of the air force. As long as the country is willing, it can enter a state of war at any time to produce aircraft with all its strength. But pilots can't increase quickly at all, and the training process is very long. The time cost is also extremely huge, so they will definitely not be able to effectively fight in this way. At that time, the training time and cost of pilots were also extremely faithful.

So I would rather destroy a plane than die a pilot. This is not only a humanitarian thought, but also saves money for the country. The value of this pilot is much higher than that of an airplane, especially in terms of time cost. It is heartbreaking to die. Even Wang Guorui heard about why the Japanese lost in World War II? In addition to the so-called resource reasons, there is another reason is the pilot. The number of pilots in Japan is small, and one death of them means one less. In the later stage, Japanese pilots simply used those pilots who had only studied for a month or two, or even just a week or two, to let them go to the sky, and finally adopted the method of "Kamikaze" to die together. Of course, Wang Guorui also believed that if the Japanese had a way, they would not adopt this method.

In fact, the Japanese do not pay little attention to pilots, but attach great importance to them. Especially after a Japanese pilot was captured and educated by our party, he used anti-war propaganda after returning to China. If it was in the ordinary army, it would definitely be shot ten times. But not only was the pilot not shot, he was just transferred to another battlefield, and he was not even court-martialed. It is conceivable that the Japanese also attach great importance to pilots, from which we can know that pilots are definitely the wealth of every country. One very important reason why Japan lost to the United States in World War II was the lack of pilot reserves.

"You have done a good job. In the future, when we develop weapons, we should consider people-oriented. Your method of using dual engines is a good method, and it will definitely stand the test of history!" Wang Guorui said.

Wang Guorui knew that this dual-engine method was very popular in later generations. Whether it was military or civilian, dual-engines were generally used, and some even had three or four engines. And this is also for insurance, try to minimize the damage to the pilot and passengers on the plane. And this quickly thought of using a dual-engine method to ensure safety, and did not completely rely on the improved diesel engine, which is not bad. After all, in fact, in many cases, technology will never keep up with the needs. Once a problem is encountered, it is not right to completely shift the responsibility to the technical research and development personnel.

Designers also have a responsibility, and have a responsibility to find ways to make the best things out of relatively imperfect technologies. If you have to rely on technical R&D personnel to be responsible for everything~lightnovelpub.net~ and push all responsibilities to them, then even if the technical R&D personnel are gods, they can't do it! Any scientific research can never keep up with the speed required by human beings. What human beings can do is the survival of the fittest, and they can use the technology that can be achieved as much as possible to achieve their own goals. This is a test of wisdom, otherwise it all depends on more advanced technology, and human beings will not be able to be truly independent in the end.

"Of course, Your Majesty, the research and development unit of the diesel engine has also developed a better diesel engine, which allows us to improve it better. And our plane will soon be able to take off, please Your Majesty to inspect it!" Fu Tiandi Said.

"Okay, I'll review right away!" Wang Guorui said.

Soon, a pilot got into the ladder and successfully got into the cockpit of the plane. Then stepped on the accelerator, the propellers of the plane also started to rotate rapidly, and soon the plane also started to run to start moving, and then quickly flew up from the runway, and successfully lifted off.

Many people around also made a dumbfounded look, because this one really took off? It's really lifted into the sky, and human beings can really lift into the sky? (To be continued.)
