Chapter 443: Automatic loading

5 min read1,298 words

At this time, the position of the belly of the mocking fan was opened, and

several researchers were talking about the automatic loading device in the

bomb bay.

Obviously, the massive upgrade process just now does not exist for these

people.

Chen Xin did not deliberately ask anything, but just walked to the side of the

plane, and these researchers stopped the discussion and greeted Chen Xin one

after another.

Without waiting for Chen Xin's question, one of the researchers proactively

said to Chen Xin: "Academician, we were discussing this automatic loading

system just now. It was designed by you. Do you think it can be applied to

other aircraft?"

"Apply to other aircraft? Why do you have such an idea?" Chen Xin looked at

the researcher who was interrogating, and instead of answering his question,

asked him back.

Faced with Chen Xin’s rhetorical question, the researcher replied very

directly: “If this device can be used, wouldn’t all our fighter jets be able

to carry twice the ammunition load? This way they can be used in air combat.

You will be able to gain more advantages!"

With that, the researcher's eyes showed excitement.

However, Chen Xin poured cold water on him: "The weight of the entire filling

system will not be mentioned. When it is full of bombs, it will occupy most of

the space of a fighter. The ridicule is because it does not require the

characteristics of a fuel tank. In the belly of the aircraft, there is an

extra magazine that can hold it.

Switching to other fighter jets, their structure is already very compact, and

external fuel tanks are needed for combat. There is no room for this system in

the abdomen.

Even if it is forcibly installed, it will only increase the take-off weight,

resulting in a slower flight speed, and it will not play any role in actual

combat. "

Chen Xin's words clearly dimmed the researcher's expression, and he also knew

that things were exactly what Chen Xin said.

If you can bring more ammunition, it is impossible for the previous aircraft

designers to miss these things. Even if they can't be made into automatic

loading, they will make a few more mounting points on the fuselage.

But this researcher is still a bit reconciled. After all, if the bomb load of

the aircraft can be increased, it can indeed effectively increase the

firepower.

It's just that not every fighter is like mocking wind, which can save the fuel

tank and install only one reactor.

Even if other fighters are transformed into nuclear-powered electric

propulsion, the structure and layout of the fuselage are still restricting

them, and it is impossible to squeeze the automatic loading equipment into the

fuselage.

Researchers are not ignorant of this, but when faced with the automatic

loading device in front of them, they will still have some imagination.

It is a pity that this imagination is destined to fail, and Chen Xin seems to

feel that this is not enough, and specifically said: "And I am not satisfied

with this automatic loading system. At that time, I just thought that there is

still room in the cabin, so I can enter whatever you want. Just made such a

system.

In the actual test, the pilot also felt that this system was not easy to use,

so I plan to redo this system, or the entire missile launch part. "

"Redo? What do you plan to do, Academician?" Another researcher heard Chen

Xin's words and asked curiously.

In response, Chen Xin touched his chin and said, "Have you seen a rocket

launching nest? How about making a similar missile launching pod?"

"Uh... this..." Several researchers looked at me and I looked at you, and they

didn't know what to say for a while.

Although the rocket launching nest and the missile launching capsule are

indeed similar in some sense, and the structure and principle are not much

different, they are still two different things in the final analysis.

In addition, the volume of rockets launched by launching nests is generally

relatively small, so they can fit into a launching nest.

But no matter how small the missile is, the size is still there. It is not

impossible to fit a similar launch bay, but the size will be very large.

Looking at the expressions of several researchers, Chen Xin certainly

understood what they meant.

Conventionally, only warships can fit missile launching bays, because road-

based missiles are usually a missile and a launch vehicle. Anyway, there is

enough space on the land to spread it out, so it’s not needed. Pack several

missiles together.

Only warships or airplanes have this kind of demand.

But the warship is big enough, and naturally it can hold enough missiles. The

aircraft is not big enough, even if the missiles are not big, they still can’t

carry so many.

Although the mocking wind is a special case, even if Chen Xin improves the

bomb-carrying structure in the belly of the plane, it will only be able to

carry a few more missiles, and it is not easy to launch.

When everyone was embarrassed, a ground technician on the side suddenly asked:

"Speaking of which, this structure is really unreasonable. Perhaps the rack

can be made into the style of a traditional bomb rack, and then, like a

magazine, one shot one at a time. Launch?"

The ground technician finished speaking, only to find that everyone's eyes

turned to him.

This made the ground technician a little embarrassed, thinking that there was

something wrong with what he said. UU reading www.uukanshu.cOM

However, Chen Xin did not pursue it. He just continued to touch his chin and

went under the belly of the plane. He looked up at the automatic loading

mechanism above his head and the missile pylons opened on both sides. After

thinking about it, he said, "This proposal is not bad. If you change the bomb

bay to a magazine-type pylon, replace the pylons on both sides with launch

ports, and load one round with one round, you can indeed carry more ammunition

than the current structure."

I want to announce that [\Mic\Mic\Reading\app\\] is really good, it is worth

installing, after all, you can cache books and read them offline!

"If this is the case, you can only carry one type of ammunition, right? This

has an impact on the flexibility of operations!" A researcher on the side

followed Chen Xin's thinking for a while, and felt that there was still a

problem. solve.

"This is easy to solve. Just open two more launch ports on the back. The bomb

bay is divided into two. The middle part is for the back launch port, and the

two sides are for the two launch ports, so that you can carry two types of

ammunition." Chen Xin only thought a little and gave a solution.

Hearing what Chen Xin said, after discussing with each other, several

researchers felt that this idea was more feasible.

So one of them asked Chen Xin: "Academician, do we need to modify the mocking

wind fighter's bomb bay according to this plan?"

"Let me see if you come up with a design plan. Don't rush to move the bomb

bay. After your plan comes out, I will see if I want to change it." Chen Xin

was not in a hurry to get started, but Let the researchers make the plan

first.

Although the transformation is very simple for him, and it is only a matter of

thinking to get a practical transformation plan, but after all, Chen Xin is

not a professional, so he still let these researchers come up with the plan.

He is based on the professional plan. It is better to make improvements.
