Chapter 318 (2/2)

At the same time, in addition to the research and development of turbojet engine, the research and development of pulse engine must also be carried out. After all, even if the turbojet engine reaches a certain height, it will stop working because of the lack of oxygen inhalation. At this time, it needs pulse engine or ramjet engine to provide power.

Of course, if the aircraft has flown to the edge of the atmosphere, neither ramjet nor pulse engine can work. At this time, only rocket engines and other engines specially used in vacuum environment can work.

Therefore, as Professor Dai said, for the research and development of high-altitude and high-speed aircraft, their Tiangong technology must be carried out.

So Wang Bin nodded and then asked him, ”Professor Dai, although for high-altitude and high-speed aircraft, Tiangong technology must carry out research and development, even if it is just a verification machine.

But you see, what type of high-altitude and high-speed aircraft should we develop? High-altitude and high-speed fighter aircraft such as No. 7 and No. 8, or high-altitude and high-speed reconnaissance aircraft like other countries, or simply develop larger high-altitude and high-speed bombers and aircraft or transport aircraft? ”

After hearing Wang Bin's inquiry, both professor poke and Professor Dai fell into meditation, because both professor poke and Professor Dai have not seriously considered this problem, but now they have no choice but to ask this question, so they naturally have to think about it.

After coming for a while, Professor Dai looked up and said to Wang Bin: ”Mr. Wang! I think if we continue to develop high-altitude and high-speed fighter and reconnaissance aircraft, it will not be of great significance to our company and China now. Therefore, I think I should develop heavy aircraft in high-altitude and high-speed. The best aircraft can have a tonnage of more than 100 tons, and this aircraft should also have a very strong carrying capacity, whether it is Whether it's carrying cargo, bombs or people.

After all, our research and development of this aircraft has been very clear, that is to lay a good foundation for the future research and development of aerospace aircraft. However, what is the purpose of our research and development of aerospace aircraft? It is to transport personnel and various goods from the ground to space and reduce costs on a large scale.

Therefore, since this aircraft is to lay the foundation for the future research and development of aerospace aircraft, there is only one choice for us, that is, to develop large aircraft with high-altitude and high-speed flight capability. ”

Wang Bin nodded at Professor Dai's words. After all, Professor Dai has made it very clear that there is only one option for Tiangong technology. However, Wang Bin immediately thought that if we can really develop large aircraft with high-altitude and high-speed flight capability, it is not a bad thing, not to mention who says that large aircraft have no combat and investigation capability, Carrying air-to-air missiles for high-altitude and high-speed operations is also a large high-altitude and high-speed aircraft, which can also carry out air operations.

Most importantly, large high-altitude high-speed aircraft can not only be used as a platform for investigation and prediction, but also as a bomber. At the same time, if possible, coupled with the ability of stealth, it is absolutely of great significance for research and development.
