Chapter 449 (1/2)

In fact, because Tiangong technology has successfully developed aircraft electric engines and sold a large number of them to domestic enterprises, a large number of civil electric passenger aircraft have begun to be developed in China.

Among these enterprises, some enterprises have started the idea of developing tilt rotor airliner, and even their products have now completed the design stage and entered the actual manufacturing stage.

However, because the technical capabilities of these enterprises can not be compared with Tiangong technology and other official enterprises, the size of these tilt rotor aircraft designed by these enterprises is relatively small, and for the sake of technical difficulty and safety, the tilt rotor aircraft selected are multi rotor aircraft with more than four rotors.

Compared with the rotorcraft with double rotors and more than four rotors, especially the rotorcraft with more than the eighth rotor, the safety is much higher and the possibility of losing control is much smaller. After all, the technical capacity of these enterprises is limited.

Of course, in addition to these private enterprises, official enterprises have naturally launched the research and development of tilt rotor aircraft. However, the largest size of the officially developed tilt rotor aircraft is similar to that of the owl.

This model of Tiangong technology is different. Apart from others, just in terms of aircraft size, it is definitely not comparable to the rotorcraft of these enterprises.

After all, the size of this aircraft is built according to the size of phoenix-1 aircraft, so the technical difficulty of tens of meters long tilt rotor aircraft, even the current Tiangong technology, is also very difficult.

Of course, it may seem to many people that the research and development of this large tilt rotor aircraft is not good for Tiangong technology. After all, the technical difficulty of large tilt rotor aircraft is so high, and the cost of research and development is also very high.

However, Wang Bin and Tiangong science and Technology aerospace aviation laboratory do not think so. First of all, naturally, if there are large aircraft that can take off and land vertically, these aircraft have great uses in many aspects, especially in rescue and disaster relief.

In addition, the reason why Tiangong technology will carry out the research and development of this kind of aircraft actually has its own consideration, that is, to verify the feasibility of the vertical takeoff and landing technology of large aircraft.

You know, like the Phoenix kt1 aircraft, as an aerospace aircraft, it is doomed that it will not only go back and forth between the earth and low earth orbit in the future. In addition, this aircraft will also undertake various flight missions in the Earth Moon space system, that is, the means of transportation between various space manned spacecraft in the Earth Moon space system, The aircraft will also be used as a spacecraft vehicle between the moon and lunar orbiting spacecraft.

However, landing on the moon is different from landing on the earth. There is no atmosphere on the moon. Therefore, on the moon, the wing of the aircraft has no use at all. Even because of the existence of the wing, it brings more harsh conditions for landing.

Therefore, if an aerospace plane wants to land on the moon, it can only be realized by an engine on an aircraft.

However, this brings a new problem, that is, when the plane lands on the moon, it can't land upside down. If it's OK in the process of landing.

However, if the tail first landing is carried out during landing, the risk can be imagined.

Therefore, at this time, the method of vertical takeoff and landing is undoubtedly the best method.

Therefore, Tiangong technology has already started the exploration and R & D of large-scale flight control vertical take-off and landing technology, and has also made great achievements.
