It's not only the officers who accompany the chief of the army and aviation that have a burning eye, but also Yodel in the village. Originally, he had to go back to the car and prepare to return to a certain regiment of the army and aviation before dark. But before he left, there was a more violent roar of helicopter rotors in the sky.
Yodel subconsciously turned his head and saw the scene of the "forklift" helicopter rushing forward in the wind. The whole person froze in an instant, and then his blue eyes began to become fiery.
The wind in the mountains affects the helicopter with two or three tons of steel structure. Normally, safe return is also normal operation.
However, not all helicopters will operate in this way when encountering a little wind. If so, how did the 101 air assault division of the US Army use helicopters to implement the deep frog leaping maneuver in the Middle East desert with more severe weather conditions in the recent Gulf War?
We should know that many of the artillery and vehicles belonging to the division are hoisted and maneuvered by helicopters. If there is a sandstorm, these hoisted helicopters will return. How can the US army win the brilliant victory of encircling and annihilating the elite Iraqi troops?
How to meet the similar adverse conditions?
It's very simple. As long as the power of the engine is strong enough, even if it's a brick, it can take you all kinds of equipment ~ ~ ~ force, all kinds of flying, just a little wind. It's nothing.
The engine power of several transport helicopters belonging to the 101 air assault division of the U.S. Army, whether chinugan or sea stallion, is more than 2800 kW, and the engine power of chinugan heavy helicopter is an amazing 3500 kW.
Such a helicopter hoisting a gun or something, not to mention walking on the ground in a sandstorm, at least it has little impact.
Although the "small forklift" helicopter is not as big as the two heavy helicopters of the U.S. military, and even smaller than the S-70 helicopter, it can be seen from the fact that it dares to move forward against the wind and is not affected at all that the power of the "small forklift" helicopter reserves a great amount of redundant power.
If not, the pilot of the helicopter will not dare to rush forward.
"It seems that I underestimated the performance of the" forklift "helicopter. Judging from its windward advance, the power plant is very powerful, but I don't know where their power comes from?"
Yodel, who picked up the telescope again, looked at the "small forklift" helicopter going against the wind, and couldn't stop talking. Hans, who helped him put down the telescope, frowned and asked, "could it be Russian?"
Yodel put down his telescope, pondered and nodded: "it's possible."
……
"The Soviet Union?"
The same question was not only discussed by two Germans, but also by the officer named Bian Kai on the mountain. However, after hearing this, Zhuang Jianye laughed and asked, "how can you conclude that the helicopter we produced uses Soviet things?"
"This..." Bian Kai wanted to explain, but Zhuang Jianye held out his hand and stopped: "by the way, do you know the model d-40a?"
"Er..." Bian Kai shook his head blankly. It was not only him, but also the head of the land and air transport department beside him. He had a question mark, d-40 Still a? He's heard of the D-30. It's a Soviet gun with good performance. Is it possible that the d-40a is also a gun?
In front of them, they were even more at a loss. Zhuang Jianye quickly patted his forehead with his hand: "I'm used to calling inside every day. It's wd-40a. Do you know this model?"
"This one knows, this one knows." Bian Kai quickly nodded: "the new turboprop engine replaced by air force Yun 6 two years ago has the same index as Honeywell's turboprop engine used before, and it is also made in China."
Before he finished speaking, Bian Kai suddenly felt something was wrong. At the next moment, a big hand also patted twice on his head, which was much stronger than Zhuang Jianye's previous shot. However, Bian Kai suddenly didn't realize it. Instead, he continued to say to Zhuang Jianye with guilt: "look at my memory, wd-40a is the product of Tengfei group..."
Speaking of this, Bian Kai realized something and raised his arm to the sky: "Mr. Zhuang, the power on the" small forklift "helicopter is not made by you?"
"The turboprop model is called wd-40a, and the derived turboshaft model is the wd-40b used on the" small forklift "helicopter. Originally, there was no w prefix. This is not the model naming standardization reform a few years ago. In order to facilitate the query, we added the w prefix according to the above requirements, but we are still used to calling it" d "
Zhuang Jianye explained to them that there was no way. W, the representative of "turbine", had just been used for a few years, and Tengfei group was not used to it. It was usually called D, so Zhuang Jianye was afraid that they would not understand what he was talking about.
If Bian Kai is the only one, it's all right. The key is that there's still a chief.
As a result, Zhuang Jianye didn't know what he said. He nodded to show that he understood what Zhuang Jianye meant. Besides, what's D is not a gun, but an aeroengine.Bian Kai, however, seemed to be drinking ecstasy soup. He was almost as dumb as a newly born tie Hanhan. The head of Lu hang could not help but frown. Just as he wanted to remind him to pay attention to the image, Bian Kai suddenly asked: "Mr. Zhuang, is the power of wd-40b the same as that of wd-40a?"
Bian Kai asked this question with a trembling voice, which vividly expressed a complex state of mind of waiting for fear in expectation and fear of touching despair in hope.
Zhuang Jianye is not a wordy person, nodded: "the same, are 886 kilowatts, 1200 horsepower."
"Xiao Bian Is this engine very good? "
As soon as Zhuang Jianye's voice fell, before Bian Kai's reaction, the head of land and air transportation on one side began to ask, Bian Kai almost said, "what's the point?" I blurted out my rhetorical question.
Fortunately, the reaction came, otherwise it would not be as simple as being scolded. In fact, the position of this chief of land and aviation is similar to that of Jiang Liang, deputy head of a regiment of land and aviation in Southwest China. He is mainly responsible for the running in training of Army soldiers and helicopter troops, as well as some field and logistics affairs.
They were all transferred from the army's field forces. Not long ago, they may not know as much about helicopters as they do about tanks. There is no way. Just a few years after the founding of Lu hang, there is always a cycle in the cultivation of professional talents, so some transitional measures are inevitable.
What's more, similar things are not uncommon in the history of domestic military construction. In those years, a large part of the air force's command organs were transferred from the army's field forces.
As for the Navy, it is even more so. Many of them were built by the army and transferred to the past. Some people even didn't know what the captain was like. They jumped up excitedly and then spat.
So Bian Kai explained very patiently. After hearing this, the army chief was not calm. The maximum power of the ahye turboshaft engine on the "dolphin" helicopter imported from France was only 560kw, and the imitated turboshaft-8 was of this order of magnitude.
However, the wd-40b of Tengfei group has achieved 886kw, which is just
"Chief, the lifting operation over there has started."
The chief of land Airlines was shocked and couldn't extricate himself. He was reminded by Bian Kai. Subconsciously, he raised his eyes and couldn't pull them out any more.
