Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2171 Just follow this
In the carriage, Yang Xiaotao was looking at the broken pieces of debris while searching for something useful.

"Boss Yang, look!"

At this moment, Li Haonan suddenly shouted, Yang Xiaotao ran over immediately, and then saw a severely deformed iron lump next to Li Haonan's hand.

Yang Xiaotao took a look and immediately realized that it was an engine.

"Mr. Yang, this engine is different from the others."

"Look, the engine over there is obviously half the size of this one. Look at this one, not only is it bigger, but the materials used are also different. Those are badly damaged, and some are deformed, but this one, the internal structure can still be seen..."

"Look here again. This should be where the engine is installed..."

Li Haonan looked and spoke with surprise on his face, like a child seeing a new toy.

"Boss Yang, this, this plane's structure is a little different. The tail and front wings look different from ours!"

Wang Xushan ran over, accompanied by Qin Ming and others. Their expressions were similar to Li Haonan's, all of them were excited.

"No, not only is it different from ours, it's also different from what we've seen before!"

"This giant must have at least six engines. How big must it be..."

Several people were sighing and laughing over there.

Stones from other hills, can learn!
Yang Xiaotao listened from the side and suddenly understood why the alliance wanted to obtain the wreckage of the plane.

Even scraps of steel can reveal many secrets in the eyes of professionals.

"Stop talking, and quickly pull all the things back!"

"Even rotten iron can be recycled, let alone these good things!"

"hurry up!"

"You guys just watch over me now and sort out the useful things."

"It's time for our special task force to get down to business!"

Yang Xiaotao stopped everyone from looking surprised, got out of the car and walked towards Mr. Wang.

The people behind him immediately started shouting and wanted to personally participate in everything.

Yang Xiaotao came to Mr. Wang's side, then took out a cigarette and lit it.

"How about it, are you satisfied?"

Mr. Wang smiled, as if to show that I had kept my promise.

Yang Xiaotao nodded, then took two puffs before saying, "Old Wang, can you help me find out if there is any information related to this plane, whether it's photos, other materials, or what everyone has seen, heard, described, etc., as long as it's related to this plane, I want it!"

When Mr. Wang heard what Yang Xiaotao said, his expression became serious.

"What do you want to do?"

Yang Xiaotao shook his head. "I don't know either, but I think this thing is very important to us!"

"Maybe this will be the direction of our future research!"

Mr. Wang was a little surprised when he heard this, but he didn't ask too many questions. He was an outsider in these matters, and asking too many questions would only bring trouble to himself.

"By the way, there is something we two should discuss."

Old Wang suddenly smiled slyly, came up to Yang Xiaotao and bumped him with his shoulder. Seeing him like this, Yang Xiaotao immediately became alert.

"Don't be so affectionate, I'm getting goosebumps!"

"Hey, you don't even want to be polite to me!"

Mr. Wang was in a good mood for once, but he threw a seductive look at the blind man, showing his lack of understanding of romance.

"If you have anything to say, please tell me now. I have to go back to work!"

"Say it, why don't you say it right away!"

Old Wang pulled Yang Xiaotao aside and said, "Earlier you mentioned the Thunder Engine. I'll go back and discuss it with Old Qian and the others. It would be best if our Seventh Machinery Department did it!"

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "This is the best way. You can do it from start to finish by yourselves without having to worry about other people's faces."

Hearing this, Elder Wang shook his head and said, "We know how big our appetite is."

"What do you mean?"

"Cooperation, our Seventh Machinery Department will cooperate with your machinery factory, let's build a branch factory together..."

"Hey, hey, don't leave, brat, we are here to discuss this..."

Watching Yang Xiaotao leave, Mr. Wang lost his temper.

It's my fault that I don't have the ability to do this.

"Damn it, this kid is a dog. He turns his back on me."

Watching Yang Xiaotao walk away, Old Wang looked up at the sky helplessly, then lowered his head again, "I still have to save my face!"

Ignoring Mr. Wang's "sincerity", Yang Xiaotao quickly left.

He knows it very well in his heart. No one will believe him when he talks about discussing cooperation.

At the end of the cooperation, isn’t it their machinery factory that provides manpower, money and materials, and bears all the risks? What about the benefits?

Ha ha
All the benefits go to the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building!

I have suffered so much from this kind of thing in the past.

Yang Xiaotao is not stupid. How can he not learn his lesson after suffering a loss?

This matter is non-negotiable.

Then he handed all the design drawings to Mr. Chen.

There are some things that you will never grow from without experiencing them!
For two days, a full two days, the machinery factory's fleet transported goods back and forth between the train station and the factory.

On the other hand, the aircraft wreckage that was transported back was also quickly classified.

Because there were too many things and the machinery factory didn't have enough space to move them, Yang Xiaotao moved some of the equipment to the training ground in the back!
Because of this matter, Liang Zuoxin also found Yang Xiaotao to discuss some opinions.

However, after hearing about the functions of these things, they immediately changed their minds and guaranteed that not a single screw would be missing in their possession.

Yang Xiaotao also told Liang Zuoxin what Mr. Chen had said about titanium-rhenium alloy. After hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, Liang Zuoxin also attached great importance to it.

A technology that even the alliance covets, the other party will definitely do everything they can to obtain it. As the third defense department of the machinery factory, we must protect this research.

At that moment, Liang Zuoxin sent a squad of security personnel to the steel plant, and asked the security department of the steel plant to shift its forces to the United Star Research Institute.

In his words, it is better to lose a ton of steel than a little alloy.

……

Red Star Machinery Factory, R&D Department.

Yang Xiaotao sat in the top seat, and behind him, Lou Xiaoe was holding a pen and paper to record his thoughts.

Sitting nearby were Zhang Guanyu, Wu Zhe, Li Haonan and others, all of whom were members of the aircraft task force.

"Boss Yang, we have sorted out thirteen sets of engine wreckage, but they are all seriously damaged. In addition, there are some aircraft parts..."

Wu Zhe spoke first and talked about the parts that were sorted out this time.

“Keep the important parts separate!”

After listening to this, Yang Xiaotao replied and Wu Zhe nodded.

Yang Xiaotao felt that these important components should be made of special materials, so they could be used for analysis, and perhaps good materials could be found.

"Boss Yang, we have restored the Model B aircraft!"

After Wu Zhe finished speaking, Wang Xushan spoke immediately. Compared with Wu Zhe, Wang Xushan was even more excited.

The so-called Type B aircraft is the BX-70. Because he didn’t know the exact name, Yang Xiaotao just made up a name!

"We found that this plane has two front wings in front and two large delta wings in the back..."

Wang Xushan said excitedly and handed the drawing to Yang Xiaotao.

Yang Xiaotao took a look and felt it was very familiar.

"Boss Yang, I think we can completely use this layout, if we..."

Before Wang Xushan could finish, Yang Xiaotao knocked on the table and interrupted, "Old Wang, we are going to make fighter jets now. If you want to make large bombers, that's fine. There will be plenty of time for you to do that later!"

Wang Xushan smiled happily after hearing this, "So exciting, so exciting!"

What he didn't know was that the aircraft Yang Xiaotao wanted to develop was based on the Soyuz MiG-25, and the main purpose of developing the MiG-25 was to deal with the United States' XB-70 bomber and Blackbird.

So from this perspective, Yang Xiaotao’s proposal to develop fighter jets can be considered to be in line with the times.

"But we found that the two vertical tails at the back are quite interesting!"

Wang Xushan spoke again and then looked at Yang Xiaotao, because when he was at the train station, he noticed that Yang Xiaotao attached great importance to the design of the vertical tail.

"Do you have any ideas?"

Yang Xiaotao asked, and Wang Xushan nodded immediately. "We discussed it a little bit, and Lao Sun and Lao Zhou mentioned that the function of the vertical tail is to maintain the balance of the aircraft during flight!"

"It's just that foreign countries used to use single wings. This double wing is rare."

"We guess that this double vertical tail design should also be in this aspect!"

After Wang Xushan finished speaking, Wu Zhe interrupted and said, "I have also looked through the Alliance's aircraft over the years and found that this double vertical tail design does exist."

"It seems that the Alliance and the United States are both conducting research and development. I don't think their efforts are in vain. Maybe this is the direction of future development."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, then opened the information in front of him, "This is based on some materials provided by the battlefield in Shanghai!"

Then he gave it to Li Haonan beside him to circulate.

"It clearly states here that this big guy has reached a speed of Mach 3!"

"If they hadn't tried to turn the corner and escape, we might not have been able to hit them!"

"Since the other party uses this double vertical tail method, it means that this is necessary!"

"The design of our next aircraft will follow this!"

Yang Xiaotao spoke directly about his decision.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to object.

Here, the only one who has the qualification to have the final say is Yang Xiaotao!
"Understood, we'll arrange for someone to design it right away!"

Wang Xushan nodded immediately, without any doubt about Yang Xiaotao's words.

"Also, since it has been restored, the relevant design, layout, angle, and other aspects must be carefully confirmed. This is very important to us!"

Yang Xiaotao thought that when it comes to high-speed flight, the aerodynamic requirements will be more stringent.

Wang Xushan was naturally aware of this, as he was studying aerodynamics, but he had never worked with such fast speeds. He immediately nodded in agreement.

"Boss Yang, I have a question!"

"you say!"

Li Haonan handed the information to Wu Zhe, and then said, "I wonder if you have heard of a term, thermal barrier."

"Heat barrier?"

Wu Zhe's eyes widened immediately, then nodded, "I've heard of this."

Yang Xiaotao felt vaguely that he had heard this word somewhere, but he was not quite sure, and then he looked at Li Haonan.

Since he proposed it, it is natural for him to explain it.

Seeing that Wu Zhe had no intention of explaining, Li Haonan spoke up, "What I mean by thermal barrier is that when an aircraft flies at supersonic speed in the atmosphere, the aircraft body interacts with the air, and high-temperature compressed gas forms on the surface of the aircraft, which heats it up."

"So, this temperature that affects the surface of the body is the thermal barrier."

"Generally speaking, the speed of ordinary aircraft will not exceed Mach 2, but our aircraft will exceed Mach 2.5 or even Mach 3, which will definitely face the problem of thermal barriers."

"I have read in the literature that if the speed exceeds Mach 3, the temperature of the aircraft surface will rise to around 350°C."

"This temperature has exceeded the limit temperature of aluminum alloy."

"So, to overcome this thermal barrier, we have to use better high-temperature resistant materials."

"For example, the titanium-rhenium alloy used in our engines, or a slightly inferior titanium alloy."

When the words fell, you could hear a pin drop.
