Go back in time and be a chaebol

Chapter 783 Nanyang’s trump card (first update, please subscribe)
An exhibition showed the strength of Nanyang Aviation Industry to the world. When the F-1B fighter jet broke through the sound barrier, the whole world thought that this was the limit of Nanyang's aviation industry, at least to a certain extent. Of course, in the face of Nanyang's aviation industry that shocked the world one after another, Many people attribute it to "the legacy of the Third Reich."

"The scientific achievements of Nanyang are nothing more than the technological heritage of the Third Reich!"

Faced with such rhetoric from the outside world, Nanyang certainly has no explanation, because...those people are also Nanyang people, and they have no idea what kind of shock the Nanyang people will bring to the world.

On this day, before the excitement of the exhibition had subsided, a motorcade drove into Wanhujiao, and soon the motorcade went straight to the launch site on the seaside.

After the convoy arrived at the launch site, Li Yian took a look at the missile towering on the launcher in front of him when he got out of the car.

"Is this a Type 4 missile?"

There is no need to hide it now. The peaceful use of atomic energy and the exploration of the universe are just demonstrations. Now that the atomic bombs in Nanyang have been released, there is no need to hide anything anymore.

A missile is a missile.

Li Yian asked directly.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

While introducing the plan, Eugene showed the sketch of the plan. Looking at this sketch of the plan that was both familiar and unfamiliar, Li Yian's eyes were filled with a little desire.

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

"The draft has come out. It adopts a bundled type. The rocket structure is cross-shaped. The central main rocket and four booster rockets are based on the A12 four-chamber rocket engine and corresponding modifications..."

But at this time, what Li Yian was concerned about was not just its range, but another issue.

"Compared with Type III, its rocket engine has stronger thrust. At that time, Dr. Konrader encountered the problem of unstable combustion when trying to expand the combustion chamber. Later, in order to overcome this problem, he decided to divide the combustion chamber into four A smaller combustion chamber, fed by a common turbopump, solves the problem..."

Because it’s 52 years now!
Not 57!
It can be a rocket that sends satellites into space, or it can be a long-range intercontinental ballistic missile that sends a nuclear warhead weighing several tons to tens of thousands of kilometers.

The Dr. Konzel mentioned by Eugene is currently the core engineer of Nanyang's rocket engine. It is under his leadership that a number of rocket engines have been developed one after another and a group of Nanyang's own rocket engine engineers have also been trained.

"Is the upper stage the second stage of the rocket?"

When raising this question, Li Yian didn't even notice that his voice was even a little nervous.

Moreover, with its help, Nanyang can also send artificial satellites into space!

When he proposed the strap-on rocket plan two years ago, it was just an idea, but now these engineers have turned his idea into a reality.

Eugene nodded vigorously. The dream of flying into the sky that started in Peenemünde would finally become a reality in his hands.

He finally asked, looking at Eugene expectantly.

"Is the draft finalized?"

"Yes, Your Excellency, in order to increase its hit accuracy, we developed a second-stage rocket. After the first-stage fuel is exhausted, the second stage ignites and separates from the first stage. This not only increases the range, but also Because there is no missile interference, its accuracy is also greatly improved..."

Eugene said pointing at the missile.

After listening to Eugene's explanation, Li Yian deliberately walked closer to observe the launch box of the missile. The four smaller combustion chambers formed the rocket engine. Then he turned his eyes upward and looked at the warhead and missile body. The joint part, asked.

The reason why I came to Wanhujiao on the third day just after New Year's Day was because of this big guy. Although its range is only 3500 kilometers, it is not up to the standard of an intercontinental missile, and it is even a bit too high or too low. Yes, but having a medium-range missile with a range of over 3000 kilometers was beyond Li Yian's expectation.

"Then...let's begin!"

"So, do you have any idea about the rocket of the "Partner Plan"?"

It's just that the uses are different. The reason why we are so excited is that, to put it bluntly, it is because of it that Nanyang truly has a nuclear counterattack capability.

When he started speaking, Li Yian even licked his lips involuntarily. While they were talking, an engineer next to him looked at the sketch from time to time. He even walked past the drawing frame.

A few hours later, a Wanhu Type IV "rocket" soared into the sky as people watched.

After the missile accurately hit the target 3500 kilometers away, Li Yian did not return to Chang'an immediately, but stayed in Wanhujiao to learn about the progress of other projects. Although Wanhujiao is the aerospace center of Nanyang, the experiments conducted here are not limited to exploring space. It is also the missile research and development center of Nanyang, and anti-aircraft missiles are also one of the projects.

Because of the many projects being developed, the entire security zone is divided into seventeen areas. There are factories, research institutions, and of course various test sites in these areas, so various tests are conducted every day.

The Thirteenth District is an area dedicated to developing anti-aircraft missiles. Although Nanyang's demand for anti-aircraft missiles is not that strong.

But Li Yi'an really wanted to know how vulnerable Nanyang, with several cities at its core, was in the face of nuclear weapons.

Under this situation, the development of air defense missiles and even anti-ballistic missile technology has become an inevitable choice. However, judging from the current research progress, it seems that the progress is not very big.

"Our anti-aircraft missile is improved on the basis of the "Daughter of the Rhine". In addition to improving the aerodynamic layout, the biggest improvement is that its guidance method is changed from radio command to semi-active radar homing..."

As the chief engineer of the "Daughter of the Rhine" air defense missile, Kramer will inevitably use it as a basis in the process of developing air defense missiles. But despite this, he still seemed very proud, because after several years of development, the anti-aircraft missiles in front of him have undergone radical changes. Not only the guidance method has changed, but even the acoustic fuze of the warhead has been changed to a radio proximity fuze. , the application of a series of new technologies has made it increasingly mature.

Looking at the anti-aircraft missile in front of him that looked somewhat similar to the SAM 2 missile, after briefly understanding its performance and looking at the ten-meter-long missile on the anti-aircraft gun launcher, Li Yi'an asked.

"Would such a large missile be too bulky?"

It seems that this aspect also needs to be accelerated.

"It's not bulky, that's how it should be."

Kramer answered directly. In his opinion, missiles should be this big. When they were in Germany, they even used a smaller version of the V2 missile to develop anti-aircraft missiles.

"What I mean is, is there any way to compress its size? Well, the missile length should be controlled within five meters. As for the missile diameter, it should be controlled between 40 and 41 centimeters. Only such a miniaturized missile can It may be installed on warships. Yes, warships also need anti-aircraft missiles.”

After listening to your request, Kramer said directly.

"41 centimeters, there's no way the guide head can fit in such a small space! Its guide head is a full 68 centimeters in diameter!"

"Then find ways to shrink it. Now that integrated circuits have been invented, try to combine them as much as possible."

Nanyang's electronic technology is still very advanced and should be properly utilized. Li Yian said directly.

"Such a big guy will definitely not be able to get on a warship. What Nanyang needs is ground-to-air missiles that can be used by both land and sea, and even missiles that can be used by the army and navy. After all, our army is limited in size. Therefore, it must be at least universal for the army and navy. Only in this way can purchases be increased.”

While emphasizing that the landing is universal for the navy, Li Yian pointed to the exposed missile and said.

"There is also the weather in Nanyang. The weather in Nanyang is hot and rainy. The missile is exposed and the electronic components are bound to be affected. This will definitely affect the reliability of the missile. In this case, can it be packed in a box? …”

As Li Yian spoke, he took out his notepad and drew a simple sketch.

Combining the storage and transportation box with the launch tube is more conducive to the long-term storage of the missile, especially in the high temperature and rainy environment of Southeast Asia. Sealed storage and transportation boxes can ensure that missile electronic components will not be affected by moisture, thus affecting their performance - this is the experience of the US military in Vietnam.

Moreover, this kind of launch trailer will give it a certain degree of maneuverability. If it is a fixed position enemy aircraft can easily avoid it by turning a corner outside its range.

Even the appearance of the missile was drawn by Li Yian himself. The missile overall looks somewhat similar to the Phoenix air-to-air missile from another world.
When Li Yian drew a sketch of the missile and launch vehicle and handed it to Kramer, he looked at the sketch and wondered.

"Is this okay?"

"Trust me, it will definitely work."

Li Yi'an completely acted like no one knows missiles better than me. That's the fact. Not only does he understand, but he also understands far beyond the times.
After that, he looked at Kramer and the other engineers in the project team and said.

"Although under nuclear balance, war may never break out, but we must consider another possibility - once a war breaks out, it will definitely be devastating!"

"Under certain circumstances, the current urbanization in Nanyang is also extremely dangerous. Under the premise of nuclear war, once the enemy's long-range bombers break through the air defense, they can carry out a devastating blow to our cities, and anti-aircraft missiles are the only way to avoid this The last line of defense when this happens.”

Although I know that the possibility of a war breaking out is...zero, there are still some things that need to be said.

"In short, the safety of the 46 million people in Nanyang depends on you!"
