It will take some time for the exclusive car to be transported, but it will be much faster to fly here on a special plane.
Just when the Star Express Company informed Zhao that the special plane had been completed and the test flight was over, it flew from Chengdu to Kyoto that day. The whole journey took less than two hours, which was much faster than ordinary passenger planes.
This is the normal flying speed of the special plane. In an emergency, this special plane can also fly at supersonic speeds.
The maximum speed of Mach 2 can be reached and the duration can reach one hour. After that, the supersonic state must be exited, otherwise the aircraft will be scrapped.
If the fuselage were not huge and the structure was not designed entirely for speed, then with the engine power level of this aircraft, it would definitely be able to reach higher speeds.
That's it, it has surpassed the cruising speed of most of the current fighter planes in the world. Such a high speed is needed mainly to prevent emergencies, to quickly evacuate dangerous areas, and to prevent fighter planes from intercepting.
In order to achieve this goal, although this fighter aircraft still looks like the I100 model, both the fuselage and the engine are completely different from the I100, which is equivalent to redesigning an aircraft.
This is also the reason why it took so long to develop and manufacture this special plane. Zhao Yi only asked them to improve safety as much as possible, but did not ask them to follow such perverted requirements.
It’s just that after they received Zhao Yi’s request, they consciously conducted research and development in accordance with the highest safety standards, and even asked Star Power Company and Cornerstone Materials Company to develop many new materials.
For example, the original engine materials were upgraded by Cornerstone Materials Company, making the engines developed by Star Power Company more powerful, more durable, and more stable.
In order to cope with high-speed movement, the fuselage also needs to increase its strength accordingly. The original fuselage materials cannot meet this requirement, so this task fell to Cornerstone Materials Company.
Fortunately, when Zhao Yi was designing the exclusive car, he handed over many new materials research methods to Cornerstone Materials Company, allowing them to have full confidence in taking on this task.
The results lived up to expectations. In just four months, qualified fuselage materials were developed.
And it is much better than expected. It is not only lighter than the previous material, but also has higher stress strength and the ability to resist instant strong impact.
The fuselage produced using this fuselage material will not suffer the usual degree of damage as long as it is free-falling at normal speed. Through the interlayer shock absorption technology, the passengers sitting in the cabin will not Fatal danger arises.
This is to prevent the aircraft from crashing and causing danger to passengers, and at the same time, it can also cope with the structural damage caused by the sudden acceleration of the flight speed to a maximum speed of Mach 2 under normal conditions.
It can be said that this is the safest aircraft in the world today, using a large number of exclusive technologies. Star Express has not invested as much energy in the I200 aircraft as this aircraft.
Even the decoration materials in the cabin are different from ordinary materials. For example, the bathtub looks no different from ceramics, but the lightness and lightness of the structure are completely different.
This is to prevent the excessive weight from posing a threat to the safety of passengers when the aircraft falls. There are many other designs like this, and the use of new materials abounds.
When Zhao Yi came to the airport and saw his special plane, he did not have the same sense of expectation as before, but he had a strong sense of pride, because this plane is currently the most advanced passenger plane in the world, and it is owned by his own company. Developed and produced by the company.
When we came to the cabin, although the decoration was luxurious, it did not exceed the level of luxury and luxury. Zhao Yicai would not foolishly cover the entire cabin with gold foil. Although he had the ability, it was inevitably a bit too showy.
And as a technology upstart, such a way to show off wealth is too low-end. Just like this, although it looks like a sophisticated design, it actually costs a lot of money.
Because the technical level contained in it is the most advanced in the world today, and the value of technology, especially the value of top technology, is completely incomparable to gold.
After looking at the entire cabin, Zhao Yi came to the aircraft cockpit. The configuration inside was also different from that of an ordinary passenger aircraft cockpit. The most obvious one was the use of a "holographic helmet".
This kind of equipment is generally equipped for fighter pilots, and even some fighter jets are not equipped with it.
The reason why this aircraft is equipped is mainly because when flying at supersonic speed, all data must be grasped more quickly, so that the captain can respond faster.
Of course, it is also related to the fact that this aircraft is equipped with a weapons interface. Although Star Express cannot produce weapons such as missiles, it can still develop related fire control systems.
In addition, they have been developing military aircraft before, so their research level on aircraft fire control systems is already quite high, so they were integrated into this special plane to help the special plane deal with more dangerous environments.
The captain who will fly this aircraft in the future must have flown a fighter jet, otherwise they will not understand many of the equipment. This aircraft is both a passenger aircraft and a fighter jet.
It's just that it can't perform many special operations of a real fighter. This is due to the aerodynamic layout and size restrictions of the aircraft, but it can also cope with many dangerous scenes in the air.
In addition, there is the communication system. In addition to the ordinary civilian communication frequency band, this aircraft is also equipped with full-band communication equipment to prevent the ordinary communication frequency band from being blocked, and the signal encryption technology has also been improved to a higher level. .
In fact, these are within the scope of ordinary people's thinking. Although the technical content is very high, it is not unimaginable. The real technology, or black technology, is still hidden in the design of the entire cabin of the aircraft.
Even though it is common for fighter jets to fly at supersonic speeds, it is because pilots have undergone long-term training and have high physical fitness, which makes them more adaptable to the entire environment.
But ordinary passengers do not have this physical condition, nor do they have this experience. The sudden increase in flight speed brings huge acceleration that ordinary people cannot bear, and the harm caused is also great.
Moreover, when the aircraft first breaks the sound barrier, it will vibrate. Although technology has reduced this vibration to a minimum, it is not something ordinary people can bear, not to mention that the cabin of this special plane is not designed according to a fighter jet.
In order to solve this problem, the Star Express Company wants to research an acceleration shielding system, which means that it can reduce the danger of acceleration to the human body so that passengers cannot feel the acceleration.
The difficulty of this system is not small, and it is not something that ordinary people can complete. If this technology is really used, then aircraft can be infinitely faster in the future, and fighter jets can be designed to fly faster than high-altitude missiles.
It can be said that if this system can be developed and completed, it will completely change the current aircraft design system and manned space regulations. You must know that the biggest difficulty in manned space is overcoming the harm of acceleration to astronauts.
Such a difficult technology is impossible to achieve with the help of Star Express Company, even with the help of the whole world. Although Star Express Company has good wishes, according to the current technical level, it is completely unrealistic.
Since Star Express Company cannot realize this whimsical idea, it can only turn to the omnipotent boss and let Zhao Yi solve this problem.
To be honest, Zhao was confused as soon as he received this request. What the hell was this request? It was completely impossible and completely inconsistent with the theorems of physics.
This request, which obviously violated common sense in physics, made Zhao Yi wonder if there was something wrong with their researchers. Zhao Yi directly rejected their request and severely criticized them.
As a result, the researchers said aggrievedly that they did not intend to completely solve this problem, which was impossible, but only expressed their hope to reduce the harm.
At the same time, they also gave their idea, which is to use the characteristics of the acceleration period and the hollow cabin structure to design a sophisticated system to reduce the problem of excessive acceleration and make the acceleration more stable when it is reflected in the cabin.
In this way, although the overall instantaneous acceleration of the aircraft is very large, the acceleration inside the cabin is spread over a long period of time, reducing the instantaneous acceleration to avoid danger to the passengers' internal organs and skeletons.
After hearing the researcher's description, Zhao Yi's attitude softened. In this way, the requirements are quite reasonable, and it is not impossible to achieve them through some ingenious designs.
Since the civilian nature of the researchers was ruled out, Zhao Yi readily accepted the task. If they were allowed to study it slowly, he didn't know it would take until the year of the monkey. In addition, it was needed for his own special plane, so he just studied it casually. .
After half a month of research, and with the help of Zhou Ling, an inertial reciprocating system that overcomes excessive instantaneous acceleration was born.
In order to achieve the maximum effect in a limited space, the system designed by Zhao Yi is very sophisticated and very difficult to manufacture. Precision instrument companies must upgrade their CNC machining centers, which cannot be achieved at the current level.
So Zhao Yi had to worry about the CNC machining center technology of the Precision Instrument Company. According to the current speed of technological upgrading, it would take more than ten years to meet the processing requirements.
After solving the processing problem, the installation problem is also a big problem. Many structures are difficult to install, and the accuracy error is slightly larger, resulting in a huge difference in the results.
Although Zhao Yi could complete the work by himself, as the boss, he did not care about this and let Star Express Company search for suitable talents across the country.
This type of talent does not necessarily have to have a high degree of education, but dexterity and dexterity are a must. Although the requirements are very high, it is not impossible to find them among the country's 1 billion population.
Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man, and the Star Express Company immediately entrusted a human resources company to carry out recruitment activities across the country, and the annual salary reached an astonishing 50,000 yuan.
This annual salary may not seem high, but you must know that the RMB at this time is still very valuable, equivalent to an annual salary of 25,000 US dollars, which is also a high salary in developed countries in Europe and the United States.
Therefore, anyone who thinks they have some ability can apply. Fortunately, the human resources company has offices all over the country. These applicants do not have to rush to Kyoto, otherwise the round-trip ticket will be a big expense.
After a month of recruitment, we finally selected the best of the best and recruited three employees who slightly met the requirements. Then Star Express Company conducted relevant training for them for a month, so that they could fully master this structure and be aware of it.
After making sure that they all had the relevant structures in mind, they started to try to assemble the inertial reciprocating system.
The result was still not ideal, and it failed nine times in a row. Finally, on the tenth time, through the close cooperation of three people, the assembly was successfully completed.
When the system was finally assembled successfully, Su Miao made a special call to tell him how difficult it was. Just for this system, Star Express Company invested a lot of manpower and material resources.
If it were not for Zhao Yi, Star Express Company would never do this. It is completely uneconomical. Production costs are rising steadily, and only Zhao Yi can do this regardless of cost.
Of course, there are benefits. Through this system, Star Express Company has a new understanding of the production of high-precision components, and Precision Instrument Company has also gained better CNC machining center technology.
More importantly, this system can not only be used on Zhao Yi's special plane, but also on military aircraft.
After military aircraft are equipped with this system, they can perform more incredible actions in the air, which can greatly improve the combat level of the aircraft.
After watching the entire plane, Zhao Yi felt itchy. He wanted to fly this plane and soar in the sky. However, he had not obtained an airplane pilot's license and could not drive it himself.
At the same time, I don't seem to have a reason to go out. I can't just fly around in the sky for no reason. Otherwise, I will probably be locked before I fly for a long time.
Moreover, now that air traffic control is so strict, it is more troublesome to apply for a flight, especially for this kind of private jet. It is even more difficult to apply for it. Even with Zhao Yi's status, applying is not an easy task.
More importantly, Feide Airlines has not assigned crew to the plane, so it is impossible to take off immediately.
Since the plane was just picked up from Star Express, the procedures for entrusting it to the airline have not yet been completed.
Moreover, arranging crew members cannot be done in a short while. The entire domestic aviation industry is currently in relatively short supply of crew members, and it is impossible to allow crew members from other normal flights to fly Zhao Yifei's private jet.
Even if the airline company he flies to might really do this to please the boss, Zhao Yi would not let them do it. Company management is nothing but child's play. Everything must comply with rules and regulations and not be neglected based on people. (End of chapter)
