Chapter 530 The first engineering prototype

Tianfeng Technology Company.

The "Black Ghost" drone successfully passed all static tests. Then, the first engineering prototype entered the structural assembly in the No. 1 assembly workshop.

The main beam of the aircraft has been steadily placed on the assembly bench, and the assembly workers are installing structural parts. With the first assembly experience, everyone is obviously much more skilled in assembly this time.

Such an important assembly, accompanied by Zhou Yinding and Lei Yong, Li Tianfeng came to the assembly workshop. When Li Tianfeng arrived, Li Dawu was at the assembly site.

Li Dawudao: "Boss, the assembly is relatively smooth. In a few days, this aircraft will be able to complete the overall structural assembly and start to enter the next step of the assembly work."

The structural assembly is completed, before the avionics system is installed and the on-board equipment is installed, the engineering prototype will also be sent to the coating workshop for overall spraying, including the coating of stealth materials.

Li Tianfeng pointed a little and watched everyone's assembly. The workers installed a structural piece on the main beam of the aircraft, aimed at the installation hole, tightened the nuts, and when tightening, they strictly followed the tightening order and torque requirements of the process requirements.

Such assembly is not a bit careless, and has extremely strict technical requirements. For example, the tightening of nuts is not only in sequence, but also in tightening torque requirements.

The workers used torque wrenches to tighten them one by one according to the process requirements. After the installation of this structural part was completed, they carefully checked whether it met the assembly process requirements.

The parts are assembled, with technical requirements and assembly dimension requirements, and inspections are required one by one. If the assembly requirements are not met, reassembly or adjustments are required.

Li Tianfeng looked at it for a long time and then said, "Dawu, have all the supporting components be completed?"

Generally speaking, the required parts must be matched before assembly, but Li Tianfeng knows that the supporting parts of this engineering prototype may not be complete.

Sure enough, Li Dawudao: "The supporting components of all parts are basically completed, but in terms of airborne equipment, there is a temporary lack of some, such as high-definition camera equipment, synthetic aperture radar, etc.."

Airborne equipment is developed and manufactured by relevant scientific research institutions. After the manufacturing is completed, it will be sent to Tianfeng Technology Company for final assembly.

Li Dawudao: "Boss, these things are temporarily vacant. But they have been implemented and will be delivered to our company soon, which will not affect the assembly of the first engineering prototype."

Li Tianfeng nodded with satisfaction. Li Dawu had been engaged in technical work before. This time, he changed his role and entered the field of production management. He served as the deputy general manager of production and manufacturing at Chengnan Base and was responsible for the production process.

The first engineering prototype was assembled in one week. Because of the integrated design, even if it was assembled for the second time, the progress was relatively fast.

Painting workshop.

This engineering prototype entered the coating workshop for painting. The workshop uses advanced coating systems, digitalization and automation, reflecting very high efficiency. It completes all coating in just a few days, including the coating of new stealth materials.

The entire coating process is simply pleasing to the eye. Several robotic hands are under the control of the computer. Not only are they painted quickly, but they also have first-class coating quality.

After finishing the painting, the "Black Ghost" drone changed completely after coming out of the assembly workshop. The whole machine appeared black and gray on the upper and lower sides, showing a special beauty.

When the plane entered the assembly workshop again, the employees of the assembly workshop were surprised and even many people watched from afar.

"Wow, so beautiful!"

"This is our 'black ghost', it's true!"

"How great it would be if I could take a photo with this plane!"

“…”

Everyone looked polite and talked about their heads and their faces were full of joy. Assembling workers who were about to prepare for the next assembly work suddenly became more and more energetic.

After the aircraft was painted, the fuselage coating was not thick, and even some rivets and screws were clearly visible, and some gaps could be seen. This is exactly the opposite of the J-20, but it is a bit similar to the F22 fighter.

There is no need to spray the advanced stealth material very thickly, while the J-20 fighter jet has poor stealth material, and the stealth material coating is very thick, covering all the rivets and gaps.

The stealth material of the "Black Ghost" drone is very advanced, covering the surface of the fuselage like a thin layer of varnish.

Assembling technicians walked up, looked at the plane with relish, then took the tools and began the next step of assembly according to the process requirements.

The two turbofan 21b engines were ready long ago. The engine compartment of the drone was opened and workers began to install the engine.

If you are careful, you will find that the design of the engine compartment is very special, especially the tail spray position of the engine compartment, which is absolutely different. Not only does it have a special serrated shape, but the color of the spray is also slightly darker.

Such a special design greatly reduces infrared radiation, and this drone has excellent infrared stealth effect.

The high temperature of the engine working is the main infrared source. In terms of design, Li Tianfeng fully considered this and adopted a relatively advanced design to greatly reduce the infrared radiation during engine working.

Two turbofan 21b engines were installed into the engine compartment, and then the installation of avionics system and airborne equipment began. During the entire assembly process, Zhou Yining, Lei Yong and Li Dawu stayed in the No. 1 assembly workshop almost every day.

The senior leaders of the Chengnan base stay here every day and attach so much importance to it. Whether it is technicians or assembly workers, everyone works very hard. This engineering prototype looks like a day.

………

It is close to the production and manufacturing plant area, and the airport is the south base of Chengnan. In the tower on the side of the airport, there is a huge hall on the top floor, but this is not an ordinary hall.

This is the control hall of the "Black Ghost" drone, the control and command center of the drone, and the entire control and command center, Tianfeng Technology Company designed it itself, Li Tianfeng's technical inspection, and now, the debugging here has been completed.

In the hall, in addition to the technicians wearing Tianfeng Technology Company's work clothes, there are also some soldiers, and there are still a large number.

This is sent by the troops to learn, familiar with the control system, and learn about the operation of drones. The military also has a control and command center for drones, and has been basically completed.

In the control and command center, there are various instruments and equipment and display screens. One of the middle-aged man wearing Tianfeng Technology Company's work clothes is obviously the person in charge here.

The person in charge said: "Connect the Beidou navigation system!"

As everyone operates, the display displays:

The navigation system is connected successfully!

Read drone parameters!

Simulation flight starts...

………

In December, it was already cold outside. Early in the morning, Li Tianfeng still started running in the morning as usual. The air was cold and the dry grass next to the road was already frost. Li Tianfeng thought to himself that such weather was really cold enough.

After returning from running, breakfast was ready. Wang Ruobing thoughtfully served millet porridge for Li Tianfeng, while Li Tianfeng was drinking porridge and eating fried dough sticks.

"Tianfeng, eat another egg. This is a native egg. Two days ago, your second uncle from your hometown came over and brought a basket of native eggs."

Li Tianfeng has been busy these days and has not met his second uncle. He just heard his parents say it later.

After taking the egg, Li Tianfeng ate it with relish, looking in a good mood and was very happy. Even Wang Ruobing couldn't help asking: "Tianfeng, I'm so happy today!"

Li Tianfeng said: "Today is a good day for our Tianfeng Technology Company, the prototype of the project was officially launched."

Wang Ruobing was happy and took another egg for Li Tianfeng, "Tianfeng, then eat another egg, a fried dough stick, and two eggs, exactly one hundred points."

Li Tianfeng was happy and thought to himself, hoping that his project prototype would score 100 points.

Princess Wang Ruobing smiled and took advantage of Li Tianfeng's happiness, Wang Ruobing said, "Tianfeng, I went to see Feifei yesterday, and we also walked around the streets together."

Li Tianfeng was stunned, and then laughed again, "Wife, I found that I am the happiest man in the world."

Wang Ruobing laughed and scolded: "Virtue!"

After having breakfast happily, Li Tianfeng went to work. When he went out, Wang Ruobing also gave a considerate advice to drive carefully and slowly.

Chengnan Base, No. 1 assembly workshop.

The wind was cold outside, and the assembly workshop was as warm as spring. The project prototype had been assembled and passed the inspection. Now, the plane was covered with festive red silk and was quietly in the assembly workshop. The workshop was smooth on the ground, and there was even a reflection of the plane.

Li Tianfeng and Zhang Haiping walked into the assembly workshop side by side. Behind them, not only were there senior executives of Tianfeng Technology Company, such as Sun Kang, Xu Lilong, Zhang Can, Zhou Yiding, Zeng Qinghai, Sun Xiaoping and others, but also a large number of military personnel.

Among these military personnel, there were two major generals. Everyone followed Li Tianfeng and Zhang Haiping and walked into the huge No. 1 assembly workshop.

These military personnel basically came to the No. 1 assembly workshop for the first time. After entering this workshop, they first shocked the huge here. Standing in the huge factory, people seemed so small.

However, everyone quickly came back from the shock because they saw the "Black Ghost" drone.

There is no difference between engineering prototypes and formal aircraft, but the uses are different. Engineering prototypes are mainly used for a series of verification work in drone engineering.

This drone has beautiful shapes, full of streamlined beauty, and even has a bit of science fiction, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Many military personnel even had excitement in their eyes, and their steps were a little faster invisibly. Everyone followed Li Tianfeng and Zhang Haiping and quickly walked to the drone.
