Chapter 637 The First Prototype

Tianfeng Technology Company, Chengnan Base.

In the huge No. 1 assembly plant, the first prototype of the Y-30 transport aircraft is undergoing final assembly because this is the official Y-30 transport aircraft. After the final assembly is completed, the aircraft will also undergo a series of flight tests and verifications.

More than a dozen assembly technical workers are busy. Judging from the assembly progress, the aircraft has completed the assembly of the main structural parts.

Some workers are wiring and installing the circuit and electrical parts of the aircraft, some are installing accessories, and some are installing skins.

The skin of the Y-30 transport aircraft is a major technological innovation, which completely subverts the previous tradition. It no longer uses aluminum alloy metal skin, but instead changes it to a non-metal skin of "Hercules" material. The installation of the skin no longer uses the previous traditional riveting process, but uses self-locking screws.

The skin comes in various shapes, basically similar to the shape of an aircraft. Install the skin and lock it with a self-locking screw, which is very fast and beautiful.

In the past, rivets were used to rivet rivets, and there were many rivet protrusions on the skin (mainly rivet heads). But now it is different because there are countersink holes on the skin, and the self-locking screws of the countersunk heads are used. The skin looks very flat.

There are also several assembly technicians in the cargo warehouse. The cargo warehouse of the 30 transport aircraft is very large and spacious, and it transports dozens of standard containers at a time.

With the assembly experience of the first test and verification machine, these assembly technical workers are proficient in their movements and use all general assembly tools, and the assembly progresses relatively quickly.

The overall assembly of the entire 30 transport aircraft basically uses common general tools, and rarely uses special assembly tools. It can be seen that the daily maintenance, repairability and daily maintenance costs of the transport aircraft are fully taken into account during the design.

Next to the transporter, there are four turbofan 30 engines, which are turbofan 30b engines. The turbofan 30a engines for large civilian passenger aircraft are turbofan 30a engines. The engines used for the Y-30 and Y-25 transporters are turbofan 30b engines. There is almost no big difference in appearance between the two, but there are certain differences in performance.

The turbofan 30a engine is more suitable for large civilian passenger aircraft, while the turbofan 30b is more suitable for large military transport aircraft. It can be used for harsh conditions, etc.

Li Tianfeng, Xu Lilong, Sun Kang, Zhou Yiding, Lei Yong and others all came to the No. 1 assembly workshop. In the huge No. 1 assembly workshop, there is a "Black Ghost" drone production line and a total assembly of the Y-30 transport aircraft. In the future, there is also a total assembly production line of the Y-25 transport aircraft.

Seeing this huge, already in its infancy, Xu Lilong sighed: "Boss, it's worthy of being the Y-30 transport aircraft, it's so big!"

Sun Kang next to him said, "It's not only very big, but also very distinctive. The first thing you look like is the thick body."

The Y-30 transport aircraft is very large. Although the fuselage is not the longest among all transport aircraft, it is definitely the thickest and widest. It is larger than the largest transport aircraft in the world, the 225, which is currently the largest transport aircraft in the world. So at first glance, the most attractive thing is the very thick fuselage.

Xu Lilong smiled and said, "Our Y-30 transport aircraft is nicknamed 'Big Fatty', and its wide body design is one of its characteristics."

While everyone was talking, they approached the Y-30 transport plane. First, they saw the appearance of the plane, and then they also boarded the Y-30 transport plane that was being assembly.

The same was true for Li Tianfeng. He boarded the Y-30 transport plane and everyone entered from the rear of the plane. The huge hatch door at the tail was opening, and the nose of the plane was also lifted up.

Get on the plane, walk into the warehouse, and take a look. You can see the other end from one end of the warehouse (because the nose is lifted up). The warehouse looks wide and unique.

Because some of the skins and interior panels have not been installed in place, you can directly see the structural design of the warehouse and the shape of the structural parts.

Xu Lilong said: "Boss, although I am an amateur, I feel it is unusual when I see the structural design of this warehouse. This is our 'Tianfeng-style' structural design."

Li Tianfeng nodded and smiled slightly.

As the general manager of the design technology of the Y-30 transport aircraft, Lei Yong said: "Yes, this is one of the advanced designs used by our Y-30 transport aircraft. This is the 'Tianfeng style' design, which has international patents."

Such structural design technology completely subverts tradition, opens a brand new design door, and enters a brand new design field. Compared with traditional aircraft structural design, it is more than one level higher.

Having international patents means that other aviation industry companies cannot copy such designs. If they also want to adopt such structural designs, they must be approved by Tianfeng Technology and pay the patent fee.

Li Tianfeng is naturally very clear about the advanced and outstanding aspects of this structural design. The Y-30 transport aircraft adopts such a structural design, and the Y-25 transport aircraft also adopts such a design.

This structural design not only greatly simplifies the process and greatly reduces the overall weight of the aircraft, but also makes the aircraft stronger, has higher structural strength and is more durable. In layman's terms, it means it is more solid.

Everyone looked at the warehouse, and Li Tianfeng became interested, "Prepare the nose down, let's go into the cockpit to take a look."

On Monday, Ding immediately directed the assembly workers, and the huge nose of the transport aircraft slowly lowered. Then, Li Tianfeng happily entered the cockpit of the transport aircraft.

The cockpit is very wide, but it is just a basic structure, avionics system, a series of instruments, control systems, etc. have not been installed yet.

Even without these things, we can see the advanced level of cockpit design. Li Tianfeng personally said: "The cockpit design of the Y-30 transport aircraft also took a lot of effort, using advanced digital control systems, and fully considering ergonomics..."

Li Tianfeng personally introduced the cockpit design, and it can be seen that even if it is just a transport aircraft and is not an advanced fighter, the cockpit design is not simple and very advanced. It is not only advanced in technology, but also very comfortable in operation.

The seats in the cockpit have been installed. Li Tianfeng was in great interest and sat on the main driver's seat. It felt good and very comfortable.

Xu Lilong even said: "Boss, if you have the chance in the future, I really hope to take the Y-30 transport plane and finally play a guest role as a co-pilot."

Sun Kang smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, can you fly a plane?"

Xu Lilong said: "This is a transport plane. The requirements are not that high. I can't drive. I can learn it. I have never eaten pork and I have never seen pigs run."

Li Tianfeng also smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, even if it is just a transport plane, it is not that easy to drive. However, if you want to take the Yun30 transport plane in the future, there are more opportunities."

As a manufacturer of the Y-30 transport aircraft, the executives of the company want to ride and experience it. This is not too difficult.

Everyone went to the No. 1 assembly workshop for almost half a day. Finally, when they were about to get off work at noon, everyone left here with unfulfilled satisfaction.

After watching the assembly of the first Y-30 transport aircraft, not only Li Tianfeng, but everyone's hearts were the same. Everyone was full of expectations, hoping that this Y-30 transport aircraft would fly into the blue sky as soon as possible.

………

In the office.

I looked around at the Chengnan base in the morning, especially after staying in the No. 1 assembly workshop for so long, Li Tianfeng knew that in less than a month, the Y-30 transport aircraft would definitely make its first first flight.

The first flight of the Y-30 transport aircraft!

Thinking about it, Li Tianfeng couldn't help but feel a little excited. Large transport aircraft, especially super transport aircraft like the Y-30 transport aircraft, are completely a reflection of a country's aviation industry's strength. Such large transport aircraft are often called heavy weapons of a great country!

A great weapon for a great country!

The Y-30 transport aircraft is our heavy weapon! It is not only a reflection of our aviation industry strength, but also the Air Force's future strategic air transport force.

There is news that the military is considering forming a new airborne division based on the Y-30 transport aircraft, forming a strategic transportation force, etc.

Sitting on his office chair, Li Tianfeng thought about the Y-30 transport aircraft being assembled, and also thought about the Y-25 transport aircraft that will be assembled in the first verification and verification machine.

Li Tianfeng even thought of a large civil passenger aircraft that will be produced in the future. Li Tianfeng has already drawn a large number of sketches for this passenger aircraft. These sketches are stacked in large stacks. Li Tianfeng thought in his mind that in another one or two months, drawing some sketches can be carried out to design and research and development of this large civil passenger aircraft.

However, it seems that there is no hurry, because the construction of Tianxin Aviation City has just begun and it is still early. After thinking about this, Li Tianfeng opened the website.

During this period, Li Tianfeng often watched the news online and paid attention to the situation of the British-Arab war. A local war broke out between the two countries last month.

The two countries dispatched navies and air forces, and air combat carried out more than a dozen large and small air combat, including air strikes, strikes on ground targets, and air combat between fighter jets of both sides.

When the war broke out between the two countries, many commentators and analysts pointed out that Argentina must repeat the same mistakes and swallow the bitter fruit of defeat, but the development of the war was much beyond everyone's expectations.

In the eyes of the outside world, whether it is the navy or the air force, Argentina occupies an absolute disadvantage. The British Navy was once the most powerful navy in the world. Although it is now on a downhill road, the lean camel is bigger than a horse.

Needless to say, the Royal Air Force of the United Kingdom is one of the most powerful air forces, equipped with various fighter jets such as "Tornado", "Java", "Harrier", and "Falcon".

There seems to be a big gap between these two countries, but the development of the war was beyond everyone's expectations, and Argentina actually gained the upper hand.

Li Tianfeng opened the website and saw another big news!
