Chapter 654 Hh01 Aircraft
Chapter 654 hh-01 aircraft
Tech towns are popular, at least the concept is widely recognized around the world. After Heiyun Group announced the establishment of Heiyun Town in the New Territories of Hong Kong, the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, France, West Germany, Israel, Saudi Arabia and other countries have successively announced the establishment of their own technology towns. In just half a month, more than 20 countries around the world have announced the establishment of more than 30 technology towns.
For a time, science and technology towns have become scientific research bases in various countries. Countries that have not announced the establishment of science and technology towns are embarrassed to say that their country is leading in science and technology. A country without a technological town means that it is technologically backward in the world, and it feels like it cannot hold its head high.
But these have nothing to do with Bao Zixuan, after explaining all the matters in Heiyun Town. Bao Zixuan has entered into a tense working state. The aircraft is about to enter the test flight stage, and many links must be involved.
The German technology that Bao Zixuan brought back from Poland has made another major breakthrough. Without a military industrial license, he would not dare to produce it. This is why Bao Zixuan must ask the British to issue a military industrial license to Heiyun Group, and it will come in handy this time.
The German Ho-229 is a single-seat jet fighter-bomber. It has a crew of 1 and the fixed armament is planned to be 4 Mk108 or 2 MK103 30mm cannons. Can carry two 500kg SD500 bombs or 55mm R4M rockets. The plan also includes night combat and two-seat training versions equipped with radar, as well as an unarmed reconnaissance version.
The production aircraft is expected to be 7.47 meters long, 2.8 meters high, with a wingspan of 16.75 meters, an empty weight of 4.6 tons, and a total weight of 9 tons. The power unit uses two Junkers JUMO-004B turbojet engines with a thrust of 900 kilograms; the maximum designed range is 3170 kilometers. , the combat radius is 1,900 kilometers, the maximum speed is 997 kilometers per hour, and the ceiling is planned to reach an astonishing 16,000 meters! All these theoretical design performances were unique in the world at the time, not only surpassing all piston propeller fighters of the Allied Forces at that time, but also surpassing another German jet fighter Me262.
Limited by the technology at the time, the German ho229 aircraft was not put into actual combat. Moreover, many parts of the fuselage are not made of metal, mainly because Germany's resources were somewhat out of date at the end of the war.
The imaginative German engineers actually thought of using metal skin on the wood. Although this reduced the weight of the aircraft to a certain extent, it also paved the way for the instability of the fuselage.
The tailless bomber fighter produced by Heiyun Group is code-named hh-01, and it has made bold attempts on many key technologies.

The hh-01 aircraft is basically made of titanium alloy, otherwise it would not be so light. Aero-engine thrust has made great progress in recent decades, and the jet test engine technology during World War II was very immature. After all, people were just trying to develop jet engines at that time, and the technology and stability were far behind what they are now.
As a top aviation power engineer, Bao Zixuan is definitely a world-class expert in the field of aircraft engines for later generations. Therefore, Heiyun's engine level is ahead of its time, which is why the engine thrust is so huge.
At the same time, the airborne electronic equipment has made significant progress compared with the World War II period. The airborne computer can quickly calculate the optimal flight attitude. At the same time, many instrument panels are replaced with LCD screens, which reduces the weight of the aircraft to a certain extent.
Everyone was excited when they saw this aircraft that seemed to come from an alien planet. Only Bao Zixuan didn't have too many emotions. After all, compared to the American B2 bomber, the one in front of him was just a little brother.
Where are the technical reserves of Heiyun Group? Although they have a complete set of German drawings. However, we don’t dare to upgrade the aircraft so much at once like the Americans. Taking too big a step may cause problems.
Moreover, it is not uncommon for a private company to produce strategic bombers. This aircraft can only be characterized as a tactical bomber. We don’t dare to be too high-profile now. Americans already have strong opinions on the Black Cloud Group; if they hadn’t been unclear about its relationship with the Soviet Union, they would have taken action long ago.
Bao Zixuan looked at an old man with an obvious Germanic face next to the plane and said with a smile: "Mr. Horton, you really did not disappoint."
This old man is Frank Horton, the youngest son of Walter Horton, one of the chief designers of the ho229 aircraft. After obtaining the scientific and technological data from Germany during World War II, the Heiyun Group searched for relevant engineering and technical personnel around the world.
We are not too far away from World War II now. If we enter the 21st century, it will probably be useless even if we find people. It is hard to say whether they can walk.
Of course, the search is mainly in Germany and Switzerland. Many top German scientists have gone to the United States; but the Americans will not let them leave easily, and Bao Zixuan does not want to get into trouble. In addition, some German scientists went to the Soviet Union. After being drained of their value, they were basically sent to Siberia to work as lumberjacks. It was difficult for them to come back alive.
Hard work paid off, and with the help of the Soviet KGB, the staff of the Black Cloud Group finally found Frank Horton in a small town in Switzerland. He initially disagreed with the Heiyun Group's invitation. After all, developing aircraft with his uncle and father was a secret operation at that time. Germany is a defeated country again. Wouldn't it be a joy to come out at this time?
But after seeing some of the drawings, the old German man finally couldn't hold back his curiosity. Soon I came to Xiangjiang with the staff of Heiyun. After some exchanges with Bao Zixuan, I agreed to help develop the hh-01 aircraft.
Bao Zixuan Chengruo could name the plane hh-01, one with the initials of Heiyun and the other with the initials of Horton. It can be regarded as a continuation of the aircraft heritage, but what Frank Horton didn't know was that the initial letter of China's bombers was also "h". But it's useless to know. It's not so easy to get on the pirate ship and get off easily.
Through this incident, Bao Zixuan clearly realized the power of the Soviet KGB, and there were many things that others didn't know. Just to see if it was necessary. Although the Holden family helped Germany develop aircraft, fortunately they didn't do anything particularly egregious. We can't kill everyone, so that Bao Zixuan can benefit.
In order to find more German engineers and scientists during World War II, Bao Zixuan Chengruo just wanted to find one. Depending on your ability, the KGB can get more than $50,000. Money bagging the richest man never disappoints, and the KGB is still very willing to accept this commission.
In fact, Bao Zixuan also formed a good relationship and is now a German scientist. When the Soviet Union collapsed, many scientists and engineers would go to work abroad, and there were many treasures worth exploring in the Soviet Union. Being able to establish relations with the KGB was equivalent to gaining an advantage. When the time comes, it’s not about getting whatever you want, everything is planning for the future.
Soviet scientists and engineers are all in their prime, and they are at the forefront of the world in many research fields. Getting these people is equivalent to getting a huge treasure house, it depends on how you dig it.
Frank Horton said with a smile: "The main reason is that Heiyun Group has sufficient technical reserves. I dare not take credit. If Germany had been able to let this aircraft participate in the war, it would be hard to say what the world's pattern and direction would be."
Bao Zixuan didn't say anything when he heard this. The old man must have fallen into memories. However, the broad-mindedness of German scientists is still worthy of recognition, including of course the uncle and father of the old man in front of him.
After recalling for a while, Frank Horton continued: "Mr. Bao, the preliminary test has been completed. Let's see when the test flight can be carried out. After all, it is not an option to keep the aircraft on the ground all the time. We have to collect data through flight."
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "This is the purpose of my coming here. I have asked security to block off some areas. The test flight can be carried out tomorrow. I hope everyone is ready."
This is the advantage of having a large site. You can do any work there with confidence and boldness. Of course, only Bao Zixuan had this confidence, and it would be nothing even if he was discovered. There is no airtight wall in the world, people always have to know, it's just a matter of sooner or later.
