American Legendary Life

Chapter 639: The skunk

The shape of the large rectangular table is a bit like a billiard case. The table has a sandwich, and the surface is a layer of transparent glass with various measurement accuracy engraved on it.

There is a drawing in the mezzanine, and Andrews can see at a glance that it is a design drawing of a certain fighter plane, and each component on it has an accurate logo.

"Huh...what are you, security..." The man squeezed by Andrews turned his head and saw that he was a strange face and immediately called the security.

"It's okay... This is a major general in the military, a guest I invited." Li Zitao stepped forward with a smile, and made a joke that was not good-looking.

"BOSS." As soon as the other party looked at Li Zitao, he immediately stopped speaking and stopped talking, but the previous discussion also stopped.

"Charlie, what is this plane?" Andrews put all his thoughts on the drawings. If he read correctly, this fighter is obviously not a hellcat.

"This is a new generation of fighter aircraft designed by us, jointly developed by Skunk and Douglas Studios, a double-engine interceptor with a maximum speed of 586 meters/hour,

It is a high-speed, heavy-installed, high-fire fighter. The research and development has not yet been completed, and the prototype has no shadow yet! . "

"It's...beautiful, does it have a name?" Andrews looked at the drawing under the glass obsessively, as if it was not a drawing in front of him.

"Lightning, we call it lightning, as fast as lightning, and full of power." Li Zitao was very satisfied with the performance of the other party.

Let Johnson deliberately arouse the curiosity of the other party, and then bring the other party to visit ‘Rand,’ in order to arouse the interest of Andrews.

"Lightning is a new generation of fighters suitable for high-altitude and high-speed combat. It has faster speeds, stronger armor, and stronger firepower than the enemy. It is the current main research and development project of the skunk... Air Force."

Looking at Li Zitao who was walking beside him, Andrews' eyes flickered; "Charlie, your source is too well informed."

The view on whether the Army Aviation has established a new aviation unit is only a view in the military department. Even if there is no shadow, he has got the news?

"I also heard about it by accident." Li Zitao smiled casually and perfunctoryly. Everyone knows exactly what is going on.

"If the military department is really interested, I hope to see the lightning design report." Andrews did not give him any promise.

Li Zitao is still a little strange to him, and letting the skunk to submit the design of ‘Lightning’ is simply overwhelmed by its excellent performance.

But whether it can be adopted, and how to realize its manufacture, whether the military will purchase in large quantities, these are not up to him alone.

"We will definitely...you can visit as you please." Li Zitao said that he would take the lead to walk forward, there are five other analysis tables.

These analysis stations have R&D drawings of various aircraft, as well as analysis of famous air combat reports in World War I.

From the perspective of both the loser and the winner, they will study how they can change the situation in a disadvantaged situation, and how various types of aviation formations fight,

The winner’s reaction in air combat, the performance advantages of his aircraft, the tactics used, and even the dialogue between pilots during the driving process will be analyzed word by word.

They didn't stop for a whole day. After visiting the three studios, they only ate a hamburger. Andrews smiled with satisfaction.

"Charlie, what I saw in Skunk today opened my eyes. I believe we will have many opportunities for cooperation in the future." Andrews said solemnly.

Whether it is the ‘Lightning,’ which is being developed by the Skunk, the high-altitude high-speed fighter of the D-22 series.

Andrews was surprised by the large aircraft project designated as ‘Hercules,’ the S-4 series, or the ‘NG-15 bombing series’.

Especially the four-engine linkage design of the S-4 and NG-15 series makes Andrews have more ideas for the future air combat.

"This is exactly what I want." Please ask the other party to get on the bus, Li Zitao sat in the co-pilot and turned his head: "Mitchell and General Sims have arrived, I believe you will have a lot of topics to talk about."

Asa Farm, Hitchell and Sims are waiting here. When Li Zitao and Andrews arrived, the two and Whist were roasting around a campfire.

After getting out of the car, Andrews put his army cap on, and walked solemnly. When he walked to the campfire, his legs were all together, and his arms were raised to salute: "General Hitchell, General Sims, Army Air Commander Frank Maxwell Andrews came to report."

"Haha...Don't come to these red tapes, sit down quickly and the grilled fish will be cooked." Hitchell and Sims laughed at each other and greeted Andrews to sit down.

"Thank you, General." Andrews's serious face suddenly turned into a smiling face, so he sat cross-legged next to the two, turning the grilled fish on the iron plate with a clip.

"Sims, won't you tell me about it?" Whist sipped his beer~www.wuxiaspot.com~ wiped his mouth and smiled at Andrews.

"Andrews...he is the most talented pilot I have ever seen." Sims took a can of beer and handed it to Andrews, said with recollection: "The last time I saw him, I was on the battlefield. ?"

"Yes, General, that's my 23rd flight formation. The rank is Lieutenant." Speaking of Andrews, he was also a little bit emotional.

Everything seems to have changed in the blink of an eye, except that their desire to make the Air Force independent has never changed.

It was under the influence of Mitchell and Sims that he always wanted to let the Air Force be free and become an independent organization, not an army or navy accessory.

Having the same idea, the old relationship between the superiors and subordinates, and also participated in the First World War together, which brought them together to have endless topics.

Sitting next to Whist, the two listened quietly to the three veterans talking about war, life, the evolution of the Air Force and its future.

"You are better than me and Sims. The independent command of the Air Force is a signal of complete independence of the Air Force. I hope I can see that day."

Mitchell, who had drunk a lot of wine, was drunk and looked at the sky with his eyes fluttering, as if he saw him flying in the sky again in a plane.

"Yes, old man, we will see that day." Sims said with a laugh, grabbing his beard soaked in beer.

"Let's have a drink for this, and believe that day is in the near future." Li Zitao took the opportunity to smile and toast.

"Cheers." In the laughter, a box of beer was emptied. By the end of the conversation, ‘Beer Can Mountain had been piled up beside them. ’

In the end, even Li Zitao was drunk and returned to the room with the help of the maid.

As for the others, they were all carried back by the servants.
