Moreover, this main battle tank is still under development, and it will take several years before it is equipped with equipment. If there is a 1,200-kilowatt gas turbine, then a 60-ton main battle tank can be designed and developed!

In this way, whether it is protection, firepower or mobility, it will surpass all the main battle tanks in the world, because this power is the strongest, and there will be no stronger tank power at present.

When Song Wencong saw the two of them chatting so enthusiastically, he couldn't help but said: "Oh, you are just discussing this and you don't bring me with you. I am thinking about the small push and vortex produced by this five kilogram flow core machine."

Propeller engines can actually be used to power large drones, and our 611 Institute can also develop one!"

Hearing Mr. Song's witty words, Li Shuguang was also happy: "Mr. Song, you are really thinking ahead. Large unmanned aerial vehicles are one of the future development directions. Indeed, our 300kg turbofan engine is also

Well, or a 300-kilowatt turboprop engine can power large drones. Our country should also vigorously develop drones!"

Speaking of drones, Li Shuguang remembered an advanced large-scale drone developed by Chengdu Aircraft in his previous life, the Xianglong high-altitude long-endurance unmanned reconnaissance drone. It was a drone that could rival the Global Hawk.

It adopts a unique joint-wing aerodynamic layout, which is very powerful. Unfortunately, it does not have a suitable turbofan engine, so a turbojet engine is installed. The result is that the fuel consumption is relatively high and the range is far less than that of the global wing.

If Xianglong is replaced with an advanced low-thrust turbofan engine, its performance will definitely be comparable to that of the Global Hawk.

Because the turbojet seven engine used by Xianglong is used by the J-7 fighter jet, it is not only heavy, but also has extremely high fuel consumption. Its service life is also very short, only a few hundred hours, and it will be basically scrapped after dozens of flights.

Now there is no need to build such a large strategic drone, but there is no problem in building a drone weighing two or three tons. Then using a turbofan engine with a thrust of 300 to 500 kilograms is very suitable.

Of course, you can also install a 500-kilowatt turboprop engine, and then you can build a product similar to the MQ9 Reaper drone developed by the US military in the 1990s.

The Death UAV uses a turboprop engine with a power of 700 kilowatts, can carry 250 kilograms of weapons, and has six weapon racks.

President Song said happily: "Great, Comrade Li Shuguang, you have to give us guidance when the time comes, otherwise we won't be able to build drones. We have no experience with this thing and have no reference!"

Li Shuguang thought that this would be difficult to handle. He didn't have any large-scale drone technology. It seemed that he could only wait for the lottery in the future. Maybe he could win.

The new task released by the system this time is to design a medium-thrust turbofan engine solution for the 624 Institute. Now that I have done it, I guess the reward will come soon. This time it is two thousand experience points, which is still very good.

of.

The three of them chatted very happily. The day passed quickly. Next, they had to look at the 624th Institute. After all, what Li Shuguang had come up with was just a design plan, and the 624th Institute still had to make a plan.

Make a detailed report, and then apply to your superiors to establish a project to develop a mid-range core machine. Of course, there are also several other series of core machines, which must be gradually promoted. However, the most urgent one at the moment is definitely the mid-range turbofan.

In the evening, Li Shuguang and Mr. Song stayed at the Chengfei Guest House. Tomorrow they will go to the 611 Office to discuss the improvements of the J-7 III and the new J-7 III project with Mr. Song and others.

As soon as Li Shuguang lay down, the system sent out a message.

Because the host successfully completes the system task, the host will be rewarded with two thousand experience points and a lottery opportunity.

Li Shuguang was secretly happy and looked forward to getting a good technique this time.

The turntable could not be seen clearly, and Li Shuguang shouted stop after five seconds.

The final result is not the UAV design and manufacturing technology that Li Shuguang expected, but the gas turbine design and manufacturing technology.

But this is not bad, because gas turbines are actually urgently needed by the national defense industry. Whether they are gas turbines for tanks or gas turbines for ships, they are still blank in China.

As for drones, there is no such urgency. After all, China’s current demand for drones, especially large drones, is very small. The most important thing is that it does not have its own satellite navigation system and can only use the GPS system.

This is difficult to handle in the military.

The turbofan engine technology obtained before does not include gas turbine technology. After all, the two are different, but the core engine can be used universally.

Now that he has obtained this technology, Li Shuguang discovered that the technical content of gas turbines is no less than that of turbofan engines. No wonder the countries on this earth that can independently develop advanced gas turbines seem to be more advanced than those that can develop turbofan engines.

Less.

Not to mention gas turbines for tanks, almost only the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, can develop them.

The United States has a GT1500 gas turbine with a maximum power of 1,500 horsepower, while the Soviet Union has developed a 1,000-horsepower gas turbine for the T80 tank.

In terms of performance, the United States is naturally more advanced.

In terms of naval gas turbines, the Soviet Union was on par with the United States, and even produced more models.

As early as the late 1940s, the British developed the first naval gas turbine and successfully installed it on the MGB2009 high-speed gunboat, leading the development of ship gas turbines in the world.

Immediately afterwards, the Soviets started the development of ship gas turbines in the mid-1950s, and took the lead in developing technologies such as full-combustion power devices, gas turbine direct reverse, and transverse cross transmission.

In the 1960s, General Electric of the United States developed the LM2500 gas turbine, which was very advanced. In addition, Pratt & Whitney also developed the FT series gas turbines, and Allison also had gas turbines.

Therefore, the gas turbine is a very important power device for the Chinese Navy. It is already in the 1980s, and China has not yet developed its own gas turbine. The main battleships of the Navy use very backward steam turbines and diesel engines, and some are still

Introduced, controlled by others.

Now Li Shuguang is confident that the spring of domestic ship gas turbines will come soon.

Looking at his information panel, Li Shuguang thought that he could have a sweet dream tonight.
