Recently, some media reported the latest progress of the "Tengyun Project" aerospace aircraft. It is reported that the first combined power modal conversion flight test has been completed. I have to say that the success of this experiment is a breakthrough, and of course, it is also an important milestone for our country.
Some experts say bluntly: China will be at the forefront of the world. After the news of the successful first flight of the domestically-powered combined aircraft came out, many netizens commented: No longer worry about being "stuck" by the United States, we are ahead of the United States again! You know, this is our country's lead again after the super-combustion engine. What is the use of
? Deterrence is comparable to nuclear weapons
In fact, many people do not understand the role of aerospace aircraft. This equipment has a very high military value and can be used as a strategic bomber, a strategic reconnaissance aircraft and a long-range interceptor. Therefore, many countries currently want to develop on this project. According to reports, the aerospace plane has a top speed of 30,000 kilometers per hour and can fly in an orbit around the earth at an altitude of 200 kilometers.
Simply put, the aerospace plane is not only a transport aircraft, but also a reconnaissance aircraft equipped with computers and advanced detection equipment. Of course, this equipment can also be used as a reusable space launch platform. If in the space battlefield, the spacecraft can destroy the enemy's spacecraft, and even cause threats and damage to the enemy's satellites. Some military experts say bluntly: Its deterrence is comparable to nuclear weapons.
China's "Tengyun Project" eclipsed the American X-37B
So, how about the performance of China's aerospace aircraft? From the appearance point of view, the design concept of transportation between the sky and the earth with the combination of mother and child aircraft is relatively new. Among them, the "small plane" being carried is very similar to the X-37B of the United States. The X-37B in the United States was eclipsed.
Now, China finally used the domestically-made power to launch the combined aircraft to successfully fly the aerospace aircraft for the first time. According to reports, combined power is a new type of power, I believe many people don't hear it often. According to expert analysis, the basic principle is to integrate different power modes such as rocket engines, ramjet engines, and aero engines to complement each other. Prior to this, relevant experts from the Aerospace Science and Technology Group told the reporter of Science and Technology Daily: The aircraft that integrates aviation and aerospace power technology will be the goal of space transportation to achieve reusability.
