The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 2523: The Glory of France II

Therefore, the crown prince is generally satisfied with Heinkel's investigation work. From the perspective of professionalism, at least he found the right thing, and the evaluation is also very pertinent. It doesn't matter how high-performance this thing is, but the price-performance ratio is really good! The Bavarian Air Force had two types of bombers in the later period, one K6 and one K8. The latter has too few airports that can take off, land and maintain, and the former is also very large. It can be used in Europe. It may be troublesome in Europe, and repair and maintenance alone are a problem.

"So besides this Farmand F60 aircraft, are there any other good products. For example, single-engine aircraft." The crown prince asked.

"In addition to the relatively large companies such as Farmand, Breguet, and Gauderon, there is also a small company that has just been established. They also received orders from the French government, but after the war ended, this airline only sold out. Less than 100 new planes went bankrupt, we managed to get this airline plane after a lot of trouble, after a few minor repairs, our test pilots tested the plane and it was very good, especially It's the plane's propeller that's pretty good."

"The VII aircraft produced by the famous French SPAD company also uses this type of propeller. This aircraft can have a much faster speed than the Fokker D aircraft without a particularly large increase in horsepower. It is largely because of this. Propellers. This aircraft factory, known as SEA Corporation, started out producing propellers and then just switched to producing aircraft," Heinkel said.

Although there are wind tunnels these days, it is obviously impossible to say how advanced the countries are in aerodynamic layout. Therefore, if an aircraft wants to have good performance, on the one hand, the engine must be powerful, and on the other hand, the propeller must be powerful. It is easy to use. In fact, in World War II, the propeller is still an important factor limiting the performance of the aircraft, especially the later high-power engine. You must be equipped with a large four-bladed variable-pitch propeller to play the role of the engine power, and even appeared later. The P47 pilot commented that after replacing the new propeller, it was equivalent to an extra 1,000 horsepower. Although exaggerated, the role of the propeller on the aircraft at that time can be seen!

"Okay, let's talk about this new product of SAE. Since you have spent a lot of effort to get this extremely rare aircraft, you must have done a more detailed test?" Ruprecht said with a smile.

"The positioning and performance of this aircraft is the closest to our J6 fighter. This aircraft has a crew of 1 person, an empty weight of 950KG, a maximum take-off weight of more than 1600 kg, and is equipped with a French Hotchkiss 13.2MM large-caliber machine gun And two Hotchkiss 8MM machine guns, it can be described as fierce firepower. It uses a liquid-cooled engine with an output of 350 horsepower. The maximum speed exceeds 225 kilometers. Of course, the most outstanding thing is the ceiling of this aircraft, which is enough There are 7000 meters! With all due respect, this is the only aircraft in the entire French Air Force that can stand shoulder to shoulder with the J6 fighter. It represents the highest achievement in the field of French single-engine fighters!"

Henkel did not hesitate to praise himself! After all, the J6 was produced by a company with a strong national background like the Bavarian Aircraft Factory.

And this SEA VI aircraft was produced by a small private company in France that has only been established for two years. Although the performance is still a bit worse, it is not easy from a technical level. It can definitely be called a genius!

(Note: There was this aircraft in history, and its performance is also very good. A certain degree of modification has been made in this article. In history, the SEA VI aircraft is a two-seater aircraft with an empty weight of 1060KG and a maximum take-off weight of 1620KG. The length is 8.5 meters. The wingspan is 12 meters. Equipped with 3 machine guns, the engine power is 350 horsepower, the maximum speed is 218 kilometers per hour, and the maximum ceiling is 7400 meters! And this aircraft is really sad, and the first mass-produced aircraft leaves the factory. It happened to be Armistice Day... As a result, the French Air Force only accepted a total of 115, and then the SEA company went bankrupt...)

"Very good, so now, can your people contact this European aviation genius?" Ruprecht was very satisfied with Heinkel's answer.

"European aviation geniuses? You think highly of this designer. With all due respect, now, European aviation geniuses can be equated with world aviation geniuses." Henkel jokingly said, of course, this It's just to liven up the atmosphere.

"Our people have already contacted this designer named Marcel Brochet and his team. Because of the war technology, his team and company are in a very bad situation, and there is a possibility of dissolution. So, I think If we can give some financial support, then I think he will definitely be interested in participating in our bidding." Henkel said.

"Don't take things so simply. This time, other French manufacturers may not participate in our bidding, but this SEA company and its chief designer must come to Munich! I will personally meet you and your people. Invite them here in the gentlest way, I just want the results, I don't care about the rest, you can pay for any resources you need, understand?" Ruprecht said very seriously, with a rare seriousness in his tone.

"Do you already know something about this designer?" Henkel said in his heart, but at this time, he naturally wouldn't say it directly. How do you say something? The king has the most secrets, and the king obviously has other channels to obtain relevant information. He was a little glad that he didn't play tricks in this matter, otherwise, if he concealed some things that the Crown Prince was interested in, I'm afraid his job as an aviation consultant to the Kingdom of Bavaria would be over!

"No problem, I'm going to leave for France this afternoon," Heinkel said.

"Very well, if this thing is done, then after you come back, you will be the chief technical advisor in charge of this bidding." Ruprecht said.

"All for Germany, all for Bavaria." Henkel bowed and saluted. Then, after briefly explaining some things, Henkel left. However, after Henkel left, Ruprecht got up excitedly. At this moment, he was finally sure that he had captured the most critical and important role in the future French aviation industry! This person who is still unknown at present, even a humble person, is a key figure in history and in the future that will make France's aviation industry take off! He used to stand shoulder to shoulder with the US and the Soviet Union in the field of fighter jets! It is no exaggeration to say that such an aviation master is a national treasure!

"I'm looking forward to meeting you, Marcel Brochet." The crown prince said with a smile.
