Chapter 2523: The glory of France

Therefore, the crown prince was generally satisfied with Henkel's investigation work. From the perspective of professionalism, at least the right thing was found and the evaluation was very pertinent. It does not lie in how high the performance is, but the price/performance ratio is really good! The late Bavarian Air Force had two bombers, one K6 and one K8. The latter can take off and land and maintain too few airports, and the former is also very large. It can be used in Europe. It may be troublesome when you arrive in Europe. Repair and maintenance alone are a problem.

"So apart from this Farmand F60 aircraft, are there any other good products. For example, a single-engine aircraft." The Crown Prince asked.

"In addition to the larger companies such as Farmand, Breguet, and Gaudron, there is also a small company that has just been established. They also received orders from the French government. However, with the end of the war, this airline only sold out. Less than 100 new aircraft went bankrupt. We finally got the airline’s aircraft with a lot of effort. After simple maintenance, our test pilots tested this aircraft and the evaluation was very good, especially The propellers of this plane are very good."

"The VII aircraft produced by the famous French company SPAD also uses this type of propeller. This type of aircraft can surpass the Fokker D aircraft's speed when the increase in horsepower is not particularly large. This is largely because of this. Propellers. This aircraft manufacturer, known as SEA, initially produced propellers, and then just switched to aircraft.” Henkel said.

Although there are wind tunnels this year, it is obviously impossible to say how high a country’s aerodynamic attainments are. Therefore, if an aircraft wants to perform well, it must be powered by the engine on the one hand and the propeller on the other. It's 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 engines. You must be equipped with a large four-blade variable-pitch propeller to play the role of engine power. It even appeared later. P47 pilots commented that the replacement of the new propeller was equivalent to the rumors of 1,000 horsepower. Although exaggerated, the effect of the propeller on the aircraft at that time can be seen!

"Well, 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 one crew, an empty weight of 950KG, a maximum take-off weight of more than 1600 kg, and a French Hatch case 13.2MM large-caliber machine gun. And 2 Hatch case 8MM machine guns, it can be described as fierce firepower. It uses a 350 horsepower liquid-cooled engine. The top speed exceeds 225 kilometers. Of course, the best is the ceiling of this aircraft, which is enough It's 7000 meters! IMHO, this is the only aircraft in the entire French Air Force that can rival the J6 fighter jet. It represents the highest achievement in the French single-engine fighter field!"

Henkel did not spare his praise! After all, the J6 was developed by a company with a strong national background, such as the Bavarian Aircraft Factory, while this SEAVI aircraft was developed by a small French private company that has only been established for two years. Although the performance is still somewhat worse, But from a technical level, it is already very difficult, and the person who designed this aircraft is definitely called a genius!

(Note: This aircraft has existed in history, and its performance is very good. This article has made a certain degree of modification. Historically, the SEAVI aircraft was a two-seater aircraft with an empty weight of 1060KG and a maximum take-off weight of 1620KG. The length is 8.5 meters and the wings The exhibition 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 indeed very sad, and the first order of 1000 aircrafts is started. When the first mass-produced aircraft is delivered It happened to be the day of the armistice.... As a result, the French Air Force only accepted 115 aircraft, and then the SEA company went bankrupt...)

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

"Are you a European aviation genius? You have a high opinion of this designer. With all due respect, European aviation geniuses can be equated with world aviation geniuses." Henkel jokingly said, of course, this It's just to enliven the atmosphere.

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

"Don't think about things so simple. This time, other French manufacturers can not participate in our bidding, but this SEA company and its chief designer must come to Munich! I want to meet in person, and you and your people must Invite them in the gentlest way. As long as the result is the result, I don't care about the others. You can pay in advance if you need any resources, do you 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 grateful that he didn't play tricks in this matter, otherwise, if he concealed some things that the crown prince was interested in, I am afraid that his job as an aviation consultant of the Kingdom of Bavaria would be done!

"No problem~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I am going to leave for France this afternoon." Henkel said.

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

"All for Germany, all for Bavaria." Henkel bowed and saluted. Then, after briefly confessing a few things, Henkel left. However, after Henkel left, Ruprecht stood up excitedly. At this moment, he finally determined that he had captured the most critical and important role in the future French aviation industry! This person who is still only unknown, even humble, is the key figure in history and the future for the French aviation industry to take off! He used to compete with the United States and the Soviet Union in the fighter field! It's not an exaggeration to say that such an aviation giant is a national treasure!

"I look forward to meeting you, Marcel Brocher." The crown prince said with a smile.
