Although it is said that for Tiangong technology, at least small batch production, but its speed is also very fast. Take the official order for the first batch of phoenix-1 aircraft issued by the military, a total of 20 aircraft, excluding the two prototypes for test flight.


    Because these two prototypes will return to Tiangong technology after test flight. Of course, one of them has also returned to Tiangong technology at this time. Now it is silently stopping in the aircraft exhibition hall.


    As for the No. 2 aircraft, it is still on the military side for test flight at this time. However, after the test flight is completed, the aircraft will not be used to be placed in the exhibition hall, but will be maintained in an all-round way after the test flight, and then it will be used as their own aircraft of Tiangong technology.


    The military''s first batch of 20 phoenix-1 aircraft is expected to complete production with the current production capacity of Tiangong technology in less than half a year.


    It can be said that the small batch production of Tiangong technology can even be equivalent to the mass production efficiency of some aircraft manufacturers.


    After all, according to Wang Bin''s plan, the monthly production capacity of Tiangong technology must exceed at least 50.


    At the same time, in the completed No. 2 assembly workshop, two phoenix-1 aircraft that have been assembled are being assembled.


    Therefore, at present, the monthly production capacity of Tiangong technology is less than five, which is indeed a small-scale mass production.


    Although the two aircraft look very similar to the phoenix-1 aircraft, if you look carefully, you will find that the two aircraft are still different from the phoenix-1. The biggest difference is that the fuselage of the two aircraft is longer, the wingspan of the aircraft is smaller, and finally the wing sweep angle of the two aircraft is larger, It''s only about 30 degrees.


    In addition, the two planes have a pair of small canard wings behind the nose.


    It can be said that the alien of these two planes is still different from the original phoenix-1.


    Of course, even these two planes have certain differences.


    The biggest difference lies in the engines of two aircraft. The engine size of one of two aircraft is longer, the engine nozzle is larger, and the nozzle material thickness of the engine is thicker.


    Yes, these two aircraft are the new model phoenix-1 improved aircraft newly developed by Tiangong technology.


    It is named Phoenix M1 and Phoenix kt1 aircraft respectively by Tiangong technology.


    Among them, one phoenix-m1 aircraft is equipped with a pulse detonation engine used in the ordinary atmosphere, while the other is equipped with an air space integrated pulse detonation engine. In addition, this overhead version of phoenix-1 is also equipped with two ion engines to facilitate the aircraft''s navigation in space.


    After all, for example, today''s industrial technology has developed to a fairly high level in terms of plasma engine, and its maximum thrust can reach ten thousand cattle. Therefore, as the power of aerospace aircraft in space, there is naturally no problem.


    In other words, one of the two aircraft is not an ordinary aircraft, but an aerospace aircraft with aerospace flight capability.


    Although one of the two aircraft does not have the ability to fly in space, according to the design, the performance of the aircraft is also very excellent.


    Its maximum flight speed, according to the data, has reached about mach. The maximum flight altitude. Due to the characteristics of pulse detonation engine, the flight altitude of this aircraft is also very high, and it can even fly to an altitude of more than 50000 meters. You know, at this altitude, it has reached the edge of the atmosphere.


    At the same time, because this aircraft also has very strong stealth ability, for example, when the speed of this aircraft is lower than Mach 2, its stealth ability has exceeded the most advanced stealth fighter in the world.


    However, when the speed of the aircraft reaches above Mach 2.2, the temperature of the aircraft body rises due to friction with the air, so the stealth ability will gradually lose. When the speed of the aircraft exceeds Mach 3.3, the stealth ability of the aircraft will also be completely ineffective.


    After all, at such a speed, it is impossible to be invisible due to the light and heat generated by air friction and plasma.


    Therefore, this aircraft is actually a real sixth generation aircraft. Although this aircraft is not a fighter or fighter, it is a true sixth generation aircraft and a sixth generation bomber.


    Yes, this aircraft is not a multi-purpose transport aircraft like the phoenix-1 before, but a bomber that can only carry out bombing missions.


    As for another space version of the Phoenix kt1 engine, this aircraft not only has the same performance as the previous Phoenix M1 when flying in the atmosphere, but also has the ability of space flight, and its carrying capacity is not weak.


    According to the data, the aircraft can not only send up to ten astronauts into low earth orbit below 200 km, but also send up to 1.6 tons of cargo into low earth orbit below 150 km.


    Of course, if it is used only as a cargo plane instead of carrying astronauts, the plane is absolutely capable of sending about 2 tons of cargo into a low earth orbit of about 200 kilometers.


    Of course, compared with the carrying capacity of medium and heavy rockets, which are often more than ten or twenty tons, or even hundreds of tons, the difference is very large at sea, but you know, this is an aerospace plane!


    As long as the maintenance of this aircraft is in place, this aircraft can definitely be used for ten years or more. At the same time, it also has the ability to take off repeatedly many times a day, which is absolutely unmatched by rockets, even reusable rockets.


    Most importantly, in terms of cost, according to data calculation, it is about 80% lower than reusable rockets.


    In other words, the cost of using this space plane is only one or two million per flight. Such a cost is definitely a very low price, and even many ordinary people can take it out.


    Of course, these are only the data calculated by the design, not the real data, and the real data can only be known after the flight test.


    Although the supercomputing of Tiangong technology has an artificial intelligence system, which has stronger technical ability and more accurate data, it can not be used as real data.


    As the status of the two aircraft is getting closer to completion, Wang Bin pays more and more attention to the two aircraft. Especially in these days, as the two aircraft are about to be completed, Wang Bin also stays in the No. 2 assembly workshop every day to assemble the two aircraft together with the workers and masters.


    And as the time for completion and offline is getting closer and closer, both Wang Bin and the masters in the workshop are more and more excited.


    Because, as long as these two aircraft, especially the successful R & D, manufacturing and test flight of aerospace aircraft, it represents that China and Tiangong technology have officially entered the space age, which is absolutely a milestone for the whole human civilization, and even no less than the role of the industrial revolution in human civilization, because it marks the arrival of a new era.
