Commanders of armies and fronts. Experimental researches

to Pass to sections: Commanders of armies and fronts

In the course of building of the fighting ships at factory perfection of their design proceeded. So, summer of 1916 has been created ' by Ilja Muromets ' type E with four motors ' Reno-220 '. Application of more powerful French engines has allowed to raise load-carrying capacity, a ceiling and speed of these airplanes. Растения дома, Уход за растением Гортензия болезни

some experimental researches Were spent also. So, there was oprobovanatandemnaja a scheme of installation of engines on ' Muromtse ' - a fighter, provided some increase in speed at the expense of decrease in front resistance. But excessive loss of draught of back screws has led to sharp decrease in useful loading and a ceiling (no more than 200 and consequently such scheme had no application.

In winter conditions ' Muromtsy ' were put on skis. One sea variant ' by IliMuromtsa ' on floats has been created also. This plane easily came off water and has shown good controllability, but its operations were prevented by approach of Germans to island Ezel on which was based ' Muromets ', and the airplane should be burnt.

Creation of the first-ever heavy multimotor plane ' Ilja Muromets ' and effective operations of a squadron of these ships, naturally, have caused interest razlichnyhaviatsionnyh experts as in Russia, and abroad. German and English aircraft designers tried to create something similar ' Ile Muromtsu ', but their attempts and have not crowned success till the end of war.
