    Was Sie schon immer mal wissen wollten – oder die letzten Geheimnisse der Luftfahrt Eine lose Folge von Dokumentationen vom Luftfahrtmuseum Hannover-Laatzen Stand Frühjahr 2014 - Seite 1 Diese Dokumentationen werden Interessenten auf Wunsch zur Verfügung gestellt und erscheinen in einer losen Folge von Zeiträumen. Compiled and edited by Johannes Wehrmann 2014 Source of Details Wikipedia and Internet Nakajima Kikka AIC = 6.011.226X.10.11/18 Entwicklungsgeschichte: Nachdem der japanische Militärattaché in Deutschland 1944 die Erprobung der Messerschmitt Me 262 gesehen hatte, wurde Nakajima Hik ōki mit der Entwicklung eines vergleichbaren Flugzeuges als Schnell- bomber beauftragt. Die Spezifikationen enthielten unter anderem die Forderung, dass das Flugzeug weitestgehend von ungelernten Kräften gebaut werden konnte und dass die Tragflächen klappbar sein sollten. Letztere Forderung sollte eine verborgene Unterbringung in Höhlen und Tunneln ermöglichen, da die japanische Marine sich bereits auf die Verteidigung der heimatlichen Inseln vorbereitete. Die Konstrukteure Kazuo Ohno und Kenichi Matsumura von Nakajima gestalteten daraufhin ein Flugzeug, das der Me 262 ähnelte. Ursprünglich sollte die Kikka von einem Tsu-11-Triebwerk angetrieben werden – einem nicht sehr weit entwickelten Triebwerk, das nicht viel mehr als ein Rotor mit einem Nachbrenner war. Nachfolgende Ent- würfe wurden um ein Ne-10-(TR-10)-Zentrifugalfluss-Strahltriebwerk und ein Ne-12 (Ne-10 mit zusätzlichem vierstufigen Axialkompressor) gestaltet. Versuche mit diesem Triebwerk zeigten bald, dass dieses Triebwerk nicht einmal annähernd die Leistung erreichte, um das Flugzeug anzutreiben. Das Projekt wurde daraufhin vorerst eingestellt. Später wurde entschieden, ein neues Axialfluss-Triebwerk auf Basis des deutschen BMW 003 zu bauen. Die Entwicklung gestaltete sich schwierig, da als Grundlage nicht viel mehr als Fotos und eine Schnittzeichnung zur Verfügung standen.

  • Civilian Application of Wartime Military
    SWORDS INTO PLOWSHARES: CIVILIAN APPLICATION OF WARTIME MILITARY TECHNOLOGY IN MODERN JAPAN, 1945-1964 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Takashi Nishiyama, M.A. The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Professor James R. Bartholomew, Adviser Approved by Professor Philip C. Brown _____________________________ Professor John. F. Guilmartin, Jr. Graduate Program in History ABSTRACT This dissertation examines civilian application of military technology in Japan after World War II. As a case study, I focus on the historical metamorphosis of wartime technology ― such as military aircraft deployed for kamikaze suicide missions― into the highly successful Shinkansen high-speed bullet train. In retrospect, the shift in the socio-technological landscape in Japan after 1945 was drastic, spectacular, and unprecedentedly successful. Employing a bottom-up approach, I highlight the decentralized character of Japan’s conversion process from wartime to postwar eras. Specifically, I examine the roles of former military engineers in the public research and development sector at the grass roots-level. The crucial variable in the conversion process, I argue, was the remarkable adaptability and flexibility of these engineers and their knowledge, especially in support of Japan’s technological development. The course of the technological transformation was neither obvious nor preordained. It was largely idiosyncratic and contingent on numerous individual decisions and actions within the engineering community. At least the bullet train and other modern technological artifacts were a product of such ii development; postwar technological artifacts were essentially amalgamations, reproductions, and reconfigurations of pre-1945 technologies with little orchestrated effort from the top.

  • Station Point Grey and Very Special Intelligence: Part 2 the Meaning Of
    Station Point Grey and Very Special Intelligence: Part 2 By Patrick Bruskiewich, ©2012 This public document draws from declassified sources and materials freely available in the public domain as of 1 st November 2012. All this documentation is available through UBC Library. This article is the second in a series of four. The Meaning of Scientific Intelligence During wartime, when it comes to the gathering and decryption of messages, the military needs of the battlefield takes precedence over diplomatic and technical intelligence gathering. And so it has been since at least the time of Julius Caesar. In our modern age, anyone setting off with a “manifest destiny” of becoming a great empire or modern Caesar must however contend with the profound effect science and technology has on modern warfare and States Craft. This fact was made apparent to Great Britain in the Great War (1914-1918), and to the Allies as a whole during the Second World War, when modern science and technology began to profoundly affect the rapidity and conduct of a global war. How this came into being is outlined in books by Dr. Vannevar Bush [1] and by Dr. R.V. Jones [2] By 1945 “Special Intelligence” had made its mark, with contributions from the four corners of the world, not the least being the special intercept work done by the men and women at Station Point Grey, on the campus of the University of British Columbia, in Vancouver, BC, Canada (refer to Station Point Grey and Special Intelligence: Part 1).
