Abstract

Naval Aviation Technology Factory is a naval facility that is responsible for research on aircraft. Established in Yokosuka in Showa 14 year old, it has many excellent technicians and technicians, and in the flight accident of the zero battle, I made a precise scale model and clarified the cause. After the war, military-related technicians' conversion of civilians became a social problem, but the railway engineering laboratory accepted many engineers. At that time, Nippon Steel had been suffering from a derailment accident caused by the serpentine behavior of the train, but this cause was investigated by combining this serpentine action and the flutter accident of the zero battle, and it became one of the main element technologies of the Shinkansen. Following the history of the naval aviation technology factory being established in the Navy's technical development organization, introduce the outline including its light and dark and the technologies leading to it.
