Описание: While the underbelly of an Airbus aircraft may appear bulky or unrefined, its design is a highly deliberate engineering choice aimed at maximising efficiency. These structures house essential systems like landing gear and environmental controls, yet they are shaped specifically to ensure smooth airflow and pressure gradients. A primary goal of this configuration is to adhere to the Area Rule, which dictates that avoiding abrupt changes in a plane's total cross-section reduces transonic drag. By using specialised fairings to smooth out the distribution of area along the fuselage, engineers can significantly lower fuel consumption. Ultimately, what looks like an aesthetic compromise is actually a sophisticated method of making the airflow behave predictably at high speeds.
