Chapter 282: People and funds can solve the problem, lets get started!
The mystery was finally solved. It turned out that the An-71 early warning aircraft could ski-jump and take off, but it could not fit into the hangar. The redesigned Yak-44 was for use by nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and subsequent aircraft carriers.
Qin Tao stood in the workshop. In front of him, the Yak-44 early warning aircraft stood in front of him.
After the wooden prototype, of course, it is necessary to make a metal prototype, and several of them must be made, some of which will be used for static tests and some for flight tests.
Now, Qin Tao said that he wants a prototype aircraft and buys it back to the equipment transportation company. Of course, it is impossible. After all, it is impossible for a model that has not completed test flights to fly commercially.
However, since Qin Tao wants to buy it and the Jacques Design Bureau has no use, of course it has to be sold. It is better than being missed by a company like Lockheed!
"Right now, this plane can't fly," Alexander said.
"It doesn't matter, we can take it back with the Mi-26 helicopter."
"By the way, you should have some useless waste paper here, right? Pack it up and take it away together. You can use it as much as you want."
Qin Tao's eyes were still staring at the prototype.
The fuselage is intact, and the appearance is exactly the same as the e-2. Even the radome on the back of the fuselage is installed, and the engines on both sides are also installed in place. However, this is just a shell.
Although the Yakovlev Design Bureau is a research and development unit, they only develop the airframe and supporting radars, which are the responsibility of other relevant units. They do not care about the installation. They have already completed the airframe, and if there is no problem in the test flight, it will fly.
Go to the relevant units and ask them to install and test it.
For Qin Tao, of course, he only needs this shell. He does not like the radar produced by Lao Maozi.
Lao Maozi's electronic technology is so backward that he can't even process a flat-plate slot radar antenna.
Although they are all large plates, the top of the American early warning aircraft has a disc-shaped flat-plate slot radar antenna on its back. Lao Maozi's early warning aircraft also uses a mechanically scanned slot array antenna with a horizontal slot waveguide. It is at the same level as the top-plate radar.
These antennas all need to be rotated.
What about the motherland's early warning aircraft? It directly connects to the phased array radar. Although it is also carrying a big plate, it does not need to rotate at all!
By the time the Navy has an aircraft carrier, phased array radar technology has matured, so there is no need for any electronic equipment inside, as long as the body is enough.
After it is brought back, it may remain vacant for a few years. After it arrives, and the technical strength is reached, it can be converted into an aircraft carrier-based early warning aircraft. Even if it cannot be used directly, it can also provide samples for the development of its own early warning aircraft.
For the Yakovlev Design Bureau, since the project has been abandoned and is just an airframe, it is normal to sell it.
He hesitated and said, "How about five million?"
Qin Tao was his savior! He couldn't ask for too much, but if it was too little, he would suffer a loss, so he tentatively offered such a price.
"Okay, no problem. However, I have a request. Can you bring me as many engines as you have?" Qin Tao agreed directly, just making a request.
An aircraft needs a qualified engine. Even after the Yak-44 is modified, it only needs to eject and take off, but it still needs to work hard to achieve miracles.
The D-227 coaxial propeller fan engine it carries is extremely powerful, with one engine capable of producing 14,000 horsepower!
Compare it with the American e-2 Hawkeye, and you will know how incredible it is. The Rolls-Royce T56-A-427a turboprop engine used by the Hawkeye has only 5,100 horsepower.
Not as good as others.
This is of course because of its unique design, which uses the D-227 engine with a three-shaft structure. It is the world's first turboprop fan engine (referred to as a propeller fan engine). It is between the traditional turboprop and turbofan jets.
It is a kind of engine, and its propeller is even more eye-catching.
It has two rows of scimitar-shaped multi-blade wide-chord propellers at the front and rear, and the numbers are different, 8 blades in the front row and 6 blades in the rear row. These propellers rotate at different speeds to solve the high-frequency noise and vibration existing in the coaxial structure.
The problem can be described as unique.
However, this kind of engine is produced by Ermao, so it will not be easy to get it in the future, so this time I just packed it up and took it away.
Alexander nodded: "No problem!"
The technology of Yak-141 and Yak-44 has been obtained. For Qin Tao, the Yakovlev Design Bureau seems to have no technology to search for. However, in addition to technology, there are also talents!
After negotiating the deal and leaving the design bureau, Qin Tao made a phone call, got some information, and then went straight to a bar near the design bureau.
It's not even off-duty time yet, so there aren't many people in the bar. Pleshakov is sitting in front of a bar, drinking.
"Damn it, I've known for a long time that the people at Lockheed are not well-intentioned. I once reminded him not to get too close to the Americans. Now, what he's doing is clearly retaliation!"
"Hey, brother, if you are willing to change places, I can buy you ten bottles of vodka." At this moment, a voice sounded from behind.
The drunken Pleshakov turned his head and saw an oriental face. He knew this person.
"You want to buy me a drink?"
"That's right. Let's go over there." Qin Tao pointed to a quiet booth and said.
Pleshakov walked over, sat in the booth, and looked at Qin Tao: "You came to see me specially?"
"Yes, I heard that you were fired and I was very worried. Where are you going to go next?"
Pleshakov shook his head: "I don't know."
"I guess some Westerners will come over soon and invite you to join them."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Shit, shit." Pleshakov shook his head: "I will not join them. Look at Mr. Tumansky, look again
Look at Alexander who was so frightened that he wet his pants, huh, those people are all devils."
"So, do you want to go to the East?"
"East?"
"Yes, I heard that you are the real chief designer of Yak-141. Alexander is just because of his father. In fact, his ability is not as good as yours at all." Qin Tao said: "If
If you follow me, you will definitely be able to display your talents!"
"You also want to build a vertical take-off and landing fighter jet?"
Qin Tao didn't speak, just smiled.
The technology of the R-79 engine has been bought back. In the past, the wreckage and technology of the Yak-141 were also bought back. What next? What should we do?
Now that they have met, Qin Tao has to take action!
In the future, the navy will not only have aircraft carriers, but also large amphibious assault ships. What kind of aircraft should be used on such assault ships? In the future, the navy will also build some island airports. What kind of aircraft are suitable for these airports?
A fighter jet that takes off and lands vertically should be the most suitable!
However, it is not easy to develop a vertical take-off and landing fighter jet, and it is also very difficult given the current domestic situation.
The Air Force is interested in the Su-27. Some people may even suggest that in order to buy more Su-27s, they should simply stop the No. 10 project. If most people are not far-sighted, I am afraid that there really will be no autonomous aircraft in the country.
There are no fighter jets developed, let alone the J-20.
What about the Navy?
Most of the navy's funds are spent on the Flying Leopard.
Yes, the Navy is so pathetic. It squeezed out funds to improve the Flying Leopard. The Navy does have an urgent need for vertical take-off and landing fighter jets, but the Navy has no money!
Qin Tao set up his own scientific research institution and built this kind of vertical take-off and landing aircraft?
That is of course impossible.
There are still a lot of things to solve, but Qin Tao knows in his heart that this opportunity cannot be missed.
After passing this village, there is no such store. Recently, due to successive accidents, people from Lockheed Company are afraid to go out and do activities. They want to avoid suspicion. After a while, when the limelight passes, they may
Will come here to recruit people.
Qin Tao cannot recruit people from Mikoyan and Sukhoi Design Bureau for the time being, but people from Yakovlev Design Bureau will definitely come out.
Led by Pleshakov, a group of developers of vertical take-off and landing fighter jets were recruited. After returning, they were handed over to my father-in-law, who had to find a way to arrange their work.
Qin Tao made up his mind.
"That's right. You have already purchased the information on the R-79, especially the one with the nozzle. This will give you a foundation for building a vertical take-off and landing fighter." Pleshakov said: "Your electronic technology is pretty good.
The flight control aspect will be better handled. I can’t go to the Western World, so I’ll just do it with you.”
Qin Tao was overjoyed: "I will arrange arrangements for you and your family immediately. By the way, it would be better if you could contact other like-minded people. Anyway, there is no hope for Yakovlev Design Bureau.
Let’s continue this kind of research and development.”
Let’s kidnap the person back first!
By the time Qin Tao met with Mr. Jiang, Mr. Liu and the others again, all the negotiations had been completed and the transaction was going smoothly. They had not paid attention to Qin Tao's disappearance in the past few days.
After all, Qin Tao has his own things to do.
"Mr. Qin, we are going back soon. Will you go back with us?"
Qin Tao nodded: "Well, let's go back together."
His answer surprised everyone: "We thought you were going to stay here and do a lot of things."
"No, let's go back together."
Qin Tao originally planned to stay here and do something else, such as a metallurgical expert.
However, the designer of Lao Maozi's vertical take-off and landing fighter and the purchase of helicopters need to be explained to and coordinated with his father-in-law. Therefore, Qin Tao needs to go back.
In the past few days, while people at Lockheed were afraid to move, Qin Tao tricked a dozen aircraft designers and arranged for them to go in a circle, first to the Far East, and then to China secretly.
As for Qin Tao, he had to return with Mr. Jiang and others, so that he would be in the open and the designers would be in the dark, playing the game of building a plank road in the dark to assassinate Chen Cang.
Capital, Huanglou.
"Okay, you have money. You have two Mi-26s and two Mi-171s. Your Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group will fly in the future!" Wu Shengli looked at Qin Tao, his eyes full of worry.
It's a joke.
Qin Tao can always create miracles for them. Now, after hearing these good things, Wu Shengli became emotional.
"We can't fly if we want." Qin Tao said, "Our country doesn't open its airspace."
In the West, the airspace below 500 meters is open, so people in the West can fly below 500 meters, and their civil aviation industry develops rapidly.
In China, strictly speaking, drones are flown by blackmail. If the air force is serious, they can shoot them down at any time.
Even if it flies one meter high, it is still managed by the Air Force.
"Do you have any idea?"
"Our Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group provides aircraft, and our navy provides personnel and flight licenses. How about we jointly set up a company and affiliate it under the name of a transportation company affiliated to our group?" Qin Tao said: "We usually engage in transportation flights and earn money.
The money received is divided in half. In times of crisis, with an order from the army, our equipment can be requisitioned by the army at any time to perform various emergency tasks, such as emergency rescue and disaster relief, etc."
"In other words, you usually have the final say, but we have the final say at critical times? Well, we can consider this." An old man present said with a smile.
"Well, this always makes me feel a little uneasy. We are an army and soldiers. It's not good to do this!" Wu Shengli hesitated.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! From a policy perspective, there is no problem. A few years ago, with the millions of military cuts, military spending began to be significantly reduced, and the military also began to reform.
The "Interim Provisions on the Financial Management of Military Production and Operations" issued by the General Logistics Department in December 1985 set out the guidelines, principles, financial disciplines, business scope, troop proportions, approval procedures, internal relations, charging methods, and principles for the use of proceeds for the military's production and operations.
and other issues, have made clear and specific provisions, which have become normative documents for military production and operation activities at all levels and the basis for military production and operation audits.
Simply put, the army can do business!
However, many people have doubts about this policy, and Wu Shengli is one of them.
"This is our group's proposal. We hope that the Navy can carefully consider our proposal. If it is rejected by the Navy, then we will go to the Air Force. If the Air Force cannot do it, we will go to the Army." Qin Tao said.
At this time, Wu Shengli was speechless. He could stick to his principles and the bottom line, but what about the others?
Rather than making other military services cheaper, it would be better to...
For some reason, after spending time with Qin Tao for a long time, Wu Shengli discovered that he had begun to be subtly influenced by Qin Tao!
This is not a good sign.
"I will report this much first, and then I will continue to report the second matter."
After Qin Tao introduced more than a dozen experts headed by Pleshakov, deputy chief designer of Yakovlev Design Bureau, the expressions of the people present varied.
"Mr. Qin, that's awesome. These old designers have rich experience. It would be great if they could come to our place to help!"
"Yes, that is, although we are short of funds, we must not treat these guests badly. Even if we eat steamed buns, we must serve them with Western food!"
Everyone was happy with your words and my words, but Wu Shengli remained silent.
"Lao Wu, why don't you express your position? The more talents your son-in-law recruits, the better it will be for us! Why are you like this? What worries do you have?"
"Taozi is not just recruiting talents, he wants us to get into the vertical take-off and landing fighter project!"
A son-in-law is more like a father than a father-in-law. Even if he is a son-in-law and a father-in-law, he still has a certain ability to sense the relationship between him and his half-son.
When Wu Shengli said these words, everyone was stunned.
If it is just to poach a group of talents, of course it would be a happy thing. However, if a new project is to be launched, it is still a hugely expensive project. What is this good thing? This is obviously causing problems!
Even more tricky than the previous problem!
"President Qin, we are currently working on Project No. 10, and our navy is also working on the Flying Leopard fighter-bomber. Can these aviation experts join these teams?" An old man tentatively asked Qin Tao.
"They came here with ideals and hope to turn their ideals into reality." Qin Tao said: "Even if we are not afraid of leaking secrets and let them participate in our key projects, they will probably feel that they have been deceived by me."
"This is obviously your deception." Wu Shengli said angrily: "Do you know how much this will cost? Why didn't you report it in advance?"
"I made a report in advance. The day lilies are already cold. The people from Lockheed are waiting. I started late and they left for the United States. Besides, if I make a report, can you agree to it?"
Qin Tao looked like he was beheading first and then showing off, but he still looked confident and confident, leaving Wu Shengli speechless.
"What now? What to do now?"
"Lao Wu, don't worry."
A leader present spoke: "After Mr. Qin obtained the first batch of wreckage and information, he handed it over to the 611 Institute for preliminary research. Now, since more than a dozen experts from Lao Maozi have also been invited.
Well, let’s just ask them to go to the 611 Institute and take charge of this project.”
"In charge? Old Zhao, you have to know that this project has progressed to the prototype stage! It's time for test flight next! It can burn in 500 million or 1 billion a year. Our navy's scientific research funds,
It’s not enough to put everything in!”
"If it's not enough, just find a way to make money!" Qin Tao glanced at his father-in-law nonchalantly.
Although the problem was posed to his father-in-law, Qin Tao still came up with a solution on the road in order not to be beaten by Zhao Ling.
"Make money, how to make money?" Wu Shengli glanced at Qin Tao: "What can you do to make so much money?"
"Selling weapons." Qin Tao said: "Arms is definitely the most profitable industry in the world."
"Who are we selling to? Do you think we are Western arms dealers?"
Yes, weapons are indeed huge profits, but you have to be hardworking and have advanced weapons. Only in this way can you sell them at a high price.
Factory 132 sells J-7s, but only twenty of them were sold for 100 million. When we buy Su-27s, we can’t even sell three of them.
If the Army sells 59 tanks, it’s even more of a cabbage price.
As for the navy, there are indeed a few warships for foreign trade, but the prices are not expensive. They are almost half sold and half given away. The most profitable one is the aircraft carrier built for the Siamese people, but the money costs them Mingzhou
The group has made money, and it has nothing to do with the navy.
"In the Persian Gulf, there is a country that needs missile boats to control that narrow strait." Qin Tao said: "Now, if our advanced missile boats are sold there, we can definitely make a lot of money."
Persian Gulf, controlling the straits? Of course everyone knows which country it is.
This country does need advanced missile boats, but...
"This country is very rich, so it can charge a high price. Moreover, relying on their relationship with the West, there is no need to worry about our missile boat technology being leaked." Qin Tao said: "If the navy can agree, then
This project, at least, can earn a billion, or even more."
"What are you bragging about? Even if you sell our 022 missile boats, each one costs 50 million US dollars. That is outrageous enough. How can they purchase twenty of our missile boats at once?"
The 022 missile boat is unique in this era, especially its speed and extremely powerful. Therefore, relying on the strength of this missile boat, it can be sold. At most, the navy is reluctant to leak its technology.
However, to say that it can sell for one billion, no, make one billion, is just bragging.
"We sell technology." Qin Tao said: "This country will not trust its purchases for fear of being stuck. They hope they can produce it themselves, especially the above weapons and equipment, such as anti-ship missiles."
If you only sell warships, of course you won't be able to sell them for so much money, but what if you package and sell them with the technology?
This is not just catamaran technology, there are also weapons and equipment on it! Especially, the most advanced anti-ship missiles on it!
Not only do we need to sell weapons, but we also need to sell technology. If we sell this kind of anti-ship missile production line to the other party, won’t the money come out?
Qin Tao can't do this kind of business by himself, it must be coordinated by the navy. He just earns some design fees, consulting fees for construction, and exports water jet propellers and the like. It is enough to earn a few million.
, he is not greedy.
This is not just about making money by selling weapons, but there are deeper considerations, of course, we can't talk about it now.
"With this money, we can fully support this vertical take-off and landing fighter project." Qin Tao knew that it was impossible to make a decision now, he was just making an introduction.
"In order to take care of the development progress of our engine, we cannot be impatient with this fighter project. It is still mainly pre-research." Qin Tao said: "Although Lao Maozi's design has matured, for us, it is still
If it's not enough, we need to drastically change its appearance to make this aircraft have stealth capabilities."
"Stealth capability? Fighters can also have stealth capabilities?"
Currently, the only one in the world that can stealth is the F-117. The "f" at the beginning of "fighter" means it is actually an attack aircraft.
"Yes, yes, fighter jets must also have stealth capabilities, or at least have stealth modifications, just like our 022 missile boats. In this way, the appearance design will take a long time." Qin Tao said his thoughts
: "At the same time, prototypes or aerial test beds must also be built, focusing on vertical take-off and landing technology. A two-pronged approach. The billions of funds raised in this way can be used for three to five years. In the past few years, the country's economy has also improved.
If the navy has more military expenditures, it can continue to carry out the war."
The road has been made, Qin Tao hopes to get an F-35, but he can only make a suggestion.
