Chapter 472: The choice of higher education institutions
Well, Mr. Shi, please go." Qin Tao nodded: "I'm tired, drink some water and have a rest. By the way, I'll have dinner at your place. Don't be too greasy. It's better to be the specialty of your place.
Let me try the food."
Mr. Shi nodded: "I must treat Mr. Qin well."
Qin Tao watched Mr. Shi leave with a smile, and then looked at the people around him: "Is your factory director's surname Tao?"
"Yes, because the factory director is busy with Jiaoba's production, he is overworked and has no time to take care of his body. His gallstones have been lingering for two years. Now Jiaoba has been finalized and there is no major problem in the factory. Therefore, Director Tao
I was hospitalized. I had surgery just the day before yesterday and I have been resting for the past two days. I don’t know why, but Director Tao suddenly came."
Don't know why?
Qin Tao had already guessed what was going on.
In the office, Tao Fei, the director of Factory 320, was sitting in a wheelchair. He was pushed over. At this time, his face was pale and he looked sick.
"Old Tao, what are you doing here? Say hello to me if you need anything, and I'll go directly to the hospital to find you." Mr. Shi said, "The body is the capital of the revolution. What if you exhaust your body?"
"If it's anything else, I'll ask you to come over, but not today. You're entertaining Mr. Qin, so you can't leave Mr. Qin and go to my place. I'm here just to discuss one thing with you. We're done.
, I’m leaving.”
"You can't wait until Mr. Qin leaves to talk about something." Mr. Shi was worried about Tao Fei's health and was very dissatisfied: "Okay, tell me quickly, and then go back after you finish talking."
"President Qin came here to ask us to develop a carrier-based training aircraft, right?" Tao Fei said.
How did you know? Mr. Shi was a little surprised, but he realized it later. Tao Fei has always been concerned about things in the factory. Because he just had an operation, he couldn't come here to receive Qin Tao, but he would definitely let people report the news to him at all times.
of.
Tao Fei must have come over after receiving this news, just for this matter!
"Yes, we must develop this kind of carrier-based training aircraft in order for the navy to go to the ocean." Shi Lao said: "We have already discussed it with Mr. Qin. Even if the navy does not invest money, we will still do it! If it is really
If you are short of money, Mingzhou Group will also provide funds."
"Yes, it is worth the risk for us to go to the ocean for the navy, but do you still remember the development route we set before?" Tao Fei said: "Our K-8 has been successful, but it is only a Chinese training aircraft.
Next, we have to develop an advanced trainer aircraft! Even if the Mingzhou Group pays, can we afford our time and energy? What should we do if our advanced trainer project is delayed because of this project and is surpassed by our peers? 011
Over at the base, they are rolling up their sleeves and getting ready for a big fight!"
In China, there are two manufacturers of training aircraft. One is the 320 Factory, which has been reborn from nirvana thanks to the K-8 project. At the same time, there is another group, the 011 Base located deep in the mountains.
In that special era, the country began to engage in third-line construction, and the 011 Base was one of the important projects. It was a lively scene at the time, and many people went there, and then never came out again.
Not long after the base was established, the country opened its doors. Base 011, located deep in the mountains, had inherent disadvantages and was in a difficult situation.
Therefore, when the J-7 began to enter service one after another and needed supporting training aircraft, the 011 base kept applying, and finally the production of the J-7 was handed over. In fact, the 132 Factory in the Land of Abundance could more easily produce these
A kind of training aircraft was produced. Seeing that their former partners were in trouble, and at the same time Factory 132 made a lot of money from military trade, so they had to give up the profits to their brothers.
After that, the J-7 became the flagship project of the 011 base. While selling the J-7 at Factory 132, it would also sell a few J-7s to customers. This is how they lived their lives.
Of course, they also know that Base 011 cannot just rely on the ordinary JJ7, but must continue to develop and improve.
The Air Force has begun to equip the Su-27, and the test flight of the J-10 went very smoothly, which means that the Air Force needs more advanced training aircraft!
Since the JJ-7 originally had a good foundation, Base 011 made changes based on the J-7. It wanted to use this trainer aircraft as a trainer aircraft for the Air Force's Su-27 and J-10 in their new models.
After completing the basic modification of the training aircraft, they will fly the two-seat version of these third-generation aircraft.
It is conceivable that this kind of change is definitely faster than developing a new aircraft!
The 011 base already had this idea two years ago. The 320 factory was working on Jiaoba at the time and did not have the energy. Now that Jiaoba has been released, they plan to make a big splash and build an advanced higher education machine.
The advantage of using the JJ-7 to modify is that it is cheap, but the disadvantage is that its performance cannot be compared with the third-generation aircraft. What the 320 Factory wants to build will be a high-end trainer aircraft with the world's advanced level!
The superiors will not support it, or they will conduct independent research and development and take the path of the international market. They need to raise funds, and they need to use all their technical strength.
At this time, they are going to buy some carrier-based training aircraft for the navy. There are not many of them, so the time will be delayed!
Their project will not start until later. The 011 base has already made its first flight. By then, the navy and air force will definitely purchase a large number of new J-7s, and their 320 factory will have no meat to eat!
Tao Fei was very worried about this, so after hearing about it, he asked to come over regardless of whether he was still in the hospital.
He had to talk to Mr. Shi about this matter before Mr. Qin left. He couldn't neglect Mr. Qin, so Tao Fei had no choice but to come over in person.
After hearing Tao Fei's words, Mr. Shi nodded: "Yes, I know your concerns. In fact, when Mr. Qin mentioned this project just now, I also had concerns. In the market of advanced trainer aircraft, those who have achieved results will eat first.
, it was done in the end, I guess I can’t even drink the soup.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Yes." Tao Fei said: "Our entire factory, with thousands of people, plus supporting factories, tens of thousands of people, are all looking at us
Well, we can't get too hot-headed and be deceived by Mr. Qin!"
Ah sneeze!
Qin Tao, who was blowing tea and drinking water, suddenly sneezed and rubbed his nose. What happened?
Who is speaking ill of himself?
"Mr. Qin, are you hungry? How about we go to the canteen first?" said the receptionist from Factory 320 on the side.
Qin Tao nodded: "Okay. What are the characteristics of your place?"
"Stir-fried bacon with Artemisia arborescens, Poyang Lake lion head, white sugar cake..."
Hearing so many delicacies, Qin Tao was very interested: "Okay, let's go right now! Let's eat while waiting for Mr. Shi."
Mr. Qin was famous and everyone was looking forward to it. Mr. Shi actually left the show midway, and everyone else felt a little embarrassed. Therefore, Mr. Qin must finish the meal.
However, when Qin Tao and others had just sat down at the dining table in the cafeteria, Mr. Shi came over.
"Mr. Qin, I'm sorry, I was delayed a little by some minor matters." Mr. Shi said with a smile, "Come, let's have a few drinks, I'll do it first as a token of respect."
"A trivial matter?" Qin Tao said with a smile: "Old Shi, you put me, an honored guest, aside for a trivial matter. Isn't that justifiable? You can't punish yourself with three cups of wine."
The faces of everyone present changed. Mr. Qin used to be very easy-going, but now he has become a bit difficult to serve. He is still making things difficult for Mr. Shi?
Mr. Shi's face also became ugly. He slapped people without slapping them in the face. Mr. Qin said this to his face, which was not in line with his behavior.
For a moment, Mr. Shi couldn't think of how to answer.
"So, if you neglect me as a distinguished guest, there must be something important, so don't hide it and talk about it."
When Qin Tao said this, Mr. Shi realized that Qin always told himself not to hold anything back and to speak out the difficult problems!
"Mr. Qin, I won't hide it from you." Shi Lao said: "Our 320 factory originally planned to develop a higher education aircraft after the completion of the Jiaoba project to compete with the 011 base for the military's higher education aircraft project.
, Now, if we want to engage in the naval project, I am afraid that the research and development time will be delayed, and by then, we may be defeated by our competitors."
Qin Tao nodded: "Well,
For you, this is a matter of life and death, you can never agree to me easily, right?"
There was a troubled expression on Mr. Shi's face: "Yes, Mr. Qin, from an emotional point of view, we are willing to build carrier-based training aircraft for the navy, even if we want to sell iron at the expense of others, and we also have the strong backing of the Mingzhou Group, but we
The technical strength of the factory is not very strong. If the higher education machine project is delayed because of this, it will not be worth the loss. The fate of tens of thousands of people in the factory is in our hands!"
"You are very good." Qin Tao said: "I admire you for carving a way out of the market competition. Your high-education aircraft project is also very far-sighted. I am optimistic about you. However, even if there is no Navy carrier-based instructor
Machine project, can you develop this kind of machine for higher education?”
There was a wry smile on Mr. Shi's face: "The high-education aircraft we plan is an advanced trainer aircraft with supersonic flight capabilities, third-generation aircraft flight characteristics, three-axis four-redundancy digital telex, and even certain ground attack capabilities.
.It is indeed very difficult for us. That’s why we have to start earlier!”
The K-8 is just a subsonic training aircraft. It is not very difficult. The high-education aircraft is different. It must be able to simulate the flight characteristics of third-generation aircraft so that pilots can fly Su-27 and J-Flyers directly after training on this aircraft.
10. It is very difficult to develop a third-generation aircraft like this.
"Since it is very difficult to develop it ourselves, why don't we find a model in the world?" Qin Tao said: "Have you heard of the Yak-130?"
Advanced higher education machines are needed by all countries, and Lao Maozi is no exception.
In the 1980s, with the Su-27 and MiG-29 entering service, Lao Maozi suddenly discovered that his original L-39C trainer aircraft could no longer meet the training needs of third-generation fighters. For example, the high-angle-of-attack flight capability is now
There are things that trainer aircraft don’t have.
It would be too expensive to directly use the same two-seat aircraft for training. They urgently need to develop an advanced trainer aircraft that allows students to experience the flight control and high-angle-of-attack flight maneuvers of third-generation aircraft, and at the same time has sufficient power to adapt to "barbaric" operations.
At that time, Lao Maozi was full of talents and there were many aircraft design bureaus. Sukhoi, MIA, MiG, and Yakovlev Design Bureau all participated in the bidding for the new generation of higher education aircraft. However, in the end, Yakovlev Design Bureau won
Yes, they have put some thought into it. After all, it doesn't matter to other design bureaus, but the Yakovlev Design Bureau is crucial.
In order to simulate the high-angle-of-attack flight maneuverability of the third-generation aircraft as much as possible, they adopted the Meteor's side-strip wing structure and added a large-area side strip to the leading edge of the oblique triangle main wing to ensure that the angle of attack reached 35 degrees.
The aircraft can still be effectively controlled. The air inlet is installed just under the side wing, which can be considered as a perfect fit. After adopting advanced fly-by-wire flight control, the performance of the entire aircraft is quite advanced.
However, just when the Yakovlev Design Bureau was about to start a big fight, the Red Empire was gone!
The airframe has been almost designed, but this advanced training aircraft still lacks power and avionics!
Needless to say, avionics, Lao Maozi has always lagged behind in this aspect. The Su-27 still uses analog telex. It is difficult for the Yak-130 to use digital telex. In terms of engines, it happens to be a period of slack.
Originally they planned to use the Progressive Design Bureau's AL-25TL turbofan engine as power, but this engine is an old engine from the 1970s and has backward technology, so the original plan was to use the relatively new DV-2 turbofan engine. This DV-
2 is a cooperation project between the Red Empire and the Czech Republic. After the collapse of the Red Empire, this engine will of course cease to exist.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I've heard that this training aircraft is said to be cooperating with the Noodle Country." Shi Lao said.
The Red Empire collapsed, and everyone still had to live their lives. The Yakovlev Design Bureau saw that the Yak 130 had completed the design, but had no funds to continue research and development. It was very distressed. At this time, the horses of the Noodle Country
Air China came to find me.
Developed countries have the same demand. Maji Airways is a leading manufacturer in the West that specializes in the research and development of advanced training aircraft. Seeing the international need for a new generation of high-education aircraft, it has no design ideas. Therefore, the two parties hit it off and Yakovlev Design Bureau
Provide aerodynamic and structural design, provided by Magee
Since the traditional users of power and avionics equipment are different, there is no need to worry about market issues, so the cooperation began.
"Yes, they are cooperating, but their cooperation will not be sincere. There will always be one party who will play tricks." Qin Tao said: "Moreover, they cooperate with theirs, we cooperate with ours, and Yakovle and I
We have a good relationship with Husband’s design bureau. If you need it, we can spend money to package the Yak-130’s aerodynamic data back.”
Since the demand for higher education aircraft began ten years ago, various trainer aircraft manufacturers are now only targeting this market, but no mature trainer aircraft has been released, and all countries are still researching.
Among them, the research of Yakovlev Design Bureau is the most systematic and complete. The Yak-130 they developed can be said to lead the entire era.
The cooperation between the Noodle Country's Markey Company and the Yakovlev Design Bureau was just for this purpose: to obtain technology. After the two parties parted ways, Markey Company obtained a complete set of design information for the Yak-130 and created the M346 Advanced Trainer
The aircraft is exactly the same as the Yak-130.
If the noodle country can do it, of course we can do it too.
The L-15 Falcon advanced trainer aircraft from the 320 Factory is very similar in appearance to the Yak-130. Moreover, the development project is progressing very quickly: factory pre-research in 2001, national approval in 2003, and final assembly of 01 sorties completed in 2005.
, the first flight in 2006 was simply a miracle, and by 2007, the certification test flight was completed!
Of course, this requires the assistance of external information. Now, Qin Tao has proposed that he can help them obtain the aerodynamic information of the Yak-130, which means that it can save them at least five years!
Mr. Shi was full of emotions: "Mr. Qin, I am very confused. I had already agreed to your request, but after talking with Director Tao, I began to waver again. After all, we can't just rely on passion.
, we also need to take care of all employees in the factory, we can't make a wrong step. I don't even know what to say to you. Unexpectedly, you actually saw through my contradiction at a glance and found a solution for us.
"
Although what Qin Tao said just now was a bit sharp and disrespectful, Mr. Shi's heart was warm now. He already knew that everything Mr. Qin did was for his own consideration! Moreover, Qin
In short, this is like giving him a big gift package, a bigger gift package than building a carrier-based training aircraft for the navy!
"Don't be too happy." Qin Tao said with a smile on his face: "I can help you get information about the Yak 130. However, even if it is an advanced training aircraft, it is still subsonic. We can get it
After obtaining the aerodynamic data, it can only be used as a reference, and the design must be improved. For example, the size of its fuselage should be enlarged and the rear fuselage should be redesigned so that it can be equipped with a turbofan engine with afterburning."
Shi Lao nodded: "Yes, we are going to redesign it. We must not accept everything as ordered! If it can be equipped with an engine with afterburner, it can fly at supersonic speeds, so that it can compete with the products of our brother units!
"
The JJ-7 of the 011 base can originally fly to Mach 2. The advanced trainer aircraft of the 320 factory must also have the ability to fly at supersonic speeds, so that it can also simulate the supersonic combat capabilities of advanced fighter jets. This is very important!
"If possible, I will try my best to recruit Yak-130 designers." Qin Tao said, "Now that you can make money from foreign trade, it's time to hire some foreign experts, so that your technical strength will be stronger.
"
Mr. Shi nodded: "Yes, we have made a lot of money through foreign trade. Mr. Qin, as long as you hire him, we can afford any high salary you offer!"
The original problem has been solved, and they can build carrier-based training aircraft for the navy. As for the wasted time and energy, Qin Tao can make up for it by getting information on the Yak-130!
Mr. Shi put down the burden in his heart and was very happy: "Come, Mr. Qin, let me toast you. They all said that as long as you are here, there is nothing that cannot be solved. Now, having witnessed your grace with my own eyes, I am very grateful to you."
You are even more impressed!"
"Old Shi, I respect you. In the research and development of training aircraft, your 320 factory is worthy of admiration!"
Both sides drank
All of them were very happy.
"Mr. Qin, if we develop this kind of advanced training aircraft, should we take into account the navy's need to board ships during development?" Shi Lao continued to ask.
Qin Tao shook his head: "No, no, you don't have to think about it so much. Let's meet Lu Ji's needs first."
The L-15 Falcon high-education aircraft is quite advanced. Domestic J-20 pilots all fly the J-20 after completing training on the L-15 high-education aircraft. However, this high-education aircraft has not been recognized by the Navy. The Navy is looking for
It is still the Shanying, which is the training aircraft of the seventh major modification of the JJJ to serve as the navy's carrier-based training aircraft.
Instead of choosing the dual-engine Falcon, I chose the single-engine turbojet Mountain Eagle. However, something seemed wrong.
In addition to the fact that the Falcon is a new model, there are other considerations, the most important of which may be: changing the Falcon to a ship-based aircraft is a considerable change!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It took the Americans more than ten years to modify the T-45, and if we start from scratch to modify the Falcon, it should be more difficult and take longer
.
Therefore, Qin Tao will not delay Factory 320.
The U.S. Navy directly uses T-45 trainer aircraft, and the reason is very simple. For the Navy's carrier-based trainer aircraft, the most important mission is to practice squatting and landing on the deck!
It doesn't matter whether it has supersonic flight capabilities or not. It doesn't matter whether it can simulate the characteristics of third-generation aircraft. The most important thing is that it can squat on the deck!
The most dangerous thing for a Navy carrier-based aircraft is to land on a small deck and hook the blocking rope. This is why the Navy looks down on the Air Force. Compared with the smooth take-off and landing of Air Force fighter planes, the Navy is a place that pays attention to technology.
Therefore, it is enough for the domestic navy carrier-based training aircraft to be modified with the Jiaoba, which is used to train pilots to land on the deck. Using the Jiaoba to squat on the deck hundreds of times is much cheaper than using the J-15.
After practicing hundreds of times and perfecting your skills, it won't be too late to join the J-15.
"By the way, regarding the issue of competition, you are very competitive, which is good. However, I think that your two training aircraft research and development and production units each have their own advantages. One relies on cost advantages, and the other relies on performance.
Advantages, so you will definitely have a bright future in the future, and in the end, maybe both of your training aircraft will be recognized by the military."
The JJ-7 modification program is low-cost and can fly to Mach 2. The L-15 simulates the high angle of attack capability of a third-generation aircraft, which the J-7 will never have. The L-15 is used to train pilots and train
The efficiency is quite high. It is said that after a pilot has flown a junior trainer aircraft, he can fly this aircraft for more than ten hours before he can fly on a third-generation aircraft.
Therefore, although it was a competition, in the end, both trainer aircraft entered the military equipment sequence, and everyone was happy.
"Yes, it would be best if they could all be recognized by the military." Shi Lao said, "For their base 011, this is a last-ditch battle."
Base 011 only has one JJ-7 project. If this project is abandoned by the army, the future of the entire base will be bleak.
Of course, Factory 320 will not sympathize with Base 011 because of this. This is the cruelty of market competition.
If it can be a win-win situation, everyone will be happy.
