Mr. Qin, we are here!" That afternoon, Yang Dawei and his people hurried over.
"Yeah." Qin Tao looked at Yang Dawei: "How is it? Have you brought everything?"
"We have been busy for a month, and finally we have completed all these design plans." Yang Dawei said: "Especially the layout of the two-ship island needs major changes. We also spent a lot of effort. Mr. Qin, you
How did you come up with this plan?"
Qin Tao gave the order and they were responsible for carrying out the task. I haven't asked why specifically yet.
For example, how can the plan of twin ship islands have such a weird design? When the time comes, will they show the uniqueness of their Mingzhou Group?
Qin Tao smiled: "Of course this plan has great benefits. Didn't you realize it when you were designing it?"
Originally, designing the aircraft carrier should be the task of the Second Design Office, but now, almost all the technical staff of the Second Design Office are busy at Mingzhou Group to participate in the construction of the 001 aircraft carrier. During the construction process, technical personnel are also required to be present for coordination.
Yes, this can greatly speed up the modification process.
Therefore, the design of the new warship for this international defense exhibition can only be handed over to the first design office. However, they only need to obtain the technical information from the second design office and make slight improvements. Moreover, if they encounter problems, they can still
I could ask the technicians from the second design office who were present at any time, so I didn’t encounter too many difficulties.
However, there are some issues that even the technical staff of the Second Design Department, and even Babbage himself, are a little curious about. For example, the design of the two-ship island requested by Qin Tao is simply unconventional.
Yang Dawei was originally asking Qin Tao, but now that he heard Qin Tao's rhetorical question, he began to think seriously.
If you look at the occupied space, the two islands at the front and rear of this aircraft carrier are just like the islands of our own 001 aircraft carrier, split directly in the middle.
The biggest problem with the 001 ship island is that it is large. The ship island occupies most of the space on the right side, resulting in a small number of carrier-based aircraft docked on the deck. Now, the layout of the two ship islands, although there is an elevator added in the middle,
But this way the front and rear of the ship island are completely empty.
"Is it to increase the space on the deck for parking fighter jets?" Yang Dawei asked.
"This is just one of the small benefits, not the main one." Qin Tao said: "The most important issue is to solve the problem of chimney placement."
Since nuclear-powered aircraft carriers do not require chimneys, their islands can be designed to be very compact. Domestic aircraft carriers follow the boiler route and do not require large chimneys. When the construction of domestic aircraft carriers starts, you will find that the size of the islands is much larger.
has shrunk.
However, if you consider using a gas turbine, it will cause a lot of problems, because the gas turbine needs enough air, a large air inlet, and a large exhaust port. In this way, the ship island must be made thicker.
.
What does this have to do with the ship island? Of course it’s because the intake and exhaust vents have to pass through the ship island!
Hearing what Qin Tao said, Yang Dawei suddenly reacted.
"From the perspective of warship command, it is more appropriate for the island to be located in the front. From the layout of the chimney, it is more appropriate to locate the island to the rear. So, let's just have a layout with two islands. This can get a perfect solution.
!」
Yang Dawei just needed to be reminded. Now that Qin Tao gave such guidance, he understood.
"That's not entirely true. The size of the gas turbine is not large. Our power system is designed directly under the ship island. One or two gas turbines are arranged under each ship island, so that the intake and exhaust pipes of the gas turbines are the shortest.
Qin Tao said: "However, when we introduce it, we need to be more sophisticated. The intake and exhaust problems of the gas turbine are only one aspect. More importantly, it can bring other benefits."
Other benefits?
"For example, during the take-off and landing stages of carrier-based aircraft, air turbulence is very troublesome. When the sea breeze blows through two ship islands, the air turbulence generated will be less than that of one ship island, which is conducive to the take-off and landing operations of carrier-based aircraft.
Safety."
You know this when you live in a building in winter
When you go downstairs, you will feel a strong air current under the building. When you go out, you will find that it is not very serious. This is the so-called building wind. The bigger the building, the stronger the wind.
But why are there two fewer islands than one? You have to do a wind tunnel experiment to find out! How did Mr. Qin know?
Yang Dawei was a little curious, but he didn't bring it up. Since Mr. Qin said it, he must have a reason.
"For another example, our dual-island structure can arrange different electronic equipment at the front and rear. For example, now, a long-range air-to-sea search radar is placed on the front island, and satellite communications and other equipment are placed at the back.
This avoids mutual interference."
Warships need to install different electronic equipment, and the interference between them is very complicated. In order to solve the electromagnetic compatibility problem, many electronic engineers have lost their hair. The layout of the front and rear islands will be easy and there will be less interference.
"For another example, the two ship islands have different missions. The front island is responsible for command and navigation, and the rear island is responsible for the take-off, landing and dispatching of carrier-based aircraft. At the same time, they can also back up each other to improve survivability on the battlefield.
ability."
Yang Dawei's eyes slowly lit up. Mr. Qin was so awesome. He told so many reasons so clearly. Why didn't he think of it?
Sure enough, there is still a long way to go between me and Mr. Qin! I have to learn more from Mr. Qin in the future!
Yang Dawei admired Qin Tao even more.
"Mr. Qin, who are the potential customers of our plan?" Yang Dawei always felt that Mr. Qin was targeting the target.
"Of course it's Ah San." Qin Tao said: "With Ah San's characteristic of looking higher than his head, he likes tall things, so they are likely to like our plan, even if they don't like it, at least
Our plan is also the first of its kind. When Asan starts construction, if it really adopts the layout of two ship islands, it will be plagiarizing our plan, and we are the original one."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Anyway, the Queen-class aircraft carrier will not start construction until 2009. In this era, no one has proposed the plan of dual ship islands. Mingzhou Group is definitely
the first.
Sell it to Asan?
Mr. Qin can really think about it! Yang Dawei was a little shocked. Mr. Qin is so powerful that he actually prepared it for Ah San!
"By the way, I heard that Ah San is negotiating with Damao, requesting that the Super Sun King be towed back." Suddenly thinking of something, Yang Dawei said to Qin Tao.
"Drag it back? It seems that they are not willing to be killed." Qin Tao sighed: "However, dragging it back is also a good plan. In the future, if there is any problem with this aircraft carrier, they will have to solve it themselves.
We can no longer cause trouble for Lao Maozi."
Another problem?
Yang Dawei was a little surprised and didn't know what Mr. Qin's words meant. However, Xu Zhengyang beside him was as clear as a mirror.
What else could go wrong? Of course the deck collapsed!
Not only is the boiler unqualified, but so is the deck. Once Asan repairs the boiler, installs the equipment, and enters sea trials, there may not be any problems. But when it is officially operational in the future, hundreds of carrier-based aircraft will take off and land.
This time, the nightmare will come, right?
Qin Tao did not explain, but continued to sigh: "The modification of this Super Sun King project is really huge. They don't even think about it. How can such a huge project not exceed the cost."
Although Da Mao's constant demands for increased costs made Ah San very angry, it has to be said that the aircraft carrier modification project is really too big: modifying the bulbous bow, dismantling the extension at the front of the island and all weapon systems; modifying the entire flight deck
, a 5.5-degree inclined deck and a 52-meter-long 14.3-degree ski jump module were installed. A total of 234 new hull structure modules were added; 1,750 of the 2,500 cabins in the entire ship were rebuilt.
The ship island has also undergone a lot of improvements. In addition to retaining the roof radar, other radars and communication and navigation equipment are all new.
After such improvements, the full load displacement increased to 45,400 tons, the length increased by 11 meters, and the flight deck width increased to 61 meters. It can carry 16 MiG-29K, 6 Ka-28 and Ka-31 helicopters. It also
Equipped with
LUNA landing assist system for MiG-29K and DAPS landing assist system for Sea Harrier.
The scale of the project is very rare in the history of aircraft carrier modifications around the world. For Qin Tao, he would rather build a new one than renovate it like this, which is too laborious.
Yang Dawei nodded.
"It's a pity that our 052C destroyer is a confidential project and cannot be displayed publicly. Otherwise, that warship should be our current trump card."
Since we have to hold a defense exhibition and display our own equipment, of course we have to display the most advanced ones. Yang Dawei still has fresh memories of the last time he went to Malaysia to participate in a defense exhibition. Unfortunately, his performance was not so eye-catching this time.
.
Qin Tao looked at the design drawing of the dual-island aircraft carrier: "It's not difficult to be eye-catching. Let's bring over the design of our brother unit!"
The design of the brother unit?
"The rotatable flat-panel phased array radar and four small C-band phased array radars have been moved here. This will make our aircraft carrier design taller."
Yang Dawei frowned: "Mr. Qin, is this okay?"
"What's wrong? I'll take care of it if anything happens." Qin Tao said, "The technology of the world's navies has already advanced towards phased arrays. Of course we must be at the forefront of this era."
"Mr. Qin, the first exhibitor has arrived." Xu Zhengyang answered the phone and said excitedly to Qin Tao.
"So fast? Are they too impatient?" Qin Tao was a little curious: "Which manufacturer is it?"
"Modasic Company is personally led by their president."
Motor Sich Company? Qin Tao suddenly became excited: "Okay, the Power Czar is here first. When will he arrive? I will go to the airport to greet them!"
Power Czar? This nickname given by Mr. Qin is really interesting!
The Red Empire collapsed, and the various republics divided a lot of inheritance. The big hair came first, and the second hair came second.
Among the Second World War, Motor Sich Company is the most dazzling and shining star. This company was the company that developed aerospace engines during the Red Empire era.
The most famous among them is, of course, the D-18T engine used for the An-124 and An-225 transport aircraft. This engine is also their star product. There is also the turboshaft engine for the Mi-26 helicopter, which is also produced by Motorsic.
The product.
However, they not only produce large engines, but also produce some small and medium-sized engines, such as the engines used by Falcons, and small engines used by some cruise missiles.
This company also has a deep connection with the East, and in later generations, it has had countless relationships, grievances and grievances.
However, because this company is manufacturing aero engines, although Qin Tao has been to Ermao many times, he has never had any dealings with Motorsic Company. This time the other party came to visit, so of course Qin Tao had to play his role as a landlord.
Friendship.
The next day, Capital International Airport.
"Mr. Qin, you have so many things to do, but you actually came to greet Motorsic Company in person. When they see you, they will be very touched." Beside Qin Tao, Mr. Shi said.
As for what is related to Motor Sich, the most important company currently is the domestic company that develops training aircraft. After Shi Lao and the others developed the K-8, they continue to work hard and plan to develop advanced training aircraft. In terms of engine selection, Motor Sich
Qi Company's engines are the most suitable choice for them.
Therefore, Mr. Shi and the others had already contacted Motorsic Company several times, and of course they wanted to come here to pick them up, but they didn't expect Mr. Qin to come here as well.
"Their company's products are also equipped on our aircraft." Qin Tao said: "This is our supplier, of course we must welcome it."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The plane will take a few minutes to land, and everyone is already chatting.
"Modasic Company is already one of the few outstanding companies in Ermao. The development of their company has a lot to do with their president."
After the collapse of the Red Empire, various companies and factories were having a hard time.
Of course, the same is true for Dasic Company, but soon, all this will not be reversed, because Vyacheslav Boguslaev, the president of Motorsic Company, personally went to various upstream suppliers to stabilize production.
I went to Damao again and stabilized the sales channels, so until now, Motor Siqi Company is still alive and well.
Motorsic's products have been sold to 120 countries around the world, but in fact, Motorsic's most important customer is still Da Mao.
Therefore, as long as Da Mao can stabilize, their company will be able to live well. If not, big problems will arise.
"Yes, the products produced by their company are still very good." Qin Tao said, "Since they are here this time, we have to purchase a batch."
purchase?
"Yes, we need to purchase engines, which requires a lot of money. It would be great if we could introduce technology for production." Shi Lao said.
Qin Tao nodded: "Old Shi, what you said makes sense. We need to introduce technology to produce some engines. When they come down, we can have a talk and give them a big gift."
Mr. Shi was a little surprised: "Mr. Qin, if we introduce technology for production, it will probably cost a lot of money!"
As a company that produces training aircraft, they really can't afford that much money.
"How about we, Mingzhou Group, invest in setting up an engine production plant with you to specialize in the production of training aircraft engines?"
Mr. Shi was overjoyed.
"Mr. Qin, your company is so rich, you can buy the entire Motor Sich Company without any problem," said a staff member next to him.
Buy it? How is it possible to buy it? I don’t want to engage in loss-making business. The Tianjiao Company of later generations is a living example!
Qin Tao smiled and shook his head: "We are shipbuilders."
You must avoid the pitfalls that you should avoid. After you have avoided them, you will suddenly be tricked by others.
At this moment, the roar of engines was heard outside, and a passenger plane landed at the Capital International Airport.
Boguslayev, who is only about 1.75 meters tall, is not considered tall among Westerners. He is in a suit and leather shoes and looks like a young man with a youthful vigor, but his black hair is mixed with a few white hairs.
It shows that he is not young.
"Mr. Bogulasev, welcome to the East." Qin Tao walked up and extended his hand enthusiastically.
"Mr. Qin, I'm so touched that you came to pick up the plane in person." Sure enough, Boguslayev was very excited after recognizing Qin Tao. He originally thought it was just Mr. Shi and the others, but he didn't expect Mr. Qin to come too.
.
"You are the first manufacturer to come to the exhibition. I am in charge of this defense exhibition project, so of course I have to come to greet you. Moreover, our group also has business dealings with your company. Do you want to go to the hotel first or the venue?"
"We want to go and see the venue," said Boguslaev, a man of action.
"Okay, let's go now. We can talk about business matters on the way."
There was a burst of excitement on Boguslayev's face, business?
They come to the defense exhibition just to sell their products. They already have business before they even start?
"good!"
The motorcade headed towards the defense exhibition venue. In the car, Qin Tao began to introduce.
"I wonder if your D-18T engine production line is still operating normally?"
"That's for sure, we can still keep this production line running." Boguslaev said: "Are you planning to buy a batch of backup engines for that An-225 transport aircraft?"
Although the engine life of the An-225 transport aircraft has reached 1,500 hours, which is much improved compared to those engines that can only operate for a few hundred hours before requiring overhaul, it is obviously not enough for the long life of an aircraft.
.
"Yes, we still need to purchase 12 engines so that we can fly until the An-225 transport aircraft is scrapped," Qin Tao said.
12 units
Engine! It is indeed a big deal! Boguslaev was excited for a while: "Of course, as long as we sign the contract, we can organize production immediately!"
"The contract will be signed during the defense exhibition to add some achievements to the defense exhibition," Qin Tao said.
D-18T is the most outstanding aviation engine in the Red Empire era, with a single thrust of 23 tons, second only to the NK32's 25 tons. It can be compared with the common D-30 engine, which is the main engine of the Il-76.
Later, it was also used in improvements such as the H-6. The thrust of this engine was only a dozen tons.
The D-18T engine not only has great thrust, but also has the lowest fuel consumption among Laomaozi engines. However, its cruising fuel consumption of 0.581 kg/kgf·hour is simply a record.
However, this engine has a disadvantage: low output.
Compared with the production of thousands of D-30s, the total production of D-18T is only a mere two hundred. After all, only An-124 and An-225 transport aircraft use this engine. The output of transport aircraft is not high, and of course the engine is only
It can't be higher.
This time, Qin Tao purchased 12 units at one time, which was a great gift to Boguslaev! Motor Sich Company can guarantee profits for one or two years by relying on orders for these engines.
Qin Tao had no choice. The An-225 used six engines and its lifespan was not long. He had no choice but to store two sets of backup engines. It is said that by 2010, the D-18T production line was completely shut down. Later, more
It was hit by a missile and the factory building was blown up. His An-225 cannot be grounded because it has no engine.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Your D-136 engine is also in production, right?"
"Yes, it is also in production and can be used for Mi-26 helicopters." Boguslaev was extremely excited. He came to the right place!
Before coming, there were some objections in the company. Mr. Qin did not come to invite him in person, but just sent an invitation. It was too disrespectful to them. They would have to spend money to come and it was not worth it. Don't come!
Fortunately, Motor Sich Company is already a private company, and Boguslayev has the final say. He defied all opinions and came over with technicians and exhibits. As soon as he arrived, Mr. Qin gave him a big gift!
Mingzhou Transportation Company also purchased the Mi-26 helicopter, which uses a D-136 turboshaft engine. One engine can output tens of thousands of horsepower, making it the most powerful in the world.
This kind of engine also needs a backup.
"Moreover, we also have modified engines." Boguslaev said: "The power output is greater, the life is longer, and the fuel consumption is lower."
Qin Tao nodded: "We are also purchasing four engines of this kind."
Another order for four units, Boguslaev was extremely excited, what a big deal!
"By the way, you are still producing AI-222-25 aero engines, right?"
The succession of good news made Boguslaev smile from ear to ear. He nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we also produce this kind of engine. How many do you plan to purchase?"
"We want to introduce technology and establish a specialized engine factory in our country for production. What do you think?"
The introduction of technology?
Boguslaev was stunned for a moment.
If you can sell finished products, no one can sell technology! The former is a steady stream of money, while the latter is a one-time deal!
Could it be that all the previous steps are foreshadowing for the final goal?
"Shi Lao and the others are developing the next generation trainer aircraft and have chosen your engine. Therefore, we want to introduce technology for production." Qin Tao explained.
"Mr. Qin, all you need to do is place an order and leave the production to us. There will definitely be no problems." Boguslayev had already woken up and quickly refused.
Qin Tao shook his head: "This kind of training aircraft will require a very large number of engines. Although we are very assured of you, the international situation is unpredictable. In the future, we are likely to face some problems. We cannot bear this kind of
risk, so if the engine is selected
We must seek our own production capabilities, Mr. Boguslaev, do you understand?"
