There is no way, the highly flexible combat mode of the US "Tomahawk" cruise missile in the Gulf War, the bizarre and inexplicable trajectory of action, and the final point-like damage effect not only hit Iraq, which has an integrated air defense system, but also shocked people of insight engaged in national defense research in China.

This is because, in some respects, the domestic air defense forces have not yet caught up with Iraq's advanced forces, what should we do if we are confronted with cruise missiles similar to the "Tomahawk"? Is it just to watch this thing run rampant and be beaten passively?

Because of this, in the case that it is not equipped with similar weapons, doing a good job of defense has become the top priority of the headquarters, but this idea is easy to say, the country does not even have a clear concept of what cruise missiles are, and how to defend?

At this time, the Attack-2 UAV unexpectedly appeared in the confrontation exercise of the Red and Blue Coalition Forces, and those researchers engaged in cruise missile defense saw that this was not the prototype of the target missile that they had been looking for for a long time, so before the exercise was over, the relevant report had already been submitted to the head of the headquarters, and through the head of the headquarters, it was reported to the headquarters and the decision-making level at a higher level.

At other times, it doesn't matter how you save money or how you tighten your belt, but when it comes to the country's fundamental security, China will spare no effort to make up for this shortcoming, as was the case with the two bombs and one satellite in those years, and the same is true for the special target missiles for the target-5 cruise missile.

Therefore, after quickly passing the identification of the expert group, a large order of 200000000000000 fell on the head of Tengfei Group.

This is also why, compared to the general production of other aero engine plants, the WD-30S turbofan engine production cluster of Tengfei Aviation Power Company around the No. 0 assembly workshop will be so busy.

There are 500 turbofan engines equipped with target-5 cruise missiles, plus 100 spare engines, for a full 600 units.

You must know that this is not a bicycle, sewing machine, the production line opens, the flow of the general off the line, more than half a year can digest the order of seventy-seven-eighty-eight, that is an aero engine, but also a high-performance small turbofan engine, every component is comparable to the existence of industrial art, any process is cutting-edge level, the production cycle is calculated by months.

Not to mention anything else, the outermost casing of the entire aero engine is considered to be a relatively simple technical level among all components, but it is such a simple existence, which also requires the preparation and processing of light alloy materials or composite materials, integral molding, electron beam or laser welding and other processes and manufacturing technology, and a series of production steps, at least about 20 days to come up with a well-processed casing.

This is still simple, difficult such as an extraducted fan, which requires titanium alloy to wrap the honeycomb structure to form a curved shape that facilitates air flow.

This involves metallurgy, composite materials, heat treatment, precision machining and other processes and manufacturing technologies, every step is sloppy, and you can't get up fast.

As for the hell-level turbine blades, not to mention, it was a very tortuous process from the beginning of metal smelting.

Because of this, in the eyes of outsiders, the production cluster of the WD-30S turbofan engine of Tengfei Aviation Power is very large, but in the eyes of several knowledgeable leaders, it still feels a little small, after all, with the ultra-long production cycle of turbofan engines, the annual production capacity of this production cluster is only about 100 units.

Wouldn't it take six years to produce 600 units, and for a piece of training equipment urgently needed by the troops, the six-year production cycle is really a bit long.

Therefore, some leaders have already begun to think about whether to propose the establishment of similar production clusters in other factories after the inspection is over, so as to expand production capacity and speed up the process of equipping the troops.

Zhuang Jianye and Liu Chun were not aware of what some of the leaders were thinking, and there was no way to come this time, and there were more people who came this time, so they couldn't see it; the second and most important point is that each of these leaders was not given for nothing, and if they wrote all their thoughts on their faces, I believe they would not have a general star on their shoulders.

So it's normal not to notice, of course, even if you notice it, the two won't care, since you don't have the means to leave the big customers behind when you are waiting for the big customers to visit, then the two of them have really been in vain all these years.

So after Liu Chun briefly introduced the situation of the No. 12 workshop, he glanced at Zhuang Jianye, Zhuang Jianye nodded slightly, and Liu Chun immediately smiled more kindly: " Chiefs, the machining of aviation heating components is the most critical part of the entire engine manufacturing, and the turbine blades are the key to the key, the traditional manufacturing process in the past, it takes a month to machine the turbine blades, and we take off aviation power using the new technology accumulated in recent years, creatively developed a series of new processing equipment, including the turbine blades and other engine hot parts machining shortened to about half a month. ”

"Half a month?"

Several troop leaders asked with some surprise.

Liu Chun nodded: "That's right!"

Saying that, Liu Chun pointed to a large equipment not far away: "Ladies and gentlemen, please see, this is the NB-600 CNC EDM machine tool that our group just developed at the beginning of this year, which is mainly used for the machining of key components of aero engines such as the honeycomb structure of the engine, the blade sealing caster teeth, and the sealing letterpress......

Liu Chun is worthy of being an old fool, a CNC EDM machine tool was stunned to make him say that it is difficult to find in the sky and difficult to find on the ground, but everyone present did not have too many objections, but opened their eyes one by one and listened very seriously.

The reason is very simple, although there are also applications of EDM in China, there is no such large-scale replacement of traditional machining as Tengfei Aviation Power.

It's not that I don't want to, after all, EDM is a kind of precision in the field of special processing, and the accuracy can be controlled at the micron level under normal circumstances, and the machining process is not complicated, and with CNC technology, it can even complete the processing of components with high precision and complex shapes.

This is limited by foreign trade policies, can not get high-precision multi-axis CNC machine tools in the country is tantamount to a project alternative processing technology.

The problem is that the principle of EDM is not complicated, but CNC technology is a very complex category, especially in the field of aviation manufacturing special processing, is not just a program can be used as a CNC program to produce, but it takes years of accumulation, to obtain a huge amount of aviation product processing data, after the composition of the database, and then slowly explore, detailed modification, and then use the algorithm to make the machine tool running program, which can make the EDM CNC machine tool in line with the actual production conditions.

Otherwise, how can CNC machine tools become high-end manufacturing, in addition to precision, the key is that these things that cannot be seen behind are supporting the value of such products.

Other domestic factories have not done well in this regard in the past ten years, anyway, they can buy foreign products at any time, so they have relaxed the self-accumulation in actual production, and when the situation changes, the neck will naturally be choked.

Tengfei Group is different, so many years to Peng Chuan as the core of the professional equipment development team has been sorting out and collecting Tengfei Group's actual production processing data, can be described in all aspects of everything, and then cooperate with the Institute of Aeronautical Computer, through the optimized data to write industrial software and CNC programs in line with the actual situation of Tengfei Group, so after several years of exploration and accumulation, finally born a large number of professional production and processing equipment in the field of aviation manufacturing, which has become another major product system of Tengfei Group.

That is, NB series high-end CNC equipment.
