With a breakthrough in materials, the designers of the new generation of fighter pre-research project team have become more bold, and several teams supported by the headquarters have come up with their own preliminary design plans, which can be described as a competition for a while.

Among them, the Snow Owl scheme proposed by the Northeast Aviation Research Institute relying on the mature technology of digesting the Russian Su-27 fighter, and the Weilong scheme with the No. 10 engineering team as the core and fully absorbing the unique technology accumulated by the No. 10 project and sublimating the aerodynamic layout of the small aspect ratio full-lift body are the most eye-catching.

Of course, whether it is a snow owl or a Weilong, Tengfei Group is an important supporting supplier that they cannot avoid, and because of this, while the two are fiercely competing for a new generation of fighter jets at the headquarters level, the pre-research teams of both sides are frequently visiting Tengfei Group.

In addition to exchanging feelings, the most important thing is to keep track of the progress of Ascendas Group in various supporting aspects, so as to bring back the latest information and data, so as to improve the feasibility of their respective solutions.

In this regard, the pre-research team with the No. 10 project as the core can be said to be the first to get the first month, relying on the convenience of the No. 10 project to support the hot fight with the Tengfei Group, not only obtained the highest version of the JSNB-II system developed by the Tengfei Group, but also the core personnel of the team to stay within the Tengfei Group in the form of secondment, so that the latest progress of the Tengfei Group can be tracked at any time.

The Northeast Aviation Research Institute is not so convenient, of course, as the big brother in the domestic aviation field, the big brother who carries the handle and looks down on everything, the Northeast Institute does not disdain to do so, so the Northeast Institute will carry forward the Northeast Lao Tie's consistent ruthless and bold words, and directly promise that the composite materials in the snow owl program of the Tengfei Group will reach 30.47%, and then give the Tengfei Group a look that anyone understands.

The meaning is obvious, follow our good big brother in the Northeast, and I guarantee that you will eat and drink spicy food, and a piece of Huazi will smoke half a root and throw half a pack.

I have to say that the Northeast Institute is really domineering, you must know that the composite materials of the Americans' F-22 aircraft account for only a little more than 24%, not yet 25%, but even so, it is already a model with the most composite materials in the world's combat aircraft.

The snow owl scheme of the Northeast Institute has greatly exceeded F-22 in the proportion of composite materials, reaching 30%+, which shows that the ambition of the Northeast Institute is still full.

In contrast, the Weilong plan taken by the pre-research team with Project 10 as the core is a bit stingy, and the proportion of composite materials has only increased by 9 percentage points from 6% of Project 10 to 15%.

Although several leaders in the team said that they would make corresponding improvements according to the actual situation and technical achievements in the future, it is foreseeable that the proportion of Weilong's composite materials will reach about 20%, and the maximum will not exceed F-22.

In the face of this situation, as the head of Tengfei Group is very entangled, from the actual situation of production and marketing, Zhuang Jianye hopes that the snow owl plan of the Northeast Institute will have the last laugh, after all, 30.47% of the composite material proportion will make Tengfei Group have a very bright long-term expectation, at least so many years of investment in money has the possibility of recovery.

But from the perspective of human feelings, Zhuang Jianye thought that the No. 10 project could win, no way, so many years of development of Tengfei Group is to rely on the No. 10 project to do a little bit of support, where is the source of technology of Tengfei Group, I believe that the future Weilong project is the same.

On the one hand, there is efficiency, and on the other hand, technology.

So much so that during that time, Zhuang Jianye was very entangled, and the originally thick hairline retreated a lot.

Fortunately, Zhuang Jianye's choice difficulty did not last long, because a decision of the Northeast Institute was broken, and the balance point to break the deadlock was none other than an aero engine.

Because the thrust-to-weight ratio of the new generation of aero engines should reach more than 10, the thrust should be at the level of 12 to 14 tons, and the current level in China, let alone such a high standard of aero engines, can not be done even if it is inferior.

Therefore, the Northeast Institute decided to make two preparations for aero engines, on the one hand, actively introduce Russian high-thrust military aero engine products, and solve the problem first.

On the other hand, based on the domestic market, the new model will be launched, and strive to integrate the high-quality resources of a number of aero engine manufacturers, including Tengfei Group, and fully invest in the research and development of new models, and strive to make finished products in the early 10s of the 21st century and batch equipment in the 20s.

The idea of the Northeast Institute is good, the problem is that the road based on the country has taken the old road of blindly going on the horse before, the aero engine is not to build a house, a big hand wave, shout a slogan on the direct on, that is the most experience and technology of the industrial category, patting the head on the new model is tantamount to building a building in the sand, the idea of complete sand sculpture.

What's more, it is good to play a game of chess in the whole country, but the technical routes and development levels of various enterprises are different, some follow the rough points of Soviet Russia, and some take the small and fresh ones of Europe, and there are those who are staring at the United States to tinker with high-tech and sophisticated skills.

Such a miscellaneous style line will come together, not to mention who to listen to, that is, a technical solution does not collapse, even if it is thankful.

In contrast, the pre-research team with Project 10 as the core is much more realistic, and through the training of Project 10 from scratch, the entire pre-research team considers all aspects of the process and various elements of the combat aircraft both realistic and rigorous, showing a very good pragmatic style.

Because of this, they know very well that it is impossible to blindly pat their heads on the aero engine, but to carefully analyze every actual situation.

Therefore, they also put forward two preparations, the target of foreign introduction is also Russia, but in terms of domestic autonomy is much more cautious, not only send team members to various aviation development plants and subordinate supporting factories to do research, but also often organize leaders and technical cadres of various aviation development enterprises to discuss.

So as to understand the latest developments and development potential of domestic aviation development and production.

After a year and a half of research and investigation, the general leader of the pre-research team and the current chief designer of the No. 10 project suddenly called Zhuang Jianye one morning and only asked: "How much time does it take for Tengfei Group to build a 14-ton high-thrust engine?"

Zhuang Jianye was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized something, but he still carefully calculated and gave a not very conservative number: "About 15 years." ”

"15 years~~~" Hearing this number, the chief engineer on the other end of the phone suddenly sighed: "At that time, I estimated that my whole body was buried in the soil......"

After speaking, he smiled heartily: "But I will insist on living until that time, I hope you can make the old man and I have no regrets after I die!"

At that moment, Zhuang Jianye put away the immodest nature of the past, and wanted to say something, but he felt that his throat was a little tight, and until the phone hung up, Zhuang Jianye did not come out of that indescribable emotion.

It wasn't until the assistant boy came in to remind Zhuang Jianye that he had been sitting in the office all day, then shook his head and picked up the phone again......
