The Chinese side attaches great importance to the strong interest shown by Nepal's Y-6, especially the ministries and commissions in charge of the aviation industry, which are completely regarded as the focus of their work, and even pay more attention to them in some aspects than fighters such as the J-5, J-6, and J-7.

This is mainly because the Y-6 is a highly adaptable general aviation aircraft, in addition to the military, it also has great advantages in civilian use, especially in passenger transport, the disaster relief and disaster relief tasks in the southern Tibetan area are highlighted, whether it is the transfer of seriously ill victims or the rotation of border garrisons, Y-6 has played an irreplaceable role.

It can be said that without the timely and efficient erection of the air bridge to the disaster area, it would be impossible for China to successfully complete the rescue work in the disaster area and the subsequent reconstruction of the disaster area in such a short period of time.

However, this kind of advanced aircraft that can carry people and can safely pass through high-altitude areas has no precedent for export in China.

If the Y-6 can create a first in this regard, it will be tantamount to creating history: domestic passenger aircraft will break the foreign monopoly and enter the world market.

With this sentence, the year-end achievements of the ministries and commissions were instantly full.

If anyone dares to say that the domestic aviation industry has become the foundry factory of foreign aviation giants, advanced manned passenger aircraft has become a monopoly of foreign brands, and domestic air transport has become the backyard of foreign aviation manufacturers, the leaders of the ministries and commissions will definitely spray a mouthful of salt soda, and then proudly straighten their chests and respond with a full force: "Open your eyes and take a good look at Yun 6!"

Therefore, the excellent performance of the Yun 6 during the disaster relief, although the main leaders of the ministry are happy, but always feel that the value of the Yun 6 has not been maximized, it is at this time that Nepal Baba came to consult the situation of the Yun 6, intending to have a double sound at home and abroad, and the leaders of the ministry and commission will naturally seize this opportunity with the most enthusiastic attitude.

Tengfei Aviation Manufacturing Corporation's positive attitude towards the ministry this time is of course to raise both hands and feet to support, so many years are Tengfei Aviation Manufacturing Corporation itself alone in foreign countries, and now the national team is out of the horse, to help sell, Tengfei Aviation Manufacturing Corporation is naturally happy to be idle.

So it is very simple to give the low-profile version of the Plateau Eagle A, the medium-sized version of the Plateau Eagle B, and the high-end version of the Plateau Eagle C, that is, the Yun-6 of the Chinese Air Force equipment today, three versions for Nepal to choose.

There is no essential difference in the architecture of the three Plateau Eagles, they are all straight upper wings with support rods, the same fixed rear three-point landing gear, the height, length, and even the layout of the cockpit are exactly the same, and even from a distance, there is no difference in the appearance of the three Plateau Eagles, just like a mold carved out.

But in fact, the three Plateau Eagles are essentially different inside, not to mention anything else, just take the materials used in the three models are different.

Plateau Eagle A uses the most common aviation aluminum; Plateau Eagle B slightly better uses aviation aluminum and aluminum-nickel alloy, and is equipped with a simple rubber cushion material commonly used in pressurized cabins; as for the foreign trade version of Yun 6, the so-called Plateau Eagle C uses a lightweight and expensive integrated composite honeycomb structure material.

It's like the difference between a house made of wood, bricks, or reinforced concrete, even if it looks exactly the same, the performance is very different.

Because the main materials are different, the manufacturing process is different, and the performance of the finished product made by different processes is naturally different.

What's more, Tengfei Aviation Manufacturing Corporation selects different engines according to the different positioning of the three models, and the Plateau Eagle A does not have a pressurized cabin and cannot perform high-altitude flight missions, so Tengfei Aviation Manufacturing Corporation positions this model as an ordinary agricultural aircraft.

The optional is the Tengfei Aviation Manufacturing Corporation has matured D-30WL turboprop engine, power of 645 kilowatts, shaft horsepower of 876 horsepower.

With a load of 1.52 tons, a range of 1,800 kilometers and a practical ceiling of 3,800 meters, it has a good short take-off and landing capacity, and is mainly solid and durable, and has the important task of further improving the D-30WL turboprop engine.

The Plateau Eagle B is a bit better than the Plateau Hawk A, with partial pressurized cabin performance and a basic air conditioning system and wing de-icing, but no air circulation.

The practical ceiling can reach 7,000 kilometers, but it is only a theoretical value, the general flight altitude is below 3,000 meters, and the engine is selected from the TPE331-10 turboprop produced by Honeywell in the United States, with 776 kilowatts and a shaft horsepower of 1050 horsepower.

With a load of 1.64 tons and a range of 1,800 kilometers, it is positioned as a short-range passenger and cargo transport model, and can be optionally equipped with a business jet kit to convert it into a small business jet.

The last is the Chinese Air Force equipment of the Y-6, whether it is materials, technology, supporting equipment or engines, have been greatly upgraded, and even in the later plan of the Tengfei Aviation Manufacturing Corporation, the Plateau Eagle C for export will also be equipped with a set of retractable landing gear.

As a result, the Plateau Eagle C, which has a maximum speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour, has increased to 400 kilometers, of course, the corresponding short-distance take-off and landing capabilities and adaptability to take-off and landing conditions have been greatly reduced.

However, Tengfei Aviation Manufacturing Corporation positions the Plateau Eagle C as a high-end flagship aircraft, mainly used for business jets and government aircraft; in addition to plateau transportation, it can be used as a multi-mission tactical platform for troops, and can be converted into a communication command aircraft, a maritime patrol aircraft, a small anti-submarine aircraft, and even a small air early warning aircraft.

In this way, the short-distance take-off and landing ability and adaptability of take-off and landing conditions that are discounted by the plateau eagle C are nothing, and it will not be possible for a certain big guy to take off and land on the rural dirt road all day long, the plane doesn't matter, where is the big guy's face put?

So this little shrinkage in performance is not a problem at all.

Of course, the positioning of the three models is different, the tasks are different, the performance is also very different, and the price is naturally very different, the plateau eagle A belongs to the entry-level, and the price is also the cheapest, with a price of one million yuan.

The Plateau Eagle B has the strongest versatility, the greatest mission flexibility, and the highest cost performance, with a price of 2.2 million yuan.

Plateau Eagle C, because it is a high-end model, the price will naturally rise, and the basic type of fixed landing gear equipped by the Air Force, that is, the Y-6, is priced at 3 million yuan.

The Plateau Eagle C-100, which is equipped with retractable landing gear and a luxury business jet kit, will cost 3.6 million yuan.

As for tactical support aircraft that want to add various military kits and convert them into tactical support aircraft for different tactical missions, they will start at least 5 million yuan.

The above quotations are all domestic prices, as for the export price, Tengfei Aviation Manufacturing Corporation is very simple and rude, directly exchange the yuan into US dollar units.
