Chapter 978: The Longbow Apache is at this level

"Oh, then why do I think the technology of the Xiangzhou plant is more advanced, doesn't the advanced technology represent the future development direction?"

The leader of the unit was a little puzzled when he heard Meng Qingguo's words, and he casually expressed his doubts.

If this was placed a few years ago, Meng Qingguo would have laughed and laughed, the problem is that now the two factories are supported by him alone, if the Xiangzhou factory is out of the dust, the life of the two factories will be even more difficult in the future.

So even if it is against my will, I have to say something that will help the other two factories.

So Meng Qingguo smiled: "Advanced technology is a good thing, but advanced technology does not necessarily represent the future development direction, for example, the GE36 propeller fan engine developed by General Motors in the eighties, the power is more than 20% greater than the aero engine of the same level, but the fuel consumption is half of the same level.

The GE36 propeller fan engine was a household name in the aviation industry in the 80s and 90s, and General Motors set off a paddle fan boom in the field of aero engines in the 80s.

This practice of riveting the blades of the engine turbine to act as a large-diameter fan gives the GE36 propeller fan engine unrivalled performance.

It was supposed to be in line with the direction of aero engine development, but by the end of the 80s, this trend gradually receded, and in the 90s, it disappeared as if nothing had happened.

Even General Motors, which once crazed on this technology, put it in the cold and has never been in care of it since.

The reason for this is very simple, that is, the performance of the GE36 propeller fan engine is good, but it is a hellish disaster for ground crew, that is to say, the propeller fan route represented by the GE36 propeller fan engine is not the optimal solution after the balance between performance and maintenance, and it is reasonable to be eliminated.

The leader of the unit who spoke to Meng Qingguo naturally knew the allusion of the GE36 paddle fan engine, and even if he didn't know, with his years of experience, he also understood that the technology was not advanced and the best, and the most important thing was suitability.

So he nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Meng Qingguo immediately raised his voice and continued: "I admit the technical ability of the Xiangzhou factory, but blind technological innovation is often accompanied by a waste of funds, our country is not rich, and the funds of the army are even more limited.

Therefore, in my opinion, aviation, especially in the field of helicopters, should still concentrate on doing great things, tilt resources to mature and time-tested technologies, and strive to make targeted breakthroughs in some basic fields, so as to make the helicopter field more stable and smoother. ”

Meng Qingguo said something extremely beautiful, not only the leaders of the troops around him, but even the other cadres on the bus agreed with these words, even the head of the headquarters at the front was also slightly bowed.

But if this beautiful word is broken and crushed, you will find that Meng Qingguo is full of private goods, despite this, Meng Qingdong still feels inappropriate, after all, this visit to Xiangzhou factory, I don't know what good things the other party is preparing to press the bottom of the box, in case the head of the headquarters and others look at the right eye, the resources in the next few years will be tilted to Xiangzhou, then how can the two factories of porcelain and Binjiang live.

Therefore, it is best to give everyone in the car a preconceived impression before arriving at the Xiangzhou plant, so that there is room for operation in the formulation of policies in the future, and now is a good time to instill this impression.

Now that he has an idea, it is natural to operate, especially after the head of the headquarters bowed his head, Meng Qingguo was even more bold, so he cleared his throat and said again: "The 'Silencer' helicopter is really good, and it has also created a precedent for our country's stealth aircraft, but this kind of helicopter must have applied many advanced technologies, which involves the issue of technological maturity; in addition to the problem of industrial mass production of these key technologies."

After all, many advanced technologies can be made in the laboratory, but this does not mean that it can be applied on a large scale, after all, the production capacity of the laboratory is so little, and it can be affordable to make a customization, don't even think about large-scale mass production, and if a product cannot be mass-produced, it means that his cost will be very high, his popularity rate will be very low, and it can also have some unexpected effects when used unexpectedly, once it needs to be on a large scale, it will not be able to play......"

Meng Qingguo almost regarded the minibus as a summary report meeting, and said a lot of crackling, and summed it up in one sentence, the advanced technology of the Xiangzhou factory is powerful, and it is still useless if it cannot be mass-produced.

Therefore, to maintain the basic investment, let the Xiangzhou factory continue to improve the new technology, and the tilt of resources is still towards the porcelain capital and Binjiang.

Where is the easy to use and solid straight-8 and straight-9 have long been hungry and thirsty.

As for the leaders of the troops in the minibus, after hearing Meng Qingguo's words, they were either silent, or frowning and pondering, or gathered together to discuss quietly, or simply looked ahead unmoved.

Again, the head of the headquarters did not say much, but there was no clear objection.

Meng Qingguo knew very well that everyone here was an old fox, and if they could see their attitude, then they didn't have to sit in this car, but Meng Qingguo felt that this was enough.

After all, there is not a veil between advanced technology and industrial mass production, and sometimes it is even out of reach, and this world is the United States that has achieved mass production on stealth aircraft, and there is one left, which one can be counted as one?

Therefore, the "silent ones" of Tengfei Group are not good because they are individual products made in order to win special subsidies and R&D funds for future helicopters.

Meng Qingguo didn't see too much of a similar approach, after all, he did it step by step from the front line of helicopter development, and he didn't know what the industry was tired of?

So he just needs to plant the seeds, and when the time comes, he will take a surprise look at the production line and processing workshop of the Xiangzhou factory, and everything will be clear.

With this idea, Meng Qingguo soon came to the Xiangzhou factory with the car.

Zhuang Jianye, who rushed back earlier, naturally greeted him in person, and routinely introduced the development of the Xiangzhou factory in recent years to the leaders of the troops, and pointed to the factory building in front of him and said: "Some time ago, the Z-12Pro helicopter ordered by Pakistan was assembled in this plant, do you want to go in and have a look?"

The head of the headquarters nodded.

Zhuang Jianye signaled the accompanying personnel of the Xiangzhou factory to register and open the door, and then a group of people rushed in, Meng Qingguo walked not far from the head of the headquarters, and looked very carefully, I have to say that Tengfei Group does have a set of management, and it is much stronger than the porcelain factory and the Binjiang factory in terms of cleanliness and process.

But in other aspects, there was nothing that made Meng Qingguo's eyes shine too much, and he was about to retract his gaze, when he heard the head of the headquarters greet him: "Old Meng, Xiaozhuang said that this thing is leading in the world, and what else is the American longbow Apache is at this level, you are an expert in this area, see if Tengfei Group is bragging." ”

Meng Qingguo hurried over when he heard this, he didn't care at first, thinking that Zhuang Jianye was really bragging, but when he looked at it, he couldn't pull out his eyes, and the next moment he raised his eyes to look at Zhuang Jianye, and asked like a ghost: "How did you make this thing?"
