While Zhong Xiangyang and Hu Guo were discussing what to do next, Wang Dazhi, Meng Haibo and Zhang Ying were also discussing this matter......

Meng Haibo first said: "Obviously, Southern Power has already known the news of our development of the vortex-2000, and they are now in a hurry, worried that our vortexe-2000 will reduce their orders for our vortexe-8 series after it is made." ”

Zhang Ying said with a smile: "Lao Zhong and Lao Hu may not know that we still have a plan for the vortex shaft-1500, right? ”

"Hey, hey, hey......"

Hearing Zhang Ying say this, several old men who are almost 60 laughed unscrupulously together: There is still some debate about whether the vortex shaft-2000 should be installed on the Wuzhi-9, after all, for the Wuzhi-9, the power of a total of 4000 shaft horsepower is indeed excessive, but if it is a total of 3000 shaft horsepower, it is just right.

After laughing, Wang Dazhi said: "But after all, the 'Arye' engine was introduced together with the Z-9, and the production of the whole machine was assigned to us at that time, and the production of the engine was assigned to their 331 factory. ”

After Wang Dazhi finished speaking, Meng Haibo and Zhang Ying stopped talking: Indeed, doing business, especially in Huaxia, is never a simple business, but a sophisticated person.

Meng Haibo spoke more directly, and simply asked Wang Dazhi: "Old Wang, what do you think?"

"I communicated with Kapaya, and he said that the reason why the Americans developed the 'Cobra' series so extreme has something to do with their national conditions," Wang Dazhi said: "After all, the 'Cobra' is mainly for the 'fourth-class people', and they have to develop the AH-1Z 'Zulu Cobra', a quasi-heavy helicopter gunship with a maximum take-off weight of up to 8,390 kilograms, on the basis of a light transport aircraft......."

Speaking of Lao Mei's fourth-class people, Meng Haibo and Zhang Ying both had uncontrollable smiles on their faces.

The chain of contempt is everywhere, even among the U.S. military, the Navy despises the Air Force, the Air Force despises the Army, and the Army despises the Marine Corps, which is where the U.S. military's first, second, third, and fourth classes come from.

But this statement is by no means just a joke, but because the US Marine Corps is really at the bottom of the four major armies, and is a veritable "fourth-class person", for example, in the annual routine defense budget, the US Marine Corps can usually get only 5% of the total budget, and it often does not reach this proportion - the dignified US Marine Corps, the establishment of tens of thousands of people, the annual military budget is only 5% of the total budget, can you imagine?

First of all, the U.S. Marine Corps, nicknamed Ma Run, as a branch of the military, does not have its own independent service department in the Ministry of Defense, but is managed by the Admiralty, can you believe this?

For example, the Navy has a Navy Department in the Pentagon, the Air Force has an Air Force Department in the Pentagon, and the Army has its own War Department in the Pentagon.

Maybe you have to ask, since Ma Run does not have his own military branch department in the Pentagon, what should he do with the military and political management in peacetime?

Easy to do!

Leave it to the Admiralty.

But for the Admiralty, the Navy is its own son, and Ma Run is just a disobedient wild son, how much do you think the Admiralty cares about Ma Run's affairs?

The small budget and the lack of its own branch of services in the Pentagon are only one aspect, and what is even more nonsense is that the US Marine Corps does not even have its own junior officer school, and needs the Navy to help it train junior officers - of course, officers from the naval academy and reserve officer corps who are ready to be promoted still need to pass the training and re-examination of the Marine Corps before they can join the company.

For example, during World War II, the army had already changed to eight large grains, and the Marines did not even have enough old Chuntian rifles, so they had to find ways to find some older and more unpopular rifles such as Lessing rifles to use.

For example, during the Gulf War, the third-class army had begun to use the M16A2 rifle, and the fourth-class people were still holding the M16A1 during the Vietnam War...... Knowing what you are thinking, there is no doubt that it is indeed the M60 that the army eliminated badly, which was picked up by poor Ma Run.

Seeing Meng Haibo and Zhang Ying laughing, Wang Dazhi certainly knew what they were laughing at, and said with a smile: "But our national conditions in China are different from those of Lao Mei, we don't have as serious military disagreement as Lao Mei, Kapaya told me that with the foundation of the Zhi-9, it is enough to achieve the maximum take-off weight of the Wuzhi-9 to about 5500 to 6000 kg, which is basically capable of most of the combat needs...... Well, according to Mr. Kayapa, if you want the Wuzhi-9 to have a maximum take-off weight of about 5,500 to 6,000 kilograms, a single engine can reach kilometers with 1,000 to 1,100 shaft horsepower.

As for the more complex and heavier combat missions to be faced in the future, it can be handed over to the heavy armed helicopters with higher scientific and technological content and stronger combat capability in the future. ”

When Wang Dazhi said this, Zhang Ying and Meng Haibo had roughly understood what he meant, everyone had been cooperating for so many years, and Meng Haibo did not shy away from it, and asked him directly: "Lao Wang, what do you mean, let's promise Southern Power to help them improve the vortex-8?"

"Yes, that's what I think," Wang Dazhi nodded and happily admitted: "What do you think, Lao Zhang?"

"For the sake of the friendship between the two units over the years, it's not impossible," Zhang Ying frowned: " But the reason why Rabinovich developed the turboshaft-2000 so quickly is because he is one of the developers of the AI-222-25 turbofan engine, and he is very familiar with all aspects of the AI-222-25, so he can quickly come up with the turboshaft-2000 based on the AI-222-25 core engine, but he is not familiar with the turboshaft-8 series at all, and if he wants to help Southern Power improve the turboshaft-8A, how long will it take him to understand this engine and come up with an improvement plan? And is this improvement plan necessarily reliable?"

Hearing Zhang Ying say this, Wang Dazhi also fell silent: Yes, Vadim Rabinovich is not familiar with the vortex-8A.
