"Xiao Yang got the design drawings of the White Swan from Kyiv seven years ago, and at that time, all aspects of the country were not good, and now many conditions are met, and it is indeed time to restart this 'Thunder Plan'. ”

Xue Yuedong paused and said: "However, this plan was imitated before, and the White Swan was a work in the 80s, it does not have stealth capabilities, and it only relies on supersonic penetration, and now there is no large aircraft that can rely on high speed to escape the hunt of the air defense network, and it can still only be used to launch cruise missiles and other long-range attack weapons outside the enemy's defense circle, enriching Damao's conventional long-range strike capabilities, so this plan must be revised again." ”

At that time, Yang Jie and Huo Xiaotian got the design drawings of several transport aircraft and bombers and some engine materials from the Sapphire Design Bureau in Ermao, although the core information of the engine was taken away by Da Mao's intelligence department, but the design drawings of bombers like the White Swan are still very complete, and at the same time, after the drawings of the An-124 were obtained, Xifei Group Company also began to imitate the work two years ago.

Zhang Haiping opened his mouth and said: "The chief means that we are going to redesign a stealth strategic bomber?"

Xue Yuedong looked at Zhang Haiping at this time: "Which domestic aviation manufacturing company has this technical strength now?"

"At this stage, it is still Huake Aviation Technology Co., Ltd. has this technical strength, the company's shadow UAV is the world's first and largest stealth UAV, and it has successfully evaded the large ground early warning radar of country A and neon country, and finally although it was captured by the early warning satellite of country A, but this UAV still got rid of the attack from the ground, and Huake Aviation Technology Co., Ltd. is world-class in this regard. ”

Zhang Haiping said.

"Let Xiao Yang come over tomorrow, I want to ask his opinion. ”

Xue Yuedong opened his mouth and said.

"Does the chief want to hand over this task to Huaxing Group to complete?"

"The number of strategic bombers like this is not much, the cost is extremely expensive, and the construction of such a production line and research and development expenses have to invest a lot of money every year, and now the national military expenditure is only 50 billion US dollars, and there is only so much money, and a large piece of strategic bombers is allocated to other weapons and equipment fields. ”

Xue Yuedong opened his mouth and said: "Now the most profitable in China is only Huaxing Group Company, they have a lot of cash in their hands, if we guide Huaxing Group Company to invest funds, technology and talents in the research and development and manufacturing of strategic bombers, it is also a very good thing." ”

"Strategic bombers must be manufactured in China, and we can also borrow the domestic military industry model of country A, which can introduce Huaxing Group into the field of research and development and production of national strategic weapons, and also stimulate these state-owned enterprises, otherwise it will always be a pool of stagnant water. ”

Xue Yuedong opened his mouth and said: "The following companies are used to eating big pot rice, and there are too many people who hold the old ideas, so they have to be forced." ”

Zhang Haiping nodded and said: "Chief, the military will propose a bidding project for the design of a strategic bomber, and also issue a bidding invitation letter to Huake Aviation Technology Company." ”

Xue Yuedong nodded.

In the afternoon of the next day, Yang Jie also met with Xue Yuedong, Song Xinyang, and Zhang Haiping in zhōng nán hǎi.

Seeing that all the bigwigs were looking at him, Yang Jie smiled: "I'm a little flattered that the chiefs are looking at me like this!"

Seeing that Yang Jie could still joke at this time, Zhang Hai said calmly: This kid is indeed very bold.

"Comrade Yang Jie, I need to tell you a good news, your Tianshan No. 1 engine is very important to our military, full support, we have officially approved the project, included in our secret project, project code 702. ”

Zhang Haiping said.

Yang Jie thought to himself that it was a very happy and proud thing that this engine could be included in the secret project of the military.

"Thank you for your concern. Yang Jie said.

"This is one of the most important projects of our military in the near future, and our military can bear 80% of the cost of technical verification and testing of this engine. ”

"Then thank you, Chief. ”

Yang Jie said with a smile.

"The state is now ready to launch this project of a new bomber, do you and your company have any ideas for this project?"

Zhang Haiping asked.

Yang Jie saw that all the bigwigs were looking at him in unison, and he also chuckled in his heart: No, the central government wants to hand over this task to me?

"To be honest, a project like a strategic bomber itself is not profitable, because the production is very small, and the cost cannot be reduced. According to my understanding, country A spent a total of 20.5 billion US dollars in the research and development process of the ghost bomber from 1981 to 1992, which is almost hundreds of billions of US dollars now, considering the current domestic price level and purchasing power parity advantage, it is certain that there will not be such a ghost as high, but it is also possible to exceed 100 billion yuan, plus the annual production and maintenance in the future, the entire project will cost at least about 300 billion yuan. ”

Yang Jie said: "I myself am very supportive of the development strategy bomber, but if such a large national defense project is handed over to our company to complete, I and my company will also be under great pressure." ”

"Don't sell it, if you have any requests, put them forward now. ”

Song Xinyang said at this time.

Yang Jie smiled: "Chiefs, I don't want to make any money on this strategic bomber project, as long as the capital is guaranteed, but the state must ensure that at least 500 Fokker F150s are purchased from Huaxia Fokker Company." ”

"500 planes, you kid has a really big appetite!"

Song Xinyang said.

"Chief Song, the scale of the domestic aviation market is still growing, and it will be able to digest these 500 trunk airliners in a few years, and this is also the normal demand of China. ”

Yang Jie said.

"This request of yours can be considered by the central government. ”

Xue Yuedong said at this time.

"If you have any other requirements, you can say them now. ”

Zhang Haiping said.

Yang Jie glanced at him and knew that this big guy was speaking for himself, he said with a smile: "We need a lot of scientific research and technical personnel to develop this project. ”

"There is no problem with this, as long as you bring it up, the elite soldiers of the major scientific research institutions in the country could have been transferred to your company to participate in research and development. ”

Huaxing Group is in a period of rapid development, itself needs a large number of high-tech talents, and now has to undertake such a large R & D project, Yang Jie also does not want to transfer too many personnel from within the company, so that all the talents of the country's major scientific research institutions can be selected by themselves to solve a great difficulty.

Yang Jie said: "Thank you, leaders, we will draw up a list immediately, and then draw up elite soldiers and strong generals from all over the country." ”

"However, there is one point to be made clear, those who have major scientific research projects in hand cannot be transferred for the time being, and those who have important leadership positions in major scientific research institutions cannot be transferred at will. ”

Zhang Haiping's meaning is obvious, there are restrictions on the transfer of these talents, and the military cannot transfer the director of a certain research institute, the chief engineer, or the like to Yonghan Aviation Technology Company, nor can it transfer the leader of a major scientific research project.

However, Yang Jie is very satisfied with this, and he is very satisfied that so many domestic scientific research institutions can send thousands of scientific and technological research and development personnel.

One of the strengths of Huaxing Group itself is that it has a large number of engineering and technical personnel, manufacturing and processing is already world-class, for Huaxing Group Company, the biggest difficulty in R&D, design and manufacturing strategic bombers is the problem in aerodynamic layout and flight control and engineering technology, but these problems are not particularly difficult things.
