Yang Jie also smiled after hearing Patles Kane's words, everyone is a smart person, and the technical advantages of Huaxing Group in UAVs are mainly in autonomous flight control systems and communication transmission and weapon control systems.

The Thales Group is also involved in the research and development of the stealth drone Neuron, and is also one of the subsystem contractors, but the Thales Group is obviously very coveted by the UAV market and wants to get a piece of the pie.

"I have no objection to the creation of a joint venture, but we do not supply weapons systems. Yang Jie said resolutely.

"Of course, our joint projects are all civilian products. ”

Patrice Kane said with a grin.

A few days later, after seeing off the delegation of Thales Group, Yang Jie also inspected the R&D center of the joint venture between China Fokker and Ilyushin Aviation Group.

This R&D center now gathers more than 500 R&D designers, and Ilyushin Aviation Group has also sent more than 200 R&D designers to speed up the R&D progress.

This heavy-duty transport aircraft with the internal model "Universiade" 001 of China Fokker Company has completed the research and development of aerodynamic layout technology and flight control system after several months of research and development, and has now entered the research and development stage of digital prototype.

The internal model of Ilyushin Aviation Group is the Il-106X, with a maximum load capacity of 150 tons, the same cargo compartment size as the An-124, four engine schemes, and a simple runway short take-off and landing capability.

Da Mao insisted that the domestically produced transport aircraft would use its own developed engines and its own avionics system.

For this insistence, Yang Jie thinks it doesn't matter, the four D18t turbofan engines that were outstanding in the Soviet era before the An-124 are all pure Ermao design and manufacturing, with a thrust of 23 to 26 tons, and Da Mao's own large bypass is 16 tons of thrust than the turbofan engine, if they want to re-develop the same thrust engine as the D18t turbofan engine, it will take at least seven or eight years, and it will take at least seven or eight years, and it will take at least seven or eight years, and it is under the condition of sufficient funds.

Moreover, Yang Jie is not very interested in the fuel consumption and mute effect and life of the turbofan engine.

It is recognized that Da Mao's engine thrust is large enough, but Maozi's rough style makes their engines destined to pay little attention to fuel consumption, life and quiet effect, and it is difficult to make a fine engine.

The engines developed by Yonghan Aviation Technology Co., Ltd. are strictly in accordance with the standards of Western countries, or even more stringent, so the performance and reliability of the engines have reached a very high level.

Moreover, the thrust of Yonghan Airlines' Kunlun 500 series engine even slightly exceeds that of the D18t turbofan, so this high-thrust engine can be directly used on this heavy-duty transport aircraft, and it is their own business whether Da Mao uses it or not.

Moreover, not only in the research and development process of the digital prototype of this transport aircraft, Yang Jie required that the standards of Zhonghua Fokker Company be strictly followed, but also the jointly developed F200 passenger aircraft must also be in accordance with the standards here, without accommodating the R&D designers sent by Ilyushin Aviation Group Company.

Although the Ilyushin Aviation Group Company also developed and designed a variety of civil aircraft during the Soviet period, the Soviet Union did a very rough job in terms of comfort and low fuel consumption that the Soviet Union paid special attention to in civil passenger aircraft, and even Damao's own domestic airlines did not like to operate the civil aircraft produced before the Ilyushin Aviation Group Company.

It was not easy for China Fokker to master a complete set of standards and specifications with the help of Fokker, and Yang Jie would not allow the standards to be lowered.

As for whether Damao's domestic production line is also produced in accordance with this set of standards or whether it can be achieved, that is an internal matter of the production line of Damao United Aviation Manufacturing Group Company, but the standards of Zhonghua Fokker Company will not be reduced in the slightest.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Da Mao and the CIS countries have gone through more than 10 years of turmoil, the original aviation industry has been very badly damaged, and now Da Mao no longer has the ability to produce large passenger aircraft. In fact, in 2002, the group company launched the Rt-21 short- and medium-range trunk airliner program, which has a design index of 165-200 seats and a range of 6,000 kilometers narrow-body single-aisle medium trunk airliner, which belongs to the same type as the Boeing 737 passenger aircraft, the Airbus A-320 passenger aircraft and the COMAC R-919 passenger aircraft and the F150 of the Zhonghua Fokker Company.

It took more than three years for the company to achieve the first flight of the F150, which was very fast, and now it has begun to be delivered on a large scale, and the development of the Rt-21, which began at the same time, is not over.

Of course, this is also indispensable for the domestic high-level to force the international giants such as Snecma, Honeywell, Rockwell Collins, and Thales to submit to the country, agree to transfer technology to domestic enterprises, and form joint ventures with domestic enterprises to carry out localized production and improve research and development.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the very rapid progress of Huaxing Group and domestic military industry group companies in avionics equipment.

As the key to the revival of Damao's civil aviation industry, the RT-21 is the first mainline airliner developed and produced entirely in accordance with Western civil airliner standards, and it is also the first project that integrates the joint research and development of the three giants of large aircraft and seeks international cooperation from all parties.

Although the Soviet Union was able to independently develop such a cross-era giant as the Tu-144 supersonic passenger aircraft, it was largely supported by a super-large country composed of 15 republics, and the population of the country was about to exceed 300 million before its disintegration, and the population was close to that of Eagle Sauce, and it was this huge closed market that allowed the Soviet Union's civil aviation industry to develop.

At that time, the Soviet Union was indeed able to build large passenger aircraft, and there were many of them, the main reason was to meet the internal needs of this super-large country, even if the performance was worse than that of these aircraft in Western countries, but the domestic people could only take hundreds of Tu-154 and Tu-204 passenger planes with a very high accident rate.

Therefore, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the domestic civil aviation market of the CIS countries, including Da Mao, was immediately occupied by Boeing and Airbus, and even Da Mao's own domestic airlines disliked these passenger planes left over from the Soviet Union and quickly eliminated these passenger planes.

Even if Da Mao's own country has suffered more than ten years of turmoil, fortunately, the foundation of the aviation industry of large aircraft is still there, the production assembly line can still be repaired, the drawings can be turned over and can be referenced, and all kinds of accessories can be purchased from the West, so it can be said that the Rt-21 is a assembled aircraft of President Vladimir in order to revitalize his country's civil aviation industry.

At present, large aircraft manufacturers are all global industrial chains, and everyone is competing in the integration ability of various subsystems, and the standard specifications and experienced engineers and technical teams accumulated by Fokker over the years have indeed made the performance and quality of the aircraft produced by Zhonghua Fokker very high.

In order to get several aircraft intellectual property rights and technical patents of Fokker before, Huaxing Group paid billions of dollars to buy them from the Netherlands and Germany, and it has almost been digested now, and at the same time, through the development of F150, it has also applied for a lot of technical patents.

At present, a relatively complete industrial chain has been formed in China through the production of F150 and other models by China Fokker Company, and a multi-level R&D system has been formed.

In the R&D and engineering design links, in addition to China Fokker and COMAC large-scale comprehensive aircraft manufacturing enterprises, there are also many independent engineering design and R&D institutions, and domestic universities and R&D institutions involved in the aviation industry are involved, forming a variety of levels of R&D echelons.

In the aircraft manufacturing process, all links from the manufacture of engines, materials, electronic equipment, information and communication systems, various components to final assembly have basically been localized.

Huaxing Group can manufacture engines and many high-end materials as well as electronic equipment and communication systems, and many well-known foreign manufacturers have also achieved localized production, so there is a lot of choice.

In these respects, the USSR was not very good in terms of technologies and materials for the manufacture of civilian airliners.

After the 80s and 90s of the last century, these aircraft manufacturers in Western countries began to use a large number of new aviation materials to manufacture civil airliners in order to reduce fuel consumption rate, improve comfort, improve the life of the airframe, etc., such as the use of carbon fiber composite materials to manufacture large structural parts of the aircraft, which made the aircraft life, maintainability, fuel consumption rate and other indicators significantly improved, while the Soviet Union was slow to act in aircraft manufacturing technology and materials, and also stuck to the traditional metal aircraft manufacturing, which was seriously outdated in this wave, with poor ride comfort, It is known for its high fuel consumption and high maintenance costs, and its competitiveness is inherently insufficient.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, this closed market of almost 300 million people was forced to open up, and it was turbulent for more than ten years.

Although Da Mao has a huge territory, it has a population of just over 100 million, and this market has been monopolized by Boeing and Airbus, and there is no market space to cultivate its own civil aviation industry.

The domestic market of rabbits is different, the population is too large, and the high-level has the ability to control the civil aircraft entering the country, and it is also to support their own domestic civil aviation industry.

When Fokker moved its production line to China and COMAC was established, the senior management also forced overseas aviation equipment manufacturers to transfer technology and achieve localized production, and at the same time forced domestic airlines to purchase products from China Fokker, which created a very good development space for China Fokker Company.

Of course, China Fokker also seized this opportunity, and rose rapidly in just over five years, and its products have also been recognized by domestic and foreign airlines, which is also the result of the efforts of the internal employees of China Fokker.
