Chapter 1014: Let's get one
[Unmodified Version]
Jiang Chen was petrified in an instant, uncle, this is an airplane, and it is a military transport plane, not a car, let alone a toy, you can get one if you say it. The C-130 transport aircraft is a medium-sized four-engine turbofan multi-purpose tactical transport aircraft developed by the Sid Aircraft Manufacturing Company in the fifties of the last century. C-130 is one of the world's most successfully designed, longest-used, and most countries in service, with more than 60 years of service since its first flight on August 23, 1954, and has been used by more than 70 countries or regions, with a total production of more than 2,300 aircraft, and nearly 40 modifications of various missions. The C-130 can take off and land on front-line airstrip runways, deliver or airdrop military personnel and equipment to the battlefield, and can be used to evacuate the wounded on return. After the modification, it is used to perform various tasks, and the models used for electronic surveillance, air command, control and communication include EC-130 and EC-130Q, in addition to search and rescue and recovery, air refueling, special mission, meteorological detection, maritime patrol and air early warning, in addition to a large number of civilian types.
Jiang Chen has also been fascinated by this transport aircraft for a long time, but this is a military product, is it so easy to get? So he frowned and smiled bitterly at Lu Lao: "Lu Lao, why do you want it, don't we have luck, and all the performance is not bad." ”
Lu Lao looked at Jiang Chen's expression and shook his head with a smile and said: "This is different, Yunba is a transport aircraft developed on the basis of the Soviet-based An-12 transport aircraft, and in terms of system, it still belongs to the Soviet-based aircraft." And you know the level of industrial manufacturing in our country, so in terms of production and manufacturing, whether it is in the manufacturing process and related technology of various parts, or in the comprehensive aerodynamic shape, airborne electronic equipment, and control system, there is a certain gap with foreign advanced transport aircraft. Although the C130 is also an old aircraft, it has been continuously improved to make it arguably the most reliable and high-performance aircraft in the mid-size transport aircraft. If we can have such a transport aircraft, then we can study the relevant details of the aircraft fuselage and related parts, electronic equipment, and transmission devices, which will be of great reference significance for the development of our aircraft. In addition, it is not that we are hypocritical, but when the aviation R&D base and the Husle Lake aviation production base are completed, we will go back and forth between the two places in an ordinary way. The car and train alone are a bit of a waste of time, and there are airports in both places, so we need a plane to help us get between the two places. ”
There are a lot of words from Lu Lao, Jiang Chen also nodded and said at least a little hesitantly: "Lu Lao, this is a military transport aircraft, if we want to buy it, I'm afraid it will be very difficult, I don't know if people sell it to our country, and then it's still a private company." The second one is that we are not allowed to use this kind of aircraft. This second, I have experience in taking this kind of transport plane, the cabin ride environment and comfort are really not good, didn't we sign an agreement, and immediately return to a business jet delivered to us, when the time comes, this business jet will be handed over to you to use directly, and it will be comfortable. ”
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Lu Lao waved his hand and said, "We must transport equipment and related things back and forth to work or experiment, how can a business jet do this kind of work." It's better to be a transport plane, it's more leathery, and even if you knock off a piece of paint, you won't feel distressed, which is as delicate as a business jet. As for what you said about being difficult to buy, I've thought about it above, and it's not a big problem. You know that there are already domestic airlines buying C130, but there is only one, and it is still an old civilian model. I also asked, Lao Mei really wants us to sell this transport plane, but because there is no money, we have not bought it, but developed and used Yunba. As for the above, you can rest assured, since we have been approved to develop and produce aircraft, will we not be allowed to buy this kind of aircraft? Besides, there are no weapons on the transport plane, so there is nothing to worry about. Besides, you're not just engaged in weapons, and it's not easy to get weapons, so it's not a big problem. And this aircraft is also relatively cheap, much cheaper than the fighter we bought, we can afford it. ”
Hearing Lu Lao's words, after looking at the expectant eyes of everyone, Jiang Chen had no choice but to nod and say, "In this way, then let's get one." It's just that I can't really guarantee whether it will be successful, and I still need to contact it to know. As long as I can, the money side is not a big problem, and I will try to fight for it. ”
"Well, that's fine. I know we're a bit of a tough guy with our old guys, but this is a great opportunity, and it's a shame to give up. Lu Lao nodded and smiled.
"Don't worry, if I can get one, I'll get one back. Jiang Chen replied with a smile.
"That's hard work for you. Lu Lao said with satisfaction: "A few days ago, we went to see the construction site of the aerodynamics research laboratory, where the progress is very smooth, and now the concrete pouring underground has been completed, and now we are seizing the time to carry out the construction of the above-ground building." In addition, we have also contacted the manufacturer, and the equipment manufacturing there is also going well, and it is expected that it will be delivered to the construction site next summer for equipment. ”
"It's progressing so fast?" Jiang Chen said in surprise.
Hehe, Liu Lao smiled: "At this time, everyone is worried about the order, can they not be active in such a big order at once." ”
Jiang Chen nodded when he heard this, "Hehe, that's good." But you have to do a good job in this quality, we not only have to be fast, but also the quality must be good. ”
"Don't worry, I'll send someone to guard there, and all their manufacturing processes are supervised by our people, and they are manufactured in strict accordance with our design requirements. And we have also signed the relevant contract, if there is any problem with the quality, then they don't want to get the final payment. Liu Lao replied with a smile.
"Money is a trivial matter, and I'm afraid of delaying our progress. Since you can rest assured, then I don't care, you can tell me what you need, I am your logistics housekeeper. Jiang Chen said to everyone.
"Haha, we don't dare to use your housekeeper, you've seen that housekeeper worth tens of billions of servants. Cui Lao joked with a smile.
"No matter how much money there is, I am also your junior, you scream, do I dare not come?" Jiang Chen said.
Lu Lao looked at his watch and then smiled at everyone: "Okay, I've been sitting for a day, and I'm a little hungry, let's go, let's go have some food, otherwise Xiao Zhang will sue again." What's the matter, you kid also accompany a few of us old guys to eat some coarse tea and light rice?"
Jiang Chen looked at Lu Lao's inquiring gaze and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll also come to check the food in the canteen." ”
"Haha, you, it just so happens that we still have some things to discuss with you, let's talk while eating, let's go!" Saying that, Lu Lao patted Jiang Chen on the shoulder and walked out quickly, while Jiang Chen also followed with the rest of the others.
