In the sky, he still did a simple circling flight as planned, although Lei Qiang wanted to do some high-end operations that he had flown on the South African multi-purpose program before, but in the end he held back and could only fly according to the plan.

"Do you think it's really possible for this aircraft to grab a large number of military fighter jets like the F-16?"

As people in the European and American aviation industry, these two are still very clear about the influence of the American-made F-16, Lane just shook his head, such a fire aircraft as the F-16 is completely caused by a combination of many reasons, of which political considerations account for a large part.

In a few minutes, the plane in the sky began to prepare for landing, which almost means that the first flight is almost finished, and there is not much suspense.

Lowering his head, he said: "I think it's difficult, not to mention whether this aircraft can be compared with the F-16 in terms of technology and supporting systems, the national influence alone is not a level at all, as far as my personal estimate is concerned, if this aircraft is sold to the outside world, the most affected should be the French military fighter export business." ”

The veteran driver in the industry really has a torch in his eyes, and he can see at a glance the threat of the No. 10 in the international military fighter market, but unfortunately they never expected that the No. 10 has no intention of being sold to the outside world at all, at least the interception type will definitely adhere to the policy of not exporting.

"But there is one thing we should be happy about, this aircraft uses the engine developed by our company, and in this regard, our company also has three generations of high-thrust military turbofan engine products, but we are quite expecting it to be a big hit, so as to prove that we are no worse than GM and Pratt & Whitney in all aspects." ”

He was really an engineer with a sense of belonging and pride in Rolls-Royce, and chose to support the No. 10 machine with the engine as the starting point.....

..

At the same time, as Lei Qiang piloted the plane failed to touch the ground for the first time, and waited until the second time it landed steadily, the scene was full of applause.

As for the first landing failure, we must find out the reason, whether it is a normal operation error or because of the aerodynamic problems caused by the new wing design, we should carefully analyze the results, fortunately, now that the plane has successfully landed, everyone can temporarily put the problem down, first happy, happy and then talk about it.

It was at this time that Comrade Wang walked next to Wang Zhengguo and spoke.

"China has begun to supply Qingcheng engines, and South Africa is still urging now, so my opinion is that it is best to let me bring two engines over this time, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to South Africa." ”

After all, it is the funds required for the Qingcheng engine project that South Africa has paid for, and now that the localization of the engine has been completed, it must not be able to turn the table and refuse to admit it immediately.

Thinking that now that the localization of the engine has been basically completed, all parts and components have been able to achieve domestic production, in terms of the number of engines produced, Rolls-Royce has not been able to interfere too much, and it is almost time to carry out the second step of operation.

"Yes, when you go to South Africa again this time, you will say that the engines have been delivered in small batches, and the first two engines will pass by sea, and there should be a waiting period of one to two months in between, which is no way. ”

A Qingcheng aero engine is also more than a ton, and the diameter is more than one meter, the length is close to five meters, if this kind of big guy is counted in the outer packaging, the size and weight are really not suitable for air transportation, the target is too big.

"As for the engine production line, you say that we are already working on the preparation and we may have to wait, and I think they can understand it. ”

The country has just completed the full set of production capacity, and the energy and funds spent in the middle are absolutely massive, not to mention the support of many upstream supporting manufacturers, otherwise it is absolutely impossible for this Qingcheng engine to be completed so quickly, and in terms of South Africa's industrial level.

Again, it's hard in a short period of time!

Of course, if the other party really wants to ruthlessly realize the domestic production of Qingcheng engine in South Africa, Wang Zhengguo can also be satisfied, anyway, all kinds of upstream supporting industrial production have to spend money to import from the Republic, who will not be able to get along with money this year.

However, he didn't expect that the next moment Lao Wang would bring the news that South Africa no longer plans to produce Qingcheng engines domestically, which is really .....

"I came back this time and had another problem, that is, to communicate about the production of Qingcheng engines, there was a final decision to give up domestic production in South Africa after getting the relevant upstream supporting demand information provided by you, they re-planned the source of the engine, and chose to import the finished engine produced by Southwest Motor, and South Africa only required a major repair line. ”

This sudden change of hexagram is really unexpected, South Africa does not want a production line, but changes to an overhaul line, and all engines are imported from the southwest engine, which is really a good way.

Wang Zhengguo roughly calculated, wait until about 92 years, the domestic No. 10 interceptor type plans to produce a regiment every year, considering that the combat unit still has engine backup needs, maybe the domestic Qingcheng engine demand in the first few years will be about 30 units, and then South Africa will purchase more than 10 engines, a total of 50 units per year, just enough to swallow the current production capacity.

As for the future when the Su-27 is fully domestically produced, it will be at least until about 2000, and ten years will pass in the middle, and who knows what it will develop in the end.

According to the current situation, I am afraid that the Northeast will choose to introduce an AL-31 engine production line, after all, even the Su-27 has been fully introduced, and the engine can still be abandoned?

The upper plane did not introduce the AL-31F production line, the reason is that there was already a Taihang engine project in the Northeast at that time, of course, I was unwilling to introduce the AL-31 engine, don't you know that the turbofan 6 was squeezed to death by Spey 202 in this way, and the Northeast will not jump twice in the same pit no matter how stupid it is.

But now the problem is that there is no Taihang engine project in the Northeast, and there is a mid-push turbofan under development, and the turbojet 6/7/13 series engines are about to be discontinued.

Take a step back, no matter how powerful the Qingcheng engine of Southwest Motivation is, then you are not a unit of aviation system, and now Southwest Motivation has been clearly classified under the command of United Power Energy Group Company, as a professional power energy machinery giant, and AVIC is completely two people.

Since it is not a family, it is definitely impossible for Qingcheng Engine to be handed over to the aero engine company under AVIC System for production, and of course, there is no need for AVIC to completely take care of the southwest motive.

As a supporting part of the Su-27 project, it is also natural to introduce the AL-31F engine, after all, Qingcheng and AL-31 are not at all a system in terms of weight, volume, and design standards, and it is obviously difficult to achieve interchangeability between the two.

In line with the cautious attitude of the original design modification, and also in order to provide the military with a high-performance fighter faster and more efficiently, the introduction of the AL-31L is the best way to go.

The same is the only way to maintain the engine production capacity of the Dawn Factory, otherwise what will this national key aero engine production base rely on to eat, and the national finance will raise people?

Even if the state finances to support people, as long as the engine production is stopped, it will only take a year or two at most, and the production team of the entire factory will be abolished.

On the one hand, it ensures that the AVIC system itself has the production capacity of three generations of high-thrust turbofans; at the same time, it can meet the military's requirements for the Su-27 series to achieve national production in the shortest possible time; and it can also smoothly continue the production capacity of the Liming Factory; and also avoid the situation of Qingcheng engine dominance.

In the face of such a plan to kill many birds with one stone, there will definitely not be any opposition from the military and government at that time, and even if there is, it will certainly not have much effect.

As for whether the Soviet Union will sell the production line, in fact, Maozi of the upper plane said in the mid-nineties that he could sell production-related technology, not to mention that the republic of the face has already pushed the turbofan, anyway, Maozi can't get stuck in the neck of the republic, but Maozi himself lived in the nineties......
