The Navy wants to start the long-range fighter-bomber project again, but unfortunately the current army's funds are insufficient, so it can only focus on the Air Force first, after all, it has already completed half of the research and development process, and it is absolutely impossible to give up halfway.

However, in the field of gas turbines, the Navy has completely abandoned the domestic marine gas turbine project, even if China Shipbuilding, China Aviation and the Institute of Engineering Thermophysics have done their best, but the so-called Spey Aviation refueling still has no naval support.

The LM-2500 gas turbine from General Electric has excellent performance, reliable technology, and relatively reliable price.

The Navy is already a poor jingle, and in the face of the olive branch thrown by General Motors, and then looking back at the progress of the Spey Air refueling project, it is simply unbearable to look at it directly.

If you want to talk about the navy, people are actually benevolent enough, and it took a full five years to wait for this domestic power system, and the domestic developer also covers the top domestic scientific research units of AVIC, China Shipbuilding, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which is almost the best of China.

If any unit can make good progress in the past five years, the navy may be willing to continue to wait, but the problem is that there is no light at all!

After making up their minds to purchase LM-2500, CSSC and AVIC have no problem, and the navy does not show anything, and all aspects are benevolent and righteous, even if they find Liu Da who is in charge of the modernization of the national defense army, they can't help it.

After the whole project ended helplessly, only the Institute of Engineering Thermophysics was still more concerned about this aspect, and Wu Zhonghua, as the director of the institute, retired at this time.

In fact, the old man was really unconvinced at this time, obviously the British could change the SM-1 high-performance gas turbine on the basis of Spey, why did they repeatedly hit a wall when they came to the republic, this should definitely not be.

I think that when I was on a business trip in the UK, I was even known as the father of Spey engines, carrying such a famous name, but now I can't do anything about Spey engines, which is more uncomfortable for the old man who has been engaged in scientific research all his life?

As a result, Southwest Motivation Company has entered the sight of the master, as the forefront of the industrialization research of the domestic Spey engine family, the attractiveness of Southwest Motivation at this time is simply self-evident.

After leaving the Institute of Thermophysics, the old man went to the southwest motive alone, when the person in charge of the company saw the dusty old man, he didn't know what to do for a while, and quickly greeted people to the company, and the next moment he called Wang Zhengguo's office.

......

The motive for such a super bull to come to the southwest, no matter what the reason, Wang Zhengguo felt that he needed to communicate in person.

When I came to the southwest motive, the vice president of the company who had been waiting in the doorman communication room for a long time hurriedly greeted him.

"Chairman, now Director Wu has gone to the test bench, not long after he came in and sat down, he heard the sound of the engine starting in the test center, and asked us to take him over to have a look, but I can't persuade him!"

It can be seen that the sudden arrival of Mr. Wu Zhonghua this time has added some trouble to the company, after all, this old man is the director of the Institute of Thermophysics and a well-known industry expert in China, but he must not be neglected.

Wang Zhengguo was also quite puzzled, but he definitely had to make a calm gesture, nodded and rushed directly to the test center.

The equipment of Southwest Motor is partly inherited from 5701 and 5719 units, and some of them are purchased by the state to purchase Spey engine production line, and later after the Spey 202 domestic project was launched in Hongqi Factory, some special production and testing equipment were disassembled to Southwest Motor to inherit.

In addition to the above equipment that does not cost money, the remaining 50% of the production and testing equipment all have to spend money to be purchased and transferred abroad through the Spey project department, especially the equipment for various engine tests, which can definitely be regarded as the mainstream level in the eighties, and can fully meet all engine testing work except for high-altitude platform and flight platform test projects.

"Chairman Xiao Wang is here, just in time, I have something I want to discuss with you. As soon as he arrived at the test center, Mr. Wu Zhonghua turned around and saw Wang Zhengguo, without any superfluous words, he cut straight to the point.

And of course, this kind of action is the best, everyone is easy to talk about.

"No problem, if you have any ideas, just say that we can do it without violating the principles, we will be satisfied. ”

I like to watch young people like this, and the old man no longer grinds, and walks to a quieter place next to him.

"Spey's refueling plan has been stopped, the Navy can't wait, so it turned to the purchase of LM-2500 engines, and neither of the two units that invested in research in this area is willing to continue to insist on it, looking at the whole country, I'm afraid only you can have a reason to take over this project. ”

It turned out that the Southwest Motive should be the pick-up man, but this can be carefully considered.

Whether it is necessary to take over Spey's refueling plan, in Wang Zhengguo's current view, is actually very necessary, no matter what aspect, the southwest motive should take over.

"In the case of the gas turbine project, Southwest Motor did have plans in this regard, but we have no plans to enter the military marine gas turbine for the time being, and the water is too deep over there. At the moment, it seems that we have always wanted to enter the industrial gas turbine part of the ground use. ”

To be honest, now is really not a good time to enter the field of marine gas turbines, the Navy's shipbuilding plan has been compressed too badly, and the corresponding power system procurement can be imagined.

"We sent professionals to study the market, if we can develop a suitable Qingcheng Aviation refueling engine, the gas turbine market in the field oil field alone will need at least 20 units of installed capacity in the next ten years, and in the standby power generation market, there are about 50 units, if there are other orders, 100 units will be there after all." ”

The gas turbine power generation market is very strange, except for the specially designed heavy-duty industrial gas generators, the aeroderivative gas turbine is less powerful and more popular in the civilian market, and the shipment rate is higher, at least until 2000.

"We intend to greatly reduce the working load and air flow on the basis of Qingcheng, so as to improve the reliability and life of the unit, and it is expected that the power of this gas turbine will be between 8-9M, which is enough to ensure that the comprehensive cost of this type of gas turbine reaches the international mainstream level. ”

Changing the high-thrust engine of Qingcheng to a low-power gas turbine may be able to do it with the southwest motive, but this cannot be regarded as a mistake, after all, there is a market demand.
