Chen Xu pit Bell Straight Aircraft Company and asked them to sign a VAM agreement of 800 million US dollars, purely to breathe a sigh of relief. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Now that the Americans want more V22 Osprey technology, and Chen Xu occupies the initiative in the negotiations, then they will have to offset the industrial production system of aero engines.

Careful calculation, it is equivalent to Chen Xu paying the technical drawings of the V22 Osprey and 800 million US dollars to buy a set of aero engine research and production capacity.

To be honest, this business is doing quite at a loss!

Although the V22 was stolen by Chen Xu from the home of the American imperialists, it was an aircraft thirty years later, and there is nothing to say about the advanced technology. The United States' acquisition of Osprey technology 30 years ahead of schedule is a comprehensive upgrade of the country's existing aircraft industry, which can save Americans many detours.

For example, the LCD display in the Osprey cockpit, touch screen technology, head-up display, and helmet integrated display system. Not to mention the military, if these technologies are put into civilian use, they are extremely profitable.

For example, a large-screen monitor with a touch screen is not a touch-screen computer and a touch-screen mobile phone?

In this era, personal communication devices have just been invented, big brothers are bulkier than bricks, and short and powerful touchscreen phones are just science fiction concepts in fiction.

Few people would have guessed that touch-screen mobile phones and touch-screen computers would become one of the most important electronic industries in the future, especially since touch-screen mobile phones have become the most important organ in modern people's bodies, and they can't do without them every minute. You cut off one of his kidneys and you may not notice it for a long time, take his phone for a few minutes and feel uncomfortable, and then the person will become very irritable, and so on.

So when he signed the technology call agreement, Chen Xu had to limit the use of these technologies to military use, and if these technologies were devolved to civilian use, then the American companies involved in the case would be prosecuted by the Chinese side.

It's just that only God knows how much of a role these restrictions can make.

The scientific and technological level of US imperialism has far surpassed that of China, and now Chen Xu has handed over the aircraft technology that is ahead of the times, which is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire and making the aircraft industry of US imperialism jump to a higher level again.

But he was helpless, Chen Xu could only bet that China's future development speed would be faster than that of the US imperialists, and that he would be able to overtake the US imperialists in a corner, and finally go to victory.

In this technology exchange, the United States imperialism has obtained aircraft technology that is ahead of the times, while China has obtained a modern aero engine R&D and manufacturing system.

Aero engine is a very technology-intensive and cutting-edge industry, which requires a country's thousands of industrial fields to reach the top level, and it is possible to build it after breaking through the barrier of science and technology, which is a manifestation of the comprehensive industrial strength of the whole country.

To take the most obvious example, the aero engine must burn oil to start! However, the level of petrochemical refining in China is not good, the purity of aviation fuel is not comparable to that of the United States, and people's aviation fuel is pure water, and our aviation fuel is almost yellow mud water.

The quality of this oil is directly related to the range of the fighter, and the pure oil burns with high efficiency, which can make the engine work more stable and fly farther. Not to mention the low efficiency of aviation fuel, it burns quickly, and the same tank of fuel flies out a lot less than others.

Not to mention aviation fuel, even the gasoline we use daily contains a lot of impurities, which is not as easy to use as the American imperialists.

Fortunately, we have a heavy industry foundation under Grandpa Mao's tireless efforts for decades, and the Chinese family has finally changed from an agricultural country to a modern industrial country, with a perfect engine manufacturing system on paper.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the "turbofan 5" aero engine imported by military enterprises from the Soviet Union, although it was only the first generation of aero engines and was very backward in technology, let China's military industry know what aviation engine is, and opened its eyes.

Subsequently, according to the technical information provided by the Soviet Union, the 'Turbojet-6' supersonic aircraft engine was imitated, and then the "Turbojet-7" and "Turbojet-8" were domestically produced.

The power system of the J-7 and J-8, which military fans love and hate, uses the turbojet 7, and the engine of the H-6 is the turbojet 8. Many people think that China does not have aero engines, but in fact this is a misunderstanding, and the existence of these two types of aviation engines is the most obvious manifestation of China's aviation industry.

But this is only a production and manufacturing, the Soviet Union is very cunning, and they do not want China to have the ability to develop aero engines. Therefore, it only told us the production and manufacturing process of the engine, but did not tell us the design ideas and methods of the engine, that is to say, China only has a simple replication ability, and it is not possible to evolve and study a more advanced engine.

Without R&D capabilities, China has struggled to make progress on the road of manufacturing aero engines, even if it is difficult to digest and absorb the design ideas and ready-made technologies of Soviet engines, and it has repeatedly suffered setbacks in upgrading and improving old engine models in the Soviet Union.

It's hard to develop a new engine on your own.

Because there is no research and development ability, the engine technology imported from the Soviet Union has been very backward, the Chinese had to in the early 80s, taking advantage of the strategic opportunity period of the honeymoon between China and the United States, once again spent a huge amount of money from the United Kingdom to introduce the "Spey" aero engine, although at the beginning can only import all the parts from the United Kingdom to assemble in China, and barely achieve domestic production in assembly, but it is also a great achievement.

China's scientific research personnel have absorbed the technical data left by the Soviet Union, and then introduced the Spey technology, so that China's scientific research personnel have figured out the internal laws in the field of aviation industry, and have trained a large number of technical personnel, and have preliminary research and development capabilities.

A country's aviation industry must have a core aircraft! The so-called core engine is the collective name of Hanfa's compressor, combustion chamber and high-pressure turbine. As long as we have the research and development capabilities of these three things, we can derive and develop civil aviation engines, marine gas turbines, and gas turbines for thermal power stations on this basis.

Basically, with a core aircraft, the country's aviation industry is established.

This is also the reason why Chen Xu is willing to exchange the V22 Osprey for the F110 industrial chain, he is going to the core machine!

Chen Xu wanted more than a simple production line, he wanted the Americans to hand over the F110 aero engine, from the research and development process, experimental data, material processing, etc. Chen Xu wants to completely transform China's aviation power industry system from R&D to manufacturing by obtaining this industrial production line.

Of course, it is impossible for an existence like the US imperialists to give the real thing, and all they give is information on paper. That is to say, Meidi will tell us how a certain part is designed, what the idea is, how to choose the material, what machine to use and how to process it, and so on.

Even if it is just a few drawings, the opposition forces in the United States are unwilling to do so, and these people are very likely to get in the way.

Therefore, Chen Xu asked the handover personnel to strictly review all the drawings, especially the key design data of the core machine, and not a single number on the drawings can be wrong. R&D and manufacturing of aero engines is to do the dojo in the shell of the snail lion, which is very complex and fine, and the transparent blades must be maintained at tens of thousands of revolutions per minute at a high temperature of thousands of degrees.

The Americans only need to change a small amount of data on the drawings, which may lead to the fact that China will never be able to make this engine, and it will have to go through a lot of tests before the problem can be discovered.

The most uncomfortable thing is that the Americans are manipulating the drawings, and the Chinese side needs to test and error to find the problem because of its lack of design experience in the aviation engine. If Chen Xu made changes to the technical drawings of the Osprey, the United States, because of its rich experience in building aircraft, could quickly discover the problem and then correct the mistake.

This is the technical asymmetry, people can play you to death with a little trick or foot, and you are helpless against him.

The reason why Chen Xu chose F110 was after repeated consideration, in fact, the United States imperialist now only has two third-generation high-thrust engines:

One is the world's first high-thrust engine F100 produced by Pratt & Whitney, which is the power source of the F15. However, because of the excessive pursuit of thrust-to-weight ratio, Pratt & Whitney used too much advanced technology on this engine, resulting in unstable engine performance and endless failures, which caused the F15 to be grounded for three days and two ends, and won the nickname of the queen of the hangar.

But at that time, the U.S. Air Force had no other choice, and at that time the F100 was the only third-generation high-thrust military engine, even if there were many problems, it had to continue to be used.

In fact, Chen Xu can choose F100, but the foundation of the Chinese engine industry is too thin, if the introduction of this kind of aviation engine with many problems, I am afraid it will take at least 20 years to improve it perfectly. This is tantamount to asking for trouble for China, which urgently needs advanced aero engines to fill the technological gap.

The remaining one is General Electric's F110 high-thrust turbofan engine, which is an upgraded and developed from the F101.

Originally, the F101 was used as a power source for the B-1A, the latest high-altitude and high-speed strategic bomber developed by the US military, to replace the old B52 bomber.

So the Pentagon decisively let the B-1A dismount, and the F101 lost its installed object, and this engine was used for bombers, and it was not considered to install it on fighters at all. General Electric was so anxious that the aero engine it had worked hard to develop for more than ten years was useless and was in danger of being abandoned.

But General Electric did not give up, but raised its own money to upgrade the F101, until 1976, the F101X test was successful in full compliance with the technical indicators of the third-generation fighter, and the performance proved to be very stable after the flight test on the F16, and the United States had a second high-thrust military engine that could be used for fighter power.

The U.S. Air Force, which was tossed by the Pratt & Whitney F100, burst into tears and gave the F101 engine the official number F110, and immediately decided to replace the F16 with this stable heart.

This is also the main reason why Chen Xu chose F110, because F110 was developed on the basis of F101 as the core machine.

With the F101 is equivalent to having the engine of the bomber, although the B-1A was dismounted, but the United States imperialist soon developed the famous B-1B bomber on the basis of this bomber, and the engine it uses is still the F101. (To be continued.) )
