If it weren't for this stubble, Chen Xu really couldn't think of it, in fact, there were Mi-6 heavy transport helicopters in China. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Just because this helicopter is not very suitable for China's climate and environment, and the size of the aircraft is comparable to the Boeing 737, the body is too large, it is very difficult to operate, and the training of part-time Chinese Air Force pilots is also insufficient, and few pilots dare to fly it.

And those who dared to go up and drive it fell 3 planes in a short period of time, so they were basically grounded. Because the efficiency of use is too low, it flies less in the air, so that few people know that there are such heavy helicopters in the country.

After the introduction of the Mi-6, China also thought about imitating it, but the R&D technology was too backward, and the reverse R&D plan could only end in failure.

In terms of heavy helicopters or the strongest technology of the Soviets, even the US imperialism is a little bit worse.

This strength does not refer to technology, helicopter technology must be higher in the US imperialists, and the wisdom of the Soviet designers lies in the fact that they can use simple materials and technologies to build the best aircraft.

The Soviet Union was a real country of steel steampunk, and heavy industry was very developed, especially the military industry, which was self-contained. Under the planned economic system, the Soviets turned the whole country into an assembly line, and a small part was produced in a special factory, eliminating the intermediate links and the output was very large, so the production price of parts was extremely cheap.

Mass-produced helicopters such as the Mi-6 are examples of low cost, with more than 800 units produced. It was developed by the Soviets for the transportation of materials in the cold and tundra of the Far East, after all, in that kind of uninhabited place for thousands of miles, air transportation is much cheaper than building a road, and this kind of heavy transport aircraft has the value of existence.

The most important thing is that this heavy transport aircraft has a huge internal space, and it is no problem to cram a hundred soldiers at a time, making it a very good tool for fast maneuvering troop transport. Secondly, it can also be changed to a tanker, the steel torrent of the Soviets can only be propelled by drinking oil, and the transportation of logistics fuel will become a problem after it is launched for hundreds of kilometers, and if there are Mi-6 and later Mi-26 helicopters, a large amount of oil can be quickly transported by air to refuel the tank troops, and the engine of the steel torrent can be started again to push Europe.

This kind of cheap and large-scale equipment aircraft determines that this helicopter can enter the ranks of first-class helicopters. The greatest value of a helicopter lies in its use, if an aircraft costs tens of millions of dollars, even if it can fly into space with automatic driving, it does not have much use value, because it is too expensive for no one to afford to use, and it cannot be mass-produced and promoted.

Of course, cheap planes naturally have no texture at all, and Lao Maozi's weapon design philosophy is that the leather can be used, and the rest is not considered. So after the collapse of the Soviet Union, we can see a large number of Mi-26s being thrown in the weeds at will, discarded in batches, quite heart-wrenching.

In fact, don't look at the number of them, but they are all bargains, and too expensive things for the Soviet army could not have produced as many as 800 in one go.

It's just that Chanel bags and cheap bags in supermarkets are a concept, and they seem to be surprisingly large but they are not expensive, and hundreds of Santanas are placed there, which are more expensive than these helicopters.

Even if the Soviet Union collapses in the future, Chen Xu is not very willing to get them, China is short of oil and the Soviet Union is not the same concept as the world's largest oil producer, so this kind of oil tiger does not conform to China's national conditions, and it is troublesome to buy them back for maintenance, and it is easy to have accidents if they are not adapted to water and soil, and the loss of people who fall to death is even greater.

What's more, the production line of the Chinook helicopter of the US imperialist family has been introduced in China, and there is no need for the Mi-6 to reinvest again, and it will take up space. However, the more massive Mi-26 can be introduced, after all, such a large load of a giant helicopter must be useful, half a penny is difficult to defeat the hero, and it is always right to prepare.

"No, no, no! We have already thought of the method you came up with, and we have also inspected the Mi-6 helicopters of the Air Force, and found that all of them lack maintenance, so they are placed in the open apron, and some of them have not been started for more than half a year, and the paint on the outside has fallen off. Moreover, since the introduction of this helicopter, the Air Force has fallen three times, and the accident rate is extremely high. If you use it to hoist the F14 in a crash, the loss will be great, you must know that the control of the Mi-6 is very rare, and the joystick can only pull it with all its might, and this kind of strength is extremely physically demanding. So in any case, it can't be used to lift expensive third-generation fighters, or it's safer to use a gantry crane. Tang Yi waved his hand again and again, he was apprehensive about the pilots of the Air Force who were unskilled due to lack of training during the big convulsions, these fighters belonged to the Navy, and the Air Force would not lose money if they were broken.

"The Americans are really, so many planes have been sent, and there is still a lack of such a transport helicopter? Will you die if you put the aircraft carrier on it and send it over together! If we don't say that they won't give it, the Americans are so urinating, and they are stingy in their bones. Chen Xu got out of the ground of the plane, slapped his palms clean, and then said: "Let this matter go for a while, this time I will need a few such lifting and transport helicopters to come back on the way to the United States." It suddenly occurred to me that such a helicopter is very good, and I can introduce production technology, not only for the military, but also for civilian purposes in the future. ”

Chen Xu remembered that the country would be rich in the future, and it would definitely be necessary to build infrastructure construction, build railways and build high-voltage power lines between the mountains and hills in the south, all of which were repaired by manpower, especially in Tibet, where there are huge mountains everywhere.

What's more, it is used for forest fire fighting, disaster area sports construction machinery, etc., which can be hoisted up by a tank weighing thirty or fifty tons, and there is no problem at all in transporting large excavators. Hanging a personnel pod can also quickly transport soldiers into a war zone or disaster area.

If it can produce its own helicopters with a large capacity such as the Sikorsky S-64, it will have a great future in China. In particular, the structure of this kind of aircraft is simple, with a nose and a girder, and the fuselage is particularly material-saving, and the cost is not expensive. Cheap stuff is definitely selling well.

The military buys dozens or hundreds of planes, and the civilian sector buys hundreds more, and if two or three hundred planes are sold, the profit margin is very large, and it is worth opening a production line to build it.

In fact, China has a vast land area and a complex geomorphological environment, with the roof of the world, mountains and hills, and ocean plains, and is the country that needs helicopters the most, with a shortage of up to 20,000 helicopters. The United States is only a little smaller than China, with 2,000 police helicopters, 5,000 military helicopters, and 12,000 civilian helicopters.

Chen Xu is a businessman, he is very patriotic but also wants to do business, and he finds that there is no reason to let go of the way to make money, and he can eat most of the huge domestic helicopter market.

"Then thank you so much, I'll report this to the commander of the Navy when I go back, and we won't be in a hurry to build a gantry crane here." Hearing that Chen Xuken went to negotiate with the US military to transport helicopters, Tang Yi rubbed his hands happily, if the problem of transporting these planes could be solved, it would really be a great help

Chen Xu pointed to the helicopters on the other side of the hangar and said: "These Tomcat fighters are all wrapped in oilcloth and there is nothing to see, let's go over and take a look at those helicopters, we can feel their huge size from so far away, how do they feel bigger than my Chinook!" ”

"That's the Americans' CH53 Sea Stallion heavy transport helicopter, the core equipment of the U.S. Navy's amphibious combat mission." Tang Yi put his hand on the pergola, stood on tiptoe to look at the distance, and opened his mouth to introduce.

"That's when we talk about heavy helicopters, don't you have them! It's a pity that the load is a little smaller, I remember that this helicopter only weighs 16 tons at most, and the Tomcat fighter is more than two tons heavier than this, and I am afraid that it will not be able to lift it. Chen Xu's eyes lit up, and he walked to the other end of the hangar from the empty passage between the planes, not forgetting to pat these F14 Tomcat fighters along the way.

In the near future, they will take on the responsibility of the country's coastal defense, although the number of fifty is smaller, but the country has already introduced aircraft production lines. In a few years, we will be able to produce a steady stream of these advanced third-generation air superiority fighters, and after we deploy two or three hundred planes of this type at coastal airfields, even the US imperialists will have to be wary of us.

Passing by a huge opening in the hangar, I saw the wide sea outside, this opening is the location of the lift, when the lift falls inside, you can push the planes in the hangar up, and then send it to the deck. Standing in the opening position and looking at the sea below, Chen Xu's head was dizzy because he was too tall, and he hurriedly took a few steps back to feel more comfortable.

"Xiao Wu, look, there are some traces of rust on the hull outside!" The eldest brother was bold, standing directly on the edge with his hands in his trouser pockets, and leaned out to see the hull outside the aircraft carrier.

"In the final analysis, this aircraft carrier uses shipbuilding technology from the fifties, and the special steel used is not the best in the first place. Now there are special steels with a yield of 800 megapascals, which are more than enough to build aircraft carriers. However, the Americans will definitely not sell it to us, and as for the development of special steel by the Soviets, it is also very powerful, but it is even more impossible if we have a bad relationship with us. In addition, the rust of the aircraft carrier's shell is estimated to be due to the corrosion of the anti-rust coating by seawater, which does not have much impact on the hull itself. Chen Xu grabbed the edge of the open wall, and sure enough, he saw some mottled rust marks on the hull outside, although there were not many, it also affected the appearance.

"It's a pity that we don't have the production capacity of special steel, and when we complete the mapping of this aircraft carrier in the future, it will only be a rice cook, and there are shipbuilding drawings but no shipbuilding steel." Tang Yi came over and pulled Chen Weiguo behind, the eldest brother was too careless, it was windy in this harbor, and if he fell from such a high place, his internal organs would have to be broken, even if there was sea water below.

"Staff Officer Tang can rest assured that not only can we build 800 megapascals of special steel, but also 1,000 megapascals of special steel, and if we want to build an aircraft carrier, as long as the money is in place, we can start construction immediately, don't worry about the problem of materials. As long as Baosteel is built, we will be able to produce special steel immediately. Chen Xu waved his hand and said proudly.

"We have such excellent special steel? How come I haven't heard of it in the Navy for so many years! Tang Yi touched his head and asked anxiously. As a navy person, military special steel must be very sensitive, if the country has such a good special steel, all kinds of warships can be built. It is precisely because there is no good steel that the domestic warships have even had an accident of cracking the hull under the impact of the waves, which turned the hair of the chief designer gray. Welding alone cannot fundamentally solve the problem, and if there is a strong and good steel, such a problem will naturally not occur.

"Staff Officer Tang, if you ask, he won't say that this guy has a basket of secrets in his mysterious stomach, and if he says it, it will definitely exist. You just have to wait for Baosteel to be built, and you can naturally see this kind of steel, and with the real thing is better than all words, it makes no sense to say anything now. Chen Weiguo patted Tang Yi on the shoulder, then hooked his shoulder, and said hurriedly: "Let's not worry about special steel, you help me lift the tarp covering the helicopter, and let us go to the helicopter to take a look." We've been on this aircraft carrier for so long, and we haven't seen anything really good! (To be continued.) )
