What is the concept of putting the MZ-2200 engine on a heavy gunship?

If the T-700 or BT-117 engines are compared to the F-119 and 31F engines in the turbofan engine, then the MZ-2200 should belong to the F-135 turbofan level, not that the turboshaft engine is very technical, but simply that the MZ-2200 engine far exceeds the average in terms of power.

And this kind of engine, which exceeds the international average level of the same kind in power, is not impossible to install heavy armed helicopters, at least the current army aviation is still quite interesting.

"A heavy gunship with a maximum total power of 4,400 horsepower sounds like a very exciting project, and if this engine is really good enough, I believe it can even play a very heavy role, and some of the things that have been debated by the army aviation before can be stopped."

In the speech, there is a mysterious look at the other end, which at least shows that the current Republic Army Aviation has not yet made up its mind about the main helicopter gunship, and listening to this, it seems that there is still a plan to use the excellent engine of the guòMZ-2200, and in turn determine the weight class of the aircraft, which should be unique in the Republic.

Similarly, another big man from Lu Airlines, who was sitting on the side, seemed to think of something with a smile: "I think this is very right, if your engine is really good enough, it can indeed play some unexpected roles." So, go ahead now! Mr. Chief Designer. ”

Standing on the stage, the breezy Chief Engineer Yin naturally still knows something about the Republic of China's armed helicopter project, and those who have carefully calculated will find that when it was still in the 90s, the Army Aviation allocated funds to support the research and development project of ultra-light armed reconnaissance, and gave the number Z-11, so calculate the Z-10 armed helicopter that was not officially equipped and put into service until after 2000, when did this start to be placed on the table of the leaders of the Army Airlines?

At least, this should be the 80s!

"Regarding the MZ-2200, there is no doubt that it will be a very good turboshaft engine, which can bring us to the domestic development in the field of turboshaft engines, as for whether it can also become the power of heavy armed helicopters. So I would like to tell you a real little story, we in 608 have a lot of cutting-edge design talents from the Ivchenko Design Bureau, and their arrival not only helped us to complete the development of the MS-4 turbofan engine, but also brought a lot of interesting news from the Ivchenko Design Bureau. ”

Counting, this should be the first time to publicly declare that 608 or United Aero Engines has the news that there are technicians from the Ivchenko Design Bureau, but it doesn't matter, anyway, now that the Soviet Union has collapsed, Xie Lianfa has begun a new round of poaching of the Ivchenko Design Bureau, which should also be the last round of poaching, and the dust will be settled in about a month or two.

In this way, it is not impossible for the army to announce this news, and now it depends on whether any of the big bosses in the army understand the deeper meaning after Chief Master Yin announces the news

And the facts show that although our army big brother is relatively earthy, but the army aviation is different, and it is also an army that can fly.

"Ivchenko? You're talking about the Evchenko Design Bureau of the former Soviet Union? Ukrainian Zaporozhye? The design bureau that designed the D-136 engine, the largest turboshaft engine in the world? ”

Finally, I waited for it, and someone was able to catch the news that was revealed, yes, it was quite cooperative, and 32 likes should be given.

"Indeed, it is this Ivchenko Design Bureau, with whom we have established a good relationship with United Aero-Engines for several years, so it is easy to see the Slavs in the engine design units of the United Aero-Engines, and they are involved in the design of two civilian engines of our company. In addition, we are contacting Ivchenko's D-136 engine design team to join our MZ-2200 engine project, which is said to have lost confidence in Ukraine after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and will remain in the sunny south of the republic forever. ”

Designer Yin simply and very well announced the news about the Ivchenko Design Bureau, although it is not very much and very detailed, but it has also caused a huge sensation in the army, which of the army, the air force, and the navy is not drooling over the Ivchenko Design Bureau, those good things are simply that

The excitement is no longer enough to express in words, and there is no other inner activity to describe except excitement. That's right, that's it!

And the initiator of this qiē stood on the stage at this time and looked at these various situations, and finally turned to nod and smile at the place where Yang Hui was.

Naturally, he nodded very affirmatively in response, for this time Chief Yin on the stage, Yang Hui recognized very much, this is indeed a good enough chief designer, not only has technology, has leadership ability, but also can control the field, it seems that the position of director of the 608 Institute will soon be handed over to its hands.

Seeing that the atmosphere of the scene was almost over, the wooden table top was suddenly and unobtrusively snapped lightly, and after two knocks, everyone's attention was pulled back again.

"Looking at the way everyone looks, you should know what the Ivchenko Design Bureau means, but back to the topic just now, I said that I want to tell a story, a story that happened to the second generation of the chief designer of the Ivchenko Design Bureau, Chief Architect Lotarev. During the time of Commander Lotarev, he designed the D-36 three-rotor engine, the first truly super-large bypass ratio turbofan engine in the Soviet Union, which was originally planned to be installed on the An-60 aircraft, but the design of this aircraft was not approved by the Soviet authorities. ”

Watching the military dignitaries in the audience follow their own stories and listen carefully is naturally a spontaneous sense of accomplishment and mission, which pushes them to continue to tell the story.

"In the Soviet Union at that time, it was actually the same as us, and the failure of the aircraft project would almost mean that the D-36 project was discontinued, but Chief Designer Lotarev was different, and he confidently said that the D-36 engine would be used again in the general design of the aircraft. Subsequently, the famous chief designer Yakovlev soon came to the design bureau and took the model of the engine to Moscow, which led to the development of the famous Yak-42 airliner by the Yak Design Bureau. The engine gave birth to the aircraft project, which was unique in the Soviet Union, and now, our MZ-2200 engine is also an excellent engine, and I believe that it can also give birth to a heavy helicopter gunship. ”

At this moment, the audience burst into warm applause, although the performance of the MZ-2200 engine has not been specifically mentioned and the design scheme has been conspired, but Chief Yin's wonderful speech has conquered everyone. (To be continued.) )
