Since 625 has such a "penetrating" ability, Yang Hui will naturally not let go of such a good opportunity, and once again invited 625 Institute to participate in the DD3 monocrystalline turbine blade industrial production process development team.

Yang Hui didn't know what kind of changes the participation of the 625 Institute would bring to the whole project, he just tried his best and did not miss any possibility, which must be to achieve the large-scale production of monocrystalline turbine blades.

"That being the case, then please comrades of the fraternal units, this core organ is related to the future of our Southwest Science and Industry, and it is also related to everyone's future prospects, and it is also about whether we can come up with a real Chinese heart, since Premier Zhou began to raise the heart disease problem of our aviation industry, it has been 20 years, and this problem should be changed in our generation."

Yang Hui is leaving again, this time in the 624 Institute for a whole week, in the blink of an eye it is November 87, this time is the time for the major units to take stock of the year's performance, Yang Hui must go back to preside over the year-end inventory of 87 years of Southwest Science and Industry.

Of course, the year-end inventory is not the patent of Southwest Science and Industry, nor is it just the patent of the Republic, in the United States on the other side of the ocean, as the cornerstone of the global existence of the United States, the United States Navy is also taking stock of the year's harvest and lessons.

And this inventory will have a year of losses of various equipment, the most striking of which is the number of fighters lost by the US Navy in 87 years.

The spokesman of the US Navy on the stage made various reports to the old men on Capitol Hill: "This year, the Navy has lost a total of 24 carrier-based combat aircraft, of which the F/a-18A/B type has lost the most, with a total loss of 9 aircraft. followed by the loss of 14 F-4 fighters"

Hearing that the F18, a new aircraft that had only been in service for a few years, could lose so much in training, the old men on Capitol Hill were furious. Reliability was put in a very important position in the development of this aircraft, which is to avoid giving the whole F14 another aircraft with extremely low reliability.

But look at the Navy report this time. The loss of the F18 is more than twice the loss of the F14 aircraft, is this ignoring the demands of the Capitol Hill lords? Spending a lot of money to develop such an airplane, this is simply still possible!

"Smack!"

The first angry congressional lord could not sit still, and he was the first to express his displeasure, rudely interrupting the US Navy spokesman who was making a report, pointing to his nose and growling.

"What's going on? The loss of the F18 is more than double that of the F14, which is a great threat to the combat capability of the American Navy. Pilots in America are exceptionally valuable. The Navy must not allow valuable pilots which fly such dangerous warplanes that are against people. The ignorance of the right must be strictly investigated! ”

The old man in his fifties stood up at this time and questioned loudly, the roar echoed throughout the hall for a long time, and the spit sprayed far away, and an old man sitting in front of him could only helplessly wipe the saliva off the table.

The spokesman of the Navy has long been accustomed to this big battle, and he is specially here for the Navy to do this business, otherwise how could the US Navy keep such idlers. It is a sharp weapon to deal with such a critical moment.

I am accustomed to this loud roar, and it is natural to lower the sound of this angry roar when it reaches my ears, and then slowly answer the question, which is what a qualified speaker should have.

"Oh. This issue was investigated by the Navy and the Marine Corps, and from the final statistical conclusion, four of the nine aircraft lost were caused by the fire of the F404 engine. Two were mechanical failure issues, and two were mishandled by pilots. The last one was caused by a failed landing. ”

The reasons for the loss of 9 F18s are very clearly stated, so that these old men can understand what the situation of these planes is at a glance. Deftly turned the finger to the head of the aircraft producer.

The trick did work wonders, and the Capitol Hill lords obediently turned the finger on the F18 producers, and it turned into a civil war between the Capitol Hill lords, and the United States was dominated by the military-industrial complex, agricultural farmers, and oil tycoons.

Before the collapse of the Soviet Union, the military-industrial complex in American society occupied the absolute right to speak, and the discourse power of these military-industrial complexes was manifested through the seats of congressmen on Capitol Hill in the United States.

Naturally, because of their different supporter backgrounds, there is also a lot of gunsmoke among these members of Congress, and now I hear the Navy say that a large number of non-wartime losses of the F18 are caused by aircraft mechanical failures and engine fires, which can be regarded as having pigtails to catch.

Among all the causes of the loss, the engine fire damage was the most serious, and at this time, the congressmen supported by GM's old rival Pratt & Whitney were like being beaten with chicken blood, and their excitement was comparable to that of a fat. The beast of love.

"Since half of the Navy's losses were caused by a fire in GM's F404 engine, this suggests that the engine had a fatal design flaw that would not be tolerated for an expensive combat aircraft."

Standing up, he grabbed GM's pigtail and didn't let go.,A burst of squirting.,It seems that you want to continue to chase and fight.,If you can finish the battle and completely beat GM down, that's the best.。

However, the royal literati raised by General Motors also did not show weakness, and the General Purpose Councillor, who had survived all kinds of strong winds and waves, subconsciously had a counterattack plan, and immediately stood up with a sharp response.

"That's not right, which engine hasn't broken down at all, I don't think your Pratt & Whitney company's F100 engine is not necessarily very good, there are all kinds of operating spray parts in the past few years, because of the F100 bad engine and the loss of F15 aircraft, pilots I'm afraid there is also a reinforcement company!"

GM also knew that there was indeed a problem with the F404 engine this time, and one engine fire was accidental, and two or three times the fire was accidental. Fortunately, this guy was witty, chose to change the topic, and took out the Pratt & Whitney F100 and stirred it up again, and he can continue to sell it.

However, this statement is exactly what Pratt & Whitney wants: "The F100 engine was indeed unreliable in the early days, but it has long been perfectly solved now, and the Air Force has asked General Motors to develop an engine of the same level as the F100." Only competition can come up with the best products, and I think the Navy should expand the range of engine options, and need to develop a medium-thrust military engine by Pratt & Whitney. ”

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was shocked, this Pratt & Whitney is also very fierce, and it is necessary to prepare to develop a medium-thrust military engine, which must be a counterattack to the love of the universal horizontal knife back then! Even now, the budget is too tight, and the development of an aero engine requires nearly a billion dollars in spending, and Congress is also worried about money at this time.

With a "bang", GM's royal literati almost didn't shrink under the table, why are you so stupid, what F100 engine is you mentioning, isn't this not unpleasant for yourself?

If you can take this opportunity to win a mid-push engine project for Pratt & Whitney, you will definitely get a lot of honorarium, and you will be a little excited to think about it.

The Navy spokesman on the stage was naturally extremely happy, and after seeing the battle below, didn't this give the Navy a chance? The performance of the current F404 engine is not very good, it is all old things from the seventies, and the annoying fear of heights, it is time to take the opportunity to change to a better engine, anyway, it is the Capitol Hill gentlemen who paid for research and development.

Thinking about the 180-degree change in Pratt & Whitney's attitude towards the military after the F110 came out, I felt more and more that this was feasible, cleared my throat, and patted the podium.

"Peaceful, quiet! I think the development of a mid-thrust engine by Pratt & Whitney is a very good plan, the Navy needs to have competition, the United States needs to have competition, and the great people need to have competition! ”

As soon as this is said, GM is completely withered, this must not let Pratt & Whitney succeed, if this time let Pratt & Whitney avenge the F100 engine of the year, he will not have to mix in Capitol Hill, GM will definitely throw himself to the point where he doesn't know to eat ashes.

Hold on to the table and stand up immediately, continue your sacred mission, do not seek merit but seek no fault, as long as the sign of pushing the engine in the development of inclusive development is considered the greatest merit.

"No, no, there is no need to develop a mid-thrust engine now, the purchase share of F18 is already small, and foreign orders have not improved so far, and the F20 that adopts a single thrust engine has also been dismounted. In these aspects, it seems that the United States does not need a large number of medium-thrust engines, and it is completely unrealistic to develop a medium-thrust engine, Pratt & Whitney is completely developed for the sake of research and development, and they have not considered what the United States needs at all, so this plan is unrealistic. ”

The old fritter is the old fritter, and it looks like he is worried about the country and the people, and Ling Ran's speech said that in everyone's hearts, the United States really doesn't need to develop another mid-push engine.

Seeing that the congressional lords have loosened up and have not waited for Pratt & Whitney to continue to fight back, the US Navy has also seen that it is impossible to do anything, and now it can only take the opportunity to strive for the benefits of the US Navy as much as possible.

"However, it is an indisputable fact that the F404 engine has major design flaws, and General Motors has not shown any sincerity to solve the problem in the past six months, and the American Navy does not need such an engine supplier."

"No, no, GM has already started to inspect the F404 engine, and will definitely be able to investigate the cause of the accident within the specified time and come up with a rectification plan as soon as possible. (To be continued.) )
