Chen Geng was silent for a while. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The Russian strongman said that it is better to protest a thousand times and ten thousand times than to flap the wings of a strategic bomber. Even if the TU-95, which is ridiculed as "taking off from the Far East and being heard by the United States," the strategic bomber will always be the most effective and powerful strategic deterrent force of a country.

From this point of view, some people are so short-sighted that they are not even worthy of the four words "rat-eyed," and they have never thought about how serious the consequences of the dismounting of the H-8 bomber will be: This has directly led to the fact that until the second decade of the 21 st century, there is no replacement for the H-6 in the Air Force of the Republic!

Not only has it seriously affected the development of the long-range combat capability of the Chinese Air Force, but the most fatal thing is that when there is an incident in a certain region and our military strength is needed to demonstrate its presence in the region, the influence and deterrence of the Air Force and naval aviation in the region are seriously insufficient! If the H-8, which has a longer range and a larger bomb load, is not dismounted, we will have much more room to deal with some thorny issues.

The dismount of the H-8 was, to put it mildly, a serious underestimation by the decision-makers of the significance and impact of the H-8, a quasi-strategic-class large bomber. To put it mildly, we can speculate at the worst of those who dismounted the -10 and the H-8 in succession.

"Anyway, that was more than 10 years ago, wasn't it?"

Taking a deep breath to adjust his mood, Chen Geng said: "We should be optimistic, after all, more than 10 years have passed, the form of national defense faced by our country, and the relationship with Western countries are completely different from more than 10 years ago. ”

Hearing Chen Geng's words, Mao Donghai's expression moved slightly: Chen Geng's words are difficult to say anything else, but it is true that there have been tremendous changes in the form of national defense that we are facing, and now the entire West is extremely hostile to us, and speaking of which, it is really an excellent opportunity to restart the H-8 bomber project -- the national defense needs are placed here.

Looking at the subtle changes in Mao Donghai's expression, Chen Geng knew that what he had just said had reached his heart, and he hurriedly made persistent efforts: "Under the current brand-new form of national defense, the naval aviation units and air force units have a relatively urgent need for a large bomber with a large bomb load and a long range, otherwise they would not have been able to propose a method to increase the range and bomb load of the H-6 by replacing the engine for the H-6. It is also in the interests of the military, and as long as we convince the leadership of the Air Force and Naval Aviation units, there should be no problem in restarting the H-8 project. ”

"That's right." Mao Donghai nodded slowly.

This is the first time he has implicitly expressed his attitude.

Chen Geng's heart was relieved, and he said with a smile: "On the other hand, I think that the H-8 is much easier to realize the project than in the 70s, and we can completely use some new materials, new processes, and new technologies on the MPC-75 to the H-8 -- Speaking of this, I suddenly have an idea, Mr. Mao, please help me refer to it in detail: After all, the original old H-8 was a plan formulated based on the industrial, scientific, technological, and material levels of our country in the 60s and 70s. 8. Some of the indicators are revised? ”

Chen Geng's words are not said casually, don't say anything else, just talk about data link technology and bus technology, in the 60s, we have never heard of what is called data link, what is called bus, but after seeing the 1553B data bus for the improvement of aircraft combat effectiveness, the new bomber failed not to use the data bus?

As for the heavy use of composite materials in the fuselage, it was unheard of in the sixties and seventies, but now, the use of composite materials in aircraft to reduce weight has become the consensus of the global aviation industry.

"Of course," Mao Donghai agreed with Chen Geng's words, and said without thinking: "If the H-8 can really be restarted, it will definitely have to revise some indicators." ”

Catching Mao Donghai's words, Chen Geng immediately asked: "Then Xifei is in favor of restarting the H-8 bomber research and development plan, right?" ”

"This ......"

When it came time to express his position, Mao Donghai hesitated, and from his heart, of course he hoped to restart the research and development of the H-8 bomber, but is it appropriate to make a statement now?

Looking at the hesitant Mao Donghai, Chen Geng frowned, he said so much, for so long, his mouth was dry, Mao Donghai was still hesitating, even if he knew that this was the consistent urine of the leaders of state-owned enterprises, but he couldn't help it: "Mr. Mao, it is we who contribute the engine for this project, and we are the one who pays for it, even if the country decides not to equip this aircraft after the project is launched, it is we who lose all our money in the end. The technology of materials can also consolidate Xifei's position in the minds of the central leaders, so what are you afraid of? ”

Provoked by Chen Geng, Mao Donghai finally couldn't hold back anymore, stomped his feet and said loudly: "Don't provoke me, I'll tell you the truth, of course Xifei wants to see the H-8 fly into the sky again, if you can convince the heads of the air force and navy to support you and let them help us speak, Xifei will agree to restart the H-8 bomber project......

"What do you want to do?" Chen Geng scoffed at Mao Donghai's words, and let you take advantage of all the cheapness? "Mr. Mao, to make it clear, Runhua Industry has provided the most valuable funds for the early development, is it possible that what you Xifei is ready to do is to put your hands in your sleeves and wait for us Runhua Industry to do all the preparations before the official start of the project? Let me ask, do you think that's appropriate? ”

Mao Donghai's face was red and white: Of course, this is not appropriate. Squeaked twice: "That...... How do you say? ”

"Simple! I think the Air Force and Navy definitely want to restart the H-8 bomber project, and what we have to do is to pull the Navy and Air Force together to persuade the authorities to accept our plan. ”

"What's the plan?"

"With the plan for the joint research and development of the H-8 by Xifei and Runhua Industry, doesn't the state have no money and no way to start the H-8 bomber research and development plan? Runhua Industry can provide early development funds, these are no problem," Chen Geng looked at Mao Donghai and said word by word: "But Runhua Industry has no reason to spend money in vain, and the plan must clarify the rights, obligations, and shares of Runhua Industry in this cooperation project." In addition, since this project is our self-funded project, how will Runhua Industrial's investment be recovered after the successful development of the H-8 bomber in the future? This plan must be clearly stated. ”

Runhua Industry can contribute money and is willing to pay, but it does not mean that Runhua Industry is a fool. This is what Chen Geng means.

Of course, Mao Donghai hopes that Runhua Industry will do everything well, and Xifei will only need to sit back and enjoy its achievements, but he knows better that this is impossible, it is one thing for Runhua Industry to be rich, but being rich does not mean that he is a fool, in the final analysis, it is still the same sentence: there is no good thing in this world that only takes advantage of advantages and does not suffer losses.

After bowing his head and pondering for a while, Mao Donghai nodded and said: "If Runhua is willing to provide early development funds, the naval aviation unit and the air force are willing to accept a subsonic bomber with a large range and large bomb load, and Xifei will definitely do its best for this project, and this consciousness is still there." ”

Chen Geng immediately stretched out his hand: "So, a word is a certainty?" ”

"It's a deal."

――――――――――――――――

Finally persuaded Xifei, Chen Geng did not dare to slack off, and immediately rushed to the capital to explain the situation to Li Jianguo.

After listening to Chen Geng's briefing, Li Jianguo's eyes were about to pop out: "I just asked you to find a way to try to see if you can increase the combat effectiveness of the H-6, but you kid actually even turned the H-8 out of the pile of old papers for Lao Tzu?" ”

Chen Geng said with a hippie smile: "Old leader, I think so, after all, the H-6 is only the foundation of the Tu-16, as a medium-sized bomber, the foundation is limited, even if you exert great effort, but the foundation of the H-6 is there, congenital deficiencies, and upgrading is also half the effort, but the H-8 is different, first of all, the old H-8 is a 'quasi' strategic-class large bomber, if we apply some new materials, new technologies, and new processes on the basis of the old H-8, I believe that the new H-8 will be in the range, In terms of bomb load, it is still possible to achieve the capability of 80 to 90 percent of the B-52 and TU-95 subsonic strategic bombers; if they are used in conjunction with air tankers, we can completely use the H-8 as a strategic bomber, except that the bomb load is slightly inferior.

The most important point is that this project does not need the state to pay, after the prototype comes out, if everyone thinks this aircraft is good, then pay for it, if you are not satisfied, then there is no need to say anything, all the risks are borne by our Runhua Industry......"

"Sounds good, but you kid has such a good heart?" Li Jianguo looked at Chen Geng suspiciously.

Although he was also very impressed by Chen Geng's suggestion, for the naval aviation unit, the H-8 is definitely a better choice than the H-6, but he also knows that this kid is a master who cannot afford to make a profit, and what is his idea in mind when he is so actively promoting the restart of the H-8 bomber's research and development program?
