"What plane?" Lu Haifan asked tentatively: "Is it Yun 11?" ”

The Y-11 is a light transport aircraft newly equipped by the Maritime Surveillance Corps of the State Oceanic Administration, which is not only equipped with a photoelectric platform, but also advanced surveillance airborne equipment such as infrared/ultraviolet scanners, imaging spectrometers and "fisheye" forensics windows, which can perform a variety of functions such as offshore support, sea rescue, maritime patrol, aerial photography and fish observation.

As for the latest Y-12 transport plane, he would have thought about it, but the Y-12 had just obtained its production license the year before last, and its annual production capacity was limited, so many units were lining up, so it would not be the turn of Runhua Industry to take the lead.

"It's not Yun-11." Chen Geng shook his head, what are you kidding, Yun-11 is not cheap.

"Isn't it Yun-11?" Lu Haifan was slightly disappointed in his heart, licked his lips, and asked again: "Could it be Yun-5?" ”

The Y-5 is also an aircraft commonly equipped by the Maritime Surveillance Bureau, the Fishery Administration Bureau of the Ministry of Agriculture, and other departments, and this aircraft that also uses cloth wing skin is a typical air tractor, although the flight speed is not fast, but this is just suitable for use at sea: the minimum stable flight speed of more than 100 kilometers can allow the crew on the plane to observe the sea surface at the lowest possible flight altitude, and the only problem with the Y-5 aircraft is that the space inside the plane is too small.

However, the small space on board may be a problem for the maritime surveillance and fishery administration bureaus, but for the customs anti-smuggling department, this is not a big problem; anyway, the anti-smuggling aircraft does not need to install inspection equipment on the plane, and it is great to install a video camera as investigation and evidence collection equipment, and the lower flight speed of the Y-5 is a huge and incomparable advantage for the anti-smuggling at sea: Even if it is a "big flight," the maximum speed at sea is less than 100 km/h, and the Y-5 still needs to move forward in the air on an S-shaped route. If Runhua Industry is really willing to donate 2 planes to Haizhou Customs, it will also be beautiful.

But Chen Geng's answer disappointed Lu Haifan again, and he shook his head again: "It's not Yun-5?" ”

It's not Yun-11, it's not Yun-5, what else can it be? The light in Lu Haifan's eyes gradually dimmed, but soon, thinking of another possibility, Lu Haifan's face flushed with excitement, and his voice trembled a little: "Could it be ...... Is it straight-9? ”

Is there any airplane better suited for customs to carry out anti-smuggling tasks than helicopters? No! Whether it is flight speed, or hovering, helicopter is the most suitable flight equipment for maritime anti-smuggling, sea rescue, the coast guard, maritime supervision, fishery administration bureau choose light transport aircraft as the carrier aircraft, not because the fixed-wing transport aircraft is more suitable, but because there is no helicopter that meets the requirements in China! Another reason is that helicopters are too expensive!

Helicopters are really too expensive, and the Y-11 fixed-wing transport plane with a load of 1.5 tons costs only a few million, and the purchase price of a Z-9 helicopter is as high as tens of millions, and the reason for this is that the Z-9 has just begun to be localized, and the vast majority of its parts and all core components have to be imported from France, and the price is naturally high.

If Runhua Industry is really willing to donate two planes to the customs...... No, even if it's a straight-9, the customs is also majestic, but Chen Geng is really willing to spend such a big capital?

Chen Daguan disappointed Lu Haifan again, and this time even Chen Geng himself touched his nose a little embarrassed: "Well, it's not straight-9......"

It's not Yun-11, it's not Yun-12, it's not straight-9, Lu Haifan really can't think of it: "That'...... What is it? ”

"It is the aircraft produced by our Runhua business." When he said this, Chen Geng's face was somewhat embarrassed.

"You Runhua Industry also produces airplanes?" Hearing this, Lu Haifan's jaw fell: Runhua Industry actually has an aircraft business? When was this? How did I not know?

"I said Lao Lu, what kind of expression do you have?" Looking at Lu Haifan's expression, Chen Geng was unhappy: "Our Runhua Industry = was just awarded the qualification for the import and export of aviation equipment by the state last year, and is the only enterprise that has obtained the qualification for the import and export of aviation equipment except for China Aviation Technology Corporation. ”

Lu Haifan was shocked again, he couldn't speak, he felt that he was more frightened today than he had been in the past year: Runhua Industry actually obtained the import and export business qualification of aviation equipment? !

As a customs officer, he doesn't know much about AVIC, but he knows that any central enterprise with a prefix is not easy to mess with, since AVIC is the only enterprise in the country that has obtained the qualification for the import and export of aviation equipment before Runhua Industry...... Lu Haifan suddenly felt a little creepy: Nima Chen Geng, you are snatching food from the tiger's mouth!

What's even more terrifying is that Chen Geng was not only not bitten to death by a tiger, but succeeded!

This still doesn't let people live?!

But Lu Haifan was puzzled that he had indeed not heard that Runhua Industry had produced airplanes, but had heard that they had produced an aero engine, piston type.

"Our Runhua Industry has really produced an airplane," facing Lu Haifan's shocked and puzzled gaze, Chen Geng nodded affirmatively: "It is equipped with the piston aero engine that we signed at the Frankfurt International Motor Show last year." ”

Runhua Industry has its own aero engine, although it is a piston type, Runhua Industry has also obtained the import and export qualification of aviation equipment, and it is the second in China, which shows that Runhua Industry has its own ambitions in the field of aviation industry, but Lu Haifan still has huge doubts: "Brother, when did you produce the aircraft?" When did it happen, how did I not know? ”

"Hehe...... "This time it was Chen Geng's turn to be a little embarrassed: "Our plane is undergoing a fuselage static test at the National Aircraft Strength Laboratory in Yanliang, Chang'an. ”

"......" Lu Haifan was speechless for a while, he finally understood what Chen Geng meant, and said helplessly for a long time: "Dare you to do the test at our customs?" ”

Chen Geng was a little weak-hearted, and said in a way that avoided the truth: "You just say if you want it, right?" ”

"Yes, why not?" Lu Haifan thought very openly, why didn't he give it for nothing? Even if you don't open it once after you get it, it's always a reputation, and you have an explanation to your superiors, why not? He said simply, "When can you give it to me?" ”

"About three or four months in the future."

“……”

Lu Haifan was speechless again.

"Let's talk about it first, this plane is not given for free," Chen Geng said: "We will help you carry out tasks such as anti-smuggling and patrolling at sea, but ......"

"Wait, wait," Lu Haifan suddenly realized a question: "I forgot to ask, what kind of plane is your plane?" It won't be like Nong-5, a small plane that spreads medicine on farmland, right? ”

"How is that possible?" Chen Geng said with a look of contempt: "Our Runhua Industry is so rich, if we want to get on it, we will need a big plane, and I will tell you that this plane is based on a carrier-based attack aircraft of the US military." ”

Lu Haifan was immediately shocked.

Carrier-based attack aircraft? When you hear it, it's an incomparably tall thing, and it's also a carrier-based attack aircraft of the U.S. military? That's even more amazing, Lu Haifan asked tremblingly: "Brother, you can get this one all of you...... That's not right," Comrade Lu Haifan, who was excited, suddenly realized a problem: "Didn't you just say that this plane is powered by a piston propeller engine?" ”

"yes, what's wrong with that?"

"Why is it no problem, it's a big problem," Lu Haifan shouted: "When did the US Navy have a piston propeller-powered carrier-based attack aircraft?" Everyone's got jet supersonic fighters......"

"That's because you're lonely and unheard," Chen Geng said with unceremonious disdain: "During the Vietnam War, the U.S. military used the A-1 'Sky Raider' carrier-based attack aircraft, and the piston propeller engine was used as the power, and it performed extremely well during the Vietnam War, and the Americans were filming a Vietnam War movie called "BAT-21", which included this aircraft. ”

Lu Haifan didn't know if what Chen Geng said was true, but he sensitively grasped the content of Chen Geng's words, and hurriedly asked: "Chen Dong, do you mean that you are copying this aircraft called A-1?" ”

"Of course!" Chen Geng's face pretended to be X: "And let me tell you, the low-altitude and low-speed performance of this aircraft is particularly good, it can take off directly with its own engine without a catapult on the aircraft carrier, and the most important thing is that the endurance is super long, and it can fly in the air for more than 10 hours......"

The A-1 "Sky Raider" attack plane was the only aircraft that the US military could take off from an aircraft carrier without relying on a catapult during the Vietnam War, and the most important reason why it could not rely on a catapult was that it could not use a catapult -- in the 40s, when the Americans decided to develop this aircraft, the US Navy's aircraft carriers were not yet equipped with steam catapults, and the most important thing was that the power-to-weight ratio of this aircraft was very good, and even if it was full of fuel and bombs, it could be powered by itself from the aircraft carrier.

Lu Haifan didn't know this, he was more shocked by Chen Geng's endurance of more than 10 hours: You think, a longer endurance time means more convenient monitoring, and when you need support, you can immediately fly to the destination to carry out maritime anti-smuggling missions without returning to the base to refuel, which is incomparable with the Y-5 and Y-11, which can only fly for three or four hours, let alone helicopters.

At this moment, Lu Haifan's heart moved. (To be continued.) )
