"You kid, what's the fuss?" Looking at Chen Geng, who was looking at him stupidly, Li Jianguo seemed to be extremely happy: "Surprised to see me? ”

"Yes," Chen Geng nodded stupidly, he didn't expect that he would be able to meet Li Jianguo here, but the next moment, he said in surprise: "Old leader, are you transferred to the navy?" ”

Chen Geng was personally selected by Li Jianguo to enter the Ministry of National Defense when he graduated from Huaqing, and was the first leader after Chen Geng's work, and gave Chen Geng a lot of guidance in his work, even after Chen Geng arrived in the East China Military Region, he also helped Chen Geng many times, but Chen Geng never expected that he would meet Li Jianguo in the Navy Equipment Technology Department.

"Well, it didn't take long for me to be transferred," Li Jianguo nodded, looking at Chen Geng's gaze and was very pleased: "Good boy, I know that Lao Tzu didn't misunderstand you at the beginning, and your kid is now the number one person, Huo ...... Lieutenant Colonel? Yes, yes, I'm just a platoon leader at your age. ”

"How can I compare with the leader," Chen Geng was very embarrassed, and at the same time his eyes fell on the golden flower on Li Jianguo's shoulder, and said happily: "Old leader, congratulations!" ”

"Huh? Hehe......" turned his head to look at the golden flowers on both sides of his shoulder, and Li Jianguo was also very happy: "Stinky boy, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are good at slapping sycophants?" Hehehehehe......"

In the months when Chen Geng stayed in the Ministry of National Defense, Li Jianguo took special care of him, and now when he meets the old leader, Chen Geng is naturally very happy, and the two chatted and talked about Chen Geng's recent money throwing a lot of money, Li Jianguo really couldn't help but be curious: "Xiao Chen, I heard that you have become a fortune boy now?" ”

Chen Gengdeng was very vigilant: "Old leader, you won't be beating my idea too, right?" ”

"What do you say?"

"It's over," Chen Geng suddenly cried and mourned: "When you go under the knife, tap ......"

"Ha......" Li Jianguo laughed, waved his hand and said, "Look at your stingy boy!" Well, I'll ask you something. ”

"You say." Knowing that he was finally going to get down to business, Chen Geng's expression became serious.

"I heard that you are planning to import aircraft engines from the Soviet Union?"

"There is such a thing," Chen Geng was not surprised that Li Jianguo knew about this, and nodded: "Our target is a 100kNN thrust D-30K series or NK-8 series of small and medium-to-pass ratio turbofan engines, and if the Soviet side agrees, we also hope to introduce D-36." ”

"Hmm......" Li Jianguo responded, as if he had answered, but as if he had not answered: "Whether it is a 10-ton thrust high-thrust engine such as D-30K and NK-8, or a 7-ton thrust engine like D-36, we do not have a suitable aircraft in China, hmm...... The McDonnell Douglas-82 that flew up can be used, but I heard that there is a strong resistance to the Soviet engine, so how do you plan to use it after you introduce it? ”

Thinking of Li Jianguo's current position, Chen Geng's heart was already clear: "In fact, it's not that there are no suitable planes, and our navy and air force can use them." ”

"Oh?" Li Jianguo raised his eyebrows: "How do you say this?" Which aircraft of the Navy and Air Force will work? ”

He didn't object!

Chen Geng, who was just boldly speculating to himself just now, was ecstatic in his heart!

That's right, he had said before that he would install the D-30K or NK-8 on the H-6 bomber, but that was just his own words and his own thoughts, and he had not come into contact with the leaders of the navy and air force equipped with the H-6 bomber, whether the navy and air force intended to reissue the H-6, and how difficult the technology was, no one had been able to give Chen Geng an answer to these questions before, but now, Li Jianguo, his old leader who was transferred from the Ministry of National Defense to the Navy Equipment Technology Department, Ask yourself this question clearly!

Holding back the excitement in his heart, Chen Geng said: "Boom-6!" Our H-6 can be used! ”

"Can the H-6 really work?" Li Jianguo subconsciously sat up straight, his eyes shining: "Tell me, why can the H-6 be used?" ”

"Okay, first of all, we must first make it clear why we need to reissue the H-6, the most important reason is that the turbojet-8 turbojet engine used on the H-6 bomber is too fuel-guzzling, and I don't know what the actual fuel consumption rate of this engine is, but I have read it in a piece of public information, which roughly means that even our own comrades in the navy and air force say that the turbojet-8 is a veritable 'oil tiger'.

It is recognized that the fuel consumption of turbojet engines is much higher than that of turbofan engines, and if our H-6 can be replaced with turbofan engines, even if the thrust is the same, the maximum range and combat radius of the aircraft will also be able to be increased to the greatest extent under the condition that the fuel and bomb loads are the same," Chen Geng still said, "I boldly guess that it can be increased by at least 30 percent." In other words, if the operation is carried out according to the previously demarcated combat radius, the aircraft can carry more ammunition for combat. ”

Li Jianguo nodded: "What else?" ”

"There is also a second benefit: whether it is D-30K or NK-8, the maximum thrust is higher than our turbojet-8, the thrust is greater than that of the turbojet-8, and the fuel consumption is lower than that of the turbojet-8, which means that the H-6 after being equipped with engines can have a larger range and a larger combat radius, especially our navy, our navy's latest H-6D (H-6D) bomber is our most advanced strategic bomber that can carry large anti-ship missiles, but even if it is H-6D, It can only carry two C-601 air-launched anti-ship missiles at a time, and if the replacement is successful, I personally think that a conservative estimate can also carry four, and it should be about the same with six. ”

"Of course, having said all this, one of the most important prerequisites is that we must first determine whether the two engines D-30K and NK-8 can be installed on the H-6 bomber, and after my analysis, I think it is possible: the maximum diameter of the turbojet-8 is 1.4 meters, and the maximum diameter of the D-30K and NK-8 is slightly more than 1.5 meters, and the difference is not much, and the length of the engine is also about the same. But the technical difficulty should not be too great, and it will definitely be possible through the efforts of our engineers and technicians,"

Speaking of this, Chen Geng breathed a sigh of relief: "To sum up, I believe that if the H-6 can be replaced with a newer turbofan engine with greater thrust, the overall combat capability and deterrence effect of the H-6 can be enhanced, and it will also be a huge boost to China's influence in the surrounding areas." ”

Speaking of which, there is no NK-8 and D-30K in China, and the Il-62M civil airliner we imported from the Soviet Union in the early 70s is equipped with the NK-8-6 engine, and the Tu-154M civil airliner purchased from the Soviet Union in the 80s is equipped with the D-30KU engine, and the leading comrades of the Air Force and Navy should have a good idea of the performance of the NK-8 and D-30K engines, especially whether they can be installed on the H-6 bombers we have arrived.

"Very good," Li Jianguo applauded lightly: "To tell you the truth, the navy does have the idea of changing the hair of the H-6, but now there is a problem." ”

At this moment, Chen Geng smiled bitterly: "You won't tell me that our navy has no money, right?" ”

"That's right, that's it, our navy really doesn't have money, let's not talk about whether the Soviet Union is willing or not, now our navy means that we want to replace the H-6 with engines, but we don't have the money, what do you say about this problem?" Looking at Chen Geng, Li Jianguo was a little embarrassed.

Chen Geng took a long breath!

This is a bit of a scoundrel, you can eat as much as you have a big belly, you have no money, just squat at home honestly, what kind of engine?

However, others can say this, Chen Geng, as a glorious soldier, cannot say that the surrounding area of the republic is not peaceful, the war with Vietnam has not ended, the Lao Son front line is still fighting, the officers and men of the navy just fought with Vietnam last year, and the need to enhance its influence in the South China Sea region is imminent, but the military expenditure of the republic is limited, and the problem arises: On the one hand, in the face of the complex national defense situation, the navy must enhance its combat effectiveness. 6 Retrofitting a new type of high-thrust turbofan engine is obviously an excellent choice, on the other hand, the Navy has no money, these are two extremely contradictory existences, what to do?

He understood why Li Jianguo had brought himself here!

"So no matter how difficult it is, let's find a way to solve it, right?"

"That's right, so if you really plan to import engines from the Soviet Union, the navy will definitely fully support you, except for money, the navy will try to meet any of your requirements, as long as you produce qualified D-30K or NK-8, the navy will definitely reissue the H-6," Li Jianguo nodded, and at the same time a little embarrassed: "But you must find a way to make money for the navy." ”

Why is it "let the Navy earn money" and not "you give money to the Navy", the reason is simple, four words: the name is right!

The so-called incorrect name is not good, you Chen Geng paid the navy to change clothes, what is your kid's idea? Have you forgotten whose army it is? Chen Geng really dared to do this, it is estimated that before he takes out the money, a peanut is already waiting for him, and the best way is for the navy to use his own money to change his hair.

However, the Navy's demand for the H-6 to be renewed is real, so how should this problem be solved? It's a terrible question.

"I think about it, I think about it......" Chen Geng frowned: "There must be a way." (To be continued.) )
