"Mr. Lin, Chief Designer Lu of Hongdu is waiting for you in the reception room."

As soon as he returned to the company, Lin Hongfei was surprised by what the secretary told Lin Hongfei, "Huh? Why don't you tell me right away? ”

"Chief Designer Lu said that he wanted to take a walk around the company, saying that he wanted to surprise you......" The little girl's face was a little anxious and frightened, and Lin Hongfei's face was very ugly, which frightened the little girl.

"How?" At the critical moment, Wang Guoliang appeared, he glared at the little girl fiercely, and at the same time gave her a look, "I don't understand such a simple truth, can't I just call the company secretly?" ”

"Yes......" The little girl breathed a sigh of relief, she wanted to say that it was Chief Designer Lu, one of the chief designers of the Republic's few military fighters, and the most talented chief designer of the Republic's aircraft.

Lin Hongfei can't care so much, the top priority is to see Mr. Lu immediately, he is very curious, Mr. Lu, who is almost retired and has been mainly engaged in theoretical research, will not really come here to "see", right?

……………………

"Lu Lao," pushed open the door, and saw Lu Lao, who was standing in the small reception room, leisurely holding a glass of water and admiring the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, Lin Hongfei hurriedly walked a few steps to meet him, and apologized again and again, "I don't know that Lu Dao, Lu Lao, you are here, the kid has missed the distance, forgive your sins." ”

"Chairman Lin is polite," Mr. Lu turned around, he was full of white hair, but he looked in good spirits, a pair of eyes flashed with wisdom, he was only 75 years old this year, he can be called a designer in the most brilliant moment of aviation theory research, he looked Lin Hongfei up and down. The quilt was placed next to him, "The old man is an uninvited, please forgive Mr. Lin." ”

"If you're a villain, then the kid wishes you a villain would come every day." Lin Hongfei said with a smile, and helped the old man Lu to sit down.

It was Old Man Lu, who raised his eyebrows in a little surprise when he heard Lin Hongfei's words: This kid ...... It is worthy of being able to do the position of chairman of AVIC Second Group, this brain is indeed easy to use.

"Chairman Lin must be very curious, old man, why would I come uninvited, old man?" Mr. Lu is 75 years old, and he has reached the age of "seventy without exceeding the rules", and he speaks directly. Before he could sit down, he asked Lin Hongfei.

"There must be curiosity," Lin Hongfei did not deny this, nodded and said, "But old man, you have been busy all your life for the sky of the Republic, and even at this age, you are committed to passing on your knowledge." Boy, I boldly guess that your trip here may have something to do with the aviation industry that our country is about to develop...... Was it the Army that asked us to help design a long-range patrol aircraft? ”

"Huh...... to this matter. What do you think? Old Man Lu did not deny this. Touching the clean chin and smiling, in his opinion, all this is simply taken for granted, if Lin Hongfei doesn't even have this thought, he will wonder how Lin Hongfei sat in the position of chairman of AVIC Second Group.

"Don't hide it from you, old man, we have encountered some difficulties now......" Lin Hongfei said bluntly. He told Mr. Lu about the problems he encountered in detail.

As the person in charge and chief designer of Hongdu Airlines, Mr. Lu has made great contributions to defending the sky of the Republic, and is not only the chief designer of Hongdu Airlines, but also officially named an academician of the Academy of Engineering this year. He has worked hard and made great achievements, and he can be called the most loyal person to the republic, and the purpose of the old man's visit must be to help himself, Lin Hongfei did not hide it at all, and naturally introduced all the information to the old man.

"I understand......" After listening to Lin Hongfei, Old Man Lu nodded, pondered for a while, and said to Lin Hongfei, "Chairman Lin, I have some thoughts about this matter, just ......"

"Boy, I'm listening!" Lin Hongfei was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly said without waiting for Old Man Lu to finish speaking!

Being able to get the guidance of Old Man Lu is simply the luckiest thing for Lin Hongfei, where will he have any opinions? People who have opinions on this kind of thing definitely have a problem with their brains.

Seeing Lin Hongfei's performance, the old man Lu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although the old man who only joined the party in 82 years is talented in aviation design, but he is extremely cautious, and he is also one of the people who are rarely affected by his own wisdom in that special era, under his leadership, Hongdu Aviation has reduced the impact of the special era to a minimum, not only has it not affected the development and improvement of the strong 5 fighter aircraft, but even has the spare strength to make some contributions to the country in other places, which can be called the top of wisdom, but only one point is not good, The old man is too smart, and it has also caused a style that is too cautious and cautious, and it is not easy to fight with others, this time he was able to take the initiative to find Lin Hongfei, I don't know how many times the old man weighed it repeatedly in his heart.

"Huh...... Since Chairman Lin doesn't dislike the old man's nagging, then I'll say a few words," Hearing Lin Hongfei say this, Old Man Lu touched his chin with a smile, "Old man, I think that the requirements of the Rongcheng Military Region are actually very easy to achieve, doesn't your company have a 7-cylinder star engine, which is said to have more than 600 horsepower?" ”

"There's such an engine." Lin Hongfei nodded.

"The cost shouldn't exceed 30W RMB, right? I think that the patrol aircraft for the border patrol force, it is good to use this engine, the nose is changed less than now, the power is greater than the PT6A, and the price is much cheaper, with this engine, to the greatest extent, the existing mechanism of the Chujiao-6 is used, and the fuel system does not need to be greatly adjusted, and two auxiliary fuel tanks are added, which can basically completely solve the problem of endurance and range required by the Rongcheng Military Region, and the total modification cost is less than 1 million RMB......"

Is this the real strength of the "ghost talent"? The idea is really whimsical!

Lin Hongfei was stunned: but he had to admit that Mr. Lu's idea was much simpler than the so-called purchase of a second-hand turboprop engine and the redesign of the nose of the Chujiao 6 that he had been thinking about before, and directly replaced it with the most suitable 7-cylinder piston star-cooled engine that his company could produce, which fit the original design to the greatest extent and that the places that needed to be changed did not even need to make any adjustments to the fuel supply system and shape, but at the same time, the range was greatly improved by adding auxiliary fuel tanks...... Sure enough, a ghost is a ghost, if you don't accept it, it can't be done, it seems that it is quite complicated, but in the hands of Old Man Lu, it becomes so simple.

Standing up, Lin Hongfei thanked Old Man Lu very seriously, "What you said is, Old man, this is complicated for me to do simple things, fortunately your old man reminded me early, otherwise we would have spent more money in vain......"

Speaking of this, Lin Hongfei looked at the old man, the meaning is obvious, your old man should have taken out some dry goods today, right?

The fact is also the same, seeing that Lin Hongfei was really as approachable as Xiao Liu reported to himself, and he didn't command indiscriminately or pretend to understand, the old man's heart was put down, and he hurriedly let Lin Hongfei sit down, his eyes were a little complicated......

"I have also heard about your plan to copy the American A-1 attack plane, and I personally think that this aircraft is used to seriously waste patrols, and it actually has a greater use."

"Please advise the old man." Lin Hongfei couldn't sit still, so he immediately stood up and threw his hand to Old Man Lu again.

"Cover the Army's armored clusters and helicopter gunships, provide the Army with fire support and limited air defense against the enemy, provide escort for the Army Aviation Corps' helicopter gunships, and cooperate with the Army to launch a sudden and fierce attack on enemy positions at a treetop height that exceeds the speed of the gunships!"

"Huh?!" Lin Hongfei's eyes widened violently, "What do you mean...... Equipping army aviation units with fixed-wing aircraft like the A-1 attack aircraft? But what about the Air Force? ”

Equipping army aviation units with fixed-wing attack aircraft? Lin Hongfei has never had this idea, when the army established the army aviation unit, it had already reached a "tacit understanding" with the air force: the army aviation can have aircraft, but only armed helicopters; The position of the Air Force cannot be shaken, and the task of air cover and breaking off of the road aviation units is entrusted to the Air Force units.

Doing it himself, it was naked & naked to ask the army and the air force to open a film, and he had even seen the scene of bricks flying and spat between the army and the air force because of this matter.

"My point of view is that the Army also needs to have a certain number of fixed-wing aircraft, and it must be noted that there is a huge gap between the Air Force's only Qiang-5 attack aircraft that can provide ground support to the Army, and the helicopter gunship, and the minimum stable flight speed of the Qiang-5 is 340 kilometers per hour, which exceeds the maximum flight speed of most gunships...... In fact, when the helicopter gunship is on a combat mission alone, the speed of the helicopter will not exceed 380 kilometers per hour, and when it is accompanied by the army's armored group, the speed will only exceed 100 kilometers...... What should I do during the window period? ”

"What should I do?" I don't know when Lu Dao was, Lin Hongfei had already straightened up.

"Very simply, after the Air Force and the Second Artillery Corps 'washed the ground' for the army's offensive in advance, in order to strengthen the ground attack capability and guard against the enemy's residual firepower attacking the weak armed helicopters, the army needs a fixed-wing aircraft that can accompany the armed helicopters to fly, provide escort and strong ground attack capabilities, and the speed of this aircraft cannot be too fast, the minimum speed must even be reduced to about 140 kilometers, it needs to be strong enough firepower, thick enough skin, and most importantly, it must be cheap enough...... Helicopter gunships are simply too expensive. (To be continued......)
