Of course, Fang Lang was very happy about General Nairo Mora's awakening, not to mention that when he stuffed the Chinese into the air force in the future, the resistance would be reduced.

Just because Fangyuan Aircraft Manufacturing Company can get more R&D funds from the military, it will definitely make him a lot of money.

Thinking of this, Fang Lang did not forget to remind:

"I think that since you want to take them to make money and develop real high-tech technology, the allocation ratio of this R&D cost should be carefully considered.

It is necessary to be able to meet the actual needs of R&D, and to ensure that they feel that following you is more promising than their own, so that they can always support you. ”

General Nairo Mora, who had completely calmed down, smiled slightly when he heard this, slowly returned to his position, sat down slowly, and said slowly:

"General Fang, it is really the right choice to invite you over today.

This suggestion of yours has given me the opportunity to regain control of the Air Force, and as for this distribution ratio, I have a certain number in mind, and it depends on whether you can convince them this afternoon.

I will always remember you for helping me, and you will be my best friend.

But today's matter, I hope you can keep it secret for us. ”

Hearing this, Fang Lang was slightly stunned at first, and wanted to discuss it with the other party to see what proportion of this R&D fund should be distributed! Of course, he hopes that the higher the proportion of R&D funds, the better, so that his factory can get more benefits.

I didn't expect this old boy to cross the river and tear down the bridge! I just said that I had a fixed number, and I would talk to someone from the Air Department in the afternoon.

Obviously I don't want to be a part of it!

Do you want to keep your own affairs secret for today, is this for fear of letting others know about him being set up by others, or is it for fear of being known about their Air Force's behavior of arbitraging national research funds?

However, this emotion only flashed in Fang Lang's mind, after all, the other party did not do anything wrong, after all, he was still an outsider, and it was indeed not appropriate to intervene too much in the internal affairs of the Dao Air Force.

This is obviously someone else's family matter, you must learn to respect each other and not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, so that you can be true friends!

Fang Lang, who understood this, just smiled slightly and said:

"We're friends, don't say anything helpful, I'm just giving some of my opinions, and I'm glad to make you feel something.

I just spoke, how offended, and I hope General Mora doesn't mind. ”

When General Nairo Mora heard this, he smiled indifferently and said sincerely:

"Your opinion has made me reacquaint myself with myself, and I am grateful that you are too late! How would you mind! ”

Seeing that the other party seemed to just want to be polite to him, Fang Lang understood that he seemed to be about to get up and say goodbye. Looks like I'll have to settle my lunch today!

Alas! It's hard to be a good person!

With a sigh, Fang Lang took the initiative to get up and said to General Nairo Mora:

"Your Excellency General still has important things to do today, so my brother won't bother too much.

The storm has passed, and I am about to leave for Natal, so my brother will take his leave. ”

As if sensing that something was wrong with the Dao atmosphere, General Nairo Mora also quickly got up, holding Fang Lang's left arm with his right hand and said:

"How can this work? Okay, I'm going to have a big dinner today, and my brother must give my brother this face. ”

Hearing the other party follow his words, he calls himself an elder brother, he himself is an elder brother, and it is obvious that he wants brothers to intersect, and he doesn't know whether the other party is casually saying it or really has this intention.

smiled, but still said politely:

"Our brother has a lot of opportunities to eat, and it's not too late to invite me to dinner when my brother has completely reorganized his team.

The most important thing for my brother now is to plan first, how to convince these profit-hungry guys! ”

General Nairo Mora smiled bitterly when he heard this, sighed lightly and said:

"It's my brother's, it's not good this time, next time my brother will make up for it."

Unconsciously, the two had really become brothers, Fang Lang smiled slightly, gave each other a big hug, and patted each other's backs and said:

"Brothers, don't be so polite, just say hello when you have something."

After hearing Fang Lang's words, General Nairo Mora's face was slightly hot, and he felt that he was really a little unauthentic in what he did today. Fang Lang did not show any dissatisfaction, but still regarded himself as a friend, which moved him very much and kept this love deeply in his heart.

His hands patted Fang Lang's back a few times very naturally, and he didn't say anything more.

After the two let go, Fang Lang picked up the military hat that was put aside and put it on his head, and walked out of the sofa area, and General Nairo Mora also put on the military hat and sent Fang Lang out.

Walking out of the office, Fang Lang did not forget to remind:

"Your tea is not bad, it's just a tea set, wait for me to send you a set of Chinese kung fu tea sets, next time I come over, I want to drink kung fu tea."

The three officers outside obviously didn't know what the two commanders were talking about, and when they saw the two of them walking out of the office talking and laughing, they all got up and saluted again.

General Nairo Mora had already packed up his mood, and followed behind Fang Lang with a smile on his face and said:

"No problem, next time we'll drink kung fu tea. However, it's not enough for you to give me a kung fu tea set, I still want your good tea Huaxia Biluochun. ”

Hearing this, Fang Lang laughed.

"No problem."

The two walked out of the Air Force Department building talking and laughing all the way, and General Nairo Mora kept sending Fang Lang out of the door, watching Fang Lang's convoy go away, before slowly turning back.

When I went upstairs, I still nodded with every air force officer I met with a smile on his face, I don't know if it was an illusion, many people felt that the current General Nairo Mora seemed to have become a little more relaxed.

After getting into the car, Fang Lang looked at the tall Air Department building, smiled and shook his head, the meaning of his smile was incomprehensible.

Qi Qingshan, who was in the co-pilot's seat, looked back at Fang Lang and asked with a little doubt:

"Boss, where are we going next?"

Fang Lang looked at the street scene outside the window, although the sky was still raindropping, it was obviously much smaller, and the number of pedestrians on the road gradually increased.

"Let's go back to the club for lunch, you ask the airport to see when the plane will take off, and if it's okay, we'll fly to São Paulo in the afternoon."

When Qi Qingshan heard this, he glanced at Fang Lang with some surprise, but he didn't say anything, just nodded solemnly, and then turned his head and sat down.

"Yes, boss!"

Fang Lang looked out the window without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

In the afternoon of the same day, the group took a special plane to fly directly to Sao Paulo, and when they landed in Sao Paulo, it was time for dinner, Fang Lang went home directly and had a warm dinner with his family.

Early the next morning, under the escort of the guards, Fang Lang came to Fangyuan Aircraft Manufacturing Co., Ltd. on the outskirts of São Paulo again.

The current Fangyuan Aircraft Manufacturing Company is no longer what it was when it first came over, with vehicles constantly coming in and out, and workers in uniform work clothes are also coming and going.

"Boss, this is the T-1 prototype we are testing."

Ante Polman pointed to a propeller plane on the tarmac with only a simple paint job and introduced it to Fang Lang.

Fang Lang, who had already seen the plane from afar, nodded with a smile, pushed the car door, and said to Ante Polman beside him while getting out of the car:

"Looks like you're very efficient! Has the prototype been built so quickly, and the body for static and fatigue testing has been assembled? ”

Hearing the compliment of the boss, Ante Polman seemed very happy, and laughed:

"The boss has won the award, the test body has been assembled, and the test work is also being carried out in an orderly manner. According to Professor Tanke, this aircraft is not very difficult at all, and of course it is very efficient. ”

Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled slightly, and accompanied by the other party, slowly walked towards the T-1 plane on the tarmac.

At this moment, next to the plane, there are several engineers holding various tools, tapping around the plane from time to time, and taking out tools like stethoscopes, sticking to the body of the plane to listen to something.

Obviously checking the situation of the aircraft, according to Fang Lang's own experience, it is estimated that this should be a flaw detection of metal, after all, in this era without electronic detectors, this is a very common detection method.

To Fang Lang's delight, almost every engineer was followed by one or two young people like assistants. The young men were holding a notebook in their hands, and the engineers were talking as they took notes in the notebook, and from time to time they would take their stethoscopes and listen attentively under the guidance of the engineers.

This approach allows the company to have more qualified talents in the shortest possible time.

Not far in front of the plane, Professor Tan Ke and a few people were discussing something with the people in the pilot's suit.

Fang Lang asked Ante Polman beside him as he walked forward:

"Professor Tanke, what are they doing here?"

"Now the T-1 trainer is still in the testing stage, and some difficult flight maneuvers need to be carried out during the test, and whether the aircraft meets the design standards has been tested.

Every day, Professor Tan Ke has to communicate with the test pilot about the test flight movements, and after the test pilot, the test pilot also needs to tell our engineer in charge of testing how he feels during the test flight.

Based on the data collected and the test pilot's feelings, the engineers detect if there are problems with the aircraft and where improvements can be made. ”

Ante Polman has coordinated the trial production of many aircraft, and these things are clear, so as soon as Fang Lang asked, he directly introduced them to Fang Lang.

The two chatted while walking, and soon came to the plane, Professor Tan Ke also saw Fang Lang, and took the initiative to greet Fang Lang, Fang Lang smiled and nodded when he saw this, and motioned to the other party to continue chatting with the test pilot, he wanted to see the plane.

This T-1 trainer does not look big, the wingspan is about the same as the F4F Wildcat carrier-based fighter currently in service on the aircraft carrier, and the length is obviously longer than the T-1 in front of him, according to Fang Lang's estimation, it should be because of the two seats.

Unlike the turboprop engine, which is different from the piston engine, the diameter of the entire nose is significantly smaller, and the single engine has a protruding exhaust pipe on each side of the nose, and there is also an air intake under the nose.

The design of the whole exterior is more streamlined, especially the curved glass on the teardrop-shaped glass cockpit, which must be a new product after the breakthrough of glass technology.

Although it has not yet reached the overall glass shield seen in later generations, it is also significantly less than the number of cockpit glass on the F4F Wildcat in service on its own aircraft carrier.

This means that the pilot will inevitably have a better field of view and a corresponding reduction in blind spots, which is especially important for aircraft that still have to fight within line-of-sight.

The whole machine adopts an all-metal semi-monocoque structure, which has been used in later generations. The stress skin is still riveted.

The cantilevered, all-metal rear wing looks modest and unremarkable, and this is the most common rear wing layout of this period, as well as the Super Tucano.

This is a propeller aircraft that was classified as a primary trainer in later generations, of course, such a clear division has not been made in this era.

Around this first aircraft developed by Fangyuan Aircraft Manufacturing Company, Fang Lang's excitement was overflowing, touching here from time to time, knocking on where from time to time, like a man getting his first big toy, some feelings of love to put it down.

Seeing this, Ante Polman was also full of smiles, and followed Fang Lang without saying a word, waiting for him to appreciate it slowly.

After Fang Lang circled the plane three times, he finally got out from under the plane satisfied.

Professor Tan Ke had also finished communicating with the test pilot, and came to Fang Lang's side and said to Fang Lang:

"Boss, nice to meet you!"

Hearing the other party's voice, Fang Lang reacted, turned around and grabbed the other party's hand, and after giving the other party a big hug, he said very happily:

"I'm glad to meet you, too, Professor Tank. You never disappointed, and we didn't expect our first plane to roll off the assembly line in such a short period of time. ”

Hearing this, Kurt Tanck just smiled slightly, and said a little blandly:

"Boss, you know, I'm not here.

Not sure when we can proceed with my jet fighter project. ”

Fang Lang is also used to Kurt Tanck's straightforwardness, and in the past, he would take a detour and try to avoid the topic of jet fighter development.

However, today he decided not to continue to hang the other party, after all, such a genius designer, but it is very rare, if he can't realize the other party's ideals, causing the other party to jump ship and leave him, it will be a big loss.

"I've decided that the next project is to support you in developing a new jet fighter, I wonder if you already have a direction for yourself?"

Kurt Tank obviously didn't expect that the boss would agree to him so easily today, and he didn't react for a while, and asked in disbelief:

"Boss, are you serious?"

Seeing Kurt Tanke's expression, Fang Lang laughed, patted the other party's arm vigorously, nodded seriously and said:

"Of course, I've always been very serious.

However, turbojet engines are not yet in the starting stage, and if we want to develop jet fighters, we may need to purchase engines from outside worlds.

This can be very limited when researching, so you have to be prepared. ”

Professor Kurt Tanck said confidently when he heard this:

"Rest assured, we have already started the research of the engine, and we have encountered a lot of problems in the development of the turboprop engine of the T-1 project, so I have recruited several engineers from Germany who have experience in the development of jet engines.

As long as the boss can agree to our project, I will organize them to start the relevant design work. ”

Seeing the other party's confident appearance, Fang Lang also laughed.

"It's not like it used to be, and we don't have to develop new turbojet engines entirely on our own. I'm now a shareholder of General Electric, which has turbojet engine products.

You can pick from their catalog of products that best suit our products. If you are not satisfied, you can also inspect Pratt & Whitney or Rolls-Royce's related products, you don't have to worry about procurement, I"
