Lao Maozi agreed so readily, which made everyone present feel a little unbelievable. Shouldn't Lao Maozi consider it carefully? This is a major event related to their future destiny! Why in the other party's mouth,

So easy?

Later, the two sides became very familiar with each other. Zhou Zhengguo, who was promoted to the chief designer of the H-6 modification, asked this question. At that time, Kowalski smiled: "For us, this is a small matter.

, an extremely small thing.”

For an aircraft, changing the engine is very important, but in the eyes of Lao Maozi, it is nothing at all!

After all, how many aircraft has Dongfang designed? Take the factory in the old district in front of you as an example. They only have three types: H-6, Y-7, and J-H-7. But what about Lao Maozi? An Antonov Design Bureau has only designed a few aircraft.

Ten types of aircraft.

Replacing an engine is something that affects the entire system. It's not just about plugging in a new engine. It will bring changes to the entire system of the aircraft, so you must be careful.

However, Lao Maozi has done these things countless times, and it is easy to replace various engines.

However, since Kowalski and the others agreed to stay, Qin Tao has accomplished one thing. Next, he still has many things to be busy with.

703 institutes.

"You have compiled this information in such detail that it is unbelievable. You have compiled so much information using those scratch papers." Sergey looked at the contents of the data room and was very moved.

"So, how long do you think it will take for us to use this information, plus the process materials and other information obtained from this transaction, to produce the same type of gas turbine?" Wen Gong asked Sergey excitedly.

Sergei came here with a large number of technical personnel from Shuguang Design Bureau and a group of technical personnel from Southern Steam Turbine Factory. With their arrival, Institute 703 was already full of confidence and expected to make a breakthrough.

"If we just imitate UGT, I think we can produce a prototype in two years!" Sergey came to a conclusion.

"Two years? That's great!" At this moment, a voice sounded outside the reference room.

Sergey looked over in surprise and saw a familiar figure.

"Qin?"

Qin Tao nodded: "Well, it's me. We said goodbye in a hurry last time and have been busy since then, so I didn't pay attention. I have time today, so I came over to see how it goes. Are you used to living here?

"

Sergey nodded: "Well, I'm still used to it. The climate is similar to that of Siberia. This is also a steam turbine production plant. We are confident that we can transform this place into a gas turbine production plant!"

Southern Steam Turbine Factory originally produced steam turbines. Later, it transformed into gas turbines for marine use, which were very successful. Now, Sergey believes that the same transformation can be carried out here and the same success can be achieved!

"Imitating UGT is only the first step. What is more important for us is to improve this gas turbine, improve its power performance and reduce its fuel consumption. We will need to install a large number of gas turbines like UGT on ships in the future." Qin

Tao said.

"This is exactly the ideal of us people." Sergey said: "When we were willing to come to the East, we just wanted to continue to develop advanced gas turbines. As long as we have enough capital investment and time, we will definitely be able to develop advanced gas turbines.

Made.”

"Don't worry, we will give you both money and time." A person behind Qin Tao said.

"Leader Wu?" Wen Gong and others shouted excitedly.

Wu Shengli and Qin Tao came here according to their own schedules without any discussion, but they didn't expect that they would meet here.

Qin Tao is not from the Navy, he is just the boss of the shipbuilding group, and he has nothing to do with the 703 Institute. However, he was the one who poached these old guys like Sergey, from scrap paper to the current technical information and craftsmanship.

Even the equipment was brought here with his help, so when people here see him, they become more friendly.

As for Wu Shengli, that is their superior leader.

Qin Tao looked at Wu Shengli in surprise, Dad, are you following me on purpose? Please tell me in advance, I will definitely let you go ahead!

After being excited, Wen Gong quickly introduced Sergey and others.

"This is the important leader of our navy."

Sergey's expression turned serious.

"This leader, what kind of development plan does your navy have? As far as I know, the main force of your navy is the modified version of our Type 56 destroyer in the 1950s. This warship bears the shadow of World War II.

, I have been serving in your company until now."

In the eyes of ordinary people, Sergey's words were a bit excessive. However, Leader Wu was not dissatisfied. He nodded: "Yes, the main warships of our navy have long been out of touch with this era, so

, we need to catch up with the world's advanced pace. In the 1980s, we imported the LM2500 gas turbine from the West and realized the advanced nature of this gas turbine, which also strengthened our navy's determination to use gas turbines for modern warships."

"It is precisely because of this that we are very interested in the Dawn Alliance, developing cooperative relations, and even invited you here." Wu Shengli wanted to continue talking, but Qin Tao finally couldn't help it.

"Sergey, please rest assured that as long as the UGT is copied, our navy will be able to order at least four units, or even more. As for the subsequent UGT gas turbines of the same level, the navy will need at least two to four units every year.

The advanced gas turbines you have developed will accompany the main warships of our navy sailing on the ocean. Our displacement will also increase from six to seven thousand tons to more than ten thousand tons. If you spend your efforts now, you will reap the benefits in the future.

satisfy."

As a father-in-law, my answer is wrong! I am worried that my research will be useless.

All you have to do is say, it’s useful for birds. How can it be useless for birds?

Our navy will have to sell dumplings in the future. Warships are being built vigorously, and there is a lot of demand for gas turbines. You will see the gas turbines you develop and produce, accompanying our warships sailing around the world!

Wu Shengli was stunned, and then realized: "Yes, our navy will soon usher in a period of explosive growth. Dozens of the navy's main destroyers will be produced, all of which will use the gas turbines you developed!"

After receiving Wu Shengli's assurance, Sergey nodded.

He left Er Mao's place because he already knew that what he had learned would be of no use. Er Mao's navy did not need large warships, and Da Mao would not order warships from Er Mao. Their gas turbine development was already considered a failure.

It's over.

When they come to the East, their abilities will have a stage to display, and they will also gain a sense of accomplishment!

"By the way, Wen Gong, have you taken our consultant to the computer room of the design office?" Qin Tao asked.

The conditions for these old people are too difficult. Modern computer-aided design is so popular, but they are not fully equipped yet.

Sergey nodded: "Yes, I have already seen it. These computer-aided designs are really good. If we want to improve the existing gas turbine, we can add a zero stage in front. Computer-aided design will be faster.

"

Although relevant technologies will be exchanged with the Sugon Consortium, their main group of designers have already come to the east. Therefore, Sergey can guess that even if they get the technical information there, they will not be able to digest it. Sugon

As for the consortium, I'm afraid it's going to be a downhill journey from now on.

"The hardware of our domestic research institutes will gradually become in line with the West, providing our designers with a better research environment. By the way, some aviation units will also cooperate. After all, this is still a steam turbine.

Production plants, gas turbines and other components can be produced by them, and they also have better materials that can improve performance."

When talking about this, Qin Tao thought of something else and continued to explain.

"Moreover, we can also use some of the world's advanced technological concepts to make new gas turbines have better performance. For example, an intercooler is installed between the low-pressure compressor and the high-pressure compressor. Such a design is estimated to be able to

The thermal efficiency of the gas turbine has been increased to about 40 percent."

What Qin Tao said is already the design concept of the domestic QC280 gas turbine. Although this gas turbine is considered to be an imitation of the UGT gas turbine, it has still been improved in many places.

In fact, like a car engine, turbocharging requires an intercooler to cool the compressed air. Thermal expansion and contraction are basic physical principles. After cooling, there will be more air in the same volume.

As more air enters, the front compressor will compress more air and do more work in the combustion chamber, increasing power and thermal efficiency.

Sergey nodded and looked at Qin Tao with complex eyes: "Mr. Qin, some of the concepts you mentioned are always at the forefront of the world. We are very impressed that you are so knowledgeable."

"Where, where." Qin Tao was rarely humble.

That night, Wu Shengli hosted the banquet, and all the old people attended the banquet. The atmosphere was very friendly. Thinking of the scene in their hometown, these old people couldn't help but sigh, they made the right choice to come to the East!

After the banquet was over, Qin Tao and Wu Shengli checked into a room in the guest house and started chatting.

"Taozi, are you really sure that we can launch one or two destroyers every year in the future?" When Wu Shengli was talking, he didn't look at Qin Tao. He just lay there, looking at the ceiling, as if he was longing for something.

"You are not the same. You say you want to have thirty new destroyers, and it will take twenty years to launch one or two destroyers a year."

"I said it according to your thinking."

"I'm serious." Qin Tao said: "When our country's economy develops further and our related systems are mature, our destroyers will definitely be built in batches. By the way, over there at the 14th Institute

How is the development of the phased array radar going?"

I haven’t paid attention to it for a while recently, so I don’t know how it’s going over there!

"It's almost time." Wu Shengli said: "It is expected that the experiment will be carried out on land by the end of the year, and by next year or the year after that, it can be tested at sea. By the way, according to your proposal, we have ordered a weapons test ship.

"

"What? You don't actually invite bids?"

"What kind of bidding is it? It's just a weapons test ship. It doesn't cost much. You have a lot of warship projects in Mingzhou. You can't just eat all the cake!"

"Okay." Qin Tao said: "We don't care about these three melons and two dates."

"Tomorrow, let's go to Institute 601. The Air Force is very worried."

"I'm planning to go back to Mingzhou, and I have to go to Huating to meet Xiaoling. I've been married for several years, and I don't have any children yet."

"Let's talk about it when we get back. This matter is of great importance. Our navy is also planning to buy back the production line of the Su-27 fighter jet!" Wu Shengli said: "This person must put his work and career first.

Look at me, your mother and I are almost forty, and we only have Xiaoling."

That's you! I can't do it! Qin Tao thought so in his heart, but didn't dare to say it out.

The two were silent for a while, and Wu Shengli continued: "Taozi, have you ever felt anything unusual while running outside in the past two years?"

"Abnormal?" Qin Tao thought for a moment: "You mean, someone is secretly protecting this matter?"
To be continued...
