Chapter 353 There’s a long way to go
The transport aircraft used in China at this time was the Yin'er 76, a large transport aircraft that was finalized in 1974 and entered service in 1975. There are several versions of the Yin'er 76. The maximum load of the Yin'er 76md is 48 tons, and the maximum load of the Yin'er 476 can reach 60 tons.
Ton.
Nowadays, many domestic Yin Er 76 aircraft have been handed over to United Airlines and converted into civilian airliners for operation. In fact, the military currently has limited funds and cannot afford to support these oil-swallowing beasts.
United Airlines is an airline established in 1984. Most of the aircraft used were transferred from the military.
Chen Huaiqing: "You are planning to borrow a chicken to lay eggs!"
There are currently no large transport aircraft in China, but China cannot say that it cannot have large transport aircraft.
But there is no money for research and development.
Then it would be normal to find Mota Aircraft and let Mota Aircraft develop it.
Mota Aircraft is a joint-stock enterprise. The shareholder structure is mainly Meta Investment, and several domestic aircraft manufacturers hold part of the shares through technology investments.
Now, Meta Aircraft is not short of money at all, and it has the support of Meta Investment behind it.
I guess no one in this world knows how rich Meta Investment is, including Chen Huaiqing.
The wealth owned by meta investment is constantly changing every day. How can I explain it clearly?
Xu Zhiming smiled and said: "We are also following the practices on the other side of the Pacific. Their military aircraft are all produced by private companies."
People have done this, and the effect is indeed quite good. Although the price is a bit expensive, as long as you have the stuff, the high price is acceptable.
Now it is not a question of price, but a question of what you have.
In this case, Mota Aircraft can even be involved in the field of military aircraft.
Regarding the military-industrial system on the other side of the Pacific, Chen Huaiqing could only keep silent, but the problem was huge!
This is not the time to discuss this.
"The technical difficulty of researching large transport aircraft is quite high. Technical difficulty is not a big problem. If you invest more money, I believe that any technology can handle it."
Chen Huaiqing is quite confident about this. Countless facts have proved that China's scientific research and technical personnel are very naughty. As long as they are given enough financial support, they can produce what they want.
China has been leading the world in technology for thousands of years. It didn't happen casually. It relied on having better brains than them.
Even in modern times, Europe temporarily took the lead, but China soon caught up again.
Moreover, European things were absorbed into China.
Now it is China's business to absorb all kinds of things from the world, good and bad, anyway, they have all been accepted.
When the country's national strength increases, China's far-sighted people will inevitably step forward to guide and reshape the entire civilization.
Chen Huaiqing pinched his chin: "If we study large transport aircraft, based on ten years, in ten years, the country's financial resources will be several times what they are now, and military funding will also grow rapidly. By then, there will be money to purchase large transport aircraft
.”
"Minister Xu, what you said is indeed quite tempting."
The army needs transport aircraft, and the civilian field also needs transport aircraft!
For example, in the express delivery industry, Fengshun Express was the first to establish an aircraft cargo department, and the number of cargo aircraft is still growing.
After the semiconductor industry in Chengdu developed, planes were also needed to transport goods.
"As for the research and development of large transport aircraft, I will ask Moto Aircraft to establish the project and try to complete it within fifteen years."
The time span to develop an aircraft is extremely long. For the Murata aircraft, there are still quite a lot of shortcomings that need to be made up, and it can be said that there is a long way to go.
Chen Huaiqing: "If you want to develop such a large transport aircraft, you must also need a large forging press, which must be more than 65,000 tons."
Large forging presses are currently the strongest in the world in the Soviet Union, which has two 75,000-ton large die forging presses, respectively installed at the Kuibyshev Aluminum Plant and the Verkhovsarda Titanium Plant.
These two giant machines are national treasure-level equipment.
Without these two large die forging presses, large airplanes and the like would simply not be possible.
On large aircraft, there are too many parts that require a die forging press of this level for forging, otherwise they will simply not meet the usage requirements.
Why was Airbus established in Europe?
Not because it has a large 65,000-ton die forging press.
This 65,000-ton large-scale die forging press was purchased from the New Kramato Heavy Machinery Plant by the Gallic Oberduart Steel Company in 1976.
New Clamato Heavy Machinery Plant also manufactured a 75,000-ton large die forging press.
Xu Zhiming frowned. The largest die forging press in China now only has a capacity of 30,000 tons.
Chen Huaiqing smiled and said: "It is really not easy to build a large transport aircraft. There is no need to rush. Let's do it slowly. Whatever is missing, we will make up for it."
The entire industrial system in the 1980s simply could not support the manufacturing of large aircraft.
Of course, research and development can be carried out, but it is normal for the things in the laboratory to be more than ten or twenty years advanced than the outside world.
Technology cannot create wealth in the laboratory, it must go out of the laboratory.
If you want to get out of the laboratory, you need strong industrial capabilities.
China's industrial capabilities must continue to be strengthened.
So now more and more technical reserves should be made.
For example, in the avionics system, first develop your own avionics system. As long as you have the technology, you can then copy and adjust it on various aircraft platforms according to your needs.
Gu Weitong looked at Chen Huaiqing worriedly, young people should not be so ambitious!
Young people all have an urgent mentality. If they do something now, they want results tomorrow.
"Chen Huaiqing, building a large transport aircraft cannot be built in a few years."
Chen Huaiqing: "Don't worry, Minister Gu, I'm not playing tricks. The most important thing for Murata Aircraft now is to spend its energy on the research and development of two small civil aviation aircraft."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At this time, China’s civil aviation market requires the use of large passenger aircraft. To be honest, except for major cities, other cities do not need it at all.
.
First of all, a question, customer sources!
Nowadays, taking a plane is not a simple matter. You need to issue a certificate and so on.
Of course, if the commercial airliner of Murata Aircraft comes out smoothly, then the situation will become different.
To support the development of the aviation industry, there will definitely be some policies.
For example, routes, airport construction fees are waived, etc.
If the airport construction fee is waived, the fare for taking a domestically produced aircraft will be much lower.
"I personally hope that the two regional passenger aircraft can be finalized before 1995 and can be delivered to airlines in 1997."
"And, in 2000, we will be able to achieve complete localization of the entire aircraft manufacturing, including the engine."
Murata aircraft has an engine research and development project.
Murata Aircraft has taken over all the R&D personnel and R&D data of the turbofan 8 aero-engine.
After Murata Aircraft took over the Turbofan 8 project, it first moved the Turbofan 8 project from Shanghai to Chengdu, and placed all its R&D personnel in Chengdu.
Mota Aircraft then acquired the Chengdu Aircraft Engine Factory, specifically to continue the development of turbofan 8 engines.
As for why the project needs to be moved away from Shanghai?
Chen Huaiqing has always felt that Shanghai is a city with a strong commercial and financial atmosphere, and there are many foreigners.
The research and development of large aircraft is a relatively sensitive project.
Now Shencheng Aircraft Manufacturing Factory is cooperating with McDonnell Douglas to produce aircraft!
At this time, the global civil aviation market, not to mention Soviet civil aviation, is led by Boeing, McDonnell Douglas and Airbus.
Shanghai City attaches great importance to its cooperation with McDonnell Douglas and feels that it can learn advanced technologies through this cooperation.
So the Murta aircraft took everything, and everything went smoothly.
If someone has so much money that they want to burn it, no one can say no.
After all, Chen Huaiqing's money is his own, and he can't comment on how he spends it.
It has been announced to the public that China has given up its investment in the turbofan 8 project.
Anyway, in the national plan, there is no longer a research and development plan for large aircraft.
As for the research and development of the Murta aircraft, that is not part of the national plan.
The state pays attention and supports, and instead of taking the consequences personally, it just wants to see if it can be done well through the business model.
Murata Aircraft first built regional passenger jets to practice and accumulate skills, which is quite recognized by everyone.
To overcome difficulties, you must first attack the soft persimmons, and then concentrate on attacking the hard bones.
