Military industrial hegemony

Chapter 1490 is not the ending of the ending (A, the development of the aviation industry)

In 95, at the invitation of the organizer, the delegation of Western Industry Company led by Jiang Chen participated in the first international air show held by our country, that is, Zhuhai-Shenzhen Air Show.At the exhibition, Jiang Chen and the others unveiled their sincere works to the world for the first time, namely a 100-passenger regional airliner and a [-]-ton tactical transport aircraft.As soon as these two aircrafts came out, they immediately caused a sensation in the whole world, and all major relevant media made detailed reports.Some media commented that these two aircrafts are of great significance, which means that our country can finally take a very important step in the aircraft field.

In the autumn of 95, the [-]-ton tactical transport aircraft developed by Jiang Chen and the others formally passed all the flight tests conducted by the Flight Test Research Institute, obtained the airworthiness certificate, and successfully obtained the production license.So far, this [-]-ton tactical transport aircraft has officially entered actual production.The first batch of orders came from China, and the largest customer came from the Air Force and the Navy. They were used to replace the old Y-[-] aircraft that were still in service at this time, and to fill in the lack of delivery capacity of the current Y-[-] and Y-[-]. , to fill the blank of our army's [-]-ton medium-sized transport aircraft in the field of tactical transport.

Afterwards, with the efforts of various aspects, this transport aircraft also began to go abroad conditionally, and became the first choice of many military friendly countries that have requirements in this regard and have friendly relations with our country.A large number of orders have been obtained in a very short period of time, so that the entire production task has to be scheduled after the new millennium.

With Jiang Chen and his team's progress in the field of aero engines, of course, in the field of turboprop engines, as well as the emergence and breakthrough of new technologies in aviation, Jiang Chen and the others are able to continue to develop transport aircraft with greater transport capacity.Because of the technical reserves in the early stage, it is very easy for them to develop a new generation of improved models based on this 39.5-ton model.Although its new generation of transport aircraft is still a turboprop tactical transport aircraft, its transport capacity has reached a terrifying [-] tons, making it the medium-sized tactical transport aircraft with the largest transport capacity and the most advanced performance in the world.Even below the model environment, strategic transportation and delivery capabilities can be assumed.

Based on this, on its platform, the transport aircraft and its improved models have also undergone various deformations. For example, the air platform used by the new early warning aircraft is this transport aircraft, and another example is the new electronic warfare aircraft developed on its basis. Patrol and warning aircraft, reconnaissance aircraft, anti-submarine aircraft, refueling aircraft, etc., have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

In 97, after unremitting efforts, the [-]-seat regional airliner developed by Jiang Chen finally obtained the airworthiness certificate of domestic civil aviation and obtained the relevant commercial production license.Immediately, this passenger plane also began to be put into intense production process.Especially during this period, domestic commercial airlines are being built rapidly, requiring a large number of regional airliners to be put into operation.If you simply import passenger planes from other countries, it means spending a lot of foreign exchange, which greatly increases the pressure on the operating costs of major airlines.

And the 1000-seat regional airliner developed by Jiang Chen and his company came into being under such circumstances. This is like sending carbon in a timely manner, giving many airlines hope.Therefore, a large number of orders flocked in for a while, plus the orders accumulated in the previous period, its total orders reached an astonishing [-].This made Jiang Chen and the others ecstatic, and at the same time greatly shocked the aviation market in the entire country and even the entire world.On the one hand, they envied Hu always envious of Jiang Chen's company's opportunities or good luck, and on the other hand, they also re-recognized our domestic aviation market.In this context, the major aircraft manufacturing giants have accelerated their layout strategies in the domestic market, and a fight is inevitable.And with Jiang Chen and their airliner's huge cost-effective advantage, these aviation giants also had to start to soften, and then drastically lowered the price, which benefited the entire domestic market a lot.

Taking this as an opportunity, Jiang Chen and the others, with the support of relevant departments, also began to actively apply for airworthiness certificates for several major foreign regions.It may be a mutual benefit of some kind of interest. Jiang Chen and the others finally successfully obtained the international general airworthiness certificate, which means that the aircraft they produced can fly anywhere in the world. The market paved the way.

Because of its super cost-effectiveness, this regional airliner has also been favored by many small and medium-sized regions and international and aviation companies, making its orders continue to increase, and it has greatly occupied a large part of the international regional airliner market. .

After the successful R&D, production and sales of this regional airliner, Jiang Chen and the others immediately decided to start the research and development of the next generation of large regional airliner. Its level is temporarily positioned at 190 to 210 seats. Fly, put into commercial production in 919.

In order to realize these major projects, the entire project research team has put in a lot of effort.A lot of scientific research work has been done in this area. After dissecting the current models of the main strategic transport aircraft in the world, the R&D team finally found a design idea that suits them.And in 02, four years later, the first flight of the new Universiade model was successfully achieved, and the project code name was 'Peng'.

Although it is said to be a success, there are still many problems that cannot be solved. One of the biggest problems is still in the aircraft engine.Although these years, the aerodynamic laboratory under Jiang Chen and his company has been exploring and researching the manufacturing technology and process of aero-engines.But there is no way, we have not made a major breakthrough in this regard.Although many plans have been modified, related problems still cannot be solved. One of the biggest problems is the strength and high temperature resistance of the materials used for the core shaft and bearings of the aero-engine.Of course, this problem still exists on the engine blades of the aircraft, and the strength and high temperature resistance of the engine blades have also become a very important problem.To put it bluntly, it is still in terms of materials. In terms of this special material, Jiang Chen and the whole country have made very slow progress in this area.

Therefore, in order not to affect the development progress of this strategic heavy-duty transport aircraft, Jiang Chen and the others had to cooperate with Russia to purchase the transport aircraft engines they produced.Thanks to the internal development and growing influence of Jiang Chen and his company including Wei Lingling's Xingmin Company over the years, the cooperation on this project has become smooth.The conditions are not so harsh, and it can be regarded as saving a lot of work for the entire scientific research team.
