Chapter 228 Too Difficult

Meeting!
Qian Tao personally presided over, "Everyone, many people should already know that my visit to Beijing this time is mainly for the design and development of future special-purpose medium-sized armed helicopters. The superior ordered us to start the design and development of this helicopter immediately."

As soon as the sound fell, the originally quiet conference room was buzzing with discussions, and many people were whispering to the people next to them.

The meeting was full of senior executives, experts and backbones of the helicopter design institute. There were about three to forty people, basically filling up the meeting room. So many people were talking in low voices, and the voices gradually became louder and louder.

The entire conference room gradually became noisy.

To be honest, it is a bit of a surprise to everyone. The pre-research of key technologies only started two years ago, and many key technologies have not yet been overcome.

Qian Tao raised his hand and pressed down, "I know everyone's concerns, but Leihuo Technology Industrial Group's heavy-duty armed helicopter has already begun comprehensive design and development. Helicopter design and development."

"I know it's very difficult, but we have to do it anyway. I firmly believe that there are always more solutions than difficulties. We have so many experts and so many technical backbones. There will definitely be no problems. We have to believe in ourselves"

Although he didn't have the slightest confidence in his heart and was under a lot of pressure, he didn't show it at all. He looked full of confidence and said a lot of words of encouragement.

Even with such encouragement, everyone was silent for a while.

After a long time, an expert reminded, "What I am most worried about is the avionics system of this helicopter. Of course, there is no problem if I design and develop the casing of an armed helicopter, but since it is positioned as a world-class medium-sized armed helicopter , it must have a world-class avionics system."

"Yeah, the technical difficulty of developing the avionics system is the most difficult."

"Yes, yes, especially the observation/fire control system, there are many places that are blank for us in this area."

"I really don't understand how Leihuo Technology Industrial Group designed and developed it, and it is positioned as the world's top. I really can't believe it."

"."

The meeting lasted for more than an hour. Despite the difficulties, Qian Tao personally divided the work for everyone and set the first goal, to produce the first prototype within eight years.

Although it seems that there are eight years, no one feels that it is not easy. Almost no one thinks that this time is more abundant, but that the time is too short. I hope to give it ten years, or even more than ten years.

Among so many people, Zhou Yuanliang is the most relaxed and the least stressful. The technical team he leads is mainly responsible for the design and development of the power system of this armed helicopter. The turboshaft engine is ready-made, and the composite material rotor has also been conquered. There are still some technical issues, but given time, it will eventually be resolved.

A domestic missile research institute.

Like Qian Tao, Luo Pingfan is also feeling the pressure. He is the deputy technical director of the institute and is responsible for specific technical work.

He also went to Beijing for a meeting, and then received the task of developing missiles for future heavy-duty armed helicopters. The higher-ups required that the missiles installed on this heavy-duty armed helicopter must hit far, accurately, and powerfully.

Although there are only these few requirements, it is very difficult technically, especially the two items of hitting far and accurately.

Future heavy-duty armed helicopters are mainly used to deal with solid targets on the ground, including armored targets. It is required that the air-to-surface missiles equipped can accurately hit the target at a distance of eight kilometers, and the spread diameter should not be greater than ten meters.

Luo Pingfan knows that the existing missiles are definitely not good, either they can't hit so far, or they can't hit so accurately, they must be newly developed and upgraded on the basis of the original surface-to-air missiles.

He knows that this is not a simple technological upgrade, the amount of improvement is huge, and it involves a lot of high-tech, and many technologies are strictly kept secret abroad, so he can only develop them step by step.

If there is enough time, the problem will not be a big problem, but according to his understanding, the design and development of this heavy-duty armed helicopter has already begun. He called the Leihuo Helicopter Design Institute to find out, and they replied that the prototype will fly for the first time within three years.

The first flight in three years, if other companies told him this, Luo Pingfan would definitely take it as a joke, but if it was replaced by Leihuo Technology Industrial Group, he felt that they had that strength.

In less than two years, a world-class high-power turboshaft engine was produced from scratch, and in less than two years, military transport helicopters actually entered the manufacturing of parts for the first verification aircraft stage.

Bull, it's really awesome.

It’s only been three years, what should we do? For the first time, Luo Pingfan didn’t know whether he could complete the mission. If other people’s heavy armed helicopters are produced, and his own missiles are not produced by then, it will be a joke. up.

You can't let this world's top-level gunship not hang missiles, wouldn't it be ridiculous.

No, no.

After returning from the capital, Luo Pingfan has been thinking about the future missile design. After he didn't have any good ideas, he had an idea in his mind. Why don't he go to Leihuo Technology Industrial Group and have a technical exchange with them.

As soon as this idea came out of his mind, he felt that he could give it a try, so he shouted loudly, "Xiao Zhu, come in."

His assistant Zhu Yingwei walked in, "Leader, you are looking for me."

Luo Pingfan nodded, "Go and call Mr. Xiang, I have something to ask him."

Not long after, Xiang Xiaojun knocked on the door and came in. He is the model engineer of a certain air-to-surface missile and an expert in the development of surface-to-air missiles.

Seeing Xiang Xiaojun come in, Luo Pingfan said, "Old Xiang, what do you think about our task?"

Of course, Xiang Xiaojun knew that the institute would undertake the missile development task of future heavy-duty armed helicopters, and the pressure was also great. If there were no accidents, he might still be the chief model engineer.

"To be honest, there is a lot of pressure, and the requirements put forward by the above are too high. Not only must we hit far, but we must also hit accurately, powerfully, and have strong anti-interference capabilities. Every item must reach a world-class level. It is very difficult. .”

"Yes, the requirements are very high. After all, this is the world's top heavy-duty armed helicopter. If the missiles carried are too poor, the performance and combat effectiveness of this armed helicopter will be directly reduced. I guess the higher-ups don't want to see such a situation."

"Well, then we can only be prepared to overcome difficulties and hope to complete this extremely difficult task."

Luo Pingfan said, "I do have a suggestion. Before starting the design and development, should we go to Leihuo Technology Industrial Group and have a technical exchange with them face to face."

He Xiaojun was taken aback, and then reminded, "It's not necessary, they have already sent the technical parameters of the missile mount point, we can develop the missile according to these parameters, besides, they specialize in technology, they are engaged in helicopter design , It is estimated that the design and development of missiles is a layman."

Yes, there is a specialization in the art industry!

Xiang Xiaojun and the others are professionals. Even such professionals feel very stressed. Leihuo Technology Industry Group probably has no good suggestions. Will they be disappointed when they go to the technical exchange?

Luo Pingfan pondered for a while, and finally said, "Lao Xiang, let's go to Leihuo Technology Industrial Group for a walk. Even if we don't gain anything, it's a waste of a few days."

Xiang Xiaojun really didn't want to go, he knew it would be a waste of time, but Luo Pingfan was his superior, since director Luo insisted, he couldn't say anything, so he said, "Then waste a few days to go Walk."

Today is the weekend.

Hu Xiaoxiao took the initiative to ask Lin Feng out, and the two of them went out for a stroll together, treating it as a way to relax and rest. Lin Feng has indeed had a bit of hard work these days.

"Brother Feng, you must be tired recently."

"Well, I'm really a little tired. I'm tired during the day, and I'm also a little tired at night."

Hu Xiaoxiao smiled and gave him a blank look. This bad guy also talks nonsense outside, and doesn't pay attention to the occasion at all. She quietly pinched Lin Feng's waist with her hand, and said softly, "You are going to die, there are many people around you. people."

Lin Feng smiled happily, feeling really happy to be with Hu Xiaoxiao.It was noon now, and I was a little hungry. There seemed to be a cafeteria over there, and it was also the first cafeteria in Phoenix.

This model is not new in coastal areas, but it is relatively rare in inland cities, and the price is not cheap, five yuan per person.

Lin Feng suggested, "I heard that the cafeteria is newly opened, and the business looks good, let's go there to eat."

Hu Xiaoxiao said, "But, I'm losing weight."

Lin Feng held her hand and said, "Why lose weight? I like girls with a little flesh. Don't lose weight. Let's eat the buffet."

Hu Xiaoxiao is not fat at all, if she insists on saying that she is a little fat, it means that her flesh has grown to where it should be.

The two found a seat and sat down, Hu Xiaoxiao said, "Brother Feng, you sit here, I'll get you what you want to eat."

My girlfriend is so nice.

Lin Feng knew that she felt that she was tired from work and didn't want to make herself tired again, so she took the plate to pick up things, and knew that Lin Feng was a carnivore, basically they were all meat, and every kind of pinch was not much, But there are many types.

After picking up three big plates, Lin Feng quickly said, that's enough, so she picked up another plate and picked up a few vegetarian dishes, which she ate by herself.

The two sat down and ate Chinese food happily.

Finding that Hu Xiaoxiao is basically a vegetarian, Lin Feng took a piece of meat and fed it to her mouth, "You can't just be a vegetarian and not eat meat, I found that you have lost weight in some places."

"Really, am I really thin?"

Lin Feng looked at it, and thought in his heart, he didn't seem to be thinner, but he seemed to be a little bigger than before.

It was a rare day for Lin Feng to rest on the weekend, as if he was revived again. When he went to work on Monday, he was full of energy. Sitting on his office chair, he first read some reports and documents placed on the big desk.

Then I thought in my heart, the drawing of the design drawings of this heavy armed helicopter can come to an end for the time being, so far, I have drawn at least fifty or sixty design drawings.

They are all those big drawings, the smallest ones are No. 2 drawings, basically the majority are No. 1 large drawings, and a few are No. 0 design drawings.

The most important and the most critical, the parts with the most technical difficulty in design have basically drawn up the design drawings, coupled with his usual guidance, Lin Feng is very relieved about the design of this heavy-duty armed helicopter.

When he was suddenly free and didn't have to draw design drawings himself, Lin Feng felt a little unaccustomed to it. Should he go to the production site to take a look, or do something else.

Otherwise, draw some design drawings of those missiles.

This armed helicopter can carry a variety of missiles, including air-to-ground missiles, air-to-air missiles, etc. When designing this armed helicopter, the system also considered the compatibility of various missiles, except for the types of missiles designed by the system In addition, several types of missiles currently in service in China can be installed on this helicopter.

It is precisely because the domestically produced missiles in active service can be installed on this armed helicopter that Lin Feng is not in a hurry to draw the design drawings of the missiles designed by the system.

But, now that I have time and have CAD-assisted drawing, I don’t have to force myself to draw a line with a pencil, so I can draw a design drawing, and I can draw a part of the design drawing.

Lin Feng knew several kinds of missiles very well. After the system instilled their design drawings in his mind, he felt as if they were his own, as if they were designed by himself.

First draw the design drawings of one of the missiles, the general design diagram, the general schematic diagram, the design drawings of key components, etc., and prepare to draw them one by one. Anyway, if you are idle, you are idle.

So, Lin Feng sat in front of his computer again and began to draw design drawings.

Luo Pingfan brought several people, including Xiang Xiaojun and Zhu Yingwei, to the Leihuo Helicopter Design Institute. Zhao Mingzhi warmly received them.

In the morning, everyone sat together and chatted happily. At noon, Zhao Mingzhi sat down and hosted a polite banquet for Luo Pingfan and others.

In the afternoon, everyone sat together again, and Zhao Mingzhi was going to personally introduce this heavy armed helicopter to Luo Pingfan and others.

The color picture of the helicopter has been hung up. When everyone walked into the meeting room, Luo Pingfan and others were immediately attracted by this real color picture.

"This is our future heavy-duty gunship, the design is really beautiful."

"Tsk tsk, with such good looks, he is simply the handsome man among the armed helicopters."

"Regardless of its beautiful appearance, its performance is even more outstanding. Director Zhao, I heard that it is at the top level in the world."

"Would love to see it made sooner."

"."

Hearing these words, Zhao Mingzhi smiled proudly and introduced, "This is the heavy-duty armed helicopter we are designing. This real color picture was drawn by our boss himself."

Luo Pingfan said in surprise, "You said it was drawn by Mr. Lin."

"Yes, Mr. Lin drew it himself." Zhao Mingzhi replied affirmatively.

Not only Luo Pingfan, but everyone else showed astonishment, which was too powerful, just like a big photo.

"I didn't expect Mr. Lin to have such solid painting skills. Today is an eye-opener." Luo Pingfan expressed admiration.

Zhao Mingzhi said, "Our boss is not only good at painting, but also has a very high level of professional skills. This heavy armed helicopter is basically designed under the guidance of our boss."

what!
This is impossible!
Luo Pingfan came back to his senses and said, "If I have the chance, I really want to meet Mr. Lin. This is simply a strange person, with such a high level of painting, and his professional skills are even more frightening."

Zhao Mingzhi said, "Director Luo, I think you will have a chance in the future, because we are now in a cooperative relationship, and the missiles needed for this armed helicopter will trouble you to design and develop them."

Luo Pingfan lacked confidence, but at this moment he could only bite the bullet and say, "We will do our best."

After chatting for a few words between the two parties, Zhao Mingzhi began to introduce this heavy-duty armed helicopter to Luo Pingfan and his group, with rich pictures and texts, and specially prepared slides for the introduction.

After some introductions, Luo Pingfan and the others were not at all calm. They were all experts and knew that if Leihuo Technology and Industrial Group hadn't bragged, then this would definitely be the world's top armed helicopter.

The pressure in his heart was even greater.

Such a good heavy-duty armed helicopter should not be equipped with bad missiles. Luo Pingfan really lacks confidence in whether he can design and develop missiles that match it.

Three years is estimated to be enough, and five or eight years are still possible.

No matter what, he has come here. In addition to learning about this heavy armed helicopter, he also wants to have technical exchanges with the Leihuo Helicopter Design Institute.

As a result, the two parties exchanged ideas on the design of the helicopter's weapon system. After some exchange, Luo Pingfan was a little disappointed.

After all, Zhao Mingzhi and others are not professionals in weapon design. They are not very good at weapon design. They can only put forward a series of design requirements. How to carry out the design will ultimately depend on professional weapon designers such as Luo Pingfan.

They were a little disappointed.

After walking out of the Leihuo Helicopter Design Office and checking into the hotel, Luo Pingfan sighed softly for the first time, and the disappointment in his eyes could not be concealed.

Xiang Xiaojun said even more, "Lao Luo, let me just say it, we are destined to make a waste of time this time, and a few days are wasted."

"Oh, it seems like a waste of time." Luo Pingfan sighed again.

Some people think more openly, that is a missile design expert in their team, "The director, it is not completely fruitless, at least we have a certain understanding of this heavy-duty armed helicopter, what kind of missile target is developed?" It's also more clear."

"Oh, that's all I can think of." Luo Pingfan said helplessly.

Returning to the room where he stayed and sitting on the sofa, Luo Pingfan thought in his heart, should he continue to go to Thunder Fire Helicopter Company tomorrow, or should he book a flight back home?
Guys, continue to ask for monthly ticket support! ! !
