Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

"Now that the design has been finalized, let's move on to the next stage. The first prototype will be officially put into production, and we will strive to make its maiden flight this year..."

Xu Huasheng said directly, and the people below were full of expectations.

In these days at Saxo Aviation, everyone is growing rapidly. Their horizons have broadened, their abilities have increased, and their personal treatment has improved. Many people now have the ability to take charge of their own affairs. This is the biggest gain of this project, and this gain is more important than making a large aircraft.

The Y-20 project can help China accumulate a lot of experience and technology in making large aircraft.

With these accumulations, China's ability to make large aircraft will become stronger and stronger in the future, and finally reach a technological blowout, and then all kinds of large aircraft will naturally begin to appear.

China's scientific researchers are very powerful. As long as there is a technological breakthrough, they can play with various technologies and make various products at a bargain price. Maybe one day in the future, there will be countless private enterprises in China that can make aircraft.

Think about the future harvest of China's technology survey of private enterprises. Many technologies that were originally thought to be very advanced have actually been mastered by many private enterprises in China. This shows the cleverness of the Chinese people.

As long as the technology is mature and the industrial chain is mature, in the future, maybe a small workshop can build a third-generation aircraft for you by hand.

Thinking about the future phased array radar, Xu Huasheng wanted to laugh. The phased array radar that was praised to the sky abroad can be installed on toys in China in the future. The price is almost as cheap as cabbage. It's too crazy.

The technical reserves of the Y-20 are now sufficient, and many key technologies have been broken through. Including the engine it uses, it has been finalized and is undergoing various data experiments.

With these technologies, if the Y-20 goes well, it will be able to make its first flight this year. If the test flight goes well, this aircraft can be officially finalized in three to five years.

As for the final price? How much will the Chinese military purchase? It is still uncertain. It depends on future strategic needs, but China's demand for this kind of strategic transport aircraft in the future will definitely be very large. As long as the price is right, the military will purchase a lot of them.

Moreover, this aircraft can be sold to foreign countries that have good relations with China to earn foreign exchange. At the same time, many technologies on this large aircraft can be transferred to other industries.

The aviation industry is a collection of cutting-edge technologies. Many technologies used in this collection can also be of great use in other industries. These technologies promote the development of the entire industrial technology.

Even if the military does not purchase it in the end and cannot sell it, Xu Huasheng will not feel it is a waste. At worst, Huasheng Group will purchase it by itself and use this aircraft to transport express delivery. This is called civilian strategic transportation capability, which is used for civilian use in peacetime and military use in wartime.

It's like a roll-on/roll-off ship that transports cars. If that thing can transport cars, it can also transport tanks, chariots, and other military equipment.

The design of the Y-20 has been officially finalized, which is definitely a great joy for Saxo Aviation. After all, the Y-20 project is Saxo Aviation's largest project at present.

"Mr. Xu..."

After leaving the Y-20 project team, Xu Huasheng went directly to the S-14 project department.

The S-14 project is also very important to Saxo Aviation. After all, S-14 is Saxo Aviation's first fighter project, and it is also a third-generation fighter.

Although S-14 is only a single-engine multi-function fighter, it is also a third-generation aircraft. The third-generation aircraft is the most advanced representative in this era. Many countries want to buy it but cannot, this is the most advanced fighter.

What's more, this fighter also has a vertical take-off and landing version, which is the killer weapon prepared by Xu Huasheng for the small country. With a third-generation fighter with vertical take-off and landing, plus a new amphibious assault ship, it is the aircraft carrier of the small country.

"How is the progress now?"

Xu Huasheng asked directly. After the establishment of the S-14 project, Xu Huasheng only came here occasionally, and other things were handed over to the project team. Xu Huasheng did not intervene too much.

However, for the project team, there are not many technical difficulties to break through in this project. After all, many technologies of this fighter are weakened versions of the J-10 project, and they are all ready-made. The project team only needs to do a good job in design.

"Mr. Xu, the progress is going smoothly. The overall design work is nearing completion and will be finalized in two months at most. Then the first prototype can be produced. Our plan is to make the first flight at the end of this year and strive to finalize the mass production in 2005..."

In the project department, Yang Wei, the chief designer of S-14, began to introduce the progress of the project to Xu Huasheng.

Yang Wei, this is a super potential stock that Xu Huasheng personally dug up. Because this person is the chief designer of the J-20 in the original time and space, he is a living legend.

And now, because of Xu Huasheng, the little butterfly, China's J-10 project is progressing rapidly, and the J-20 project has been launched many years ahead of schedule, so Yang Wei, who is only 29 years old this year, has not been able to become the designer of the J-20 as in the original time and space.

However, his talent is still so amazing, and his ability is quite outstanding. In order to dig him over, Xu Huasheng has spent a lot of effort, and Chengfei has knocked away a lot of good things.

But these things are worth it in exchange for these technicians. Yang Wei is also very grateful to Xu Huasheng. He didn't expect that he could lead the development of a third-generation fighter at the age of 29. This is how much trust he has in himself.

Moreover, this fighter is divided into three models, and there is also a vertical take-off and landing version. This is a big project. So when Yang Wei heard about this project, he came with Xu Huasheng without hesitation, even if the salary was low.

As a young man under 30 years old, as a genius who went directly to college without even attending high school, he has his own pride in his heart. Although he is still young, he feels that he has the ability to complete this job.

Facts have also proved his ability. Now Yang Wei is leading this young team to fully preside over the research and development of S-14, and everything is going smoothly.

After understanding the progress of the entire project, Xu Huasheng laughed.

"Thank you for your hard work. S-14 is our first fighter jet of Saxo Aviation and also our future famous product. In the future, we will develop more fighter jets, twin-engine heavy fighter jets, fourth-generation aircraft with stealth capabilities, and even fifth-generation aircraft with more advanced technology. Although our Saxo Aviation is a private enterprise, private enterprises are also an important part of the country. Our strength is also part of our country's national defense strength. In the future, I believe that our Saxo Aviation fighter jets will also stand at the top of the world..."

Xu Huasheng's words made everyone laugh, with expectations in their eyes.
