Rebirth of Military Workers

Chapter 1002

“In this case, first come up with the design plan and demonstrate that this project will be a key project in the coming year.” Seeing Xie Kai’s determination to do this, Zheng Yucheng made the decision without principle.

It is also good to build a professional armed helicopter to fill the gaps in domestic weapons and equipment.

Seeing that December is about to enter now, this year is about to pass again.

The current base’s budget for the next year is about to be released, and it’s decided at this time, which is much better than waiting for the budget to come out and adding new project expenditures.

“Director Zheng, then our previous research project…” Feng Zhibiao was not satisfied.

Zheng Yucheng frowned immediately.

Xie Kai has never understood the situation of the base helicopter project, and couldn’t help but ask, “President Feng, what did you do before?”

“There was no special project before, which was to modify the defects of the Zhi-7. The Zhi-7 project originally used the mature technology of the Zhi-5 and the Zhi-6 in order to ensure the smooth development. Even many parts are It’s the straight-5 and straight-6 parts used…” Zeng Guangping introduced.

With his introduction, Xie Kai understood that the old guys like Zheng Yucheng had no clear goal at all in order to restore the prosperity of the 404 in the past.

Just to fill the gaps in the research field of the base.

After bringing up the Zhi-7 team, it did not give a clear direction. The main job of the hundreds of people in the entire team was to solve the original defects of the Zhi-7.

For example, Straight-7 is a defect of backward performance and reduced practicability due to the extensive use of domestic mature technology, and even serious overweight defects in the body structure.

In fact, improvements are still made on the basis of Zhi-7, and there are no new projects.

“How is it going now?” Xie Kai asked.

Feng Zhibiao and others were silent.

Seeing their looks, Xie Kai knew what was going on.

Insufficient attention was given by the base, and the entire project team’s funding was not very sufficient. There was no clear direction for the research. The main problem was to solve the obvious defects of overweight structure.

As for the advanced nature and practicality, it has not been solved much.

“That’s going to stop first.” Wang Guilin sighed.

Fortunately, the continuous research of the Zhi-7 team has a good foundation.

“I don’t think it is necessary to give up first and continue to research. The Zhi-7 is the first domestic heavy-duty helicopter with a capacity of more than 10 tons. Its performance is lagging and can be improved. As for the overweight structure, the structure can be optimized and more advanced materials can be selected. ; Practicality This, in the future battlefield situation, heavy transport helicopters can quickly put troops into the battlefield…” Xie Kai said.

Zheng Yucheng wanted to stop, but was stopped by Wang Guilin.

Since Xie Kai said so, he must have his own ideas.

Whether it is a super wasp or a dolphin, the maximum take-off weight is not very high.

Domestic heavy-duty transport helicopters are indeed still blank.

“In fact, Zhi-7 is used in a wide range of applications, whether it is used in high-temperature environments in the South or in the Southwest Plateau… At present, only the civilian version of the Black Hawk imported from the United States has good plateau performance.” Xie Kai said.

The technical performance level of Zhi-7 is similar to the Yun-10 they took over.

From taking over the Yun-10 to now, three years have passed, and more than 600 million funds have been poured in. The technical performance of the Yun-10 is still not fully mature, shouldn’t it continue to be studied?

So, isn’t it just to keep the country from stopping?

If Zheng Yucheng and the others did not get the Zhi-7 project, Xie Kai would not be interested.

Anyway, the base now has a lot of money and it is not spent. Is it handed over to the state to build staff dormitories, or simply used as entertainment expenses?

Zhi-7 has been engaged in China for more than ten years, and the only large helicopter capable of carrying platoon-level troops, has to give way to Zhi-8 due to funding problems.

With money, there is no need to let Zhi-7 continue its original destiny.

Otherwise, when the army needs it in the future, there is no such helicopter in China. At that time, the military has money and can only buy it from abroad.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

This money cannot be earned by foreign helicopter manufacturing companies.

“This thing is not very useful. If it is to quickly put into the army, isn’t the Yun-10 wide-body transporter more suitable?” Zheng Yucheng is not like wasting money on this project.

“Z-7 is really useless. China has introduced Super Hornets from France. Z-8 is now making good progress.” Wang Guilin also reminded Xie Kai.

In fact, the base really doesn’t want to put too much foundation on the straight-7.

Inherent technology is weak, and improvement is not even as easy as designing a new model.

Seeing that both Zheng Yucheng and Wang Guilin disagreed, Feng Zhibiao, who led this matter, worried that it would affect the armed helicopter project, and quickly said, “In fact, it is really difficult to improve the Zhi-7. Even if you use some of the technology of Zhi-8, you can It’s difficult to improve the performance of some of the electronic equipment of the 8th. The load and flight performance of the two helicopters are not too different.”

The Zhi-8 is also a large helicopter over ten tons.

However, Xie Kai clearly knows that Zhi-8 has fatal flaws.

Regardless of the plateau use performance, or the use as an anti-submarine or aspect, the performance is insufficient.

“I just ask, can Zhi-8 be used on 053?” Xie Kai’s words made everyone stunned.

They did not think about these issues, and did not think about the introduction of Zhi-8 from France, which was originally for the navy.

“Z-8 can’t get on a small warship like 053 at all. And large warships, how many do we have now? Like 052, can Z-8 get on board?” Xie Kai’s question made no one else be able to refute it.

053H3 needs to be equipped with a helicopter at the tail.

Whether it is used for anti-submarine, or for investigation, or for personnel search and rescue, Zhi-8 will not go up at all.

Too much weight!

“If it were a general purpose helicopter, it would have been a French helicopter in the 1960s, and its performance was too far behind. If it is used as a carrier-based transport helicopter for amphibious operations, can it be carried out with such a load? It can only be hoisted like a 212. Jeep.”

Xie Kai’s words are extremely sharp.

No one can refute it.

“What do you think?” Zheng Yucheng’s brows were completely twisted into a word “Chuan”.

He didn’t know what Xie Kai wanted to do.

It is Xie Kai who does not allow the base to do too many projects, and now it is also Xie Kai who does more projects.

“Continue to improve the Zhi-7, but we don’t need to think about it too much. We can consider more uses, whether it is anti-submarine helicopters as large warships, carrier-based transport helicopters for amphibious operations, or even plateau performance. We need to consider.” Xie Kai said.

Since the previous research on Zhi-7 did not have a clear performance index and direction, let’s come to one.

Moving toward the goal, such research not only helps to improve the technology, but also allows researchers to understand what needs to be made up.

“Improve technical indicators?” Even Feng Zhibiao felt a little embarrassed.

It is really not easy for Zhi-7 to improve technical performance indicators.

“It must be improved. And it must be able to be used in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.” Xie Kai said.

Only the Black Hawk helicopter can go on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and this thing, whether it is the price or the Americans do not want to sell more, determines that China cannot equip it too much.

Only come up with its own large helicopter transport aircraft.

“You can talk about specific ideas.” Zheng Yucheng couldn’t stand Xie Kai’s way of speaking.

Have to wait for someone to ask.

Everyone’s time is precious.

“I think we can put forward a specific performance index. If we want to meet the plateau use, then the ceiling must be greatly increased, at least 6000 meters; and the range is insufficient, which is a common problem of domestic helicopters. The original straight -7 The practical ceiling of the prototype reached 6780 meters, so this index must be maintained; as for the load capacity, the original maximum load capacity of the Zhi-7 reached 5670 kg, and the fuel weight was 1830 kg… The new model is solving When the structure is overweight, how can it exceed the maximum load capacity of 6000 kg, right?” Xie Kai looked at everyone and said casually.

Although the performance index has not been improved too much, the technical requirements for the entire helicopter have not been improved by a little bit.

Even Feng Zhibiao and others felt the pressure.

Zheng Yucheng and they stopped talking.

According to Xie Kai, if the Zhi-7 continues to do so, it will become the largest transport helicopter in the country.

Is it appropriate?

“Everyone, I know that there are many difficulties in this, and there are many technologies that need to be broken through. However, since we are engaged in technological development, we can’t just pick the easy ones and do it. That way, the things that are not only lagging behind, but also a waste of funds, it is better not to Fuck.” Xie Kai emphasized.

Zheng Yucheng and others did not speak, and Wang Guilin even gave Xie Kai a thumbs up secretly.

This kid is really cunning.

They don’t directly refuse, and directly put forward higher technical difficulty to let them give up on their own initiative.

How did he know that Xie Kai didn’t want them to give up, but really wanted to come up with it. Zhi-8 has been working on Zhi-8F before proposing these performance indicators.

If according to the original performance index, Z-7 is really not bad. However, the foundation is too bad. After more than ten years, because of the conservative design parameters and cost reduction, the Z-5 and Z-6 technologies are used and Parts and components make this project lose its development prospects.

As long as there is a way, the country will not spend precious foreign exchange to introduce Super Hornets.

The purpose of Xie Kai is to promote the development of engine technology used in domestic helicopters. Otherwise, at the back, you have to import the engine from abroad, which is to stretch your neck to someone else.

“Is this performance index too high?” Wang Guilin was a little worried.

Xie Kai did not speak, but looked at the people on the helicopter research team.

Feng Zhibiao and others are also clear that if they want to get more funds, they can only do so according to such indicators.

Up to now, no one is sure that it can be done directly.

The performance is improved a little, which puts forward all the requirements for all the systems of the entire helicopter, and it cannot increase the cost too much.
