Chapter 182

“It’s better not to let the superiors keep staring at us.” Xie Kai didn’t want her superiors to stare at 404.

When the gun hits the head, the chiefs will always praise the 404 base for doing well and developing well, which will bring a lot of hatred to 404.

That is something later.

In the winter, sitting in the rear cabin leaked straight five, even if wrapped in a military coat, Xie Kai could feel the deep bone-scraping chill in the northwest.

The roar of the engine and the sound of the airflow caused by the rotation of the propeller squeezed into the cabin with the cold wind. Zheng Yucheng and others often ride, but they are used to it. Wrapped tightly in a military coat, covered his body tightly, curled up in a chair to sleep.

There is no way to communicate at all, and the roaring loudly will be masked by the roar of the engine.

For a few hours, Xie Kai has been going through it, worrying that the old Zhi-5 flying thousands of meters in the sky will fall like this.

It was still that unknown military airport. When a group of people arrived, Yunshi had already prepared for takeoff.

With sufficient funding support from the 404, the plane that should have been grounded and parked on the runway outside the manufacturing plant waiting for the years to gradually destroy it, now flies happily.

Ma Fengshan and others have been in Qin Fei these days, and occasionally went back to the 708 Research Institute in Shanghai. Most of them discussed cooperation with Qin Fei.

Zheng Yucheng and his party arrived at Qin Fei’s test flight field and landed. Qin Fei’s secretary Sun Daoqian led a group of people to personally greet them.

“Director Zheng, all the hard work!” When Sun Daogan saw Zheng Yucheng, all the wrinkles on his face squeezed together.

Looking at Zheng Yucheng, he saw the large amount of funds that were about to be obtained.

Zheng Yucheng hugged him and shook hands with each other, “I’ve been waiting.”

“You are the God of Wealth, it doesn’t matter how long you wait.” Sun Daogan didn’t make any inconsistencies.

This is also a straightforward person.

After greeting Ma Fengshan and others one by one, Sun Daogan introduced Qin Fei’s factory director Su Xingguo and Yunba chief designer Ouyang Shaoxiu to Zheng Yucheng and others in turn.

Ma Fengshan and others took the initiative to say hello to Xie Kai. Qin Fei’s people never thought that such a young man like Xie Kai was so valued by Ma Fengshan and others.

Zheng Yucheng didn’t focus on introducing Xie Kai, but said that he was a kid from the base, and he went out to increase his knowledge.

“It’s too late now, eat something, drink two cups of warmth and rest, and then talk about specific things tomorrow?” Sun Daogan asked Zheng Yucheng with a smile, “The last time I drank, there was no winner and loser. Tonight High and low.”

Zheng Yucheng wanted to agree, but Xie Kai stopped.

“Director Zheng, let’s get to know the situation first. We still have important things tomorrow.” Xie Kai reminded Zheng Yucheng.

The old guy was out of control as soon as he drank, and then Qin Fei asked him to agree at the wine table, and the cooperation behind him would have to suffer.

“I said, you little comrade, what kind of work will you talk about this big night, and what matters will not be discussed tomorrow?” Sun Daogan doesn’t know the specific identity of Xie Kai, let alone consider that Xie Kai can decide whether the cooperation between the two parties can be determined by a single sentence. It can be reached.

“Then talk about business first, are the information ready?” Zheng Yucheng asked Ma Fengshan and Cheng from time to time.

His reaction surprised Qin Fei’s people.



“Old Zheng, it’s already past ten o’clock in the evening!” Sun Daoqian reminded.

“In our unit, there is no difference between day and night. Let’s not talk about things tonight, let’s understand the situation first.” Zheng Yucheng insisted upon seeing Xie Kai, and firmly rejected Sun Daogan’s invitation.

The cooperation with Qin Fei was promised by Sun Daogan after drinking.

With McDonnell Douglas coming in, the production line of Yunshi needs to be dismantled to the McDonnell Douglas Teng workshop, and the cooperation between the two parties will naturally have a foundation.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

What Qin Fei needs is funding, and the Yun-8 they developed is completely different from the Yun-10.

Yunba is a four-engine turboprop, and large jet airliners such as Yunshi are not technically versatile.

The first project of the cooperation between the two parties is the cooperation on military early warning aircraft.

“Well, let’s rest first, and I’ll talk about it tomorrow morning.” Sun Daogan was not wordy.

Xie Kai’s youth was already prominent among the group. Just one sentence changed Zheng Yucheng’s attitude and made Sun Daoqian and the others take it seriously.

“Who is that kid? Why haven’t you heard of it before?” After arranging a rest for a group of people, Sun Daoqian sat together to discuss. “Old Zheng hadn’t said it before, nor had he heard of Ma Fengshan’s introduction. One sentence changed Zheng Yucheng’s attitude, which is rare.”

“I haven’t heard of it. I can’t get him to agree at the wine table. Our strategy has to be changed.” Su Xingguo looked serious. “The entire country, they hold a huge amount of funds. The superiors have ordered to follow up. Their pockets.”

“That’s what they want. If you can get so much money, you can’t be fooled by a few words.” Sun Daogan said, “Ouyang, what do you think?”

“If Yunba is used as a development platform, it is difficult for them to agree.” Qin Fei’s people hope to use Yunba as a platform to develop early warning aircraft. “We must be prepared to use Yunshi as a platform.”

In this way, the Yunshi team needs to help them solve the problem, and has to 404 out of funds.

“The structural strength of the Yun-8 aircraft is far better than that of the Yun-10 aircraft, and the safety performance is higher.” Sun Daoqian does not think that they are not dominant.

“It’s impossible for them to invest their funds in the transportation.” Ouyang Shaoxiu understood very well.

Both of them are different types of aircraft that are not technically common, and only some electronic systems can be used in common use.

“They want us to use Yunba as the base platform for development? Isn’t this a joke?” After hearing the report, Zheng Yucheng didn’t believe it, “In this way, what does it have to do with our Yunshi?”

Ma Fengshan smiled bitterly, “The problems they raised are factual. There are problems with the structure of the Yunshi aircraft. Whether the service life can reach the design time or not can be determined after the test flight is over. Especially the engine did not succeed…”

“Did they propose to use Yunba as the carrier first, and after researching it out, develop an early warning aircraft based on Yunshi with a longer range and faster speed?” Xie Kai asked.

Cheng nodded from time to time.

“The ceiling of Yunba is two kilometers less than Yunshi, and the internal space is smaller. The electronic equipment it carries can’t be compared with Yunshi. Why don’t they say?” Xie Kai heard it just as he guessed. With a sneer, “The cooperation between the two parties must be based on the tenth luck!”

Once they actually smashed funds into the Yunba to change the early warning aircraft, the entire Yunshi project was abandoned.

“The production line here needs to be upgraded to assemble and ship ten.”

“The production line of the 5703 factory is going to be dismantled anyway, and then the equipment will be pulled over here.” Xie Kai could not agree that Yunba would consume their funds invisibly.

During this period of time, Ma Fengshan and Cheng Wushou didn’t know how they negotiated with Qin Fei’s team. It felt like they had abandoned their project.

“In the cooperation with Qin Fei, we are the one who has the advantage. Why do they demand this?” Zheng Yucheng asked Ma Fengshan. “The prototype that is being assembled by the 5703 factory can be refitted as an early warning aircraft experimental platform while performing a test flight at that time, so as to save money!”

Fortunately, he listened to Xie Kai’s reminder and went to drink with Sun Daogan without coming, otherwise he stumbled and agreed to their request, and he had to be tricked.

“Did the Air Force participate in the project to change the early warning aircraft of the Yunshi? At the present level, it cannot be given up.” Xie Kai reminded Ma Fengshan, “This is related to the future of the Yunshi.”

Yunshi is currently unable to obtain an airworthiness certificate and cannot enter the market in civil aviation.

The demand for military transport aircraft is not high. If the early warning aircraft is given to Yunba, where can there be a future?

“We invest funds for domestically-made large aircraft, not for others! Yunba is supported by military funding, and Yun-10 is funded by us. In cooperation, we have the initiative. If we want to cooperate, we will cooperate. If we don’t cooperate, we will fall down!” Big.

The big plane was dismounted, and the future was bleak. Finally, they had a chance to find another way out, but Ma Fengshan and others were persuaded by Qin Fei’s people.

How not to make trouble?

Funds are invested in Yunba, what will Yun-10 team do?

“The important part of the early warning aircraft is the electronic system, the long-range early warning radar, which can find targets at super long distances, search and track targets, and instruct fighter groups to strike targets… In any case, it is not the most suitable. The larger the airspace to be detected; the larger the space, the more electronic equipment can be installed and the more powerful functions…” Xie Kai emphasized that the electronic equipment of the early warning aircraft is the key.

The platform is the foundation.

The Air Force-200 equipped by the Air Force is an early-warning aircraft based on the Y-8 modified version, which can only perform tactical early warning.

Air Police-2000 uses Il-76 as the carrier. The improved design of the YX-10 is equivalent to the performance of the Y-76. It is equipped with active phased array radar, dish antenna, airborne computer, etc., and the search distance is much longer than that of YX-8. The modified Air Police-200 is farther.

Both tactical and strategic-level early warning aircraft are needed.

There is currently no aircraft carrier, and there is no need to develop tactical early warning aircraft in advance.

With the development of tactical early warning aircraft, the scope of use of Yun X will be narrower.

Would Xie Kai want to see it?

Certainly not willing.

“They are actually right. The first is to develop small tactical early warning aircraft, which is less technically difficult and consumes less money.” Ma Fengshan said solemnly, “Although this has an impact on our large aircraft project.”

“No matter how difficult the technology is, it must be based on Yunshi. We only invest in large aircraft like Yunshi!” Zheng Yucheng has the same attitude as Xie Kai.

“It is easier to develop a long-range early warning aircraft and then reversely develop a tactical early warning aircraft.” Xie Kai knows that Ma Fengshan and others hope to save money for 404. “Once Yunshi loses the opportunity to continue manufacturing, it is difficult to fly again. Two prototypes for flight test are simply not enough!”

If the road to the civilian market is unworkable, the military market will be taken first.

Otherwise, when the Il-76 comes in, it will be a dead end when it is shipped ten!


“You don’t need to think about the issue of funding! Even if we maintain the manufacturing speed of one aircraft every two years, as long as the technology improves and the performance improves, we will not lose! The project results are preserved and the technical team has been tempered.” Zheng Yucheng said, He gave Ma Fengshan and Cheng Wei a cardiotonic shot from time to time.
