For a fighter aircraft that has completed the first flight of a prototype, it is not realistic to modify its internal structure and aerodynamic shape. At most, it can only be repaired and repaired. Moreover, Lu Hesheng has no aerodynamic data for this aircraft. After research, it is even more inconvenient to express any opinions.
Therefore, he felt that what he could do was to help 3601 improve the combat effectiveness of the aircraft by improving the capabilities of the onboard electronic system.
So he introduced in detail some of the experience summed up during his work and the achievements of the United States in various airborne electronic subsystems, such as high-power PD radar, such as the application of fly-by-wire control systems, and its simulations from the first generation. The circuit fly-by-wire control system has developed to the progress and performance of the second-generation digital fly-by-wire control system, such as inertial navigation plus global satellite positioning integrated navigation system, such as multi-function display system, head-up display system, fire control computer, transmission bus, etc. Wait……
He said in detail, almost without reservation, and all the audience listened carefully and took notes carefully. For them, this is an extremely precious and rare opportunity for them to interact with the world’s top The face-to-face, unobstructed communication of aircraft design masters also allowed them to learn about the understanding of advanced fighter aircraft in the United States, the de facto strongest country in the aviation industry, as well as its incomparable industrial foundation and scientific research capabilities.
Therefore, when he finished his speech, he naturally received warm applause.
At this moment, the director of the Third Machinery Department who had been with him finally revealed the true purpose of his trip: they hoped to communicate with Huami through the bridge Lu Hesheng, and obtain some advanced technology and equipment from the United States.
Lu Hesheng said on the spot that he would definitely help. He would try to contact some U.S. subsystem suppliers to see if it is possible to obtain approval from the U.S. Congress to export some advanced technology and equipment to China to improve the actual combat effectiveness of this fighter.
And when he made this promise, he did not forget to give Tan Zhenhua a stern look. In his opinion, with the current relationship between Hua and Mi, which is almost "close allies", the U.S. is likely to let go. Open the export of some advanced equipment, and may even entrust an aircraft company as the general contractor to help China Rebuild this fighter!
Because it is not a simple matter to integrate these sub-systems and make them work in coordination and maximize their effectiveness. It is a very good solution to have an experienced general contractor do this. Program.
If Grumman still existed, how good would it be?
And with its own relationship, this general contractor will certainly never be left behind!
Maybe he will take charge of this project. Then, can't he do more?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glared again at Tan Zhenhua, who hadn't said a word during the entire visit today, and at the same time a question emerged in his heart-right? With the meticulousness of this bastard's mind, it's impossible for him not to see this? If it is only for today’s matter, he only needs to formally communicate with Grumman through himself, and then formally apply to the U.S. government through Grumman, then he is also very likely to obtain approval to go to China, and there is a chief engineer. With your identity, it will be easier to advance this project...
So, why on earth would he bring Grumman down? !
With full of doubts, Lu Hesheng ended his visit to the 3603 and 3112 factories. At night, he finally couldn't help but found an opportunity for no one to raise his questions to Tan Zhenhua.
Tan Zhenhua just replied: "Grandpa Lu, you will understand when the next trip comes."
No matter, Lu Hesheng, who is already more than 60 years old, still has this patience. Since this kid wants to sell Guanzi, let him sell it, but see what he is hiding!
Lu Hesheng shook his head and went back to his room to rest, but Tan Zhenhua rarely suffered from insomnia.
Because at this moment, he has mixed feelings in his heart.
The next trip is Xijing, where Lu Hesheng will see the "Flying Leopard" fighter project that he has invested a lot of effort and money to promote. Tan Zhenhua can declare without blushing that the current technical status of the "Flying Leopard" fighter is better than that of the "J-8". II" leads a whole generation!
Moreover, in his plan, there is a more radical aspiration for the future development of "Flying Leopard". If that aspiration wants to become a reality, Lu Hesheng will be an indispensable and important part of it!
But this is only one of the reasons why he had to destroy Grumman.
In his past life, scenes like today have also been staged, but the timetable has been slightly delayed.
In that time and space, as the relationship between Huami and Huami continued to heat up, China Xia obtained the permission of the U.S. government to export some advanced aviation sub-systems to China through other channels, and it was Grumman who obtained the qualification as a general contractor.
Among them, Lu Hesheng has a great merit.
The famous "Unfinished Building" project "Pearl of Peace" project was born.
In 1987, after a long negotiation, Huami signed a contract to export to Huaxia related equipment that could improve 55 sorties of "F-8Ⅱ". Grumman was the general contractor to provide equipment and modification for Huaxia. Services and cooperation content include: installing AN/APG-66V fire control radar, advanced cockpit display system, 1553B data transmission bus, new fire control computer, LN-39 inertial navigation system, advanced atmospheric sensor, etc. for "J-8Ⅱ" , The total contract value is up to 550 million US dollars.
Both Huami and Huami have attached great importance to this cooperation. Huaxia paid an upfront payment of 200 million US dollars, and two "J-8II" fighters were shipped to the United States. At the same time, it sent about 20 technicians to Grumman Company in Long Island, New York. The factory and Dayton Air Force Base carry out training and learning. While the Mifang not only opened the door for technological transformation to China, it also used the 6510 squadron of the "Air Force Flight Test Center" at Edwards Base to conduct training for the modified aircraft. Test flight.
It seems that everything is going well and everything is perfect.
However, it stopped abruptly in 1991.
The U.S. even detained the two "J-8II" fighters provided by the Chinese and refused to return them. Of course, there is no expectation for the 200 million U.S. dollars.
This result is of course not Lu Hesheng’s responsibility, nor even Grumman’s pot. It is entirely determined by the international political environment at the time.
But Huaxia has actually lost money and time more precious than money!
Many sub-system projects that are promoting self-research in China have lost their funding sources and have to stagnate. In order to make up for the funds required to implement the "Pearl of Peace" program, China’s self-researched fighter project was once again sacrificed, and the "Flying Leopard" was reduced. Investing and maintaining the test flight with difficulty, the "J-10" faces the threat of dismounting again and again...
Tan Zhenhua did not want this scene to be staged again, and tried his best to reverse the wheel of historical inertia, knowing that it would be a "unfinished building", so why did he build it?
But, for this reason, who can he tell?
He can't even express any disagreements on this matter, otherwise, countless hats may be buckled down, crushing him, and causing countless obstacles to several major projects he is advancing.
So he can only shut his mouth.
This may be foreseeing the pain in the future!
With a wry smile, he embarked on a flight to Xijing together with Lu Hesheng, who was full of doubts.
