Chapter 1865: Gratifying progress

This so-called turbofan-13 is actually an imitation of the F404 engine produced by Han Guo. Because Qin Guan has brought in a full set of production lines, it is the first to break through, but this kind of mid-engine engine. But now, Han Guo has formed a complete series of engines.
The engine before the J-8 had a maximum thrust of only five or six tons. Now it was replaced with a thrust of eight tons, which immediately made a major breakthrough in the performance of this aircraft. Its maximum take-off weight was only It’s only 17 tons. The normal takeoff weight for air combat is only 14 tons. In this case, its maneuverability is definitely a completely reborn change. It is higher than the thrust-to-weight ratio of the J-6. Will be particularly agile.
In fact, it still has a lot of congenital shortcomings, the most important of which is the excessively long body. This kind of body makes it bottom in the rolling, even if it uses a differential flat tail, if it is pulled too much overload, it is easy to pull it apart.
Qin Guan knew that this fighter should be the ultimate when it was developed to the present. Then, when he walked to the front, looking at the cockpit, the avionics in it had also been completely replaced. He knew that the 6601 Design Institute was indeed They tried their best, and they changed the J-8 to the ultimate version.
However, Mr. Gu said that targeting the domestic and foreign markets might not be enough. In the international market, there should be great progress, but when it comes to the domestic market, I am afraid it is still not enough.
With the J-10 and J-11 in China, there will definitely not be another J-8. No matter how the J-8 is improved or promoted, it is always the foundation of the second-generation aircraft. After the engine is replaced, the flight performance It has been improved, but it is still unable to fight the third-generation fighters. If one's J-10 and J-11 are in a circle, the other party will not be able to catch up.
Watching the expectation on General Gu’s face, Qin finally said:
Our North Industries Corporation will continue to promote this fighter in the international market, but in China, it still depends on the Air Force. With such a change, the cost of the aircraft must have soared."
The previous turbojet-7 and turbojet-13 were not expensive, but the current turbofan-13 is probably ten times more expensive.
"Yes, the initial purchase cost is not low, but our engine has a long life. In the entire life cycle, on average, the price is not high." Mr. Gu continued.
Hearing Mr. Gu said this, Qin Guan nodded in satisfaction. Under the tide of market economy, finally, their 6601 design institute began to embark on the road of the market. They began to analyze the problem from the perspective of users.
The turbojet engine used in the past was low in price, but its life span was only two hundred hours, while the current turbofan engine has a life span of more than two thousand hours.
In this way, during the entire life cycle of a fighter, if you use turbojet, you have to replace the engine many times, but if you use a turbofan, it can be used for the whole life. In this way, although the initial purchase cost is high, if it is actually used, Not high.
This is how users consider the problem.
"Yes, I personally express my congratulations and condolences to the progress of 6601. By the way, what new projects do you have next?"
For a scientific research institute, if there is no project, it means that it will go into decline. People have to do something. If there is nothing to do, people will be completely abolished.
What projects are there in the current 6601 institute? There are really no other projects. Apart from the improvement of this fighter, they really don't have any new projects. The entire design office is anxious about this.
The Su-27 fighter has also been transported away. At this time, they don’t know how many people are regretting it. They knew that they should overcome all the difficulties in the early stage and imitate the Su-27. In this case, the most advanced fighters of the Han Air Force and Naval Aviation are still produced by them!
Now, Xiong's MiG-29 has begun to serve in large quantities, and Su-27 fighters have long appeared in the vision of intelligence agencies. Everyone has discovered Xiong's new fighters and their previous ones. The frames are so similar, but unfortunately, they didn't seize the opportunity.
"Mr Qin, do you have a new project?" Mr. Gu said excitedly.
Qin Guan will not come here for no reason. Although they have developed the J-8-3 project and are conducting intensive test flights, Qin Guan is not eye-catching for this project. Moreover, looking at Qin Guan’s expression, he simply I don't know about this project of my own, which means that he has other tasks when he comes here.
"Let's go, go in and say, it's too cold outside," Qin Guan said.
This area in the extreme north of the Han country was too cold. Although Qin Guan was a northerner and had stayed in the grassland for so long, Qin Guan was still a little uncomfortable with the severe cold here. He felt that although his body was In the thick military coat, but the body still feels like it is about to be frozen through. This is a biting cold feeling, as if the cold wind can blow into the bones.
"Yes, please." Mr. Gu said, taking Qin Guan and the others into the car, and quickly headed towards the warm small building.
The heating in the room exudes a hot breath, and the warm inside is in sharp contrast with the severe cold outside. After taking off his army coat, Qin Guan felt his body warm again.
"Welcome Mr. Qin to come and inspect our work. Now, let us listen to Mr. Qin's guidance together." Mr. Gu said, this is very modest, and Qin Guan is a little embarrassed.
"Everyone is polite, I am here mainly to go to Xiong Country this time and have some cooperative projects." Qin Guan said: "I want to ask us to help and start these projects together."
Sure enough, there is a project!
"President Qin, please continue to speak." Mr. Gu's eyes were filled with small hot flames.
"Everyone should know the Yak-38? In our army, there are also a batch of equipment." Qin Guan said.
"Of course we know that we have done this kind of vertical take-off and landing fighter before, but we haven't done it later." Gu said.
When talking about this, Mr. Gu's face was proud. At that time, the vertical take-off and landing fighter was a project that everyone admired. It's a pity that there were too few successful developments in the end. Although we haven't done it, we still have technical reserves. Do we want to continue research now?
He looked at Qin Guan excitedly. If this were the case, it would really be a good breakthrough. Although it was not as exciting as those conventional fighters, it also pointed out a new world for them after all.
