Chapter 557: Have a treat (on)

Reclaiming the island?

When the generals heard it, they directly rushed Guo Tailai and gave a thumbs up: "You still dare to think about fat people."
Like this kind of ground effect aircraft, we actually had a successful flight test before you said it, but we just did not expect to be able to transport supplies in the South China Sea.
Looking back, I asked if there was any plan to reclaim the island, and to build a few islands that could build an airport.

Sometimes, as General Yan said, everyone's thinking will fall into a misunderstanding. Some things are very simple, but they are unexpected.
General Yi’s most admired Guo Tailai’s unconstrained imagination is really a surprise again and again! However, the reclamation of the island is a matter of the future, and now you have to rely on these ground-effect aircraft to solve the problem.
With these small-scale ground-effect transport planes, in addition to being able to transport supplies, they can also transport personnel. In the future, the warriors who guard the islands and reefs are also more convenient to rotate, and even have an emergency, and can be promptly treated. .
The news is good news, and it is related to both Guo Tailai and Zhao Wei. The two are very satisfied.
However, the only drawback is that the ground effect aircraft is not doing very much temporarily, and the transportation capacity is limited. Several people add a few hundred kilograms of supply, which is full at once, want to send more, or run a few times. Or, there are a few more.
Fortunately, this type of ground effect aircraft is much cheaper than a real aircraft, which is naturally cheap from principle to design and manufacturing, and is not forced to compress costs.
And the cost of use is not high, and more than a few believe that the navy should be able to equip.
To put it bluntly, the procurement and operating costs of a dozen or twenty small-scale land-efficient transport planes, I am afraid they will not catch up with a frigate, and it is cheaper to die.

Is it faster to transport more speeds at a time?

Guo Tailai heard the teacher's sister ask his own thoughts, and he did not want to answer directly: "Yes!"
"What's the idea?"
General Yan was listening directly to the big joy, and interjected and asked: "The cost is not high, it is not easy?"
"lcac! It's fast and has a heavy load."
Guo Tailai is completely blurted out: "Reference to the United States, carrying dozens of tons of goods at a time, a main battle tank can be sent.
Want to be big, learn the old man's buffalo hovercraft, more than one hundred tons of cargo, three tanks are OK, hundreds of people are not to mention.

Guo Tai's ing craft air cushion is the English abbreviation for landing hovercraft.
In general, lcac is used for amphibious operations, but it is currently dominated by coastal missions.
But with the addition of a dock-type landing ship, you can easily transport large quantities of equipment in the past.
The biggest advantage of a hovercraft is that it doesn't mind the depth of the water. Where large ships can't go, it's hard to stop hovering.
In addition, hovercraft can be very fast, which is also a huge advantage.
There are hovercrafts in the country now, but because of the short board of the engine and other technical reasons, the performance is not so ideal.
The 724 air-cushion landing ship, which was commissioned in 1994, is currently the only air-cushion landing ship. It uses two diesel engines for power. The maximum speed is 40 knots (about 70 kilometers per hour) and the weight is 6.35 tons. It can transport ten soldiers.
Previously, a 722-type air cushion landing test boat was built. It was built in 1979 and has a total weight of 65 tons and a load capacity of 15 tons. It can be loaded with a heavy-duty truck or an infantry to strengthen the landing. The hull is made of aluminum and is equipped with decommissioned aviation. There are 4 piston engines with a total power of 4x1100 kW and a speed of 89.8 km/h.
In 1980, the boat was tested for two long-range voyages with good stability, cushioning, maneuverability and rapidity, but the main engine failure rate was high and the noise was high, especially the gasoline fuel did not meet the actual requirements.
"There is no suitable engine!"
When the generals listened to Guo Tai, they couldn’t help but feel discouraged.
"That, I haven't just built a yacht?"
Guo Tailai said slowly and leisurely.
In fact, he did not say that the next sister has already thought of it, and the eyes are different, and the two test engines that look like fat people can be used directly! The optimization of the Luo Luo mt7 gas turbine on Guo Tailai's yacht is in fact the power system of the new ssc new hovercraft that replaces the lcac hovercraft in the United States. Compared with the Lycoming etf40b gas turbine used by lcac, the power of mt7 is increased by 25% and the fuel consumption is reduced. About 11%.
"What is the use of your yacht?"
General Shun just said one sentence, suddenly realized the meaning of Guo Tailai's words, suddenly his eyes narrowed up: "Xiao Zhao, your research project that gas turbine?"

The power of a single unit is 7,000 hp, and the structure is very compact and reliable, low noise, low fuel consumption, and a full set of production drawings.

Zhao Yufei quickly smiled and reported: "In addition to no production lines and production equipment, everything else."
"Fat!"
The general was almost yelling at Guo Tailai: "Don't go at noon today, I will let the cafeteria give you the most favorite handkerchief! Wait, I will report to the head! Today, I and the heads are going out, please make an exception. You drink! How much can you drink, how much we ask you to drink!"
Looking at the back of the generals who rushed out to report, Guo Tailai turned to the sister, and asked carefully: "Sister, you said that if I had to overwhelm the people in the building at noon, what would be the consequences?"
"Hate! Don't just bully people!"
Zhao Wei gently licked Guo Tailai's shoulder and said with a sigh of relief: "That is the leader!"
The final installer did not drink alcohol with Guo Tailai, nor did he know Guo Tailai’s power.
The people at the base knew it, but they didn't say anything when they were smashing. The last time they directly smashed the guys who wanted the warriors in several major military regions.
However, those guys did not say that the total assembly here did not know Guo Tailai's amount of alcohol.
When the generals were so vocal, they asked Guo Tai to drink. It was estimated that Guo Tinglai and He General had been drinking together when they were drinking.
After a while, the head of the general assembly hurriedly rushed over, and together with the generals who reported in the past, there was another lieutenant general.
"Little Guo! Good! Good!"
The head of the general assembly was almost laughing, and Guo Tailai’s hand was held with great strength. It was obviously very exciting.
"The head, I let the canteen do Xiao Guo's favorite hand noodle at noon, we always ask Xiao Guo to drink."
General Yan said with a smile.
"Why is our general assembly please Xiao Guo drinking?"
The head of the final assembly is too excited now. Suddenly, one of them immediately pulls out a marine gas turbine that can be used without any modification. It can be used according to the drawings. It is also a lcac idea. It is a happy one: "Please It should also be a naval treat! No, we will leave now and go to the Navy compound to let them treat.
The ground effect transporter is Xiao Guo's idea. The gas turbine is also the design of Xiao Guo. Who do they ask?

"Yes!"
When the generals understood the time, they agreed with one another: "The Air Force had asked for it yesterday. The Navy had a big bargain and had no hospitality, let them go, let them go!"
