Chapter 518: It's actually a scrapped engine

The engine is the crown jewel of the aviation industry. Although the thrust of the F404 engine is not as strong as that of the F100, its outstanding characteristics are reliability and longevity.
The overhaul time is 1,000 hours, and the full life span is 6,500 hours, which is almost ten times that of those backward turbojet engines in Han China!
Now, this engine has been developed by Eagle Country not long ago. It can be said that it is the most sophisticated aviation industry in Eagle Country.
Future contracts may be a lot of trouble, but as far as the F404 engine is concerned, how to negotiate is a matter of the holy country, and it will be fine if you are responsible for the assembly.
The engine was quickly transported to the assembly workshop of the 1132 factory. Here, the entire body of the newly built Super Seven fighter has been built, and only the engine is left.
Now that the engine is in place, just install it.
Qin Guan gave the information about the specific operation of the installation. Although the engine has not been fully understood, the installation is still no problem.
The wooden box was very new, with the smell of wood outside. Everyone was staring at the big box, and then Qin Guan frowned.
There seems to be a drop of oil under this box. Is it leaking oil?
"Open it and take a look." Qin Guan said.
"Without Michael present, shall we just open it?" a person said.
Now that someone is here, foreigners must participate in this grand opening ceremony, right?
Qin Guan shook his head, he personally took the crowbar, and then stood outside the box.
"Crunch." Qin Guan's crowbar opened the box, revealing a gap, it seems that he can see the inside, a black mass.
"Crack." Qin Guan began to pry on the other side again, both sides prying together, and then the lid came up.
Can finally see the respect of the engine.
This engine is less than 4 meters in diameter and less than 1 meter in diameter. Everyone can clearly see the inside when standing outside the box. At this look, everyone's face is not good.
"These Eagles, are you fooling us?" Chen Rui, who was next to Qin Guan, said immediately: "This engine, it looks like it has been flying for hundreds of hours, right?"
I need an engine from abroad. Although it is not specified, it should be a new factory engine. The new factory has a fresh smell from the top and bottom, with a touch of lubricating oil. The whole machine looks The texture of metal is right.
But now? Almost all of this engine has become black, especially the part of the tail nozzle. I don’t know how many hours it has burned. Can this engine still be used?
"Look for them, they are fooling people!" Chen Rui already shouted: "Who dares to use this thing on a plane? I'll go, there is a nameplate here."
Chen Rui's eyesight is quite good. Finally, he saw a nameplate on the engine casing. This look made his face even more ugly.
Factory date, January 76.
This engine has been three years old. You know, the F-18 prototype flew for the first time in 1974! It was only in 1976 that the Navy model flew for the first time. In other words, this engine must be used by the F-18 Navy model. After a long test flight, I am afraid that it has reached its maximum life span, with a few hours left at most.
This engine, which has exhausted its lifespan, is already tasteless to them, so just give it to yourself and give it to yourself?
What's the use of it?
Even if it is installed on the Super Seven, it will not be able to test flight, and it will not be able to obtain the approval of the holy nation. Grumman will still be really bad at it.
On the surface it was very kind. The engine was given, and an engineer came back, but the engine can’t turn, what's the use?
"You don't need to find it, it's useless to find it." Qin Guan said: "We want to take the lead in research and development. We are robbing Grumman's business. They can provide us with engines. That's not bad. If you change to another company, it will be fine. There may not be other moths."
"What should we do then? We can't test flight!" Chen Rui said.
Since Chen Ruifei has the most time for the Super Seven, so the super seven that was originally reissued was also intended for Chen Rui to fly. Now, if the engine that has been flying for six years in the high-intensity flight test subject continues to leak oil, Put it on, Chen Rui didn't want to die.
"I'll solve it." Qin Guan said: "During this time, we will send a special person to fudge Michael and prevent him from participating. We will change the hair and complete the intensive test flight. Waiting for the holy country to come to the final inspection. At that time, let the holy nation know about the ugly face of Grumman Company!"
After all, Grumman is not an engine company. The F404 engine belongs to General Electric. The reason why it was taken by Grumman was because Grumman wanted to be the general contractor of the aircraft. The engine is a subsystem. It must be purchased through Grumman.
If Grumman continues to cause trouble, then bypass them and go directly to General Electric.
Qin Guan can exchange advanced engines, but only one or two is ineffective. What Qin Guan needs is the entire system. Therefore, Qin Guan did not have the idea of ​​exchanging engines in the past.
Otherwise, why are you still holding Spey? Whether it's the third uncle or F100, you can exchange it!
But now, it has reached the point where it must be exchanged.
Just now, Qin Guan originally wanted to exchange this engine directly. After the energy of time and space was flushed, it was a brand new engine, but in this way, the criminal evidence could not be retained.
So, simply, get a new one!
"Let’s study the materials first, and see how to assemble." Qin Guan said, first dispersed the crowd, and then said to Song Lao: "Song Lao, give me a scrapped Turbojet-7."
Everything was arranged, but I saw Chen Rui still by his side: "Xiao Rui, you go out for a walk first, I'll modify this engine here."
Chen Rui smiled on his face: "Brother-in-law, you both got under the covers with my sister. The two of us are the closest people. We are not outsiders. Just don't guard me. Let me see, OK?"
Chen Rui knew that when Qin Guan showed his hand and changed the flight simulator, Cheng Rui knew that Qin Guan must have the ability, but now that Qin Guan is about to show his hand again, of course he has to look at it with a face.
"Xiucai, teach Xiaorui how to learn Mandarin Chinese." Qin Guan said, "Don't let him in before he can say a hundred sentences."
Chicken Mandarin? The hardest thing, I don't want it! Chen Rui still wants to resist, and has been picked up by a scholar.
