Chapter 983: And production line cemetery

F-22 fighter jet, Eagle Country’s black technology in the aviation field.
The combination of stealth performance, agility, accuracy, and situational awareness of the F-22 fighter, combined with its air-to-air and air-to-ground combat capabilities, makes it the best fighter in the future.
It was jointly developed by Lockheed Martin and Boeing and entered the Eagle State Air Force service in the early 21st century to replace the F-15 fighter.
The original plan was to produce hundreds of such aircraft. However, due to the high manufacturing cost of the F-22, the delay in the fourth-generation fighter plans of Xiong and Han, the lack of clear air-to-air combat missions and the Raptor The export ban and other use plans include F-35 and drones. All make the F-22 production plan terminated early.
In later generations, in April 2009, the Eagle Country’s Ministry of Defense recommended that the new order be stopped and the final purchase of 187 fighters was approved by Congress.
In this way, when these fighters were purchased, Lockheed faced an awkward choice. What about the production line?
If it is an automobile production line, then change it to produce another car. Anyway, it is a matter of changing the mold, but for the aircraft production line, it is not. If it is re-adjusted, it will be more troublesome than a new one.
At the same time, they still have an expectation. If the international situation deteriorates in the future, what should the Eagle Air Force place orders?
Although after the F-22 order is over, the Eagle Air Force is still developing and equipping the F-35, but this kind of fat fighter is definitely not for air control. The F-22 is a professional fighter. Need F-22, then change the production line back?
At this time, there will be a new option, simply seal up the production line!
That's right, it's sealed up, just like the battleships sealed in the battleship cemetery, these production lines will also be sealed up.
In this way, in case of need in the future, the production line will be restarted and continue to build F-22 fighters. This is much more convenient than re-debugging the production line. Anyway, the factory is owned by others and is not rented. The equipment on the production line It is also bought, and left there to sit idle. When needed, it can be used directly after unsealing. If a large-scale war breaks out one day, the Eagle Air Force will place an order for a few hundred more, and the production line will immediately be up and running at full speed. .
This is the advantage of the wealthy Eagles.
Similarly, many fighter aircraft production lines were like this after the end of production. Only the F-14 Tomcat production line was completely demolished because of fear of being acquired by the Shahman.
These production lines can only be seen now, let alone unlocking the cemetery, the mental points needed to open the exchange are astronomical!
C17, this kind of large transport aircraft, the production line is also in it, they are all good things. If the cemetery system is activated, then as long as you find skilled workers, you can quickly develop your equipment to an advanced level!
(Regarding the sealing of these production lines, there are some other sayings. For example, some say that it is not equipment, but tooling, drawings, and process management documents. Including mold fixtures, assembly molds, and production molds. But these It's just the tooling of the assembly plant. Many on-board equipment are outsourced products, such as engines, generators, hydraulic pipe fittings, and oil pumps. Now there are stealth coatings, stealth materials, and various cables.
In this way, in addition to the production of the body shell, the restart of production must also install equipment. Even a valve, switch, switch, or button must be outsourced. These finished products take a long time and the original manufacturers no longer produce them, so they have to look for alternative products and modify the design drawings and even the process flow.
If the time is longer, the original production equipment will be eliminated, and more advanced equipment will be used to produce parts. Process drawings and purchase of raw materials will also change. If the original pipe fittings on the aircraft are outdated and eliminated, the re-production must be produced and assembled in a new way. Now, in the book, according to Hua Xiong's intention, the production equipment is also sealed up. )
When Qin Guan continued to turn backwards, he was suddenly shocked. He saw that it said, F404 engine production line!
At present, the country is developing high-power engines, which has consumed all the energy of the country. Therefore, although the country has a great demand in the promotion of China, it cannot immediately invest in research and development, and having more children makes it easier to fight. Qin Guan couldn't do it.
But now, Qin Guan suddenly discovered that there was a production line cemetery with engines in his cemetery. How could he not be overjoyed?
If you get a production line for the F404 engine, just let it be the third, seventy and twenty-one, and produce first, then the export of the F-14 will no longer be controlled by others!
In later generations, F404, as an excellent middle push, has been developing and has become F414, which will continue to be used by Super Hornet. Who would have thought that its production line will be closed and sealed in 2020. It is simply for Prepared by yourself!
However, if you want to use it, there are still many things to be solved! Qin Guanyi was excited, and knew that it was unrealistic to use it immediately. It was like a person who had a treasure map in his hand but couldn't set out to find the treasure immediately.
Waiting for the opportunity in the future, as for now, I should do the things in front of me first.
Thinking of this, Qin Guan withdrew from the cemetery again, and Professor Lin was still in front of him.
After entering the system, the external time does not pass. Qin Guan is already clear about this. In this way, if he stays in the system for a long time, he may be out of touch with the outside world and forget what the outside world was like when he entered the cemetery. Up.
With a smile, Qin Guan continued to chat with Professor Lin about experts in aerospace systems.
"Speaking of experts in the development of satellites in our space system, of course Lao Sun is the first choice," said Professor Lin.
Sun Lao, one of the pioneers of Han's artificial satellite technology and deep space exploration technology, has been engaged in aerospace work for 60 years and has presided over the development of 45 satellites.
He presided over the development of Dongfanghong, the first artificial satellite of Han. In the navigation system, he served as the chief designer of the first and second generation of the Beidou navigation system, and realized the networking and application of the Beidou satellite navigation system. At the same time, in later generations, he became one of the main advocates of the lunar exploration project and the chief designer of the first phase of the lunar exploration project. It can be said that he is the handle of the space system.
When Qin Guan heard Professor Lin talking about the old grandson, he knew that it was the elder. He smiled and said, "Then please Professor Thorin, discuss my proposal with Lao Sun. I will go again when appropriate. Visit Elder Sun in person."
Qin Guan's hand finally began to penetrate the space domain.
