955 Two-hundred-ton large aircraft

The huge list of new equipment manufacturing released at the meeting allowed the people of the Ninth Hospital to sort out all the work they are currently facing, and everyone even knew how much pressure the entire Ninth Hospital would be in the future.

From army equipment to air force equipment, a series of things, not only can the Ninth Academy take on it independently, but it needs to cooperate with other relevant domestic units.

The same is true for the Blue Army Commander Li Yunlong, the directors of the Management Committee of the Ninth Academy, or even the senior military leaders. After this list was listed, I found that the Ninth Academy had developed into a giant in just ten years. They didn't even expect that the Ninth Academy would have involved so many projects.

It not only has the manufacturing of weapons and equipment, but also the development and application research of supporting ammunition and other related top technologies.

Even so, the Ninth Academy cannot undertake all military projects, and the large aircraft is the most obvious.

Military transport aircraft are the top priority.

The establishment of the Blue Army requires a large number of military transport aircraft, mainly to quickly mobilize troops and transport various equipment and materials.

This is not enough for the largest military transport aircraft in service in the Republic.

"The Y-8 is absolutely not good. Although our troops, although their main task is to test each unit and serve as a third party in the exercise, the most important thing to do is to support the border, quickly arrange it on the border when the enemy invades, conduct reconnaissance, special operations, etc...." Liu Yijiu shook his head and refused when Li Yunlong hoped to equip several Y-8s at the beginning.

The equipment of the Blue Army is really a big problem.

The Y-8 is a medium-sized four-engine turboprop multi-purpose transport aircraft designed and imitated by the An-12. Its first flight was successful at the end of 1974, and the design was finalized in 1981 and transferred to small-scale production. For China, this is a relatively advanced military transport aircraft.

After all, it has not been long since the development was successful.

"I think the carrying capacity of twenty tons is still enough. After all, we cannot really use aircraft to transport heavy equipment, at least in the past 10 or 20 years. We just need to use airdrop troops and transport materials..." Li Yunlong knew that Liu Yijiu felt that the Yun-8 was too backward, but this is the most advanced in China at present. "You can't choose Yun-1 to do military transportation tasks, right? There is no problem with deploying troops, what about the equipment?"

Military transport aircraft generally require wide bodies.

"Chief, although this thing has a carrying capacity of 20 tons, it can transport nearly 100 soldiers at a time. Even if we are in the most central area of ​​the country, do you think that at the speed of a turboprop aircraft, the fastest flight can be 662 kilometers per hour and the cruise speed is only 550 kilometers. How long does it take for us to arrange it from Chengdu to the northeast? How much does it take to go to the northwest? What is the south?"

When Liu Yijiu said this, the corners of his mouth were twitching.

It is used as a military transport aircraft, and its carrying capacity, transportation cost, and range can even meet the requirements, but it does not conform to the development direction of the rapid deployment of troops required by the Blue Army.

"Then what do you think of! The Yun-9 has been disbanded long ago, and there are only the most advanced Yun-8 in China..." As a former logistics minister, Li Yunlong knew very well about the large-scale equipment in China. "The Yun-8 is even worse than your Yun-1. Otherwise, let's equip three modified Yun-10 first?"

"If there is really no way, I can only do this." Liu Yijiu felt that he was about to cry.

Yunshi was originally a civilian passenger plane, but now it has changed this thing to a military aircraft. Although its performance is barely suitable for use and can transport a reinforced company, it is a narrow-body passenger plane. No major congress in the world does this, which is really embarrassing.

"Let me do this, I'd better communicate with Institute 603 first, and ask if they are interested in picking up the previous Yun-9 project. If they are willing, they can cooperate and communicate with our Yun-10 team..." Liu Yijiu is still very interested in Yun-9.

Although that project was a joke in the past, without experience and foundation, the Air Force proposed world-class performance indicators for the Y-9 project: it can transport 350 people in two reinforced teams calculated at an average weight of 120 kg, a total of 42 tons, a range of 8,000 kilometers, and a cruising speed of 800 kilometers per hour...

In 1970, the Sixth Academy of the National Defense Science and Technology Commission officially issued a task, designed by the Institute of 603 to start the plan demonstration. The maximum take-off weight of the aircraft is 228 tons, the maximum effective load weight is 42 tons, and the fuel weight is 85.5 tons. The power plant is expected to be equipped with 4 910A (turbofan 6A) engines.

Back then, the turbofan 6 project had no progress and had no experience, so the project could not continue just in the plan demonstration.

"Yun-9? That's impossible!" Li Yunlong couldn't help but shake his head when he heard Liu Yijiu's thoughts.

Not only him, but also Wang Shunyi and others, they all felt it was impossible.

The Republic has just made a breakthrough in even a large transport aircraft of 100 tons.

"That was before, without any foundation. Now as long as you can get a hydraulic press, I think the second level should be much worse. Now we start the design. After the 60,000-ton hydraulic press is made, the strength of the middle main beam can reach..." The Ninth Academy now has a turbofan-8 and has started the development of the turbofan-10, using four turbofan-8s. The problem should not be too big.

Moreover, the Soviet Union has been disintegrated for several years.

Li Yunlong had no big opinion on equipment.

For him, as long as he helps Liu Yijiu realize his ideas, he will not let others deviate from the development direction of the Blue Army.

The matter of transport aircraft is like other equipment, and it is directly asked Liu Yijiu to do it himself.

The Dabashan base has become more enthusiastic than before in this hot June. In addition to still strictly adhering to the maximum working hours stipulated by Liu Yijiu, the other bases are basically in name only. In order to achieve rapid development of science and technology, the supervision department of the Ninth Academy is too lazy to cause trouble.

After Ma Fengshan assembled the prototype from Yunshi, he has been leading his team to improve the Yunshi design. Although this aircraft has a maximum take-off weight of 110 tons, it is not advanced enough. Compared with the transport aircraft with a longer range and more advanced performance in the international market, Yunshi is much worse.

They need to use the technical experience accumulated in the design and manufacturing process of YT aircraft to challenge wide-body passenger aircraft.

After coming out of the base, Liu Yijiu first found Ma Fengshan.

Now the entire Yun-10 team has been brought here by Liu Yijiu, and there is only one empty shell left in the Shanghai-listed aircraft factory. The negotiations with McDonald Company are still in progress. Of course, what is announced outside is that a new plan is currently being demonstrated and designed.

"Director Liu, why do you have time to come here specifically?" Ma Fengshan couldn't help but have to go to the fund as before, and all his time was basically spent on design work.

Yunshi was favored by Liu Yijiu, but it was not recognized by the State Administration of Civil Aviation.

Now the entire Y10 team is working hard, hoping to improve the design faster and launch a new generation of models.

When Liu Yijiu found Ma Fengshan, he was discussing issues with a group of technicians in the design room about the improvement of Yunshi.

Seeing Director Liu coming, others hurriedly greeted him. Ma Fengshan thought that Liu Yijiu was looking for him alone and was about to go out with Liu Yijiu and talk about this matter in his office. Liu Yijiu shook his head, pulled a chair over, and said to him and other technicians: "Tell me about our new aircraft. At present, the Blue Army has gradually had a special transport aircraft regiment, but there is no suitable large military transport aircraft..."

"Director Liu, we are building a civil aviation passenger plane. Yunshi is not suitable for military transport aircraft!" Everyone thought that Liu Yijiu's idea was to let Yunshi become a military transport aircraft.

"No, I don't want to make military transport aircraft. Narrow-body aircraft is not suitable for military transport aircraft... I hope our next-generation aircraft design can start now..." Liu Yijiu said his purpose.

There are only 178 Yunjin, which is still an economic layout.

To achieve the goal of approaching 290 seats, you must start considering the wide-body design.

Ma Fengshan’s team has been starting to demonstrate this aspect, and the design work has begun, but the progress has not been very large.

"Director Liu, our own strength is not enough, especially to improve the Yunshen..." Ma Fengshan shrugged helplessly and said to Liu Yijiu in embarrassment.

"School 603! We cooperated with them. Originally, they argued that Yunjiu had to get off the horse because it was too technically difficult and had no engine. However, the performance parameters of Yunjiu are still more suitable for our current usage requirements..." Liu Yijiu introduced his ideas.

The Blues need aircraft with a maximum capacity of more than 45 tons!

This puts higher requirements on the aircraft design team - the take-off weight of the aircraft needs to exceed 220 tons, which is doubled directly from Yunshen, and the technical difficulty is several times higher.

"One of our team can't complete such a work. It should be no big problem to cooperate with the 603 Institute, but there should be no big chance of making a breakthrough in a while..." After listening to Liu Yijiu's introduction, Old Ma said to Liu Yijiu with his eyes lit up.

He has always hoped that the Ninth Hospital can cooperate with all domestic units.

In this way, they will have much less work.
