Chapter 399

Yes, it's not only the same, it's not even as popular as the old Yun 5. After all, if the modified Yun 5 with a turboprop engine doesn't make a qualitative leap, the overall cost is not only higher than the old Yun 5, but also the same in performance. In this case, users know that it's cost-effective to use the old Yun 5.

What's more, Tengfei factory is not without a lesson from the past. The parent model of yun-5 is An-2 transport aircraft of the Soviet Union. In the late 1970s, Antonov Design Bureau thought that the performance of An-2 designed in the 1940s was too old to adapt to the future development.

On the basis of An-2, it was replaced with a high-power turboprop engine. This is the successor model of An-2 transport aircraft, an-3 transport aircraft.

Since 1980, the project has been approved, several prototypes have been manufactured and a series of test flights have been carried out, and the final result is that this model is silent.

There is only one reason, that is, apart from changing the engine, the performance of an-3 is not much better than that of An-2. On the contrary, because of the high manufacturing cost and complex maintenance of turboprop engine, the performance of An-2 with piston engine is not as cost-effective as that with piston engine.

Even if the equipment has no future, this model has no alternative but to get off the horse.

If Tengfei factory only installed a Honeywell turboprop engine on yun-5, the rest would remain unchanged, but it would be a replica of the Soviet Union's an-3.

The future may not be as good as an-3. At least an-3 will be able to fly for several years before it can hold on. It is estimated that Tengfei factory will attract some attention during its first flight, and then publish a successful first flight of China's first turboprop general-purpose aircraft in the newspaper, which will completely fulfill its historical mission.

I can't help it. It's more expensive than Lao Yun 5, and it's more complicated to maintain. The most important thing is that the work is not much better than Lao Yun 5. Why do people use your things?

At that time, apart from gaining some good reputation, Tengfei factory will not have anything substantial, but will lose a lot.

The Antonov Design Bureau of the Soviet Union has a large number of heavy-duty transport aircraft projects. A small an-3 is nothing at all.

But Tengfei factory can't do it. It has been developing all the way up to now. Once this model fails, it means the failure of Tengfei factory's development strategy of entering manned aircraft.

At that time, Tengfei factory can only make a change in its existing business, re accumulate strength, and then launch an impact on this field. The problem is that when the next time comes, I don't know what's going on. At that time, the domestic market will be hard to ignore, and similar models will also start to emerge in the international market.

For example, PC-6 and PC-12 in piltus, Switzerland, and super Toucan of Embraer.

They are representative works of single engine turboprop aircraft. In Europe and the United States, aviation giants monopolize large jetliners and actively expand the private business aircraft market, leaving little market space for other aviation manufacturers.

But the market segment of single engine turboprop aircraft is one of the major items.

If Tengfei factory can complete the modification and reconstruction of yun-5 according to the plan, and apply it to the harsh areas such as the Qinghai Tibet Plateau and border areas, and then obtain the airworthiness certificate of modified yun-5 in Europe and the United States through a series of means, it can compete with Pilatus of Switzerland and Embraer in this market segment.

At that time, Tengfei factory will be able to make full use of its advantages in the whole industrial chain and low labor costs to achieve high cost performance in the international market, and it will be able to crush these two enterprises in less than two years.

Then we can continue to iterate on the modified yun-5 to stabilize the basic disk, and then we can slowly develop towards business aircraft or small cargo aircraft, and then short-range regional airliners and large passenger aircraft.

What's more, even if we put aside the development line of large passenger aircraft and use the technology of refitting yun-5, Tengfei factory can find a different way of military aircraft on the trainer.

All in all, to give up the fixed goal of refitting yun-5 is to give up the future of the factory. The consequences are so serious that Zhuang Jianye can't afford them. What should he do?

Just bite your teeth and hold on. I don't believe that living people can suffocate their urine.

After making up his mind, Zhuang Jianye finished smoking the rest of the cigarette, and then spit out a long wisp of smoke. Then he put out the cigarette end in the garbage can beside the road: "it's better to go according to the original plan."

"And the plenum?" Asked Lin Guanghua beside him.

"First set up an internal project, and at the same time seek external technical support. I'll think about how to do it when I go back." After hearing this, Lin Guanghua nodded: "OK, let's do it first. Now that it's settled, I'll go to the factory. I have to prepare for the basic test in the afternoon."

"OK, let's communicate in time if there's anything

"Good!" Lin Guanghua nodded and walked quickly towards the test workshop.

Seeing off Lin Guanghua, Zhuang Jianye sighs again. At this moment, he really misses the time when he danced with H company and wolves.

Holding on to the source of UAV manufacturing, H company, the leather bag company, has made a lot of profits as the leader of the transportation company. Unfortunately, H company is always hopping around, and is beaten by its own company. Now it sells itself to GM, and this way to the outside world is completely broken.Of course, Evans and Owen's airline systems are also an external channel. The problem is that Evans and Owen are not as strong and bold as Linderman and Liszt, so it's hard to expect them to have any pioneering feats.

Second, the company is located in the Federal Republic of Germany. Affected by the defeat of World War II, the German aviation industry is heavily controlled by other victorious countries, so the actor aviation system company can not get any strong support at all.

In this way, the external channels are the same as none. As for spending money to buy, Zhuang Jianye didn't even think about it. The materials, equipment and technology, piecemeal together, can directly empty the Tengfei factory.

After thinking for a long time, I didn't find a breakthrough. Zhuang Jianye's head is a little sore.

I simply didn't want to. Then I raised my hand and looked at the old Shanghai brand watch. I found that it was past noon. I felt my stomach growling, so I was ready to go to the canteen for a meal. Then I went back to the office to lie down for a while. Good afternoon, I held a leadership meeting to arrange the production tasks for next month.

Just when Zhuang Jianye was planning to make a good plan, and then turned to a fork in the road toward the canteen, Xiao Zheng, a new assistant who had just been here less than a month, rushed over. Before he could finish breathing, he told Zhuang Jianye an amazing news: "Mr. Zhuang, Mr. Pan of Yuanli factory was cheated by someone and was so angry that he was hospitalized."
