Chapter 513

The reason why the air force is so active is, on the one hand, that the articles of authoritative media make the air force, a service closely related to the aviation industry, feel that it should set an example; on the other hand, it is also due to the actual demand of the air force.

The construction achievements of airborne troops under the air force in recent years are obvious to all, especially in all previous exercises and disaster relief operations.

However, although the construction of airborne troops has made progress, the equipment level is still not high, especially in terms of air transport platforms closely related to airborne troops, not to mention compared with superpowers such as the United States and the Soviet Union, or third rate powers such as South Korea and Egypt.

Especially in the aspect of long-range transportation platform, the airborne troops can only be used in small-scale enemy rear raids or in-depth reconnaissance in the form of small units in terms of the composition of domestic armed forces. If the scale is slightly enlarged, they can only be used as light infantry to fill the holes between heavy troops.

It's not that we don't want to turn the airborne troops into the kind of quick reaction forces of the United States and the Soviet Union that come and go like the wind, kill decisively and are as urgent as fire.

The problem is that conditions don't allow it. The models introduced from the Soviet Union in the 1950s and 1960s are gradually aging, while the domestic platforms such as yun-8 and yun-7 have just been finalized, and their own performance is not stable.

More importantly, the flying altitude and range of the two models are not very satisfactory to the airborne soldiers.

We should know that through the practice of disaster relief in southern Tibet, the officers with Zheng Quanli as the core of airborne troops believe that the future construction of airborne troops should not follow the army's supplement and subordination, but should become a highly integrated arms with independent combat capability.

According to this idea, airborne troops should not only shoulder the responsibility of real strategic mobility, but also realize the real-time deployment of the whole territory in China.

In other words, the airborne troops located in the thoroughfare of the nine provinces should not confine their eyes to the narrow depth of about 1000 kilometers, but to the whole country.

They can not only climb mountains in the jungles of the Great Xing'an Mountains, but also walk like flying in the subtropical rainforest on the southwest border; they can land in the sky on the high-altitude snow plateau, and they can also set up an image in the developed urban agglomerations along the southeast coast.

In a word, in a word, airborne soldiers should become true airborne soldiers.

As for Zheng Quanli's advice and appeal, the leaders of the air force headquarters neither fully agreed with him nor killed him with a stick. Instead, they used a way of crossing the river by touching a stone and let the airborne troops try it first.

However, the air force headquarters still supports the problem of airborne air transport platforms. After all, the transport fleet of airborne troops is aging seriously.

With the support of the air force headquarters in terms of equipment, the voice of reform within the airborne troops is growing. Coupled with the catalysis of authoritative media reports, the airborne troops immediately handed over the list of the new generation of light transport aircraft to Tengfei airlines.

Northwest factory is very upset about this. They think yun-8 and yun-7 are the most suitable equipment for airborne soldiers. How can they choose an advanced light transport platform with no drawings and only a concept?

They think that the air force was kidnapped by a report from an authoritative media, and those who jumped up and down went to find a theory.

As a result, without saying a few words, he was pushed back by the chief of airborne troops: "when will your plane be able to carry my soldiers to the Qinghai Tibet plateau?"

On the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, Yun 8 and Yun 7 are not out of order. Ordinary goods are still forced to fly. But if we want to carry large and living people in the past, these two planes can only look at the plateau and sigh.

No way, no airtight equipment, no supercharged cabin, no basic air circulation system and air conditioning system, even the basic oxygen system is not enough. Do you still expect to go to the plateau? At an altitude of five or six kilometers, animals can't stand it, let alone people.

So the northwest factory can only come in high spirits and come back in low spirits. There's no way. Without the diamond in hand, there's no way to take the porcelain work.

In contrast, even if Tengfei Airlines did not cooperate with McDonnell Douglas, they have achieved a breakthrough in supercharged cabin technology in yun-6, and achieved a very brilliant performance in the disaster relief in the southern Tibetan region and the Great Xing'an Mountains.

Therefore, the airborne troops who realize the excellent performance of yun-6 are still looking forward to the advanced light transport platform of Tengfei airlines. Therefore, they hope that Tengfei airlines will provide 20 aircraft in the next five years.

As soon as the news comes out, the navy is the first one who can't sit still. They are waiting for China National Aviation Corporation to completely repair the DC-10, so as to test whether China National Aviation Corporation has the manufacturing capacity of advanced light transport platform.

As a result, an article scolded them for their fluke. At the same time, the air force took advantage of the situation and threw out a large order of 20 aircraft to support the development of high-quality aviation enterprises such as Tengfei airlines and reverse the so-called hot outside and cold inside situation.

Let's not say whether Tengfei airlines can develop an advanced light transport platform, but with this attitude, the air force will be full of praise.

What's more, is it true that Tengfei airlines can't develop an advanced light transport platform? If others don't know, doesn't the Navy know? The DC-10 displayed by McDonnell Douglas in China is lying in a certain naval aviation airport. Tengfei Airlines only replaced its own APU, and the power of the whole aircraft was restored. Its strength has already been revealed.In addition, Tengfei Airlines has been working on UAV and y6 for many years, so the advanced light transport platform is really possible.

With a voyage of more than 5000 kilometers, a maximum load of more than 9 tons, and the equipment in the abdominal box of the 02 antisubmarine aircraft, isn't such a professional antisubmarine patrol aircraft attractive?

The Navy didn't say anything, but it was very honest. So the head of the Navy, in the name of official research, ran to Huancheng after Zhuang Jianye less than a day after he left an airport of the navy air force.

Yes, Zhuang Jianye just left, leaving the DC-10, which weighs more than 100 tons, to lie quietly. As for the reason, it's very simple. Where does the air force actually drop 20 orders, Zhuang Jianye naturally has to give priority to customer demand.

As for the maintenance of DC-10?

Sorry, your materials haven't arrived for a long time, and you can't repair them, so you'd better put them in the back row first.

so Fuchs and Meyers were anxious. DC - 10 did not matter whether they repaired or not. Anyway, they regarded DC - 10 as China's Wutong tree, and expected to fall down on the Phoenix, the Chinese civil aviation force, and let them carry a knife to kill it.

Not only did CAAC not come, but there was a storm of public opinion in China. The momentum was so strong and the progression was so great that even the United States on the other side of the ocean reprinted it one after another, and immediately the spearhead was directed at McDonnell Douglas.

Originally, the reputation of the DC-10 was not very good. This time, the performance machine broke down in China and forced to land, which brought the reputation of the model to the bottom. As a result, McDonnell's CEO was angry, McDonnell's board of directors was angry, and FOSS and miles were finally flustered.
