Chapter 1137

It's no wonder that these big leaders will be like this. It's really strange to see the scene staged in the No. 6 airport of J city. The transport plane No. 63217 belonging to the "golden helmet" unit at the end of the runway was cut a hole in the tail of the body by the ground crew.

You know, it's a plane. It's worth 850 million yuan. The ground officers and soldiers of the "golden helmet" army actually made a hole in such an expensive thing.

What's more, they are very simple and crude. They don't have any special tools, so they just take two electric drills to drill them.

Let's not say whether this will damage the overall structure of the aircraft and affect flight safety. Even if it's OK, it's too much fun to hold an electric drill. After all, it's 850 million.

"Comrade Wei Dong, you are..." The leader of the army looked at the picture on the screen and asked.

At this time, Xue Weidong also realized that there might be other big leaders with the same level around the big leaders in the army. After all, the person who just ordered to connect the signal was not the big leader in the army, so Xue Weidong's answer was even more consistent: "report to the old chief, what we are installing is the" fast shooter "type 6 fast aerial refueling module, yun-18nb, produced by Tengfei group The biggest feature of the transport aircraft is that the function of the aerial refueling machine has been taken into account in the initial design, so all functions of aerial refueling have been arranged in the whole transport aircraft, and the interface of aerial refueling equipment has been reserved.

Two of them are located on the outside of the wing, and can be installed with "fast gunner" 3 aerial refueling components respectively, which can achieve 1500 liters per minute aerial refueling output. One is located at the rear of the body, which can achieve 2250 liters per minute aerial refueling output.

Now we have installed the "fast gunner" 6 fast aerial refueling module mainly to refuel the yun-18nb transport aircraft that has just completed the aerial refueling task for the helicopter troops

"Come on, partner?" The big leaders in the army were even more shocked.

Other people don't know what partner refueling is, but he does. The activity of a model carrying in-flight refueling equipment to carry out in-flight refueling for the same model is called partner refueling.

This kind of aerial refueling is generally used in carrier based aircraft, but other types of aircraft also have applications.

But whether it's carrier based aircraft or other types of aircraft, these are not important to the military leaders, because what shocked him is not this at all, but that the yun-18nb transport aircraft has the function of receiving oil in the air.

It's amazing.

The T-72 tank with a load of 41 tons of the former yun-18nb transport plane was unable to carry out long-distance transport mission. The main reason was that the cargo load could not avoid occupying the fuel load, resulting in the inability to carry out long-distance flight.

However, all this will be solved as yun-18nb has the ability to receive oil in the air.

After carrying the T-72 tank, does the range shrink?

After flying up, let the wet nurse give you a few mouthfuls of hot milk, not to fly where you want to fly?

In this way, yun-18nb transport aircraft will be upgraded from a medium-sized transport aircraft with good performance to a strategic transport aircraft with strong comprehensive carrying capacity.

Strategic transport!

This is of great significance to the current air force and even the whole army.

How can the military leaders who want to understand the key point not be shocked?

However, when the military leader calmed down his excitement and was ready to learn more about the refitting of the yun-18nb transport plane into a fuel dispenser, a leader next to him suddenly took out a document and pointed to one of the words for him to read.

It's OK that the leader of the army didn't look at it. As soon as he looked at it, his eyes immediately widened, so he said to Xue Weidong on the other end of the phone without hesitation: "Comrade Weidong, thank you for your introduction. I wish you a happy work. Goodbye!"

Voice did not fall, then hung up the phone in a hurry.

Xue Weidong, who is preparing to report in detail the specific parameters of the refueling mode of the yun-18nb transport plane, is at a loss. However, what Xue Weidong does not know is that the reason why the military leaders hang up the phone is that the leaders next to him have shown him a terrible report.

The title is "report on the development planning of bombers with the ability to receive oil in the air and to mount long-range missiles"

the report is an important report that was formulated by Northwest Airlines, jointly signed by Tengfei group, transferred by the air force and submitted by the headquarters as a supplementary plan of the "killer mace" project last month.

It was supposed to be discussed at a regular meeting this month.

However, due to the big differences among the major leaders in the early stage, the main reason is that most of the major leaders feel that the feasibility of this project is not high. The most important one is that the bombers, which are the heavyweights with huge fuel carrying capacity, have to use how many air tankers to feed them?

At least the former Soviet Union's IL-78 air tanker is barely enough.

That's all. What's more important is that one or two of these tankers are not enough. At least 15 to 30 tankers are needed to meet the needs of 45 such bombers in three regiments. Under the condition of ensuring 75% attendance rate, the combat readiness duty task of 24-hour all-weather and all year round can be realized.Let's not talk about the cost of such bombers, nor the cost of air launched long-range ballistic missiles equipped with such bombers, let's say that the price of at least 15 special aircraft of the IL-78 air tanker class is not a decimal.

You should know that the Russian's second-hand Il-76 offer is really not high, but the IL-78 air tanker with in-flight refueling function is different. The price is rolling up, shouting $387 million directly, and refusing to make a counter-offer.

15 is $5.805 billion!

More than 45 billion yuan.

Up to now, the total investment of the whole "killer mace" project is less than 120 billion yuan, and it belongs to the next generation combat aircraft and anti-ship ballistic missile.

Each project has less than 60 billion yuan of investment.

45 billion, almost can start a new "killer mace" sub project, the result is only a piece of a large jigsaw puzzle, who can bear it.

Therefore, there is no need to discuss it. The vast majority of the major leaders, including the military leaders, disagree greatly with the report.

However, with the excellent performance of the yun-18nb transport aircraft, it immediately became different, just like the words that the military leaders saw at this moment.

"In terms of aerial refueling, we have successively verified the rapid refueling capability, aerial refueling capability, and other supporting flight training and ground support capabilities by using our self-developed platform."

There's nothing wrong with this. At most, it means that the army and scientific research institutions have made great strides and achieved fruitful technological accumulation. As for other things, there seems to be nothing outstanding.

However, when the figure of yun-18nb transport plane slowly overlaps with the so-called self research platform, the meaning will be drawn to infinite height immediately after reading this passage again.

It has the ability to quickly refit and refuel in the air. It also has a fast refuelling device and the function of receiving fuel in the air. In line with last month's report, the leaders of the army really took a breath of cool air.

Yun-18nb transport aircraft, where is the tanker and transport aircraft, is clearly the new bomber verification aircraft!
