Chapter 1187

Not only Wahid, but Suharto, who came with him, also showed an incredible look. He immediately asked, "do you have the independent overhaul and maintenance capability of Su-30MKK? This This How is that possible? "

Yes, how is it possible? The Su-30MKK fighter does exist, but the key is that this model is a brand-new model that has just appeared in Russia. There are many countries in the world that have the intention to buy it, but even Russia has not been fully finalized. It's amazing that you Chinese have this fighter, and how can it have the potential Independent overhaul and maintenance capability?

So much so that Suharto has a sense of absurdity, either Gu Jingyou's boasting, or he has a very unreal feeling after several years.

In addition to being shocked, Wahid, like Suharto, had a sense of absurd unreal, even stronger than his deputy to some extent.

The reason is very simple. Wahid is too familiar with the Su-30 model, because he signed the memorandum of purchase of advanced air combat platform between Indonesia and Russia in 1997 on behalf of the Sukhoi aviation production consortium of Indonesia and Russia.

It is expected that by the end of 1999, Russia's Sukhoi aviation production consortium will provide Indonesia with six su-30mks.

The su-30mk and the Su-30MKK have similar performance. The only difference is that the Su-30MKK is a special Chinese version, which has been optimized according to the habits and combat environment of the Chinese air force. The su-30mk is a popular product, and there is no saying that it is specially made.

For example, if Su-30MKK is a small luxury house designed and decorated by itself, then su-30mk is a hardbound house mass produced by the developer.

In addition to the internal style, there is not much difference in essence.

However, this is not the key to the problem. The important factor is that both Su-30MKK and su-30mk were launched in late 1995, officially announced in 1996 and first flew, and delivered to mass production in 1999. Now it is August 1998. How did China get Su-30MKK?

Even Sukhoi has not produced the batch type, how does Tengfei group have its overhaul ability?

In the face of the questioning eyes of Wahid and Suharto, Gu Jingyou is not aware of being seen through at all. He still has a warm smile on his face and explains: "it's just two pre production models tested in our country, which may be far from the maturity of mass production models. These two Su-30MKK pre production models are not mature enough There are many defects. It's a long way to go to the original Russian manufacturer. The efficiency of solving problems there is So in order to save time and cost, the air force simply left it to us. "

As soon as they heard that it was a pre production type, Wahid and Suharto were all relieved. They said that even if there was no mass production type in Russia, how could there be a buyer in China?

If you buy a car, you have to test drive it to feel the basic performance. If you marry a wife, you have to live for a while before marriage to get along with each other. Of course, you have to test things like combat aircraft before batch equipment to see if they are not suitable, so that manufacturers can make more changes.

In fact, it is not only the Chinese air force that is testing the Su-30MKK pre production type, but also the Indonesian air force that is testing the su-30mk fighter they are preparing to buy in their own country.

But at the next moment, Wahid and Suharto, who were relieved, were shocked, because Gu Jingyou's words revealed a very important message, that is, in the face of Su-30MKK's pre production defects, their Tengfei group could completely solve them without the intervention of Russian original manufacturers.

You know, the Su-30MKK is the latest model in the Soviet style series of combat aircraft. On the surface, it looks similar to the Su-27, but in fact, it is quite different internally.

Among other things, Su-27 uses 9% of the steel, while Su-30MKK cancels all the steel and replaces it with Al Li alloy, which is not inferior to steel in strength but lighter in weight. As a result, the proportion of Al Li alloy has increased from 5% of Su-27 to 22% today.

At the same time, the proportion of ordinary aluminum alloy is greatly reduced, and the use of titanium alloy, aluminum lithium alloy and some composite materials is increased.

The change of materials has fundamentally changed all the established modes of Su-30MKK's production, manufacturing and technology, which is why the western aviation critics will give Su-30MKK a perfect or super lateral evaluation.

Because Su-30MKK fundamentally changed Su-27's stubborn disease of low fatigue strength and short service life.

But it also shows from another angle that the Su-30 series combat aircraft have very advanced technology and superb manufacturing technology. It is not the Su-27 assembly capability that manufacturers can have the Su-30 technology, because apart from the physical similarity, the soul of the two aircraft is already two different aircraft.Because of this, it is impossible to use Su-27's experience to set up Su-30.

Apart from other things, Indonesia wants to deal with the pre production su-30mk that they are responsible for testing in their national aviation industry group. There is no way. China is too far away from the original Russian manufacturer, and Indonesia is too far away.

Not to mention that every time Russia's Sukhoi aviation consortium offers an amazing price for improvement and maintenance, even if the contract says that the pre production type is free of warranty, the Sukhoi aviation consortium will ask for money as much as it wants.

Just like automobile 4S stores, free warranty only exists in theory, and the technicians in charge of maintenance can always find profit growth points beyond the scope of maintenance.

So Indonesia is just like putting aside Sukhoi and dealing with some small problems at home.

In any case, there are many countries equipped with the Soviet style series of combat aircraft, among which Ukraine is the best. In the Soviet era, two aircraft repair factories were built in Ukraine, which not only can overhaul and maintain the Soviet style series of combat aircraft, but also big guys like Tu-160.

As a result, Indonesia soon colluded with Ukraine and introduced a number of equipment and experts. As a result, everything was ready, but Dongfeng did not come at all. The reason is very simple. The internal situation of Su-30 and Su-27 was completely different. Ukrainian experts were confused one by one. Indonesia finally had to admit it and continue to send the pre production Su-30 to Russia Take care of it.

I have a lesson to learn from the past. Naturally, I understand the question. So when Gu Jingyou said some small problems on the Su-30MKK that they could solve easily, both Wahid and Suharto were really surprised. After a long time of stupefaction, Wahid opened his eyes and looked at Gu Jingyou with an incredible face: "Mr. Gu, do you mean that you have already finished Can solve most of the problems of Su-30MKK? "

Gu Jingyou nodded and said modestly, "it's OK. Anyway, the Su-30MKK's interior is not too sophisticated. Tengfei group can barely do it."
