Chapter 1355

Even the domestic counterparts are not optimistic about China's decision to take off, let alone Russia's aviation industry. It's almost like a joke as their spare time conversation.

Even some of the remaining r-79-300 turbofan engine manufacturers in Russia are ready to wait for China's take-off and landing engine to stumble on the road of developing its own VTOL engine. Then they can take advantage of the opportunity to tear a big piece of flesh and blood from China's take-off and landing engine.

The Russians still have enough confidence in this, let alone the Chinese. Even the Americans, who are the world's most powerful in aviation technology, have to come and learn the basic concept and general framework of the r-79-300 turbofan engine?

No way. Who can make the r-79-300 turbofan engine with super thrust, three bearing vectoring nozzle and bypass ratio determined in the Soviet era unique in the world? Since it is unique, it is impossible to surpass. Arrogant Americans have to admit it. How can you Chinese be arrogant?

What's more, the Russians don't know how much weight China has in aeroengines?

Even the basic industrial system was built with the help of the former Soviet Union. Without puckering up, we can know how many pieces of excrement Chinese people can pull, but the estimated quantity is not bad.

For this reason, many Russian friends came to persuade Zhuang Jianye to give up his unrealistic fantasy, including Malinowski, former chief designer of Yakovlev Design Bureau and now chief engineer of the restructured take-off Yakovlev aviation production complex.

For this reason, the Russian old man went all the way from Yekaterinburg to Xingzhou. He earnestly advised Zhuang Jianye not to go to extremes, but to hold his breath and cooperate with the Russian aeroengine industry. After solving the problems, he talked about further development.

Just like the introduction of Su-27 fighter and its supporting al-31 turbofan engine in the early 1990s, China completed the overall localization in a gradual process.

It has to be said that malenowski's opinion is still mature and seeks for the country. After all, compared with blind self-improvement, using r-79-300 turbofan engine is indeed a good choice. Even if it costs high equipment procurement fees and patent fees to Russia's supporting suppliers, it is still very beneficial to domestic equipment development, At the worst, China can also quickly complete the development of VTOL fighter, which provides a highly flexible carrier based aircraft option for the Navy.

From this point of view, money is not a problem at all.

In this regard, Zhuang Jianye expressed his heartfelt thanks to malenowski, and added the title of chief technical adviser of Tengfei group to this 70 year old former Soviet aid expert, which increased malenowski's salary from 4000 US dollars per month to 12000 US dollars per month.

It shows that Zhuang Jianye's thanks are not empty, but even so, Zhuang Jianye still refused malenowski's proposal. It is not that Zhuang Jianye does not want to take a shortcut, but the reality in China does not allow them to take a shortcut.

There's no way. The F-22 of a large foreign country has started trial production of equipment models, and the yf-35 with its high and low matching is also in the process of trial flight. In the future, it will equip the air force, navy and Marine Corps in large quantities, thus forming an absolute generation difference to the whole world.

The r-79-300 turbofan engine certainly has many advantages, but its disadvantages are also very obvious. The most typical one is that the fuel consumption is very high, with an average fuel consumption rate of 0.87. For vertical take-off and landing operations, the fuel consumption rate will soar to an amazing 1.42, which is the fuel tiger of the fuel tigers.

The built-in 6.2 tons of fuel of VTOL can't withstand the consumption of r-79-300 turbofan engine. It's good to reach 800 km, not to mention the combat radius of 1200 km.

Secondly, the dead weight is too large, and the bare weight is more than 2.6 tons, which is too cumbersome for the aeroengine. Even if the thrust is too large, it will have an irreversible impact on the overall structure of the aircraft.

Last but not least, the most critical factor is the extremely low service life. There is no way. The r-79-300 turbofan engine itself is an immature product, and the overall test time is only 1500 hours. Many problems have not yet been improved because of the collapse of the Soviet Union. Under such circumstances, the r-79-300 turbofan engine's service life and safety performance are qualified.

Zhuang Jianye can't use such an engine that can pull the overall performance wildly after it is installed. What's more, the positioning of China's take-off and landing fighter is essentially different from that of the former Soviet Union.

The former Soviet Union did not have a clear positioning for VTOL fighters, just like their poor aircraft carriers, which is why the aircraft carriers of the Soviet Union are more called aircraft cruisers.

Since it's a carrier cruiser, the specific tactical tasks of the aircraft on it are very embarrassing, because there are anti-aircraft missiles on the ship for air defense, supersonic anti-ship missiles for anti-ship, anti submarine helicopters for anti submarine, and fixed wing aircraft. What's the use of them?

Naturally, it's just to do air reconnaissance and expel those small ships that follow behind and spy on reconnaissance planes and bully them with small displacement. In other words, the VTOL fighter of the Soviet Union is an indispensable supplement, and has never been the main force in the front of a large fleet.

Compared with the nearly ambiguous positioning of the Soviet Union, China's take-off and landing fighter's positioning is much clearer. Except for the special mode of vertical take-off and landing, all requirements are designed according to the multi-purpose fighter.

It not only has ultra-low altitude penetration ability, strong anti-ship ground attack ability, but also has extremely strong air combat ability. It can be said that it is a multi-faceted man with balanced comprehensive strength.

It is basically equivalent to the position of the British Air Force's main "harrier" fighter during the naval battle on Ma Dao.

But different from harrier's short legs and low speed, in order to meet the challenges of yf-35 in the future, China Tengfei emphasizes speed and range in VTOL fighter.

In particular, the medium and long-range air raid capability has become the focus of China's take-off and landing fighter.

After all, the future military struggle will focus on the southeast coast, and its focus will not be the struggle for islands, but to prevent the intervention of a foreign power.

Therefore, whether it is equipped with real aircraft carriers or low-cost strategic delivery ships, the Navy should set up a position outside the first island chain before the military struggle in the southeast coast starts. On the one hand, it can deter the intervention strength outside the territory and prevent the careerists from getting hot headed; On the other hand, carrier based aircraft can be used to attack an island from north to south, forcing it to collapse quickly.

To this end, the Navy's plan is to use two large aircraft carriers and heavy carrier based aircraft to carry out anti intervention operations; Three amphibious landing ships cruise with the southwest sea area of an island. As a mobile force, they can not only support the anti intervention of the aircraft carrier formation, but also carry out three-dimensional landing operations on the outside of an island at any time.

However, whether it is support or surprise, a VTOL fighter with enough range is an indispensable necessity.
