Reborn 80s

In addition to civilian transport aircraft such as the MT400 transport aircraft, Xidu Mota also has an extremely important business, which is military aircraft.

Xidu Mota's representative work in the field of military transport aircraft is the Kunpeng transport aircraft, which is numbered Y-20 transport aircraft in the army.

Military transport aircraft and civilian transport aircraft are completely different concepts, and there are considerable differences in design ideas.

The MT400 transport aircraft has requirements for take-off and landing airports, and they are quite high.

Speaking of runway length, the runways used by civil aircraft to take off and land are relatively long.

Civilian aircraft pursue absolute safety and will not engage in anything difficult.

But military aircraft are different.

But if a war breaks out, airports will be the first targets to be attacked, especially military airports.

Therefore, although military aircraft no longer take off and land on mud, they must have the ability to take off and land on mud.

I don’t usually use it, but I can’t say I won’t.

At a critical moment of life and death, these seemingly useless abilities can save lives.

A very important reason why Xidu Mota has been able to maintain profitability in the past few years is that the army has continued to purchase Kunpeng transport aircraft.

Xidu Mota is also constantly improving the Kunpeng transport aircraft, such as applying stealth coatings on the transport aircraft.

I dare not say that it is completely invisible to radar, but it is still no problem to deceive some radars.

With high-power radar, there is nothing you can do.

In fact, stealth aircraft around the world cannot achieve stealth in the face of high-power radar.

However, once you see it, you have seen it, and it is not that easy to defeat it.

After all, stealth aircraft are the most advanced and fly extremely fast.

Xidu Mota is also working on another aircraft, that is the bomber!

The H-6 was originally produced by Xidu Aircraft Manufacturing Factory. After the establishment of Xidu Mota, the H-6 was naturally inherited by Xidu Mota.

Xidu Mota's goal is extremely ambitious, and he wants to develop a supersonic bomber.

Across the world, there are many countries with bombers in service.

However, there are currently only three countries that actually have bombers on them.

That is, they can produce their own bombers.

Northern Russia, the United States and China.

China also only has medium bombers, but it does not have strategic bombers yet.

While Xidu Mota is improving the H-6, it also needs to develop a strategic bomber.

Xidu Motako bought a Tu-160 supersonic bomber from Ukraine and came back to study it.

The Tu-160 was developed by the former Alliance in the 1970s. The prototype first flew in the early 1980s and was equipped in 1987.

It was planned to produce 100 aircraft, but the former alliance disappeared into history, and the production plan naturally disappeared.

A total of 25 aircraft were produced, 19 of which were produced in Ukraine.

Wulanke was in a mess, and it was quite simple for Xidu Mota to buy one.

In order to repay North Russia's foreign debt, Ukraine gave 8 Tu-160s to North Russia in 1999.

From 19 to 8, where did the other planes go?

It was demolished and sold!

As a supersonic strategic bomber, the Tu-160 has a high technical content, which goes without saying.

The higher the technical content, the higher the cost of using it!

If you fly for an hour, you will need to spend dozens of times of man-hours on maintenance.

Moreover, the annual maintenance cost of a Tu-160 is US$1.6 million.

Moreover, the Tu-160 was produced by the former alliance industrial system, and now the entire industrial production system has collapsed.

Although Ukraine inherited the weapons and equipment from the former alliance, its military strength became the third in the world in theory, but its economy simply cannot afford it.

Not only can the economy not afford it, but its entire talent system, management system, and even cultural system, etc., cannot afford to be ranked third in the world.

What's the saying?

If virtue is not matched, there will be disaster.

Really, Ulanke gave a complete performance.

Xidu Mota spent money to buy a lot of good things over in Ulank.

Chen Huaiqing especially likes countries like Ukraine, where you can do anything with money.

If Xidu Mota has the current strength and dares to develop a supersonic strategic bomber, it must be thanks to Ulank.

Although this all costs money, I still have to thank you.

Thank you for rotten to the root.

Of course, these purchases were basically made during the period when the former alliance had just disintegrated.

At that time, there was total chaos.

Chaos is good, and you can fish in troubled waters.

Chen Huaiqing only took a brief look at the supersonic bomber. The prototype has already begun to be manufactured and is expected to conduct a test flight next year.

Supersonic bombers are particularly technically difficult. Even if North Russia has a complete set of blueprints and many original R&D personnel and technical workers, it still took several years to resume production of the Tu-160.

There is no problem with production, but it is no longer possible for North Russia to upgrade supersonic bombers.

Because North Russia has lost half of its scientific researchers and technicians, the entire system has been greatly affected.

It is obviously impossible to recover without twenty or thirty years.

In terms of project research and development progress, Chen Huaiqing does not think it is slow.

Because this project is a secret project, all technologies of the entire aircraft need to be mastered by oneself.

And, not only do you need to know how to make it, you also need to know why!

Only when you know why can you truly master it.

Only by understanding the principles can we make various improvements and develop the next generation supersonic strategic bomber.

Even developing a supersonic strategic bomber!

Of course, if you want to develop the next generation, you still have to make progress in technology.

But the current aero-engine technology, in terms of performance, has gradually approached the top of what humans can achieve to a certain extent.

Or, it should be the pinnacle of performance for this type of engine.

In the outside world, there are rumors that Xidu Mota is developing a new bomber.

This thing is also normal.

After all, there is a H-6 in Mota, Xidu. The old H-6 cannot meet the needs of modern warfare. Anyone with a little bit of military knowledge knows this.

Therefore, it is a normal operation to improve the H-6.

As for the development of supersonic strategic bombers, basically no one can think of it.

Xidu Mota will not publicize it to the outside world. We will wait until the stuff comes out and then we will talk about it.

Supersonic strategic bombers are too sensitive. Once two countries know that Xidu Mota is developing them, they will definitely not be able to sleep well.

Therefore, we should be good people and let people sleep well for a while.

The prototype will be manufactured next year and will definitely undergo test flights by then. It will be impossible to hide it.

A lot of military equipment is first exposed by foreign media, and then the Chinese people know about it.

This does not mean that we deliberately hide it from the Chinese people.

Instead, spies stole our confidential equipment information.

How can we show off the important weapons of our country to others so easily?
