Chapter 1203 Power Is Not a Problem

Li Zhongyi certainly heard what Chang Haonan said.

However, he suddenly felt a little dazed.

So much so that he forgot to react for a moment.

For a moment, Li Zhongyi even felt as if he had returned to his student days decades ago.

And the well-organized table in front of him was the key points that the teacher had drawn for everyone before the final exam.

Although you still have to learn after knowing the key points, and you may not be able to learn them immediately.

But as long as you use this as an outline to review, at least in terms of direction, you will definitely not go wrong.

After the daze, Li Zhongyi lowered his head again and scanned the 80 technical items densely written on the paper.

This time, he looked at it with an eye of scrutiny and analysis.

"This list... is of great significance."

He took a deep breath slowly, and said in a serious tone:

"We will organize research as soon as possible and come up with a practical research plan to ensure the smooth development of the fourth-generation aircraft engine!"

When he spoke this time, Li Zhongyi even felt a little more pressure on his back.

He didn't know much about aerospace, but there were always some similarities between science and engineering.

For technologies like "wear-resistant and high-temperature resistant ceramic coating" or "non-steady adhesive full three-dimensional design", even from the perspective of an engineer from the petroleum system, it is not difficult to find application scenarios in other fields.

In other words, the value of this list is not only to provide the development direction of China's aerospace industry for at least the next 20 years.

It even has a considerable driving effect on the development of the entire industry.

Li Zhongyi had only heard of this kind of scene from his predecessors in the past -

When the founding of the People's Republic of China was in ruins...

But the Industrial Construction Commission is not the National Defense Science and Technology Commission that literally governed everything back then. Now many things can no longer be implemented by simple administrative orders, but can only be encouraged by resources and policy tilts.

This is a test of the way of working.

If it is just a simple money-spending, then many long-term clean government offices may have negative effects when they suddenly obtain a large amount of freely disposable resources...

Chang Haonan, who was leaning against the window, looked at Li Zhongyi, whose face was mixed with joy and worry, and it was not difficult to guess that the other party should be thinking about specific implementation issues.

However, he was only a consultant to the Construction Committee, and it was better to leave such administrative matters to professionals...

"Then Director Li, the following matters will be left to you to worry about."

Chang Haonan was not going to waste time here any more, so he returned to the sofa, picked up his coat and briefcase and prepared to leave.

"Hmm..."

Li Zhongyi had not yet fully recovered from his thoughts. He nodded subconsciously, but immediately stopped Chang Haonan who had already turned around:

"Wait a minute... I was shocked by your list of 80 items just now, and almost forgot it."

He stood up and searched for a while on the bookshelf behind him.

Finally, he took out a file box:

"Although you have been well prepared, this is a summary of the situation submitted by the Aviation Industry Corporation a few days ago. I should still show it to you before the meeting..."

...

Although the fourth-generation fighter in China has not been officially established, the pre-research work has been carried out for more than ten years, so even after being refined, the content summarized is not small.

Chang Haonan spent four days reading all of them, and then went to the meeting with a PPT of only two pages.

Because it is far from entering the formal project approval process, although this meeting is of high standards, it is not particularly solemn and serious in form.

Overall, it is a bit like the aviation engine industry conference held by Chang Haonan eight years ago.

However, the aviation engine industry at that time only had the turbofan 10, and Chang Haonan, as the biggest contributor to the revitalization of the turbojet 14, can almost say that he has the final say.

As for the fourth-generation fighter, each main engine manufacturer has been preparing for many years, and no one can easily give up this initiative.

So, although before the official start, the scene was still harmonious.

But the smell of gunpowder in the air was something that anyone could feel.

In fact, Chang Haonan got up early that day and arrived at the venue nearly an hour in advance.

But when he looked at the nameplates on the first few rows of tables at the door, he realized that many of the people attending today were his acquaintances.

If you enter the venue too early, you will inevitably be dragged to talk for a long time.

If it is just a normal private communication between acquaintances, it is fine.

But in the eyes of others, the time spent on contacting each factory representative, as well as the demeanor and other details, will inevitably become a signal of expressing support or opposition.

If this affects the final result, it will be a bit bad.

Just when he was hesitating, Song Jiaxiang followed him from behind.

After a few pleasantries, he pulled him aside and said in a somewhat sneaky way:

"Academician Chang, the venue is still being set up. Could you please go to the lounge next door to rest for a while... and then come in when the meeting is about to start?"

That being said, it was not difficult for Chang Haonan to see that the other party was actually worried about the same thing as himself.

"It seems that being too famous is not necessarily a good thing sometimes..."

He silently sighed in his heart that people in the world cannot help themselves, and then walked to the next door with Song Jiaxiang.

It was not until three minutes before the meeting started that he deliberately pretended to be in a hurry and appeared at the special guest table carrying a briefcase.

As expected, all the old guys who were familiar with him, such as Sun Cong, Yang Wei, Sun Huizhong, etc., their eyes lit up almost at the same time, and some of them even wanted to get up immediately.

I just gave up after looking at the leaders sitting on the podium and the meeting time that was about to start.

"...First of all, it is the efforts that all comrades have made that enable us to hold this meeting today. On behalf of the group leaders, I would like to express my respect and gratitude to everyone..."

Song Jiaxiang, who presided over the meeting, made a simple opening statement, which attracted a burst of applause from the audience.

He raised a hand and pressed it down slightly, and the venue quickly returned to silence:

"The people attending the meeting today are all our technical experts, so I won't go into too much red tape. Next, Comrade Lu Guang from the Air Force Equipment Research Institute will introduce to you the aviation force's requirements for the performance factors of fourth-generation fighter jets. Analysis and requirements…”

"..."

In fact, what Lu Guang said was similar to what Song Jiaxiang summarized and refined before, which was to rank the typical performances that fourth-generation fighters should have in order of importance.

Of course, there will definitely be more specific needs at the user level.

But it needs to be left to subsequent discussions and even the project establishment stage.

Now these are basic principles.

For example, the Air Force has made it clear that it focuses on forward stealth capabilities and supersonic performance.

Then you definitely can't come up with an abstract plan of forward-swept wings or half-buried bombs.

In fact, most of the people within the Aviation Industry Group already knew everything in advance, and now they just confirmed it again on a formal occasion.

But Chang Haonan listened with interest.

Although the Air Force also participated in the selection in 2007 in the previous life, it was essentially led by the developer.

Now, users have clearly put forward specific indicators such as "When facing enemy airborne radar in the front hemisphere, the distance between detection and locking is shortened by more than three-quarters compared to existing models."

Therefore, there may be some differences in the plans that are put on the table for discussion.

Let’s not mention the plan that eventually developed into the J-20. At least the three-wing route of the 601 was definitely unworkable from the beginning.

What's more, China's current technological accumulation in the aviation industry is far from comparable to the original timeline.

Thinking of this, Chang Haonan lowered his head slightly and looked at the PPT on his computer desktop——

The contents there may add to the intensity of this meeting...

According to the agenda, after Lu Guang's introduction, it will be Chang Haonan's turn to speak.

After all, there are many design options for the aircraft itself.

But there is only one kind of power that can be used.

It must be regarded as a known condition, so that everyone can figure it out first.

"Almost all of you have participated in the research and development of third-generation fighter jets, so I won't go too far."

When Chang Haonan opened the PPT, some sharp-eyed people noticed that the thumbnails on the left actually only had two pages.

"In view of the basic technical requirements put forward by Comrade Lu Guang just now, I summarize the power plant of the fourth-generation fighter aircraft into four 'natures' and three 'capabilities'."

He said and opened the first page of PPT:

"The first is technological advancement, that is, the unit thrust is large, and the thrust-to-weight ratio is at level 10; the second is the simplicity of the structure, with fewer parts in the entire machine structure, making it easy to produce and maintain; the third is durability, from the design of parts to the complete machine All fully consider reliability and long service life, and plan to allow the first overhaul time to exceed the 2,500-hour mark; fourth, maintainability, reducing the number of necessary maintenance times, personnel and working hours..."

"The three capabilities refer to optimizing the supersonic thrust curve to allow the aircraft to obtain supersonic cruise capabilities, strengthening the tail infrared stealth and frontal radar stealth capabilities, and cooperating with flight control R&D units to achieve vector thrust capabilities..."

Chang Haonan raised his head and slowly glanced at the attendees in front of him:

“This time, I can definitely guarantee that starting from the program selection stage, we no longer need to compromise for the power level of the aircraft as we did in the past.”

"So, please do your best!"
