Chapter 1135 Resolutely Don't Give the Woolly Bear a Chance to Insert a Foot (Three Watches, Three Watches)
Lin Hongfei is so familiar with this engine, because this engine is the same as the aircraft that uses this engine...... Sad.
That's right, that plane is the L-15 "Falcon" advanced trainer that claims to be able to sell at least 200 units, but this tragic high-level training aircraft that has developed into an ultra-light fighter, carrier-based fighter trainer and light attack aircraft, as of Lin Hongfei's return, only 6 units were finally sold.
The engine for L-15 is now Zaporosh Progressive Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, but at that time people have changed their name, called Madasic Company, at that time Madasic Company ambitiously shouted out that the "AI-222-25" series of low-thrust turbofan engines can achieve the sales target of 300 to 500 units, but sadly, in the end, only more than 10 units were sold, and even the R & D costs were not recovered.
Of course, such a low sales performance is not that the AI-222-25 series engines are bad, but that Da Mao is making it bad: the AI-222-25 series engines are stuck in the neck by Da Mao.
Although the AI-222-25 series of small and medium-thrust turbofan engines are designed and manufactured by the Zaporosh Progressive Machine-Building Bureau, Ukraine is only able to produce 60% of the parts and components, 35% of the parts and components are produced by the Moscow Salute Machine-Building Complex, and the remaining 5% is provided by the Russian Omsk Baranov Engine-Building Complex, since Ukraine has a full 40% of the parts and components that cannot be produced by itself, Then it is natural to be held by Da Mao on this project.
But...... The AI-222-25 turbofan engine is the most advanced engine for today's business jets: the British Rohr. The RRAE3007C1/C2 series engine of Sroyce Company is also excellent small and medium-thrust turbofan engine, and a series of models developed on the basis of AI-222-25: low-thrust plate AI-222-22 with a thrust of 2156 kg, the standard version of AI-222-25 with a thrust of 2451 kg, and the reinforced small bypass ratio with a thrust of 2744 kg AI-222-28, The inexpensive military AI-222-25KFK with a short afterburner with a thrust of 3,010 kg, the standard military afterburner AI-222-25F with a thrust of 4,118 kg, and the AI-222K-40, which is said to be the strongest civilian with a thrust of 3,920 kg......
This is a complete engine sequence developed on the basis of a core machine, and it is just a matter of not having a chance to catch it. Now that this "ginseng doll" actually took the initiative to send it to the door, how could he let it go? Missing this opportunity, Boss Lin felt that he would never fly in the future...... It will be struck by thunder from the sky.
"Civilian models can be shared with patents, but military models can only belong to us in Ukraine," since he knows the potential of this engine and the prospects of this engine, Lin Hongfei will naturally not let go of this opportunity to sharpen his knife to pigs and sheep, "Mr. Pavel may know that I was born in a military family and grew up in the family compound of the army, but Mr. Pavel definitely doesn't know the way." I am very interested in aero engines, I know that our country has developed its own medium-power turboprop engine on the basis of AI-22/25, and I know that if we want to develop a new turbofan engine on the basis of the core engine of this engine, Ukraine will not be able to produce all the parts and components on its own, and it will have to turn to the Moscow Salyut Machine-Building Complex and the Russian Omsk Baranov Engine Production Complex......"
Speaking of which. Lin Hongfei spread out his hands and looked directly at Ping Pavel. "Mr. Pavel. You see, when the time comes, the Moscow Salyut Machine-Building Complex and the Omsk Baranov Engine-Producing Complex will definitely make some excessive demands on this engine, you know what damned Slavs do, if you don't meet their demands, they will deliberately pull you back, if you meet their demands. They're going to make new demands, they're just a bunch of bastards with no integrity at all! ”
"But working with us is different, you know, I've invested in a $650 million aerospace manufacturing group. Our production equipment is enough to ensure that as long as you can design it, we can produce it......"
"But there are a lot of special materials that you can't solve......"
Pavel was a little moved, but he still insisted on it...... It's not that it's just a hard mouth, because the Zaporosh Progressive Machine-Building Bureau handed over 40% of the parts and components to the damn Da Mao for production, just because they can't produce these things themselves, they don't master the processing technology of some parts, and they can't produce some core parts and materials, which is also the Zaporosh Progressive Machine Manufacturing Bureau and Ukraine's most feared about Da Mao: Although Ukraine is now independent, in many places, even core industries, Ukraine is still controlled by Da Mao.
This was a small measure used by the Slavs in Moscow to control the republics, but at this time, these small measures exerted great power: even if the Soviet Union had collapsed, Da Mao could still influence the republics of the Soviet Union in this way...... Obedient or not? If you are disobedient, even if you have good things, you can't make them or sell them!
"This is not a problem, our company was previously ...... from Russia Well, we have acquired a large number of materials research materials, we will also spend a lot of money to study the relevant production process, purchase production equipment, and most importantly, our company has reached a cooperation agreement with our country's largest scientific research institution: the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the two sides will carry out all-round cooperation in materials, and our company has even made breakthroughs in titanium alloy materials......" Speaking of this, Lin Hongfei looked at Pavel with a smile, "Now we want money and money, someone has someone, Mr. Pavel, What else do you have to worry about? Could it be that after all this support, you are still afraid of the pressure that the Russians will put on you? ”
"Okay, Lin, you won......" Pavel smiled bitterly, "but I don't care about this matter, I need to report this matter to our government, you should understand." This kind of thing has to be approved by the government. ”
"Of course," Lin Hongfei nodded, of course he knew that this kind of thing that could almost be equated with military cooperation, or that it was military cooperation at all, of course, had to be approved by the government, but he did not forget to solemnly warn Pavel, "Mr. Pavel, I understand what you and your government are doing, but what I must say is that I absolutely do not accept the shadow of Russia in this cooperation, whether it is the Moscow Salyut Machinery Manufacturing Complex or the Russian Omsk Baranov Engine Production Complex." Or any other Russian enterprise, as soon as they appear, our cooperation will be terminated immediately, and you can consider that this is the final decision of our Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Company, and there will never be the slightest room for revision...... You have three days to discuss this matter. If there is no result after three days, I will automatically assume that you have abandoned this cooperation. ”
Lin Hongfei's approach obviously has the flavor of persecution on the Ukrainian government. But he really couldn't help it. There is too little time left for himself, he is not willing to put more energy into endless, since he is not willing to ruffle, and he has the dollar that Ukrainians need the most, then the best way is to be strong...... Even if it's a bad feeling.
"I ......" Pavel looked confused, he really couldn't understand why Lin Hongfei was so wary of the Russians.
Of course. Ukrainians are also very wary of Russians, but no matter how vigilant they are, they are not vigilant to this part, but there is no way, Lin Hongfei is a big boss who pays money. Even if Ukraine has skills, and the rich boss is not willing to have one more partner, it is the freedom of others, and he really can't control it...... From the Ukrainian side's point of view, the demand for turbofan engines with small and medium thrust is actually not strong in the Guzi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., which also greatly reduces the bargaining room of the Ukrainian side.
Lin Hongfei didn't care what Pavel thought, he still had a question, "The last question, what is me?" ”
"Because of all the foreign companies that deal with us in Ukraine, your company is the only one that has achieved a 'win-win' situation...... Although you still took a lot of it, after all, it also left us a lot," Speaking of this, Pavel's tone was a little sad, "It can be predicted that for a long time in the future, the military industry, especially the aviation manufacturing industry, will be the pillar industry of our Ukraine, but if there is no capital investment, no one will invest in this industry, and this pillar of Ukraine will be broken...... We must do as much as possible for the continuation of the aviation industry in Ukraine, and with you, at least we can keep hope. ”
"I didn't expect what I was doing to be so meaningful, so you must be very grateful to me, right? Since that's ......" Lin Hongfei shrugged, not knowing whether Lu Dao was joking or serious, and said to Pavel, "Then you can give me the patent for the D-18T turbofan engine." ”
D-18T is one of the only turbofan engines with a thrust of 200 kN to 250 kN in the world today, and the super engine with a thrust between 200 kN and 250 kN is an indispensable power for military large strategic transport aircraft and large civil transport aircraft, and the unit price is not less than 15 million US dollars, and the unit price of the same type engine of General Electric Company is even as high as 20 million US dollars.
This kind of thrust in 200 kN to 250 kN high-thrust aero engine is known as the most brilliant diamond in the crown of a country's aviation industry, the high content of science and technology, so that small and medium-sized countries do not even think about the production of this kind of thought, the world can produce this kind of high-thrust engine only the United Nations five hooligans among the boss of the second and third, the fourth and fifth are only to watch.
Ukraine is able to produce D-18T, and although more than 50% of the parts and components need to be supplied by Russian companies, this is good enough, because Ukraine holds the D-18T patent...... It's okay if I can't produce it, but I have a patent.
Mao Xiong dared to design such awesome transport planes as An-124 and An-225, because they had D-18T in their hands, which is a top-level strategic material for any country, and it is impossible to export.
Pavel obviously didn't expect Lin Hongfei's appetite to be so big, he opened his mouth to ask for his own country's things, he was stunned in disbelief for a moment, and then shook his head desperately, "That's impossible!" When pigs fly! D-18T is our national treasure of Ukraine, we will never sell this patent, Mr. Lin, I'm sorry, although I don't want to say this to you, but I still advise you to dismiss this idea. ”
"An engine with poor maintainability, economy, safety and other indicators that lack competitiveness and a relatively short life is still a treasure for you," Lin Hongfei pouted, "How competitive is your D-18T with Pratt & Whitney's PWJT9D-7 series, GE's GECF6-45 to GECF6-80 series and Rolls-Royce's RRRB211524/525 series?" ”
That is to say, but Lin Hongfei's words are inevitably a little sour, because none of these aero-powered monsters can be produced by the Republic, even the slightly inferior General Electric's TF39-GE-1C, a 190-kN-level high-thrust turbofan engine, cannot be produced by the Republic.
"Yes, our D-18T really can't be compared with those engines, maintainability, economy and safety, life and other indicators have a gap with our peers, but our engines are cheap," Pavel sprinkled a handful of salt on Lin Hongfei's wounds, "Lin, if you want, I can call the shots, as long as you want more than 20 units, I can give you an ultra-low price of 5 million US dollars, the engines you said are good, But the price of one engine of the same thrust from those engine manufacturers can buy us four D-18T, and if you count it on your fingers, it is actually more cost-effective for our D-18T...... Mr. Lin, would you like to come to 20 units first? ”
"I'll do it!" Lin Hongfei puffed back Pavel's middle finger!
But let's be honest, if it's $5 million...... Lin Hongfei was really moved: when the market price was generally between 15 million US dollars and 20 million US dollars, the ultra-low price of the engine with the same thrust was only 5 million US dollars, which was really equivalent to the price of cabbage.
