The next morning, Shen Huan and the others also came to the opening ceremony early, and today's opening ceremony cannot be missed, because there are delegations from many countries will come, and of course, important big figures will appear.
After the grand opening ceremony, the guests walked towards the exhibition hall.
Shen Huan and others also followed the flow of people to the exhibition hall, this time the exhibition area is one-third larger than the last time, attracting more than 300 manufacturers, it is indeed very exciting, what new models will appear?
Guests are also looking for their own goals, businessmen are looking for business opportunities, journalists are looking for news materials, and experts are of course looking for new technologies and new products.
In the first few days, ordinary visitors were not allowed to enter, because the practice of the Zhuhai Air Show was that the first few days were professional days, and only the last three days were public days.
When Shen Huan and Liu Yulong and others came to the booth of the factory consortium composed of 611 and 132 factories, Shen Huan saw Chief Engineer Yang Wei at a glance, at this time Chief Engineer Yang Wei was being interviewed by reporters, it was obvious that the reporters were very interested in the aircraft model named FC1 on the booth, and at this time Chief Engineer Yang Wei was answering reporters about some information about this aircraft.
Of course, the FC1 aircraft is the Thunder, and the F7MF aircraft is not strictly designed by 611, but by the design office of 132 Factory, but also has the technical guidance of 611.
This relationship is similar to the relationship between China Shipbuilding Industry 701 and China Shipbuilding Industry Dalian Shipyard Technology Center.
In fact, the J-7 MF is a simple foreign trade project, but in Shen Huan's opinion, it is a pity that this aircraft was stillborn in the end.
Of course, the Chinese Air Force must not look down on it, because the Chinese Air Force does not even look at the Thunder, after all, there is already a J-10 at this time, and there is also a domestic J-11, whether it is the Thunder Dragon or the J-7 MF in terms of performance, it is still a big difference between the third-generation aircraft.
However, for foreign trade, it is still a very good product, but unfortunately there is no foreign army to look at, in fact, this J-7 MF is very suitable for the air forces of those small countries, because they do not need a large range like J-11 or J-10, and the maximum range of J-7 MF 2,600 kilometers is more than enough.
As early as two years ago, the FC1 fighter development agreement was signed, and Pakistan Railway invested 50 percent, and Shen Huan remembered that in a few months, the full-scale metal prototype would be off the assembly line.
Therefore, at this time, the air show is also to attract more customers, because the cost of any aircraft will be reduced only if the sales volume is larger.
The chief designer of the FC1 Thunder Dragon fighter is none other than Yang Wei, who is 37 years old at this time, and is already the deputy director and deputy chief designer of 611, and will soon serve as the chief engineer of 611.
Shen Huan admired this young chief teacher very much in his heart, but Shen Huan was actually no worse than Chief Master Yang Wei at the age of twenty-five?
In terms of level, Shen Huan is now the assistant director of the Technology Innovation Center of the Engineering Research Institute under the China Shipbuilding Industry Group, and the Engineering Research Institute is at the same level as 611.
Chief Yang Wei also saw Shen Huan's figure, so he quickly ended his interaction with the reporter, and then said to Shen Huan: "Shen Gong, you're here too, it's really good!"
” Shen Huan stepped forward and hurriedly made an introduction, Liu Yulong also held Yang Wei's hand tightly and said: "I have long heard Comrade Shen Huan talk about Chief Master Yang, and when I saw it today, I realized that he was really younger than I imagined!"
” Yang Wei hurriedly said: "Mr.
Liu, you are laughing."
If you want to say that you are young, or your CSSC's Shen Gong is young, I think when I was twenty-five years old, I was only the leader of the professional group, but what about Shen Gong, I read the report, he is now the assistant director of the technology innovation center, amazing!
” Soon everyone talked about the exhibited aircraft, and Shen Huan smiled and said: "Chief Engineer Yang, the FC1 fighter you presided over the design should be about to see the full-size metal prototype, right?"
” Yang Wei said in surprise: "You know this?
Shen Gong, you are really a god, this is our high secret. ” Shen Huan smiled: "I guess!
According to Mr.
Yang's work style and efficiency, this is slow, if it weren't for our key models are also at key nodes, I'm afraid that the prototype would have been out long ago!
By the way, I looked at the F7MF model on the booth and didn't know this model, what is the specific situation?
” Yang Wei smiled and said: "It's just a model, if there are really foreign customers who like it, it is possible to start the project development." ” Shen Huan nodded and said: "Well, if this aircraft came out a few years earlier, it may be really difficult to say that it will become a hot-selling product, but now that there is FC1, it is estimated that no one will look at it." ” In fact, this is also the case, Yang Wei certainly knows this better than Shen Huan, but he doesn't want to say much, after all, this is his own thing, even if it can't be sold, it can attract a lot of eyes.
However, the Mountain Eagle trainer aircraft, which was also improved from the J-7, later entered service with the Air Force, and has been improved to the carrier-based version, and has also been exported to many countries, which is probably something that Chief Yang Wei and other experts can't think of.
But then again, if Factory 132 and 611 really design and produce this F7MF, and a customer buys it, it will be robbing the brother factory of the job.
Yang Wei said with a smile: "That's not it, no matter how you change it, the inherent aerodynamic characteristics of the J-7 fighter are difficult to change, the third-generation fighter emphasizes maneuverability, especially subsonic maneuverability, and the J-7 fighter, as a high-altitude and high-speed second-generation aircraft, cannot be changed if it is not like FC1."
However, your new missile boat is eye-catching, and the world's most authoritative defense weekly believes that its performance has exceeded the world's advanced level, and I think the same is true, I think our aviation industry also needs to be bold and innovative, break through the convention, so as to achieve corner overtaking, right?
” Shen Huan smiled: "This is also true!"
I am very much looking forward to the advanced fighter plane designed and developed by ourselves to equip the troops as soon as possible!
That's the biggest expectation of our military fans and military workers!
” Yang Wei nodded and said, "Yes, we are accelerating this work, and I believe we will be able to see it soon."
Of course, we will also apply pulsating production line technology in the production of new fighter jets, and I really want to thank you, thank you for your shipbuilding industry system, with the pulsating production line, our fighters can equip the troops faster and form combat capabilities as soon as possible. ” Liu Yulong laughed and said: "In fact, our shipbuilding industry and aviation industry systems are all for national defense construction, so in terms of pulsating production line technology, we can communicate more and learn from each other, which is no problem." ”
