Chapter 475 Modification-26

    No wonder the Song Changzheng is like this. The average fuel consumption rate of the turboprop engines equipped on the An-26 and Yun-8 currently equipped by the Navy is above 0.453 kilograms per hour.

    This is still the normal level at the economic speed of the two aircraft. If it is a special mission and the maximum throttle is used regardless of fuel consumption, the fuel consumption rate will be higher.

    ¡°However, none of Tengfei Aviation¡¯s turboprop engines has a fuel consumption rate exceeding 0.308 kilograms per hour. The fuel consumption rate of the turboprop engines equipped on the Bian-26 and Yun-8 is reduced by 0.14 kilograms per hour.

    It has been reduced by more than 30%.

    You must know that the engine's fuel consumption rate is an important indicator of fuel saving. The lower the value, the smaller the unit fuel consumption. A 30% reduction in fuel consumption rate is serious, which means that when the fuel is equal, the use of Tengfei is  The aviation-powered turboprop engine flight platform will have more than 30% more range.

    ??????????????? And this is only for a single machine. If it is double or four-shot, this data will be doubled.

    Take the An-26 in the hands of the Navy as an example. The average range is about 1,600 kilometers. If the fuel consumption rate of each engine is reduced by 30%, two engines will be 60%. If the fuel tank is inconvenient, replace it with a Tengfei Aerodynamic engine.  After installing the turboprop engine, the An-26's range has been increased from the original 1,600 kilometers to 2,560 kilometers.

    2,560 kilometers, or converted into half, it is 1,200 kilometers, which is enough to take off from the east China coastal airport to conduct a wide range of reconnaissance and patrol missions in the Yellow Sea or the East China Sea.

    Even the vast South China Sea has great potential. You must know that the data calculated by the tool is the average range. In other words, it is the range data of the An-26 fuel load reaching a certain level. If it is properly configured according to the mission, the range will be further improved.

    If it cooperates with the field airport planned to be built on Yongxing Island, using the twin-engine lightweight An-26 to cruise the South China Sea is really not something that can only be imagined in dreams.

    For the Navy, this is not like a peerless master who has been hit in the weak spot. He really has no resistance at all. He can't wait to go back with the turboprop engine of Tengfei Aviation Power in the next second and replace it with his own An-26.  superior.

    There is no way. Nowadays, the navy is very short of special maritime platforms. If this were not the case, it would be impossible for the navy to take the Y-8 and convert it into a maritime patrol aircraft as soon as it was finalized.

    However, there is nothing to say about the overall performance of the Y-8 maritime patrol aircraft, which basically meets the needs of the navy. However, firstly, the number is too small, and secondly, the operating cost is too high. After all, it is a medium-sized transport aircraft platform modification with a four-engine structure. The fuel cost for one use is a  Big numbers.

    Therefore, the Navy urgently needs a cheap, efficient and relatively low-operation light aviation platform to supplement the Y-8 maritime patrol aircraft to perform more frequent maritime patrols, ship formation relay communications, anti-ship missile relay guidance and even preliminary  Maritime early warning and other supporting combat missions.

    It stands to reason that the An-26 equipped by the Navy or the Y-7, which has just been finalized every two years, are excellent choices in this regard. Unfortunately, both models have good load capacity and space, but the range is a shortcoming, which is only more than 1,000.  The maximum range of kilometers was just after flying from the airport to the sea. Before I could see clearly what was happening on the sea, I realized that there was not enough fuel in the tank for the return trip, so I had to turn back in a hurry.

    Of course, the Navy has not thought of other methods, such as the No-Reconnaissance-8 "Plas" unmanned aerial vehicle system equipped by the Air Force Surveying and Mapping Brigade.

    The problem is that the Wuzhen-8 "Plass" UAV system can move anywhere on land, but when it comes to the sea, it is a bit like a headless fly, with various malfunctions.

    The reason is very simple. The core of the Wuzhen-8 "Plass" UAV system is remote control and information transmission based on communication satellites. If it is in the United States, none of this is a problem, because the United States only uses military communication satellites.  Dozens of them, plus a series of commercial communication satellites, hundreds of them, completely cover the world. Therefore, despite their mediocre platform performance, their Bullet A is the only drone in the world that can fly globally.

    The domestic gap in this regard is not generally large. There are only a few Dongfanghong series communication satellites, plus several leased international communication satellites, which will be able to cover the land, but it will not be able to cover the sea.

    Therefore, the Wujian-8 is very active on land, but it is not acclimatized to various conditions at sea. In addition, the limitations of maritime combat drones are still too large, so the Navy still prefers a lightweight long-range multi-purpose flying platform.

    "It's a pity that similar domestic platforms cannot meet the requirements of the Navy, and foreign ones are ridiculously expensive, so the Navy has no choice but to drag this matter down.

    I thought this matter would have to turn around in the 1990s, but I didn¡¯t expect that I saw hope this time when I visited Tengfei Aviation Power. A turboprop engine that can reduce fuel consumption by 30% is like a drop from the sky.Children's cake.

    The fifteen An-26s in the Navy's hands were replaced with D-series turboprop engines from Tengfei Aviation Power. The range could be increased by more than 50%. Song Changzheng and Li Fang felt that they were like future generations.  It¡¯s like a lottery ticket. The more I look at the information in my hand, the happier I feel.

    It doesn't matter what advanced materials or 5,000-kilometer advanced light transport platform, what can solve the current navy's dilemma is the most urgent. So before finishing reading, Li Fang looked up at Qian Qiang excitedly, with a hopeful look on his face.  Question: "Mr. Qian, can you give me a copy of the specific information on the three turboprop engines you have made? I want to go to Beijing immediately to give a special report to the leaders of the Navy Headquarters."

    Then he turned to look at Zhuang Jianye: "Mr. Zhuang, since you can produce the Y-6, your aircraft manufacturing technology should be very good. If possible, I hope you can send some experts to the Navy to inspect the An-26 model on the spot.  , if possible, the Navy is very willing to replace it with the D-series engines produced by you."

    ??Is this going to allow Ascendas Aviation Corporation to modify the Navy An-26?

    This sentence flashed through Zhuang Jianye's head for an instant, but before he could answer, Song Changzheng added: "By the way, I have submitted quotations for several of your turboprop engines. Oh, by the way, there are also d  -50, please also report it together, so that the superior leaders can also coordinate."

    "Um" Zhuang Jianye hesitated for a moment, but Director Zhao next to him spoke first again: "You will prepare a detailed report on the carbon fiber reinforced aluminum matrix composite material. Oh, we will also make one for each of the other materials.  Try to apply for it next week."

    After saying that, I felt it was inappropriate, and finally added with a frown: "Forget it, why don't you come to the capital next week and come with me to report to the head of the headquarters."
