Chapter 1162: Sell Yakovlev

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It is precisely because of this determination that Zhuang Jianye led Ascendas Group to begin a quiet transformation in the aerospace field.

    For example, in the field of aerospace, Ascendas Group is the most active advocate of satellite navigation systems. In addition to being autonomous and controllable, ground-guided navigation cannot be used for carrier-based aircraft or patrol aircraft in distant seas. Only satellite navigation is the most economical and affordable.

    The other one is the planned ocean monitoring and communication satellite system, which mainly solves ocean environment detection, weather changes and ocean communications. After all, if carrier-based aircraft want to go to sea, ground communication stations cannot be counted on, and they can only rely on space.  satellite in .

    Finally, there is the anti-ship ballistic missile in the "Killer" plan, which is the most powerful deterrent to the COSCO Sea and is enough to support the carrier-based aircraft to have a peaceful harbor before setting foot on the ocean.

    This is true in the aerospace field, let alone aviation. For so many years, Ascendas Group has never stopped researching and developing its JJ-7max. Whether it is the Zhenlong series demonstrator or any other model, in the final analysis, it is all about exploring JJ-7max.  As a result, Ascendas Group has always been in the leading position in China in terms of carrier-based fighter jets due to the feasibility of 7max improvement.

    In addition, in the field of ship-based helicopters.  Except for the unsuccessful second-carrier version, the Zhi-8max, which was developed by Ascendas Group and Cidu Company, successfully achieved its first flight and was recognized by the Navy.

    If nothing unexpected happens, it will most likely be used as a carrier-based aircraft for future aircraft carriers or amphibious assault ships.

    As for the Y-18nb and the ongoing H-6 overhaul, they seem to have nothing to do with the sea, but in fact these two models are still closely related to the navy. After all, in addition to carrier-based aircraft, the navy also has land-based fixed-wing aircraft.  Or missing.

    There must always be anti-submarine patrol aircraft to ensure smooth access to the sea, right?

    There must always be bombers heading out of the island chain to deter the enemy, right?

    There must always be an early warning aircraft as a reconnaissance force to provide enemy information ahead, right?

    There must always be air tankers

    Even though the U.S. Navy has a huge fleet of carrier-based combat aircraft, it is also equipped with a large number of P-3C anti-submarine patrol aircraft, KC-135 aerial tankers and a series of auxiliary aircraft to cooperate with ocean fleet operations.

    Since there is a jewel like the United States ahead of us, all we have to do in China is grasp the jewel like the United States.

    In short, the focus of this transformation of Ascendas Group is to move from land to sea and put all its treasures on the vast ocean. In Zhuang Jianye¡¯s words, he wants to be the king of pirates Bah, he is the man who is the king of sea aircraft!

    Since we want to be the king of maritime aircraft, carrier-based aircraft is naturally the most critical link, and it is also the focus of Ascendas Group¡¯s development in the next ten to twenty years. Although in this regard, Ascendas Group is ahead of other domestic aviation companies.

    But it is undeniable that compared with the United States, Russia, and even Europe, these established aviation industry powers, the gap between Ascendas Group is still quite large.

    On the one hand, Ascendas Group was established relatively late and has a weak foundation; but more importantly, there is a lack of support from large-scale surface ships such as aircraft carriers in China. As a result, Ascendas Group is unable to obtain relevant technical verification and is unable to conduct research on the aircraft models it develops.  Make targeted modifications.

    In short, it is actually a lack of experience in the development of carrier-based aircraft.

    This is why Ascendas Group proposed to acquire certain technologies for the C-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft in its deal with Lockheed Martin for the Pulse 3 aircraft assembly line.

    If you don¡¯t have it yourself, you can only find a way to find it. Lockheed Martin has rich experience and advanced technology in this regard. However, due to the export restrictions on so-called sensitive technologies, Lockheed Martin has no way to C-2 "Greyhound" carrier  The transport aircraft technology was transferred to Ascendas Group.

    Then Ascendas Group was unable to transfer all the technology related to the Pulse 3 aircraft assembly line to Lockheed Martin. The two parties negotiated for more than ten rounds, but they could not reach a compromise.

    ??Even, Lockheed Martin proposed to increase the cost by an additional US$300 million to US$500 million.

    But Ascendas Group still refused to give in, with US$300-500 million. To be honest, Ascendas Group really didn¡¯t pay attention to it. Not to mention the one-year maintenance cost of the Pulse 3 aircraft final assembly line currently used by other Boeing companies, Ascendas Group  You can get $550 million.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? As long as this production line is completed, Ascendas Group's desire to make this little money will be just like having fun.

    Therefore, Ascendas Group values ??technology more than money, because the C-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft for Ascendas Group is not just a simple carrier-based aircraft model, but more importantly, based on  The C-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft Ascendas Group can master the theoretical algorithm and material selection of the overall structural layout of the catapult take-off and tailhook landing aircraft.

    This is crucial to the development of Ascendas Group¡¯s future carrier-based aircraft, not to mentionThe ??c-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft can become a very good carrier-based early warning aircraft, carrier-based tanker and carrier-based anti-submarine aircraft with slight modifications.

    A truly versatile model, how could Ascendas Group not want to get it?

    It's a pity that Lockheed Martin won't let go, and there's nothing you can do against it, so Ascendas Group can only use the Pulse 3 aircraft assembly line like a patient fisherman to seduce Lockheed Martin with extremely delicious bait.  Big fish, because Zhuang Jianye doesn¡¯t believe that Lockheed Martin is not moved by looking at the Pulse 3 aircraft assembly line?

    Unless they are prepared to cede all future business to Boeing.

    In fact, this is indeed the case. Lockheed Martin really cannot resist the temptation of the Pulse 3 aircraft assembly line, because they have calculated that this production line will provide unprecedented high-intensity production capacity for the future JSF Joint Strike Fighter project, which is very important to Lockheed Martin.  The future profit growth of DeMartin Company can be said to be a great boost!

    But the problem is that Lockheed Martin also wants to transfer the technology of the C-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft to Ascendas Group. After all, the C-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft is an old model designed in the 1960s.  By the 1990s, they had been in service for nearly thirty years. They had no high-tech skills to speak of, so they just gave it to them.

    What's more, Lockheed Martin doesn't believe that Ascendas Group can produce a replica model similar to the C-2 "Greyhound" carrier-based transport aircraft, because Ascendas Group has been doing well in China for so many years.  Everyone can get involved, making it look like an encyclopedia.

    But in fact, in the eyes of international giants, Ascendas Group is similar to some high-tech companies in Germany or Japan. It is just a cheap supporting supplier with slightly outstanding capabilities that can keep up with the pace of American giants.

    In fact, that¡¯s it. What are the products of Ascendas Group?  Carbon fiber composite materials, high-performance aluminum-lithium alloys, satellite cooling systems, and aircraft product assembly line design.  and system integration.

    Isn¡¯t this a supporting supplier?  What is an ancillary supplier?

    So, unlike Lockheed Martin and other giants, Ascendas Group is just a coolie who works hard for them. At most, he can only be a high-end wage earner in a suit and leather shoes. How do you ask such a company to develop aircraft?  It's not like letting NBA's Jordan play quarterback on the Super Bowl football field. It's completely wrong. It's just a joke!

    But the problem is that some people in the United States just can¡¯t turn their heads and always have a persecution paranoia, so they disagree whether they live or die.

    ¡°Even if Lockheed Martin gets through its own lobbying group, it won¡¯t work. He can¡¯t give this thing to Ascendas Group, and he wants the Pulse 3 aircraft assembly line. What should he do?

    It happened that Yakovlev was half disabled by himself, so Lockheed Martin sighed and simply sold Yakovlev.
