Wang Qi found a group of related aircraft manufacturing companies to check the information.
The most important ones on this line are three aircraft manufacturers, but there are also a series of parts and accessories suppliers including Xincheng Heavy Industry, Automobile Factory, Fenggu Machinery Manufacturing Factory, Fenggu Instrument Factory, Dongshandao Leather Factory, etc.
The demand for Manniu was limited before, and the supply of similar parts was not large. Therefore, the industrial chain was shorter. Starting its export sales will inevitably lengthen the chain. Once the production chain affects private suppliers, some companies will inevitably be required to upgrade equipment.
The negotiations between the official results will become very troublesome, and it is better to let the manufacturers take the lead.
Looking at the advantages of the three aircraft manufacturers, the one that needs to make the most changes is the Redstone Factory.
Hongshi Aircraft Manufacturing Factory is the merger of Hongshi Factory and Fenggu Factory. It has two production areas. The self-sufficiency rate of mass-produced parts is even higher than that of Blue Sky Heavy Industry. It is Manniu's main parts supplier.
However, to switch to export sales, Wang Qi believes that the Feathered Serpent plant is more suitable as the Manniu assembly plant.
Two points.
First, the red stone is limited by the terrain. The existing site has low scalability, and the take-off and landing of the Manniu aircraft will be limited.
Although the military Manniu can perform vertical takeoff and landing, this technology has higher requirements for pilots, and Wang Qi has no intention of releasing this technology for overseas copying.
The foreign trade version will be the same as the existing civil version of the Aviation Administration, mainly using a combination of "forced correction of air attitude" and "short takeoff and landing" to deal with the risk of loss of control.
Taken together, Hongshi Factory cannot cope with the expansion of the runway and the increase of hangars at the same time.
The main business direction of the Second Feathered Snake Factory is foreign trade. It has more advantages in customer accumulation and can easily make buyers accept a relatively outrageous price.
But the Feathered Serpent Factory also has a big problem. Their quality management is relatively rough, which is also the reason why the aviation bureau did not like to accept their products in the early days. The complexity of the Manniu is much higher than that of the wooden man. Before handing it over to them, a system must be established. Set up more stringent quality inspection procedures.
The seller will occupy the majority of the profits, which is relatively unfair to the Red Stone Factory and needs to be appeased.
There are already plans in this regard, and the administrative aircraft can be handed over to the Hongshi Factory.
Red Stone Factory has been researching things like flying cars for a long time, and has also sold some.
These flying cars are subject to the Supplementary Provisions of the Air Control Regulations. The flying height cannot exceed 300 meters. When entering or leaving the city, they must land at the city gate and report. It’s okay not to land, and you won’t be shot down directly, but the final landing point will be surrounded by city defense troops. Next, you will be fined, the driver’s license will be revoked, and the vehicle will be confiscated if there are contraband, and the user who purchased the car will be held accountable. If the city defense army takes off again before reaching the landing point, it will really be marked as a dangerous object.
This kind of inconvenience, although no flying car has actually been shot down so far, also makes it not very popular with big customers. Half of the sales are used as ferry tools between Fenggu and Pangxun.
The Little Bear City Administrative Center is located in the middle of the city. There are two north and south elevated highways nearby. However, these two elevated highways will be connected to more and more urban units in the future. Once the number is filled, it will be difficult to guarantee full-time traffic speed, so Wang Qi in the early stage During planning, a rooftop flying platform was arranged for the administrative center.
There is also a flying platform on the roof of the palace. The current one is a wooden man with a vertical take-off and landing system, which is not particularly suitable.
This mainly involves the overall shape of the administrative center. In some atmospheric environments, it is easy to form a clockwise vortex with higher wind speed inside. This vortex is designed to cooperate with the counterattack magic array, but it will cause it in daily life. Some trouble.
I don’t really care about vortices during the magic take-off and landing phase, but if I want the aircraft to not overturn when it stops, I have to either moor it or prepare a hangar. The former involves the risk of damage to the landing gear, while the latter exists when gliding in and out of the hangar due to the influence of wind. Danger. Currently, several of the modified wooden men in the administrative center are moored, so the risk of damage cannot be completely ruled out.
The size of the flying car is more suitable for carrying a small number of administrative staff in and out of the city frequently. It can also be parked in ordinary parking spaces outside the city without having to go to the airport to make a long journey.
The existing speed car occupies less than two parking spaces, and its height is about the same as that of an ordinary van.
Mainly based on magic power, the short wings can only undertake the task of reducing energy consumption. An aircraft of this size has its advantageous application scenarios. If it can be made more perfect, you can consider landing on the protruding platform on the middle floor.
The unfavorable development of flying cars is directly related to the demand for air traffic control. After the vehicles are converted into administrative vehicles, the administrative department will modify and customize special flying lane rules based on first-hand experience, which can also pave the way for subsequent development.
Administration should consider the possibility of evil forces hijacking documents and personnel, and security needs to be further strengthened.
Wang Qi listed the key points one by one and handed them to the Ministry of Industry to interview relevant manufacturers.
It didn’t take long for me to receive early expressions of interest...or let’s say the manufacturer’s stance.
Feathered Serpent Factory hopes to retain the existing production chain and not abolish it, so as to complete the production of foreign trade bulls in the form of further expansion. I didn't plan to deal with this originally. The feathered serpent system made by imitating wooden people was actually more economical, and there was no need to give up this market to Fatel.
Hongshi Factory hopes that the executive speed car can have a suitable price guarantee, and it is best to give it a new brand like the Dawn series of Heishui Factory.
It's normal to be jealous. Sugon Cars participating in the capital relocation is equivalent to an official endorsement of safety, and this is the vehicle indicator that big buyers are most concerned about. Heishui Factory also intends to take the opportunity to improve its brand positioning, but after completing The first batch of 300 administrative orders cannot be sold to the private sector until now.
This request from Hongshi Factory was not too much. Wang Qi ticked the box and let them name it themselves.
The next step is to adjust Blue Sky Heavy Industry, which is purely government-run and focuses on research and supplemented by manufacturing.
At this stage, this factory with more than 15,000 people has about a thousand people working on engine improvement projects and basic research, of which 40% are technical workers and logistics. After deducting the engine production department and machining department of 5,000 people, the rest are engaged in the production and improvement of the Manniu transport type, Manniu bombing type, Tornado III single-engine turboprop reconnaissance aircraft, and Thunder series.
They are required to form a team and cooperate with the Aviation Administration and Feathered Serpent Factory to customize the technical standards and production process specifications of the Manniu foreign trade version. In the meantime, they may need to produce two prototypes for ground and aerial experiments.
[In view of the general environment,
It doesn't seem like a big deal, but today's aircraft systems are more complicated than when they were first developed. In addition to the time cost required for multi-party communication, if there are two to three thousand people, it would be good to have results in half a year.
After a while, Wang Qi got the preliminary plan and was quite satisfied. The people below were already good at doing business.
The foreign trade version decided to change back to the early gliding-powered airfoil, equipped with two air-cooled radial engines as auxiliary power.
The two air-cooled engines together do not have one megawatt, and cannot pull a beast with a total weight of more than 30 tons after loading. However, as auxiliary power, it can effectively improve its gliding flight trajectory and make the altitude change more gentle. It can not only provide a certain guarantee for the safety of goods, but also not increase too much operating costs.
There are also modification considerations. To convert a glider to a version with an engine, the wings must be removed to modify it. However, there is no technical content in converting an air-cooled machine to a water-cooled machine. Pang Xun Factory can also easily master it without bothering Lan Tian. Heavy industry.
The new foreign trade machine was arranged, and the temporary world gate was opened again. This time the demons that followed seemed a little wrong.
