Based on this, China Ascendas's construction of a new aircraft manufacturing plant on the outskirts of Sin Chew has received strong support from the Sin Chew local government. Not only has a large area of ??land been generously transferred to China Ascendas' name, but it has also given great support in terms of approvals and policies. Therefore, China Ascendas' Xingzhou aircraft production plant is second only to the aircraft production base at the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains, covering an area of ??242 hectares.
? Among them, the No. 1 workshop used for aircraft final assembly covers an area of ??22 hectares.
The entire workshop is currently undergoing expansion and renovation, and its future scale will reach 28 hectares, making it the largest super production workshop in Southwest China.
The short-term products are mainly the mass-produced models of the No. 10 Project, as well as the mass-produced models of the Navy's fc-23 carrier-based fighter that is expected to be completed before 2010.
Needless to say, the fc-23 carrier-based fighter is originally a masterpiece of China's take-off. It seems a bit surprising that the mass-produced model of Project 10 is also placed here. After all, it is the exclusive business of the successful aircraft manufacturing group.
The original plan was also the same. The Chenggong Group would produce the mass-produced version of Project 10, and China Tengfei would provide supporting equipment. It would be equivalent to one main attacker and one auxiliary and jungler.
As a result, the Air Force was very satisfied with this aircraft after a series of test flights and evaluations of Project 10. Especially after it was equipped with the WD-70 series high-power turbofan engine produced by China Tengfei, the overall performance completely exceeded that of the Air Force. Therefore, it was decided to increase the purchase of this type of aircraft, requiring the production unit to complete the replacement of six fighter flight groups of the Air Force before 2010, and at least two fighter flight groups to form initial combat capabilities.
Although Chenggong Group introduced part of China Tengfei's pulsating production line technology in the early years, which improved the efficiency of aircraft production, the problem is that part of the pulsating production line technology is not a full set of practical technologies after all. In addition, several important supporting factories affiliated to Chenggong Group are located in Huangfeng. After being transferred from the Berjaya Group, the overall pace of industrial upgrading slowed down. It failed to successfully complete its own technological innovation by taking advantage of China's take-off and upgrading pace, resulting in no substantial improvement in overall efficiency.
The combination of all these factors has resulted in the annual output of the Project 10 mass-produced model of the Chenggong Cheng Group being only 18 aircraft.
An average of 1.5 aircraft are produced per month.
This efficiency is considered a good result in normal times. You must know that the domestically produced Su-27 produced by Northeast Aviation Industry has only 12 aircraft per year, with an average output of only one per month.
This is not to say that the Northeast Aviation Industry is conservative and does not use pulse production lines, but that the entire Su-27 production system originated from the Soviet Union has too little redundancy. China Ascendas once organized relevant elite forces to produce in the Northeast Aviation Industry The base has been researching for more than half a year, but can't find a way to integrate the original Soviet production line.
Of course, according to China's ability to take off, it is not impossible to abandon the original Soviet goods and reinstall a set of asset-based pulsating production lines. However, as soon as this idea was proposed, it was opposed by the Russian cooperative enterprises.
There is no way, the Russian cooperative enterprise has long regarded this Su-27 production line transferred to Northeast Aviation Industry as a chicken that will always lay golden eggs.
Annual equipment maintenance, parts replacement, and the import of aircraft structural parts. The Russian cooperative enterprises have benefited a lot from it. How could it be possible for people to overthrow it and start over?
Doesn¡¯t that mean you¡¯re ruining your own job?
¡°The Northeast Aviation Industry has not done very well in localizing the Su-27, so that this model has been introduced into the country for more than ten years, and many key components still rely on Russian cooperative companies.
Especially for aviation engines, China¡¯s Tengfei WD-70 series high-power turbofan engines have long been tried, but today¡¯s mass-produced models still use Russia¡¯s AL-31 series.
The reason is not that the Northeast Aviation Industry still uses the mission computer produced by Russia, which causes the aircraft self-inspection status to only default to the Russian al-31 series, and other models cannot be connected at all.
Originally, the Northeast Aviation Industry wanted to solve this problem by successfully bidding for carrier-based aircraft and obtaining massive funds from the Navy, and then apply for support from the Air Force to solve this problem. However, the carrier-based aircraft project was stopped by China Tengfei, and faced with the huge Due to the funding gap, the Northeast Aviation Industry can only slow down and delay it until now.
If this happened in the past, China Ascendas would probably be able to help the opponent. The problem is that at this time, China Ascendas is no longer the young boy with only technical strength and no model. The combination of all types of aircraft on hand is enough. There are more than twenty models, and I am too busy here to take care of other people's affairs.
But this makes the Air Force anxious. The high-low configuration of the third-generation aircraft that has been cherished for so many years has finally met the conditions for field installation. You can't just solve the problem, right?
It is necessary to publish biographies on a large scale, forming a model similar to the US military's F-16 and F-15Only that kind of large formation has real combat capability.
Especially after the Air Force decided to upgrade its army from homeland air defense to both offense and defense, the need in this area became more urgent. However, as a result, the production capacity of each company has been stretched so hard that it cannot keep up. You tell me whether the Air Force is in a hurry!
¡°If this had happened in the past, it would have been useless even if the Air Force was anxious to death. The division of labor system in the aviation industry during the founding of the People¡¯s Republic of China had already determined the production pattern. Coupled with so many years of development, this industry has become more solidified.
So it¡¯s useless even if the Air Force is in a hurry. The production factory has both hands. I only have so much ability. What can you do to me?
What can be done? You'll have to wait!
However, the new leadership of the Air Force does not think so. Reform is not just about the forward development of the army itself. In today's era of global integration, informatization and intelligence of equipment, reform is all-round.
In this case, why should the industrial division of labor during the founding of the People's Republic of China continue? Why can¡¯t the long-standing industrial structure be broken?
The reason why Air Force leaders have such confidence is mainly because of China¡¯s take-off.
The Y-18nb large transport aircraft produced by it is a big one with a maximum take-off weight of 125 tons. The Air Force ordered 48 aircraft in 2002, and it took China Takeoff only 3 years to deliver them all.
If we exclude the year of waiting for the supporting factory to prepare and supply materials, the actual production only took 2 years.
Annual production reaches 24 aircraft, with an average of 2 aircraft per month!
In this regard, when the Air Force leader who worked in the equipment department of the headquarters was investigating the production line of China Ascendas military transport aircraft, Zhuang Jianye said embarrassingly that he did not have enough production capacity. If everything was operated at full capacity, China Ascendas could reduce the production capacity of Y-18nb to 18nb. The current number is 2 per month, which has increased to one every two days.
The leader of the Air Force was surprised and kept this matter in mind. After taking up the leadership position of the Air Force, faced with the stretched production capacity of several production plants, he directly called Zhuang Jianye and asked directly, "What is China doing with fighter jets?" Can Tengfei make dumplings?
Zhuang Jianye is a real man who understands kings and is the best in heaven. He said without hesitation: "Yes!"
