According to Su Lin's arrangement,
The "Mantis Shrimp" aircraft carrier was dismantled into five main parts.
The power system will be developed jointly by Lanxiang Military Industry and the 031 R&D Base.
With the development experience of the WS-15 turbofan engine for the J-20,
The 031 R&D base is the most suitable for nuclear power development.
The weapon system is jointly produced by the Zhanang Desert R&D Base and the China Missile Technology Research Institute.
In particular, the shipborne modification of the HQ-16FE air defense missile was successfully completed.
It can be used directly.
The electronic control system is being overseen by Wu Kexin, the director of the Southeast Electronics Research Institute. Commander Yuan has already made some strong statements.
If you can't develop an electronic control system, then don't call yourself Dean Wu anymore. Junior Staff Member Wu, you can stay put.
Judging from Dean Wu's actions, he'll probably lock up all the engineers in the research institute and make way for them to conduct their research.
I can't afford to lose my position as dean either.
Su Lin felt completely at ease here.
Finally, there's the radar system. Recently, Director Miao has been saying he has no projects on hand, so it's been handed over to Director Miao of the Fifth Research Institute of the Army.
In this way, Commander Tang's Northern Military Region can also be considered a jointly developed military region. We'll give Commander Tang some benefits.
To avoid Commander Tang bothering me every day, which would give me a huge headache.
"Principal Su, is there anything else I, Yuan, can help you with?"
The design plans and processes for the nuclear power system are now in Su Lin's hands.
However, Lanxiang University does not offer a nuclear power major.
Even if these teachers had some talent, they still lacked any foundational knowledge in such a short time.
Wouldn't that be a complete waste of money?
"There are just too few experts in nuclear power..."
"If you don't have any experts, then find some. Commander Yuan, doesn't your Southeast Military Region have a nuclear power plant that just started operating?"
When it comes to clever ideas, Commander Tang's mind is truly brilliant.
He grasped the essence of things in an instant.
"You mean the Qingshan Nuclear Power Plant??? It is indeed under the jurisdiction of our Eastern Military Region, but it is a market-based nuclear power plant."
It's not under our military's jurisdiction!
"Old Yuan, don't you think your perspective is too narrow? It's all about rebuilding China's glory, why bother distinguishing between marketization and non-marketization?"
Now that we've reached a critical juncture in aircraft carrier development, you need to leverage your connections.
That's all I have to say. How it's implemented ultimately depends on Principal Su's decision!
Commander Tang's idea inspired Su Lin.
The most difficult part of designing an aircraft carrier is its propulsion system.
If this key point cannot be overcome in a short period of time, the progress of the aircraft carrier program will definitely be affected.
"I'm very open-minded. As long as someone is an expert, they can definitely be entrusted with important responsibilities once they come to Lanxiang Military Industry!"
Seeing that Principal Su also agreed with Commander Tang's plan,
Commander Yuan thought for a moment,
"Then I'll give it a try. But the Qingshan Nuclear Power Plant is a key project for China."
It would be very difficult to mobilize most of the experts.
"If it weren't difficult, would we need Commander Yuan's help? We'll wait for your news; don't waste our time."
"Every day we delay in developing it, our nation will have one less aircraft carrier to build!"
"Okay! I'll go and make some contact first."
Su Lin and Commander Tang also rushed to the 031 R&D base by private jet.
Power experts from Lanxiang Military Industry were also present.
"Principal Su, I thought you'd forgotten about our 031 R&D base!!"
Upon arriving at the R&D base, I ran into an old acquaintance, He Yunfeng.
I glanced at the military rank insignia on He Yunfeng's shoulders.
"Not bad, Xiao He, you've already reached the rank of lieutenant general!"
Commander Tang patted Lieutenant General He Yunfeng on the shoulder and said,
Because of the outstanding contributions of Base 031 in the development of the J-20 and the Turbo-15 engine,
Major General He was finally promoted to lieutenant general.
"Isn't that all thanks to Principal Su's arrangements and Commander Tang's guidance?"
Since the successful development of the WS-15 engine
The management of the 031 R&D base was subsequently handed over to He Yunfeng.
This was also Su Lin's idea; He Yunfeng, that kid, has high ideological awareness.
He's reliable and hardworking; with him in charge of J-20 production...
I feel relieved.
"If you want to thank someone, thank Principal Su. I just signed off on a document, it was just a formality."
Your successful promotion to lieutenant general is also thanks to the platform provided by Principal Su.
This will allow you to fully demonstrate your work abilities!
"Yes, yes! Principal Su, did you come back specifically to supervise the production of the J-20?"
Due to the absolute secrecy surrounding the "Mantis Shrimp" aircraft carrier project,
Even Lieutenant General He Yunfeng did not receive any inside information.
"New project."
"A new project? Commander Tang, does this mean our J-20 is already obsolete after only six months of development?"
"What are you thinking, kid? The J-20 is the world's most powerful fighter jet right now, and it's based on nuclear power research."
We'll discuss the specifics at the meeting! You should first notify all the experts and heads of each department.
The chief engineer is also in the conference room; Principal Su is going to hold a mobilization meeting!
"Okay! I'll pass the word down right away!"
Su Lin and Commander Tang arrived at the conference room of the 031 R&D base.
Looking at this familiar scene, Su Lin was filled with emotion.
In just over six months, the hardships of initially developing the J-20 are still vivid in my mind.
Now we are finally about to begin developing China's first aircraft carrier.
"Principal Su, everyone is here. This is the chief designer of our WS-15 engine."
"The person in charge is Principal Su Lin!"
Among the attendees, besides some familiar faces,
There are also many talents recruited from major universities across China.
China's talent pool for aero-engines.
That completes the process.
This was also Su Lin's original intention in building the 031 R&D base.
Not only should one be a "talent scout" oneself, but one should also help these "talented individuals" to give full play to their respective strengths.
The production of J-20s at the 031 R&D base has also increased significantly.
All four military regions have deployed a large number of the latest J-20 series fighter jets.
"Hello, Principal Su!"
"Principal Su, our R&D base is all about your legendary achievements! Skipping the second generation and going straight to developing the fifth generation fighter jet."
That's so powerful!
"I heard that in the area where the US aircraft carrier is conducting exercises, Wan Jun managed to take the head of an enemy target ship. That was quite a show of strength!"
"Principal Su brought a big project with him this time. How can we not be confident now?"
Principal Su, tell us what task has been assigned to our 031 R&D base this time!
"I'll definitely get it for you!!!"
