Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 1090 Acquisition Plan 2
"The development of the world's avionics systems can be roughly divided into four generations: ordinary single systems, joint systems, data integrated systems and advanced integrated systems. Advanced integrated systems are to achieve internal modularization of avionics system operations, which are handled by software. Several foreign countries already have this technology. Joint electronic systems are relatively independent, with displays and controls merged into several integrated display screens and panels.

"my country's avionics system is between the second and third generations. There are several gaps in my country's avionics: first, the overall design technology of digital modular avionics. Second, the integrated cockpit and flight tube technology to achieve intelligent flight tube. Third, the integrated communication and navigation system. Fourth, the identification technology of special requirements for airworthiness certification..."

"What you mean is that John Bull's avionics system is now in the third generation, right?" Jiang Yan spoke after listening.

"Yes, it can be said to be one of the better avionics equipment of the third generation." Wang Yang said.

"What do you want me to do? Do you want me to buy just the product or the technology together?" Jiang Yan asked.

"Well, it would be best to purchase the technology, as it can serve as a reference in other areas." Wang Yang hesitated before speaking.

As a person with a technical background, I understand that buying products and buying technology are two completely different concepts. Most companies prefer to sell products rather than technology, so the cost of purchasing technology is relatively high.

"By the way, do we have any problems with high-precision machine tools? I remember when we were discussing the design of large aircraft, many experts said that my country's machine tools were far behind those of Western countries. At that time, I was able to get some machine tools from Western countries through many means, and this time I got a lot of machine tools from Jiaobenji, but why is there no news about this since it has entered China?"

"Mr. Jiang, you come from a machine tool background, and you also understand that we have no problem with high-precision machine tools. Originally, my country's machine tool industry learned from the Soviet Union and inherited their machine tool design concepts, which are simple and practical.

"In 1958, my country and Japan developed CNC machine tools at the same time. By the way, the first CNC machine tool was developed under your leadership. In the 1980s, my country was in a honeymoon period with Western countries, and began to import many high-precision machine tools from Europe and the United States, and even ordered a set of industrial mother machines from Siemens in Germany. However, there are not many people in China who can speak foreign languages, especially in machine tool operation, which is why we send a large number of students abroad.

The Siemens machine tools we bought were sent to the research institute after they were brought into China. After being deciphered and studied by numerous experts in China, they redesigned and assembled the German machine tools according to the model of the Soviet machine tools. Unexpectedly, this produced a miraculous effect. The new industrial machine tools not only have the simple and practical characteristics of the Soviet machine tools, but also have higher work efficiency and the same high precision as the German machine tools. Up to now, we have used this industrial machine tool to produce various machine tools for large aircraft. "

"Has this set of machine tools been surveyed and replicated?" Jiang Yan was more concerned about this issue.

"It is said that a breakthrough has been made and it is estimated that it will be put into production soon. By then, there will be great progress in my country's machine tools." Wang Yang said.

Hearing this, Jiang Yan nodded in satisfaction. If the current machine tool technology in the country is still too far behind, then all his efforts in the past few years would have been in vain. Jiang Yan had read relevant information a while ago. At present, the current domestic machine tool technology has no problem with ordinary machine tools, and medium-sized machine tools are not worse than domestic ones. The only problem is high-precision machine tools. However, Jiang Yan knows that the country has high-precision machine tools, which are no worse than those abroad. It's just that they have not been announced for some reason.

"As for the avionics system, what are we focusing on? This will help me to have a focus." Jiang Yan changed the subject and started

"Mr. Jiang, in fact, the gap between us in aircraft avionics systems lies mainly in the issue of airworthiness certificates. We have no problem with aircraft avionics systems, hardware, and layout. The problem lies in our lack of software design for large aircraft avionics systems. So we have a hard time dealing with this." "Okay, I understand, but you also know that software can be priced arbitrarily. We must be prepared to bleed heavily."

After saying this, Jiang Yan stood up and walked around the room several times, thinking about what to do. If the avionics system is imported from John Bull, it must be controlled by John Bull. I don't like John Bull! Now, I am still controlled by others. This feeling is really unpleasant.

"So, we will start now, walking on two legs. On the one hand, we will introduce technology, and on the other hand, we will start organizing research."

"Mr. Jiang, that's not impossible. We are still in the development stage in this area, and the finished product will not be available in a short time. A set of flight control software is much more complicated than an operating system."

Hearing Wang Yang's words, Jiang Yan gritted his teeth and said, "Let's increase the research and development of software. After we go back, the Human Resources Department will fully cooperate. As long as they are talented in this field, we will recruit them. Our benchmark is the aviation control software that meets the standards of the International Large Aircraft Pass."

In fact, the airworthiness certificate standards are completely European and American, using their leading technology standards to make things difficult for other countries. Once our technology is at the same level as theirs, or even exceeds theirs, then the airworthiness certificate standards will be European and American, and they will just shoot themselves in the foot.”

"The three most important parts of the large aircraft project are the aircraft engine, the avionics system, and the pneumatic system. Now I set a tone that things that can be solved domestically must be solved domestically. Even if we pay money to cooperate with them, things that can be done with money are not a big deal." Jiang Yan said generously.

"By the way, I heard that the country has already started to demonstrate the Beidou system." Jiang Yan suddenly asked.

"Yes, the discussion has already begun." Wang Yang said. He did not doubt Jiang Yan's information channels because he knew that Jiang Yan's level was higher than his.

"So, let's focus on the Beidou project. When this project is implemented, we will cooperate with the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in China to launch a positioning satellite using the Long March 3 rocket as our group's communication satellite. When the project matures, we will follow up. My plan is to launch seven satellites. In this way, when our large aircraft is successfully developed, we can use our own navigation system."

As soon as I finished speaking, Wang Yang stood up, grasped my hand and said, "Chairman, it would be great if this were the case. Our large aircraft electronic technology will leapfrog to the world's leading level."

They had considered this issue before. After all, the navigation system is still relatively important. Currently, the only mature system is the GPS system of the United States. After trying it, they found that it put forward various conditions, which was very annoying.
