Chapter 1327

Until they stepped on the hard ground of the airport, Xie Kai and Bai Yanjun let out a sigh of relief.

“In the future, no matter what, you will no longer be able to fly on planes flown by Soviet pilots!”

This is the first sentence Xie Kai said next.

At this time, his face was still pale.

Bai Yanjun didn’t speak, but nodded to express his firm view in his heart.

“The Soviets are so crazy!”

Wang Chengfeng exploded in disregard of his image.

“It’s time to make an emergency landing. These pilots should be dealt with seriously!” Zhao Zheng’s words showed his dissatisfaction.

Xie Kai just glanced at him and said nothing.

He can guarantee that the Soviet pilots will not only not be punished, but will also be rewarded.

At the airport, the special reception car arranged by the Ukrainian side is already waiting.

The convoy directly received a group of people from the Chinese delegation to a hotel dedicated to foreign guests.

The An-225 had such a malfunction. As the Minister of Aviation Industry, Misavichvsky and the Military Industrial Committee Oleg had to investigate the cause of the accident, so they did not go to the hotel with the Chinese team.

After Diminov sent a few people to the hotel, he went directly to the Antonov Design Bureau.

He also needs to stare at where the failure of the plane is.

The head of the Ministry of Aviation Industry of Ukraine must go to the scene in such matters.

How everyone in the Soviet Union investigates faults or analyzes the cause has nothing to do with Xie Kai.

Xie Kai has decided that no matter what the situation is, he will never take any planes operated by Soviet pilots who are not under his control in the future.

Even the pilot of his Il-76 special plane, Vitaliak, had to seriously consider the plane.

Fate is yours.

Hope cannot be placed on Soviet pilots.

Even if you don’t die, you have to be scared to death.

“Do you have any thoughts about this plane now? My life is almost lost on this!” Bai Yanjun, who was lying on the bed, soft and still cramping in his calf, asked Xie Kai.

Xie Kai looked at Bai Yanjun without speaking.

He felt a little strange, why is Bai Yanjun so sure that he will go back with this plane?

“You don’t need to deny your thoughts, you can already understand all this from your eyes!”

“Let’s contact the country and let the base arrange to transport the -10 here to pick us up. I don’t want to take a Soviet plane anymore.” Xie Kai changed the subject.

He didn’t want to explain the importance of An-225 to the layout of the base.

Just go back and explain together.

I don’t have to go back and have to explain it again.

Bai Yanjun saw that he didn’t want to talk about it, so he didn’t say it again.

He has no way of knowing what Xie Kai thinks, but he also knows that many of Xie Kai’s ideas are almost for the future development of 404.

Bai Yanjun looked at Xie Kai and only said to rest early.

Then he drove Xie Kai back to his own room.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

What happened this time made Xie Kai aware of the fragility of life again.



There are still many things left unfinished, and they are owed to Mo Qi and his son.

Once his life is gone, without his plan, it becomes a basket to draw water, and even his wife and children can’t accompany him.

Mo Qi was lying on the bed and there, even if he couldn’t wake up, he didn’t feel much loss. If he were not there, Mozi might live for the child, but he would never be happy.

Xie Kai decided that after going back this time, he must stay in China and stay with his wife and children.

Regarding other things, I no longer think about so much, and I no longer have such strong curiosity.

He can’t change much by himself.

There are still opportunities for change when you are alive.

It was not until the afternoon of the next day that the high-ranking Soviet officials reappeared in the sight of the Chinese delegation.

All of them had smiles on their faces, and they couldn’t tell that they had experienced a life and death last night.

Diminov directly explained to the Chinese members, “Everyone, I am very sorry for the incident last night, because the aircraft supercharger suddenly stopped working at an altitude of 8,000 meters. After lowering the altitude, the supercharger started working again. And An- 225 has very high requirements for the airport for take-off and landing, and the crew members did not choose to make an emergency landing… simply without causing serious consequences.”

“Booster? How could there be a problem with the turbocharger? It suddenly stopped working and started to run again?” Zhao Zheng, as the deputy minister of the Ministry of Aviation Industry, naturally knew how important this thing is to civil aviation passenger aircraft.

It stands to reason that such a situation should not appear on an airplane.

Diminov looked at him and explained patiently: “Vice Minister Zhao, the An-225 aircraft, as a large transport aircraft, was originally used as a launch platform for the Blizzard space shuttle and carrier rocket, not as a civil aviation passenger plane. The design considerations of the life support system are not so perfect.”

Diminov’s explanation, Xie Kai still believes.

The An-225 itself is not designed for civil aviation airliners.

The domestic Yun-8 is a military transport aircraft. Before the introduction of American airtight cabin and air-conditioning technology, almost the entire cabin was not airtight. You must be wrapped in a thick military coat in summer!

He took the -8 for several times and knew what it was like to sit in the cabin at the back.

Moreover, as long as the Yun-8 is in the cargo hold behind, the flight altitude will not be higher than three kilometers.

From Diminov’s report on yesterday’s situation, Xie Kai also clearly realized that the development of electronic technology in the Soviet aviation industry was too lagging behind to cause these failures.

In the production process of civil aviation passenger aircraft, in order to prevent problems before they occur and reduce potential failures, not only more advanced processing technology is required during the entire processing process, but also rigorous manufacturing processes are required to manufacture cabins with better sealing performance.

The sensitivity requirements for pressure sensors are also as high as possible, and a complete oxygen supply system is also required.

The backwardness of the Soviet electronics industry has caused defects in the electronic control system. Even pressure sensors that require higher sensitivity may have major problems.

Relatively speaking, for the structural strength of a large aircraft, the design of the Soviets, who can successfully install the MiG-25 with a “double 3” performance index such as the MiG-25, with an engine wrapped in stainless steel, is absolutely safe and reliable.

Even their manufacturing process is equally reliable.

The only terrible thing is the electronic system.

With a dead weight of 175 tons, it can carry 250 tons in the cabin and 200 tons on the top. With a maximum take-off weight of 640 tons, it can still fly for several kilometers in the air without affecting the fuselage. ; Even the space shuttle Blizzard with a full load of more than 200 tons flies on the top of the plane and launches without problems, which fully proves that the Soviet design is safe and reliable.

After a few decades in the future, the aircraft can still fly in the air and perform transcontinental large-scale cargo transportation tasks, which also proves the reliability of the Soviet Union’s structural strength design and machining technology.

The biggest problem for the Soviets was the backwardness of the electronics industry.

The problem of An-225 this time has sounded the alarm for Xie Kai. If there is no way to solve this problem, even if the technology is imported from the Soviet Union, there will still be these shortcomings that the Soviets are now encountering.

Just like the domestic introduction of the Su-27 from the Soviet Union back then, the rickets of the J-11 had not been resolved for a long time, and it was not resolved until the emergence of the J-11B.

In the process of imitating the F-14 avionics system and fire control radar, the 404 has made some progress in the electronics industry, but it still has a big gap compared with the advanced technology of developed countries in Europe, America and the West!

Diminov looked at the changes in the expressions of Xie Kai and others, and it was not a feeling in his heart.

He knew that the accident of An-225 might have left a very bad and deep impression on the Chinese.

To persuade the Chinese to invest in their second An-225 manufacturing, this is not an easy task!

However, he will never give up. The Soviet Union has no way to provide funds to complete the construction of the second An-225. The only possibility is to seek investment from China.

That aircraft has made many design changes, and its performance is much better than the first one.

Considering the relationship between the Soviet Union and Western countries, Antonov could not accept funds from Western countries to continue construction and production.

The only possibility is that China, a country that has restored diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union, and has begun to restore cooperation in the field of technology.

The team represented by this young man in front of him is not only rich, but also has considerable technical prowess.

Of course, Diminov is not here to talk about the cooperative construction of An-225.


The cooperation with Antonov will have to wait until the previous matters have been dealt with, and then look for opportunities later.

The Minister of Aviation Industry and the Chairman of the Military Industry Committee were here, and even other relevant officials in the Soviet Union came here. Chief Engineer Sukhoi and Simonlov, who was also the Deputy Minister of Aviation Industry of the Soviet Union, also came with a group of technicians.

It is now time to talk about the cooperation between the two sides in the fighters, which is also the most important highlight-the export of the Su-27 fighters.

“Comrades, we deeply regret what happened yesterday, but it was only a sudden situation. There was no problem with the air booster, but it suddenly stopped working…Through an overnight inspection, we found the cause of the accident, just because There was a small error in the pressure sensor’s working process.”

Misavichowski once again explained the situation encountered last night.

Pressure Sensor!

Xie Kai caught this keenly.

Oleg also spoke: “What happened yesterday is over. Fortunately, it didn’t cause any serious consequences and a false alarm. It is time to discuss the cooperation between our two sides. Time is very tight for everyone!”

What he meant was obvious, it was time to discuss the export of Su-27 fighters.

After all, the framework agreement for the MiG-29 fighter engine and OEM production has already been discussed. You only need to be ready to sign the contract of intent, and then the technicians of both parties can draw up a more detailed contract based on the contract of intent.
