Chapter 2355: Aircraft Production

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Qin Baoshan was very surprised.  He didn't know why the brigade commander suddenly brought up the production of aircraft.  After all, tanks are amazing, and they have built a qualified tank.

    But airplanes are different.

    Tanks can be simpler. After all, they run on the ground. Even if there is a breakdown, they just cannot move. Airplanes are different. Airplanes fly in the sky.  If something goes wrong, it falls and the pilot falls to his death.

    Therefore, the requirements for aircraft will be higher. With the current military production capacity of the Eighth Route Army, it is enough to produce aircraft parts to meet the needs of existing aircraft.  If you want to talk about producing new aircraft, it is definitely a dream.

    Qin Baoshan does not think that the current military production capacity of the Eighth Route Army can meet the production of aircraft.

    Looking at Qin Baoshan's questioning look.  The brigade commander said: "We have negotiated with the Soviet Union, and they are willing to export a production line to us. We can arrange the production line of this aircraft in the mountains here in the northeast. In this way, we can produce aircraft ourselves."

    Hearing what the brigade commander said, Qin Baoshan opened his eyes wide: "What did you say? We want to purchase aircraft production lines from the Soviet Union?"

    It is already the autumn of 1944.  The situation on the Soviet-German battlefield is also very optimistic.  The Soviet Red Army has driven all the Germans out and is advancing towards Berlin.  In order to snatch the fruits of victory, the Allied forces also carried out the Normandy landing.  It can be said that the downfall of Germany is at hand.

    It was at this time that the Soviet Union had the confidence to export their aircraft production lines to the Eighth Route Army and let the Eighth Route Army produce their own aircraft.

    Of course, this is also because the Eighth Route Army has the same confidence. They have so much gold that they can use this gold to purchase an aircraft production line.

    It is impossible to buy from the United States, but it is not a big problem to buy from the Soviet Union.

    For the Eighth Route Army, this is also a major decision, so another purpose of the brigade commander's visit this time is to ask Qin Baoshan's attitude.

    In the past, the Eighth Route Army had no planes and could only be bombed by the enemy. In the future, the Eighth Route Army must have planes.  And you have to be able to make it yourself, so that you can supply it for your own use.

    Looking at the eyes of the brigade commander, Qin Baoshan shook his head and said: "Brigade commander, my personal opinion is firmly against it."

    This made the brigade commander very strange.  Qin Baoshan has always been promoting the development of the military industry of the Eighth Route Army.  How can it be possible to suddenly oppose the Eighth Route Army's continued development of military industry?  The tanks and cannons are all there, and now the plane is missing.

    Qin Baoshan continued: "You may not know that the current aircraft is about to become obsolete."

    Others don't know that Qin Baoshan is very clear that the Second World War brought serious damage to the whole world, and it is unknown how many lives and property were lost.  But at the same time, World War II was also a catalyst for science and technology. I don¡¯t know how many advanced science and technology emerged during this war. If these technologies were in normal times, they might not be able to achieve them in 100 years.

    For example, nuclear technology, this kind of technology can only be developed by concentrating the power of the whole country. In peacetime, it is impossible for people to tighten their belts to do this. It is only possible in wartime.

    The same is true of aircraft technology. Before World War II, the world's aircraft were still dominated by biplanes.  But by the end of World War II, it was already the world of monoplanes.  At the same time, the power of aircraft has also begun to undergo great changes. Specifically, it has entered the jet age from the propeller era.

    At this time, if the Soviet Union wants to sell an aircraft production line to the Eighth Route Army, it is of course a propeller aircraft, and it is still a backward aircraft.  The purchase of this kind of aircraft production line has no meaning for the Eighth Route Army, because all these aircraft will be eliminated in a short time.

    It's like a TV manufacturer in later generations who spent huge sums of money to purchase advanced picture tube production technology from Europe.  But they don't know that the cathode picture tube display is outdated, and the next era belongs to the liquid crystal era. The technologies they spent huge sums of money to buy have no meaning and are all wasted.

    It is meaningless to buy a production line of propeller planes now, so Qin Baoshan refuses to waste it. Even if the gold makes them full of confidence, they absolutely cannot waste it like this.

    Qin Baoshan thought about it, and then said in the language of the organization: "The technology of aircraft is developing very fast. If we buy the Soviet aircraft production line now, it will soon become obsolete. Moreover, aircraft are different from tanks.  There is a large amount of advanced materials. We can only finally implement it after the country is fully established and a large number of supporting factories are introduced.?Completely in-house production.  Now if we directly introduce a production line of aircraft, we still lack a lot of accessories and need to purchase from the Soviet Union continuously, which will continue to cost us precious funds, so I think it is not cost-effective.  "

    The brigade commander nodded, and then said: "It's such a pity. We are still planning to organize a delegation to visit the Soviet Union, and the superiors unanimously decided to choose you as the person in charge of the delegation."

    Hearing this, Qin Baoshan's eyes lit up.  It is of course a good opportunity to go to the Soviet Union for inspection.  It is not necessary to buy the production line of the aircraft. The production equipment of various advanced materials that is urgently needed by the side can be purchased. After returning, they can independently produce various alloys, which is quite good.

    "Reporting to the Brigadier, if the superior has already made various plans, then I can go to the Soviet Union. It is not necessarily necessary to buy the production line of the aircraft. We can buy other things to meet our recent urgent needs. Of course, this  I need more authority from my superiors."

    The Brigadier thought for a moment, then nodded.  He believed that Qin Baoshan's vision was very unique. Since Qin Baoshan said that he wanted to buy certain things, these things must be very important.

    Even if you don¡¯t buy a plane, it¡¯s good to go to the Soviet Union to have a look.

    "This matter needs to be telegraphed and reported to the superior, but I personally think there is no problem, and you also need to prepare here. After the superior agrees, you can fly directly to Moscow from here."

    Indeed, there is some preparatory work to be done.  The last time I went to the United States, I didn't take Wei Shuqin with me because it was very dangerous. This time I went to the Soviet Union, so I can take Wei Shuqin with me.  Qin Baoshan was delighted and decided to start preparations for this public tour.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
