Speaking of aero-engines, I believe everyone knows that this is the shortcoming of our country as a big country in all-round industrial manufacturing.
In fact, the reason is relatively simple. We started late in the military manufacturing industry with high precision requirements. Although we have been courageously catching up and developing rapidly in recent years, there is obviously a big gap with the world's leading aero-engine manufacturing powers such as the United States and Russia!
For example, the appearance of the "Fat Girl" domestic Yun -20 is to transplant the power equipment of Il -76, counting on the export of engines from Russia and Ukraine. Today, China has been heavily dependent on foreign aero-engines!
Because the aero-engine with independent intellectual property rights in China has not been successfully developed, it is like having its own weakness. Once a certain aircraft needs rapid mass production, it is easy to be contained by foreign countries.
If foreign countries are not allowed to export aero engines, it will directly affect the combat readiness level of our air force. This kind of heart disease has long plagued our country deeply. But not long ago, things finally turned around.
The news that Tianjiao Airlines, a China enterprise, plans to invest in the acquisition of Ukrainian Madsic Company, which is known as the "czar of power", has spread. Ukrainian Madsic Company has a glorious history and inherited many top technologies and excellent engine manufacturing technologies from the Soviet Union.
Products used to sell well in more than 90 countries around the world. Although the company is facing bankruptcy, Madsic's aero-engine technology cannot be underestimated. So when people learned that they were about to successfully acquire Madsic in Ukraine. It is in high spirits, and I can't help but imagine that China has the most advanced manufacturing technology for large aero-engines in the world.
With its own aero-engine, domestic military aircraft can hold their heads high and no longer be subject to foreign exports.
But something happened. Although the two companies signed a cooperation contract, their dreams have been shattered. According to Russian media reports, the cooperation between Ukrainian Madsic Company and China enterprises has aroused the dissatisfaction of the United States, and it is believed that China will acquire advanced aero-engine technology from it, thus affecting the national security of the United States.
Therefore, we put pressure on the Ukrainian government to immediately abandon its plan to sell Madsic to enterprises in China. According to the news of Ukrainian Anti-monopoly Committee, it will be announced that China Beijiao Aviation Industry Investment Co., Ltd. will be prohibited from acquiring Ukrainian Madsic company.
It is because I don't want to see the rise of China in aviation that I got involved. It also indirectly forced Madsic to stop cooperation with China on the grounds of "national security of the United States". This kind of behavior can't help but make people feel indignant at the trick-or-treating behavior in the United States. For us, we can only become the real engine power by ourselves!
