Give me another plane?
What kind of plane could carry more weight than the An-124?
Chen Yu thought to himself,'I just want the An-124 transport plane. However, seeing that the Russians haven't reached the point where they're desperate enough to sell their underwear yet, I won't trade this thing so easily.'
After all, the Antonov Design Bureau had only developed a dozen of them, so they were very rare.
"Haha, Commander Anton, just kidding. What do you mean by other planes?”
Seeing that he couldn't get his hands on this thing for the time being, Chen Yu immediately changed the topic and asked about the thing he could get his hands on now.
Commander Anton pondered for a moment and then said,"
"Recently, the aviation personnel in Moscow are not doing well, so many models are ready to be sold. Do you know about the Tu-154 passenger plane? I can get you a Tu-154!”
Tu-154 passenger plane!
This plane was designed by the Tupolev Design Bureau of the Soviet Union in 1966. At first, it was only used for delivery.
However, the Russians were clearly aware of the threat of the capitalist camp's airbus and boeing companies.
Therefore, starting in 1972, Tu-154 was officially upgraded to a passenger plane for medium and long-range flights in the Soviet Union.
Big Brother was really versatile! He could make anything. He could still use it after making it, and it wouldn't break even after using it.
One had to know that this thing was developed by the Tupolev Design Bureau during the era of the Soviet Union.
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, all kinds of hardships, research and development, and maintenance personnel were all dismissed.
However, under the condition of minimal maintenance, this thing was only retired in 2020!
Good fellow! The Evergreen Tree of the passenger plane industry!
Later, Mou Qizhong used 500 train skins to exchange for four Tu-154 passenger planes. There were too many legends about this passenger plane.
Now that Commander Anton said that he could trade the Tu-154 for the plane, Chen Yu immediately agreed to the proposal.
This was because, let alone a large passenger plane, even a small fighter jet would be difficult to produce in China. China had always been open to foreign advanced aircraft!
In the future, the C919 would only fly for the first time in 2018. At that time, it even brought a wave of excitement to the people of the country!
Big brother's technology level was amazing. Now, the Tu-154 passenger plane could be put into use after flying back!
However, Chen Yu definitely wasn't making this trip to get four planes back like Mou Qizhong!
This thing is very helpful to China's aircraft research. Now that the Russians need me, I have to get two more back!
"Commander Anton, since Tu-154 is for sale? I wonder how many you can get? What's the price?"
"Four! I can guarantee you four Tu-154s? As for the price…"
Commander Anton couldn't help but pause at this point. The staff officer behind him leaned over and said a few words. After glancing at Chen Yu, Commander Anton continued,"
"A Tu-154 passenger plane only costs 4 million rubles! The total price of four passenger planes was 16 million rubles! We can use them all to deduct supplies!"
When the Russians bid 4 million rubles for one plane, Milan told Chen Yu that this was a reasonable price.
After hearing this, Chen Yu felt that this was an opportunity he couldn't miss. He directly said,"
"Commander Anton, I want six Tu-154 passenger planes. If you can't get a passenger plane, you can replace it with other models. I promise to deduct all of them with materials!”
Six Tu-154 passenger planes!
That was 24 million rubles!
Commander Anton's breathing quickened slightly after hearing Chen Yu's words. He hadn't expected Chen Yu to have such a huge appetite.
6 planes, 24 million rubles!
As a commander, he did not dare to imagine how much wealth it was!
Soon, Chen Yu thought. At most, in another half a year, you'll see a scene where Ruble finds it hard to wipe his butt.
However, as the big brother of the capitalist camp, the ruble was still particularly strong.
Just like China, they also had a planned economy, so the purchasing power of money was quite strong!
Commander Anton looked hesitant. He and the staff officer continued discussing the details to see if they could get six aircraft for Chen Yu.
If they really reached a deal, Chen Yu would continue to provide him with supplies. Perhaps, he could even provide him with something else.
"Chen, there are only four Tu-154s for sale, but I can get you two Tu-154Ms at the same price.”
Commander Anton and the staff officer discussed and decided to attach two Tu-154M reconnaissance planes from the 8th Air Force.
Although this kind of reconnaissance plane was not as profitable as a passenger plane, the electronic radar and voice control system on it were all high-tech in the capitalist camp. It was most suitable to resist the prying eyes of capitalists!
Hearing this, Chen Yu's heart stirred. Tu-154Ms were electronic reconnaissance aircraft. In the later generations, China had even spent a high price to purchase two Tu-154Ms for air defense.
It was equipped with multiple radomes, antennae, electronic warfare equipment, and a synthetic aperture radar system.
This system was comparable to the United States Air Force's E-8 joint surveillance and target attack radar system!
China's air defense has never had a technological breakthrough. The beautiful country's reconnaissance planes have entered our airspace without any restraint. The Soviet Union has anti-aircraft guns that can shoot down them from a distance. We can only watch as the other party comes and goes without obstruction. If there is a Tu-154M, it will definitely be of great help to China's air defense technology!
4 million rubles for a Tu-154M reconnaissance plane, I can agree!
"Commander Anton, four Tu-154 passenger planes and two Tu-154M reconnaissance planes can all be deducted with materials. I will deliver the materials in the next four months.”
"But I have another request."
After saying this, Chen Yu paused for a moment. Commander Anton nodded, indicating for him to continue.
"I want to bring the two Tu-154M reconnaissance planes back first!”
Chen Yu's intention was to use a batch of supplies to exchange for two airplanes. This was undoubtedly a test of Commander Anton's trust.
The Tu-154M was the most advanced reconnaissance aircraft in the Soviet Union. Its radar system was enough to compete with the air force of the United States.
If Chen Yu didn't deliver the supplies to Moscow on time after bringing them back, they wouldn't be able to do anything.
Commander Anton couldn't help but have a solemn expression on his face after hearing Chen Yu's words. Chen Yu's request was a little overboard, so he subconsciously wanted to reject it.
