Chapter 172: Mi-26 Helicopter, Stunning Domestic Air Force

"Hello, Mr. Mawei! I often hear your name in China." Chen Hongshen shook hands with Mawei enthusiastically. Even though the two met for the first time today, they still felt particularly friendly.

"Really, Mr. Chen Hongshen, you're not talking bad about me, right?" Ma Wei said jokingly. Now his psychological quality is already very strong. No matter which country's senior officials are facing, they can usually deal with it calmly.

"Haha, how could that happen! Mr. Mawei, they all have too much time to praise you!" Chen Hongshen said with a hearty smile.

It was the first time that the group of Air Force officers standing behind him saw their leader talking to a young man so enthusiastically! Before that, they all had a serious face, as if someone else owed him money and didn't pay it back...

Ma Wei can have such respect and treatment all because of his strength and merits. It has nothing to do with his age.

"Mr. Chen Hongshen, because the journey is long, in order to welcome the arrival of your army, I specially prepared a Mi-26 helicopter at the airport. This way we can save a lot of time on the road." Ma Wei said, signaling everyone to come to the apron next to him.

This time, more than 30 visiting generals came to China. According to normal logic, there are so many people, one helicopter will definitely not be able to sit. After all, the nuclear number of ordinary helicopters is 6 to 7 people. At least five helicopters can transport more than 30 people.

But, however, this logic obviously doesn't work in Russia. Because, at this time, the light gray helicopter parked on the open space of the apron was more than ten times the size of an ordinary helicopter! That scale is definitely impressive after watching it!

Even if the Boeing 737 is in front of it, it is like a little brother seeing his brother, and is very embarrassed.

The Mi-26 helicopter is a Russian type-one dual-engine multi-purpose transport helicopter. It is also the largest and heaviest helicopter in service in the world today. NATO code name is: halo, translation: halo.

The length is 40 meters (Boeing 737 is 37.8 meters in length), the rotor diameter is 32 meters, the height is 8.14 meters, and the maximum take-off weight is 56 tons! The maximum flight speed is 295 kilometers per hour...

Its superior performance not only can perform many military tasks, but also has excellent performance in emergency rescue and disaster relief and support areas. After all, its nuclear capacity can accommodate 80 fully armed soldiers or 60 wounded lying on stretchers. It can be said that it is a super giant in the helicopter industry...

Seeing such a huge big guy stopping in front of him. Almost all of the more than 30 Chinese Air Force officers, including Chen Hongshen, were shocked by the picture and couldn't speak.

When I recalled the military helicopters I had seen, the Mi-26 in front of me was really unaware of the sight. At the same time, it also allowed the Chinese officers present to deeply understand the strong strength of the Russian Air Force.

"Mr. Mawei, your country's Mi-26 helicopter is really spectacular! If conditions permit, I really want to introduce it to our Air Force." Chen Hongshen said in admiration for Mi-26. This giant in front of him can buy a good sedan for two hours of flight...

"It's okay, Mr. Chen Hongshen, if your army likes it, I can send you two more helicopters like this." Ma Wei said without pressure.

The Mi-26 helicopter is sold at $9.2 million per aircraft, but the construction cost is only $950,000. This is really a piece of cake for Mawei. After all, he can buy these helicopters at a lower price through relationships. It’s just that you can give it to others, but you can’t resell it and make a profit.

When I heard Ma Wei so enthusiastic and generous, I wanted to send two Mi-26s in the Air Force, and the group of Air Force officers standing in front of me. In an instant, I looked at Ma Wei with a relaxed expression. I felt that this Russian young man was very on the road and very friendly...

But unfortunately, after thinking about it, the senior general Chen Hongshen politely declined Ma Wei's gift. After all, there is an old Chinese saying that "no reward is not received without merit." For the sake of the image of the Air Force and for the basic etiquette, I am really embarrassed to take Ma Wei's for nothing.

"Mr. Mawei, thank you very much for your kindness. I am grateful for our Air Force's kindness! But as soon as we met, I am really embarrassed to accept such a heavy gift!" Chen Hongshen said quite calmly. Just like he is a human being, he rarely has the kind of obliqueness.

When he heard the leader rejecting Ma Wei's kindness, the group of air force officers standing behind him couldn't help but look at me and I looked at you, and his expression became dim.

From their eyes, it was obvious that they wanted to say, "Two Mi-26 helicopters, hey! Boss! More than 18 million US dollars! If you say no, don't... If you don't feel sorry, we still feel sorry!"

Faced with Chen Hongshen's rejection, Ma Wei nodded with understanding. Anyway, no matter whether he accepts or not, Ma Wei will definitely send these two Mi-26 helicopters out afterwards. Just think that he supports his domestic intentions.

"Mr. Chen Hongshen, I understand, then let's get on the helicopter." Ma Wei said to the Chinese Air Force. It was the first time he was riding the Mi-26 helicopter, and I don't know how he felt.

"Okay, Mr. Mawei." Chen Hongshen nodded after hearing this. He and Mawei were sitting in the cockpit, which is the first-class seat of the Mi-26. Generally, other helicopters do not have such a position, and can accommodate the captain and co-pilot at most.

When Ma Wei and Shen Hongshen entered the cockpit, they saw a long row of instruments and buttons designed on the aircraft console. The conspicuous helicopter steering wheel was slightly smaller than that of the car. Many metal levers and metal buttons with unknown functions made Ma Wei a little dazzled...

"Hello, Mr. Ma Wei, please wear a seat belt, we're going to set off soon." The captain signaled to Ma Wei and Shen Hongshen, and wear a seat belt and earmuffs.

Helicopters are not private jets, their directional changes are very flexible. They often make people riding clearly feel that gravity is aggravated or temporarily lose weight, which is a bit like a rotating roller coaster in an amusement park. Generally, timid people dare not take this thing.

After everyone tied up the safety equipment, the 32-meter-diameter rotor gradually began to rotate. The air around was stirred by the propeller.

Mawei sat in the cockpit and saw the dust on the ground, blowing around by the terrifying wind speed. Soon he felt the helicopter flying away from the ground and accelerated and flew away from the airport platform.
