Chapter 165: A Different Take-off Group
Listening to Mahmood's words, several middle-aged people couldn't help but hesitate a little on their faces, but they still nodded reluctantly, indicating that they understood.
However, seeing this situation, Mahmoud shook his head with a wry smile: "You still don't understand what I mean, I know that you used to study aviation technology knowledge in the United States and Russia, and later were sent to France, Germany and Japan for further study through the national fund......
As soon as these words came out, several middle-aged people nodded again, but compared with the previous reluctance, this time it seemed much more sincere, Mahmoud couldn't help but smile: "I also know this, and I don't deny that there is still a big gap between China's aviation technology level and the United States, Europe, and Russia, but I still spent more than 2 billion US dollars to invest in their so-called next-generation fighter project, do I think their next-generation fighter will definitely succeed?"
Several middle-aged people were a little confused, in their opinion, if Mahmoud had not been fooled, how could he have come up with so much money?
Fortunately, Mahmoud didn't let them wait long, so he slowly continued: "Of course, it would be good if there was a next-generation combat aircraft, even if there were none, it didn't matter, because I fancy China, to be precise, the aviation technology path of Tengfei Group that is in line with our developing countries."
The set of things of the United States, Europe, and Russia is certainly good, but it may not be applicable to every country, especially a developing country like ours with a relatively weak industrial base.
The eight Su-30MKI fighters are a good combat force wherever they are placed, but they were driven away by Pakistan's two JZB-119 training planes that are still in the testing stage. ”
As soon as the words fell, Mahmoud raised his eyes and looked at the middle-aged people opposite: "Do you think the workers in our country are much better than those in New Delhi? Or do you think that the conduct of those politicians and bureaucrats will be cleaner than those in New Delhi?"
As soon as these words came out, the aviation technology experts on the other side who were counted in Algeria stopped talking, although the Algerian country is richer than New Delhi, but it is a façade supported by energy, and the actual industrial foundation is half a pound or two in New Delhi, and it is even inferior to New Delhi.
Therefore, if the Su-30 production line is settled in Algeria, it is estimated that the cost of making it will be no better than that of New Delhi, because the aviation industry, even if it is just a simple component assembly, tests the comprehensive ability of a country in all aspects.
However, just when these aviation experts who were urgently recruited by Mahmoud from China frowned one by one and fell into thought, Mahmood's next sentence was like thunder that made them immediately become incredulous: "However, what New Delhi did not do, the Chinese have completed, the performance of the Su-27 they assembled is quite stable, and even began to be completely localized on this basis; at the same time, their No. 10 project has also entered the test flight stage and accelerated the service process."
You must know that this medium-sized combat aircraft belongs to the same order of magnitude as the F-16 and MiG-29, and they all belong to the third-generation combat aircraft.
"This ......"
Several Algerian aviation experts stopped talking, and the countries that can really produce both heavy fighters and medium-sized combat aircraft are only the United States and Russia, and even France and Britain, the two permanent members, are not counted, because France mainly focuses on medium-sized combat aircraft, and heavy fighters have not been considered, but unfortunately the difficulty is too great and the cost is too high, and a few Mirage 4000 prototypes have been built and declared to hit the streets.
Not to mention Britain, in addition to retaining Rolls-Royce's façade, the entire aviation industry has been completely reduced to a spare parts production plant, especially after the patent rights of the Harrier fighter were sold to the Americans, the last glory of the British Empire has completely become history, either relying on the blood transfusion of the American father, or squeezing into the bed of the European friends to steal a little.
Anyway, it is impossible to independently produce combat aircraft, not in this life.
Looking at it this way, the level of China's aviation industry seems to be inferior to those developed countries, but it is among the first-line powerful level.
However, when these Algerian aviation experts had not yet digested the news that China's aviation technology level exceeded expectations, Mahmoud once again threw out a more explosive insider: "Whether it is the No. 10 project or the imitation of the Su-27, Tengfei Group plays a very key role in it, and may even play a leading role." ”
At this time, several Algerian aviation experts were really shocked, you must know that in the public information, the Tengfei Group did not mention participating in the No. 10 project and copying the Su-27, even if it had no military words.
The image has always been to produce some civilian drones, TM-9 small business jets, OEM Brazil's ERJ-140 series regional airliners, produce civil aircraft parts for Airbus and Boeing, and at most change transport aircraft into so-called civilian cargo planes and export them to the third world.
Pure from the inside out, like an innocent girl who is not deeply involved in the world, the kind that dare not resist even if the big man is ravaged by all kinds.
So when Mahmoud told them that the cooperation and partner he was looking for was the Ascendas Group, the aviation experts almost didn't go crazy.
Tengfei Group, a typical innocent foundry in the aviation circle, still builds combat aircraft? And is it the next generation? What are you kidding? Is it that your head has been scraped by an airplane to say such an unreliable bad idea!
As a result, it was not the Tengfei Group that was scraped by the plane, but them, who would have thought that behind the innocent girl who was originally harmless to humans and animals was actually a super female warrior with first-class military value, not only participated in Project 10 and imitated Su-27, but also played an important role in it.
If it were anyone else, these aviation experts might not really believe it, after all, they are the veterans in the circle, and they have much more information than others, the problem is that Mahmoud is not only the deputy director of the Equipment Procurement Bureau of the Ministry of Defense, but his father is a member of the Algerian Intelligence Committee.
In addition, their Mahmoud family has a close relationship with Pakistan, and Pakistan and China are iron buddies of pure iron, so Mahmoud naturally has much more things than them, so although the Tengfei Group in Mahmood's mouth is not the same as they imagined, they can't help but believe it.
