The Super Seven Project was originally intended to cooperate with Pakistan.

Xie Kai's appearance brought the project forward by several years, while Pakistan was not under so much pressure.

What's more, Pakistan has acquired several world-class fighter jets such as the F-16 from the United States, and it has begun to have an advantage against the old enemy next door.

Who knows, the Americans did not deliver well, and until now, there are not a few in Pakistan.

The Indians, on the other hand, have acquired from their old buyers more fighters than the American F-16s, which claim to be in the same advanced category as the American F-16s.

Relying only on the aging J-6 and J-7, there is no way to compete with the Pakistanis.

These thoughts flashed quickly through Xie Kai's mind.

He had a big question, "Even if the Soviets agree to sell the MiG-29, can Indian flight instructors be trained in a short time?"

This is also a doubt in the minds of others.

"The air forces of Pakistan and the Soviet Union have had two ......frictions on the border this year," Long explained.

Xie Kai's eyes widened.

In this world, there are so many things he doesn't understand.

I never thought that Pakistan would go to war with the Soviets, did I?

"Since last November, the situation on the battlefield in Afghanistan has changed...... The Soviets and Afghan government forces launched a series of onslaughts to wipe out the resistance in Paktia province, and the war entered a white-hot phase, and the Soviet army, with the air support of the tactical air force, inflicted heavy losses on the Afghan guerrillas, and both the United States and Pakistan began to directly participate in the war......" Long Yaohua said.

When he said this, he looked at Xie Kai with a very meaningful look.

The River Crab Mercenary Group has always been on the battlefield in Afghanistan, and this mercenary group was created by Xie Kai, and now it is even more tossed in Africa.

"Chief, you go on. Xie Kai was a little embarrassed when he saw Long Yaohua looking at himself.

He also thought of the River Crab Mercenary Group.

"Last November, Pakistan sent one of their blowpipe missile squads, but they didn't do much and suffered heavy casualties. Later, the Afghan guerrillas got a batch of new missiles and shot down more than 18 fixed-wing planes and helicopters in a row within half a month...... "Long Yaohua looked at Xie Kai again.

Those new missiles are obviously avant-garde anti-aircraft missiles developed by 404.

The blowpipe missile is a portable low-altitude defense missile developed by the United Kingdom in the 60s, with a length of 1.35 meters, a launch canister length of 1.4 meters, a bomb weight of 11 kilograms, and a weight of nearly 14 kilograms of the launch canister. The maximum speed of the "Blowpipe" missile is 1.5 times the speed of sound, the effective range of the missile is 4.8 kilometers, and the maximum combat altitude is 1,800 meters.

Originally developed to deal with low-altitude and slow fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters, it can also be used to attack small ships and ground vehicles.

Because of one specialization and multiple abilities, the power is naturally not good.

"The blowpipe is too far behind. "Xie Kai simply did not look down on the British individual anti-aircraft missiles of the sixties.

If it was professional air defense, he would still care.

"As a result, the Soviet Army and the Afghan Air Force have attacked Afghan refugee camps in Pakistan with increased frequency, while constantly invading Pakistani airspace...... Long Yaohua said.

The real intention of the Soviet Union to invade Afghanistan was not to overthrow Amin and prop up the Karmal puppet regime, but everyone knows the real intention.

On the one hand, Afghanistan's strategic location is too important, located in the center of the Asian continent, at the crossroads of West, South and Central Asia. By controlling this place, the Soviet Union could realize its long-cherished wish of "washing boots in the Indian Ocean" by going south. In particular, with the mediation of the United States, Israel shook hands with Egypt and made peace, and the position of the United States in the Middle East soared rapidly, and the Soviet Union was in a disadvantageous position.

In order to gain strategic advantages, it is necessary to open up direct access to the Indian Ocean.

The second aspect is the encirclement of China.

Sino-Soviet relations have always been very bad before this, and the border has always been full of Chen soldiers, and there is always the idea of invading China.

Before the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, China had begun reform and opening up and normalized relations with the United States and other Western countries.

The United States was originally trying to win over China to counter the Soviet Union.

By opening up the passage to the Indian Ocean, China's connection with the West can be easily cut off in the event of a war.

The more Xie Kai thought about it, the more he felt that the relationship between countries in the international community was too complicated.

"In February, Pakistan deployed the Mirage to Kamala and the F-16 to Samangri and Peshawar as warplanes from the Soviet Union and Afghanistan intruded into its airspace more frequently, and gave greater autonomy to grassroots tactical commanders, electronic warfare technicians and pilots. Since then, a series of encounters have broken out...... "Long Yaohua's gaze is still on Xie Kai.

Xie Kai was speechless.

These things don't seem to have anything to do with him.

But how can India be involved in this?

"Although the two sides constantly encountered each other, and even opened fire frequently, there was no large-scale air battle. There is also a balance between India and Pakistan, but you have upset the balance between Indians and Pakistan...... "Long Yaohua said.

Xie Kai almost scolded his mother.

You didn't mean it at all, right?

In addition, the one who flew the plane was a retired pilot from the Soviet Union.

"Chief, I'm ......" Xie Kai didn't know how to explain.

"It's none of your business. Both sides were already unhappy with the outcome of the third Kashmir war. Long Yaohua said. "That's it, the Soviets offered the Indian MiG-29 in advance. In this way, both the F-16 and the Phantom were defending against the USSR in the north......"

"No, when I came back, I saw the F-16 in Karachi, and the Soviets fought with the Americans, and that's why. Xie Kai's brows furrowed.

It seems like things are too abnormal.

"A new batch of F-16s offered by the Americans. ”

"Now that there is a new batch of F-16s provided by the Americans, they will not be in a hurry to go beyond seven. Xie Kai sighed, Bai was happy just now, "No, Mubara said that their pilots had to get on the plane, and they had to ask the Americans for approval!"

"The Americans are in the war!" Xie Kai was immediately interested.

No wonder the Americans watched the fighters so closely, he almost beat Xie Kai after just staring at them a few times.

That's exciting news.

No one in history has ever known that the Americans participated in the war, but they only knew that the Americans only supported the Afghan guerrillas behind their backs, bought guns and artillery from China to provide them to the Afghan guerrillas, and even trained the backbone of the Afghan resistance groups.

"So what? They are painted Pakistan. "Even if the Soviet Union accuses the United States, the Americans will not admit it." ”

"In this way, Pakistan is in a hurry to want fighters, and there is a reason. Xie Kai said as he licked his lips.

With Pakistan's participation, the research progress of the Super 7 Project will naturally progress faster with sufficient funding.

At the beginning in Karachi, Mubara did have a grudge against those fighters, and also told Xie Kai that the senior generals of their air force department were bent on F-16s, and at first they only ordered 40 aircraft, but the Americans only delivered 15 aircraft, which made Pakistan feel pressure.

At the beginning, he was interested in Xie Kai's Super Seven Dare.

Now the Americans provide a batch of fighters for the use of the Americans themselves, and in the end they have to make the Pakistanis pay for it, who is happy?

The country is small, powerless.

"In the Kashmir region, Pakistan does not have advanced fighter defense, it is all J-6 and J-7, and it was a little difficult to face MiG-21 and MiG-23 and other models at the beginning, but after the two MiG-29s joined, the situation changed. Pakistan was shot down by two J-6s, one J-7...... If it weren't for the numerical superiority of a large number of fighters in the air, coupled with the short range of the MiG-29, the two sides would probably have fought again......" Long Yaohua said.

After the Third Kashmir War, both India and Pakistan were extremely dissatisfied with the outcome of the war.

Kashmir has always been the trigger for the war between the two countries.

"The Americans don't agree, right?" Xie Kai asked, seeing Long Yaohua nodding, he continued, "Our Super Seven can effectively alleviate this situation. ”

"There is a big gap between Super Seven and F-16 and MiG-29. Wang Guilin reminded Xie Kai.

"There is a performance gap, but there is still a great improvement compared to J-6 and J-7, and the defense problem is not too big. ”

"I heard that the Super 7 is the technical verification model of the No. 10 project? If so, it will be difficult for the above to approve your export. After all, this is the export of the whole set of technologies. Long Yaohua said.

It's not to discourage 404.

For the sake of a little development funding, it is absolutely impossible to bring major hidden dangers to national defense.

"Just like the 359 tank, it is also the technical verification of the new generation of domestic tanks, what can't be sold? If the state doesn't give funds, won't we find a way to recover the funds?" Zheng Yucheng immediately became angry.

Even if the old guy is weak, his temper is not small.

Wang Guilin hurriedly persuaded him, and then asked Long Yaohua, "The superiors don't agree?"

"The technology of the 359 tank, a lot of which should not be exported. Long Yaohua also knows that the export of this technology can allow foreign intelligence departments to analyze China's military technology and assess the level of China's technology and equipment.

Xie Kai and the others are also aware of the attitude in China.

Many technologies, even if they rust in China, will not be sold.

It has a lot to do with the idea.

At present, the Super Seven Project is also the best technology integration project in China.

"Chief, don't we have the No. 10 project? There is also the stealth fighter project that is about to be approved, these basic technologies will not leak our military secrets, right?" Xie Kai asked.

If you don't let you buy more than seven, then give you the funds.

"Most of the more than 200 million dollars for engines have been given, and the second batch of Soviet engines is about to enter our warehouses. Zheng Yucheng said, "If you don't let exports, it's okay, the state just gives this fund." Otherwise, we will take back our right to set up our own projects......"
