Chapter 407: Scheme

How China Aviation Technology and the Pakistani delegation negotiated with the Rongcheng Aircraft Development Center is really not something that Wang Zhengguo can know, but judging from the small amount of information revealed by Chief Wen, it seems that this project has a lot of oil and water.

The person in charge of AVIC hopes to take this opportunity to reverse the image of the Republic of China as a low-cost military product, and the Pakistani side does not have much choice, so the two sides set the purchase unit price at more than $20 million from the beginning.

The Chinese side quoted a unit price of 24 million yuan, while the Pakistani side is constantly bargaining, hoping to maintain the unit price at the threshold of 20 million US dollars.

In fact, the price of more than 20 million US dollars in the early nineties was probably considered a first-line level, and I didn't see that the American F-16A/B model was just this price?

In addition to the French who grabbed money, those crazy people were able to buy the Mirage 2000 for $30 million, so sometimes it is really enviable, why the performance of French aircraft is only in the middle and low, and the price is striving to be upstream.

It is not unreasonable to be able to set the price to the $20 million level this time.

First of all, the service life of the Qingcheng engine has reached European and American standards, so it will be very worry-free in the subsequent life cycle, which is completely different from the traditional military fighters of the Republic.

According to this plan, the Pakistani side can purchase up to 50 Jian-10B with the remaining $1 billion in funds, which is probably only the establishment of three fighter squadrons, and it will definitely not be able to meet Pakistan's demand for high-performance fighters anyway, and it is very likely that additional purchases will be made in the future.

Wang Zhengguo also gave some ideas to Chief Wen, such as asking General Wen to suggest to the Pakistani side that Pakistan had paid for the production of F-16A/B fighter jets that had been seized in the United States to resell them to other interested countries.

For example, Kuwait, which has just completed the great cause of recovering the country, is preparing to strengthen its military capability at this time, and because of the eye-catching performance of American fighters in the previous Gulf War, Kuwait has set a wide range of targets for the purchase of air force fighters in the United States after the restoration of the country.

If nothing goes wrong, Twitt will eventually choose to purchase F-18C/D fighter jets, but if Pakistan proposes to sell the brand-new F-16s seized in the United States, I am afraid Kuwait will have to think about it.

First of all, Pakistan is the most powerful thug among the Arab countries, and contributed a lot in the Gulf War, and Twitt owes a favor.

Now the Pakistani side has a problem that Twitt needs to help solve, and this batch of F-16s was originally a brand new production, as long as Kuwait chooses to take over, it can immediately receive fighters, and even directly hire Pakistani F-16 fighter pilots, which can immediately form an air defense force against Iraq.

It may be that the F-16A/B is a little backward, but this batch of aircraft is not impossible to upgrade, after all, the F-16Block15OCU can hit medium-range bombs, and the airframe structure is relatively advanced.

Now that the Gulf War is over, the rebuilding of the Twitt Air Force is urgent, and as long as Twitt takes over this batch of orders, General Dynamics will have the opportunity to get fighter upgrade orders, and even follow-up additional purchases are entirely possible.

So far, the general dynamics company's own capital chain problems have been gradually exposed, and it is in a hurry to ask for money.

The upper plane was acquired by Lockheed in 1993 because of lack of money, if Twitt can be won now, as long as it is managed well, maybe it is also a way to save itself, Wang Zhengguo concluded that General Dynamics will definitely carry out various activities in the United States, and strive to promote the transfer of these detained F-16 fighter jets.

As long as Kuwait can take over these F-16s, Pakistan's more than $600 million in funds will most likely be returned.

If the 600 million US dollars are invested in the J-10B fighter procurement plan, it will be about 30 orders, adding up to a total of 80 aircraft, which is enough to arm 5 Pakistani fighter squadrons, and from then on, it can take over the main position of F-16 fighters and become the top third-generation fighter of Pakistan.

You must know that the radar prepared for the J-10B fighter in China is an airborne active phased array, and if this thing appears in service with the Pakistan Air Force, it can completely beat all Indian models in service.

At this time, the first prototype of the active phased array radar had been completed, and the preliminary test results were quite good.

Except for the high power consumption and relatively high cost of the radar, it is superior to the domestic active/research airborne radar in other aspects, and even made the military hesitate to sell it to Pakistan, after all, this thing is too advanced.

The situation seems to be as expected by the parties, after the Pakistani side visited the test aircraft performance of the No. 10, and learned more about the relevant design of the J-10B fighter, and was even allowed to visit the final assembly plant to see the J-10B fighter that has entered the late production stage.

Savvy Pakistan is well aware that this military fighter is excellent in terms of performance, with a single performance that can completely overwhelm the Indian side, and it also has the medium-range air combat capability that Pakistan can only dream of.

The first batch of F-16Block 15s in service on the Pakistani side did not have the ability to launch medium-range bombs, so in the second batch of procurement plans in 1989, a new OCU (i.e., operational upgrade) was proposed to ensure medium-range air combat capabilities.

It is a pity that the United States detained these planes, and Pakistan could only watch in a hurry.

On the upper plane, it was not until after the introduction of the JF-17 that Pakistan had the first medium-range air combat capability, and that was actually after 2000, during which the Pakistan Air Force also missed a lot of good plays.

Now the Republic has stated that as long as Pakistan purchases the J-10B, it can sell all types of missiles of the Thunderbolt-11 and Thunderbolt-8/9 series.

From the point of view of the plan given by the republic, it is indeed very drooling, all the combat capabilities of the previous purchase of F-16Block15OMU can be obtained here, although the price is also contrary to the cost-effective image of the previous republic's military fighters, but it can't withstand the good performance of this aircraft, and even immediately make a decision to procure.

....

Wang Zhengguo knows very little about the process of Pakistan's procurement of J-10B fighter jets, and he is receiving a group of experts in the field of semiconductor electronics from the imperial capital who have come to visit and inspect the above, and the two sides will have a week-long in-depth exchange and summit discussion.

Alfred was the founder of the Second Research Institute of the Soviet Union Electronics Industry, and played an absolutely important role in the development of the Soviet Union's computer industry.

In addition, there are many elites in the Soviet semiconductor integrated circuit industry accompanying them, so this time the technical team is very large, and it is more professional than the team led by Chief Master Tujida on the side of the Republic.

After coming to Rongcheng, they did not stay too long, and the expedition team did not have any interest in the Republic avionics technology, which was of interest to the Soviet high-level, and they seemed to have other plans.

A group of people came to Kaiyang Semiconductor, under the leadership of Chief Engineer Ni Guangnan, entered the Kaiyang 610 processor production plant, and visited the 1-micron process technology that was already somewhat backward at this time, and even so, it was still recognized by the Soviet Union as a generation ahead of Soviet technology.
