Sending off his father, Wang Zhengguo also chose to leave Xiangjiang, although the itinerary of this business trip has been completely messed up, but fortunately, the final time has not changed, and it is still in September 1983 to meet Shudu.

I also thought a lot along the way, such as the Gemini project, which seems to be very feasible at present, but to talk about the difficulty of implementation and subsequent development, according to Wang Zhengguo's understanding of the new generation of military fighter projects in South Africa in the future, I am afraid that even if there is technical support from the Republic this time, it may not be able to act against the sky in the end.

Although the South African carver project did not receive technical support from the Republic, a group of French aeronautical engineers were obtained in the middle of the project, and these high-paid Mirage 2000 fighter developers were not necessarily technically weaker than the Republic's technicians, at least in technology.

But then again, it seems that those fighters developed with French technical support have no good end in the end, not only the fighter project is gone, but even the country is buried with it.

First of all, Yugoslavia's light fighter, which was also launched in the eighties, duck aerodynamic design, single engine, and official support from Dassault, but unfortunately finally ushered in the disintegration of Yugoslavia.

In addition, the South African carver project was also secretly supported by Dassault, and a large number of technicians came to support, and the final result was that South Africa also became a country that was willing to degenerate and blacken.

So from this point of view, it is possible to make an irresponsible joke, those who hope to develop their aviation industry with the help of France, or break this idea as soon as possible.

It's not that the French Dassault wants to deliberately trap you, but that Dassault is born with a negative BUFF, as long as he takes a sip of milk, he will definitely be poisoned, and the aviation poisoned milk Dassault, which sounds very reasonable.

Replacing Dassault with a republic, such a situation may have a good result, at least the republic is not a poisonous milk, and when it comes to China-Pakistan cooperation Thunder and K-8, this is a successful case.

Returning to the topic, the blackening of South Africa is a doomed result, and it is inevitable that the government authorities will not be able to support the huge armaments and military scientific research after the 90s, and is it possible for the republic at that time to take over the South African program, which is almost complete?

The answer is obviously yes, as a project that was originally a Gemini project with No. 10, it is up to 50% of the degree of commonality, and there is no positioning contradiction between the two, if the Republic takes over the project, only a small amount of investment is needed to complete the research and development in the future.

After taking over the South African plan, look at the No. 10 project, if you want air superiority and volleying, use type A, if you want multi-purpose, type B, and the subsequent escalating numbers will go down according to the C/D, E/F model, what do you need at that time? The huge and perfect No. 10 family fully meets the requirements.

Even Pakistan in the 90s did not have to bother anymore and directly purchased this multi-purpose J-10 program prepared for South Africa to ensure that it could meet its needs, so it really did not see any reason for Pakistan to continue to be blind to the F-16.

The more I think about it, the more reliable it is, this is simply perfect, maybe the current old Comrade Wang can't think of these problems, but as long as Wang Zhengguo is clear, this time we must promote South Africa's plan and firmly push forward the Gemini project.

Not only that, but also have to find a way to solve the powertrain problem, at least the current Spey is just barely saving, if you really want to compete in the international market in the nineties, a relatively reliable engine must not be less, not to mention as powerful as the American engine, but you must at least reach the thrust-to-weight ratio data of 31F.

Therefore, in terms of the current situation and existing conditions, it is indispensable to carry out follow-up upgrades for Spey engines, and in the development roadmap of Spey that often appears in the military arena in the future, the use of TF-41 engine technology can also be expected to upgrade a quasi-third-generation push.

It just so happens that now South Africa's investment must first go through the scientific research fund, so it is completely possible to take this opportunity to get in touch with Rolls-Royce, and the big deal is to give Rolls-Royce all the $500 million he got from South Africa this time, then he must also get the information of the TF-41 and complete the upgrading and improvement of the military Spey.

It may be that this engine, which has been positioned for passenger aircraft and attack aircraft from the very beginning, is not as good as the F-100 and this mature shrew, but it is better than nothing, from the civilian Spey - military Spey - TF-41, which has been improved many times, and has been more in line with military standards in all aspects.

As long as it is not too demanding, and then make some targeted improvements, in fact, it is enough! An engine must always have its own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages, and this must still be accepted.

Besides, as long as there is a military push of its own, the Maozi 31F engine will not dare to raise its price, and it will be an engine supplier honestly.

That is to say, as long as the country can come up with a usable large-push military aircraft, it is completely possible to use the F-16 mode, one model is suitable for two engines, and the two engines are also distinctive, and customers can choose at will.

The plan is perfect, it seems that it is really necessary to calculate well this time, as long as the project can be done well, it is not a dream at all for No. 10 to become a classic model that sells well at home and abroad, and there will be no more embarrassing situation like a face.

Before that, it is necessary to determine whether South Africa is willing to take the bait, whether the domestic high-level can recognize that the Shudu Institute will take over the cooperation project, and whether Wang Zhengguo can lead the follow-up development route of the Spey engine project.

.......

Back to Shudu, you can temporarily put down the South African cooperation project, it is already September, it is currently the harvest season, although the new plant of Shuhang Optics has not been fully completed, but the production lines inside have been installed in place.

Visiting the inside of the factory, Ding Yibo proudly explained: "We have trained the workers through the old production line directly to the production, only with the current production capacity of Shuhang, we can finally meet the existing orders at hand, with the market that continues to develop later, we can slowly increase production capacity step by step." ”

Through more than two months of running-in, Ding Yibo has successfully taken over the burden of the director of Shuhan Optics Factory, capacity expansion, production regularization, these work are far from being comparable to the era of Wang Zhengguo.

Very satisfied, even very satisfied: "Director Ding is indeed talented, in just two months to achieve capacity expansion and factory system regularization, this year's year-end bonus, you can't lose yourself!"

Confirming that Shuhang, the only source of cash income, has been regularized, and the production capacity of sunglasses can meet the current market demand, he continued.

"It seems that there is no problem with sunglasses, but what about the goggles and myopia glasses project, which are also two huge markets that cannot be ignored, goggles you have seen, it is the pioneer of our entry into the military market, and there must be no mistakes. ”
