One MiG-25 was dismantled to the point of being reduced to parts, and the remaining one was parked in the hangar, which was once a nightmare for the Iranian Air Force, until the F-14 Panda provided by the United States did not improve.

The Iranians are all too familiar with this fighter.

Moreover, even with the Panda F-14, such an aircraft puts endless pressure on the Iranian Air Force. The MiG-25 flies higher and faster than the Panda F14, and even maneuverability is not as bad as the outside legend suggests.

What's more, the MiG-25 costs much less than the F-14.

American aircraft with a large number of titanium alloys were clearly not advantageous in terms of price-performance compared with Soviet aircraft made of stainless steel.

The only difference is that the F14 is somewhat more maneuverable, and at the same time, the American avionics system is not comparable to the Soviets, who are backward in the electronics industry.

"Director Liu, who are you?" Canon really didn't think of it.

Liu Yijiu naturally understood what Canon meant. "It's a gathering of all of the country's top fighter jet manufacturers and designers, who are working together to study the technology of the Soviets in high-altitude, high-speed fighters. Then, we use these technologies to improve the performance of our country's fighter jets. The MiG-25 has a maximum range of more than three thousand kilometers, while the F14 has a maximum range of only two and a half thousand kilometers. And speed, I'm sure you know better than we do......"

The MiG-25 in this is a red eyelid even for the Americans.

One of these planes they acquired was nothing more than a defector plane that flew from the Soviet Far East to Japan, and eventually, because the pilots of the fighters flew at high speeds for too long, the engines of the MiG-25 in their hands were scrapped.

The data on this fighter in the hands of the Americans is not comprehensive.

"The avionics system of the Soviets is known to the whole world. We borrowed from the aerodynamic layout of the Soviets. In particular, this kind of aircraft, which can reach a speed of Mach 2.83 and can fly to an altitude of 24,000 meters, if you add the avionics system of the Americans......" Liu Yijiu painted the prospect.

That's what he thought, and that's what he was going to do.

He is reluctant to let the Americans gain too much on this, because the Americans have a good foundation, once a technological breakthrough is made. The entire aviation industry will be upgraded.

The United States is the enemy that China will have to face in the future.

The MiG-25 of the Soviets, all made of stainless steel, not only reduced the production cost, but also greatly improved the performance of the entire fighter. Compared with the United States, which has to use titanium alloy, it is much better, especially for the Chinese.

"At present, the 611 Research Institute under our Ninth Academy is designing a dual-performance fighter with a maximum flight speed of more than Mach 3. What is lacking in the ability to fly up to 30,000 meters at an altitude is the avionics system of the Americans. We've talked to Americans before, and it's not impossible. The only difference is that the price we have to pay is too great. And if we work together, after thorough research, we can not only provide you with better fighters. We can also provide you with notched spare parts. You don't give much, but you get more. And we will also reduce the cost of research and development of new fighters, so that we can provide you with it, and it will also allow you to reduce costs......"

Liu Yijiu didn't wait for the other party to speak, and continued to introduce.

Seeing that the two of them leaked expressions of disbelief, they immediately called Zhu Houdao over. "This is the director of our 611 Aircraft Design Institute. Comrade Zhu Houdao, our high-altitude and high-speed fighter project began in 1974. After acquiring the MiG-25, progress has been made even faster, and work has already begun on the production of demonstrators......"

"Director Liu is right. In the new fighter, we have adopted a completely new aerodynamic layout, and at the same time use more advanced materials than the American F14, and it is not a problem to achieve double three performance indicators...... The only thing is that our country's foundation is too poor, the research time is too short, and there is no experience to learn from in the avionics system. At present, negotiations with the United States on the introduction of F14 fighters and related production technologies are ongoing...... "Zhu Houdao listened to the introduction with his ears pricked up when he was on the side.

He knew that Liu Yijiu wanted to get the F14 from the Iranians, and the cost would be lower than that from the Americans.

For the F14, a more maneuverable heavy fighter with advanced avionics system, Chinese fighter designers have long been hungry.

More than 611 research institutes.

"If we provide you with, can we provide the relevant parts in three years, as you said, and the whole machine in five years? You know, you China introduced the British bass engine a long time ago, and now, have you achieved localization? Samnila's words made Liu Yijiu speechless for a moment.

Even Zhu Houdao has become very embarrassed.

No one wants to face this kind of thing.

It's not that the unit that got the bass engine doesn't have the technical ability, but the leader's mind is not on it.

The J-8 fighter was prepared to be equipped with a domestically produced bass engine from the beginning, and as a result, the state spent money, but the localization of the engine did not succeed.

Soon, Liu Yijiu cleaned up his mood, took a deep breath, and said to the two: "It is true that the complete localization of the bass engine has not been realized, after all, our materials and various basic supporting facilities are not perfect. And our turbofan six, which borrowed a lot of bass engine technology, has been successful until now. And for our new generation fighters, the performance of such an engine is clearly not good. Therefore, in the case of improving the basic support, we are researching the new generation of engine ......"

"What are the performance parameters of your J-8I fighter?" Regarding Liu Yijiu's words, Samnila was noncommittal.

However, Kanon had stayed in Daba Mountain, and knew that what Liu Yijiu said was not a lie, and he was also happy to see that the minister directly asked about the performance parameters of the Jian-8 fighter.

The deeper the cooperation with China, the better.

China's cooperation with the United States is now beginning to become extensive, and it is willing to sell weapons and equipment to Iran, which avoids Iran's lack of equipment sources in the war.

Although Europe is still selling weapons and equipment to Iran, the equipment sold is backward and expensive.

If only it were possible. Canon doesn't mind that all of Iran's troops are equipped with Chinese-made weaponry.

Liu Yijiu was clear about the performance parameters of J-8, but he couldn't say it, but called the designer from Shen Fei on one side. He didn't have much contact with the designers and leaders of other units.

"This is Comrade Zhao Yutong from Shen Fei, who has participated in the whole design of Jian-8, and is currently responsible for Shen Fei's work here." Zhu Houdao faced his side with black-rimmed glasses. The big middle-aged man with a Chinese face, a beard on his face, and a mobile phone oil said.

said to be middle-aged, but in fact he is almost fifty years old.

"Zhao Gong, this is our foreign customer, I am very interested in the J-8 fighter developed by your factory, you can introduce the performance ...... for them" Liu Yijiu greeted the old man with a smile on his face, and then leaned into his ear and whispered. Iranians, we plan to exchange the J-8 for F14 Panda fighters from them......"

"Really? When the time comes......" Hearing F14, Zhao Yutong's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Just like this MiG-25, as long as you are interested, you can participate in the research, and everyone can discuss it with each other." Liu Yijiu said with a smile.

It is simply impossible for a single unit to afford all of China's military industry.

After all, from the very beginning, he had a clear positioning for the Ninth Academy. The armament of these units will involve the three branches of the army, navy and air force, but at the same time. It's just the top.

The top-of-the-line, obviously, price will also be the most expensive.

This is unbearable for the entire Chinese military. China is not as rich as the United States. Even the wealthy United States cannot be equipped with the best fighters.

Weapons and equipment, high and low matching, this is the idea he has always instilled in the military bigwigs.

So. From the beginning, other units hoped to participate in the research of the MiG-25, and Liu Yijiu did not refuse.

Anyway, they didn't plan to copy this high-altitude and high-speed fighter with a poor avionics system.

"After more than ten years of hard work, we have successfully developed the J-8II, with a maximum take-off weight of 17,800 kg and a maximum level flight speed of Mach 2.2. The practical ceiling is 20,000 meters, the range is 800 kilometers, the number of aircraft pylons has been increased to 7, and anti-aircraft missiles and auxiliary fuel tanks can be added, which are mainly used for all-weather air defense operations...... "Zhao Yutong began to introduce Shen Fei's latest research results.

"The improved type is out?" Liu Yijiu was surprised, but he didn't ask.

According to his understanding, this improved version will not make its first flight until 84, and the design will be finalized in 88.

"Where's the radar?" Samnila raised a question that Chinese airline staff were most reluctant to face.

Seeing that Zhao Yutong was silent, Liu Yijiu said with a smile, "Pulse Doppler radar, full waveform, with down-looking/down-firing capabilities!" ”

Liu Yijiu's words immediately made Zhao Yutong look surprised, and stared at him with suspicious eyes.

China is still in a blank area in this regard, and even the 1471, which is not a full-waveform radar, but only has two types of pulse repetition rates, is also daunted by the technical difficulty of Comrade Bende, the chief engineer. As a backup of the 1471 radar, the Changhong plant also began to develop the 204 radar with interception capability on the basis of the 208. Even if it is only a single-pulse fire control radar, it does not have the ability to look down and shoot, but the development work is still not smooth, and it can be said that there are many difficulties.

Liu Yijiu boasted about Haikou here, and he was able to fool the Iranians for a while, and in front of real experts, all this was in vain.

"Isn't there a blank space in China on this front? Director Liu, this joke can't be made. Samnila immediately said coldly.

He also did his job in the intelligence of the Chinese side.

From the very beginning of his contact with China, he has been collecting a lot of relevant information about China's military equipment technology.

The technology of the Chinese is far worse than that of the entire United States, the Soviet Union and Europe.

After all, the technology of the Chinese is all derived from the technology of the Soviet Union in the fifties, and after ten years of turmoil in the country, there are not many technological achievements at all.

"I'm not kidding. Even if they don't, we can provide you with fighters equipped with pulse-Doppler radar. At the same time, the performance of the J-8 fighter can be greatly improved. Liu Yijiu sighed in his heart.

Originally, I wanted to ignore Shen Fei and let them go on the same path by themselves.

However, being looked down upon by a country like Iran, which has to purchase all equipment from abroad, made him feel a nameless anger in his heart.

"If this is the case, we can consider exchanging the F14 for the J-8 fighter, and at the same time, a batch of purchase orders will be placed. Director Liu, our procurement in China has always been through your ......," Samnila said to Liu Yijiu very seriously.

And in front of other people.

After saying this, a trace of frivolity appeared on his face, "I wonder when Director Liu will be able to deliver it to us?" As long as an agreement is reached, within a month, we will be able to arrange for the flight of fighters through Pakistan to China! ”

Liu Yijiu did not know the specific situation of Jian-8.

Whether the J-8II has made its first flight, he is not clear at all, and if it makes its first flight, it is easy to say anything.

If there is not even the first flight, even if he can provide radar, it is useless.

Now it's not just about interests, it's about the reputation of the whole country.

China's military industry must not lose face in the face of a country like Iran, which has a huge potential for procurement.

"One year. After all, we are not yet in mass production! If you are willing to accept our domestic active J-8, it will also be delivered within a month! Liu Yijiu gritted his teeth and said.

Hearing that Liu Yijiu was angry with the Iranians, Zhao Yutong immediately became a little anxious, this young man didn't know how difficult it was to study radar, and he didn't know that radar research would have to go through a long experiment.

immediately pulled Liu Yijiu aside, and said to this young man who had heard about it countless times but met for the first time with a distressed expression, "Director Liu, there is no need to be angry with them. The J-8II has just begun its first flight, and the radar research work is very difficult, because in this way, it has not even been finalized......"

Seeing that Zhao Yutong was anxious for himself, Liu Yijiu was very pleased.

I'm afraid I'll meet a white-eyed wolf.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with the historical data, and the technicians of this era are pure technicians.

"Don't worry, Zhao Gong, as long as the first flight is made, it will not be a problem, we started radar research in this area a few years ago, and we have made a breakthrough, if necessary, we will be able to produce a verification radar within a month and install it on your platform." The special situation of our unit makes it impossible for us to leak these technologies...... "Liu Yijiu could not tell Zhao Yutong that they had a better one in their hands -- an active phased array radar. (To be continued......)

PS: I'm really sorry, my daughter had a fever last night, Hulu and his wife almost didn't sleep all night, took my daughter to the hospital during the day, didn't come back until noon, slept for a while in the afternoon, and then changed his wife to sleep, and was busy until dinner. It's only been updated now, so I'm sorry everyone.

There should only be two chapters today, and if there is something tomorrow, it is estimated that there will only be two chapters. I hope you understand and support Hulu, thank you!
