It is very likely that the UAE will directly find AVIC Southwest to discuss the order of the J-18 directly after the heavy air superiority fighter project is settled, which makes Yang Hui have to pay attention to it, standing on Yang Hui's current position, he personally even feels that the problem of the current ditch crisis is not as important as the current UAE order. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At least he knows that the final ditch crisis will not evolve into a full-scale hot war, so there must be no need to worry about the problem, on the contrary, this time the UAE's super large order is full of twists and turns, and the previous person has not been exposed to this arms purchase case, so now Yang Hui does not have any prophetic advantage, so he can only do his best to win the project.

"Secretary, immediately contact me with Vice Chairman Liu, the imperial capital, this time the situation is very unusual, I must ask the above for instructions, we must strive for more freedom, the UAE's billions of large orders must not fly like this."

.....

"Mr. Yang, Vice Chairman Liu's phone has been connected, please!"

Pick up the phone, there is no need to restrain anything, firstly, Yang Hui's own position level is high enough, and secondly, it is also because Yang Hui and Vice Chairman Liu have been friends for nearly ten years.

"Vice Chairman Liu, I am Yang Hui of AVIC Southwest, and I will trouble you again this time, the main thing is this, it was not the army that required the specific performance data of the J-18 to be kept confidential out of the need for confidentiality, so we suspended the bidding for fighter jets in the United Arab Emirates, and now the problem is that the situation has changed .........."

With the ins and outs of the matter clear, Vice Chairman Liu on the other end of the phone also fell into contemplation, he didn't expect the current situation to become so dramatic, originally thought that even if the J-18 was not restricted by the country, it should be difficult to win the project after participating in the bidding, but now I found out that the real situation is that the UAE actually belongs to the J-18, so it is very embarrassing.

If it is really as Yang Hui said just now, in fact, it is not impossible to sell J-18 fighters to the United Arab Emirates, at least from the current development of the ditch crisis, it may not be as bad as imagined, and this time according to Yang Hui, it is a large order of up to 5 billion US dollars, and the profit after winning the project is definitely a lot, and this 5 billion US dollars is also an extremely important and valuable foreign exchange.

In fact, the current question must depend on the performance of AVIC Southwest, and the final approval or non-sale depends on what kind of answer AVIC Southwest can give later, and I only hope that everyone can get a good result.

"Regarding the issue of J-18 decryption and sale, I don't think it's impossible, but I have a question here that you need to answer truthfully, and I will determine whether I agree to the limited decryption of the J-18 to the UAE based on your answer. Listen first: now the J-18 is in the initial finalized production state, it is more like an attack aircraft, the reason is that the performance of its engine does not meet the predetermined standards, so when will your turbofan 12b engine be finalized, and after the engine is finalized, when can the complete version of the J-18 multi-role fighter be finalized? ”

Saying everything else is a bit of a fiction, only now AVIC Southwest can come up with real materials, such as the same J-18 fighter, if AVIC Southwest can complete the performance of the J-18C/D model in the next five years, then the situation is completely different.

Careful calculation knows that if the J-18-C/D can be guaranteed to complete the finalized design within five years, then the domestic Navy and Air Force can purchase the new J-18 after five years, and before that, if AVIC Southwest can take the order of the United Arab Emirates, it will inevitably be about seventy or eighty, and the scale of such an order will be enough to maintain the production of J-18 fighters at a normal speed in AVIC Southwest for three to four years, that is to say, the middle three to four years do not need domestic orders, and the J-18 production line can also be fed.

In this way, it means that the country does not need to place an order to purchase the initial model of J-18, anyway, the initial model performance of J-18 is also somewhat flawed, which is unbearable for the republican ** side that wants to squeeze every bit of performance of the fighter, J-18 is really positioned as a multi-role fighter, and it is best to be able to perform patrol and air interception missions in peacetime, and these requirements are definitely difficult to meet for the turbofan 12A engine.

If China no longer purchases the initial J-18 model, will there be any big problem for AVIC Southwest to sell the initial model to the United Arab Emirates?

Anyway, the UAE has also purchased a special air superiority fighter this time, and it will definitely not let the J-18 carry out the air superiority mission in the future, after all, the whole country is only a little bigger, so the J-18 in the UAE is almost a long-legged attack aircraft, and this can be met with the J-18.

The military's ideas still have time to be carefully figured out, but this does not prevent Yang Hui from telling the truth, for the follow-up upgrade and improvement of the J-18, this is easy to say: "Regarding the problem of the J-18C/D fighter, we expect to complete the design and finalization work around 2000, and at that time we can be regarded as completing the design goals set at the beginning of the project, and this progress is no different from the project schedule we set before, so everything is going according to plan." ”

To be able to go according to the predetermined plan, as long as there is this, it is enough, and now that the situation of all parties is comprehensive, Vice Chairman Liu feels that it can still be appropriately relaxed.

"Well, I will approve your request this time, and the secrecy of the J-18 can be relaxed to a limited extent, but the visiting inspectors from the UAE must be carefully screened, I think it is best to wait for a while, and then talk in depth after the island has stopped."

Yang Hui said that this does not seem to be a difficult problem, anyway, it is already September 95, and there will be at most half a year on the opposite island to stop, and if you want to come to the United Arab Emirates, you should not be too anxious, Yang Hui really dare not compliment the efficiency of the princes in the Middle East.

However, when it comes to the problem of stopping the island, Yang Hui feels that there are some things that can be used, such as .....

"Speaking of the problem on the island, then I don't know when the army plans to transfer the dozens of J-18s stationed in our factories back to their respective stations, like now, our tarmac is already full, and now it's time to solve the problem."

The J-18 is transferred back to the station, that must refer to the front-line troops transferred back to the southeast coast, only after these fighters return to the station, it is possible to show their faces in the future large-scale exercises and operations, and there are still many new toys developed and delivered to the army by AVIC Southwest that have not yet been unveiled, and this time since the J-18 is ready to be exported, then the muscles should be shown in actual combat conditions.

However, answering Yang Hui's news, I don't know whether it is happy or worried, because the microphone came from the other side: "The day when the batch of J-18s will return to the station is also coming soon, but before that, they still need to undergo a special review, and this time the top leaders will personally visit your AVIC Southwest Guiyang Aviation City in a few days to investigate and visit, so these J-18s will be put on for a few more days."
