The Lion Lavi series fighters developed by Israel are light fighters jointly funded by the United States and Israel and developed by Israel Aircraft Industries, which act as low-grade aircraft in the Israeli Air Force's high-low mix, and its main task is close air support and interdiction, and the second task is to intercept air defense.

The Lion fighter jet is also tasked with preparing to replace the aging Cub fighter, and several American companies help it manufacture airframe parts and provide aero engines, although the United States is reluctant to develop the Israeli fighter program and refuses to provide it with many important equipment, such as wing wings.

However, the Israeli aviation industry has made great achievements, and has made great progress in radar, early warning, air-to-air, and air-to-surface missiles, especially the electronic warning (EW) system designed by Alta Company, the Alta ARC-740 fully computerized airborne UHF radar system, the TumanTINS1700 advanced inertial navigation system, and the ElbitSMS-86 storage management system. Excellent products in the field of third-generation fighters, such as aeronautical data computers and a series of other Israeli electronic devices!

According to the International Military Magazine, although the flight performance test of the Lion fighter has not been completed, because it uses a lot of advanced technology, it is expected that its main performance is at least equivalent to or even better than that of the F-16C/D!

It is not difficult to understand that the Americans began to obstruct Israel's fighter development plan, after all, such an excellent Lion fighter will enter the stage of mass production after completing the test and finalization, and it will definitely pose a great threat to the F-16C/D and F/A-18C/D export market!

Perhaps there are other factors, Lin Qiangsheng doesn't know much about it, he actually wants to get in touch with the Israel Aircraft Industry Company and establish friendly relations with it, and wait until the Israeli cabinet vetoes the Lion fighter to take over its fighter development team after the research and development!

It would be great if they could see their Lion fighter design now, and if Israel Aircraft Industries allowed Lin to visit their factory and fighter models, he would definitely find a way to bring some domestic fighter design experts to visit it together!

If we say that the Israeli aviation industry is slightly better. With the help of Dassault Systèmes in the early stage, if the Americans provided the main parts and core power in the later stage, the aviation industry in South Africa was quite embarrassed and even overstretched.

Now the situation in South Africa is somewhat similar to China, the defense industry is very backward, and it is still at the technological level of the sixties and seventies, South Africa's aviation industry has neither the support of developed countries nor the key power system, and South Africa is now in great need of advanced technology like China. However, the developed countries can secretly exchange it for something that they are interested in, but the field of aircraft engine and fighter aircraft manufacturing is extremely strict with South Africa!

However, Lin Qiangsheng still has to be very cautious if he wants to contact South Africa's intelligence agencies and defense and military enterprises, and the white government in South Africa has long been extremely resistant to China, so Lin Qiangsheng must be very careful not to reveal his identity when he contacts them.

At the same time as contacting Israeli intelligence, Lin Qiangsheng also contacted South Africa's aviation industry company, Atlas Aircraft Company. In the future, the helicopter gunship manufactured by this company is very good, and it is quite high in the world ranking, and it is the Ishcha Falcon gunship!

In order to get in touch with South Africa's intelligence services and military enterprises, Lin Qiangsheng disguised himself as an international broker who resold military technology. South Africa is also a hotspot for international intelligence organizations, with many countries buying Soviet-made weapons and exchanging technology from them.

In order to be like eyes and ears, Lin Qiangsheng also deliberately made himself a Taiwan. b. The illusion of intelligence officers confuses them. As for whether the South Africans believe that they will investigate him afterwards, it doesn't matter if they cooperate or a one-shot deal, but as long as the South Africans agree to it, Lin Qiangsheng can make them want to stop begging him to cooperate with them again!

In 84, Israel began to secretly support and assist South Africa in improving the Cheetah fighter, because it felt that it was difficult to continue to develop the Lion fighter, and the Americans did not provide the main components as a reason, and Israel's economy showed some bad signs in this year, and the reduction in funds also made the Israelis' third-generation fighter program unsustainable, and the budget greatly exceeded the expectations of the Jews, so helping South Africa develop a fighter became an option. It's kind of a spare tire with a bottom.

When South Africa's defense intelligence received a report from Atlas Aircraft, it was taken aback that a guy with aircraft engine technology approached the company and offered to exchange technology.

Aviation experts in particular learned about it through the catalog. This person has in his hands the technical data, experimental data and design routes of many turbofan engines, and these research experiences are extremely much needed by Atlas Aircraft!

However, the other side also has a very high demand, to exchange Soviet-made weapons and related research materials in South Africa's possession, and also wants some advanced weapons that South Africa has produced, and the other side proposes to settle in US dollars!

The general manager of Atlas did not dare to specialize after learning of the experts' analysis, and hurriedly reported to the Ministry of Defense.

The technical intelligence department soon learned that Atlas Aircraft technicians had studied and analysed the technical catalogue provided. It was found that there were a number of new composite materials for turbofan engines in the other party's catalog, a variety of new materials, new accessories, new processing technologies, and many important related experiments.

Although the other party did not provide specific process details and experimental data, it can already be seen from these names that the research progress of these aviation engines is nearing the end or most of it has been completed, and there is even a model that can be mass-produced successfully!

Although I don't know which aviation industry developed these medium-thrust engines, their technical strength is definitely much stronger than that of South Africa!

It is estimated. Although these aviation engines are heavier than the Atta 9K-50 turbojet engine of the French Snecma company used in the Cheetah fighter, the maximum afterburner thrust of the engine can reach 138.2 kN, the maximum thrust of 83.3 kN, and the thrust-to-weight ratio has increased to 7.05. The Atta 9K-50 has a thrust of only 49.2 kN and an afterburner thrust of 70.6 kN, making it a light nest jet engine.

The former data is nearly half the thrust of the Atta 9K-50 nest jet that can be manufactured in South Africa, which can significantly improve the performance of the fighter and significantly increase the maneuverability of the new aircraft!

South Africans clearly understand that the Cheetah project is only a transitional project, and no matter how improved the "Mirage III" is, it cannot compete with the real third-generation aircraft, and due to the arms embargo, South Africa cannot directly purchase advanced fighters from abroad, so it can only go to the road of self-research and development. And the lack of an important medium-thrust engine is the biggest obstacle to the development of the South African fighter jet!

The South African Ministry of Defence attached great importance to this information and reported it to President Botha, and they specially sent senior officials from the intelligence department to meet with negotiators from Astra Aircraft Company to contact Lin Johnson.

Mr. Lin soon met with the negotiator of the Astra Company, a shrewd British-descendant, and a stern-looking member of South Africa's Defence Intelligence Department.

Before the two sides met, Lin Qiangsheng had already put on makeup, put on a beard, put on a wig, and even deliberately tanned his face like a person who had lived in a subtropical region.

He could see that the highest-ranking person on the other side was a man named Barbera. Hogan's people, after vaguely identifying themselves, proposed to the other party to buy a variety of Soviet-made weapons such as the Soviet-made SA-8 surface-to-air missile system, the SA-16 "Stingersky" portable surface-to-air missile, and the AGS-17 automatic grenade launcher in South Africa.

At the same time, Lin Qiangsheng also hopes to get South Africa's elephant tanks, Great Lynx wheeled armored vehicles, V3B and V3C air-to-air missiles, and precision-guided air-to-ground weapons.

Lin Qiangsheng agreed to Astra's proposal to obtain all the technical information of the turbofan engine in his hands, but first South Africa needs to meet his conditions and exchange it for the important weapons and technical information in his hands!

Since this deal involves not only Astra Aircraft, but also a number of other military enterprises, the South African Ministry of Defense must be cautious. They also had some doubts about Lin Qiangsheng's identity, but South Africans did not dare to offend him too much in front of the turbofan technical data.

Astra was very eager to get the technical information of these aero engines, but Lin Qiangsheng's conditions were too high, and they were also very tricky.

"Johnson & Johnson, when are we going back home?" Lu Na's incision has completely healed, recovered well, and with the strong emollient and nourishing effect of Ziyun ointment, her beautiful breasts have become white and clean again, and the scar is completely invisible if you don't look carefully.

And Lin Qiangsheng also found one of the benefits of Ziyun ointment, that is, the whitening and moisturizing effect, he simply gave it to her.

After staying here for more than half a month, the girl is also a little tired, these days Lin Johnson accompanied her to visit many famous places in Johannesburg, and also visited the abandoned gold mine that has become an attraction.

Lin Qiangsheng kept writing and drawing on the paper, there were many military magazines in front of him, and he marked out some of South Africa's military weapons for careful study, and he was also guessing and waiting for what cooperation the South Africans could carry out with him.

Hearing Lu Na's question, Lin Qiangsheng raised his head and said to her, "Wait a little longer, I still have some important things to do, and we'll go back when we're done." ”

Lu Na smiled and nodded, she made a glass of milk for Lin Qiangsheng, this time after staying with Lin Qiangsheng for a long time, she found that her boyfriend had a hobby, that is, he loved to drink milk very much, and almost drank it as water.

Lu Na put the cup on the table, and the girl gently leaned next to Lin Qiangsheng to see what he was doing, with a pair of big bright eyes full of curiosity.

"Jingle bell" At this time, the phone rang, Lin Qiangsheng waited for a while, picked up the microphone and said, "Who is it?" ”

"Mr. Lin, we need to confirm the details again!" A deep voice came from the other side of the phone, and a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Lin Qiangsheng's mouth. (To be continued.) )
