Chapter 648: You can only rely on yourself
"General Lin, what's going on?" Qin Feng asked General Lin.
The next day, Qin Feng came to the Air Force Headquarters and met General Lin here, after all, Qin Feng came out this time only for tourism, but after receiving this news, Qin Feng could no longer sit still, he could have many channels to inquire, such as going to the Third Aircraft Department, but it was busy now, no one came to take care of Qin Feng, and after staying there for a long time, Qin Feng went straight to the Air Force Headquarters in the afternoon.
Gu Tingting is continuing to play with Xiaohu, but Qin Feng is really in no mood to play now, this is a big earthquake, a big earthquake in the aviation industry.
General Lin and Qin Feng are superiors and subordinates, but also friends, seeing Qin Feng's anxious appearance, the expression on General Lin's face is also very angry.
"Our model of peace project has been completely suspended." General Lin said: "Now, we are negotiating with them in the hope that they will return our plane. ”
"What? The Americans are still going to seize our planes? When Qin Feng heard the news, he couldn't help but be angry.
At that time, Qin Feng felt that something was wrong, and he once gave advice to Mr. Gu, but if he wanted to complete the modification quickly and form combat effectiveness, it must be the fastest to let the Americans refit it, because he didn't understand the technical details at all, and if he modified it himself, he didn't know how many detours he would take.
Back then, it was Qin Feng and a comrade-in-arms who planned to fly the two Jian-8 back directly, but later, the problem of insufficient range could not be solved, and as a result, the Americans directly used a transport plane to remove the wings of their own plane and transport it over.
The scenes at that time were still vivid, but who would have thought that it was like a dream, and I woke up so soon.
"Yes, they refused to give us the plane, saying that it had their secrets, and that we had paid a lot of money for this project, and now they are not going to return the funds to us." General Lin said: "Now, they plan to play this scoundrel to the end." ”
Everyone can see that the other party is playing a scoundrel, the other party unilaterally terminates the contract, and then, the fighter planes and funds will not be returned to their side.
Shenyang is annoyed by this, and the most annoyed is the Air Force.
You must know that the Peace Model Project, costing $550 million, is the largest project of the domestic Air Force at present, and through this project, the Air Force will get a modern interception system and advanced pulse Doppler radar, so that the Air Force will have the ability to intercept at a medium range for the first time, and then cooperate with the A-bomb project introduced by the side to achieve the most needed requirements for intercepting Soviet bombers.
And now, with the unilateral suspension of the Americans, everything is in vain, huge sums of money have been paid, so much effort and waiting has been made, and in the end, it has been in vain!
If it is put in the future generations, 550 million US dollars is not much, but now, it is raised by the state through gritted teeth, and in the future generations, the country's foreign exchange reserves are often trillions of US dollars, and now?
When the project was launched, the country's total foreign exchange reserves were only more than $2 billion! It took a lot of determination to take out a quarter of the country's foreign exchange reserves to buy equipment for the Air Force, and as a result, this long-awaited project ended in this way.
I am unwilling!
"Relying on the Americans will never be reliable, and facts have proved that we can only rely on ourselves, and only when our own national defense industry is strong can we be truly strong, and we cannot buy modern national defense by purchasing." General Lin said again.
This sentence made Qin Feng's heart also deeply shaken, yes, you can't buy modern national defense by buying, and now the end of the peace model project is a living example.
Throughout the eighties, there was an air of blind optimism in the country, wanting to keep up with the West, and now, it has been shattered by the ruthless reality.
"General Lin, although the project we purchased failed, but we are also developing our own domestic research, I believe that our 14 domestic institutes will not let us down, they will be able to develop our own airborne radar equipment, not only for the J-8, but also for the J-10, but also for more aircraft."
The 141 radar of the 14 institutes has been developed and basically met the design requirements of the project, and now, they are making persistent efforts to develop a more advanced 1473 radar!
There are already technical reserves in China, and China will not be passive.
Qin Feng is also very clear about this matter, after all, his sister Xiaoxue is in the 14th institute.
In the case of a complete blank, it is not easy to develop the world's advanced level of airborne pulse Doppler radar, responsible for the project of Ben Lao, has been engaged in radar research all his life, he has been in the airborne PD fire control radar system prototype since 1980, after the chief designer of the 1471 radar, he proposed and determined the PD fire control radar development path suitable for the national conditions, first developed medium and low repetition frequency, and then developed the development direction of high, medium and low full waveform, and now the test of 1471 radar is successful, After breaking through the PD system, breaking the foreign blockade, and filling the domestic gap, after this radar came out, the 14 institutes made persistent efforts and began to develop the 1473 radar that can really be installed and practical.
The Peace Model Project failed, from this project, the country still got a lot of lessons, they learned some advanced technology and concepts from the West, the most important thing is that this incident let everyone know that no matter how good foreign things are, they are also foreign, there will be changes at any time, and they will be stuck at any time.
"What about the Super Seven project, is this project also suspended at present?" Qin Feng continued to ask, these two projects are both projects that Qin Feng has participated in, and they are also key projects.
The super seven project is even more difficult, and now Pakistan has withdrawn its investment, completely relying on Tu Lao's unilateral insistence, if the cooperation breaks down, the consequences will be very serious.
"This project is still being fought for, after all, this project is private." General Lin knows very well about the Peace Model Project, but he only knows a little about the Super Seven Project, and now, there is still room for this project to turn around.
"In the last day or two, Lao Tu is going to come to the capital to report, if you want to know, you can stay a few more days and ask Tu Lao in person." General Lin said again.
