Chapter 436: There must be an inside story

"It seems that there are more insiders here." Qin Feng sighed and said to Tu Lao: "We are here, we can't fully understand what they think at all, it would be better if we could go to them for a field trip." ”

The whole project can be said to have been put forward by the Pakistani side, and what they really think, the side still has not figured it out, and the improvement goals that were said before are acceptable to the side, but now, when they say that they want to cooperate with the Americans, and they regard them as the main contractor, they are completely incomprehensible.

Originally, the F404 engine was said to be good, but it turned out that there was a PW1120 engine, and the two had to work together, which needed to be coordinated repeatedly before it could be finalized.

They said that they should make their own aviation complex responsible, which is understandable, they want to use this project to achieve a leapfrog development of their own aviation industry, and there is still a lot of communication and mutual discussion.

"In short, this plan must be for us to take the lion's share." Qin Feng said: "Otherwise, we might as well do it ourselves, anyway, our plan is being implemented step by step, and there is no need to let American companies make all the money." ”

Tu Lao nodded vigorously: "Yes, this is also what we are considering, the J-7M was originally ours, and now we want to improve the J-7M, it is also ours, we must not find them as the main contractor." However, the superiors are now very serious about this matter. ”

This is an opportunity, now, the country is reforming, a large number of military enterprises, are carrying out military to civilian, only to the civilian field, can be developed, and 132 factory, hard in the export of military equipment, has made a breakthrough, this is definitely a great achievement, and now, and began to jointly improve with foreign countries, this is a new opportunity, the superior is quite important, now we have contradictions, you can sit down and talk, but still try to talk in a good direction, Try to talk about it.

Now, we need to work out countermeasures, and at the same time, we need to wait for further contacts with the Pakistani side.

"I'm weird." Qin Feng said: "According to their bidding documents, they have found a lot of companies, but so far, only Grumman and Walter have contacted us, what about other companies, what's going on?" ”

At this time, Qin Feng had already read the tender in Tu Lao's hand, as an excellent test pilot, he could come into contact with a lot of things, besides, Qin Feng had long been associated with this project, the last time he went to Pakistan and tested the J-7M, he had a more in-depth relationship with the other party.

"We don't know about this yet, but we can guess a little." Tu Lao said: "For example, Northrop Company, they are developing a modification of the F-5 fighter, which is also a light aircraft with F404 engine, so that it is afraid that it is in competition with our aircraft, how can they be attentive to our aircraft." ”

The various aircraft companies in the United States are intrigued with each other, even if it is Tu Lao, he can only come up with this, as for the rest, I don't know.

Northrop is unwilling, what about Boeing? They are not interested in the domestic military aircraft market at all, it is enough for them to have passenger planes, and they have specialized in the art industry.

"It seems that it is really difficult for us to engage in this foreign trade project, we have only 132 factories nationwide, and we are the only ones going out, right?" Qin Feng asked.

Tu Lao shook his head: "This is not, you have to look forward, our other comrades are also quite hardworking." If you go to fly the Jianjiao Seven, don't you also want to sell it? Moreover, the strong five, now the plan is also improving. ”

When he was in Pakistan, Qin Feng had a confrontation with Qiang Wu, don't look at this kind of plane as a strong attack aircraft, and its flying performance is not weak at all, now, as soon as Tu Lao said this, Qin Feng became energetic: "Qiang Wu also has to be changed, how to change it?" ”

"I don't know about this, it is said that we are in contact with the Italian side, and we plan to use the advanced avionics equipment provided by Italy to improve our strong five and have more advanced combat capabilities." Tu Lao said.

Strong five, is the main domestic attack aircraft, beautiful appearance, strong attack power, but the fire control system has always been a weakness, after all, in this regard, the domestic and foreign disconnect is serious, however, the strong five is another main product of foreign exports, just look at Pakistan's strong five fleet.

Therefore, the use of advanced avionics systems for Qiangwu to make it have more powerful attack capabilities is a goal, and other brother factories in China are also engaged in reform, and they are making great strides forward together!

"The technology in Italy is very good." Qin Feng said: "They are not only avionics, they are also very good in air-to-air missiles. It's almost the sparrow's brother, and it would be nice if we could bring it in. ”

Qin Feng also felt that now, the domestic aviation industry is backward, especially the weapon system, today I see the development of airborne radar, I am very happy, but only with radar, what is the use, there are no missiles!

In order to develop the J-8, the country has developed radar and Thunderbolt-4 missiles, which are the first medium-range air-to-air missiles in China.

So far, the only modern one in China is probably the introduction of the Monster Snake-3 missile, and there is still a blank in terms of medium-range missiles.

If it is imported from the United States, people will definitely refuse, and Italy is a good choice.

They have an air-to-air missile that is even more reliable than the Sparrow missile, this is Aspide, also translated as the pit viper, which is a medium-range semi-active radar-guided air-to-air missile developed by the Italian company Selenia, in order to save costs, it directly uses the AIM-7 missile body. However, it improved the seeker and replaced the original cone scanning with single-pulse guidance.

This puts their missiles at the world's advanced level.

Now, there is an urgent need for a reliable medium-range missile in China.

"Well, I heard that we are also in contact, but it is relatively confidential, if you have a chance, ask General Lin." Tu Lao said.

Tu Lao knows some, but he doesn't know much, it is said that he has just started to make contact, but this year, Italy has provided good things, that is, the B.515S three-barreled 324mm torpedo launcher and 40 A.244S light anti-submarine torpedoes of the Italian company Alenia.

The Navy has never had a reliable torpedo, and now it has finally filled the gap, in fact, among the European countries, Italy is the most sincere.
