Domestic fighters, almost all imported from the Soviet Union, due to China's vast territory, the number of fighters needed is very large, so, the introduction of fighters must not meet the needs, must be able to introduce technology, independent production can, under this guiding ideology, the country has introduced a variety of fighters, MiG-17, MiG-19, MiG-21, China and Mikoyan Design Bureau have formed an indissoluble bond, but now, everyone has taken a fancy to the Su-27.

In the introduction of the Su-27, there has been the idea of introducing a production line and producing independently, but it is completely different from the introduction of fighters in the past.

There are many reasons for this, as the laurel of industry, engine technology is related to the industrial base of the whole country, if there is not enough industrial base, it is impossible to manufacture advanced aero engines, and the third generation engine needs higher technology, and it is also the technology that many countries will not leak, even if you want to buy, the Soviet Union or Russia, you may not be willing to sell.

As for the second point, that is, the country still has hope for the turbofan ten, and even the J-10 is looking forward to the turbofan ten, since there is already this expectation, why buy an engine? The two engines are very similar in terms of performance, and when the time comes, they can be used interchangeably.

Now, even if everyone realizes how much effort it takes to research an advanced engine, they still don't have enough understanding of the risks, let alone know that it took nearly 30 years for the turbofan 10 to really mature!

However, with the down-to-earth turbofan ten, there is the success of the turbofan fifteen, if there is no turbofan ten research and development, then the door of domestic aero engine research and development has been completely closed, no technology accumulation, there will be no breakthrough, this road, is must go.

Maybe it's worried that the introduction will affect independent research and development, so in terms of engines, there is no introduction, and now everyone didn't expect that the J-10 just wanted to rely on the transition of the third uncle's engine, who knows, but the third aunt supported most of the life cycle of the J-10 fighter.

The performance of the turbofan ten is almost, it is okay to install it on the J-11, after all, the J-11 is a twin-engine, one engine fails, and you can rely on the other to fly, but the J-10 is not good, it is a single engine, once the engine fails, the consequences are very serious, which is also the advantage of the double engine over the single engine, the navy's fighters need double engines, that is, to ensure safety, and Russia in the weakening of the national strength, all the single-engine aircraft are retired, this is also the reason.

Now, the investigation of the Su-27 fighter is very detailed, through this investigation, to understand the main performance and combat mode of the Su-27, of course, to use this investigation, the Su-27 will be thoroughly eaten, that is impossible, only in the domestic equipment, continuous flight, will find its many shortcomings, for example, even reliable engines, there is a problem of insufficient lubrication, as for the radar and fire control system, the anti-jamming ability is not as good as the J-8, all of which were discovered later.

As for now, everyone is relatively satisfied with this aircraft, and the performance has been thoroughly figured.

"Can we use this engine in our self-developed fighter?" General Lin asked.

The introduction of the Su-27 this time has another intention, that is, its engine.

Although the comrades of the Ministry of Aviation Industry are full of confidence in the turbofan 10, the Air Force has no confidence, after all, the Air Force is the user, if an unqualified engine is equipped with troops, then the Air Force will face a lot of dangers, they prefer to use mature and reliable.

The domestic J-10 is a confidential project, but the negotiations on the introduction of engines from China and the Soviet Union have already begun, such as Tu Lao, who often runs to the Mikoyan Design Bureau.

Now, hearing General Lin's words, Simonov immediately patted his chest: "Of course there is no problem, if you purchase our fighters, then it is completely fine to buy more engines for spare parts, and we are happy to see this happen." ”

It's all about making money.

"However, we need to modify this engine a little bit, for example, its receiver, to be placed underneath."

Like the MiG-29, this kind of double-engine casing is placed on it, for their design method, standing on it to maintain it, anyway, there is space on the back of the aircraft, but it is different for single-engine aircraft, in order to facilitate maintenance, it is better to design the casing to the bottom, which is more convenient.

Do you want to change the cassette?

Simonov continued to pat his chest: "This is no problem, our Rurika Design Bureau is quite experienced in terms of engines, and we will change it as you need it." ”

"Then this time, we want to get all the information about your engine." General Lin continued to make inches, and Simonov did not refuse, unlike the Western world, where it takes a lot of effort to find information, and the Soviet side is still very generous.

With this information, it will be easier to match your own fighters, Qin Feng looked at these progresses, and he was also quite satisfied, Jian-10, if this kind of engine is used, then the power system of the domestic third-generation aircraft will be unified, which is quite beneficial to logistics.

At the same time, this also means that it is impossible for the Air Force to purchase the Super Seven fighter, the engine used for this fighter, there is no domestic one, the Air Force will not be equipped with a different model to complicate its logistics, the Super Seven is destined to become a purely export fighter, now, after Lao Ba has given up this project, how big is the prospect of the project?

One thing is for sure, that is, Tu Lao will never give up!

In Komsomolsk, the Air Force's inspection lasted for a week, except for not being able to get on the plane to feel the flight, everything else was done, and Simonov also promised that after the formal signing of the agreement, their Su-27 would fly to China for a flight show, and at that time, there would be a two-seater fighter!

Now that the inspection has been successfully concluded, the remaining task is the last one, to negotiate the price, and after the price is negotiated, you can pay the money to receive the goods and complete the entire arms sales project.

The last task will take a few more months, and after the delegation returns, it will be reported and the top level of the government will have to consult with each other.
