Chapter 820: Don't Let History Repeat Itself

If possible, I really want to buy this fighter directly, but its price is too high, Lao Ba can't afford it, their country's economic capacity is limited, so when purchasing fighters, they must carefully calculate the cost.

They don't need to have a particularly long range, because the land area is not large, the body of the light aircraft is enough, and the missiles on the mount only need two in and two close, similar to the role of the Jian-6, to be able to quickly lift into the air, to be able to undertake the task of air defense interception at any time.

They still have greater expectations for the Sabre 2 project.

Hearing General Mir's words, Qin Feng also kept nodding, when developing fighters in China, the first thing that came to mind was performance, if the performance was improved, it was something that everyone was pursuing, but if you want to export and sell the fighters, then it is not like this, you must pursue a cost-effective one.

Blindly low performance, low price, that's not good, look at the current J-7, J-7 is very cheap, but it is more and more difficult to export, because J-7 does not have over-the-horizon air combat capabilities, and it is more and more inconsistent with the development needs of air combat.

But you can't blindly pursue high performance, the performance is high, the price will go up, many potential weapons users, they can't afford it, Lao Ba is such an example, for them, F-16 will be bought only if they grit their teeth, now, because they can't buy F-16, so they came here to continue to talk with their own side about the situation of the super seven fighter, and now, after a circle, back to the original track of cooperation.

If you still doubted your fighter research and development capabilities before, you have to find a company like Grumman to be the main contractor, but now you don't need it, you have used your own products to prove your strength, we also have this ability, can provide first-class advanced fighters!

General Mill shook his head: "In terms of avionics, your is indeed very advanced, but we want to determine what we need most through bidding. ”

Lao Ba has experienced actual combat testing, if the aircraft is divided into three parts: the fuselage, the engine and avionics, they still value avionics the most!

Modern air warfare relies heavily on avionics, even if advanced radar and electronic equipment have been developed in China, but in the eyes of the other party, it is still unreliable, and they still want to choose the most suitable products for them through comparison.

So, let's use our own advanced nature to win each other's orders!

Because Lao Ba did not plan to buy J-10, so he just took the other party to see the prototype, and did not perform a flight show, just after watching this fighter, Lao Ba was still quite surprised, especially the two pilots who came with him, and couldn't wait to go up to experience it, and after coming down, he was full of praise, looking at that look, it seemed that he was really looking forward to them being equipped with this modern fighter.

"I really hope that we can go forward with the Super Seven project this time, and don't let history repeat itself." Qin Feng said to the old people, and when he said this, the other party's face was ashamed.

This project was originally initiated by the Lao Pakistan side, but later, they unilaterally withdrew, if it is not for the fact that the country has been continuing to engage in it, then, the Lao Pakistan is now in a very embarrassing position, they have no suitable fighters to buy, the West has blockaded them, although Russia has not blockaded, however, they are destined to be impossible to buy the whole machine from Russia.

Because, their opponent India, is the main user of Russian equipment, India even has a MiG-29 production line, they even purchased Su-30 fighters, in the quality and quantity of fighters, they are dominant, and Lao Ba can only rely on meager funds, carefully develop their own equipment.

"We are worried about its engine, and we hope that you can provide reliable support, and preferably you can also equip this fighter." General Mir continued.

It is impossible to equip the country with super seven, when designing, this fighter is used for export, this small body, can not meet the needs of the country, the country must at least be a medium-sized aircraft like J-10, but, in the face of the requirements of the old bus, the country can only promise to do its best.

"When it comes to engines, we've done a good job of coordinating, and if you still have doubts, we can order the first 100 units." Manager Yang of AVIC promised.

Lao Ba is fed up with the suffering of being blocked, which is also a situation that cannot be developed by himself, the engine, avionics, are in the hands of others, once people embargo, it will be difficult for their own women here to cook without rice.

After making various promises, Lao Ba can be regarded as letting go of his psychological baggage, and then, Lao Ba went to the production line again, looking at the J-7E fighter in production.

Although in the process of acquiring advanced fighters, Lao Ba has experienced a lot of setbacks, but in the low-end fighters, it is smooth sailing, since the J-7M of that year, they have been operating a large number of J-7 fighters.

The current J-7E is equipped with double delta wings, which can fight with the F-16 in close air combat, which is an eye-opener for Lao Ba.

"We are now renovating a J-7 MG fighter, which intends to participate in this year's Zhuhai Air Show and sell it to the world at the same time."

J-7 is old, but here in itself, after transformation, it is still rejuvenating, and the improvement of the double delta wing is the most successful place, and now, this J-7 MG is the export model of J-7E, with M, which is also intended to be stained with the light of the previous J-7M.

Although the J-10 can't afford it, but to buy the J-7, the old bus still has enough funds, and the guests who came to stop in front of this J-7 MG again and commented back and forth.

"If we buy it, I hope this fighter can be changed more thoroughly." General Mir carefully examined it, and then expressed his opinion: "For example, its three-piece windshield must be replaced with a monolithic windshield, and we also want to update its fire control system, cram a small radar into the air intake cone, add a helmet sight, add an omnidirectional radar alarm, and have an operating system that does not leave the stick." ”

If it was before, these projects would be very difficult, but after the research and development of the J-10 project, the improvement of these projects is nothing for Chengdu.

"Then we'll start working on it now." Song Lao said: "Moreover, there is also an updated Jian-7 improvement project here, I don't know if you like it." ”
