The requirements of the Pakistani side are very high, and when they saw the J-8, they were undeniable, and now, when they saw the J-7, General Jamal was still satisfied with this aircraft as a whole, and he showed great interest.

At the same time, the other side is also pragmatic.

In the base, everyone repeatedly studied this aircraft for a long time, and that night, they came to the Bangchuidao Hotel again, and General Liu invited General Jamal, Tu Lao and others to accompany them.

As the main introducer, Qin Feng was also fortunate to participate.

Although the country is still very poor, the food standard of the pilots is still very high, Qin Feng's three meals a day are quite a reasonable combination, to ensure high-quality diet, in order to meet the needs of the flight, so, the dinner here Qin Feng is not interested, he is still interested in the Pakistani plane.

"General Jamal, how do you feel about the F-16 fighter?" Qin Feng couldn't help but ask.

Now, Qin Feng has flown the first third-generation aircraft Mirage 2000, this F-16, passing by the Air Force, makes Qin Feng very interested, if there is a chance, it would be good to fly once!

General Jamal's eyes glanced at Qin Feng, as if he knew what Qin Feng was thinking, and said: "This plane is great, you will know if you fly it, and wait until the next time, when you go to us, you can ask you to fly once." It is said that you have flown the Mirage 2000, and when the time comes, you can compare the two aircraft. ”

Qin Feng was overjoyed, this is the friendship of steel, whatever weapons you have, you can provide them to Pakistan, and at the same time, whatever weapons Pakistan has, you will also let your own side feel it, and the relationship between the two sides is quite good.

(There is even news in later generations, saying that Pakistan crashed an F-16, and then carefully searched, but did not find the wreckage, and later said that the plane flew to Shenyang, of course, this is definitely a false rumor, F-16 for Pakistan, is also a very valuable fighter, let the country fly OK, to say that to send an F-16 over, there is not that level of generosity.) ）

Now, when Qin Feng heard that he was going to fly, he couldn't help it, and immediately started talking endlessly: "Judging from the data, it is full of power, and its maneuverability must be great, but its air intake limits its high-speed ability." ”

When the F-16 was designed, it pursued transonic maneuverability, in this range, that is the king, and at the same time, this range is also the most common space for fighter combat, but if it is not good compared to others, for example, the ability to fly at high speed, it is not even comparable to the MiG-21.

Because of its air intake.

Different speeds, altitudes, and different demand for air intake, therefore, the pursuit of performance in different situations of fighters, all need to have an air intake adjustment mechanism, the common domestic is the nose of the air intake cone, and abroad, the French are still using the adjustment cone, and the United States has begun to use a new baffle on the F-15.

This adjustment mechanism will make the fighter have quite good performance, but at the same time, it will also bring the problem of structural weight increase, so, in some fighters, it will also be simplified, such as F-16, its belly air intake, to the large angle of attack maneuver brings great benefits, however, the air intake is a fixed form, in this form, the high-speed air intake efficiency will be greatly reduced, and at the same time bring greater resistance.

Now, as soon as Qin Feng said this, General Jamal nodded again and again: "That's right, you are right, the maximum speed of the F-16 is Mach 2, but in actual flight, it exceeds Mach 1.5, and it is difficult to continue accelerating." ”

The maximum speed is to fly out under ideal conditions, in the actual flight, to mount the missile, the auxiliary fuel tank, the drag is very large, when more than Mach 1.5, continue to accelerate, you can only slowly swing, it is difficult to increase the speed.

Qin Feng has never flown before, just by relying on some information, he knows the performance of this aircraft, which shows that he is quite good at using his brain.

"In our summary of air combat, we can also find that maximum speed is not very useful, on the contrary, the ability to maneuver in the transonic range is the most useful." General Jamal continued: "When you are developing a fighter, you should also think more about this, to be honest, that Shenyang fighter is useless to us. ”

Shenyang's fighter went to an extreme, only pursuing maximum speed, its maneuverability was not good, and it could even be said that it was quite poor, and he could not understand the design concept of this kind of aircraft.

Tu Lao nodded, yes, they also noticed this, the maximum speed of the MiG-21 has reached Mach 2, however, its maneuverability is not high.

The next improvement is how to improve its maneuverability, in the case of the overall unchanged, the replacement of the wing, should be the best way, even if it is on the leading edge of the wing, the addition of automatic flaps, will also make the aerodynamic performance to a higher level.

This technology, which was used on the F-86F, has not been mastered by the F-86F until now, and the processing accuracy is not enough, which will lead to frequent failures.

"By the way, what about its radar?" Qin Feng continued to ask, although it lacks a continuous wave irradiator and cannot guide medium-range air-to-air missiles, its radar uses a flat slit antenna after all, and it is a real pulse Doppler radar! Remembering that when testing the radar of the Mirage 2000, it was found that its ability to filter ground clutter was not ordinarily poor, Qin Feng added: "For example, under ground clutter, can it work effectively?" ”

Pakistan is mountainous and borders India, so there is an urgent need for radar that can find ultra-low-altitude penetration targets on the ground.

Speaking of radar, General Jamal was full of praise: "Its radar is quite good, it uses the latest processor, and in the mode of pulse Doppler, the target in the ground clutter is quite clear." ”

In fact, looking at the battlefield in the Bekaa Valley last year, the Israeli Air Force was able to clearly find the target from the complex echoes on the ground, and they even saw the precedent of Israeli fighters firing missiles downward and hitting the target.

"Our fighter is nimble, reliable, and it's just a little F-16." Seeing Qin Feng chattering, finally, Manager Liu shifted the topic back to Jianqishang: "General, we are looking forward to your official reply." ”

"This is easy, after I go back, I will report to the commander of the Air Force and strive to send pilots over for a test flight as soon as possible." General Jamal said that he is also looking forward to the aircraft, and at the same time, he is very realistic: "Now, I have two more requirements. ”
