Chapter 168: One Opinion After Another

The other party's words made everyone feel that there was no way to continue, and everyone was looking at Tu Lao, after all, Tu Lao was the number one person in charge of technology.

Tu Lao couldn't nod either, he knew that if this point continued, his workload would increase greatly, and once the workload increased, the progress would be delayed, and once the progress was delayed, the project might be yellow.

This has happened many times before, and it can't be allowed to happen again.

Qin Feng was on the side, looking at Tu Lao and didn't know how to answer, and suddenly, he had an idea and said, "Height." ”

Height, yes, it's height!

Hearing Qin Feng's simple word, Tu Lao had an idea of answering in his mind: "General, you know, the MK10 ejection seat, which was developed for the Tornado fighter jet, is used by Western fighters, and Western pilots are generally very high. ”

Comparing the East and the West, you can know that the West is more than 1.8 meters tall, that is simply everywhere, and the cockpit of Western fighter jets cannot be too small, otherwise, their pilots will not be able to get into it.

However, the eastern ones are not.

The MiG-21, although it was developed by the Soviets, they did not take into account the size of the pilots in their own country, they were tall, they drove transport planes, they were short, and they flew fighters again, so it would be fine.

It was in this idea that they designed the MiG-21 to be quite cramped, and in the cockpit, after people sat in it, it was almost full, and it was difficult to move.

"And the two of us are about the same size, so our ejection seats should be more suitable for you, if you insist on choosing Western ejection seats, it will not match the fighter plane and the pilot."

In this way, it is also a compliment to the other party, the average height of domestic citizens is more than 1.65 meters, less than 1.7 meters, and what about Jordan?

The average height of a citizen of the Jordanian country is 1.58 meters, less than 1.6 meters! They are even smaller than the citizens of the country.

In this case, if they choose Western ejection seats, it will be a complete waste.

"And if you don't have the right weight, you can be dangerous if you choose their ejection seat." Tu Lao once again accentuated his tone.

That's right, the ejection seat, that depends on the weight of the pilot, if the pilot's weight is too small, there will be danger when ejecting, because the acceleration is too great.

After Tu Lao said this, a big stone in his heart was put down, and he finally had a good explanation, no matter what, he had to let the other party give up using the Western ejection seats, so that he could not have time to give them support, and now, the matter of avionics with Marconi Company has not been cleared up, and they can't toss their ejection seats.

Hearing Tu Lao's explanation, Lu Sadi temporarily gave up this idea and continued to talk about other topics: "What is its weapon? ”

Machine guns, of course, are machine guns, in the use of the domestic air force, machine guns have always been the most handy, although there are also missiles, but everyone knows that they are unreliable, it is better to use machine guns.

However, for foreign friends, of course, the same cannot be said.

"This aircraft of ours can carry our Thunderbolt-2 air-to-air missiles." Tu Lao said.

Thunderbolt-2, this missile has a long history.

In an air battle, an AIM-9 Sidewinder missile fell to the ground, failed to explode, and was found by the Chinese military and civilians.

When the Soviets found out, they immediately took the Sidewinder missile away, and soon came up with the K-13 missile, which was codenamed AA-2 "Atoll" by NATO.

After that, the country began to introduce all the production technologies of the MiG-21 fighter with the Soviet Union, including the full set of agreements on the introduction of К-13 missiles, and named it "Thunderbolt" 2. In November 1964, the imitation of missiles was in full swing. It took only three years to finalize the test in March 1967, and a total of 19 missiles were launched, and the test was successful. In November 1967, the missile was officially mass-produced.

It can be said that the K-13 is an imitation of the AIM-9B missile, and the Thunderbolt-2 is an imitation of the K-13, but the level of imitation cannot catch up with the original.

"We want to be able to use the French-made Magic R.550 short-range air-to-air missile." Lusadi said.

R.550 "Magic" infrared close-range combat missile is France's main air-to-air missile, designed in 1969, officially equipped with the French army in 1975, France after the completion of research and development, not only for its own use, but also a large number of exports, before and after 18 countries are equipped, the performance is better than the early "Sidewinder" AIM-9B, D in the United States.

Now, France has begun to develop an improved version of the R.550 "Magic" 2, which is slightly better than the American AIM-9L in terms of performance, and can be regarded as a leader in close-range combat missiles.

It's another big project.

To integrate this missile into the weapon system, it takes energy, but fortunately, the technical difficulty of integrating a close-range combat missile in this era is not great, and the J-6 fighter exported to Pakistan in China has been mounted on the Sidewinder missile by the Pakistan Air Force.

The weapon interface of the magic missile is almost exactly the same as that of the Sidewinder, and the launch frame is also the same.

The Jordanian Air Force is armed with French Mirage F1EJ fighters, and they have a large stock of these missiles, so there is a reason why they want to replace them with them.

One buyer, one situation, these improvement opinions have not appeared on Egypt's orders, because Egypt was originally based on Soviet equipment, and the domestic J-7 does not need to be changed, but Jordan, a buyer, is really not good to serve.

Speaking of loading missiles, Lusadi began to bend down again, looking at the wings, looking at the wings being assembled, he could see the structure inside the wings.

"This plane, with only one hardpoint on the wing? It's absolutely not okay, it's too little. Lusadi continued: "It has to be added, at least to ensure that there are five hardpoints in the entire fuselage, so that it is sufficient. ”

Due to the landing gear, the J-7 can only be used on the outer side of the wing, where the bearing capacity is not strong, and it is only a short-range missile, and the hardpoint under the fuselage can be hung with an auxiliary fuel tank.

Anyway, domestic air battles mainly use cannons, and at most one auxiliary fuel tank is hung in peacetime, and the wing hardpoints are useless.

However, it is unacceptable to the Jordanian side, a fighter plane, with only three hardpoints, can it still be called a fighter? No matter how simple a fighter is, there must be five!
