"This is your latest workhorse fighter, right? Mr. Instructor, it's not good to have good things and not share them with old friends! "Prince Sultan stood next to a freshly assembled fighter jet, his eyes shining a little. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This aircraft he had never seen before, it was definitely a new model, with a height of about five or six meters, a length of about twenty meters, a wingspan of about fourteen or fifteen meters, and an air intake of a diamond-shaped section, much like an American Raptor fighter.

He took the senior generals with great interest to first go to the Black Sea Shipyard to watch the actual progress of aircraft carrier manufacturing, and then visited the research and development base of the aerospace manufacturing company, but accidentally discovered the test aircraft of the Haidongqing-1 all-weather heavy fighter.

For this kind of fighter jet that has never been seen before, Saudi Arabia's senior generals suddenly came to the spirit, they are the theory of equipment first, so they have relied on crude oil revenues in recent years, and greatly increased military spending to purchase new weapons, but to talk about the scientific and technological content, it is naturally headed by Haidongqing Aerospace Manufacturing Company.

Other countries, such as the United States, sell high-end weapons and equipment to Saudi Arabia, but it is always customary to keep one hand and reduce so many high-tech equipment, which has aroused strong dissatisfaction among the top echelons of the Saudi military. Paralyzed, not to mention the expensive things you sell, you still engage in such small actions to reduce those avionics equipment, and the combat effectiveness will be discounted!

The Shield Defender 1 carrier-based aircraft defeated the Super Hornet carrier-based aircraft in public, and everyone's trust in Haidongqing Aerospace Manufacturing Company is close to blindness! What people give themselves is absolutely the real thing, not as despicable and shameless as the Americans, what will be the quality of this new aircraft?

"Your Royal Highness, this aircraft is a test aircraft of the Haidongqing 1 twin-engine all-weather heavy fighter, equipped with a twin-rotor afterburner turbofan engine, the world's most advanced active phased array radar system, 80% of the fuselage is made of titanium alloy, adopts a stealth design, and the outside of the fuselage is coated with a layer of stealth material, with a certain degree of stealth ability."

"According to the current standards of the air forces of various countries, the Haidongqing 1 belongs to the fifth-generation fighter, and the main type of competition is the American F-22 Raptor fighter. The chief engineer said proudly.

The Saudi military leaders present were shocked, the American Raptor fighter has just been released, claiming to be the first fifth-generation aircraft, with strong stealth capabilities and attack capabilities, but I didn't expect Haidongqing Aerospace Manufacturing Company to do such research, almost at the same time launched the fifth-generation aircraft, what a strong scientific research force!

"Then this plane must have cost a lot of money, right?" The commander of the Saudi Air Force asked.

"Not to mention how terrifying the R&D expenses in the early three years are, the cost of manufacturing this test plane alone has exceeded 150 million US dollars, and plus the sharing of R&D expenses, it will cost more than 240 million US dollars, which is the main fighter of our Golden Triangle Air Force." The chief engineer said with a smile.

"Mr. Instructor, when will this fifth-generation fighter be officially produced, and can you sell it to us Saudi Arabia in a batch? You can rest assured, the price is negotiable! "The prince was tempted.

Since the chief engineer said that the Haidongqing-1 all-weather heavy fighter belongs to the fifth-generation fighter, it must be a fifth-generation fighter, there is no doubt about it, and His Royal Highness's confidence in this company is not weaker than that of senior generals.

Listen, with an almost all-titanium fuselage, a twin-rotor afterburner turbofan engine, an active phased array radar, and a stealth effect, such an aircraft does not seem to be much different from the Raptor fighter.

"Your Royal Highness, this kind of aircraft has only been built one test machine at present, and at least five to six test machines are needed, and it will take a year of testing and inspection before it can officially enter the production line, and the problem of sales is too early to say. Rest assured, we have a very good cooperation and I will definitely take care of my old friends first. Wu Chen said with a smile.

"No, dear Mr. instructor, some things are better to start early, Saudi Arabia needs such cutting-edge equipment, you can just say it, how much does a Haidongqing 1 fighter need us to pay!" His Royal Highness said.

He trusts the strength and credibility of this company, so he wants to take money to smash Wu Chen unconscious, even if the American Raptor fighter is better than this aircraft, but it is paralyzed, you give money and people will not sell it to you!

The cost of manufacturing materials for each Haidongqing-1 all-weather heavy fighter has not exceeded 70 million US dollars so far, plus labor costs, including research and development costs, should be 120 million US dollars.

Why is it so low, the manufacturing cost of the Raptor fighter is 120 million US dollars, plus the research and development expenses, each of them has reached 330 million US dollars, which is why the Americans do not sell out, and the cutting-edge technology cannot be passed on.

If it is to be sold, it will not be less than $300 million each, and Japan wants to spend $30 billion to buy 100 Raptors, but the United States still refuses to sell them.

"In this way, we order 100 Haidongqing-1 all-weather heavy fighters, each of which will give you 360 million US dollars, which can be paid in a lump sum, which can be regarded as sponsoring your research and development, and the later training and technical support are calculated separately, what do you think of this price?" His Royal Highness the Prince thinks that this figure is not a loss, and he is worried that the other party will not sell it, and anyone will regard this kind of cutting-edge fighter as a treasure of the town.

A group of executives of aerospace manufacturing companies were suddenly stunned by this number, 100 aircraft is 36 billion US dollars! But Wu Chen is not surprised at all, Saudi Arabia's military spending of more than 80 billion US dollars a year is less than half!

"Well, according to our production capacity, this kind of aircraft is at most sixty-eight per year, it is impossible to have more, this is still because of some parts to partners, I plan to meet your orders in three years, the first two years to deliver thirty-three per year, the third year to deliver thirty-four, after all, we ourselves need this kind of fighter every year."

"The problem of the Golden Triangle is no longer a secret to all countries in the world, and His Royal Highness must know it very well in his heart, and when the time comes, please ask Saudi Arabia to provide us with some help within its capacity, which is why I promise you." Wu Chen said.

The Golden Triangle will inevitably be upgraded, this is really not a secret, everything that should be known is already known, Wu Chen's meaning is very thorough, if it weren't for the fact that the Golden Triangle needs the support of Saudi Arabia to be upgraded, this business still can't be negotiated, it's so domineering!
