Hearing Fang Lang's affirmative reply, Major General Nairo Mora was so excited that he couldn't extricate himself, pacing back and forth in the tea room, and he couldn't sit on the stool and drink tea with peace of mind.

"General Fang, this news is really amazing, how did you do it.

That's amazing, doesn't that mean your factory already has the ability to design your own aircraft?"

Seeing Major General Neiro Mora's excited appearance, Fang Lang smiled, poured a cup of tea again and put it in front of the other party's stool, and raised his hand to signal the other party to drink tea.

"Your Excellency, don't get too excited, let's sit down and talk while drinking.

Although, my factory has the ability to design aircraft independently.

However, it has not yet formed its own aircraft manufacturing capacity, and the related supporting parts manufacturing plant is still under construction.

Therefore, please don't get too excited, Your Excellency."

Major General Nairo Mora finally calmed down his excitement, returned to his place, picked up the tea on the table, and drank it in one gulp.

The unfinished path of talent:

"Fang, I think we should celebrate with a drink at this time.

That's really exciting news."

Fang Lang, who had just drunk wine when he was eating, didn't want to continue to drink with the other party, he was a person who wanted to maintain his health.

Smiled and said:

"Now is not the time to celebrate, if our aircraft factory succeeds in building the first aircraft, I will definitely invite His Excellency the General to accompany me to get drunk."

"Haha...... I don't need you to invite me then, I'll take our brothers in the Air Force to get you drunk."

"No problem, if you don't get drunk when the time comes, you won't return."

Fang Lang saw the happy appearance of Major General Nairo Mora, and he was also relieved, after all, the independent development of an aircraft is not a small project, if the developed aircraft is not wanted, then it will really be a large amount of research funds wasted.

Looking at the other party's appearance, they must hope that Brazil can use self-developed aircraft, rather than purchased aircraft, which is the same as Fang Lang's concept.

This made Fang Lang attach more importance to his friendship with Major General Nairo Mora.

Major General Nairo Mora's thoughts are obviously the same as Fang Lang's, and Fang Lang can invest heavily in preparing for a rainy day to set up an aircraft factory in Brazil.

He expressed his admiration from the bottom of his heart, and also wanted to further stabilize the relationship between the two.

is also puzzled by Fang Lang's ability to design aircraft, but he started from the modification business.

"Fang, since you have such a good designer, why don't you just start designing and building aircraft.

Instead, it undertakes the modification of some transport aircraft!

If you need help, please talk to me directly, as long as I can do it, I will spare no effort to help you complete it."

Fang Lang could feel the sincerity of the other party from the other party's words.

opened a box of cigars by the tea table, took out one and handed it to the other party, and then took out another one for himself, and then said unhurriedly:

"Your Excellency, you must understand that aircraft manufacturing is a systems project.

It's not that if we can design a good fighter, we will be able to build it.

This requires us to have a strong basic industry as a support.

I dare to introduce aircraft factories because of the introduction of the previous automobile industry system, which allows us to have some basic manufacturing capabilities.

But that's not enough, airplanes are not cars, and being able to make cars doesn't mean that we can make airplanes.

As an Air Force, you should also know that the planes that we in Brazil now have, in fact, are lagging behind.

The future of the Air Force is jets.

If we are going to build airplanes, we must have the ability to manufacture jets in the future.

Jet planes are much more difficult to build than propeller planes are today."

Major General Neiro Mora looked at Fang Lang dumbfounded, a little dumbfounded

The stammering word:

"What? Fang, you want to build jets?"

While trimming this cigar, Fang Lang looked at Major General Nairo Mora with strange eyes and said:

"Why, Your Excellency General doesn't agree that jet fighters are the future?"

Major General Nairo Mora shook his head repeatedly.

"Of course not, we've encountered jets in Europe, and their high-altitude and high-speed capabilities are not comparable to propeller planes.

The propeller will have to choose to flee for its life when it hits the jet, and whether it can escape depends on luck.

But can we afford to build jets?"

Fang Lang smiled, put down the cigar cutter in his hand, picked up a match and lit the cigar in his hand, and after taking a puff, he said slowly:

"Of course, there is no ability to build jets now, and Rome was not built in a day.

Let's take our time!

Now, our first step is to train a group of qualified skilled workers through the modification of aircraft.

Once we have qualified skilled workers, we can start experimenting with the manufacture of small aircraft.

If it succeeds, we will need some orders from the military.

For example, a primary trainer, then a propeller fighter, a propeller transport aircraft.

Finally, start challenging jet fighters, jet transport planes.

Step by step, ride slowly.

Finally, we will achieve our goal of owning a fighter jet with full intellectual property rights."

After Major General Nairo Mora listened to Fang Lang's words, his excitement began to slowly calm down.

looked at Fang Lang seriously:

"Does General Fang mean that after the successful aircraft manufacturing experience in the aircraft factory inside, do you need the support of our military?"

Fang Lang spit out a large mouthful of smoke before he nodded and said:

"My development plan for the factory is like this, if Your Excellency General has a better idea, of course, you can also put it forward for our reference."

Major General Nairo Mora lowered his head and thought for a moment before raising his head again and said:

"I think the first batch of trainer aircraft of our Aviation Academy can be designed and manufactured by an aircraft factory.

Your aircraft factory is not just your family's business, it's the hope of our Embraer.

How can you grow up completely on your own?

I understand what you mean, aircraft building is a systematic project, and it cannot be accomplished overnight.

However, we also have shortcuts!

As long as you can design qualified products, we can purchase parts from abroad.

As long as the assembled aircraft can meet our own design requirements, it is the product of our own aviation industry in Brazil.

As for the localization rate of parts, we can gradually increase it later!"

Fang Lang was stunned by Major General Neiro Mora's words, yes!

I am not in my hometown, I don't have to pursue the Soviet-style big and complete at all, Brazil has never been blocked and sanctioned by Europe and the United States, and I don't have to worry about someone getting stuck in the neck of the parts.

Of course, the means of competitors are inevitable, but as long as you have the core technology in your hands, you can be more radical!

At this time, the development of a training aircraft should not be difficult for the researchers of their own company.

According to the idea of Major General Neiro Mora, if an order is placed for an aircraft factory by the Aviation Academy, wouldn't it be possible to start manufacturing directly?

My influence in the army is not small now, and with the support of the Minister of the Air Force, everything seems to be logical!

The other officials in Brazil are ***, taking bribes, are they worried that someone will attack them from this aspect?

But I don't go into politics, so there's nothing to worry about.

As for the *** in the army, his fleet can be said to be the cleanest in all of Brazil

Is it okay to troops?

After thinking about these things clearly, Fang Lang looked at Major General Nairo Mora seriously and said:

"Is Your Excellency the General sure to convince the Ministry of Defense?

It's not a small matter."

Seeing Fang Lang's expression, Major General Nairo Mora understood that Fang Lang had been moved by what he said, and said to Fang Lang with a smile:

"Haha.... Fang, are you thinking about this matter too complicated?

Since we are going to apply for the establishment of an aviation academy, we will simply report the purchase cost of this aircraft as the procurement cost of the training aircraft.

As long as the Ministry of Defense approves our plan to build the school and gives us an allocation,

In the name of the school, we can place an order directly with your aircraft factory for the manufacture of training aircraft.

You don't need to report to the Ministry of Defense for approval again!"

Fang Lang looked at Major General Nairo Mora dumbfounded, this guy is a genius!

No wonder you can directly become the Minister of the Air Force, this idea is really clear, and the feasibility is very high!

"That..... Let's just try it?"

Fang Lang was a little uncertain.

Major General Nairo Mora made the final decision, slapped the table directly and said:

"What to try, that's it.

When I returned to Rio de Janeiro, I went to General Crook to discuss the establishment of an aviation academy.

But before that, I really wanted to visit your aircraft factory.

When are you free, how about being my guide?"

It seems that the Major General Nairo Mora in front of him is also a person who can do practical things!

Speak and do things well, not dragging mud and water, full of courage.

Fang Lang didn't have anything to say, and said directly:

"If it is convenient for Your Excellency General, tomorrow morning, I will arrange a plane, and how about we fly directly to São Paulo?"

"I'm fine, then it's decided, I'll rest at your house tonight."

Major General Nairo Mora said very dryly.

Originally, Fang Lang's plan was to go to São Paulo later, after all, the Ministry of Justice only called today and invited him to see Sebastio Hodges.

If you go directly tomorrow, you are likely to be predicted in advance, which will have an impact on travel safety.

However, it is impossible for you to give up your food because of choking, do you have to be afraid of going wherever you go if someone attacks you?

Then what kind of soldier is it, just be a turtle with a shrunken head.

"Okay, then I'll have someone arrange a plane now, and I'll leave early tomorrow morning."

Then Fang Lang informed his adjutant that Qi Qingshan had arranged his itinerary and guards.

This night, Fang Lang and Major General Nairo Mora didn't know if they drank too much tea and couldn't sleep, but they still found a common topic, and chatted until midnight before they went back to their rooms to sleep.

The only two military commanders in Brazil who have aviation power in their hands have become very good friends during the night of conversation, feeling that they have a thousand glasses of wine and a thousand glasses of confidants.

In addition, a series of discussions and plans were carried out on the future of the Embraer Aerospace Forces, and a consensus was initially reached to fully support the aircraft manufacturing plant of Fangyuan Group.

Major General Nairo Mora even asked Fang Lang to urge the aircraft factory to start the development of a helicopter.

The two sides also had to admit that Major General Nairo Mora was definitely a qualified Air Force minister, better than his own traverser.

After all, I can only know some things when I stand in the direction of the historical development of later generations.

And the other party really relies entirely on his own personal vision.
