Of course, Lieutenant Colonel Banya, who was already returning home at this time, did not know that his landline had been defined as a "mysterious stealth plane" by two pilots who did not want to take responsibility, and he just excitedly recalled the entire mission process just now.

There wasn't a chance to make visual contact, but it was a big win anyway.

Since 1988, Barnia has not carried out any serious combat missions for nearly a decade.

Especially after entering the 90s, as the condition of the two main types of fighters deteriorated year by year, they even began to reduce the time for lift-off training.

Otherwise, I would not have gone to Huaxia to upgrade the life of the aircraft.

You must know that Bania is not the only one who is prejudiced against Chinese equipment because of the Iran-Iraq war.

Both the regular army and the Revolutionary Guards were initially more inclined to cooperate with the Russians.

As for why I went to Huaxia in the end......

Because Persia itself does not have much hard currency such as gold and the dollar, it is clearly impossible for Moscow to accept such an outrageous demand to pay for it with oil.

Fortunately, judging from the results, the upgrade plan provided by Huaxia people is not bad.

Although this time it can't be said to be a real "battle", at least it can be regarded as a meal replacement.

Naturally, there was no need to continue to drive the afterburner all the way back to the home, so when this special sky blue painted F4 re-landed on the runway of the TFB1 base, it was already close to noon that day.

The successful completion of the interception mission is not big or small, and for the Persian Air Force, at least it has a chance to prove itself again after a trough that lasted for nearly a decade.

"I said Lao Yang, what are they celebrating?"

Han Linping held a plate in his hand, which contained a bowl of fish soup, a chicken pilaf, and a roast lamb shoulder.

It was his first time in Persia, and although he didn't know much about the country before, and he didn't understand Persian, he could tell that there seemed to be a difference even by the atmosphere and the variety of food in his hand.

"Remember the F4EC we saw this morning?"

Yang Jin took Han Linping to the terrace on the second floor to find a place to sit down:

"I just heard that the plane carried out a successful interception mission, the first time in the entire TFB1 base in recent years, so naturally I have to celebrate."

"Just been upgraded by us?"

Han Linping, who had just taken a sip of soup, paused in mid-air.

"Yes, I heard that it was another F4 that intercepted the Turks." Yang Jin said as he opened a bottle of pomegranate juice and poured a glass for himself and Han Linping opposite.

Although the Persian prohibition was not strictly enforced, it was not possible to openly serve alcohol in such official settings, and fruit juice was generally used instead.

Of course, as for whether someone mixes wine in the juice to satisfy their cravings, that's a matter of the wise and the wise.

"I'm going?"

Han Linping, who heard the news, was directly startled, and almost spilled the drink in the cup with a shake of his hand.

After taking a sip to himself, Yang Jin explained nonchalantly:

"Our upgraded F4EC is actually a J-8C that looks very much like F4, and some 1473 technologies have been applied to the radar, and the performance is even better, even if the Turks' F4E is upgraded, the top is the level of the later F4J or F4S, in addition to the shell looks similar, there must be a generation difference of about 20 years, and it must be easily suppressed."

Han Linping immediately waved his hand:

"The point is not here, Turkey is a NATO country, although it is a marginal country of NATO, but if this opportunity can be used well, it is also an opportunity for us to export equipment to turn over......"

The reputation of Huaxia equipment almost fell to the bottom after the Iran-Iraq war, and this influence was not completely eliminated until nearly a decade later.

Although for some pocket-shy countries like Persia or Laoba, China's air force equipment has been able to enable them to achieve a leap in combat effectiveness, but now after all, it is the end of the 90s, and even if the MiG-21 is changed, it is no longer possible to enter the eyes of the real rich money.

And in order to occupy a place in the higher-end arms market, it is obviously not enough to rely on cost performance.

The best way is to make a world-renowned result, like the Exocet missile of the Falklands War, but this kind of opportunity is hard to come by, and in many cases, even if it is fired, it cannot be made public, just like the MiG-25 shot down at the beginning of the year, which has no direct significance for arms sales and propaganda.

In this case, a "cold conflict" that did not fire at each other can also serve as good propaganda material.

Basically, both sides will not make a big deal about this kind of border interception, but the weapons and equipment are not expected to be sold to the people who eat melons, as long as they can be registered in the hearts of the high-level people of several nearby countries.

The information gap here is quite large.

For example, after the Gulf War, although the reputation of Soviet-made equipment plummeted, in fact, it was France that was most negatively affected......

……

Compared with the current air force equipment that still needs to ponder and seek high-end breakthroughs, the situation of Huaxia military industry in the army is still better.

A national shooting range deep in the Badain Jaran Desert.

Professor Rui Xiaoting is taking several core members of his research group and the project team of Sichuan Aerospace Industry Corporation, which also came from afar, to carry out the final preparations before the equipment test.

If Chang Haonan was also present, then he should be very familiar with the rocket artillery parked in an open field not far away.

It was Rui Xiaoting who went to him less than two months ago to complete the design optimization of Guardian 2.

Although it still uses the same extended 6*6 wheeled chassis as the Guardian 1 provided by Iron Horse, the launch box on it has been firmly replaced with a 3*2 square shape.

"Lao Zhang! How's the preparation for the test? ”

Rui Xiaoting closed the notebook in his hand, handed it to a graduate student beside him, and then walked quickly to the side of the rocket artillery and asked loudly.

A half-white-haired engineer poked his head out of the operation room behind the cockpit:

"Don't worry, you're setting up the yuan according to the data given by the shooting range, and it'll be fine right away!"

Zhang Hongyin, designer of the Guardian series of rocket launchers.

Under normal circumstances, the test work of conventional artillery weapons and equipment will be arranged to be carried out at the Huayin Ordnance Test Center near Hojing, but the weapons they are going to test this time are really a bit special.

After leaving the capital and returning to Jinling, Rui Xiaoting used the method provided by Chang Haonan to optimize the directional tube rocket, further improve the aspect ratio and optimize the shape of the projectile, and combined with the new propellant that had just been developed, the ultimate range of the weapon system was directly increased from about 240km to about 350km.

And the center of Huayin is less than 150km away from the city of Hojing, so naturally there is no way to put it there for testing.

You must know that the range of the Dongfeng-11 short-range ballistic missile, which only entered service with the army five years ago, is about this level.

Of course, the warhead charge of a rocket is only about one-tenth to one-twentieth of that of a serious ballistic missile, and its lethality to point targets is not at the same level at all, and it is not possible to replace it with a range on paper.

For the PLA, which already has ballistic missiles in the equipment sequence, the main goal of long-range rocket artillery in the future is still the pursuit of rapid response and surface killing capabilities, so in the equipment selection carried out a few months ago, the plan of the Sichuan Provincial Aerospace Industry Corporation was finally defeated by the competitors of the North Industries Group with reference to the 9K58 Tornado design.

Although the latter has a shorter range, it has faster accuracy, firepower density and reaction speed, and finally won the favor of equipment systems.

However, in the export market, for those countries that do not have ballistic missiles at hand, range, is everything.

Therefore, since the launch of the first model of the Defender series, it has won the favor of many countries, especially those in urgent need of long-range deterrence weapons.

And Defender 2 has already had a lot of interested buyers in the design stage.

For example, at this moment, there were a few people standing not far behind Rui Xiaoting.
