Dominate South Asia

President Song's statement set the tone for both parties to jointly develop it! It is beneficial to both parties.

"Okay, we need to go through careful demonstration. If your plan is better, we can also accept the duck layout." Mhammad said.

The fourth-generation aircraft is a big project that must be rigorously demonstrated. Currently, Pakistan is developing the fourth-generation aircraft, but it can only be called pre-research. Although Mhamad appreciates the benefits of variable sweep wings. However, if after demonstration, it is proved that the canard layout is more suitable, Hamad will also accept this layout. After all, even the new Soviet aircraft, the MiG 1.44, adopts the canard layout. .

On the first day he came to China, Mhammad reached a major agreement with China's Chengdu Aircraft. The fourth-generation aircraft is a major piece of equipment related to air combat in the next few decades. Pakistan and China cooperate in this regard. , will further deepen the cooperative relationship between the two countries.

After finishing this topic, Mhamad was very excited. He looked at Bai Xue sitting opposite him. Bai Xue was still considered an expert in China and was qualified to attend the meeting this time. Next to Bai Xue was Tu Kida.

Mr. Song is mainly responsible for the development of new models, while Tu Jida is using the remaining energy.

Feeling Mhamad's eyes looking this way, Tuqida felt hot in his heart. He said: "We are still raising funds by ourselves to develop a new foreign trade model. I wonder if Pakistan is interested in cooperating? "

Self-funded! With the successful development of the No. 10 aircraft, Chengdu Aircraft has accumulated rich development experience. Chengdu Aircraft's flagship product in recent years is the J-7, which has been sold to many countries in the third world. Therefore. Chengdu Aircraft also hopes to launch a replacement model in time.

Hearing Tu Kida's words, Mhamad was also startled. Could it be that Tu Kida was talking about Xiaolong?

Historically, Pakistan was unable to obtain advanced fighter aircraft due to U.S. sanctions. In the end, it had no choice but to develop the Xiaolong fighter jet with Chengdu Aircraft. When Xiaolong joined the Pakistan Air Force, the Chief of Staff of the Pakistan Air Force was so excited. Crying, finally got new equipment. It’s time to protect Pakistan’s airspace!

Now, history has taken a big turn. Pakistan already has a South Asian and even world-class air force. Naturally, it no longer needs low-end models like the Xiaolong.

Although Pakistan does not need it, many countries in the third world still have demand. They also need third-generation aircraft, but. They have insufficient funds, so they must launch another affordable third-generation machine. We can definitely capture their market!

After conducting dump research, Chengdu Aircraft decided to start in this area. Tu Jida is the chief designer of this type of aircraft.

This new aircraft model did not receive national project approval. It was entirely developed by Chengdu Aircraft itself. Now, the tide of market economy has swept across the entire world, and Chengdu Aircraft raised funds by itself. If you develop it yourself and market it yourself, the profits will be huge.

"Tell me about it?" Hamad asked.

Although Mhamad is the president of Pakistan and has never attended an aviation school, his knowledge is very profound. When he was still at the Peshawar base, President Song, President Tu and others Go to Pakistan. I was impressed by Mhammad's outstanding insights. But now, Mhammad is interested, which makes Tuqida very excited.

"Our model, codenamed Super Seven, is planned to be based on the J-7 fighter and adopt the same air inlets on both sides as the J-8II fighter. Leading edge flaps are added to the leading edge of the wing root and the equipment is replaced. The new turbofan engine. This can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of this fighter, especially the nose position, which can be installed with a large-caliber radar and have beyond-visual-range air combat capabilities," Tu Kida said.

Chengfei’s treasure is the J-7. In the Soviet Union, the MiG-21 was just a transitional model. The Soviet Union did not regard the MiG-21 as a key model. However, in China, the J-7, which was copied from the MiG-21, can be regarded as A meritorious model that has been in production for decades.

China has almost mastered all the technologies of the J-7. Therefore, based on the J-7, it changed the nose of the aircraft to have air intakes on both sides and installed a new engine to become a new model with less technical difficulty. This is the project under the leadership of Tu Kida at this time. It requires low investment and quick results. It can make its first flight as early as one year.

Hearing Tu Kida's words, Mhammad couldn't help but shook his head: "No, this improvement is too backward. The air intake on both sides is not suitable. When turning at high speed, the air intake on one side will be blocked, reducing the intake air intake." It is not conducive to air efficiency and is not conducive to flying at high angles of attack. To free up space in the nose, belly air intake is the most suitable. Yes. However, the air intake in the belly of the aircraft is easy to inhale foreign matter. Our base does not matter, but if it is exported to the third world, their runways will definitely be unclean, and if the engine is damaged, they will say that our aircraft is too bad. To take into account both reliability and excellent air intake efficiency, two-rib air intake is the most suitable.”

Bai Xue's eyes lit up after hearing Mhammad's words. Mhammad's profound knowledge was simply too admirable. In just a few words, he explained clearly the advantages and disadvantages of various air intakes, and also put forward some suggestions. A suitable plan, this man exudes a unique charm, attracting Bai Xue.

Tu Kida also nodded: "Yes, the air intake on both sides is a solution for second-generation aircraft. Few third-generation aircraft use air intake on both sides."

In fact, Mhamad's knowledge came entirely from the understanding of later generations. He knew that the aerodynamic shape of the Xiaolong was the most suitable for what was finally built, the crystallization of China-Pakistan friendship.

"It is not appropriate to use the J-7 airframe. After all, it is a MiG-21. No matter how you improve it, it will be difficult to achieve better performance. Now, large-strip wings have become popular, and airfoils with side-strip wings are used. With the addition of wing-body fusion, it is the same as the F-16 model currently used by Pakistan, and I think it is more suitable," said Mhammad.

Although it is a low-cost aircraft, it must have an excellent aerodynamic layout. As a classic third-generation aircraft, the F-16 has good aerodynamics. China has also conducted comprehensive surveying and mapping of the F-16. Mhammad proposed The point of view is based on structures similar to the F-16's airfoil, side wings and other structures.

The function of the wing is to generate vortex, which is a special kind of airflow that can greatly increase the lift of the wing and improve the flight performance at high angles of attack.

In fact, the later generations of Xiaolong are not very closely related to the F-16, but now that it is being re-developed, using the F-16 as a reference is also a very good choice.

"As for the engine, you should be planning to use the Spey engine, right?" Mhamad continued to ask.

Tu Kida nodded. If the other party hadn't been the president, Tu Kida would have suspected that the other party had stolen his own research information.

It’s not surprising that Mhammad could guess this. After all, for China, the only mature one now is the Spey engine. Spey’s increased thrust model, which is the TF41, is used to equip the J-10, while the prototype is used It is a good choice to equip this kind of foreign trade aircraft. After all, the later-generation Xiaolong uses the Soviet RD93 engine, with an intermediate thrust of less than 50 kN and an afterburner thrust of just 80 kN, which is similar to the parameters of Sibei.

"President Mhamad, your profound knowledge puts us technicians to shame." Turkeda said: "The plans you proposed are definitely much better than our previous plans, but such technical risks will also be greater. The investment we need will far exceed expectations. I’m afraid it won’t be finalized quickly.”

"Yes, such technical difficulty is much more difficult than modifying an aircraft based on the J-7, but the performance advantages are also obvious. The third world countries we are targeting need a cheap aircraft. aircraft, but if the performance is too poor, I'm afraid it will have to If they don't receive orders, they would rather equip themselves with less equipment and hope to have an aircraft with sufficient technical performance. Just modifying the J-7 will not be able to meet the needs. "Mhammad said: "Our Super-7 must at least meet the requirements. Only the F-16’s 70% level can open up the market.”

After finishing speaking, Mhamad paused: "Now is a new era. The era of winning by quantity no longer exists. The advantage of quality is more important. Our foreign trade machine must also attract enough It depends on the customer’s performance level. As for investment, we are willing to invest half of the money.”

Half the funding! Pakistan will share half of the development costs! It is originally self-funded, and the project budget is limited, so an improvement project based on the J-7 was proposed. If Pakistan provides half of the development costs, the new model can also be considered!

Tu Kida nodded: "If this is the case, we can sign the contract now, and we can reconsider your requirements and design a fighter with more advanced performance."

Now, Chengdu Aircraft has a full schedule of projects, including follow-up modifications of the J-10, new fourth-generation aircraft, and foreign trade aircraft. Without realizing it, Chengdu Aircraft has become the largest cradle of fighter aircraft in China.

Mhamad looked at the people present, suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, didn't the Soviet Union want to provide Su-27 fighter jets? How is this project going?"

Shen Fei has no new projects anymore. The main focus of the patchwork of aerial beauty is high altitude and high speed. The Su-27 was originally introduced, but it was highly recommended by Shen Fei and a group of guys from the Three Aircraft Department.

It has nothing to do with Mhamad, as long as Shenfei's project does not crowd out Chengdu's project. Mhammad asked this out of pure curiosity. (To be continued ~^~)
