Dominate South Asia

"Mr. Lehak, very happy to see you." After coming out of the ward, Lilith met with Pe-Lehak in a quiet cafe outside the hospital.

At this time, Pe-Lehak had a lonely expression on his face.

Unlike China and the Soviet Union, any American fighter rarely mentions who the chief designer is. The excellent appearance of the Su-27 created the myth of Simonov, and the J-10 fighter is full of the glory of Mr. Song. When it comes to American fighters, few people know the designer. Who is the designer of the F-15? An American. Who is the designer of the F-14? An American.

Americans have always emphasized teamwork, but Pe-Lehak in front of him is the chief designer of Grumman, leading the design work of the entire department, so the Tomcat fighter is naturally from his hand.

Now, the Tomcat fighter is going to retire, not sealed, but completely destroyed, replaced by Boeing's F-18! This medium-sized aircraft does not even have the ability to intercept at a long distance! How can we take on the task of seizing the future fleet air supremacy! This is almost the consensus of the entire Grumman company. Only the heavy Tomcat fighter is the future direction!

Damn commercial competition! Those guys from Boeing bribed many members of Congress and took advantage of this opportunity to make the US fleet lose a powerful carrier-based aircraft!

This is almost the idea of ​​all Grumman personnel, especially the designers of the Tomcat fighter. They watched the Tomcat fighter gradually mature under their hands, and now there are stealth advanced carrier-based aircraft models. At this most critical moment, it was aborted! It's as if their children are gone, and many people have lost their souls.

Pe-Lehak in front of him is one of them. He has always been proud of Grumman's Tomcat fighter. The performance of this fighter. Far exceeds the Air Force's F-15!

However, performance alone is not enough. Grumman's relationship with the top is not enough.

"The president was ill because of the Iran-Contra affair. Now, the company is finally getting better. After learning that Pakistan has ordered this batch of new fighters, our company's stock has risen, Mrs. Lilith. All of this is thanks to you." Per-Lehak said to Lilith.

"It's a pity that such an important military aircraft of our Grumman company has lost the opportunity to continue to soar in the sky." Lilith said, "It's really unfortunate."

"Those members of Congress don't know how good our fighter is!" Lehak took a sip of coffee and swallowed it down like drinking.

The latest project is the Navy's advanced carrier-based aircraft plan, the stealth modification of the Tomcat, which is about to be tested on the prototype. But it has such a result!

"Yes, it's a pity that this fighter has died without a disease." Lilith said, "But. It would be great if it could be reborn in another country!"

Lilith's words made Lehak stunned. He knew that Lilith had something to say.

"Mrs. Lilith, are you saying that Pakistan is interested in our new aircraft?" Lehak asked.

Lehak can be said to love and hate Pakistan. Pakistan has imported a large number of Tomcat fighters. This fighter has achieved impressive results on the battlefield in Afghanistan, which makes Grumman feel proud. However, there have been rumors that Pakistan is privately copying this fighter! For the designers of the Tomcat fighter, this kind of copycat behavior is intolerable.

"Yes." Lilith said very straightforwardly: "Pakistan is also carrying out a new fighter project, which is a fourth-generation aircraft project based on the Tomcat fighter. If you want to see the Tomcat fighter continue to fly in the future sky and watch your children continue to grow, you can go to Pakistan. You can become the deputy chief designer of the entire project!"

Lilith came to the United States and Grumman, not just to see her father, but also to attract people!

In the early years of Pakistan's war against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan. Many engineers, scientists, and technical staff of Grumman have cooperated and communicated with Pakistan, and they have formed a "deep friendship" with each other. After the US government made the decision to forcibly retire the Tomcat and completely destroy it. These people were so desperate and lost. Anyone who saw their life's work being denied and wasted like this would be extremely sad.

So, under the instruction of Muhammad, Lilith contacted these people through various investment companies, various intermediary agencies covered by private enterprises, and under the guise of normal business cooperation, telling them that there was an opportunity for them to continue to care for and raise their "children". So, for a simple reason: let the Tomcat fighter fly in the sky again, proving that it is the strongest! At the same time, due to the complete loss of the carrier-based aircraft project, Grumman was forced to lay off a large number of employees. These skilled aircraft designers needed a chance to survive in their jobs and needed a completely identical project!

Now, Grumman engineers have imagined a variety of possible improved models of the F-14D "Super Cat", some of which have breakthroughs in stealth and can meet most of the multi-purpose requirements expected by the US Navy at that time, such as the F-14E "Silent Cat" plan; there are also electronic warfare E/F-14G "Roaring Cat" plans similar to the E/F-18G "Roaring Hornet". Bringing these engineers and these designs to Pakistan, and letting the Tomcat fighter in their hearts be "reborn" like a phoenix, will definitely make them very excited!

At the same time, Pakistan's current project is progressing steadily, but the Tomcats currently produced are all surveyed and mapped. They don't know why they were designed this way at the beginning. With these original designers, it is quite clear why they were designed this way at the beginning, which has a great role in promoting the development of Pakistan's new models.

At the beginning, Huaxia surveyed a Soviet weapon system and found a piece of soap inside it. They didn't know why and thought it was used for lubrication. As a result, when they made it, they also put a piece of soap inside. Finally, they asked Soviet experts to explain it. The other party laughed and said that the soap they had thrown was inside!

Lilith has mobilized a group of engineers. Now, inviting chief designer Pe-Lehak is an important step for Lilith. With the addition of this guy, Pakistan's fourth-generation aircraft will be able to make rapid progress.

Of course, if this guy leaves, I don't know if old Pierre will vomit blood on the hospital bed again. Lilith can't care so much now. As the first lady of Pakistan, Lilith has a great awareness, but her father shouldn't be so stingy, right? His son-in-law has realized his ideals, allowing Grumman's fighters to continue flying and letting those short-sighted guys in Congress see that Grumman's design is not wrong!

Now there is another very good condition, which is the relationship between Pakistan and the United States! Allowing the United States to use Pakistan's military bases is almost equivalent to a military alliance. Moreover, Americans nowadays do not dislike Pakistan at all. At most, they just think that Pakistan is a bit desolate.

If Pakistan and the United States are in opposition, many people will probably hesitate.

"Does President Muhammad value our variable-sweep-wing fighters?" While Lilith was waiting, Lahak asked Lilith.

"Yes, Muhammad has always valued the advantages of variable swept wings and believes that no matter how aerodynamic technology develops, this structure will not be outdated." Lilith said according to Muhammad's analysis: "Our Pakistani future fighters are also based on variable swept wing structures. It requires the cooperation of many technicians to fly in the future sky. Don't you hope that you will have a share of the credit here?"

In addition to the wing strips and the vertical tail with a large inclination angle, future fighters must also have variable swept wings! Lahak has participated in the design of many projects, but this Tomcat fighter is the design he is most proud of. If there are also stealth aircraft with variable swept wings in the future sky, how fascinating it would be!

"Okay, I'm willing to go." Lahak said.

"On behalf of Pakistan, I welcome you." Lilith said.

Being able to dig up Lahak is the biggest gain of Lilith's visit to the United States this time! When Lahak arrived in Pakistan, he soon participated in Pakistan's new aircraft project and worked hard, because that was the place to realize his ideal!

No matter what international events you encounter, you must actually transform them into your own interests. Everything is for your own development! Pakistan now has only one goal, which is to seize the time and develop its own strength as soon as possible!

The addition of Grumman's designers has brought Pakistan's fighter development to a new level, and many of the problems encountered before have been solved.

After discovering that many Grumman technicians had fled to Pakistan, the CIA director made a secret report to Bush Sr., but the result of the report was no result.

The United States now needs Pakistan as an ally. At this time, there is no need to dig up a few aircraft designers. Even if Grumman helps Pakistan design aircraft, the United States must agree.

On October 6, 1992, the US aircraft carrier "Independence" and 6 frigates sailed to the Persian Gulf, and 1 cruiser, 1 destroyer and 5 large warships joined the aircraft carrier formation in the Indian Ocean. At the same time, Lloyd's of London, a famous insurance company, announced that it would immediately set up a war insurance payment to pay all ships heading to this area. (To be continued ~^~)
