Chapter 949 We have F_16, we succeeded

It has been a while since Jiang Chen left the capital. Although he was very busy during this time, he has been paying attention to the situation in the direction of the capital and the progress of that project.It's just that for strategic needs and confidentiality needs, the information that can be disclosed is also very limited.The same is true for Jiang Chen. Although he is also a participant and foundation of this project, once the project is officially confirmed, it must be carried out with all its strength, and it is no longer Jiang Chen who can intervene casually.Just when Jiang Chen was about to forget about it because of his busy schedule, a call came from the capital.

"What did you say, I didn't hear clearly?" Jiang Chen asked in disbelief on the phone call.

"Hehe, at such a young age, my ears are not working well. Well, let me say it again, our project has made great progress. At present, the two parties have reached an agreement, in order to jointly deal with the Soviet Union's security threats in the Asia-Pacific , the old US agreed to provide us with emergency assistance of 24 -F16A/B fighters within two months after the agreement was reached. Among them, there are 24 single-seat A-type fighters, about two squadrons, and six double-seat B-type fighters, which will be jointly formed Training and multi-functional combat squadron. In addition, these [-] aircraft are accompanied by related missiles, spare parts, flight instructors and ground support teams. These people will help train and teach our pilots and logistics support personnel in China in the future. As well as the advanced training and combat methods for these new fighter jets. And the first batch of six planes will arrive in Jinmen within half a month." Deputy Director Song said with a laugh on the phone.

"Great, I succeeded, I really succeeded." Jiang Chen shouted excitedly.

Immediately, Deputy Director Song's laughing and cursing voice came from the phone: "What are you doing so loudly? My eardrums almost burst due to the noise. Also, what is your success? This is the credit of our entire team. Young people must know how to be humble. "

"Yes, yes, you are right, I accept criticism." Jiang Chen realized that he had lost his composure just now, so he responded with a smile.

"Well, but you did play a big role in this matter. Even when we were negotiating, the American personnel asked where you had been, and the chief in charge of this project also praised you very much." Deputy Director Song said with a smile.

"Hehe, this is what I should do. The chief, and what's more, our follow-up plan." Jiang Chen asked hastily.

"Look at your anxious look." Deputy Director Song scolded with a smile: "This project is still in progress, but you are also a member of the working group, so it's okay to tell you, you should keep it secret."

"Ah, forget it, the phone is not safe, why don't you talk about it." Jiang Chen hurriedly wept.

"Go, you boy. Let me tell you, this matter has spread in a small area, and you know almost everything you need to know. Their dog noses are much smarter than ours, which is why an agreement can be reached so quickly. .” Deputy Director Song explained.

"Oh, it was leaked so soon, it seems that my Uncle Yu and the others are not doing their job well, I have to call another day and talk about him." Jiang Chen joked.

Deputy Director Song rolled his eyes and said unhappily: "It's not our problem, it's Laomei's own problem. This is one of the reasons why they are so happy. It is to provide us with emergency equipment to deal with the response from the north. .”

"So that's how it is." Jiang Chen nodded and said, "According to what you said, there has been an action in the north. Did you send the Tu-22 to the Far East?"

Deputy Director Song shook his head and said: "It's more serious than this. Not only did they send the Tu-22 to the Far East, but they also sent reinforcements to the Far East with the two Su-27 flight regiments that had just entered service. One of the stations is the It is only [-] to [-] kilometers away from our border, and it only takes a few minutes to reach our territory after flying into the air. It is a great threat. And recently they have stepped up flight raids, and even crossed the border many times. In addition, South Korea and Japan and Japan The conflict between the old American forces on the side and the north has become more and more intense. I heard that there have been several confrontations. Therefore, considering these factors, the old American made a lot of concessions in the negotiations with us, and this project was passed so quickly. And it will be implemented immediately.”

"I said, but we have to be cautious in this regard, don't be tricked by Lao Mei." Jiang Chen suddenly said.

"Haha, put your heart in your stomach, the higher-ups are more considerate than you." Deputy Director Song said with a smile: "You must know that these fighters were originally given to us for free, but in order to refuse some of their conditions We insisted on paying because of the demands and requests. But because of these recent emergencies, the prices of these second-hand fighters are very cheap, far lower than our original expectations."

"Really, how low can it be to make you so happy." Jiang Chen asked curiously.

"I won't talk about the specific price. We have an agreement with them. Anyway, it's very low. It's about one-half to two-thirds of what we expected." Deputy Director Song still couldn't bear it. Zhu revealed a rough figure to Jiang Chen.

And Jiang Chen stopped and pouted, "I thought it was so cheap, but it turned out to be so expensive."

"Boy, people have to learn to be satisfied. What I'm talking about is the average price including the parts and other expenses that come with it." Deputy Director Song said angrily.

"Oh, that's about the same." Jiang Chen also smiled.

"You, it's done." Deputy Director Song teased Jiang Chen and continued: "The two sides have reached a division-scale emergency aid plan, which is the size of an American flight wing. The first F- The 16th Fighter Flying Regiment will arrive in China within two months, while the other two are the F-15 Fighter Flying Regiment and the other F-16 Fighter Flying Regiment. These two regiments are expected to arrive in succession within half a year. This This time, the higher-ups made up their minds to increase the combat effectiveness of our air force."

"This is a good thing, and I believe it will pay off in the future." Jiang Chen nodded and said, "What about our new fighter project? How about that project?"

Hearing Jiang Chen's question, Deputy Director Song put away his smile and said: "This project is still in progress, you know, according to the goals we set before, what we want to seek are the latest C/D models of these two fighters , so the negotiations are relatively slow. Moreover, the old United States is also cautious about our plan, and their internal debates are also very fierce. However, as the situation in the Asia-Pacific continues to deteriorate, I believe that the old United States will soon be unable to bear the pressure. We let it go. And the results of the cooperation between the two parties this time can be regarded as laying a foundation and template for the two parties to continue the negotiation. With this template, I believe that the next negotiation will be much better."

"Well, it's really difficult. But this is what we can think of. After all, what we want is Lao Mei's heart." Jiang Chen nodded.

The two sides were silent for a while, and Deputy Director Song said with a smile: "Okay, I called you today, mainly to tell you that you are concerned. In addition, I want to tell you that our previous negotiation was with The negotiations between the old American government, and the next negotiation is to contact the two major manufacturers of the old American. You have experience in communicating and negotiating with companies. So you may have to find some time to come back. Your general."

Hearing Deputy Director Song's words, Jiang Chen nodded seriously and said, "No problem, I will definitely be there when called."

"Well, this matter is not urgent, there is still a while. Now this negotiation has just ended, and there are still a lot of follow-up matters to be busy. You should finish dealing with your affairs first, and wait for my notice when the time comes." Song The deputy director smiled.

"Understood, don't worry, I will finish the work at hand as soon as possible." Jiang Chen nodded and replied.
