Super Weapon Swap System

Qin Guan did not care about the fatigue of the journey and the time difference. Just after he landed in the long staple cotton country, he devoted himself to his work.

F-5g fighter, do you want to compete with yourself?

In the past decade, the main fighter of the eagle Navy and air force was F-4 ghost fighter. In terms of price and logistics maintenance cost, this kind of heavy fighter was difficult for allies other than the eagle and other countries that wanted to purchase Eagle fighters. Therefore, the eagle decided to develop light fighters for export to allies.

The first aircraft under this policy is the f-5a freedom fighter launched by Northrop based on the T-38 advanced trainer. Subsequently, the F-5E was launched based on the principle of improving avionics and strengthening air combat capability, and maintaining the original simplicity and easy operation and maintenance.

This fighter has achieved great success. Since its development in 1955, the number of F-5 series aircraft equipment has reached 2600, which has been sold to 32 countries, mainly f-5a / B, F-5E / F and other derivative types modified by various countries. It is widely used in the third world.

By the middle of the 1970s, Northrop analyzed the market of series F-4, F-5, MiG-21 and 4000 light fighters in the world, and hoped to occupy about 1500. Therefore, it put the F-5E successor on the agenda.

However, the Carter Administration issued presidential order No. 13 prohibiting the development of F5 improved aircraft for export purposes, but Northrop was still carrying out scheme design, and f404 was selected as the power in 1978.

This is the advantage of the eagle government. The president is bad for himself and doesn't have to pay attention to him. After he steps down, the new president's policy may change.

Therefore, the policies of the eagle country often change. In the hands of this president, a good policy may change completely in the hands of the next president.

Slowly, in January 1980, the Carter administration allowed the development of export aircraft with presidential instruction No. 3, and there were options

It is required to export aircraft between F-5E and F-16, but the government does not provide financial support. This is the reason for the FX project.

According to the analysis of Northrop, under the constraints of FX policy, F-16 will not be exported, that is, it will compete with f-5g. General Dynamics competes with the old F-16 j79 engine as an export model.

Now, although this fighter has not completed its first flight, it is improved on the basis of F-5E, and there will be no big problem. In particular, it uses the same f404 engine, which aims at the j-14 market at once.

Now, with Northrop's people fooling around in the long staple cotton country, their senior government officials have gradually tended to use and operate this kind of fighter.

This has changed a lot with history.

In history, Han countries mainly exported J-6 and J-7 to long staple cotton countries. Although long staple cotton countries were satisfied with the price of fighters, they felt bad about their performance. Later, they introduced Eagle F-16 fighters.

Now, China has built the j-14 specially for export. This aircraft is originally a light third-generation aircraft. If it is delivered to the long staple cotton country, it can replace the F-16 and become the main fighter of the long staple cotton country. At the same time, the F-16 can not be exported because the export ban has not been lifted, and Northrop company just sold the f-5g, It seems that the long staple cotton people are very moved?

How to convince them?

With this idea, Qin Guan walked into the Ministry of national defense.

At the NiuGuo air show, Qin Guan had met Marshal Badawi, Minister of national defense. This time, he wanted to visit the marshal, but who knows, after waiting outside for a long time, Qin Guan was not received.

"Is this Marshal Badawi so hard to see?" Qin Guan said to Ambassador Yao.

Ambassador Yao's face changed: "general Qin, marshal Badawi died in an air crash a few months ago."

No wonder! Qin Guan realized that a few months ago, marshal Badawi went to the border to inspect and took a mi-8 helicopter. As a result, the helicopter just took off and fell down. None of the people inside came out alive.

Field marshal Badawi is interested in the j-14 fighter, but he is gone now. The new defense minister seems to be inclined to the West.

This made Qin Guan's face very ugly. Well, since you don't want to receive, I'll go over to your boss.

"Go to their presidential palace and let's find the vice president," Qin Guan said.

Ambassador Yao took Qin Guan to the presidential palace. It happened that vice president Bamu was coming out of the presidential palace.

"Your Excellency, please stay." ambassador Yao was also worried and shouted to Bamu, "I'll waste you a few minutes."

Bamu saw Ambassador Yao and immediately stopped: "Mr. ambassador, what's the hurry?"

"I'm very sorry that I didn't make an appointment with you in advance. Let me introduce you. This is Comrade Qin Guan, general manager of our domestic North Industry Company." ambassador Yao said.

Afraid that the vice president of the day-to-day machine is not clear, Ambassador Yao continued: "President Qin is responsible for the development of our domestic military enterprises and foreign arms sales, and maintains close and friendly relations with many countries, such as silly big wood, President of yezao country, who has a good personal relationship with President Qin."

Vice President Bamu is very friendly to the Han country. At the same time, he learned to fly in Xiong country in his early years, flew tu-16 bombers after returning home, served as commander of the air force of the long staple cotton country, and is familiar with the aviation technology of the East and the West.

Now, vice president Bamu was impressed by Ambassador Yao's introduction and said, "it's president Qin. What's up?"

"Mr. President, I came to your country specially. I know that your country lacks modern combat aircraft, so I want to order a batch. Our j-14 fighters are your best choice, but I didn't expect that the current Eagle company came to sell to your country. Their fighters completely don't meet the service conditions of your country. I hope you can give careful consideration."

The vice president's time is very precious. He stopped the other party at the door. That's a few words. Qin Guan must pick up the key points.

President Bamu frowned: "I read the following report about the j-14 fighter. Later, I mentioned the f-5g. You said it didn't meet our use conditions. What's the matter?"

"Eagle's fighters have always been the most sophisticated, and you mainly operate Xiong's fighters, which are strong and durable. In this way, if you want to operate eagle's fighters instead, there will be many problems in the maintenance of fighters, resulting in a significant decline in the dispatch rate of fighters. In contrast, our fighters are more suitable for Xiong's system and will not cause maintenance problems."

Qin Guan thought of the biggest breakthrough point in an instant, and hit the key with one word.

President Bamu continued, "is there any basis for saying so?"

Eagle's fighters sell well all over the world. How come we are not acclimatized? Of course, President Bamu should ask clearly. In order to sell their fighters, the other party will of course splash other people's dirty water. These can be imagined by himself. It's not easy to fool himself.

"Needless to say, the most advanced third-generation aircraft in Eagle country, even the current F-4 fighters in Eagle country, how are you operating now after they are equipped to you?" Qin Guan said: "can your F-4 fighters now have a dispatch rate of 20%?"
