Super Weapon Swap System
Chapter 1078
Today's visit to the base was quite pleasant. Seeing that President Bamu had made a decision on the introduction, it was time to sign the contract. At this time, Qin Guan frowned a little.
Another group of people came in the distance. Qin Guan could know from a distance that he was from Northrop by relying on the powerful spirit point scanning system.
No wonder they have been selling f-5g here recently. It seems that they are about to talk about it. Suddenly, Qin Guan stepped in again and the ducks they got are going to fly. How can they not be anxious?
Generally speaking, the countries selling do not meet each other, and they can't fight when they meet? However, they have been closed for several days and have long been worried. When they heard that President Bamu came here to inspect, they took the initiative to attack.
Led by John Thomas, chairman and decision-maker of Northrop, he personally attacked because this project is of great significance.
Northrop has made a lot of money in the international arms market by relying on F-5 fighters. In their eyes, there are at least thousands of f-5gs in the market. How can they not value them?
Northrop is one of the major aircraft manufacturers in Eagle country. Founded by John Northrop. Northrop's famous products include P-61 black widow night fighter, F-5 freedom fighter, f-20 tiger shark, B-2 and T-38. And the yf-23 black widow who lost to the F-22 in the competition!
It can be said that their military aircraft R & D capability is quite strong, especially the yf-23. This aircraft is more science fiction. It should be their better performance in the competition.
Unfortunately, the Eagle Air Force was afraid. In the research and development of the third-generation F-15, they blindly looked at the indicators and thought that the F100 engine indicators were high enough. What was the result? There's a problem with reliability. The F-15 has been prone to engine problems for several years, so I still think it's too sci-fi. It's better to be responsible.
Northrop's fighter failed to bid because it was too advanced. It was a wonderful flower.
Although this failed, they succeeded in the B-2 bomber, because the B-2 bomber, a science fiction flying wing bomber, was successfully developed by them and became the strategic force of the eagle country. Unfortunately, their cost control is not good. The eagle country couldn't afford it. In the end, it simply equipped more than 20 aircraft, just symbolic.
In later generations, Northrop and Grumman merged and became the world's first arms giant (or the second?)
Now, Northrop is at its most difficult time.
The F-5 is a second-generation aircraft. It is very difficult to continue to sell. It must be upgraded. This kind of aircraft with improved engines and Avionics needs sufficient funds. Of course, if it can be sold in advance, it is the best, and the company's investment will not be wasted.
At the same time, another project of the company has an unpredictable future, which is high-grade diamond.
Lockheed's success in F117 satisfied the Eagle Air Force. They all hope to make persistent efforts. After all, F117 is only an attack aircraft with a short operational radius, which can not meet the needs of the Eagle Air Force. They want to build a stealth bomber.
As a major company in the development of military aircraft, Northrop will certainly not give up this opportunity. After all, the Eagle Air Force intends to order hundreds of aircraft, which is a huge market.
Northrop's program code is "advanced diamond", which is an advanced aircraft with flying wing layout, which looks very sci-fi, while Lockheed's program code is "advanced nail", which is similar to an enlarged version of F-117.
"Senior diamond" is a key project of the company, which is designed by the senior vice president of the company's advanced program, vilco? E? Garcic presided over the plan. Hal? Markaryan is now in the bidding stage, so their investment is the company's own, which is quite expensive.
Although they were determined to win, it was generally believed that the team would win the competition in view of Lockheed's achievements in stealth technology and Rockwell's experience in the B-1 project.
Now, it is the time to decide life and death. It will take a few months. On October 20, 1981, the Eagle Air Force announced that Northrop had become the winner of the ATB contract, the aircraft number was B-2, and signed the initial contract of six test aircraft and two static test aircraft, plus the intended order of 127 production bombers. It is planned to reach the initial combat capability in 1987.
This outcome is puzzling. In fact, it is inappropriate only from a technical point of view. What is important depends on the Eagle Air Force's own consideration.
They suffered a loss on the F100 engine. Due to the selection of Pratt Whitney as the contractor, they lost the competition. As a result, Pratt Whitney was superior. Although they knew that there was a problem with the engine, they refused to improve it. They always carried out slowly and constantly asked for funds from the air force, which undoubtedly revealed the face of the capitalists.
It was not until the air force couldn't bear it that GE's F110 engine came out that Pratt Whitney felt the pressure and began to make efforts to mature the F100 engine.
The Eagle Air Force has suffered a great loss in this regard. Without F110, I don't know how long the F100 engine will be delayed and how much more it will cost.
Therefore, in their eyes, there is only competition.
Lockheed has succeeded in the F117 project. If the B-2 project is also handed over to them, Lockheed will be the dominant company. In this way, if they continue to delay and need funds, the air force really has no temper. Therefore, the air force must support another company with equal banner and drum.
Unfortunately, the later Northrop company was really disappointing. The cost control was in a mess and the cost was soaring. Finally, the Eagle Air Force lost patience and they also lost the development opportunity of yf23. When selecting the air force, the cost control of the two companies was absolutely taken into account.
In a few months, they will have the result of bidding for B-2, and the hope is still very small. Of course, they pay more attention to the current f-5g project.
Thomas's face was gloomy. Looking at several people present, he made a hum from his nose and swept over Qin Guan and Stanley. Then he said to Vice President Bamu: "Mr. President, we are very sincere in selling fighters to you, but I didn't expect that you secretly left us and made such contacts with the Han people. Does it look down on our Eagle country?"
Hearing the other party's arrogant attitude, Qin Guan couldn't help feeling happy. Are you talking about business like this? Hell if you don't break up the business!
He was afraid that it would be difficult to deal with. When he heard that the other party came up, Qin Guan was confident enough to kill you here today. Do you think it's the eagle country behind you?
You know, the last thing vice president Bamu likes is this kind of arrogance!
Another group of people came in the distance. Qin Guan could know from a distance that he was from Northrop by relying on the powerful spirit point scanning system.
