Under the leadership of Qin Guan, Han's aviation technology is advancing by leaps and bounds, but Qin Guan found that he seemed to have overlooked one aspect.

It is the demand of the Air Force!

In terms of engines, Qin Guan is actively working to promote the localization and improvement of Spey. In terms of the whole machine, Qin Guan even made two big players, Raptors and Blue Sharks. In terms of foreign trade machines, Qin Guan made Super Seven. .

The launch of these projects can be said to have been promoted by Qin Guan, and now, seeing the technology of airborne air-to-air radar, it is about to achieve a breakthrough.

However, these are all made by Qin Guan. What is Qin Guan? The person in charge of foreign trade, then, in the eyes of the Air Force, what are their own projects?

I am afraid it will be some fooling projects. The Raptors and Blue Sharks seem to be imitations are still in the foreseeable future, but the progress of Super Seven is smooth and has been working on, but this project is a foreign trade aircraft. It is destined to have no strong performance, and the Air Force looks down on it.

Qin Guan is already a frequent visitor to the Ministry of Aviation Industry and is highly valued by them. However, Qin Guan hasn't been around with the Air Force much. With these generals around, Qin Guan has never dealt with anybody except General Zhang.

In the eyes of the Air Force, what is Qin Guan? A person who specializes in packaging backward equipment into tall things and then selling them to make money is nothing more than a country that is more backward than Han.

And now, the Tomcat suddenly arrived, and in the eyes of the Air Force, it was just timely rain.

All of this, of course, comes from the threat of Tu-22M.

In the Soviet Union, fighters are mainly MiG series, interceptors are Sukhoi series, trainers are Yak series, and large aircraft, if you do your part, are Tupolev series.

After World War II, Xiong State mainly produced Tu-16 and Tu-22. Over time, these two bombers could no longer meet the needs of Xiong State.

With the development of air defense systems, it is necessary to be able to penetrate defenses at supersonic speeds at low altitudes to be combat effective. As the first supersonic bomber of Xiong, the performance and range of the Tu-22 bomber were not very satisfactory. After oil and missiles, it is impossible to fly at supersonic speed. Even if the speed reaches Mach 1.5 when it reaches the target, it cannot effectively avoid the interception of fighter jets and air defense missiles.

Therefore, Xiong Guo decided to engage in a new generation of bombers. At first, the Tupolev Design Bureau didn't pay much attention. He planned to fix it on Tu-22. Later, he found out that other design bureaus almost snatched the project. So it finally improved it drastically, using the most popular variable swept wing design at the time, plus two turbofan engines with a thrust of 249 kN that were abnormal and perverted, resulting in powerful performance.

Relying on variable swept wings, it can penetrate defenses at low altitude and supersonic speed. This powerful combat capability shocks the Western world. For example, it can carry long-range anti-ship missiles and attack Eagle Nation’s aircraft carrier formation. Aircraft carrier buster.

At the same time, it can also carry tactical and strategic nuclear weapons. With its long range, it can fly in circles to the capital of Han.

So, what does the Han Air Force need?

High altitude and high speed, intercepting Tu-22M bomber! Under this idea, Han developed the J-8, but because of its weak foundation, after so many years of working, it didn't even have a suitable radar. It could only be a daytime type that could be intercepted visually.

Now, Eagle State has given the green light of arms sales to Han State. Last time, Han State bought an F-16, which was seen through by Han State, and was quite angry. Now, they finally came up with the real thing.

Tomcat fighter!

This is a variable swept-wing fighter developed by Eagle in the 1970s. It has a very smooth appearance. If you have seen High Aspiration, you will definitely be impressed with this fighter. At the same time, its main function is to intercept the bear country remotely. Of the bomber.

The Tomcat fighter is a combination of AWG-9 radar and Phoenix missile.

The AWG-9 radar is the first large-scale fighter radar to use a flat-slot radar antenna. Its farthest detection distance for bombers is more than 300 kilometers. It can be used as a small early warning aircraft. At the same time, it relies on pulse Doppers. With the help of Le, it can detect targets from ground clutter.

All of these have made the air forces of other countries drooling with envy. At the same time, in order to match this extremely abnormal radar, it also has a super abnormal missile, the Phoenix missile, which weighs half a ton. The missile has a maximum range of more than 100 kilometers.

It can be said that once you get this kind of fighter, you will have a long-range sniper capability of 100 kilometers!

One hundred kilometers, how against the sky? Common sparrow missiles have an effective range of only 40 kilometers! It can be said that it is the only one in the world!

And this kind of weapon is the leading product of Grumman.

Grumman invested a lot of energy in developing this aircraft, and its buyer, if only the Eagle State Navy, it is far from enough. However, in foreign arms sales, this fighter has repeatedly failed. Because it is always suppressed by the F-15 Eagle, it has nothing to do except for the successful sale to the Parthian nation.

And now, Grumman is also in a hurry. A small Super Seven project, put it aside, if it can successfully sell the Tomcat fighter to Han, Grumman will have a cash cow in the future. Up!

The army of Han is systematic, although his industry is so backward. Once the Tomcat enters China, the future fighters of the Han Air Force will inevitably be infected with Grumman's blood.

This also means that Grumman will not only be able to sell aircraft, but also technology, accessories, overhaul lines, and even production equipment.

Want to intercept the Figure 22m Backfire, Phoenix missile, at least hundreds, or even thousands of orders?

The variable swept wing technology of the Tomcat brings excellent low-altitude performance. Should we improve the avionics in the future and become a bomb cat?

Han Guo has designed a certain type of air-to-air missile and wants to integrate it into Tomcat. Should our engineers write the weapon interface?

The TF30 engine currently used by the Tomcat is not reliable, should I upgrade to a better engine in the future?

Should Han Guo send pilots to Eagle Country for training? How is the training fee calculated?

Wait, a series of benefits are in it. This is a lot of money, and it can be made with a steady stream of money.

Now, just in the honeymoon period with Han, Grumman, as a military-industrial complex, is too much affected by the political situation of Eagle, and the opportunity to enter Han can be said to be fleeting.

Now, this opportunity must be seized!

Sure enough, when they sold it, the Han Guo Air Force was extremely excited.

Qin Guan is now clear about all this, but Qin Guan did not speak, he came uninvited, and now he can only act as a bystander.
