Chapter 284 The Pit of the Falcon Early Warning Plane

  General national arms sales will distinguish between self-use and export.

In this regard, Lao Maozi did the most thorough job. In order to avoid the export of weapons that leak the parameters for his own use, all the exported weapons are the monkey version. The T-72 for his own use, the turret is filled with quartz **** when pouring, and the exported version, It is directly sand, and as a result, all the reputations have been ruined in the wars in the oil area in the past few years.

Exports from Britain and the United States will depend on the person ordering the dishes, and some will be sold just by modifying the parameters of the electronic system. However, in many cases, they will also cheat customers. For example, it is still a tank. The M1 tank is extremely powerful, so some countries have purchased advanced Western tanks such as M1 or Leopard-2. As a result, on the battlefield, it is impossible to fly the turret or fly the turret. of.

  However, generally speaking, the ones for self-use are higher than the ones for export.

   But domestic exceptions.

   In many weapon systems, the performance of the exported ones is better than that of the self-used ones.

  Take the J-7 fighter jet as an example. HUDs, Marconi radars, etc. are first equipped for export aircraft.

  The same is true for tanks. The 105mm tank gun with an extended barrel is given priority to foreign countries.

  Why?

  Poor.

  Advanced equipment, the performance index seems to be very good, but how reliable it is, I don’t know! Equipped by yourself, what if it is unreliable? Therefore, let customers use it first. During use, accumulate some experience and see the effect. After there is no problem at all, they will use it for themselves.

   As for leaks? Anyway, our technology is not good at all, far from the world's advanced level! If you leak it, you will leak it.

  So, according to Qin Tao's speculation, exporting a production line of anti-ship missiles should not cause any major problems. Although we boast about Chinese flying fish and the like, in fact, the performance is far from the world's advanced level, especially the sunburn and the like, and even the P-700. Qin Tao got it up.

  The advanced anti-ship missile that is currently kept secret should be a supersonic anti-ship missile under pre-research. This kind of subsonic Chinese flying fish can be sold as soon as it is sold. There is nothing to worry about.

   "I heard that the Third Academy has installed the turbojet engine with an anti-ship missile, and the range has exceeded 100 kilometers. Do you want to sell this missile?"

   Sure enough, it was exactly what Qin Tao thought!

  If you have to choose, it must be a new model!

   Let the customer help you check the performance of the new model!

"Taozi, we need to study carefully about the sale of the 022 missile boat and the related production line, and then submit it to the superior for approval." Wu Shengli said, "However, the matter of vertical take-off and landing fighter jets can be handled according to your requirements." In a few days, Lao Maozi's group of personnel will be delivered, and you can take them to the 611 office, arrange work for them first, and start it according to the plan you said." Wu Shengli I spoke.

  These old men were fooled into doing vertical take-off and landing fighter jets, so now, we can’t let them down, we have to do what we need to do, and let’s set up the stall first, even if it’s just a pre-research project.

  Qin Tao nodded, and then said the last thing.

   "I also got a large amount of technical information related to the Yak-44 from Lao Maozi."

   "Jacques-44?" Everyone present was surprised.

  As naval officers, they certainly know what the Yak-44 is.

   "Didn't Lao Maozi give up this model a long time ago?"

   "Yeah, I thought that was the case too, and then I thought it was the old man playing tricks. Finally, I finally know the history of this model. It's really emotional. This story is very long. Do you listen to it?"

  Everyone nodded.

   After listening to it, everyone was very emotional, there were twists and turns!

"This airframe is very similar to the American E-2 early warning aircraft, but the performance of Lao Maozi's electronic equipment is beyond praise. Therefore, what we got back is just a shell. If the Navy wants to use it, We have to put it into our electronic equipment in the future." Qin Tao said: "By the way, these also cost a lot of money, and the navy has to find a way to reimburse me."

"Yes, we have to install our own electronic equipment, but we don't have the relevant technology at the moment!" Wu Shengli said with emotion: "This kind of early warning aircraft technology is the most high-end. Funds are tight and cannot be invested in this kind of project.”

The early warning aircraft is a multiplier of air combat power. It moves the radar into the sky, so that those ultra-low-altitude penetrating aircraft can't hide. Therefore, the technical difficulty of early warning aircraft is very high, and there are not many countries in the world that can build early warning aircraft.

  The British used to build a fan-hunting early warning aircraft on the platform of the fan-hunting anti-submarine aircraft, but they finally gave up because of the technical difficulty. Directly buy the ready-made E-3 early warning aircraft in the United States.

This kind of aircraft is the most urgent need of the air force. Now that the air force already has the Su-27 fighter jet, it also urgently needs an air platform such as an early warning aircraft. When they come up with it and modify the relevant technologies, the navy can eat ready-made ones. It's really delicious. .

but…

   "I heard that the Air Force has gone to Damao to inspect their A-50 early warning aircraft, but they are not satisfied with the performance of their electronic equipment. It is said that they have recently gone to the Kingdom of David."

  Qin Tao frowned.

Qin Tao's report work has been completed, and it's time to get off work. Qin Tao and Wu Shengli are walking on the way home together. The cold wind blows like knives. into Qin Tao's heart.

   "Taozi, do you have something on your mind?"

  Wu Shengli had noticed Qin Tao's restlessness a long time ago, but he didn't know what it was because of, and now he finally couldn't help asking.

   "Dad, are you free? How about we visit Mr. Lin?" Qin Tao finally made up his mind.

  ? Wu Shengli hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, there must be Moutai at Lao Lin's side, let's go, let's go to his place for a drink!"

  Lin's hometown.

   "A rare visitor!" Mr. Lin looked at Qin Tao: "Mr. Qin, who manages so many things every day, when will you be free to come and sit with me?"

   "Old Lin, I heard that you have Moutai here, so I came here for a drink."

   "Old Lin, do you only welcome my son-in-law? It seems that I am a redundant person?"

   "That's right, a few days ago, we were still drinking together. You will drink up my Moutai. Today, you should talk less, and President Qin and I will chat more."

  Old friends met, laughed and laughed, sat together, ate a few mouthfuls of food, drank a few mouthfuls of wine, and finally got to the point.

"President Qin went to Lao Maozi's place this time and successfully completed the mission. Our Air Force's next-generation aircraft will have a heart." Elder Lin said, "This Lockheed company is really awesome, and it is dedicated to helping us. If it wasn't for their divine assists, it's probably impossible for Lao Maozi to be so happy."

  Qin Tao smiled. Although the Tumansky Design Bureau has declined, in the eyes of Lao Maozi, the R-79 engine is really a good thing, and it is not so easy to reach an agreement with his own side.

  First the car accident, then the car bomb, these things aroused the strong feelings in Lao Maozi's heart, so the agreement was reached.

   It's not easy!

  Wu Shengli took a look at his son-in-law. Certain things can be done, but they must not be said.

   "This time, taking advantage of the right opportunity, we even got back the shell of the Yak-44." Qin Tao said: "Then I heard that the Air Force is also going all out to get an advanced early warning aircraft?"

"Yeah, we went to the country of David to investigate. They are developing the Falcon early warning aircraft. This is a brand new early warning aircraft that uses active phased array radar technology." Wei Guo's cooperation has not yet started, and it is not considered a leak.

  In the world, there are not many countries that can develop early warning aircraft. The Kingdom of David is one of them. Although it is a tiny place in terms of land area, its military research and development capabilities are really not covered.

  American early warning aircraft, the big plate is just a huge flat slot radar antenna, the Davids began to use advanced active phased array radar technology to build early warning aircraft!

"Speaking of which, they are really creative. The early warning aircraft we usually see are all topped with a big plate. What about David? Antenna arrays are arranged on both sides of the fuselage, and a big nose is added to the nose, so that It’s an idea to avoid having too much impact on the aerodynamic layout.”

"Yes, this is the advantage of active phased array radar technology. T/R components can be installed in any position. When the technology develops in the future, it can be directly implanted into the skin. But, now David People do this, behind the buttocks, that is a proper blind spot!"

When Qin Tao said this, Elder Lin also said with emotion: "That's right, the tail of the plane is indeed a blind spot, and there is no way to make a big **** out there like the Hunter AWACS. Our Air Force plans to use those Il -76 to change, the rear is the rear door, and it cannot be used."

   Sure enough, as Qin Tao guessed, the Air Force has no other platform but to use the Il-76. The transport aircraft Qin Tao bought last time finally came in handy.

"Our initial idea is to modify it to carry a large plate on the back like the A-50 early warning aircraft." Lin Lao said: "Let's send the aircraft platform to the Davids and let them install it for us. Early warning radar, so that there will be no blind spots, even if it costs hundreds of millions, the money must be spent, the Air Force cannot do without early warning aircraft.”

   "Mr. Lin, I think this plan is impossible to succeed." Qin Tao said: "Early warning aircraft is a strategic weapon."

At this time, Mr. Lin was eating a piece of braised pork, when his chewing mouth suddenly stopped, and the gravy of the braised pork flowed out from the corner of his mouth. He hesitated for two seconds before wiping it with the back of his hand, and then quickly Swallow the braised pork into the stomach.

   "You mean, we will encounter huge resistance?" Elder Lin asked.

"Yes, many people will not see that we have acquired such a big killer as the AWACS. They will use various means to stop it. We can only develop such key equipment as the AWACS on our own, and we cannot rely on others." Qin Tao said: "The old man is not afraid of other people's pressure, but the Davids are not."

  Now Qin Tao is already a prophet in the eyes of many people. Whatever he said will definitely come true. At this time, Mr. Lin had to think seriously.

   AWACS is indeed at the strategic level. Our side pursues early warning aircraft, and many people don't want our side to have this kind of weapon.

   "So, what should we do?" Elder Lin asked.

"Self-developed, this kind of key equipment can only be developed by ourselves. Now, the 14th Institute is already developing the Sea Star radar system for the navy. This kind of radar technology can also be used on early warning aircraft. After all, the T /R components are the same, and their post-processing is also very similar." Qin Tao said: "Using our Il-76 body, first modify one by ourselves, as long as we make up our minds, we will be able to make it. It can be produced by bombing a star, let alone this kind of thing?"

  Old Lin nodded: "Yes, relying on others is unreliable."

  Wu Shengli realized at this time that Qin Tao was worried enough not only for the Navy, but also for the Air Force.

  However, these can also be unified. After all, only the Air Force first develops the technology of early warning aircraft by itself, can it provide convenience for the Navy! If the technology of the Davids is introduced, they may not necessarily teach themselves.

   Is the navy going to send the Yak-44 there for the Davids to refit?

"If we pin our hopes on others, it will not only cost a huge amount of money, but also delay our time. In the past, we were delayed for ten years, and now we are struggling to catch up. If it is because of foreigners, it will be delayed again After a few years, the Air Force's wish to have an early warning aircraft has still not come true."

  In addition to financial issues, time is more important! Cooperating with the Davids and then terminating due to external pressure, those years were lost in vain.

"Taozi, you are right." Elder Lin said, "But now, we have already discussed with the Davids, and they also intend to develop it for us, as long as we can give them the body. Now, their Fair The Kang early-warning aircraft is progressing smoothly, and it is estimated that it will be finalized smoothly next year, and when their early-warning aircraft enters service, they will be able to start rebuilding for us."

   "It's not impossible to cooperate with them."

What?

  Qin Tao What does this mean? You just exaggerated the risk, but now you agree?

Both Wu Shengli and Lin Lao were looking at Qin Tao with surprised eyes, and at this time Qin Tao showed a sly smile on his face: "Their modification does not conflict with our self-research, we can send out The self-developed team should go and modify it together. At the same time, we must also formulate the terms in the contract. No matter what the reason is, as long as the Davids do not modify the early warning aircraft for us, they will need to compensate us for a lot of losses. If The contract is 400 million, then we will ask them to pay 800 million, one billion! At that time, we will not only learn some technology from the Davids, but also earn a sum of money from this project. This compensation is enough for us I modified four AWACS aircraft myself."

  Wu Shengli showed a smile on his face, his son-in-law is really black-bellied.

Mr. Lin looked at Qin Tao with complicated eyes. After a long time, he said with emotion: "Old Wu, I really envy your son-in-law! If he becomes my son-in-law, then our Air Force will be able to take several steps forward. .”

   "Tch, you don't have a suitable daughter either. Could it be that you have..."

   "Fuck you! You have a son outside, come on, drink, drink!"

The big stone in Qin Tao's heart has finally been let go. For him, the air force project has nothing to do with him, but if he encounters it, he can help by the way, of course he will help, even if it is just a reminder, it is also very useful of.

  In this way, related projects of the navy can also be promoted. Who makes the navy run out of money?

   "By the way, Mr. Wang from the 14th Institute is very powerful. He is always strong and energetic. If he is allowed to take the lead and preside over our air force's early warning aircraft, it will be absolutely fine." Qin Tao continued to recommend candidates.

  Old Wang, was originally the father of the early warning aircraft of the motherland, and now he can just use his expertise.

"Well, we will arrange these." Elder Lin replied in the affirmative, and then looked at Qin Tao: "What other good things did you get? I heard from Elder Jiang and the others that you have been away from the main force for several days. "

   "I just bought two Mi-26s and two Mi-171s." Qin Tao smiled.

   "What? Mi-26? Good stuff!"

  "Mr. Lin, the Mi-171 is good. I promised them that I would recommend it to our Air Force and Army Aviation. If you are interested, you can organize a study tour and go over to have a look. The key is that it is cheap, half the price of the Black Hawk."

  Old Lin nodded: "When the army aviation was formed, all the helicopters of our air force were allocated. We really should purchase a batch, and we will arrange it soon. Is there anything else good?"

   "Old Lin, you are planning to inquire about our navy's secrets!" Wu Shengli glanced at him with some dissatisfaction.

"Cut, just your navy, what other secrets do you have?" Mr. Lin also dismissed it: "Everyone knows that you want to build an aircraft carrier, but you don't have much money. You also plan to use the modified Su-27 as a carrier aircraft."

Seeing Mr. Lin's affirmative expression, Wu Shengli couldn't help being a little angry, so he shook his head: "Old Lin, you are wrong. Our navy didn't bet all our treasures on the Su-27. We still have new projects. Guess what?" You can’t even guess it, so if you say it, you will be shocked.”

   "Guess? What else is there to guess? The 611 Institute has thoroughly researched the technology of the Yak-141. Now we have introduced a full set of R-79. Do you want to get a vertical take-off and landing fighter?"

   This is not a secret. After all, 611 is developing the No. 10 Project for the Air Force, which is also the most important project of the Air Force. Mr. Lin often goes to check on the progress, so of course he knows what the 611 is doing with all the rags that are turned over all day.

   After finishing speaking, Elder Lin glanced at Wu Shengli again: "How about it, am I right?"

  Wu Shengli didn't speak, and picked up the wine glass to drink.

"Mr. Lin, the Air Force can't favor one over the other. Although the Su-27 looks good, it was designed by Lao Maozi after all. We have to thoroughly understand and modify it. There is still a long way to go. If there is a new project in the 611 Institute, it will be developed by ourselves. The technology is all its own, and the Air Force must insist on continuing this project."

  Veteran Lin looked at Wu Shengli: "Old Wu, you must have said something to this kid, right?"

   "Of course I don't say what I shouldn't say. It's not that I don't understand the confidentiality rules, but Taozi is smart. It's normal to guess something based on clues."

Mr. Lin nodded: "With Taozi's contribution to our air force, you can still get access to these secrets, but once you get in touch, you have to ensure that you don't leak them. The more you know, the more dangerous you are. Therefore, you have never given Tao any information before. I have applied for this qualification, but now it is quite troublesome. We are wondering if we can combine the project that 611 is developing with this vertical take-off and landing fighter project.”

   "No!" Qin Tao became anxious all of a sudden, and only when he said this did he feel something was wrong. The other two people looked at Qin Tao with surprised eyes.

  Why are you reacting so loudly?

Of course, Qin Tao was in a hurry. He knew that the J-10 was under the pressure of the Su-27 and was in a difficult labor situation. The 611 Institute was having a difficult time. The most important thing now was to build the prototype and start the test flight. Go down slowly and eventually mature.

   At this time, if they are required to modify the design and incorporate the Jacques-141 into it, that would be nonsense. If this continues, the J-10 will definitely be finished.

  J-10 is gone, how did the black ribbon come out? Qin Tao can't be a sinner of history! (Readers won't spare him either.)

  Qin Tao immediately objected.

   However, this movement is a bit loud.

"Well, although I don't know what project the 611 Institute is developing, I can feel that this project is very important to the 611 Institute. Mr. Song would rather sell noodles than save money for the project. Although I don't know about this project How far it has progressed, but there is no doubt that it is very important to them. If the Air Force changes the design indicators at this time, it means reinventing the wheel. I don’t want to be a sinner, after all, I have to see Mr. Song in the future .”

  Old Lin nodded: "Yes, you are right. It cannot be changed."

  Mr. Lin knew that what Qin Tao said was correct. If he puts forward new requirements for the current project, it might really be ruined.

   "Then what are your navy's ideas? Are you going to use your meager funds to get this project off?"

"Of course, our navy has to do it ourselves, and we need to support the stall first." After Wu Shengli finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Tao: "You don't need to worry about our problems. We need technology and funds. I have a good son-in-law?"

  Although Qin Tao's proposal has not been approved, but in Mr. Lin's place, cowhide must be blown.

  Qin Tao is Wu Shengli's greatest pride.

  Sitting there, Qin Tao felt a little bit emotional. Everyone has vanity, and alcoholics have it even more. After a few mouthfuls of cat urine, the bank would dare to rob it.
