Dominate South Asia

Chapter 262: Cafeteria Incident

This fighter under development is not as powerful as the Tomcat fighter equipped by Pakistan. Moreover, with the good relationship between Pakistan and the Republic, there is no need to worry about leaks. It will also promote our cooperation. The Air Force naturally welcomes such cooperation.

Moreover, Wang Hai has more ideas. The last exercise exposed many weak links of our Air Force. We can communicate more with the Pakistani Air Force in the future. Although our equipment is at a disadvantage, Wang Hai believes that we can find a way to defeat the strong with the weak.

Advanced tactics and constant exchanges are of great help to the growth of our Air Force.

"We can also provide some spoils for joint research." Muhammad said.

Spoils? Everyone looked at Muhammad. This spoils must be from the Soviet Union. What good things will it be?

"We found a high-performance close-range combat missile for the MiG-29 and a complete flight helmet. The Soviets' close-range combat has entered the era of helmet aiming. With this large off-axis combat missile, we have a hard time in close-range combat." Muhammad said.

Of course there are fighter wreckage! Pakistan found these weapons in their entirety in the Kashmir Valley, but did not provide them to the Americans. After all, Muhammad knew that if the Americans got these things, they might use them to threaten Pakistan in the future.

Cooperation with China is the best choice for Pakistan. Take these things and let Chinese scientific researchers study, imitate them, and modify them on their own fighters. At that time, the air combat capability of their own fighters will be further improved!

"This is great!" Song Wencong said. All sub-projects of the development of new fighters are blank. Those PL-5 missiles are still from the 1960s, which is too backward.

In later times, the advanced combat missiles equipped by the Air Force are still the PL-8, which is improved from Israel's Python 3. It was already in the 1990s.

"Helmet aiming?" Bai Xue asked curiously, "How to aim with a helmet?"

"There is a aiming system on the helmet, which is linked to the fire control system. When the pilot's head turns, the sight turns with it, and the missile's seeker also turns synchronously. When the eyes look at the target, the missile's seeker also follows the target. Wherever the eyes are, the missile can aim there." Muhammad said, "In this way, you can win a few tenths of a second in the fierce air battle."

"President Muhammad, you didn't go to the Soviet fighter plane in person. How do you know this?" Bai Xue asked.

Hearing Bai Xue's question, Tu Jida couldn't help but look at Bai Xue with a serious look. His grandson was really fearless. In front of so many people, he dared to ask the president of others. She was not qualified to attend this level of meeting at all. She was called here just to inquire about the progress of the radar.

Muhammad couldn't help but admire in his heart, this Bai Xue, her eyes are sharp, she saw the problem at a glance, how did he know? Later generations have long deciphered it, the Republic introduced the Su-27 fighter, and the principle is naturally known.

"This is our air force fighter, exchanged for blood." Muhammad said: "When we fought with the Soviets' fighters. We were shot down several times, and then we discovered the principle of this missile."

Fighting will make the country's army stronger! At the same time, fighting also means bloodshed and sacrifice. Hearing Muhammad say this, everyone was silent. The strength of the Pakistani Air Force was forged in countless battles with the Soviets and Indians. When Pakistan was still at a loss for a MiG-25 fighter that invaded India, it had already beaten the Indian Air Force to the ground.

It's time to eat.

"Chairman, we have booked a hotel in Chengdu." The entourage said.

"Mr. Deng, let's eat here." Muhammad said, "No need to be so polite, let's eat with the researchers and have some exchanges."

Mr. Deng said happily, "Okay, let's see how our researchers are eating."

Tu Jida frowned and wanted to stop them, but he could only follow the team and walk towards the canteen.

There are two canteens in 611. The small canteen is only open on special occasions. Sometimes, it is also used as a place for banquets, such as New Year celebrations, etc., and usually only the big canteen provides meals.

"Chairman, this is the small canteen, let's go here." Tu Jida said.

"No, let's eat with everyone." Deng Gong said, "Let's go to the cafeteria."

When the group entered the cafeteria with great interest, some researchers who were eating stood up excitedly: "Hello, Chairman!"

In their hands, they held cornmeal steamed bread, and underneath was a bowl of millet porridge and a few pickles...

When they found that the Chairman was looking at the food in their hands, they couldn't help but hide behind.

Dark clouds gradually covered Deng Gong's face. He continued to walk to the window of the cafeteria and saw only a bowl of porridge, a bowl of steamed bread, and pickles.

"What's going on?" Deng Gong asked, "Our researchers work hard day and night and fight for our military industry. Do they eat these things?"

If compared with previous years, it would be good to have something to eat, but the situation has gradually improved in recent years, so at least there should be some dishes to go with it, right?

Tu Jida's face flushed, his lips trembled a few times, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.

"Report to the chairman, this is all our own will." Bai Xue said: "The funding from the superiors is limited. We want to develop new radars and new projects, but we are seriously short of funds. Although we have raised funds ourselves, we have used them to purchase Western equipment and raw materials. Therefore, in order to smoothly develop our projects, we spontaneously save money. When we went to the countryside, we couldn't even eat steamed bread, which was already very good."

Mhammad was also shocked. Just developing radars requires huge costs. Many circuit components need to be purchased from the West. They also need computer equipment. In the case of limited national funding and limited imported funds, they actually live frugally for their own careers.

No wonder Bai Xue's face is so ugly, it turns out that she has long-term malnutrition!

"Bai Xue, stop talking." Tu Jida said, "Chairman, I approved this matter. If you want to punish me, punish me."

"Our scientific researchers can work hard for our advanced fighters in such an environment." Deng Gong said, "The central government still owes you too much. The state will allocate a part of the special funds to support our new model fighters. We can't save on meals anymore. We must have meat every two days at least."

After that, Deng Gong sat down, picked up a steamed bread, took a bite, and kept chewing.

This is a simple and meaningful meal, just like a meeting to recall the bitterness and sweetness. Deng Gong's thoughts seemed to go back to the days of war, when steamed bread was already a good thing.

Lilith also picked up a piece of steamed bread, put it in her mouth, chewed it, and there was a sweet taste. She had never eaten this thing before. While eating, Lilith said to Muhammad, "This is so delicious!"

Delicious? Just like the wealthy people in later generations, who are used to eating big fish and meat, they feel that coarse grains are delicious when they eat them occasionally, but if they eat them every day, they will not be very delicious.

During this trip to Chengfei, Muhammad has achieved his goal, making the top leaders of the Republic pay more attention to the development of new fighters and let this fighter take off as soon as possible. Muhammad has done his best and hopes that the tragic peace model project in the previous life will disappear.

The researchers who were eating have slowly dispersed, leaving only the inspection team.

Just after Deng Gong finished eating a steamed bread, Tu Jida finally couldn't hold it in and said: "Chairman, in addition to our new fighter project, we Chengfei have another idea."

"Oh?" Deng Gong asked: "What idea?"

"We have exchanged a Tomcat that can no longer fly from Iran. We want to reverse map and imitate a heavy air superiority fighter of our own." Tu Jida said.

"Why do you all like this fighter?" Mr. Deng smiled and said, "We came from Xi'an Aircraft Corporation, and Chen Yijian also mentioned to me that he wanted to copy this fighter and turn it into a fighter-bomber."

Mhammad's mind suddenly moved.

When he was at Xi'an Aircraft Corporation, Chen Yijian brought it up, but Muhammad had not given it much thought. Now, Chengfei has also brought it up.

Chengfei already has a new Project No. 10 and does not put too much energy on reverse mapping, while Xi'an Aircraft Corporation also has the JH-7 project. However, compared with the improved version of the Tomcat, the JH-7 is extremely backward.

If the two design institutes work together, with Xi'an Aircraft Corporation as the main body and Chengfei Corporation as the auxiliary, they may be able to successfully copy this fighter in five to ten years.

Tu Jida looked helpless: "Before visiting the Pakistani Air Force, our knowledge was still very superficial. The powerful combat capability of the Tomcat fighter made us realize the performance of advanced fighters. Our country has a vast territory. It is not enough to have only a single-engine light fighter. We must have a heavy air superiority fighter."

"Do you have enough energy to develop two models at once?" Deng Gong asked.

Deng Gong asked this, which was naturally intentional, and Tu Jida was happy.

Without waiting for Tu Jida to reply, the Minister of the Third Machine Department said: "Chairman, Chengfei wants to develop a new fighter model, but I am afraid it is not strong enough. If it wants to copy, it is better to hand it over to Shenfei. Shenfei is the fist of our aviation industry and can definitely copy it." (To be continued ~^~)
