Dominate South Asia

"Okay, we in Pakistan are willing to continue investing in improving this training aircraft." Mhammad said.

The current K-8 still uses the hydraulic operating system of the second-generation machine, and Huaxia's current fly-by-wire operation has matured and can be easily changed to fly-by-wire operation. At the same time, by inputting different performance data, it can imitate various This kind of aircraft performance will be the job of higher education aircraft in later generations.

Seeing Mhammad's excitement, Shi Ping was even more happy and said: "We have one last idea, which is to reverse engineer the TFE731 engine."

Now, China's training aircraft lacks suitable power. In later generations, although the United States exported this engine, it did not allow the Chinese military to use it for its own use. As a result, China could only choose other engines. Due to the gap in power performance, As a result, the models for self-use are worse than those for export. Pakistan’s aerobatic demonstration team uses K-8 trainer aircraft, while China’s domestic Bayi Aerobatic Demonstration Team also considered K-8, but due to the limited engine thrust , insufficient performance, and finally gave up.

In later generations, China reverse-engineered the AI-222-25 turbofan engine of the Ukrainian Progressive Mechanical Design Bureau and named it the Turbofan-11. However, now, Nanchang Aviation Industry Company has not come into contact with this engine. They are interested in the American TFE731 Very happy with the engine and hope to reverse engineer this engine.

However, this requires the support of Pakistan, which requires the provision of a finished engine for disassembly and mapping, and the technical support of Pakistan's aviation industry. After all, the F110 engine produced by Pakistan is now a world-class engine. The domestic Spey engine is one generation behind the F110.

Moreover, the American engine. It has patent rights. Once the Americans find out that their engine has been copied, they will definitely cause trouble for Nanchang Airlines and Pakistan. Therefore, if you want to survey and map now, you must reach an agreement with Pakistan.

"Okay." Mhammad said: "We fully support it. The engine is the heart of the aircraft. Without a good engine, there will be no good aircraft. We can cooperate in surveying and mapping. When the time comes, we can produce it ourselves, and there will be no need to import American ones." If you have an engine, you don’t have to worry about the lack of an engine in subsequent models. Pilots are the pride of heaven. The training aircraft is their ladder to the sky, and we must make this ladder good. Moreover, with the development of the times, we also need an updated training aircraft, which is to adopt first-class international level wings. It is a new advanced training attack aircraft that integrates advanced three-axis four-degree digital telex and B data bus technology.”

Hamad fully affirmed Nanchang Airlines' existing aircraft models, and. Plans for follow-up models were also proposed. This kind of training aircraft is still blank in China, but it has a broader market in the world. Professional words popped out of Mhamad's mouth one after another, and everyone's eyes were filled with excitement. Surprised.

"President Hamad, thank you very much for your support. They all say that you are a very special president. In terms of specific technologies, you are even better than our professional technical personnel. Today's meeting with you has made us happy." In terms of vision, you are not only a fighting hero, a wise politician, but also an excellent technical expert," Shi Ping said. If it were the past. He would never dare to speak in front of national leaders, but the approachable Mhamad was younger than they imagined. They all sincerely admired Mhamad. and. This is a big backer of Nanchang Airlines. In addition to the current K-8, there are also new models!

Mhamad secretly laughed in his heart. In fact, this kind of training aircraft is really a new thing. In later generations, only the T-50, "Mark" and Yak-130 advanced training aircraft can rival it, and these training aircraft have not yet appeared. Woolen cloth.

Due to the advanced technology, the cost of this kind of trainer aircraft is also high. Therefore, if it only undertakes the task of coaching, it would be too simple. These aircraft have a high bomb load, so they can also be used as ground attack aircraft. It can carry a maximum of about three tons of ammunition, which is already more than the dedicated Strong Five.

Mhamad's trip to Nanchang is over. The next destination is the capital of China. Mhamad visits China almost every year. It has become a routine. In China, Mhamad will also visit many places. .

After arriving in the capital, Mhammad had friendly exchanges with the leaders of China. Now, the cooperation between Pakistan and China is very in-depth. It can be said that it is almost a strategic alliance.

"The railway from Pakistan to China has now been fully connected." Mhamad said: "We are very pleased to see that your Qinghai-Tibet Railway has also been planned. When the railway is connected, the connection between us will More smooth.”

If you want to be rich, you must first build roads. During his first visit to China, Mhamad decided to build railways. Now, Pakistan’s domestic railways have been built to the border with China. Although the roads along the way are dangerous and mudslides are often encountered, Similar situation, however, this railway has greatly strengthened the economic exchanges between the two sides.

However, China did not build the Qinghai-Tibet Railway until the 21st century. Now, due to closer and closer cooperation with Pakistan, the construction of the railway has been put on the agenda.

Mr. Deng looked at Muhammad, a young man with more vitality. Under his leadership, Pakistan's development is also booming. If China had not implemented reform and opening up, Pakistan's comprehensive national strength would have surpassed China.

"Yes, we will build this railway as soon as possible, but it is not easy to build the plateau section." Mr. Deng said.

"In addition to building railways, we should also consider building an oil pipeline now." Muhammad said: "As your country's economy develops more and more, the demand for oil will increase. Your country has become an oil importer this year. Now, the world's oil export destinations are mainly in the Middle East. If your country transports by sea, the journey is long and it is easy to have accidents in the middle of the way."

Accidents in the middle of the way! This sentence is the most important. Maritime transportation will be subject to many restrictions. China now does not have a strong navy and cannot protect its maritime rights and interests. When the Iran-Iraq ship attack war was so fierce, China could only express verbal condemnation.

China's economy is developing very fast, and economic development is inseparable from energy. Importing oil from the Middle East through Malacca is a long journey. If it is imported from Pakistan through the inland and using an oil pipeline, the transportation cost will be greatly reduced.

However, the construction of an oil pipeline is very expensive. At present, China does not import enough oil. Is it necessary to build an oil pipeline in a big way?

"Oil pipeline?" Deng Gong asked.

"Yes, it is an oil pipeline. Although you are not yet aware of the shortage of oil, in a few years, your dependence on oil will definitely increase greatly. Now we are preparing for a rainy day. While building the railway, we will also build an oil pipeline along the line. In this way, the oil from the Middle East can be unloaded directly at our port and then go to your country through the pipeline. At the same time, it can also be imported from Iran, all by land." Muhammad said.

In fact, this does not have much impact on Pakistan. Muhammad is mainly for China's strategic security considerations. In the future, there are too many wars caused by oil.

Oil security is related to China's strategic security.

"Yes, if we can go by land, that would be great." Deng Gong said. Muhammad's vision was far-sighted, and Deng Gong could also see the future. China would become more and more dependent on external oil resources, but...

The country has too many places to spend money. If we start building such an oil pipeline now, we will invest a huge amount of money, but we can't see the benefits for the time being. I'm afraid it's not necessary to build it immediately.

Moreover, after the railway is built, oil tankers can be transported by rail, and crude oil can also be transported.

"We are afraid that we don't have enough funds." Deng Gong said: "It is very difficult to construct in the plateau area."

No funds! China has not yet learned how to operate world capital, especially how to earn enough profits from world capital speculation, and does not have the ability to predict the future like Muhammad.

When Muhammad heard what Deng said, he suddenly had an idea and said, "If you can get enough foreign investment, and jointly build this oil pipeline, then can you accept it? For example, foreign investment will invest half, and you will invest half, and after it is completed, the profits will be divided equally between the two parties."

Oil security is related to national security. China's oil is controlled by state-owned monopoly capital, and no one else is allowed to interfere. Therefore, Muhammad just suddenly proposed this.

Mhammad certainly knew how great the oil demand of China in the future was, even surpassing the United States and Japan, becoming the world's largest oil importer.

All this oil was transported by tankers, which was very expensive. If it was changed to an oil pipeline, it would save a lot of money. Therefore, the leaders of China in the future realized this problem and began to demonstrate the plan of the Belt and Road, including the oil pipeline.

"Foreign investment? President Muhammad, do you mean Pakistan's capital?" Deng asked.

If it was other countries, such as Western countries, Mr. Deng would never consider it. However, if it was Pakistan, then it could be discussed. After all, Pakistan is now cooperating with China in various aspects, including the most secret military industry departments. Even strategic weapons such as nuclear submarines, China will export technology to Pakistan. (To be continued ~^~)
