Chapter 431 The disruptor in the international arms market
Of course, Lieutenant Colonel Bania, who was already returning home at this time, would not know that his plane had been defined as a "mysterious stealth aircraft" by two pilots who were unwilling to take responsibility. He just recalled the entire mission process just excitedly.
Although there was no chance of visual contact with the opponent, in any case, this could definitely be regarded as a big victory.
Since 1988, Bania has not carried out any serious actual combat missions for nearly ten years.
Especially after entering the 90s, as the conditions of the two main types of fighter jets deteriorated year by year, their time for airborne training began to decrease.
Otherwise, they would not go to China to extend the life of the aircraft and upgrade it.
You know, Baniya is not the only one who is biased against Chinese equipment because of the Iran-Iraq war.
Both the regular army and the Revolutionary Guards were initially more inclined to seek cooperation from the Russians.
As for why I went to China in the end...
Because Persia itself does not have much hard currency such as gold and US dollars at the moment, and it is obviously impossible for Moscow to accept such an outrageous request to pay with oil.
Fortunately, judging from the results, the upgrade plan provided by the Chinese is not bad.
Although this time can't be said to be a real "combat", it can at least be regarded as a meal replacement.
Naturally, there was no need to continue running with afterburner during the return process, so when this F4 with special sky blue paint landed on the runway of TFB1 base again, it was already close to noon that day.
The interception mission was successfully completed, which may or may not be a big deal. For the Persian Air Force, at least it was a chance to prove itself again after a trough that lasted for nearly ten years.
"I said Lao Yang, what are they celebrating?"
Han Linping was holding a dinner plate in his hand, which contained a bowl of fish soup, a chicken pilaf and a roast lamb shoulder.
This was his first time in Persia. Although he didn’t know much about the country before and couldn’t understand Persian, he could still tell that there seemed to be something different just by looking at the atmosphere and the rich variety of food in his hands. .
"Remember the F4EC we saw this morning?"
Yang Jin took Han Linping to the second floor terrace and found a seat to sit down:
"I heard just now that the aircraft carried out a successful interception mission. It was the first time in the entire TFB1 base in recent years, so it was natural to celebrate."
"The one we just upgraded?"
Han Linping, who had just taken a sip of soup, paused in mid-air.
"Yes, I heard it was another F4 that intercepted the Turks." Yang Jin said, opening a bottle of pomegranate juice and pouring a glass for himself and Han Linping opposite.
Although the Persian prohibition on alcohol is not strict at the implementation level, it is still impossible to openly provide alcoholic drinks on such official occasions, and juice is usually used instead.
Of course, as for whether anyone mixes wine with fruit juice to satisfy their cravings, that is a matter of benevolence and wisdom.
"I go?"
Han Linping was shocked when he heard the news and almost spilled the drink in his cup with his hands shaking.
After taking a sip, Yang Jin explained nonchalantly:
"The F4EC we upgraded is actually a J-4C that looks a lot like the F8. It uses some 1473 technology in terms of radar, and its performance is even better. Even if the Turks' F4E is upgraded, it will still be the best in the later stage. The level of F4J or F4S, except for the similar shell, there is about 20 years of generation difference, so it can definitely be easily suppressed."
Han Linping immediately waved his hand:
"That's not the point. Turkey is a NATO country. Although it is a peripheral country of NATO, if we can make good use of this opportunity, it will also be an opportunity for us to export equipment and make a comeback..."
The reputation of Chinese equipment almost fell to the bottom after the Iran-Iraq War, and this impact could not be completely eliminated until nearly ten years later.
Although for some cash-strapped countries like Persia or Laos, China’s air force equipment can already enable them to achieve combat effectiveness, but it is already the late 90s after all, and even if the MiG-21 is modified, it will be useless. It is impossible to get into the eyes of real wealthy donors.
If you want to occupy a place in the higher-end arms market, cost-effectiveness alone is obviously not enough.
The best way is of course to achieve a world-famous result like the Exocet missile in the Falklands War. However, such opportunities are rare, and in many cases, even if they are achieved, they cannot be made public, just like the shooting down of the rice missile at the beginning of the year. Like the Ge 25, it has no direct significance for arms sales promotion.
In this case, a "cold conflict" in which no shots were fired can also serve as good propaganda material.
Basically, neither side will make a big deal about this kind of border interception, but the weapons and equipment are not expected to be sold to the masses. As long as they can be recognized by the high-level officials of several nearby countries, it is enough.
The information gap here is quite large.
For example, after the Gulf War, although the reputation of Soviet-made equipment plummeted, France was actually the most negatively affected...
……
Compared with the air force equipment that currently requires hard work to find high-end breakthroughs, China Military Industry's situation in the army is still better.
National shooting range deep in the Badain Jaran Desert.
Professor Rui Xiaoting is taking several core members of his research group to conduct final preparations before equipment testing with the project team of Sichuan Aerospace Industry Corporation, which has also come from afar.
If Chang Haonan was also present, he should be very familiar with the rocket launcher parked in an open space not far away.
It was the Defender 2 that Rui Xiaoting came to him to complete design optimization less than two months ago.
虽然还用着铁马提供的卫士1同款加长型6*6轮式底盘,但上面的发射箱已经结结实实地换成了3*2的方形。
"Lao Zhang! How are the preparations for the experiment going?"
Rui Xiaoting closed the book in his hand, handed it to a graduate student next to him, then quickly came to the rocket launcher and asked loudly.
An engineer with half-white hair poked his head out of the operation room behind the cockpit:
"Don't worry, we are setting the elements according to the data given by the shooting range. It will be ready soon!"
Zhang Hongyin, designer of the Guardian series rocket launchers.
Under normal circumstances, the testing of conventional artillery weapons and equipment will be arranged at the Huayin Weapons Testing Center near Haojing, but the weapons they want to test this time are somewhat special.
After leaving the capital and returning to Jinling, Rui Xiaoting used the method previously provided by Chang Haonan to optimize the directional tube and rocket, further increasing the aspect ratio and optimizing the bullet shape. Combined with the newly developed new propellant, the weapon system The ultimate range has been directly increased from the original plan of about 240km to about 350km.
The Huayin Center is less than 150km away from Haojing City, so naturally there is no way to test it there.
You know, the Dongfeng 11 short-range ballistic missile that entered military service only five years ago has a range of about this level.
Of course, the warhead charge of rockets is only about one-tenth to one-twentieth of that of serious ballistic missiles, and its ability to kill point targets is not at the same level at all. It does not mean that the range on paper can replace it.
For the People's Liberation Army, which already has ballistic missiles in its equipment sequence, the main goal of future long-range rocket launchers is still the pursuit of rapid response and area-killing capabilities. Therefore, in the equipment selection conducted a few months ago, Sichuan Aerospace Industry Corporation's The plan was ultimately defeated by Norinco's competitor based on the 9K58 Tornado design.
Although the latter has a shorter range, its accuracy, firepower density and reaction speed are faster, and it ultimately gained the favor of the equipment system.
However, in the export market, for countries that do not have ballistic missiles on hand, range is everything.
Therefore, since the launch of the first model of the Defender series, it has won the favor of many countries, especially countries in urgent need of long-range deterrent weapons.
As for Defender 2, there are already many interested buyers in the design stage.
For example, there are several people standing not far behind Rui Xiaoting at this moment.
