If it was the previous J-7, it would not have been able to fly so far, and now, in the fighter project for Jordan, the other party has made it clear that it wants to improve the payload capacity, and now it is engaged in foreign trade, of course, it must be according to the needs of the user, and what the user needs, he has to meet what he needs.

In this case, it also brought new vitality to the J-7, after increasing the external capacity, increasing the auxiliary fuel tank, which made it easier to fly during the transfer range.

And while the two were in flight, they received a new order from their superiors.

"Roger, transfer to the test flight institute." After Qin Feng heard the sound on the radio, he immediately replied, and at the same time, he began to spread out his chart, now, if you want to fly to the test flight yard, you have to turn around on the landmark in front.

Qin Feng turned his head, glanced at Brother Sun, and found that he didn't seem to be so happy, and even replied listlessly.

Originally, it was to go directly to Dalian, where the radar equipment was more advanced, but now, after coordination from the superiors, they first carried out test flights in other aspects, the project in Dalian, and finally flew again, just like that, Qin Feng and Brother Sun, piloting the plane, came to the test flight institute first.

The long test flight began again, and this time the test flight kept popping up a whole bunch of questions.

The howling of the radio station occurs from time to time, the flat display with high hopes, and the occasional ghosting, shaking, and interruption; radar altimeter, low altitude and high altitude alarm; Leakage of light from the camera gun card; Three-phase unbalance of static converter; The output of the atmospheric computer does not reach the warning range; British technical experts will only summarize once in more than a month, and during this time, it will be necessary for the technicians brought by Tu Lao to continuously analyze and summarize.

Although it was difficult, it was also beneficial, and in the continuous summary, everyone also found the problem, and at the same time, they also understood the system more deeply.

A few months passed quickly, at the beginning of 1983, the Ministry of Aviation held a meeting, Qin Feng was not qualified to participate, but it may be related to the introduction of the Phantom 2000, so Qin Feng was specially approved, and together with Tu Lao, rushed to the capital.

"We must be cautious when we introduce it to the outside world." At the meeting, General Zhang said earnestly: "Now, we are reviewing the introduction of the Mirage 2000, and we know that the Air Force urgently needs an advanced aircraft, but the price of this aircraft is too high, and we must be cautious." ”

Qin Feng also got a piece of information, and when he saw the price above, Qin Feng also felt a big head, this Frenchman, really dare to ask for a price!

Sixty million!

The F-16 fighter jet that the United States intends to export to its own side has worse performance because it is a castrated version, but the price is also very affordable, less than 20 million.

And the side has also inspected the Tornado fighter-bomber, and the price given by West Germany is 28 million, which is reasonable, and now, such an aircraft of the French actually drove such a high price.

Not only are the prices high, but also all the requirements for imports and the disagreement with the export of technology and production are almost all conditions that cannot be negotiated.

"Our aviation department, in the introduction, but made mistakes, three major things are the three Yanmar, the first is the introduction of Spey, the second is the introduction of Marconi avionics, the third is the dolphin helicopter, everyone must learn from these incidents."

Hearing General Zhang's words, Qin Feng immediately felt that his mind was flickering around, the Spey project cost a lot of money, and after the introduction, now those equipment are eating dirt, which can be said to be a lesson of failure.

As for the dolphin helicopter, this Qin Feng is not very clear, the fighter and the helicopter are two systems, but Qin Feng roughly understands that this platform is too small, the maximum take-off weight is only 4 tons, the weight of the aircraft itself is 2 tons, and the payload is only a few hundred kilograms, and the range is small and the load is small.

Now, after going abroad to inspect the Black Hawk, I found that this thing is chicken ribs.

In later generations, the same was true, the Navy used anti-submarine, and as a result, it had to buy Maozi's Ka-28 for emergency relief. Army Airlines buys hundreds of Mi-17s. Although Zhijiu has been changed by the devil to come out of many models, it can't avoid the defect of the small platform.

Qin Feng didn't know much about these two, but General Zhang criticized them by name, and if this project to introduce Marconi avionics was also a Yanmar, Qin Feng really couldn't figure it out.

Qin Feng looked at Tu Lao and found that Tu Lao's face had also become ugly.

Qin Feng is very young, and he doesn't see problems as deeply as Tu Lao.

At that time, the state actively asked for the introduction, which was a key project of the state, but later, the needs of the air force changed, and the all-weather demand outperformed the advanced avionics, so the air force did not want it.

The Air Force didn't want it, and the higher-level departments asked to withdraw the project, but Tu Lao, with enthusiasm, wanted to continue the project in order to avoid the waste of funds invested in advance.

It seems that the superiors are very dissatisfied that the contract has not been returned!

It's no wonder that the comrades who participated in this project later kept their distance from us and were not active, and everyone knew what the leader meant.

Tu Lao felt that the progress was not good, and now, this export-oriented fighter is in full swing under development, but this is the internal promotion of the Third Machine Department, and it will even be understood by the superiors as the private action of the Third Machine Department.

When this export aircraft successfully climbed to the top, if it didn't get it right, it would probably fall into the abyss and be crushed.

There are global failures: the introduction of technology is out of control, or not applicable or of poor quality, or suffers a big loss; The export modification can not be successful at one time, and there are major problems, or the performance does not meet the requirements of the contract or the progress is seriously delayed or the quality is too poor, causing the buyer to terminate the contract and claim compensation...

I am afraid that all this is not only a technical and economic issue, but may also become a political issue.

When Tu Lao thought of this, he knew that this was a difficult choice, could he give up because of this problem?

Of course not! There is no turning back from the bow, and now, this project has come to the present, only success, and it must not be given up! So much energy has been invested, not only for an export-oriented aircraft, but also to improve the electronic technology level of domestic military aircraft.

The realization of Pingxian is of great significance, since you have identified the direction, you can't retreat! He turned his head and saw Qin Feng's gaze, both of them were equally determined.

The superiors must have misunderstood this project, and we can seriously explain to the superiors that this is already an export project, which is related to the reputation of the country, and this project cannot be stopped!

As an old comrade, you must withstand this kind of test.
