"Whew...... I didn't expect that I, a rookie, would start teaching others how to fly. ”

After thinking about it briefly, Zhou Hai exhaled a breath of turbidity, and thoughts flooded his mind: "Today, September 2nd, there are 28 days left before the National Day, and the task is four months, and it seems that this year is only abroad for the New Year." ”

Twenty-eight days later, coinciding with the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, he will embark on a freighter bound for South America to experience his first trip abroad.

After the end of the mission, it was the beginning of February, and I could only spend the New Year in Argentina.

"Drop!"

At this time, a crisp prompt sound of a file was heard from the tactical tablet.

"It's finally here, let's see how these two export J-10s are."

Zhou Hai gathered his scattered thoughts, picked up the tactical tablet, and after unlocking his fingerprint, he clicked to accept the unread first-level confidential document sent by Lin Jian, and carefully read the text information recorded in it.

FC-20X, codenamed 'Qingjiao', China's independent research and development of the third generation of semi-J-10C multi-purpose fighter weakened version, with an export license, the unit price of 45 million US dollars, at the special request of the Albanian Air Force, after consultation, upgrade the avionics cockpit, install a universal weapon data link, airborne weapon module, a new type of friend or foe identifier system.

The export version of the "Red Cat" active phased array radar, photoelectric sight, fly-by-wire control system, DSI air intake, S-10A "Taihang" turbofan engine, the aerodynamic layout has not changed, and the comprehensive performance is weaker than that of the J-10C and stronger than the J-10B and J-10A.

FC-20S, codenamed 'Blue Bird', is an enhanced version of the third-generation J-10S two-seat fighter independently developed by China, with an export license and a unit price of 40 million US dollars.

The Red Cat active phased array radar optimizes the aerodynamic layout to a certain extent, uses the basic air intake, replaces the S-10A 'Taihang' turbofan engine, upgrades the avionics cockpit, strengthens the ground attack capability and multi-purpose capability, and is stronger than the J-10S and J-10A in comprehensive performance evaluation.

"Equipped with export AESA radar and S-10A engine, the comprehensive performance of this export version of the FC-20X surpasses that of the J-10B, reaching the standard level of the third generation and a half, and strengthening multi-purpose and air supremacy, no wonder Argentina is willing to spend 45 million US dollars."

Zhou Hai looked through the basic airframe performance parameters of the two export fighters, the Qingjiao and the Jade Bird, and commented thoughtfully.

The unit price of the sale is 45 million US dollars, which is overall a great value for money and very cost-effective.

The comprehensive performance and function of the airborne active phased array radar are not covered, far surpassing the original third-generation Doppler radar and the unphased array radar, which can make the poor Argentine Air Force squeeze into the world's second-rate air force echelon in an instant, and the scientific and technological level has reached the world's advanced level.

After all, there are very few fighters in the air forces of various countries equipped with active phased array radars on board.

The S-10A developed by Dawn Aviation Development is mature, safe, stable and reliable, with sufficient daily consumption and parts supply.

After surviving those difficult years, Dawn Aviation is now among the world's third-largest producers of high-thrust aero engines, enjoying ripe and delicious fruits.

"The operation method of the frog and the blue bird is exactly the same, nothing has changed, after a short adaptation to the flight simulation and the actual aircraft, although it cannot reach the same proficiency as the J-10D, but there is no problem with operation and teaching."

Zhou Hai pondered silently, holding the tablet in his hand, clicking on the screen that emitted a soft light, carefully studying the detailed performance parameters of the frog one page at a time, and viewing the first-level confidential actual operation video images provided by Cheng Luoma.

Familiarize yourself with the flight simulator, and then fly solo on the actual aircraft to obtain the qualification to drive, which is a necessary channel for any new model modification training.

For the two export fighters of Qingjiao and Jade Bird, Zhou Hai is nothing, after all, the operation method of the J-10 series is the same, exactly the same.

"By the way, this time the Argentine Air Force has thrown itself into our arms, and I don't know what type of air-to-air missiles will be purchased."

Zhou Hai touched his chin, thinking about the history of world air warfare that he had read, and he was more curious.

Missiles, the most basic and core means of attack of fighters, launch a lethal strike from the physical level to eliminate them.

To a certain extent, the performance of missiles determines the level of combat effectiveness, and their importance is second only to that of fighter aircraft.

20 Frogs and 4 Frogs can transform the Argentine Air Force, which only uses propeller fighters, and squeeze from the world's fifth-rate air force to the second-rate air force, and return to the era of jet fighters.

But it doesn't work with fighter planes alone, it's purely for decoration.

Having an opportunity is the real king.

At that time, the Strange Snake 2, Magic 2, and Matra medium-range bombs belonged to the early standards of the third generation, and after a time interval of nearly forty years, they were in an old and useless state, completely unsuitable for the fierce background of modern warfare, and there were two words engraved on the door of the brain - backwardness.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten, and behind this wise saying, there is a bloody and cruel reality.

"Export version of the Thunderbolt-8B? This thing should be cleared, and there is actually an export version of the Thunderbolt-12, I didn't expect to sell this kind of thing, the fourth-generation medium-range bomb, the performance has been castrated to a certain extent, the maximum range is 65 kilometers, and the non-escape zone is 35 kilometers, which is OK. ”

Zhou Hai flipped through the first-level confidential electronic documents, carefully checked the data content in them, and soon, the airborne weapons sales catalog about the entire order was presented, clicked on the screen to browse the content, and after commenting, when the content of the third page was presented, the whole person's eyes suddenly widened: "Huh? Wait, what the hell is SD-13? It feels familiar,, isn't this a Thunderbolt-13?! Is the Argentine Air Force selling its ass? Actually got this missile! ”

What is Thunderbolt-13?

This thing, the internal secrecy level has reached the first level of secret!

A real AWACS killer!

The Thunderbolt-13 long-range air-to-air missile, designed by the Sixth Research Institute of China Aero-to-Air Missile, adopts a solid rocket ramjet engine, active radar + Beidou satellite + data link middle section of the composite guidance, with extremely strong anti-electromagnetic interference measures, specially designed to combat strategic early warning aircraft, comprehensive performance reached the level of four and a half generations.

It has a maximum range of 210 kilometers, an inescapable zone of 160 kilometers, and a maximum maneuverable overload of 40G.

In the third-level top-secret ammunition depot of his Pengcheng base, there are Thunderbolt-13 ultra-long-range air-to-air missiles, which are stored at a constant temperature, and the price of a single piece is as high as 15 million yuan.

To be honest, Zhou Hai didn't expect that the Argentine Air Force would be able to get a performance-castrated version of the Thunderbolt-13.

"Obediently, export SD-13, there must be an ulterior ** deal...... Well, forget it, this kind of thing is not mixed, I don't bother to think about it, or I am an instructor in peace. ”
