Chapter 283: The Pitfall of the Falcon Early Warning Aircraft(1/2)

In general, national arms sales distinguish between personal use and export.

In this regard, the most thorough person is Lao Maozi. In order to avoid exporting weapons from leaking parameters for personal use, the exported weapons are all monkey versions, the T-72 for personal use. The turret is filled with quartz balls when it is poured. When it comes to the export version,

It's just sand. As a result, in the wars in the oil areas in the past few years, all reputations were ruined.

British and American exporters will wait and see what customers order, and some will just modify the parameters of the electronic system and sell it. However, in many cases, they will also cheat customers. For example, it is a tank, and when you see the T-72 flying turret,

The M1 tank is so powerful that some countries have purchased advanced Western tanks such as the M1 or Leopard 2. As a result, on the battlefield, the flying turret is still a flying turret. It is impossible to have the same flying turret as the one used by others.

of.

However, generally speaking, those for personal use are higher quality than those for export.

However, domestic exceptions are made.

In many weapon systems, exported ones perform better than domestic ones.

Take the J-7 fighter as an example. Head-up displays, Marconi radars, etc. are all exported aircraft equipment first. After a while, the Air Force thinks it’s good, okay, let’s order a batch of them too!

The same goes for tanks. The 105mm tank gun with an extended barrel is given priority to be supplied to foreign countries.

Why?

Poor.

The performance indicators of advanced equipment seem to be very good, but I don’t know how reliable it is! If you equip it yourself, what if it becomes unreliable? So, let the customer use it first, and accumulate some experience during use to see the effect.

, and only use it for yourself after there is no problem at all.

As for leaking secrets? Anyway, our technology is not very good at all. It is far from the world’s advanced level! Let’s just leak secrets.

Therefore, according to Qin Tao's speculation, there should not be any big problems in exporting an anti-ship missile production line or something like that. Although we boast about China's Flying Fish and the like, in fact, its performance is still far from the world's advanced level.

As for the distance, especially sunburn and the like, even P-700 and the like, Qin Tao got them all.

The advanced anti-ship missiles that are currently kept secret should be supersonic anti-ship missiles that are under pre-development. This kind of subsonic Chinese Exocet can be sold as long as it is sold, and there is nothing to worry about.

"I heard that the Third Institute has installed turbojet engines on anti-ship missiles, and the range has exceeded 100 kilometers. Do you want to sell this missile?"

Sure enough, it is exactly what Qin Tao thought!

If you have to choose, it must be a new model!

How is the performance of the new model? Let the customer help you test it!

"Taozi, regarding the sale of the 022 missile boat and related production lines, we need to study it carefully and then submit it to the superior leaders for approval." Wu Shengli said: "However, the matter of vertical take-off and landing fighter jets can be done according to your

"The idea is to carry out preliminary research first. In a few days, Lao Maozi's group of personnel will be sent. You can take them to the 611 Institute, arrange work for them first, and start it according to the plan you mentioned." Wu Shengli

He spoke.

These old fools were deceived into working on vertical take-off and landing fighter jets, so now we can't let them down. They have to start working on it and set up the business first, even if it's just a project pre-research.

Qin Tao nodded, and then talked about the last thing.

"I also obtained a large amount of technical information related to Yak-44 from Lao Maozi."

"Yak-44?" Everyone present was shocked.

As naval officers, of course they know what the Yak-44 is.

"Didn't Lao Maozi give up on this model long ago?"

"Yeah, I thought that was the case, and then I thought it was an old man who was making things up. Finally, I finally know the story behind this model. It's really touching. This story is very long. Do you listen?"

Everyone nodded.

After listening to it, everyone was very emotional, what a twists and turns!

"This airframe is very similar to the American E-2 early warning aircraft. However, the performance of Lao Maozi's electronic equipment is beyond praise. Therefore, what we got back is just a shell. If the Navy wants to use it,

We have to put it into our electronic equipment in the future." Qin Tao said: "By the way, these also cost a lot of money, and the Navy has to find a way to reimburse me."

"Yes, we have to install our own electronic equipment, but we currently don't have the relevant technology!" Wu Shengli said with emotion: "This kind of early warning aircraft technology is the most high-end. The Air Force does not have an early warning aircraft yet. Our navy's scientific research

Funds are tight and we can’t invest in this kind of project yet.”

The early warning aircraft is a multiplier of air combat power. It moves the radar into the sky so that the aircraft that penetrate the defense at ultra-low altitude can't hide. It is simply an eye in the sky. However, at the same time, the radar echo on the ground will cause great trouble to the aircraft.

, Therefore, the technical difficulty of early warning aircraft is very high, and there are only a few countries in the world that can build early warning aircraft.

The British once built a Hunter early warning aircraft on the platform of the Hunter anti-submarine aircraft, but due to the technical difficulty, they finally gave up and directly purchased the American ready-made E-3 early warning aircraft.

This kind of aircraft is the most urgent need of the Air Force. Now that the Air Force already has Su-27 fighters, it also urgently needs an air platform like an early warning aircraft. Once they develop it, the relevant technology can be modified and the Navy can use it ready-made. It's really delicious.

.

but…

"I heard that the Air Force has gone to Damao to inspect their A-50 early warning aircraft, but they are not satisfied with the performance of their electronic equipment. It is said that they recently went to the Kingdom of David."

Qin Tao frowned.

Qin Tao's report work has been completed, and it's time to get off work. Qin Tao and Wu Shengli were walking on the way home together. The cold wind blew, like a knife, cutting Qin Tao's face.

into Qin Tao's heart.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Taozi, are you worried?"

Wu Shengli had long noticed that Qin Tao was uneasy, but he didn't know why, and now he couldn't help but ask.

"Dad, are you free? How about we go visit Mr. Lin?" Qin Tao finally made up his mind.

Wu Shengli hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, there must be Maotai over Lao Lin's side. Come on, let's go to his place for a drink!"

Lin's hometown.

"A rare visitor!" Mr. Lin looked at Qin Tao: "Mr. Qin, who is busy with everything, when will you have time to come and sit here?"

"Mr. Lin, I heard that you have Maotai here, so I came over for a drink."

"Old Lin, do you only welcome my son-in-law? It seems that I am redundant?"

"That's right, a few days ago, we were drinking together. You were going to drink up all my Moutai. Today, you should talk less. Mr. Qin and I will chat more."

Old friends met, laughed and laughed, sat together, ate a few bites of food, drank a few sips of wine, and finally got down to business.

"Mr. Qin went to Lao Maozi this time and successfully completed the task. Our Air Force's next-generation aircraft will have a heart." Mr. Lin said: "This Lockheed company is really awesome and specially helps us.

If it weren't for their amazing assist, Lao Maozi probably wouldn't be so happy."

Qin Tao smiled. Although the Tumansky Design Bureau has declined, in Lao Maozi's eyes, the R-79 engine is really a good thing, and it is not so easy to reach an agreement with our side.

First there was a car accident, then a car bomb. These things angered the strong feelings in Lao Maozi's heart, so the agreement was reached.

Not easy!

Wu Shengli glanced at his son-in-law, he just did certain things, but he could never say them out loud.

"This time, taking advantage of the opportunity, we also got the Yak-44 shell back." Qin Tao said: "Then I heard that the Air Force is also going out with all its strength to prepare to obtain advanced early warning aircraft?"

"Yes, we went to the David Country for an inspection. They are developing a Falcon early warning aircraft. This is a brand-new early warning aircraft that uses active phased array radar technology." Mr. Lin didn't have any reservations.

The cooperation with Weiguo has not yet begun, and it is not considered a leak.

There are only a few countries in the world that can develop early warning aircraft, and the Kingdom of David is one of them. Although it is a small country in terms of land area, its military research and development capabilities are really not impressive.

The American early warning aircraft is nothing more than a huge flat-plate slot radar antenna. The Davids began to use advanced active phased array radar technology to build early warning aircraft!

"Speaking of which, they are really creative. The early warning aircraft we usually see are all supported by a big plate. What about the David? Antenna arrays are arranged on both sides of the fuselage, and a big nose is added to the nose.

It can avoid having too much impact on the aerodynamic layout, which is really an idea.”

"Yes, this is the advantage of active phased array radar technology. The t/r component can be installed at any location. When the technology develops in the future, it can be directly implanted into the skin. But now, David

When people do this, the back of their butt is a complete blind spot!"

When Qin Tao said this, Mr. Lin also sighed with emotion: "Yes, the tail of the aircraft is indeed a blind spot. There is no way to make a big ass there like the Hunter Aircraft. Our Air Force plans to use those IL

-76 came to be modified, and the rear compartment door is even more unusable."

Sure enough, as Qin Tao guessed, the Air Force had no other platform but the IL-76. The transport aircraft Qin Tao got last time finally came in handy.

"Our initial idea is to modify it like the A-50 early warning aircraft with a large plate on the back." Mr. Lin said: "We will send the aircraft platform to the David people and let them install it for us.

Early warning radar, so there are no blind spots, even if it costs hundreds of millions, the money will still have to be spent, and the Air Force cannot live without early warning aircraft."

"Mr. Lin, I think this plan is impossible to succeed." Qin Tao said: "Early warning aircraft are strategic weapons and equipment."

At this time, Mr. Lin was eating a piece of braised pork. His chewing mouth suddenly stopped, and the juice of the braised pork flowed out from the corner of his mouth. He hesitated for two seconds, then wiped it with the back of his hand, and then quickly

Swallowed the braised pork into his stomach.

"You mean, we will encounter huge resistance?" Mr. Lin asked.

"Yes, many people will not see that we have obtained a big killer weapon like an early warning aircraft. They will use various means to prevent it. We can only develop key equipment such as early warning aircraft on our own, and we cannot rely on others." Qin

Tao said: "Old Maozi will not be afraid of other people's pressure, but David people cannot."

Now Qin Tao is already a prophet in the eyes of many people. Everything he said will definitely come true. At this time, Mr. Lin had to think seriously.

Early warning aircraft are indeed at the strategic level. While our own side is pursuing early warning aircraft, many people do not want their own side to possess such a weapon.

"So, what should we do?" Mr. Lin asked.
