Since both adopt a duck-type aerodynamic layout, there are many similarities in the aerodynamic aspects of the J-10 and Phantom 4000. The experience accumulated in the development of the J-10 can be reverse engineering, and the technical key of the Phantom 4000 can be fully understood, and then, on this basis, improvements are made.

The Phantom 4000 is produced in Iraq, but many of its components still need to be imported, and some of them are definitely not decrypted by Dassault. For example, the source code of the flight control system and fire control system is only opened, allowing Iraq to modify other missiles by itself. These are the key technologies of a fighter jet.

When the No. 10 Project is completed, Iraqi technicians can easily use these technologies and use Phantom 4000. For example, they can optimize the flight control system, rewrite the source code of the flight control, and increase the static instability. For example, with the rapid development of science and technology, new airborne computers can be replaced with the original computer. When the Phantom 4000 is upgraded and prolonged in the mid-term, the French will leave it alone.

A lot of experience has been learned from a newly designed air combat fighter. These are something that Iraqi engineers who lack masters are undesirable. If Kusai now asks Iraq's own engineers to set a model and develop a self-developed fighter, it is tantamount to being too ambitious. Iraq lacks this ability, and after participating in Chengfei's project, it already has enough R&D capabilities.

By then, the Soviet Union may have collapsed and Iraq will absorb a large number of outstanding Soviet engineers. With the current team and Iraq's strong economic investment, it will no longer be impossible to develop Iraq's own fourth-generation fighter jets.

When the f22 stands out in the sky, when the United States cherishes its own fortune and uses the joint fighter f35 to deceive a large group of allies, but the f22 it uses does not export one, Iraq can proudly confront it with the sky!

Thinking of this, Kusai was a little nervous.

Aircraft design is a huge system engineering, materials, technology, metallurgy, optics, and electronics, involving all aspects, and it also has a good promoting effect on improving Iraq's overall scientific research level.

Therefore, in his heart, Kusai is very willing to participate in this project.

However, this project is currently a very confidential project in the Eastern powers. At the top, except for the specialized personnel in charge, only the deputy prime minister level knows it. Are they willing to share such a project with Iraq?

"We in Iraq are very willing, but I don't know if Chengfei is willing to share all the scientific research results with us. However, if you really want to develop a medium-sized fighter, the turbofan six engines and new avionics equipment we developed with you can use on new fighters," said Kusai.

In later generations, one of the major problems that restricted J-10 was the heart and engine problems. Now, the turbofan VI has been successfully developed and is developing an increased thrust-weight ratio, further increasing the thrust-weight ratio and improving the lifespan. This fighter is gradually maturing.

Seeing the other party pondering for a while, finally expressing his agreement to intervene in the research and development. Xiao Dangsheng knew that this fighter jet would definitely be developed soon with Iraqi funds.

Cheng Fei proposed that the model development was completed in 1988, the prototype was manufactured in 1990, and the first flight was completed in 1990, and the plan to be finalized in 1995 will definitely be completed on time, and even the development could be completed in advance!

After the visit to Kusai, Xiao Dangsheng began to send Kusai’s answer back to China, so that Director Song, the supervisor, knew that as long as the senior management agreed, the cooperation will be carried out smoothly.

However, just after Xiao Dangsheng left, Faruge, who was left behind, asked: "President Kusai, I don't oppose our investment in funds and participating in the development of this kind of fighter jet. However, do we need to equip this kind of fighter jet we jointly developed?"

Now, the Iraqi Air Force is equipped with a variety of fighter models, which is a nightmare for logistics. Therefore, Iraq is replacing old Soviet fighter jets with the new Phantom 4000 and F20 for sealing or friendly support or selling at low prices. In the future, Iraq will form the idea of ​​matching these two main fighter jets with high ground. Now, if Iraq participates in the development of such fighter jets, will Iraq be equipped by itself? This kind of fighter jet is different from the Super Seven. When the Super Seven is designed, it is aimed at the export market. This extremely confidential project in the East must be their main fighter jets in the next few decades and will not be able to export and earn foreign exchange.

The investment of large amounts of money is just a disciple to learn from, but it is still not in line with Iraq's style.

If Iraq is equipped, will it overlap with the existing models?

Kusai looked at the chief engineer of Iraq's F20 fighter jet. His thinking had already stood at a new level, for the overall interests of Iraq and the national interests of Iraq!

"Yes, it will conflict with our existing ones, but our existing F20 fighter jets are also flawed," said Kusai.

When the f20 was just equipped with troops, it solved Iraq's urgent need, had strong medium-range air combat capabilities, and could launch sparrow missiles. Iraq used it as the main air-control fighter jet to compete with the Iranian Air Force for air supremacy.

But now, with the addition of Phantom 4000, F20 has more functions to carry out precise ground strikes. At this time, the disadvantages of F20 have also emerged. The platform of the fighter jet changed from F5 is still too small and the bomb load capacity is limited. At this time, Iraq's combat mission has changed. What Iraq needs to face is Israel, Turkey, and Western countries mainly facing the United States, which need to protect the sky of the entire Middle East, and have strong competition for air supremacy and ground bombing capabilities.

The J-10 has good close combat capabilities and middle-range capabilities, especially the third-generation fighter jet emphasizes the instantaneous directional ability of the nose, and does not lose the disadvantage in close combat with the heavy fighter jet. The plug-in volume is relatively large, and after the improvement to the J-10 b, the ground attack ability has increased greatly. Therefore, it has a certain positioning in the Iraqi Air Force.

"His Excellency President, I have another proposal," Farueg said.

"Tell me." Kusai felt that he had to come here to inspect it in the future. Unconsciously, Iraq's military workers' vision was constantly widening.

"If we have the R&D capabilities ourselves, we can develop an advanced trainer aircraft." Faruger said: "With the increase in advanced fighter aircraft such as the Phantom 4000 equipped by the Air Force, the training of our pilots is becoming more and more important. They are all trained on two-seater fighter aircraft, which is very expensive. If we can develop an advanced trainer aircraft with similar operating performance, it can save a lot of training costs."

Trainer plane! Faruger proposed it is also very representative. Now, Air Force pilots have passed the primary propeller trainer plane and then flew directly on a two-seat aircraft after they arrived at the jet trainer plane. This is very costly. Therefore, in later generations, advanced trainer planes have gradually been accepted by more countries. They use telex operating systems and can simulate the flight characteristics of different aircraft through different software designs. This is a great improvement.

Moreover, advanced trainers can also be used as an attack aircraft by mounting ground attack weapons, achieving multiple uses for one machine.

Using the development of this advanced trainer aircraft as the first project of the Iraqi aircraft design team, it reduces the difficulty and is very applicable. It will not conflict with the existing models. It can also export large amounts of foreign exchange. This idea is really good!

"Your proposal is very good. After we have enough R&D teams, we can consider developing such a trainer machine." Kusai said.

…………

An odd-looking aircraft parked on the apron of the Israel Aircraft Manufacturing Company.

From the front, it is very similar to the f16, with a slightly flat front face, a semi-circular air intake underneath, and a cabin above, which also uses the same side rod operation.

But the rear part is completely different, and it is somewhat similar to the modified version of Phantom 3. This aircraft is the prototype of the second Lion fighter newly produced by the Israeli Aircraft Company.

Likud Group Minister Katchaf Arens, standing quietly on the apron, is a tough air force supporter and has always been very supportive of self-developed fighter jet projects. However, in the first few years, they developed slowly.

Now, restricted by the US arms sales ban, the Israeli Air Force seems to have returned to the First Middle East War. In order to restore the air force, they have no other choice.

I have never felt so urgent when I developed an advanced fighter.

Due to the increase in capital investment, the Israeli government has even accumulated another billion in R&D expenses through financing. Now, this fighter has begun to test flights.

The dual-engine version of the fighter is also under comprehensive design and development, and is expected to be able to fly for the first time next year. These speeds are simply beyond the world record of military aircraft development.

"Although the United States imposed sanctions on us and the f16 and f15 fighter jets temporarily stopped exporting to us, the various technical assistance from the United States has not stopped, and we can also purchase any part." said Katchaf Arens, the engineer in charge of the development.

Israel is so fast that they have adopted a large number of mature American technologies and received technical support from Grumman. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Israeli aviation industry, which has only modified the Phantom Machine, to quickly develop such a fighter.

Looking at the prototype aircraft that had already begun to fly into the sky, Katchaf Arens's eyes showed a sense of fanaticism: "Can our fighter jets end their test flights this year? Our air force needs to be equipped with twenty of these aircraft by the end of this year."

"We will do our best." The engineer said, the Israeli Air Force is in urgent need of fighter jets now!...)
