Chapter 329 Introducing MiG-23

"Our current J-8 still has air inlet on the nose. This method has caused the inability to accommodate large-scale radar equipment. Although it is a dual-engine, the body is longer and has limited combat capabilities." Air Force Commander General Zhang first expressed his opinion: "Our army has been using the J-7 to defend airspace for nearly twenty years. We cannot wait any longer. We must equip advanced fighter jets as soon as possible! Today's air combat, everyone has seen that our young man, even if he has the courage to fight with the enemy, cannot defeat the enemy. I think we must introduce MiG- as soon as possible to improve the combat effectiveness of our air force."

The Air Force's desire for new fighter jets is the most urgent thing. It is helpless to rely on the old J-6 and J-7 to guard the motherland's airspace. However, due to the domestic technical level, the development of new fighter jets is quite difficult to produce. All so many models in history have failed without exception. Now, the J-8 has been developed only on the basis of the J-7 for so many years, and it is still unknown when it comes to equipment.

So, the Air Force Commander first made a statement that MiG is very powerful, we need it very much!

"Can we introduce a small amount of money to improve our J-8 fighter jets based on the MiG-?" Mr. Gu of Shen Fei carefully put forward this opinion.

Now it seems that the Air Force is quite satisfied with the MiG and can't wait to raise the meaning of introducing it. So the following question is how many to introduce it? If dozens of aircraft are introduced, then Shenfei's J-8 may still be mass-produced. If nearly 100 aircraft are introduced, and even production lines are needed to produce it themselves, Shenfei's J-8 will definitely be disbanded.

After all, this is Shenfei's main project. For the sake of J-8, all J-7 will be handed over to Chengfei for production. If the J-8 project is discontinued, Shenfei will lose the opportunity to develop its own fighter jets and can only live by assembling the MiG.

"For example, we use the MiG-head to install it on our J-8 fighter jet. In this way, the J-8 will improve the air intake on both sides and have space to install large radars." Mr. Gu continued: "We can use this fighter jet for interception operations."

"Even if the J-8 is changed to air intake on both sides, can it have the performance of the MiG-?" General Zhang continued: "The variable swept wing of the MiG-g gives excellent performance in various situations. Even if our J-8 is changed to air intake on both sides, it cannot defeat the MiG-in in combat, and cannot achieve rapid assault in long-distance interception. Since there is now a chance to introduce the MiG-in, we might as well introduce this fighter and then improve it on the basis of this fighter. Isn't that better?"

Introduce MiG-, introduce a complete set of production technologies, and then based on MiG-, various advanced fighter jets are improved and released, as the main fighter jets of the Chinese Air Force within 20 years!

"Yes, improvements based on MiG- are greater than our J-8. I also agree to introduce MiG." Chief Designer Tang of Shenfei said: "We are now developing a turbofan 6 engine. This engine should be equipped on MiG-like. By replacing the turbofan engine, we can get a lower fuel consumption rate to increase the range. At the same time, we also have a counterfeit SB engine. If the rear fuselage of the MiG-like is redesigned and stuffed into two SB engines, we can even turn this engine into a twin-engine heavy fighter, which can undertake the task of a fighter bomber."

The turbofan 6 is a tragic project of China Airlines. It was established in 1964. At that time, it was to develop a turbofan engine with a thrust-to-weight ratio of 6 to equip the planned J-9. After more than ten years of development, it has overcome various difficulties and finally been considered useful. Moreover, based on the WS6, the improved turbofan-6 model, code-named WS6g. While maintaining the original engine's appearance size, the maximum afterburner thrust of the engine was increased to 13.

8.2 kiloni, the maximum thrust increased to 83.3 kiloni, and the thrust-to-weight ratio increased to 7.05. If this plan goal is achieved, it will become a large-thrust turbofan engine with the same performance as in the West. Unfortunately, in history, in the early 1980s, the J-9 and Qiang-6 aircraft were successively disbanded, and the turbofan-6, which is its supporting power, lost its use target. Due to the adjustment of the national economic plan, the allocation of funds for the turbofan-6 was stopped. In early 1984, the development plan was cancelled.

China's dream of having an advanced power heart has been shattered from now on. Any model in later generations has been dragged down by the engine. If there is no plan to introduce the Su-27 from Russia, the J-10 will be indefinitely long. Moreover, even the J-20 must use engines imported from Russia.

The Turbo Fan-6 is from Shenyang Liming Engine Factory and is also considered a subordinate unit of Shenyang Aircraft. Now, if MiG- is introduced, it is obvious that not only the J-8 project will be greatly affected, but even the planned J-9 project will probably have to be discontinued. After all, the J-9 indicators are too high, which has long exceeded Shenyang Aircraft's technical capabilities and the aviation industry capabilities of the entire China's aviation industry! Now, it is so difficult to just have the J-7 double-launch version, let alone the newly developed Double 26 fighter jets.

If J-9 dismounts, the turbofan 6 will be in trouble. Since you want to introduce MiG-, you might as well find a new installation target for the turbofan 6! After all, the turbojet engine is outdated, and the turbofan is the mainstream!

Moreover, another major event in China's defense industry is the imported Spey engine. This engine is mature in technology and can be used at any time. It can also be used as a backup plan for MiG. It is just that it needs to be modified and stuffed into a double-engine, which is also a major operation. He didn't know that the Soviet Union had already had a dual-engine improved plan at this time.

Even Mr. Tang agreed to introduce MiG! Mr. Gu could only feel helpless in his heart. It seems that the J-8 project must be dismissed. With the introduction of this fighter jet, the immature J-8 was like a child in a cradle, and was forgotten.

"Now it seems that the introduction of MiG- is a major event in our aviation industry. In principle, our Ministry of Machinery and the Ministry of Machinery and the Ministry of Machinery also recommends the introduction of this world-level fighter jet to improve our overall aviation level in China and improve the combat effectiveness of our troops." The Minister of Ministry of Machinery and Machinery said: "However, the introduction of MiG--is a major event. We must send an inspection team to the Soviet Union for field inspections. At the same time, I suggest that the Soviet MiG-25 fighter jets can be inspected by the way, and the possibility of introducing MiG-25 fighter jets can also be discussed simultaneously."
