Red Soviet Union

"However, in this case, will it cause the cost to soar significantly?" said the commander of the Egyptian Air Force: "The original procurement cost of the J-7 is very low. After such improvements, I am afraid that it will not be able to be of high quality and low price."

Want to let the horse run, but don't want the horse to eat grass, how can there be such a beautiful thing! However, this is also the tragedy of poor countries! Andre said: "This kind of improvement is indeed more expensive than the original fighter, but it is definitely cheaper than other three-generation fighters. For example, in terms of price, I am sure that it is definitely less than the Mirage 2000. one-third."

Andre's words made the commander of the Egyptian Air Force blushed. The other party obviously knew about his negotiation and was very optimistic about the performance of the Mirage 2000. However, there was not enough funds. After several rounds of negotiations, there was no result.

"In terms of performance, it can at least reach more than 80% of the Mirage 2000." Andre said: "Of course, if someone is willing to invest in the early stage and join the research and development, they can get a lower price. Not sure, we will get a production line and move it to our own production."

This sentence, said the Egyptian Air Force commander's heart: "If this is the case, we in Egypt are very interested in this project."

Historically, Huaxia sold the J-7m to Egypt, but in the end, Egypt chose the Mirage 2000. For them, the price is very important, and the combat effectiveness is also very important. If you can take both, of course, it is the best! Moreover, for Egypt, which is committed to developing its own country's industry, it is even more important to introduce production lines.

The commander of the Egyptian Air Force was really tempted, and the national air force personnel who were onlookers were also tempted. At less than one-third of the price of the Mirage 2000, it was absolutely worthwhile to obtain more than 80% of the combat effectiveness.

However, Tu Jida became more and more confused. These projects could not be carried out by himself. Moreover, when Andre was talking just now, he kept talking about MiG 21, MiG 21, could it be from the Soviet Union? Want to do it yourself and improve the MiG 21? Isn't this robbing one's own business? Then this time I came to Moscow, it was really a misstep!

"Mr. Tu, how about we talk later?" At this moment, Andre said to Tu Jida.

"Okay, okay." Tu Jidarian said two okays, followed Andre, and walked to the back room.

These rooms are just behind the booth, which is convenient for some interested businesses to talk further, and now, following Andre, Tu Kida is full of doubts.

"Mr. Tu, what do you think of the improvement suggestions I just mentioned?" Andre asked Tu Jida.

"We are very interested, but, as far as our own ability is concerned, if we improve, we may not be able to complete it on time." Tu Jida said.

His words did not put gold on his face. After all, since its establishment, Chengfei has not independently developed a model to improve the J-7, nor has it improved so much.

Just to improve one nose, how to match the engine and the air intake is the key point. You must know that when Shen Fei improved the air intake of the J-8's nose to the air intake on both sides, I don't know how much brains I used. With the MiG's nose as a reference, it can be considered an improvement.

The air intake from the belly is not so easy for Chengfei to do well.

"Your J-7 improvement project should be self-financing, right?" Andre asked, "If that's the case, have you ever thought about whether this project can be turned into an international joint project? Technology We can work together to solve the above problems, for example, our Mikoyan Design Bureau can send some engineers to help you complete the modification task of the J-7."

Become an international joint project, and Mikoyan engineers are involved!

At present, Mikoyan Design Bureau is still a world-renowned design bureau, and every fighter they design is fully representative! If you can invite the engineers here to help Chengfei design, it can definitely be done quite beautifully!

Moreover, the MiG 29 uses the rd33 engine. The engineers of the Mikoyan Design Bureau know the performance of this engine well and can better match the performance. As for the air intake of the fuselage, it is not in their hands. something happened.

If you cooperate with the Mikoyan Design Bureau, it will become a complete learning task for yourself. In working with them, you will gain a lot of advanced fighter design experience.

However, there is no free lunch in the world. What do the Soviets want to get by helping themselves like this? This is not the time when the country was first established. The Soviet Union selflessly assisted many things in China, including Chengfei. It was also established with the help of the Soviets. Now, the socialist big brother also has to live~www.wuxiax.com~ That need Do we pay these experts? ' asked Tu Keda.

Under the tide of the socialist market economy, these people are more realistic. Andre said: "This is one way, of course, there is another way, that is, now we jointly develop and wait until the market is launched. We share a certain profit, we don’t need too much, 30% of the profit is enough. If this project fails to develop and does not get any income, then we don’t need any compensation from you.”

In two ways, Cheng Fei can be regarded as hiring experts from Mikoyan and paying the various expenses of these experts, or it can be regarded as joint development and sharing risks. However, Tu Jida knew that he had no choice at all.

Hiring the other party's experts and owning all the intellectual property is the best, but the question is, do you have that much capital? Now I'm coming here with a plane, in fact, I'm here to find funds! Relying on our own civilian projects, we will never be able to fill the gap in the development of military aircraft.

Especially now, according to Andre, the improvements to the J-7 are considerable and the cost will soar.

Moreover, if the development of the project fails, Cheng Fei is afraid that it will go out of business. Therefore, in order to reduce the risk, joint development is the most suitable way out.

In addition to this reason, it is still the technical reserve of Chengfei. Chengfei is to build an airframe, radar, engine, and even missiles. Okay, and the Soviet Union didn't ask for much. It didn't ask for half, but only 30% of the profit. It was absolutely conscientious enough, and there was no possibility of its own rejection.

"Then we choose to jointly develop." Tu Jida said. (To be continued.)
