"So Cheng Fei was secretly developing such a high-performance radar? Why didn't you report it earlier?" Wang Hai, deputy commander-in-chief of the Air Force, couldn't help but say: "After developing such a radar has been successfully developed, it can be installed on Shenfei's J-82 fighter jet!"

Now, the 14 schools in Nanjing are responsible for developing radars for the J-82. Since everything starts from scratch, it is difficult to develop, and the project progress is completely backward.

Otherwise, no one from the Air Force would propose to use Western avionics first to equip its own J-8 fighter jets, so that the J-8 can gain valuable medium-range combat capabilities.

"We have reported to the Third Department of Machinery, and the Third Department of Machinery requires us to raise funds for self-raised research and development." Tu Jida said.

It's self-raised funds again! In China, radars are all handed over to the 14 institutes to develop, but unfortunately the 14 institutes are too backward. At the same time, after visiting the Pakistan Air Force, they have the idea of ​​self-development. Bai Xue has led a group of research teams, including scientific researchers from Pakistan, to overcome various technical difficulties day and night.

This is not to survey and map an aircraft skeleton. Just determine the appearance. What functions does each circuit board have? How to solve it with your existing technology? The most important thing is the radar program! How to determine whether the echo is a clutter or a target? How to operate the air-to-ground mode requires programs to support it. Deciphering the programs inside and disassembly the source code is even more difficult.

The funding issues that they were most worried about were not problems, because another Middle Eastern country also needed this kind of radar, as long as they told them that their side was developing, they would provide some funds.

Cheng Fei and Pakistan jointly developed it. A country in the Middle East still used this model.

It is extremely difficult to develop high-performance radars. Even the Soviet Union was having a headache for the flat-slit radar on the Su-27. Finally, it announced its failure and turned around and re-tightened the lid of its bulky upside-down pot.

The West imposed a technical blockade on the Soviet Union, but Cheng Fei gained the advantage and obtained two prototypes of radars. Moreover, various circuit components can also be imported from the West in the name of civilian use. Although civilian electronic components have poor anti-interference ability. But now, they must first make sure to copy them and then switch to their own reinforced military electronic components.

Mhamad couldn't help but laugh in his heart, putting it on the J-82? I'm afraid that the guys from Shen Fei are embarrassed to use it, are they? Are their faces really that thick? An improved J-82 occupies a large amount of funding for air force equipment from the country, as for performance...

"Well. Yes, we are also looking forward to this self-developed radar entering the practical stage as soon as possible." Mhamad said: "This is of great significance to the development of our air force. A fighter aircraft mainly consists of three parts: the body, avionics and engines. As long as we overcome the difficulties of avionics and engines, the body must have a mature plan."

"Yes, that's it. What we lack now is mainly avionics and engines. Once these two projects are completed, our new projects can be fully launched." Another scientific researcher said.

New project! When this sentence came out, the minister of the Third Department of Machinery frowned. You can't say such words casually!

"Oh? We Chengfei, there are new projects?" Deng Gong asked.

"Chairman, this is a confidentiality project." said the Minister of the Third Ministry of Machine Building.

In front of the Pakistan delegation, it leaked its most advanced fighter jet project, which is very inappropriate. Especially, the current new project has not been shown to the Chairman. If the Chairman likes it, Chen Fei's improved project will probably not be guaranteed. After all, the country's current financial resources are too limited.

"It's okay, in front of our Pakistani friends, there is no secret of our military power." Mr. Deng said attentively: "As long as there are in our arsenal, we can sell it to our Pakistani brothers. But now, I'm afraid they don't look down on our Air Force equipment."

Deng Gong's words were self-deprecating. In the past, the Republic supported many weapons from Pakistan. Now, the weapons performance of Pakistan's equipment has far exceeded the models produced by the Republic. In the military exercise just underway, Pakistan taught the Republic's Air Force a vivid lesson, allowing them to know what a modern air force is. The models they still hide are actually behind.

"Old Song, the Chairman said so, just report it to the Chairman." Tu Jida said.

They had long wanted to report to their superiors, but they had no chance. Seeing that Chen Fei was about to leave most of the allocation, and the Air Force was paying attention to Chen Fei's J-82 project, Cheng Fei's people were very anxious.

The most anxious thing is Song Wencong, the chief engineer in charge of the new model project. At this time, he was already an old man in his fifties. In his lifetime, this will be the last model he will be in charge, and it is also the country's first third-generation model!

"Okay." He took the model he had just taken to the conference table again.

"Chairman, this is our new model, codenamed Project 10, and is our advanced fighter jet plan."

Deng looked at this model carefully. Unlike previous fighter jets, this plane seemed to move the tail wing to the front.

"This is called duck-style layout, also known as head-up layout. As long as we move the canard wings in front, we will generate positive lift and the nose will be lifted up immediately. This will have the ability to point the nose quickly and also achieve good fighting performance." Song Wencong said.

Regarding the duck-style layout, Cheng Fei has already carried out many projects, and the eliminated J-9 uses this layout.

"At the same time, the canard wing also generates vortex with the main wing behind, which can maximize the maneuverability of the aircraft." Song Wencong continued: "We use air intake on the belly, and the nose is empty, which can be equipped with high-performance radar. At the same time, air intake on the belly can also meet the needs of large angle of attack. Our aircraft designs a maximum instantaneous hover angular velocity of about 30 degrees per second, a maximum stable hover angular velocity of 16 degrees per second, and a maximum climb rate of 305 meters per second."

When he said these words, Wang Hai, deputy commander of the Air Force, immediately showed a surprised look. If this is the case, the maneuverability of this fighter jet is far stronger than that of the Shenfei J-8!

When an outsider watched the fun and an insider looked at the trick, Wang Hai almost immediately made a decision: "Our Air Force needs such a fighter jet!"

"The biggest disadvantage of duck-style layout is that it is unstable, and it is also the biggest advantage. When we use telex operation to control this fighter, unstable static makes it have good maneuverability." Song Wencong continued, this is a good opportunity. The second leader of the Air Force has made the decision, and even if Cheng Fei's research and development funds are settled!

Cheng Fei is not unfamiliar with telex operation. He had already converted a J-6 into a line-controlled fighter jet before, and accumulated a lot of experience.

"What engine do you plan to use?" asked Mhamad.

Mhamad, in his previous life, knew this fighter very well. The same heart problem was not yet established until 1987. Moreover, more than ten years have passed and the installation level has not reached the level of installation. Even the J-11, the Air Force refused to install the Turbo Fan Ten. This No. 10 aircraft project, thanks to the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the use of Russia's al-31 engine, was considered to be a continuous flight.

Now, the turbofan Six project has just been terminated, and the fighter has begun to be designed, but it is in the stage of no engine.

"We plan to use the tf41 modification." Song Wencong said.

Driven by Mhamad, the localization of the SBE engine has been completed, and the modified TF41 engine has begun to be developed. The thrust has increased by 17% compared to the prototype SBE. Although it has just exceeded the ten-ton level in terms of thrust, it still has the potential to further increase. In the Rolls-Royce company's plan, there is a 115-ton thrust model. As long as it is improved, it will definitely be qualified to push the No. 10 machine to take off.

Cheng Fei and Xifei are very close to each other and have been paying attention to Spbe Engine, just to get a qualified engine for their own projects.

Two types of TF41 engines will also become national key models.

"If you allow it, our Pakistani researchers can join in the development of this fighter jet on your side," said Mhamad. "We have contacted Sweden's Saab Company and hope to participate in their fighter jet development and provide some funds."

Sweden’s Saab Company! Cheng Fei certainly knows that this fighter jet is similar to Cheng Fei’s J-10 project, and adopts a duck-style layout, which is the strength of the Swedes.

If Pakistanis participate in this project in Sweden, a lot of experience can be brought to Cheng Fei, which can help Cheng Fei avoid many detours. This is definitely worth it!

Mhamad returned home midway, and the delegation was still in Europe. According to his arrangement, he continued to discuss various projects in Europe, and now it is in Sweden.

The Swedes also encountered financial troubles when developing Gripen. When Pakistan was willing to provide funds but had to intervene in the development process, the Swedes agreed. At this time, Pakistan was considered a quasi-Western ally, and Europe was also popular with many countries to jointly develop.

Pakistan has no other requirement, it is just a joint development. For Pakistan, it is a good opportunity for their own researchers to make progress.

"Your Air Force is experiencing the battle with the Soviet Air Force. You have the richest experience and more experience in air combat. If you can intervene in the development of our fighter jet, you will provide more valuable suggestions." Wang Hai made his statement first. (To be continued)
