If people in Wanwan want to buy Su 27, many people would think it was a fantasy. With the relationship between China and the Russians, is it a turn to buy it? But, in fact, even in history, people in Wanwan have definitely been thinking about Su 27.

Due to the August 17 Communiqué, Wanwan was unable to obtain advanced military equipment from the United States. At least before the collapse of the Soviet Union, this was the case. The fighter jets developed by themselves had an outrageous performance. In this case, the people of Wanwan had never given up on the efforts to obtain the Su-27. If Wanwan had such advanced heavy fighter jets and replaced them with Western avionics, their combat effectiveness would definitely be up to the next level!

Xia Hanmin, chairman of the Executive Yuan National Science Committee, promoted this matter with all his strength. He first allocated US$50,000 to Meng Xianyu, the leader of the Science and Technology Group of the "National Science and Technology Council" in Germany at that time. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the unification of the two Germanys, relying on the context of the former East German science and technology community, and using Germany as a base, to develop transportation between the former Eastern European Communist countries and the Soviet science and technology community.

Meng Xianyu is also a fierce man in the Wanwan science and technology industry. He graduated from Zhongzheng Institute of Technology and participated in the nuclear weapons program in the Chiang Ching-kuo era, but later left it alone under pressure from the United States. He is now in Germany, participating in the German computer simulation research project on nuclear reactions. Germany's unification allowed Meng Xianyu to gradually get on the line with the Soviet National Academy of Sciences through connections in the science and technology industry.

As the Soviet light industry was still underdeveloped, Meng Xianyu began a sugar bomb offensive, and occasionally brought some whiskey and other gifts to visit the Soviet Union, winning the friendship of many members of the Soviet National Academy of Sciences. Through exchanges between the scientific and technological circles, the Soviet Union also began to be interested in Wanwan, especially Li Guoding, the "godfather of science and technology" of Wanwan. After the exchange, Meng Xianyu led the way, Li Guoding dragged his old body. He first traveled to Europe, then turned to Prague, flew into the Soviet Union from Prague, and met with officials from the Soviet National Academy of Sciences and the National Science Commission. The relationship between the two sides became close. So Li Guoding proposed a plan to purchase fighter jets from the Soviet Union.

All this went very smoothly, and now, like the historical development, Wanwan visited the Soviet Union through the friendship established by the scientific and technological community and negotiated with the Soviet Union for purchase of fighter jets.

The Soviet Union attached great importance to this arms sales. After all, unlike history, the Soviet Union is now carrying out firm reforms. For them, selling military equipment in exchange for sufficient funds can greatly reduce the country's investment in the military and use more funds to reform the country and develop the economy.

Therefore, the Soviet Union had long begun to sell Su-27 fighter jets to various countries. Unfortunately, because the Su-27's results were really bad on the battlefield in Afghanistan, potential countries were not interested in Su-27 at all. Especially the Soviets believed that the largest buyer, Huaxia, was ruined by the Tomcat fighter jets made by China themselves. Huaxia only ordered a small number of improved attack aircraft.

Under this situation, the Soviet Union was very excited by the order of a potential 100 aircraft from Wanwan. If the arms sales were completed, the Soviet Union would obtain a large export profit, and its new fighter jet development plan would be even smoother.

Now, led by Xia Hanmin, chairman of the "National Science and Technology Association" of Wanwan, led the President of the Chinese Science and Technology Association, namely Huang Xiaozong, the leader of the IDC Program, Xue Xiangchuan, the Director of the Science and Technology Association, Shi Hongzhi, the Director of the "National Science and Technology Association", and Ji Xianyu, Luo Zhiyuan, the Director of the Department of the West Asia of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and others to the Soviet Union in the name of scientific and technological transportation.

After the delegation arrived in the Soviet Union, it visited the Soviet industry seriously, hoping to participate in the Soviet industrial investment plan. However, a few days later, Xia Hanmin, Huang Xiaozong and Meng Xianyu secretly left the delegation and went to the Soviet National Science and Technology Commission to meet with the representatives of the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union attached great importance to this meeting. Those who participated in the discussion included Simonov, the designer of Su-27, Karning, the vice chairman of the Soviet Defense Industry Committee, and Sergei, the deputy minister of the Soviet Defense Ministry.

"I am very honored to be able to come to the great Soviet." Huang Xiaozong said. He seemed to have forgotten that with whom he supported, the red flags filled the mainland and drove Chiang Kai-shek into the sea. If there had not been a war in North Korea, the red flag would have been inserted across the sea to the treasure island.

Xia Hanmin and Meng Xianyu have come to the Soviet Union several times, only Huang Xiaozong. This is the first time. He is the general manager of the IF project in Wanwan. He knows clearly what the IF fighter is, so he hopes to obtain the heavy air-control fighter of the Soviet Union.

"Dean Huang." Simonov said: "Your spirit is deeply admired by your own ability to independently develop a new third-generation fighter jet."

As the chief designer of the aircraft, Simonov naturally knew how much effort it would take to develop a third-generation aircraft, especially in places like Wanwan that have no technical accumulation.

When he heard Simonov say this, Huang Xiaozong's old face did not blush. In fact, Wanwan has no ability at all. The main design was made by the United States. Unfortunately, it was inappropriate when it was made.

"Although we have developed our own fighter jets, it is a light fighter jet after all, we hope to introduce your Su27." Huang Xiaozong said: "The introduction of this fighter jet can give us strong air control capabilities."

"Our Su27 fighter jet is the best heavy fighter jet in the world," Simonov said: "Your choice is the most correct one."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Huang Xiaozong said: "We will not terminate the warplane of your country if we introduce your fighter jets, right?"

After all, it was Wanwan who introduced fighter jets from the Soviet Union. What Wanwan was most worried about was the mainland's reaction.

"Of course not. Our Soviet Union's foreign arms sales are our own business, and no one has the right to interfere." Sergei said, "As long as you are ready and withstand the possible pressure from the United States."

The United States will definitely not want to see Wanwan introduce Soviet fighter jets. The only risk of arms sales this time is interference in the United States.

"So we have to do it in secret." Xia Hanmin said: "When the United States discovered it, Su 27 had already entered our base. By then, even if the Americans strongly protested, we had already completed the transaction."

"So, we hope that this project can be carried out quickly," said Huang Xiaozong: "For example, we hope to send two pilots here immediately to receive Su 27's modification training and become our seed instructor."

Now, the substantive negotiation content has finally entered. In order to avoid news leakage, it must be fast and confidential!

When purchasing a fighter, you must first train the pilot. This must be carried out before the plane. Otherwise, when the plane arrives, no one will fly, and it will be useless.

"This is absolutely OK," Simonov said. "Just trained in our Sukhoi, and we are the best test pilots as instructors."

"We hope that your delivery will be fast, and it is best to deliver all the fighter planes within one year. I think we can hide it from the Americans for a year." Xia Hanmin continued.

"How many aircraft do you need?" Simonov asked.

"We first order a hundred aircraft. At the same time, we hope that there will be a contract for assembly, maintenance and technology transfer in the future, so that we can make subsequent improvements to this fighter jet, and at the same time, we must ensure at least ten years of supply of parts." Huang Xiaozong said.

Originally, the idf had a planned output of more than 300 aircraft, but if the Su-27 could be imported from the Soviet Union, the planned number of idf would be compressed, such as evenly producing 200 aircraft to Su-27.

Anyway, Wanwan has enough funds.

Of course, the technical defects of the Soviets were mainly electronic equipment, which was actually Wanwan’s strengths! Wanwan has a global electronics industry, such as the Golden Dragon Radar on the IF fighter, which was produced by Wanwan itself. Through improvements, the combat power of the Su27 can be made stronger.

One hundred aircraft! The Soviets present immediately showed joy on their faces. If the project can be reached, it would definitely be the biggest export contract!

"However, we hope that your asking price will not be too high." Huang Xiaozong continued: "We are very sincere and hope that you will offer a reasonable price. In this way, we will have new orders in the future."

Wanwan really has no choice. I have been in contact with France. The French offer is quite high, which makes them unacceptable. Therefore, now, when negotiating with the Soviets in front of me, the price is the first priority.

"What is the price you can afford?" asked Garning.

"No more than 35 million US dollars." Huang Xiaozong said.

They had contact with the French. The French were willing to sell their Phantom 2000, but the price was quite high. Wanwan planned to buy sixty aircraft, but the price was as high as 4 billion US dollars, almost each aircraft was more than 60 million US dollars. This was simply a robbery of money!

Now, facing the Soviets, the people in the Wanwan side are very determined. The price should not be too high, and the Wanwan cannot be slaughtered!

35 million US dollars, this price is really not high. You know, this is a heavy twin-engine fighter!

At most, the other party will raise the price. Each fighter jet will be sold for 40 million US dollars or even 50 million US dollars. Wanwan can afford it.

"Okay, we can agree." To their surprise, the Soviet Union agreed very happily.

"However, we hope that you can pay half the deposit first." Simonov said: "In this way, our factory will work overtime to produce, and at the same time, the fighter jets equipped to the troops will be exported to you first. We try to complete this contract within half a year."

Pay half the deposit first! Although it is a bit too much, if the other party can agree to such a price, it is also appropriate to pay a little more deposit. Huang Xiaozong agreed immediately. (To be continued...)
Chapter completed!
