Chapter 184 Dragon Shadow Fighter
Meng Chunping enthusiastically introduced his Dragon Shadow fighter jet to the delegation from Pakistan Railway. His passionate explanation made Shabotai Warren and others fascinated. The more they listened, the more they listened.
This fighter is much more advanced than the existing fighters they have. It is simply a qualitative leap!
They are very much looking forward to this Dragon Shadow fighter jet being able to replace the old fighter jets in their hands and regain air supremacy from the White Elephant Kingdom.
Meng Chunping proudly announced: "The Dragon Shadow fighter is a high-performance, multi-purpose, all-weather third-generation fighter."
He paused for a moment and continued with a smile: "The Dragon Shadow fighter jet has outstanding mid-low altitude and high subsonic maneuverability, as well as a large range, combat radius and long airtime, and has excellent short-distance takeoff and landing capabilities. characteristic."
"The most amazing thing is that the Dragon Shadow fighter jet has a powerful weapon loading capacity, can be equipped with an advanced beyond-visual-range launch system, and can also launch a variety of advanced precision-guided air-surface weapons."
Meng Chunping's voice became more and more passionate.
He wanted to sell the Dragon Shadow fighter jet.
Lin Chenran had told Meng Chunping before that if he could "cheat", no, if he could get Bati to cooperate, then the R&D funds of the Dragon Shadow fighter's design and development team would be greatly increased.
If we “cheat” (attract) a few more partners, the R&D funds will be huge.
It is enough to make a profit for the design and development team of the Dragon Shadow fighter jet.
No, this is the problem with Meng Chunping's efforts to promote the Dragon Shadow fighter jet.
After Meng Chunping's brief introduction, not only the members of the Pakistan Railway delegation were "drooling" for the Dragon Shadow fighter jets, but even the representatives of the Yan Kingdom's military at the scene could not help but be moved.
They also feel that the Dragon Shadow fighter jet designed by 077 Machinery Arsenal is very exciting!
In some aspects, it is on par with the J-10 fighter jet.
this……
That……
Does the Yan Kingdom military want to purchase it?
Previously, the 077 Machinery Military Factory reported that the Dragon Shadow fighter jet was a second-generation and a half fighter jet, but the Yan Kingdom military showed little interest.
The main reason is that most senior military officials of the Yan Kingdom feel that the third-generation fighter jet, the J-10 fighter jet, has entered the research and development stage.
I believe it will be successfully developed in the near future.
There are three generations of fighter jets, who cares about two and a half generations of fighter jets.
The representatives of the Yan Kingdom's military who listened to Meng Chunping's introduction to the Dragon Shadow fighter felt that they were totally wrong.
This Dragon Shadow fighter may be better than the J-10 fighter in some aspects.
Can you bear this?
The Dragon Shadow fighter adopts a conventional layout of medium aspect ratio slat wings.
The fuselage adopts supersonic area law, beam and semi-monocoque hybrid structure.
Single vertical tail, differential horizontal tail, twin ventral fins, full-span leading edge flaps and trailing edge flaps.
The most surprising thing is that the Dragon Shadow fighter actually uses a more advanced DSI air intake.
No J-10 fighter jet uses this kind of air intake.
The advanced DSI inlet reduces the compression and separation boundary layer resistance, reduces radar reflection waves, and does not have an auxiliary intake valve and a release valve. The structural weight is greatly reduced, effectively improving the overall combat performance.
In terms of power, 077 Machinery Arsenal wants to use a new turbofan engine.
That's right, it is a newly developed turbofan engine based on the AL-31FN turbofan engine and Taihang turbofan engine.
Meng Chunping said proudly: "The Dragon Shadow fighter jet uses a turbofan engine newly developed by our 077 Machinery Military Factory."
"The engine has a maximum thrust of 49.4 kilonewtons and an afterburning thrust of 81.4 kilonewtons."
Shabotai Warren raised his hand to indicate that he had something to say. Meng Chunping gestured to the other party with a smile.
Shabotai Warren apologized first: "Meng, does your 077 Machinery Arsenal have such an advanced turbofan engine?"
"This is not me questioning you, but you have been importing aircraft engines from Mao Xiong and Yingjiang before."
When Meng Chunping heard this, he said calmly: "Mr. Shabotai, we have the relevant technology. I believe that in less than a year, you will be able to see the turbofan engine designed, developed and produced by our 077 Machinery Military Factory. "
Meng Chunping looked very confident!
Immediately afterwards, at his signal, the design drawing of the turbofan engine mounted on the Dragon Shadow fighter jet was released.
This dispelled some of the doubts in the minds of the representatives of the Pakistan Railways delegation.
Lin Chenran on the side said with a smile: "Shabotai, if you don't want to play with the turbofan engine designed and developed by our 077 Machinery Military Factory."
"You can purchase turbofan engines from other countries, and we can make changes and upgrades according to the turbofan engines you purchased."
Then he continued: "But I suggest that you still use the engine designed and developed by our 077 Machinery Military Factory."
"After all, we deliver the relevant technology and production lines to you."
Lin Chenran thought to himself: If you want to purchase related turbofan engine technology and production lines, you will definitely need to pay something - a green and beautiful knife.
Lin Chenran's words made all the members of the Pakistan Railway delegation fall silent and think.
It seems to give the other party two choices, but everyone understands.
"Mr. Lin, we need to go back and discuss using various turbofan engines."
After thinking for a moment, Shabotai Warren decided to put the issue aside for now.
Lin Chenran did not force the Pakistan Railway delegation to choose immediately, and smiled slightly: "Shabotai, no problem, this really needs to be thought about carefully."
"There's no rush!"
Immediately afterwards, Lin Chenran signaled Meng Chunping to continue introducing the Dragon Shadow fighter jet to everyone.
Basic parameters
Wingspan: 8.98 meters
Length: 14.30 meters (single seat version)
14.50 meters (two-seater version)
Height: 4.90 meters
Empty weight of the whole machine: 7965 kg
Normal takeoff weight: 9100kg
Maximum take-off weight: 13500 kg
Maximum Mach number: 1.6
Number of external racks: 8
After Meng Chunping's half-hour introduction, everyone had a clearer understanding of the Dragon Shadow fighter jet designed and developed by the 077 Machinery Military Factory.
It can be seen from the eyes of the members of the Pakistan Railway delegation that they are very interested in the Dragon Shadow fighter jet, and they can't wait for this fighter jet to serve in their own army immediately.
When Lin Chenran saw the expressions of the members of the Pakistan Railway delegation, he had an idea.
This should be done!
Next comes the negotiation stage.
That is, the initial investment of both parties, the price of a Dragon Shadow fighter jet, and the various expenses of later going to Pakistan to build a fighter jet production factory in China.
Originally, Shabotai Warren thought that the price would be cheaper due to the relationship between the two parties.
Lin Chenran: How is that possible? You want advanced fighter jets, but also want to have sex for nothing? No need to think about it, in my eyes there are only beautiful green swords, friendship? No, with money comes friendship.
The negotiations between the two parties are not going very smoothly.
Lin Chenran proposed to put the negotiations on hold first.
Give the Pakistan Railways delegation some time to seek instructions from the country.
Shabotai Warren and others also agreed to come down.
