For the middle school trainer, Mhamad almost chose the train-8. Although the development progress of this aircraft is not yet clear, Mhamad has also made a decision. Later experience tells Mhamad that it is absolutely right to choose this trainer!

Below we need to send someone to Nanchang Airlines to investigate and negotiate the project of the Chinese education aircraft. The higher education aircraft is also a model that Pakistan needs to choose.

In fact, many countries do not have higher education aircraft. After flying the middle education aircraft, they can directly board the two-seater fighter jet and carry out corresponding training. Now, third-generation aircraft is not as common as later generations, and there are very few countries that use higher education aircraft.

However, from the perspective of cost-effectiveness ratio, wasting the flight time of precious fighter jets on training students is not worth the effort. Fighter jets are very precious. For example, Soviet fighters have to overhaul the engine once in almost a few hundred hours. If they fly for a few hundred more hours, the engine will be scrapped.

Fighters are used for combat, and higher education aircraft are the best solution for training pilots!

The performance of higher education aircraft is higher, very similar to that of third-generation aircraft. It can be used to train pilots of third-generation aircraft. At the same time, the procurement cost of higher education aircraft is far lower than that of third-generation aircraft, so the cost of training pilots is very low.

On the other hand, the performance of higher education aircraft is high and some weapons can be added. During combat, it may be almost impossible to fight with the opponent in air. However, it is a very practical choice for ground attacks, and it can also reduce the number of ground attack aircraft purchases. In later generations, almost all third-generation aircraft have the ability to attack ground.

Old Arslan has been in the United States for many years, but he is still accustomed to American training methods and uses higher education aircraft to reduce the loss of front-line fighter jets. This is a very common idea.

Now, for the continuous development of the Air Force, Old Arslan has brought out a series of trainer aircraft plans.

"The main models of the higher education aircraft are the British 'eagles', the French 'Alpha Jets', and the Italian 'Maki', these models." Old Arslan continued to introduce to Mhamad: "These three models are all coach attack aircraft. While coaching, they also have the ability to attack ground."

The three types of aircraft are different. The British were already a second-rate capitalist country at this time, but there are still many advanced technologies in aviation.

In the late 1960s, the British Air Force prepared new aircraft to enter service, and at the same time required the entire flight training system to change and develop a new generation of medium/high-level jet trainers to ensure economical and effective training and meet future air combat requirements. In October 1971, Hawke Sidley won the bid and began to develop a new trainer aircraft. In 1972, Rolls-Royce's afterburner-free turbofan engine was selected. The entire project progressed rapidly, and even entered the development stage of five pre-production aircraft without the development of prototypes. The mass production aircraft entered the army in November 1976, which was also very rapid.

At the same time, this aircraft has good performance and is even favored by the United States. It has become a special carrier-based trainer aircraft for the US Navy. It has been redesigned for this purpose. This aircraft has been continuously produced until later generations. It can be said to be the evergreen model of the sword.

The "Alpha Jet" senior coach/light attack aircraft is a coach/attack aircraft jointly developed by France's Dassault and Germany's Donier. It was also developed in 1970, and the first prototype began to test flights on October 26, 1973. It was officially put into production in 1975. Compared with the Eagle, the advantage of this aircraft is that it uses two engines. The advantage of the dual-engine is self-evident, which is safer than a single-engine trainer.

Italy's Margi Company is also an old trainer aircraft development company, which has built the classic mb.339 two-seat tandem trainer/attack aircraft. The prototype flew for the first time in 1976 and entered service in 1979. The first batch of entry into the Italian Air Force. After 210 hours of flight on the mb.339, it can change to the two-seat fighter aircraft. This aircraft has a load capacity of more than two tons and can even carry anti-ship missiles. It is a relatively heavy trainer attack aircraft. Unfortunately, the disadvantage is that it uses a turbojet engine, which consumes a large fuel volume and has a low life.

"We can examine these three types of trainers separately and choose a suitable model from them," said Mhamad.

Choosing a trainer is not imminent, and one needs to choose from the best choice. If Pakistan had not focused all its energy on imitating Tomcats, even Pakistan could develop a trainer itself, and the technical difficulty of the trainer is not high.

"If you want to train pilots, you don't have to be all on the plane, and you're wasting valuable flight time." Just as the two were talking, Yang Wei, a Chinese technician and the general manager of the telex system, suddenly spoke.

No matter which type of trainer aircraft, it will eventually have to fly a two-seater fighter jet and be modified to fly, ranging from dozens of hours to hundreds.

Hearing Yang Wei's words, Mhamad immediately turned his gaze, looked at him, and said, "Mr. Yang, do you have any good solutions?"

"You can use the flight simulator." What Yang Wei said suddenly gave Mhamad an inspiration.

Of course, training pilots can not only rely on real training, but also simulate!

In later generations, many combat games were not only played by players, but also by troops. Many games were even developed with military backgrounds and were funded by the military.

Many players cannot really experience war, but they can learn a lot of knowledge from the game, especially air combat games. The famous lockon in later generations is simulated very realistically. Each model is almost completely derived from real fighter jets. If the overload is too large during the game, it will even have a black screen, and it will be used to imitate the pilot's black vision, and the effect is very realistic.

However, that is already a computer in later generations. Even an ordinary Android phone in later generations is already running faster than the most powerful computer host in this era. This kind of computer game mainly relies on refreshing the screen image, and requires powerful hardware support.

In this era, what are computer games? At most, it is cards, minesweeping, and this type of game. In the game halls that are popular on the streets, there are mainly arcade games. The pictures are probably similar to animations.

However, these are all folk games. If the Pakistani official wants to simulate it on its own, he can increase more investment and create a large computer. Using this large computer to simulate it, the effect will definitely be much better. Although computers are very expensive, they are definitely cheaper than combat machines.

Now, using simulators has gradually matured, and the control of the aircraft has begun to transform into telex operation! The control rate of the aircraft is also a problem with the computer's program, so the software aspect is much simpler.

"We simulate a simulated cockpit." Yang Wei said: "It's exactly like a real cockpit, but the front has become a fluorescent screen. The outside world is simulated through the fluorescent screen, training pilots' take-off and landing, various operations, and cultivating them to be familiar with our fighter jets. Flying on such a simulator for dozens of hours, and then flying on a real fighter jet, you will definitely be able to familiarize yourself with the operation of this aircraft as fast as possible."

Yang Wei's suggestions are completely achievable, especially Pakistan's current software and hardware industries have begun to flourish.

A few years ago, when Mhamad first visited the United States, he signed a cooperation agreement with Amd Company to establish a wafer factory in Pakistan and produce Amd Company's CPU. At this time, it was still in the era of 80286, and 386 would not be released until 1991. This 16-bit processor has a main frequency of 20mhz. It has been regarded as a classic CPU for many years. Even after the birth of 386, many people still like to use 286 processors.

This CPU is currently used in many computers produced by Pakistan itself. In developing countries, Pakistan's computer education is quite advanced. Although it cannot be popularized in high schools, all universities offer computer-related courses, and at the same time, a large number of software personnel have been trained.

These software personnel are Pakistan's valuable assets. The advantages of computers have not yet been reflected. In the later generations, the software industry is a considerable industry! For example, although there are many illiterate countries in the country, the software industry is already close to Silicon Valley.

Yang Wei only made suggestions that the specific operation must be developed by Pakistan itself. After all, Chengfei’s key project is still Project No. 10. Yang Wei stayed here for at most half a month and should leave.

Yang Wei’s suggestion made Mhamad determined that the specific development could be carried out in universities! Universities are not only higher education institutions, places for cultivating talents, but also scientific research institutions. Even in the United States, many universities participated in the development of the Apollo moon landing program.

Now, the same is true for universities in Pakistan. The Islamabad University of Aeronautics and Astronautics is an elite school for cultivating aerospace. It is time to hand over some scientific research tasks to the school!

With this purpose, a few days later, Mhamad arrived at the University of Aeronautics and Astronautics on the outskirts of Islamabad.

This is a newly established institution, the gate of the school, and a J-6 fighter jet was erected. It was a meritorious aircraft in the Third India-Pakistan War. After retirement, it was pulled here to serve as a symbol of the school.
