1238 Super-7 international joint production? Very reliable
No matter how advanced you buy, it is not as reliable as the backward equipment you can produce. At least, in the war, you can continue to produce to supplement your consumption.
If you buy it, once the exporting country is banned, it will never be able to replenish it.
During the Iraq-Iraq War, Iraq and Persians were both typical of buying to build national defense. In the end, both countries almost went bankrupt, especially the Persians. When the arms embargo of Western countries was not in place, the command level of the Iraqis would be too garbage and would not be crippled, and they would almost go bankrupt.
If both sides had huge military production capacity, the war would not have lasted for eight years.
After all, in the past eight years, the two sides have not had much time to fight. After each small-scale battle, both sides consume a lot of money. In the end, they can only slowly accumulate various consumables, accumulate almost the same amount, and launch it again...
The two once wealthy oil-producing countries have become poor in this way of accumulation and consumption.
"Lao Mu, whether it is the friendship between our two countries or our private friendship, as long as we can provide it, it is not a problem. Win-win can make our friendship deeper and longer." Xie Kai finally said only this sentence.
Mubara looked at Xie Kai with a grateful look on his face. He was about to speak, but was left with gratitude lost by Xie Kai's next words.
"Of course, friendship belongs to friendship and business belongs to business, we also need to survive. The money we should give is a cent of it." Xie Kai's words made Mubara very urge to beat him up.
After signing the intention contract, the C-910 waiting for Xie Kai and others at the airport took off in the dark. Accompanied by this civil aviation passenger plane was Pakistan's J-6, which is about to be retired.
Super-7a and Y-8 have already transferred to Kachira's airport. The passenger plane will not stop in Kachira. The fighter planes staying there will gather in the airspace outside Kachira and fly directly to the capital of Oman to transfer into Saudi Arabia.
"Pakistan has a poor domestic foundation. It is not easy to complete the domestic production of the Super-7 fighter jet." Bai Yanjun shook his head and said on the plane, looking at the J-6 flying outside the porthole.
China's technology is very different from that of the international community, but the fighter jets equipped are all made in China.
It is a good thing to be able to produce by yourself.
"Actually, they are in the same situation as us, more advanced, we don't have one either, and it is also very difficult to develop ourselves." Ge Minglang could see clearly.
Cheng Bushi and others next to him did not understand the intention contract signed with Pakistan. Pakistan did not show any interest in civil aviation passenger planes like C-910.
"Maybe, they have established an aircraft manufacturing industry and can jointly produce C-910 aircraft with the domestic market?" Xie Kai suddenly asked such a question, "International cooperation can allow Y-10 to gain more market opportunities."
"The technical conditions in Pakistan are too poor. They don't even have the ability to repair large aircraft. The C-130 and other transport aircraft in Pakistan have been inspected in Singapore..." Cheng felt that Xie Kai's idea was too whimsical. "It took nearly twenty years for the Y-10 project to be able to have the current situation. The industrial foundation of these countries is not as good as when we started the Y-10."
The aircraft manufacturing industry has very high requirements for technical foundations, etc.
Not only is it enough to have skills, but it also requires rich experience.
Cheng hopes that Xie Kai and the others will not think about it. These things are not very operational and too difficult.
Originally, there were not enough domestic technicians. If technical training was provided to foreign countries, it would have a significant impact on the progress of domestic research and development.
"Egypt has a good technical foundation, and it is indeed a very good idea to attract Argentina and other countries. Some basic technical facilities in the fighter jet production line can also produce civil aviation passenger aircraft... and even our fighter jets can take the path of international cooperative production." Bai Yanjun felt that Xie Kai's idea had a great possibility of implementation.
"Selling production lines is also a good business. Just join forces with a few countries with better technical foundations and spend a few years training technicians from these countries to help us complete some basic research..." Ge Minglang also felt that this matter was more reliable.
Cheng looked at these people in amazement from time to time.
He really couldn't figure out what they were thinking.
It's a thankless thing.
These countries proposed are all countries with weak economies and low domestic market demand.
When McDonald entered China, it produced and assembled in China. The domestic foundation was so good that many of the parts produced could not meet McDonald's requirements. In the end, McDonald had to transport parts from the United States to China, making the cost of McDonald's md-82 aircraft produced by the Shanghai Stock Exchange's large aircraft production factory far higher than that produced in the United States.
If the Y-10 project is done like this, it will probably be more troublesome.
"We have to plan this matter well, and Egypt probably wants to do it too. The wings, vertical tails and other things can be left to them for production..." Originally, Xie Kai was still considering how to get greater benefits from Egypt and other countries.
If it weren't for being moved by Mubara and sincerely wanted to help them develop basic industries, Xie Kai had never thought about this problem.
It is undesirable to focus on the future demand of the domestic market.
If a company wants to achieve great development and take the internationalization path, it is necessary.
How to maximize profits?
Then you can only have interests tied up. At present, the world's large aircraft market is basically dominated by Boeing, Airbus and McDonald. China has been blocked by Western countries. It is not easy to obtain orders in European and American countries with a large demand in the aviation market.
Now we can only seek out market gaps.
In areas with blank markets, those countries are extremely poor and have poor technical capabilities, which are despised by European and American countries.
If you use technology and the production of some parts to exchange for the market, those countries that produce some parts will definitely be embarrassed to buy aircraft from European and American airlines that are not as expensive as their orders and are not?
The more I thought about it, Xie Kai felt that this matter was more reliable.
The distance from Kachira to Muscat, the capital of Oman, is not far. It was only around 2 a.m. when we arrived.
This is not the first time Xie Kai has come here. When Iraq used crude oil to pay, the River Crab Mercenary Group, which was responsible for tanker security, was stationed here. Even now, the River Crab Mercenary Group still has a business contact office here to provide safety protection for some freighters.
Xie Kai did not contact the people of the River Crab Mercenary Group, and also did not meet with officials from the Oman Ministry of Defense. When they returned from Paris, the exhibition team would perform in Oman's air performances, and Oman's Sultan Qaboos would also meet Xie Kai at that time.
At this time, Oman had no interest in weapons and equipment from China. The entire Omani Air Force was full of British fighter jets.
These rich and low defense missions are all potential target customers of Xie Kai's plan.
Pakistan and Egypt have very friendly relations with these countries. Xie Kai is willing to sell production technology to these two countries, with the purpose of the fighter jet market in the Middle East.
To grab an order from F-16, it is not possible without careful planning.
In Oman, the exhibition team did not stay for long. After completing the refueling work and a simple plane inspection, they set off again for Saudi Arabia.
The seven Super-7a, which had been filled with fuel, took off from Oman, formed three passenger planes over Oman, surrounded these large aircraft in the middle and headed towards the airport provided by Saudi Arabia to pass by the Chinese exhibition team.
Two F-5e fighter jets were already waiting in the air before the Chinese exhibition team entered Saudi Arabia's airspace. These were aircraft arranged by Saudi Arabia to pilot.
"The Saudis are also determined. In order to avoid hurting us, they will use the most backward fighter jets in their country to guide us." Xie Kai looked at the two F-5e fighter jets leading in front in the cockpit before, and sighed in his heart.
Most of the air force equipment in Saudi Arabia is currently the world's top fighter jets.
The strong winds from Europe and the F-15 from the United States are really a blow if these aircraft appear in front of the Super-7a.
"..." Bai Yanjun and others had never thought of such a problem at all.
Ge Minglang didn't care, "In the future, we will have more advanced heavy fighter jets."
He has such confidence that the entire Super-7 team has it.
"There will definitely be some. I don't know if Egypt has persuaded Saudi Arabia to buy some Super-7a as a trainer." Xie Kai murmured.
Regarding Xie Kai's words, Bai Yanjun and others were not interested in connecting words, and their thinking was too prone to the point that ordinary people could not keep up.
The flight formation landed at a simple military airport in the southern part of the Saudi capital Riyadh. When it landed, the sky was already bright and the surrounding environment could be clearly seen.
It is said to be simple, but there are not many infrastructures, but there are still long runways for large passenger planes like the C-910 to take off and land. The terminal building is not big and the hangar is not many.
"This is their important air force base? Next to it is the flight system we provide?" Bai Yanjun saw the unfolding flight next to the airport terminal-359.
How can they not be familiar with what they develop and produce themselves?
"There is such strict precautions here?" Xie Kai was a little puzzled.
This area is far away from South Yemen, which Saudi Arabia does not deal with, and the scue provided by the Soviet Union to South Yemen is simply inaccessible.
"Sir, our Prince is waiting for you to have breakfast together." After the greetings, the person in charge of the base secretly said to Xie Kai.
Xie Kai was even more confused. He had never said that any prince in Saudi Arabia would meet him in private.
"Prince Sultan?" The Saudi prince that Xie Kai is most familiar with is the only commander of the air defense force, Prince Sultan.
The base head nodded and signaled Xie Kai to follow him to meet His Highness the Prince.
