1284 Are Indians ready for a super-7 fall?(1/2)
Even if they won the contract and needed it in Israel, China had to unconditionally provide core components such as wings and frame beams. Now, the Israelis did not say who the buyer was, Xie Kai had never spoken.
No matter what Albert and Radino said, he was unwilling to continue the talk.
Even the attitude became cold.
In desperation, the Israelites had to say goodbye first and leave.
Bai Yanjun and others were also shocked by the orders for 500 Israelis. What a great profit.
But they don’t know who the customer is, what can they do?
It is really incredible that the Israelis came to them at such a time and asked China to provide such huge parts for fighter aircraft!
Both the fire control system and the avionics system can be produced by the Israelis themselves.
And there are also supplies in Western countries.
At the same time, the Israelis could easily obtain the Pratt & Whitney F100 engine from the United States.
The United States has strong manufacturing capabilities.
Even Israel's own mechanical manufacturing capabilities are very strong.
But they are asking China for providing it now, who can understand?
"Five hundred aircraft! How much profit will we lose? If I had known it, I wouldn't have sold the technology to them!" Ge Minglang said in pain.
Although Bai Yanjun didn't say anything, the expression on his face showed that he thought so too.
Xie Kai looked at them and sighed, "How could we think of the current situation at the beginning? But we are not a loss. We sold 580 million just by technology, and it was just sold to the Israelites."
Super-7a technology and production lines are sold a lot.
Pakistan, Egypt, Argentina, and Israel...
"I want to know now who the Israelites sold the fighter planes to? Who has such a huge order!"
If it was five hundred engines, Xie Kai could understand it.
If it is equipped with more than -7b, it will only have 250 fighter jets.
What the Israelites wanted was 500 parts for fighter jets!
In other words, in addition to the most critical aviation and electric fire control system, there are also engine systems and other components. Israel hopes that China will provide it, which is somewhat unpredictable.
Radino and Albert were in trouble.
Especially Ladino, who was depressed all the way, finally stopped and looked at Albert: "Albert, do you think telling the Chinese that the fighter jets they developed together with the production line are provided to Indians, will the Chinese be furious?"
Albert nodded affirmatively, "The Chinese will not want to. The general manager must now tell the Chinese that with their attitude, if they don't tell them, they will not provide them. The United States will not provide these spare parts, which has a great impact on the orders of F-16."
That's the truth.
Americans are unwilling to provide Israel with any parts.
The more orders for the Super-7, the fewer buyers of the F-16.
What's more, the Israelites kept the most profitable in their own hands?
After a long discussion, I knew I had to tell the Chinese.
Especially since we have already negotiated with Indians, if the Chinese do not provide it, the contract cannot be signed.
Both of them had to return again.
Xie Kai was even more curious when he saw them coming back so soon.
"Thank you, this batch of fighter jet orders is not only our national air force, but also the Indian air force."
"What?"
Xie Kai thought he had heard it wrong.
"Indian."
The Israelites stared at Xie Kai's reaction.
Xie Kai's mouth twitched several times, "Damn it, you sold the fighter jets we developed to Indians! Do they know this is from China?"
The Israelis sold the Super 7 developed by China to Indians, which was something that no Chinese person could have imagined.
It’s not that I think selling Super-7 to Indians will have an impact on Chinese orders, but Xie Kai feels that with Indians’ ability to smash the plane, it won’t take long to destroy the reputation that Super-7 has finally gained.
This will even have a very serious impact on the reputation of China's military manufacturing as a whole.
From the 1970s to the first decade of the 21st century, the Indian Air Force dropped thousands of Soviet military aircraft of various types after obtaining the MiG-21.
Not to mention anything else, just MiG-21. India introduced nearly a thousand aircraft from the Soviet Union, and nearly 500 aircraft crashed in 40 years.
In the end, the Soviets' proud MiG-21 was awarded the nickname "Flying Coffin" and "Widow Maker".
Russia, which angrily inherited most of the Soviet Union's legacy, almost vomited blood.
This reputation has made the Russian-made fighter jets very bad, and the market has shrunk a lot.
The Indians not only threw MiG-21, Su-27, Su-30, as well as other trainers, helicopters, and transport planes, but also fell without delay.
Of course, the Indians do not think it is their problem, but the quality of the aircraft provided by the Soviet Union and Russia is too poor.
Then, the French plane was dropped, and the British plane was dropped...
The quality of aircraft in these countries is not good.
As a veteran, Xie Kai also knows that Indians are not the most powerful country in the world to displace planes.
The real Americans are the ones who fell 12,000 planes in the 40 years from 1947 to 1987, killing more than 8,000 pilots.
The Americans fell so many planes because they experienced the Korean War and Vietnam War in the process. In addition, the jet fighter technology was immature and the carrier-based aircraft did not have much experience in landing ships.
After 1987, the number of Americans dropped planes gradually decreased, and the average number of aircraft remained at about 15 per year. You should know that the number of aircraft equipped by the United States is extremely large.
The reason why Indians fell off the plane is known to the whole world. Not only are the poor quality of pilots, but there are also serious problems in logistics support.
The Israelites actually sold the Super 7 to the Indians. How could Xie Kai accept this fact?
Xie Kai's face looked ugly.
Albert hurriedly explained: "Thank you, the fighter jets sold to the Indians, although they are based on the technology of the Over 7a. They are selling our redesigned Lavi fighter jets."
This is a bit self-deception.
Xie Kai shook his head and said helplessly, "Two, we will not do it if we sell Israel's fighter jets to anyone."
The Israelites were puzzled. Will Xie Kai be so generous?
Are Chinese people not worried that Indians will put pressure on China's technology research and development and sales after obtaining their technology?
The Super-7 technology is available to Indians, which is likely to cause serious competition for China's fighter jet exports.
Xie Kai looked at the Israelites with a complicated mind.
In the end, it was decided to remind them, "Two, are Israel Airlines ready? Is it ready for the Indians to fall and make your plane famous?"
The Israelites did not expect Xie Kai to have such a strange idea.
He shook his head directly: "It is impossible, the fighter jets we provide cannot have any potential for any failures."
Xie Kai looked at the Israelites and smiled.
He admired the Israelites' faith very much.
"Two Indians fell planes, but they didn't fall if the quality of the planes was good. How many Soviet aircraft did they fall in China? But the Indian Air Force fell dozens of Soviet aircraft a year..."
Even after the Indians slammed the plane, the final reason was that some of the components provided by the Chinese to Russia were of poor quality...
Now that most of the mechanical parts are supplied, they will eventually say that it is a problem for the Chinese.
However, that doesn't matter.
The whole world knows what kind of urinary sex in Indians.
Money is what matters.
When the Israelis thought Xie Kai was going to change his mind, Xie Kai said: "The parts can be provided. The old rules are to pay the advance payment first."
Naturally, the Israelites would not refuse.
Xie Kai immediately thought of the Greek Air Force's request and felt that it was very reliable to ask the Israelis to provide NATO standard fighter jets to the Greek Air Force.
This can be done with the Israelites.
Xie Kai brought up his ideas, and the Israelites were even more happy.
The Israelites were interested and the problems that had always troubled Xie Kai and others were solved.
Israel is not a NATO country, because of its relationship with the United States, and uses NATO standard technology and ammunition.
After the negotiations with the Israelites, Xie Kai directly contacted the Greeks and prepared for further negotiations.
It is not only China that participated in the negotiations, but also the Israelis.
Constantine and Dimitridas frowned when they saw the Israelites appear.
What are the Israelis involved in negotiations with the Chinese fighter jets?
