Dominate South Asia

In order to keep it secret, Pakistan provided military uniforms. Before they got off the plane, they changed into Pakistani military uniforms. In this way, even if the Americans took satellite photos from high altitude, they would not find anything.

"Bai Xue, pay attention to your image." A middle-aged man whispered.

They all spoke Chinese, and the people on the Pakistani side could hardly understand them. The communication just now was conducted in English, and the other party brought a translator. Muhammad heard it very clearly. Bai Xue? It's a good name.

Except for the middle-aged man, no one else cared much. Many of them were still in contact with Western fighters for the first time.

Climbing the ladder, Song Wencong looked at the cockpit. The seat had a large tilt angle, and there was no joystick in the middle. It was arranged on both sides. The left hand was still the throttle, and the right hand was the joystick. This should be the legendary side stick arrangement, right?

Thinking of the fact that the J-7 aircraft based on the MiG-21 was still dominant in China, and thinking of the new fighter he was about to develop, Song Wencong felt even more deeply.

Belly air intake, fully movable horizontal tail, wing slats... these designers surrounded the fighter plane, all with their eyes wide open. Everything was new to them.

"Can we take a look at the radar?" It was the girl named Bai Xue who said to Muhammad in fluent English.

"Okay, absolutely." Muhammad said, motioning a ground crew member to open the radar cover on the nose.

Belly air intake, in order to achieve the air pre-compression effect, the lower part of the nose of the F-16 radar is a bit flat. When the ground crew opened the radar cover on the nose, Bai Xue's eyes opened even wider.

"It is indeed a flat slot radar! Senior brother! I am right. In terms of efficiency, the flat slot radar is far better than our Kagsaren antenna radar." Bai Xue said, her voice a little high.

The middle-aged man just now, who was called senior brother by Bai Xue, was even more embarrassed and said, "Bai Xue, pay attention to your image!"

"Learn from the foreigners to defeat the foreigners. You are here to study the advanced nature of these fighters, not to pay attention to your image, right?" Muhammad said with a smile beside him.

The senior brother's face turned pale immediately, but Bai Xue was not shy at all and said, "Mr. Brigadier General, you can actually speak Chinese?"

Mhammad touched his nose and said, "I brought it with me from my mother's womb."

Bai Xue smiled brightly: "Mr. Brigadier General, you are so humorous."

"This lateral operating lever, combined with the tilted seat, is to improve the overload resistance, right?" Song Wencong said.

"Yes, our pilots can reach 9 overloads in combat without black vision." Arslan said, "Besides, the bubble seat has a good view."

Outsiders watch the excitement, insiders watch the doorway. Song Wencong understood at a glance that this configuration is to improve the overload resistance, but it seems that lying diagonally like this is not completely comfortable.

Next to another Tomcat fighter, Chen Yiqian looked carefully up and down. This is the main carrier-based fighter of the US Navy. The most outstanding feature is the long-range interception capability. The variable swept wing gives it the best performance in various flight conditions.

Looking at the twin engines, twin vertical tails, and the rectangular air intakes on both sides, Chen Yiqian looked very carefully, and he wanted to disassemble the fighter and study it carefully.

After observing at the airport for more than two hours, the people in the inspection team were still not satisfied. At the invitation of Nur-Khan, they put away their interest and came to the restaurant of the base for dinner. The lunch was very rich. Everyone in the delegation ate to their heart's content, including the senior who kept telling Bai Xue to pay attention to her image. They ate happily.

The East had just ended the turmoil and returned to normal economic construction. The economy was still very weak and the food was very simple. Being able to fill one's stomach was the greatest satisfaction. When they arrived in Pakistan and saw so much food, they didn't care about anything.

After eating and resting for half an hour, the delegation came to the conference room of the base.

"It's a great honor that we have this opportunity to see world-class fighters." Tu Jida said, "F-14 and F-16 are both advanced military aircraft."

Tu Jida was a little emotional. Just a year ago, the main force of the Pakistani Air Force was still its own J-6 fighter. In just one year, so many changes have taken place. Pakistan has actually acquired the capabilities of a world-class air force.

Whether these fighters are borrowed or not, it is a skill to be able to borrow them. Moreover, they also played their power and intercepted several MiG-25 aircraft using Tomcat fighters.

"Our friendship with your country has a long history." Nur-Khan said, "We are also very willing to continue to maintain friendly cooperation in the military field."

The cooperation between the two countries in the military field is very sincere. In the India-Pakistan war, Pakistan's armored forces suffered heavy losses. Eastern countries directly drew a batch of tanks from their own equipment sequence to support Pakistan.

Now, Nur-Khan's words are full of sincerity.

"We have lagged behind the world in military fighters for more than ten years. We are very interested in seeing these two fighters this time." Tu Jida said, "So, we would like to ask you to lend us an F-16 and an F-14 for our research."

Tu Jida also felt that his request was a bit too much. Borrowing other people's main fighter jets and taking them back for research was actually mapping. He disassembled the two fighter jets, studied them carefully, and then assembled them for them.

In history, Chengfei once transported a Pakistani F-16 to its workshop, disassembled it and studied it carefully.

Now, hearing Nur-Khan talking about the friendship between the two countries, thinking of how much benefit the research of these two fighter jets would bring to his side, Tu Jida could no longer restrain his impulse and brought it up.

After Tu Jida finished speaking, the whole atmosphere suddenly changed. The Pakistani people lowered their heads. It seemed that everyone was recording something on paper with a pen. The meeting had just started. What could be recorded?

Nur-Khan was also a little embarrassed. He did mention the friendship between the two countries just now. It seemed a bit inappropriate to refuse it immediately now. The key was that he had no preparation for this proposal. This kind of thing must be reported to the president.

After a few seconds of silence, Tu Jida knew that his proposal was too abrupt. Just when he wanted to say something else, he saw Muhammad on the side speak.

"General Nur-Khan, I think we should accept this proposal from our friend." Muhammad said, "The United States is only our temporary friend, but our friends in front of us are eternal. They have stood firmly on our side in several India-Pakistan wars. We will lend them our fighter planes for research. If they can develop more advanced fighter planes, it will also be beneficial to us."

"Well, I will report this to the president." Nur-Khan said, "We will carefully consider the proposal of our friends."

"Mr. Tu," Muhammad continued, "Now, we are in a war, and it is indeed difficult to withdraw the front-line fighter planes for you to study. Especially the Tomcat fighter planes, which are responsible for interception missions, cannot be lent to you for the time being."

Hearing that Muhammad was just speaking for his side, and now suddenly changed the subject, Tu Jida knew that it was indeed inappropriate to borrow it at this time.

"We can withdraw an F-16 fighter plane and wait for the president to approve it, and then lend it to you for a few months, but I am afraid that the Tomcat fighter plane will not work." Muhammad said.

In the past few months, everyone has witnessed the powerful combat capability of the Tomcat fighter. Facing the huge air force of the Soviets, it is very difficult to lend them the Tomcat for research. It is not easy to lend them an F-16.

At the same time, the new fighter developed by our side is also a single-engine model, which is more reference-oriented than the F-16.

"As for the Tomcat fighter, you must have other channels to obtain it." Muhammad said: "Even if it is a fighter that cannot fly, there are many references."

Other channels, fighters that cannot fly, Muhammad's words are profound.

Tujida certainly knows that Muhammad is talking about Iran.

The Iran-Iraq War is a war in which it is hard to say who is just. There are reasons for belief and reasons for seeking regional hegemony. At the same time, these two countries are both rich oil-producing countries in the Middle East.

At the same time, the Eastern countries took a business attitude and did not offend anyone on either side. No matter who came to buy weapons, they were warmly welcomed. As a result, in the 1980s, when the economy was adjusted, many military factories began to transform. Only the military factories related to Iran and Iraq were constantly processing and manufacturing weapons day and night. Even in the reception of the military factory, the arms buyers from Iran and Iraq would live next door and urge them to deliver the goods quickly.

With the shortage of spare parts, Iran has fewer and fewer Tomcats that can take off. They must be very willing to exchange a Tomcat that can no longer take off with Eastern countries, such as replacing it with a few J-7s.

In such a formal occasion, Muhammad still spoke in English. After the translator relayed it to the technicians present, Tujida was shocked in his heart.

Indeed, this is a good idea!

The host of the meeting was still Nur-Khan, but the protagonist of the meeting gradually became Muhammad. Muhammad had been looking forward to this opportunity for a long time, and he was fully prepared.

"In fact, it is better to study the subsystems, such as avionics and engines, rather than the whole aircraft." Muhammad continued, "We are willing to make progress together with our friends in these areas."

Avionics, engines! Everyone opened their eyes wide.
