Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

Director Duan frowned.

Driven by the 'catfish' effect of Factory 960, the ground weapon systems had undergone earth-shattering changes. They began to compete, bid, and embark on the path of a market economy.

However, the aviation industry was not doing well.

Many people had a lot of complaints: The ground weapon industry can produce a weapon in a few months with less investment. Can it be compared with our aviation industry? It often takes three to five years, or even more than a decade, to develop an advanced engine! The funds we need to invest are also huge. Without the support of the state, nothing can be achieved!

The market economy approach is not suitable for us.

Anyway, no one competes with each other. Isn't it good to be harmonious like before? Now that Factory 960 has arrived, they are being forced to get involved! They are uncomfortable, how can they accept it?

Director Duan knew that this question was impossible to answer. His mind was racing, and his eyes were looking around. When he saw Old Lin sitting at the back, he suddenly had an idea.

Old Lin, your air force is a major customer of our aviation industry. Isn't it said that the customer is God now? Why don't you tell us your opinion?

Director Duan began to pass the buck.

Qin Yang was brought in by Old Lin. He was criticizing everything, and it seemed like he was about to incur public wrath. If Director Duan stood on Qin Yang's side, he might not be able to carry out his work in the future. Now, the culprit should be held accountable, and Old Lin should be the one to offend people!

Anyway, even if Old Lin scolds everyone present, they have to listen.

Old Duan, look at your courage! Okay, I will say a few words on behalf of the air force." Old Lin rolled his eyes at him: "Our domestic aviation industry is too backward, which has seriously affected our use. This time, the Indian MiG-25 invaded our airspace. At critical moments, we can't rely on our own fighter jets!

The downing of the MiG-25 was talked about by many, but how it was shot down was not clear to everyone. It was simply a mystery. Many people were guessing, and only the J-8 could do such a thing. But after hearing Qin Yang's words, everyone knew they were wrong.

If it wasn't the J-8, then what fighter jet was it?

Old Lin, how did the air force shoot down the MiG-25 this time?" Li Ming asked.

This is classified, but the J-8 really disappointed us." Old Lin said: "After so long of development, and even with the nose of the MiG-23 as a reference, they still can't modify the J-8. If the nose of the J-8 is modified, we can put in advanced airborne radar and use our own domestically produced weapons to shoot down the MiG-25!

Old Lin, modifying the nose is not that simple. We have tried our best.

Not that simple? Is it because the technical requirements are too high, or is your technical strength too poor? If you can't complete it, then how about we let other units modify it?" Qin Yang said: "Is Old Song here? Old Song, if your Institute 611 takes over the task of modifying the nose of the J-8, how long will it take?

Old Song was a little embarrassed. You, Qin Yang, want to criticize Institute 601, which I am happy to see, but don't drag me into the battlefield!

Old Song, the design concept of the J-8 fighter jet was proposed by you when you were the director of the aerodynamic room at Institute 601. Now, if it is handed over to your Institute 611, how much time will you need?" Old Lin asked.

Speaking of the J-8 fighter jet, many people know that this is the only self-developed fighter jet that Shen Fei has been working on for decades, and it is only an enlarged version of the J-7 with two engines. However, few people know that the design plan of this fighter jet was actually proposed by Old Song, an interceptor developed based on the actual domestic level.

Old Lin, we will strive to complete the improvement within this year." Li Ming quickly stated: "However, we also hope that relevant units can provide us with advanced radar. Without qualified radar, even if there is a big nose, it is useless.

As long as your plane is developed, we can install the radar on it." Qin Yang said.

That's right, Factory 960 is also developing airborne radar. We believe in their strength." Director Duan quickly smoothed things over: "The addition of Factory 960 is a great encouragement to our domestic aviation industry. There can be progress only with competition. President Qin, our meeting is almost over, do you want to go eat first?

Eat? Is there Moutai?" Qin Yang asked: "This year-end meeting should be a summary and commendation conference. We have to drink to celebrate.

Director Duan's mouth twitched. Moutai, you kid have money now, and you only recognize Moutai when you drink. Our aviation industry system is poor!

No? Forget it, let's have Erguotou then." Qin Yang said: "What kind of wine doesn't matter, the key is who you drink with.

Qin Yang was young, but he sat at the same table with a large group of leaders. He was with Director Duan, Old Lin, and others, drinking and chatting, while the expressions on the faces of the people at the other tables were different.

Come on, Old Mo, drink!" The person next to Mo Quanyong raised his glass.

Yeah, drink!" Mo Quanyong raised his glass and drank it all.

He was drinking in silence.

Next, a large inspection team will definitely be organized to go to Europe. Our Fangbei Company wants five places." Qin Yang said: "After this trip, we will be able to solve the air force's problem of medium-range radar-guided air-to-air missiles.

The first half of the sentence made Director Duan embarrassed. Fangbei Company is capable, but they can't ask for so many places! But after hearing the second half of the sentence, Director Duan became excited again: "You have a way to solve the problem of air-to-air missiles?

Qin Yang nodded.

How to solve it?

Technology sharing, joint research and development."

What?
