Chapter 1682

Prince Salman was really angry. It took a lot of effort to get an aircraft arm for the aviation product production line he was thinking about.

This can only be obtained after paying huge transfer fees and extremely harsh additional conditions.

But ATZ and Mansour not only got it easily, but more importantly, there were no additional conditions.

That's all. The most irritating thing is that Mansour was given the preferential treatment of construction and delivery first and then payment of the balance, which made Prince Salman jealous and angry.

TMD, how nice it would be to replace Mansour with yourself..

But he also knew that he couldn't replace it at all. Distinguishing between the two practical exercises was a complete offense to Zhuang Jianye, the leader of China's take-off.

Especially for the second time, Prince Salman was more or less playing with Chinese take-off products.

After all, as the pillar aircraft of Saudi Arabia's territorial air defense in the next 20 years, Prince Salman wants to show the princes and nobles of other Gulf countries that Saudi Arabia with "typhoon" fighters is really old.

So even without this secret exhibition, Prince Salman will benefit from holding one in the relevant units of joint training in the United Arab Emirates.

As a result, Zhuang jianyemao rushed in. Prince Salman looked, well, yes, it's as big as a chicken. The cow of the "typhoon" fighter should be able to scare the little monkeys around the bay into sweat.

Prince Salman did not expect that the "typhoon" fighter, which he had high hopes for, not only lost, but also lost miserably.

So that Prince Salman, who was prepared to deter other Gulf countries, felt that stealing chickens could not erode rice. In particular, if Kuwait obtained the "loyal wingman" production line and cooperated with the purchased jnb-17c senior trainer, would the vast airspace of Saudi Arabia become the back garden for Kuwait fighters to come and go whenever they wanted?

So the more Prince Salman wants to be angry, the more angry he is, the more he can't attack in front of many princes and nobles, because in that case, people will think that he Salman can't afford to lose and lose his Royal Highness's style.

But when he came out of the command and control center, Salman didn't have so many concerns. His Falcon like eyes stared directly at Hamilton behind him. His anger for a long time finally turned into a gnashing of teeth: "I need a reasonable explanation."

Give me an explanation? I still need an explanation!

Hamilton could make complaints about it, but he could not reveal it. After all, Prince Salman was his nominal customer. He must always respect one or two. So Hamilton's face was full of smiling gentlemen. Sincerely said: "the key is the pilot's mistake. No one thought they didn't have air-to-air combat bombs. Otherwise, only the combination of trainer and UAV can't defeat the 'typhoon' fighter..."

At the beginning of the speech, Hamilton made a long speech along this reason, and the central idea is one, that is, the "typhoon" fighter is not only good-looking, but also particularly easy to use. It can not be the fault of the "typhoon" fighter, and it will never be the fault of the "typhoon" fighter.

It's also a pilot's mistake. It has nothing to do with the Typhoon fighter!

Is Hamilton right?

Theoretically speaking, there is still some truth, because the two "typhoon" fighters participating in the actual combat drill really did not hang short-range air-to-air combat bombs.

After all, the British hope to show their "meteor" medium range air-to-air missiles in this exercise, so each aircraft is equipped with four "meteor" missiles and two "Mika" missiles.

The problem lies in the Mika air-to-air missile.

Because there are two models of this legal missile, one is the medium range missile guided by active radar; The other is the infrared guided fighting bomb model.

At that time, the British commander felt that the greatest advantage of the "typhoon" fighter was its medium-range interception ability. Otherwise, how could it replace the "gale" fighter and become the patron saint of the European sky?

Therefore, the uniform medium range bombs can not only enhance the force of "typhoon" fighters, but also let these Gulf bumpkins know what the European version of BVR air combat is.

But who could have thought that China's take-off products did not talk about martial ethics. They not only released interference and provided false models to the "typhoon" fighters, but also took advantage of the fact that the "typhoon" fighters were not equipped with short-range combat bombs to directly rush up to play with bayonets in the air, and suddenly beat the "typhoon" fighters so that they didn't even know their parents.

But the problem is that Hamilton's reason is right, but it is only a superficial potential reason. The fundamental things have not been mentioned. It is obvious that the "typhoon" fighter alone is unable to deal with the future air combat mode that may appear on the battlefield.

The key is that the exhausted "typhoon" fighter is a dish in the eyes of the opponent. When you want to eat, it is not up to the "typhoon" fighter to decide.

This is not a generation gap in technology, but a gap in the whole concept.

Just like the confrontation between German armored forces and British and French coalition forces in the early stage of World War II, it is not the strength of equipment and training, but who is better in combat concept.

Hamilton, who can sit as the senior vice president of Defense Department of British bea systems, doesn't know the essential reason?

Of course, I know that even for this reason, I have complained more than once about the restrictions imposed by Europe on some countries on defense products. Now it is a "loyal wingman", will there be a "loyal wingman" in the future? "Loyal wingman"?

As the so-called all-in-one, as long as the construction of communication system, avionics system, detection system, data link system and electronic countermeasure system can be completed on the "loyal wingman", it can be extended.

Through the construction of these systems, the original high-end equipment overlooking some countries in Europe will no longer be competitive, or even be overtaken.

At that time, people don't like your things. Don't say you want to sell them at a good price. Even if you give them to each other for nothing, they may not want them.

At that time, the loss will be the defense enterprises of the whole Europe.

Of course, some people will say that Europe can increase investment and continue research and development.

The problem is that today's Europe, because of the end of the cold war, is completely a rhythm of putting knives and guns into storage, herding horses and mountains, and turning swords into plows. National defense began to be cut continuously, and then used to fill the big hole in the growing welfare of the people.

So that the R & D expenses originally belonging to defense enterprises have been cut, so that these European defense enterprises have to live with their old capital.

At this time, he didn't want to clear the old goods and collect funds in order to achieve his advantageous position. He actually chose to block the country and physically isolate himself from the world's No. 1 defense importer. Hamilton wanted to ask those EU policymakers whether their heads were full of shit!
