    Zubair Air Base in southern Iraq.  ¡¾Íø¡¿(First published.)

    Production here has always been in progress. Now, the Mirage 4000 fighter jets being produced on the production line are exported to Saudi Arabia.

    Now, the Iraqi Air Force is gradually replacing Mirage 4000 fighters. The main force on the front line already has more than fifty fighters. The urgent demand of the Iraqi Air Force has been reduced, and it can finally be produced for Saudi Arabia.

    The Mirage 4000 exported to Saudi Arabia uses the same equipment as Iraq, especially the improved fire control system, which can mount Iraq's own sky flash missiles.

    After acquiring the Sky Flash production line from the UK, Iraq was finally able to produce this medium-range air-to-air missile on its own. During the war, no matter how many missiles it introduced, it was not enough. It simply could not withstand the huge war consumption. Only itself could  Production can solve the final problem.  Although some of the most critical electronic components of the seeker still need to be imported from aerospace companies.  However, even during the war, with the relationship between Osun and the shares they hold in the aerospace company, these parts can still be obtained. Moreover, Iraq is now investing funds to jointly develop active sky flashes with Sweden.  The current production line can be improved at any time to produce such active air-to-air missiles.  Moreover, because all the technology is shared with Sweden, by then, the most critical seeker of the missile will also be produced in Iraq, and Iraq can fully produce this missile.

    As for short-range missiles, Iraq¡¯s self-produced fighter planes use the R-73 large off-axis combat missile imported from the Soviet Union and equipped with a helmet sight.  This kind of missile will give the Mirage 4000 unrivaled combat effectiveness in close combat.  However, due to authorization issues and to prevent leaks, the Saudi Mirage 4000 was not exported to Saudi Arabia.  What is mounted is the US-made Sidewinder short-range missile. Due to the relationship between Saudi Arabia and the United States, new short-range missiles can be mounted.

    ??Cooperate with this missile of the Soviet Union.  {This chapter Ruhuashou. Fight .} Improving the fire control system allowed Iraq's own scientific researchers to rack their brains and solve various problems.  Now Iraq already has certain scientific research strength.

    After solving these problems, not only the newly-produced personal fighter aircraft have the ability to use these missiles, but also the early models that were shipped first were also returned to the factory for modification and have the same combat capabilities.

    The sky is clear, which is perfect weather for flying.

    On the runway of Zubair Aviation Base, a newly manufactured Mirage 4000 is preparing for a test flight.

    ¡°President Qusay, you are welcome to come here for inspection.¡± said the person in charge of the Iraqi side at the base.

    Kusai is in his spare time.  It is better to take time to inspect these industrial bases of his own. Regarding the Air Force, Kusai has always been in charge.

    Seeing the busy scene here every day, Kusai felt a sense of fulfillment.  Before the arrival of the Su-27, the Mirage 4000 was definitely the ace fighter in the Middle East and the guardian of the skies in Iraq that rivaled the US-made fighters.

    "How is production going now?" Qusay asked.

    ¡°We have always been producing according to the maximum production capacity, and at the same time we are striving to increase our proportion of localization. Now, 70% of this kind of aircraft can be produced by us independently.¡± The person in charge said.

    It is absolutely impossible to produce independently in a separate area. Now, the Mirage 4000¡¯s avionics and various equipment in the cockpit have to be imported from France. Iraq¡¯s self-produced parts are mainly airframes, engines and other components.

    Kusai was very satisfied. After inspecting the area, he came to the F-20 production line next to him. The production here was also proceeding in an orderly manner.

    Before the arrival of the 1990s, the main force of the Iraqi Air Force was a high-low combination of Mirage 4000 and F-20. The Mirage 4000 was used to seize air supremacy, while the F-20 was used to carry out precision strikes. The two fighters cooperated to achieve low-intensity  In certain areas, the F-20 can also be used to carry out the task of seizing air supremacy. This is Kusai's arrangement for the Air Force.

    At the same time, the modified Su-25 attack aircraft imported from the Soviet Union are mainly used for ground attacks.

    The main MiG-21s and MiG-23s previously equipped by Iraq will gradually fade out of the Iraqi Air Force. These second-generation aircraft can no longer undertake the tasks that the Iraqi Air Force needs to undertake. In addition to some of them being mothballed, most of them will be  After renovation, it was exported to brother countries in Africa and continued to exert its remaining heat.

    The other Mirage F1s and MiG-25s will continue to serve in the Iraqi Air Force until they reach the end of their lifespan and will be retired.

    The other type, the Super 7 fighter, is Iraq's main foreign trade aircraft. Here, Qusay once again saw the busy Iraqi and Chengdu Aircraft staff.

    The current Super Seven is still produced in PakistanIt uses the same American avionics as the F-20. In the early stage, more than a dozen aircraft were modified together with American personnel. In the later period, all the aircraft were modified by Iraqi and Chengdu personnel themselves.  During domestic production, the space has been reserved in advance.

    Even so, the modification is very troublesome. Chengdu Aircraft went to Chengdu Aircraft Co., Ltd. several times to complete all modifications. However, the United States refused and insisted on carrying out modifications in Iraq in accordance with the original agreement.

    Therefore, these avionics are installed under the supervision of American technical personnel.

    "There are currently a total of six Super Seven fighters left. By the end of this year, we will be able to complete the modifications." Coming to an office in the factory, engineer Faruq said.

    Farooq has been fully responsible for the F-20 fighter aircraft, and is also responsible for the modification task of the Super 7.

    "We hope that our self-produced avionics can be developed by that time, so that we can continue to produce it for countries such as Syria." Farooq continued.

    The modification of the Super 7 was suspended for a period of time after the stalemate in relations with the United States last year. Otherwise, all the modification tasks have been completed now. Iraq has also made tens of thousands of dollars in this project. This is a good start.  .

    What they need to wait for is the new avionics jointly developed. In this regard, Iraq has also made a lot of investments, including purchasing various mature subsystems from the West.

    Thinking of this, Kusai said to Xiao Dangsheng, the person in charge of Chengdu Aircraft next to him: "To what extent has our avionics system been developed at Chengdu Aircraft?"

    Although Kusai had already received the report from Chengdu Aircraft, he still wanted to ask this young man personally. This man is an experienced engineer at Chengdu Aircraft, mainly responsible for avionics. Some time ago,  , and even returned to China to attend a meeting at Chengdu Aircraft.

    Xiao Dangsheng thought of the discussion he participated in after returning to China. Although he could not reveal too much due to the principle of confidentiality, he still said: "Our research and development has entered the final stage using some electronic components imported from the West. However,  The final time is still uncertain, because it is our first time to write the software inside, and we may encounter many unexpected problems. We have not been able to reversely decipher the coding in the prototype, and can only imitate it based on its functions."

    In terms of avionics, including the key fire control system, software is also a very important aspect.

    "I hope you can increase the development progress and fully promote the process of our self-developed avionics." Kusai said.  He had already communicated these words to the team staying in Chengdu in Iraq.

    Kusai¡¯s words of encouragement were just words of encouragement. Who would have thought that after he finished speaking, he heard Xiao Dangsheng ask: ¡°President Kusai, I have always had a question.¡±

    "Say it." Kusai said. He knew that in Chengfei, this Xiao Dangsheng was an alternative and someone who dared to speak. His questions could represent certain issues.

    "Why did you participate in the JH-7 project of the 603 Institute?"

    JH-7, this reminded Kusai that he sent more than 50 technical personnel to the Xi'an Aircraft Design Institute to participate in the research and development of this military aircraft. It has been more than two years now.

    Due to the addition of Iraqi funds and personnel, the development of this fighter-bomber was carried out rapidly. This fighter-bomber project, which was initiated in the 1970s, experienced several turmoils, especially the impact of the country's reduction in military expenditures, and its development was slow until  After Iraq entered, within just a few years, the comprehensive detailed design phase was completed, and the first prototype was being prepared.

    Why join this project?  Qusay naturally knew it very well, because Iraq needed a low-cost fighter-bomber!  The JH-7 is used to attack the sea. It has a long range, great power, large bomb load, and is equipped with various precision guidance weapons. It is another choice for the Iraqi Air Force.

    And more importantly, by participating in the development of this fighter aircraft, Iraqi aircraft designers have gone through the entire process of developing an aircraft, which is of great benefit to cultivating Iraq's own R&D team.  The JH-7 fully adopts computer-aided design and uses a simulated fly-by-wire operating system. These will allow Iraqi designers to understand the system engineering of aircraft development and bring many advantages.

    Until now, Iraq has only introduced production lines for fighter aircraft, but it is completely blank in the research and development of fighter aircraft.

    How should you answer this person¡¯s question?  Tell him, are you going to learn from a master?

    However, the engineer was indeed a bit naive when he asked this. Qusay said: "We in Iraq and your country have a profound friendship. We are helping your country complete the development of fighter jets, and we are also helping ourselves."

    Help ourselvesDo you have mature aircraft designers, or are you helping yourself by helping them?  There can be a lot of understanding here, and Kusai deliberately made it very vague.

    "If our Chengdu Aircraft Corporation has a development project for a new medium-sized fighter jet, would you like to participate?" Xiao Dangsheng suddenly added.
