    The orange-red sunset dyed the black eagle into gold, and the J-1I galloping in the half-burned sky was undoubtedly breathtakingly beautiful.  A photojournalist from the state media picked up a telephoto lens and took a few shots. He even had the names of these pictures in his mind - Huangsha wears golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be returned until it is broken.

    Although this verification aircraft is not a Black Hawk that has truly reached combat status, but was created by Qi Yiming to deceive people, it still has basic flight performance and can perform various dazzling maneuvers in the air.  .  Especially with its unique forward-swept wing stealth appearance, it makes people feel handsome and domineering.

    There is no doubt that the emergence of the Black Hawk demonstrator is like a heavy bomb hitting the world's military circles.  For a time, not only the authoritative military intelligence magazines, but also major mainstream media around the world, reported on the fourth-generation fighter aircraft (American Standard) launched by China. Many experts also appeared to introduce and explain to people that such a fighter aircraft has  What an earth-shaking and revolutionary improvement, what advantages it has over the current mainstream second and third generation fighters.

    "These so-called experts don't really fully understand stealth fighters. Most of the information they got was what the host read out. However, the 6 stealth fighters led by China have also become the standard for people to define a new generation of fighters.  This is what Qi Yiming hopes to see. Being the first to establish rules will give people a sense of superiority and help improve the image of Made in China, not just military products.

    The misleading effect of Qi Yiming's hope soon appeared. Whether it was Northrop or McDonnell Douglas and other companies, they all set up working groups to study the fourth-generation fighter launched by China in detail, hoping that  Get useful experience from it to facilitate their ATPl+ plan.  This is not the first time that the United States has done something like this. In terms of creativity, the United States is not actually the best, but Americans are good at perfecting something and striving for excellence.  Such as catapults, L technology, etc., they all obtained them from other countries and then carried them forward.

    ¡° Later generations of the United States like to point at China and criticize copycats, but in fact they have done the same thing many times.  The reason why it is responsible for China is that it has a mentality of "only state officials are allowed to set fires, but the people are not allowed to light lamps". The United States is afraid that China will use the same method to develop better and newer weapons or other products to surpass its leading position.

    But at this time, if the United States comes across something worth learning from, it is very willing to plagiarize it.  At least after Grumman saw China's Black Hawk, he ran to Lockheed and asked them if they wanted to change the design and use a forward-swept wing. Grumman had a series of experience with 2 forward-swept wings and  Data, can be sold to Lockheed cheaply.

    U.S. officials also covet China's experience in developing fourth-generation fighters. Now the United States has formed an illusion that China has great advantages in developing stealth fighters, including the Q-7 J-LL. China is very successful in this project.  We have come a long way.  Therefore, not long after the Tianjin International Defense Exhibition ended, the U.S. Department of Defense proposed an exchange plan with China, hoping that China would open a visit to the Black Hawk fighter jets.  The purpose is self-evident. There must be engineers who are following the generals here, taking this opportunity to steal the army.

    This is something to say later. At this time, the defense exhibition attracted more attention due to the emergence of the Black Hawk, and was also pushed to a higher climax.  During the following exhibition period, some deals began to be concluded and were gradually disclosed.

    First, Algeria signed an agreement with XAC and pLA to purchase 10 second-hand Tian A fighter-bombers at a very affordable price, each selling for only US$660,000. In addition to the purchase of ground weapons and air-to-air missile weapon systems, the total contract value  For US$21 billion, it is considered the first transaction reached by a Chinese company at this exhibition.  Then Colombia ordered two straight light utility helicopters, as well as some army armored vehicles and engineering vehicles from China, with a total contract of US$4.06 million.

    What is more surprising is that Italy ordered 4 J-V Skua fighter jets from China to be used on its recently commissioned USS Garibaldi aircraft carrier. Previously, Italy hoped to purchase the American-RH, but in recent years, the mainstream  Critics believe that the FB Skua is more mature in design than the -B, especially in air combat, as the -B is difficult to compete with the FB.  After actual inspection, the Italian military also came to the same conclusion, believing that for an aircraft carrier-based aircraft, the bomb load capacity of the two B fighters is a bit terrible). However, to perform the task of fleet air defense,  Obviously FB has better maneuverability and air combat capabilities.

    Although the number purchased by Italy is relatively small, only 4, if nothing unexpected happens, after a period of operation, Italy will purchase the next batch of more Skua fighters.

    China¡¯s weapons are rarely exported to developed countries, and exporting Skua fighter jets to Italy can be considered a very good advertising effect.

    In addition, China has also conducted a lot of scattered transactions, but the amounts are not particularly large.  The largest orders are all from Qi Yiming¡¯s ¡°relationship countries¡±.  The defense budget of the Nanyang Republic in 193 reached US$600 million, which was also attributed to the same economic situation as China.The rise of Nanyang Republic has made the Nanyang Republic's finances more abundant.  Qi Yiming estimated that with the integration of more than one million square kilometers of land and abundant resources, coupled with the continuous influx of new immigrants with labor skills from China, the Nanyang Republic has the potential to become one of the top ten economies in the world.

    Originally, the Nanyang Republic also had a large amount of weapons and equipment, which Qi Yiming left there during the war. However, if a country's army wants to develop healthily, it is necessary to continuously build and increase it.  At this exhibition, the Nanyang National Defense Force mainly purchased from China 20 urban warfare upgraded VT-IA main battle tanks, 20 NIP infantry fighting vehicles, 48 ??M9 (Dongfeng-15) tactical missiles, 18 Z-6  The Hunjianglong heavy-duty helicopter, a submarine support ship and other scattered equipment will be delivered in three years, with a total value of B600 million.

    The three Eastern European countries defeated by Qi Yiming also showed signs of abandoning Soviet-style equipment and using Chinese-style equipment at this exhibition.  Yugoslavia adopted a cooperative approach. Norinco opened branches and factories in Yugoslavia to produce a series of army vehicles such as VT-IA for Yugoslavia and other European customers. Yugoslavia also gave up its own M84 tanks and began to equip VT-IA.  Main battle tank.  Vodochody, a well-known domestic aviation company in Czechoslovakia, announced that it has reached a cooperation with AVIC. AVIC will inject capital into Vodochody and hold 3% of its shares. The company will work with AVIC to develop the L3 Albatross training aircraft.  New Chinese teaching machine.  In addition, Czechoslovakia ordered almost a complete set of army equipment from China, euphemistically calling it "modernizing military equipment," but most of these were paid in the form of loans from China.  Romania is similar. China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation acquired a large shipyard in Romania to target the European market.  Furthermore, Romania is also trying to replace an army mechanized brigade with Chinese equipment, still paying for it with a loan.

    This is all on the surface, but privately, these three Eastern European countries will send their crude goods such as T2 and BNP-l to the crushing crane at Base No. 5 in Yugoslavia, and then sell them at a low price  If replaced by similar weapons made in China, Qi Yiming would have to make these weapons a little older, even if they are actually new, because they have to be sold as second-hand goods from China.

    What deserves more attention is that the above three countries have all purchased Rm small-caliber automatic rifles produced in China. Some are Type 21, some are CP26, and some are Type 3 automatic rifles that were just finalized this year (actually E Company¡¯s 8ARL Rm.  It seems that they are determined to abandon the Soviet system and switch to the Chinese system.

    In addition to the host China, the United States, France, the United Kingdom, Germany and other countries also have some harvests. The United States has also conducted several transactions with a total amount of 2B billion, second only to China's transaction volume. South Korea, Turkey and other countries have purchased products from the United States.  The 70 Black Hawk helicopter, I wonder if it is influenced by the Chinese Black Hawk fighter The 70 is actually BaHak and the Black Hawk fighter is BaFae, which are two different creatures)

    The other two more interesting deals are that Saudi Arabia will use 100 EB fighter bombers that it has taken over not long ago, at an additional cost of US$600,000 each, and replace them all with new F9 Shadow Leopard fighters.  This deal seems confusing, but it was actually proposed to Saudi Arabia by Qi Yiming. It is a complete money fraud.  He took these EBs to the Red Alert maintenance shop and changed them to F9 without much trouble, and Saudi Arabia also gave him 600 million US dollars for free.  Saudi Arabia is happy to have used a non-depreciation price plus some money to exchange for new and stronger fighters.

    This transaction has not been announced. It was completed privately, but there will be some clues left. The outside world may only think that it is a return to the factory for overhaul or something.  From this, Saudi Arabia will be able to possess a 20-scale fighter jet, which will basically form the ability to overwhelm Israel.

    Another deal is more interesting. Pakistan Railway also benefited from this exhibition. With the full support of China, they have almost mastered the production of second-generation fighter jets (named by Pakistan), which is another dimension.  Cai Guoqing in the air of the J-11.  For the economic situation of minibuses, they cannot afford to support large-scale B6 and Fl fleets, so equipping some J-s is a good choice.  The very ambitious minibuses not only want to equip themselves, but also use them for promotion. They have kept the price very low, with the unit price of only 4.5 million US dollars, which is very attractive.

    Iran, which is also seeking to expand its air force, does not have the money to equip too many FIs, which are less than half the Fl but are also of Chinese origin - which makes the Iranians have some interest, thinking that maybe they can buy good things at low prices this time.  So Iran purchased a fighter jet from Pakistan. In order to reach this deal, Pakistan even lowered the price again. The total contract value was only US$100 million, which made Qi Yiming doubt whether they would lose money and make a profit.
