    Also looking at the price tag of 9.98 million US dollars was Merlinz. After an unknown period of time, he opened his eyes again and looked at the JJJ 7max advanced trainer aircraft under the spotlight that seemed to have a conventional layout, but in fact there was no part of it that fell into the conventional category.  , and then stared at the price tag again.

    The look of disbelief on his face could not be controlled, and it was involuntarily covered in freckles on his face.

    Despite this, Merlinz still couldn¡¯t believe what he saw in front of him. He couldn¡¯t help rubbing his eyes with his hands. He couldn¡¯t understand why the JJ-7MAX, which was so comparable to a light combat aircraft, was only priced at US$9.98 million.

    There is no way. In fact, in addition to the huge $9.98 million, the brand on the front of the aircraft also has a series of performance introductions.

    The length is 12.21 meters.

    The wingspan is 8.94 meters.

    ? 4.56 meters high.

    Wing area: 25.27 square meters.

    Empty weight: 5623 kg.

    Maximum take-off weight: 9536 kg

    Equipped with a turbojet-13 engine.

    Normal thrust is 4.3 tons.

    The afterburner thrust is 6.4 tons.

    The maximum flight speed is Mach 1.2.

    The maximum range is 1,200 kilometers.

    The plug-in weight is 2.6 tons.

    The practical ceiling is 16,000 meters.

    Limit overload: negative 2g to positive 8g.

    ??Rolling speed: 268 degrees per second.

    Maximum turning rate: 26 degrees (instantaneous) or 22 degrees (continuous)

    ??Takeoff roll distance: 322 meters.

    Landing roll distance: 586 meters.

    Judging from the data and actual real aircraft, the JJ 7MAX is not big. At best, it is only two-thirds of the F-16, one-half of the F-15, and at most, it is the F-5 that has been eliminated by the US military.  level.

    However, the JJ-7MAX is not big in size, but its performance is not bad at all. The other two factors are roll speed and maximum turning rate, which are the two most testing mid- and low-altitude maneuverability indicators of third-generation aircraft. The J-Jiao-7MAX and F-16  There is almost no difference. In other words, the JJ-7MAX is no less than the F-16 in terms of subsonic maneuverability at medium and low altitudes, and far exceeds other advanced trainer aircraft of the same level.

    The problem is that this is not a performance on paper, but a real existence that can be fully realized. After all, although the edge wing and the double delta wing are complex, they have unique and excellent performance in subsonic speeds at medium and low altitudes, combined with the full motion level  The lift body structure integrated with the tail and wing body has the maneuverability of the F-16, which is a high probability event.

    The only thing missing may be the engine, the turbojet-13, which is obviously a Chinese-made aeroengine with an afterburner thrust of only 6.4 tons. It is only a turbojet and not a turbofan, so it is obviously lacking in power.

    Because of this, the excellent aerodynamic design of the JJ 7max has not reached its true potential. If it is equipped with a 6-ton turbofan in the future, the JJ 7max will make a qualitative leap. By then, it will be equipped with advanced avionics and  As for the fire control radar, the JJ-7MAX can compete with the F-16 and Mirage 2000 in the sky.

    But then again, by then the JJ-7max will not be a training aircraft but a real fighter aircraft. Therefore, at this moment, the J-Jiao-7max as a trainer aircraft uses the turbojet-13. There is nothing wrong with it. After all, it is a trainer.  The biggest mission attribute of the aircraft is to train pilots. From this aspect, the current configuration of the JJ-7MAX can completely surpass the international advanced trainer aircraft.

    ??Including the training aircraft project led by Merlinz.

    If Maleshevsky was shocked when he saw the Annihilation 7max, then Merlinz could only describe it as despair.

    The reason is very simple. The training aircraft project that Merlinz is in charge of is not the official main equipment model of the US military, but a discontinued project that was killed by the US military a few years ago.

    That is, the T-46 trainer aircraft that was prepared to replace the T-37c intermediate trainer aircraft currently in service in the US military.

    At that time, the US military did seriously consider replacing the T-37C intermediate trainer aircraft, so Merlinz, who was working for Fairchild Aviation Manufacturing Company at the time, participated in the development of the T-46 trainer aircraft.

    After struggling for two or three years, the prototype successfully flew, but the budget was seriously overrun. In addition, the US military re-evaluated and found that the T-37C intermediate trainer aircraft could last for more than ten years after being upgraded. It was not cost-effective to purchase new aircraft, so it was directly  The T-46 trainer aircraft was chopped down.

    Fairchild Aviation Manufacturing Company, which originally expected to make a lot of money from its T-46 trainer aircraft, did not expect that it shot itself in the foot. Instead of making any money, it suffered losses to the point of vomiting blood and had to apply for insolvency.  Bankruptcy.

    At this time, McDonnell Douglas valued Fairchild Aerospace Manufacturing Company's technical strength in aerospace. You must know that in addition to aircraft, Fairchild is also responsible for NASA's starry sky probe radio antennas, collective shells, and launch vehicle secondary liquid oxygen irrigation and other components.  Processing and manufacturing work.

      It happened that McDonnell Douglas was responsible for the upgrade of the US Air Force's strategic ballistic missiles at the time and needed to enhance its technical strength in this area, so it took over Fairchild Aviation Manufacturing Company with a wave of its hand.

    Then there was a drastic reorganization. Fairchild Aviation Manufacturing Company was retained and nominally became a subsidiary of McDonnell Douglas. You can also use the name of McDonnell Douglas when doing business. It looks like you can enjoy the shade against the big tree. The situation should be  It is better than before, but in fact, compared with the previous one, the reorganized Fairchild Aviation Manufacturing Company is in the sky and on the ground.

    Because McDonnell Douglas focuses on the aerospace sector, the purpose of the reorganization is to cut out the aerospace sector as a whole, integrate it into the mainstream McDonnell Douglas system, and care for it like a grandson.

    McDonnell Douglas looked down upon the rest of the airline business and treated it like a stepmother, setting up a subsidiary company and letting it fend for itself.

    Because of this, although Fairchild can draw on some resources from McDonnell Douglas, they are very limited. At some point, McDonnell Douglas even wished Fairchild would collapse quickly so that it would not have to pay so much salary and insurance every month.  , which can save some costs.

    But as a shareholder and executive of Fairchild, Merlinz naturally does not want to see his own industry collapse like this. If McDonnell Douglas cannot help, he can only rely on himself. Now that the US military has disbanded the T-46, it does not mean that the world  There is no need to go to other countries. After all, as an alternative model to the T-37c intermediate trainer aircraft, it still has many merits.

    For example, its initial supersonic flight capability is not comparable to that of ordinary trainer aircraft.

    Realizing this, Merlinz quickly changed his mind and began to promote his T-46 trainer aircraft all over the world. Not to mention that someone actually took the bait, and this country was none other than Japan.

    However, Japan did not simply take a fancy to the performance of the T-46, but took aim at Merlinz's favorable technology transfer conditions. So after paying a large sum of patent fees and production line purchases, Japan worked hard for several years and finally created  The "purely domestically produced" T-3 intermediate trainer aircraft.

    Merlinz, who made a lot of money from the Japanese, not only allowed the self-defeating Fairchild Company to survive, but also got inspiration from this transaction, that is, it can use the T-46 trainer aircraft to earn patents or technology  The cost of exporting, based on this idea, after learning about Thailand's tender for trainer aircraft, Merlinz brought his newly formed team over, preparing to export their so-called "American technology" without reservation!
