Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In this regard, the powerful Salman will never allow it, so he must implement the issue of introducing aviation manufacturing before 2010, using it as capital to help his father compete for the next crown prince, and of course to help himself.  Become the future king of Saudi Arabia.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that Salman has great ambitions, but when it comes to how to introduce it, he is confused.

    What is the aviation manufacturing industry?

    The lifeblood of developed countries in Europe and the United States!

    ¡°Take the UK as an example. Other industries have declined to such an extent, but the UK is desperately trying to keep Rolls-Royce, the global aero-engine giant.

    There is no way, the profit of this top-notch high-end industrial product is unimaginable. Just look at the British universal medical care, it is very fragrant.

    Saudi Arabia is rich through oil. Is it possible for it to be as wealthy as the UK?

    What's more, we don't know how long we can rely on oil. Not to mention that energy will eventually be exhausted. Even if it is not exhausted, a group of countries led by Europe are trying their best to develop renewable energy to replace fossil energy led by oil. Now  Maybe nothing can be seen yet, but there is no guarantee that it will not have a huge industrial impact on a country that is highly dependent on oil like Saudi Arabia in the future?

    Prince Salman saw this and strongly advocated that Saudi Arabia should focus on industrialization.

    The most obvious symbol of industrialization is high-end products. Aircraft, as the most glorious industrial product among them, was naturally selected by Prince Salman as the core industry in the first stage.

    It¡¯s just that the progress so far has not been smooth.

    Needless to say, the U.S. side, let alone the aircraft, does not even provide parts for the aircraft to Saudi Arabia. It only provides a lot of finished products, but Saudi Arabia needs to spend its own money to buy them.

    "It's like saying that you didn't get anything, but you got a lot of money."

    France in Europe has expressed its intention to cooperate with Prince Salman, but there is a prerequisite, which is to first purchase 48 "Rafale" fighter jets produced by Dassault and order 32 A380 passenger aircraft being developed by Airbus. In this way  France will push for European approval to produce a small sports glider affiliated with Airbus in Saudi Arabia.

    Although it is a little better than the open grab like the Americans, France's slap in the face really makes Salman very unhappy.

    Russia heard that Prince Salman wanted to engage in the aviation manufacturing industry, so he came over and recommended himself, allowing Prince Salman to choose from among the existing models in Russia. As long as he liked whichever one he liked, the production line would be moved directly to Saudi Arabia.

    There is a sense of d¨¦j¨¤ vu of a Russian girl on the bed, ready for you to take advantage of.

    However, if anyone is interested, it won¡¯t be long before they are sucked into this beautiful Russian femme fatale, because the prerequisite for Russia¡¯s generosity is to require Saudi Arabia to produce more oil and natural gas in the long term.  It can fluctuate with the implementation of Russia's energy policy.

    ??In other words, Russia wants to strangle Saudi Arabia¡¯s biggest lifeline for survival. How can Salman do this? So it can only let it go.

    Just when Salman was struggling to find a suitable vendor to introduce his own aviation manufacturing industry, the gentleman British gracefully appeared in front of Prince Salman and agreed in principle to sell the former British Aerospace Corporation, now bea Systems  The company's "Jet Stream" 31 small aircraft related technology and its production line were transferred to Saudi Arabia.

    But the premise is that it is hoped that Saudi Arabia can purchase the ef-2000 "Typhoon" fighter jet produced by bea systems.

    Prince Salman, who was worried that no one would sell anything to him, was immediately tempted when he heard the news. As long as he could be sold to him the aircraft production line and related technologies, not to mention buying any fighter jets, he would be happy to buy the entire UK.  .

    However, just when Prince Salman was happily about to sign a contract with the British, his aviation technical advisor and his friend since childhood, Mustafa Faisal poured cold water on him, that is, the British  The "Jetstream" 31 small aircraft provided by people was developed and produced in the 1960s. It has not been upgraded for many years. In many aspects, it no longer meets the current aviation safety standards. Even if you get the production line and technology, it will be a mess.  Scrap copper and iron are of no use, but will be used by the domestic opposition to attack Salman for wasting national funds.

    However, although Faisal rejected the "Jet Stream" 31 small aircraft, he did not deny the deal with the British. After all, there is no "Jet Stream" 31 small aircraft, and there is a "Jet Stream 41". In comparison,  Compared to the Type 31, the Type 41 is a deeply improved model that meets current aviation safety standards.

    "But the British side has a different attitude towards this. Saudi Arabia can obtain all the technology and production lines for the "Jet Stream" 31, which has been eliminated. The "Jet Stream" 41 does not have such good conditions."After all, the British company Bea Systems is still producing it. How could it be given to you, Saudi Arabia?

    But in order to sell its own "Typhoon" fighter jets, the British did not block everything. The overall technology and production line of the "Jet Stream" 41 aircraft cannot be given to Saudi Arabia, but such things as the vertical tail and horizontal tail  The production of general parts can still be done in Saudi Arabia.

    If it were an Airbus A series passenger aircraft, and Saudi Arabia was asked to produce some horizontal tails and vertical tails, Salman might be excited for a while. The total take-off weight of the "Jetstream" 41 is only 10 tons, so it would be given a horizontal tail.  And the production of vertical stabilizers, when Salman is a three-year-old child who is easily deceived?

    Of course, it would be fine if the "Jetstream" 41 was produced in large quantities. Salman tolerated it. The problem is that from the mass production of this model in the 1980s, to now, a total of less than 120 aircraft have been produced. On average, it only takes one year.  Less than 5 aircraft will be produced. With this production capacity, if it is really going to be implemented, why not make the opposition in Saudi Arabia laugh out loud?

    So the tough Prince Salman did not take a step back this time and directly placed a large order for the purchase of 32 "Typhoon" fighter jets with the British company Bea, on the condition that the entire "Jet Stream" 41 production line and related technologies were provided.

    Faced with Salman¡¯s large order and tough attitude, the British company Bea took a step back and agreed to increase the production of Jetstream 41 wings to Saudi Arabia.

    As one can imagine, the two sides reached a deadlock on this issue.

    To be honest, if there was a problem that could be solved with money, Prince Salman would have spent it on it. The problem is that some things cannot be solved with money, and to be honest, apart from money, the cards in Salman¡¯s hand are really nothing.  There is no other good way.

    Just when Salman was in a dilemma, another friend of his, Prince Abdullah II, came over and recommended China's Ascendas TNB-2 UAV production line to him.

    Prince Salman, who was worried that he had no bargaining chips, immediately lit up when he heard this. Doesn¡¯t he lack a trump card to bargain with the UK?  Isn't this just delivered? Do you, the British, sell the "Jet Stream" 41 production line?

    Not selling?  Well, I¡¯ll go buy one from China Tengfei!
