Chapter 2819: Niu Guo Aerospace's anxiety

Niu Guo, the headquarters of aerospace company.
Niu Guo is proud, and the same is true in aviation. Although Niu is now unable to undertake the task of developing new types of fighter aircraft, as the earliest manufacturer of jet aircraft, their accumulation of technology is quite profound.
Now, with the help of reform, aerospace company is radiating new vitality.
This reform is naturally privatization.
In the era before Iron Lady, most of the military industry was state-owned, resulting in inefficiency and overstaffing. After the Iron Lady came to power, she almost carried out privatization with paranoia, even to the point where people were criticized. .
The Aerospace Company was not immune. First, it was privatized by 50%, and then, now, it has become 100% privatized. As a private company, of course, it has to think more about its own future.
At this time, it was time to convene the board of directors. A crowd of people sat there with gloomy faces, only the smoke of cigars was constantly diffused in the meeting room.
"In other words, Hans State is really going to give up the cooperation on the Typhoon fighter? They don't even plan to reclaim the initial investment?" Old Harry, one of the directors, said with a gloomy face.
"That's about it." General Manager Wallop said.
"So, don't they care about compensation? According to our original agreement, if they withdraw halfway, they still need to pay a compensation?" Old Harry said.
"In theory, it is true, but if we speculate that there is no error, Hans State will not submit the agreement. They will definitely delay us."
No matter how perfect the agreement is, there will definitely be loopholes. For now, they are not withdrawing, just delaying. This is enough. In this case, they can still use two boats in case of Han. The project failed, and it is possible to come back and proceed with the typhoon project.
After all, the development of a fighter aircraft took a long time. If we optimistically estimate, it will take five years for their Typhoon fighter to be successfully developed. It will be delayed in the middle. Maybe, ten years will be considered less.
At that time, the whole world will be the world of stealth machines, right?
"In other words, we have no other way? This project, with a lot of investment, may eventually fail?"
It has now been changed to private ownership. Therefore, if their project fails, the company is afraid that its business will deteriorate, or even bankruptcy is possible. Of course, at that time, the government will definitely not see a large number of employees unemployed. Yes, it will definitely be allocated for assistance.
"I think that, on the one hand, we must go to Hans State to solemnly negotiate, hoping that they can see the prospect of self-research. After all, self-research can master the technology. How can MBB be reduced to the point of directly buying fighters." The veteran director began to analyze seriously: "On the other hand, we have to look for support from more countries, especially the air force. At this time, we can only find the air force to continue to invest funds, as long as the air force can Support our project, there is a chance of success."
Although the Air Force has expressed interest in this R&D project, the R&D funds are mainly from the company itself. Although there is also investment from the Air Force, it is too small. It used to be used in accordance with the joint cooperation of the Hans State. Suddenly there was a huge financial loophole. Now, I can only turn to the Air Force for help.
After all, the Air Force still plans to have more than 200 aircraft. Now it should invest more research and development funds.
"Okay, when the meeting is over, I will visit the Air Force." Volup said.
Although the aerospace company has a huge business, civil aircraft manufactures passenger aircraft, and even some parts of Airbus are produced. Military aircraft has a lot of proud achievements, and missiles, etc. That said, the Typhoon fighter jet project is also very important, which is the key to the development of the next two decades.
If the development of this fighter plane fails, then the follow-up models will be gone, and the aerospace company may turn to a gradual decline.
Wallop was under great pressure. When the meeting was over, he personally went to the Air Staff Headquarters and visited the Air Force Chief of Staff Brandt.
The Aerospace Corporation has a good relationship with the Air Force. In addition to the Secretary of Defense rank, the Air Force Staff is the highest leading body of the Air Force. Now, when sitting in the office of the Air Force Chief of Staff, Volup's face is heavy.
"Our aerospace company needs the support of the Air Force." Volup said to Brandt: "We are developing the third-generation typhoon that the Air Force urgently needs, but now, due to the unilateral betrayal of Hans State, our research and development funds are seriously insufficient. I hope the Air Force can give us more funding so that our research and development can proceed."
Brandt did not speak. He stood up and walked to the window. From here, you can see the busy traffic in the capital of Niu Country. It is now just the peak time for get off work.
His silent attitude made Brandt feel a little nervous.
What is the attitude of the Air Force?
"Then, how could the Hans betray? This project was not initiated by us and the Hans?" Finally, Brandt spoke.
"Because of the Han people, the Han people have deceived them. They launched a J31 project and attracted a lot of investment. Without their deceit, the Hans people would never betray us."
"Then, this J-31, why can it confuse them?" Brandt continued to ask.
"Because they claim that this is a stealth fighter, especially, there are also models of vertical take-off and landing fighters. It is clear that they are here to trouble us." Volup said.
One aircraft and three types, the first developed was the vertical take-off and landing fighter. This was clearly aimed at the sea harrier. With the vertical take-off and landing performance, the sea harrier still has orders. The current Han people want this The market has also been seized.
"So, do you think they are bragging, or are they really capable of developing success?"
Brag? The J-14 of the Han people has already been flying all over the sky. On this basis, the technology of the stealth machine is gradually mature, so it is not bragging to say that it can be successfully developed.
Volup suddenly turned pale, because he already knew what Brandt was thinking.
Why should the Air Force support their Typhoon fighter project? The position of the Air Force and theirs is different. What the Air Force needs is an aircraft that can meet their needs!
They spent a lot of money to research and develop early warning aircraft for fan hunting. As a result, the Air Force thought that the technology was too backward, and instead purchased the E-3 early warning aircraft. The precious funds of the Air Force were not wasted. Domestic industry, so it is equipped with chicken ribs? of course not!
And now, the Air Force is no longer optimistic about their aircraft!
