v2 Chapter 1638： Saab

The intention of the other party is already obvious, that is, they want Heiyun and Saab to cooperate in the field of third-generation aircraft. If it is to cooperate with military enterprises of other countries, there may be no way to achieve it. But Sweden Saab is definitely a suitable company. As long as the other party cooperates sincerely, I believe that with the comprehensive technical strength of the two companies; it will never be better than Lockheed, Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, Mikoyan, Sukhoi, How much is Dassault in France?

​​

​​

​​

At this moment, Anthony Bofors has made it very clear, how he wants to cooperate; it depends on what the Black Cloud Group thinks.

​​

​​

​​

Bao Zixuan thought for a moment and said, "I don't know what Mr. Bofors has to say, but of course he is interested in cooperation. As you said, although the Black Cloud Group has obtained a complete set of technologies for the third-generation fighter jets from the French Dassault Company; It will take time to get the aircraft into service. After all, there are many companies in France serving Dassault, and the Black Cloud Group does not have these advantages.”

​​

​​

​​

"As a world-renowned fighter jet manufacturer, Saab itself has a solid technical foundation. For the technical reserves of the third-generation fighter jets, I believe it will not be much worse than the French. And Sweden has always adhered to the principle of neutrality, which means that your country will not interfere. The affairs of other countries. Then the fighter jets jointly developed by our two sides, as long as the cost performance is high enough, will definitely be able to occupy a place in the market.”

​​

​​

​​

In fact, Bao Zixuan also understands that the Swedes do not want the world to see that they are not so neutral. Selling weapons and equipment has great limitations. If it is not handled properly, it will cause international disputes. Since it is a neutral country, it must do what a neutral country should do. Once a war breaks out, as long as the belligerents do not infringe upon Sweden's interests, then neither party can be attacked or sanctioned.

​​

​​

​​

If you dare to violate this principle, you will not be wronged if someone destroys your country.

​​

​​

​​

And there is another very important point, the relationship between Bao Zixuan and various countries in the Middle East; it is also within the consideration of Anthony Bofors!

​​

​​

​​

Under the conditions of modern warfare, the importance of weapons and equipment has become more and more prominent; therefore, the Arabs believe that as long as the weapons and equipment are sufficiently advanced, they can win the war no matter what.

​​

​​

​​

In addition, the Middle East is not so peaceful. Those peaceful countries are only because they have an army and a large amount of advanced equipment. If there is no such condition, the armed forces will spare no effort to bully them, and nearby neighboring countries will also take advantage of the opportunity.

​​

​​

​​

Nowadays, the game between Middle Eastern countries is still very fierce, which makes them buy weapons very frequently; even in wars, they don't use that much. It has something to do with their fighting style. Experts once analyzed it, and after getting the results, they said: Too self-willed. Armies like Saudi Arabia and Qatar have extremely low combat qualities; soldiers' ability to withstand pressure is infinitely close to negative numbers, and there is no blood.

​​

​​

​​

Once a war breaks out, they don't care so much; even soldiers often drop their weapons and equipment.

​​

​​

​​

Such a fast consumption rate of weapons and equipment will naturally speed up the purchase rate. The annual cost is about tens of billions of dollars. Arms sales countries such as the United States and France have made a lot of money from it. . From here, you can find the secret that Middle Eastern countries frequently buy weapons; but this amount of money is harmless to them, after all, the most lack is not money.

​​

​​

​​

A more representative example is Qatar. Seven pilot countries purchased 100 fighter jets, and they bought them several times higher than the market price. However, Qatar did not blink an eye and paid very simply. In the absence of pilots, Qatar also employs pilots from other countries to fly. Every year, tens of millions of wages are spent, and even neighboring Saudi Arabia is frightened by Qatar's operation, and it simply does not treat money as money.

​​

​​

​​

In the past, most of the orders for fighter jets in the Middle East were divided up by American companies. Of course, French and Soviet military enterprises can also follow to drink some soup. If Saab cooperates with Heiyun Group, then some of the orders of the big players in the Middle East will inevitably be transferred to Saab.

​​

​​

​​

At present, the competition of fighter jets in the market is becoming more and more intense, especially after the Soviet Union came up with the most advanced fighter jets for sale; it can be said that it has reached the stage of daytime. The world's major military giants can only get orders with all their strength. Saab itself does not have technical advantages. If it is due to some restrictions, it will eventually decline.

​​

​​

​​

As a neutral country, Sweden has a small population; the military pressure is not great, so there are very few domestic purchases.

​​

​​

​​

The price of fighter jets is directly related to the production quantity. That is, the more you produce, the cheaper the price. In fact, the price reduction of raw materials is only a small part, and the main reason is to share research and development costs.

​​

​​

The reason why American planes are profitable is because their output is relatively large. You must know that for fighter jets, the cost of research and development is very high. Especially in the jet era, billions of dollars are just an appetizer; if you really want to reach the world-leading level, the cost of research and development must exceed 10 billion dollars.

​​

​​

​​

With Sabo's current situation, it is simply not enough to support it. Especially after the forced introduction of the black cloud flying saucer technology, the problem is even more obvious. Although it has received support from all sides, Saab has also invested a lot; making the company's few capital reserves, even less.

​​

​​

​​

A company looks very strong; but there is no capital on the books, then there will be a little trouble in the future; it will inevitably fall into a situation of doom.

​​

​​

​​

It can be said that Saab is on the verge of danger, at least there are not many funds on the books. Now we must rely on the strength of Heiyun Group, otherwise it will either be acquired or file for bankruptcy in the future. Maybe it's an exaggeration, but it's not impossible.

​​

​​

​​

Anthony Bofors said with a smile, "Didn't Mr. Bao give his opinion!"

​​

​​

​​

"The two of us are united to complete the research and development of the third-generation aircraft. Saab will share all the technology with Heiyun without reservation. At the same time, the Heiyun Group will also provide funds and a full set of exchanged from Dassault in France. technology."

​​

​​

​​

"The two sides can learn from each other's strengths and complement each other's weaknesses. I believe that the future fighter jet market will definitely have a place for both of us."

​​

​​

​​

"I know that Mr. Bao feels that Saab is taking advantage, but I don't know if you have thought about it; Heiyun Group independently develops three generations of aircraft, and it may not be able to open up the European market. The Middle East will definitely purchase it, and the quantity will not be small. A comprehensive victory over Eurofighter in the competition will leave a great hidden danger in the future."

​​

​​

​​

Everyone is smart. For the sake of saying this, of course you understand what it means.

​​

​​

​​

At present, the most important fighter jet manufacturer in continental Europe is none other than Dassault. Therefore, most of the orders in Europe were obtained by them. On the surface Europe and the United States seem to be one; that is because of the fight against the Soviet Union. If there is no such relationship as Lao Maozi, naturally it will not be so close. There is an exception to everything, let alone fighter jets, the country's most important weapon.

​​

​​

​​

The major French aircraft manufacturing companies need to purchase a large number of parts from Germany. So West Germany bought French planes and it became very normal. After all, both sides have a constraint, although it is a feud; but at this stage, Europe emphasizes the same pace. Everyone will let go of their hatred and work together to fight the Soviet Union.

​​

​​

​​

The system is different, the culture is different; it is difficult to integrate.

​​

​​

​​

As a neutral country, Sweden is the most embarrassing existence. Another neutral country, Switzerland, is in the center of Europe, not to mention that its strengths are in the fields of banking, watches, precision instruments, and pharmaceuticals; it does not involve much military sales itself. UU Reading

​​

​​

​​

Therefore, I will not be excluded, and I even feel that Switzerland is my own to a certain extent. Moreover, there is no obvious conflict between the industrial structure and other European countries.

​​

​​

​​

In the past 100 years, Sweden has never experienced a war; the economy and technology have been developing steadily. It has already made the European continent very jealous. After all, no one has enough to eat, and they only think about fighting all day long.

​​

​​

​​

In addition, Sweden's per capita gdp ranks among the top in the world, so it will naturally be envied by Europeans. France, which was very upset by Sweden, found out that Saab was competing with them for orders, how could it be tolerated.

​​

​​

​​

In the face of the United States and the Soviet Union, France may show weakness; but they are also the five permanent members of the United Nations; Dassault wants to clean up Saab; there is still no big problem.

​​

​​

​​

But then again, fighters still have to rely on their strength to speak. With the technical strength of Heiyun and Saab, plus Bao Zixuan's madness in R&D investment. Not to mention Dassault, McDonnell Douglas and Boeing will naturally not take any advantage of the two.

​​

​​

​​

To be able to rub Dassault on the ground in Europe, then for Saab; it is definitely a great victory!
