Chapter 346: The Prime Minister really didn't lie to me
It's no wonder that Huai Guomo had such a big reaction.
In many of the Navy's combat scenarios at the turn of the century, the role played by the 8J was almost always at the core of combat operations.
Whether it was the initial low-altitude penetration of a JH-7 aircraft fleet or the subsequent large-formation assault after the Type 22 missile boats came into service, this kind of maritime surveillance aircraft is required to perform target search and relay guidance tasks.
Although this method has limited effect against opponents with aircraft carriers, it is after all the only advanced tactic that the Chinese Navy can use in this era.
As a result, this time, he was directly interfered by the other party!
When it was decided to import eight SouShui 2000 radars, the country also thought that the British might do something with the equipment.
However, at that time, everyone's understanding of electronic warfare was not deep enough, and they did not have this string in their minds. The main concern was that the other party would compromise on the performance and functions of the equipment, which was the so-called "monkey version" of export.
After all, we have suffered such losses when doing business with Americans in the past ten years, such as F16/J79 and the like.
At the time of signing the contract and subsequent acceptance, we also took special precautions in this regard.
It turns out that people's current routines have evolved.
The exported equipment itself has no problem, but others hold the key to countering you.
Fortunately, this is just a confrontation. If it is really a conflict or even a war, it will be discovered at the end of the matter that others can easily disable one's most critical radar even if they use equipment from twenty years ago. The consequences will be serious.
Although there is no longer much conflict between China and the United Kingdom, especially the United Kingdom that has completed the change of leadership, it is well known that the secrets of the British are completely open to the United States...
This is not the end yet.
Huai Guomo quickly thought of something more fatal.
Yun 8J was still just a transitional product in the original plan.
but.
Ring Project.
That is a strategic project related to the improvement of the Air Force's combat effectiveness in the next 15-20 years.
From radar to command terminals, as well as electronic countermeasures equipment, a full set of equipment from the Great Patriotic State is used.
The British are not reliable, so how can David be reliable?
It is a trivial matter that the budget of more than one billion has been wasted. The key point is that the research and development progress of the early warning aircraft may be delayed for several years or even longer.
Thinking of this, Huai Guomo almost broke into a cold sweat.
“Is there any solution to this situation, I mean, remedy?”
He asked solemnly.
The problem with the Ring Project is that the contract on China's side has already been signed, and the advance payment of 350 million has been paid. If the contract is terminated now, we will be the ones who breach the contract.
This is another reason why Chang Haonan did not rush to stop this project before (the first reason is that this kind of strategic project cannot be stopped just because of one person) -
Anyway, he knew that the David Council would take the initiative to breach the contract later, and China would not suffer much loss in terms of money. As long as it ensured that the domestic early warning aircraft project was promoted without delaying time, it would be fine.
"There is no trick, the only way is to completely modify the hardware, at least the transmitting circuit part, which is equivalent to fundamentally changing the signal characteristics of the radar, so that it will not be predicted in advance by the other party, just like this time, even if it was originally No matter how strong the electromagnetic interference is, there will still be a delay of several seconds before the interference can be re-implemented after we switch modes. However, judging from the feedback from the crew, the opponent's countermeasures arrive almost simultaneously. It is obvious that they know everything..."
When Chang Haonan said this, the pen in his hand suddenly stopped—
He just realized something.
Of course he knew about the Wave 97 task group, but why did an aircraft originally belonging to the North Sea Fleet Air Force encounter the British fleet in the South China Sea?
“Director Huai.”
Chang Haonan looked at the other side of the conference room:
"Did something happen two days ago? The letter just said that a Y-8J was intercepted by a British carrier-based aircraft, but I think this kind of thing will not happen for no reason."
"You don't know?" Huai Guomo was confused at first when he heard this question, but after a moment, he slapped his thigh fiercely.
"Blame me, blame me, forget that you are not an official staff member of our Science and Technology Commission... Because the impact of this matter is too great, the current scope of publicity is very limited... Of course Xiao Changqian and Academician Du can know, but it will not be officially disclosed Do not disclose the information to others before."
Obviously, this is a big deal.
Chang Haonan nodded to express understanding.
"In fact, a few months ago, when the Hailang 97 fleet set sail, the Navy and the Air Force jointly formulated a set of response strategies. Simply put, it was to replace it with new equipment. In fact, it was the Navy after the J-8C and JH-7 The aviation force is the main force, to scare the British who come to stir up trouble."
"On June 30, one of our three-aircraft formations directly broke through the air defense of the opposing fleet and flew over them. A pilot named Wang Wei even dropped it near their flagship, the aircraft carrier Excellence. Two auxiliary fuel tanks..."
Huai Guomo spent about ten minutes recounting what happened that day.
Chang Haonan was immediately happy:
“Is there such a thing?”
Compared to the previous interception of the MiG-25 of a triple-sonic squadron, although this time it did not bring any direct results, it was much more exciting in terms of appearance.
After all, the Indians were our defeat 35 years ago, so it seems logical to attack them again now.
But the British are different.
Although the British army suffered several small losses in the face of the People's Liberation Army, overall, as an old empire, even if it has declined now, China still feels proud after doing so all of a sudden.
Especially at such an important time.
It can be said that a century of humiliation has been wiped away.
“It's a pity that we can't publicize it.”
After being excited for a while, Chang Haonan said with regret.
After all, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy together. No matter how happy you are, if only one person knows about it, you will not be happy for long.
“There was nothing we could do about it. Originally, at least it could be made public within the army. Even the manuscripts of commendations and publicity were written, but the next day, the other party suddenly sent us a note..."
“Why, are they still planning to continue causing trouble?”
Chang Haonan raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
Generally speaking, in this kind of thing, you have to accept the loss. Anyway, there will be no real losses. At most, a few relatively vulnerable people will be frightened into mental illness. This is also the ideological construction of the opponent's army. If the work is not done well, it has nothing to do with us.
“On the contrary, they are here to de-escalate.”
Huai Guomo waved his hand:
"The things here are more complicated, involving the change of their parliament, and more importantly, the scandal of the royal family... In short, the new one in the UK is the Labor Party, and they have also benefited a lot from this incident, so Very willing to do business with us and develop relationships. ”
“So although there were some interludes in the middle, judging from the results, we achieved a complete victory under a combination of circumstances, no matter on which level.”
Chang Haonan's first feeling was that he was speechless.
"Yes, Prime Minister" Don't lie to me.
This group of people are really willing to do anything to secure their positions.
But for China, it is obviously a good thing.
In this era, Britain still has many areas worthy of cooperation.
