Warship of Great Power Chapter 1069

Chapter 1069 Sell the stealth machine to Lao Maozi?

Nicholas was struggling in his heart.

Qin Tao continued: "Leaving it to your domestic shipyards for production can also be regarded as creating jobs in your country, providing funds to those design bureaus, and supporting their operations. If you leave the aircraft carrier to us for maintenance, you will probably offend us. A lot of people."

Nicholas sighed: "Yes, we want to send the aircraft carrier over for repairs. There is a lot of opposition in the country. However, we are for the development of the navy. We don't want to be dragged down by the domestic shipbuilding industry."

Nicholas was very torn in his heart. Of course he knew that China was unreliable, but the Navy had its own considerations, and the bosses had their own considerations. The Navy wanted to get the renovated warships as soon as possible, while the country wanted to repair the warships. Get a piece of the pie.

The key is the quotation. If the quotation is so high, the boss may give up.

However, he has no other choice but to report the quotation here and see how the country will choose.

 Let's look at the amphibious assault ship first.

Nicholas looked at the warship and murmured: "Qin, the deck of this kind of warship should be able to withstand the impact of vertical take-off and landing fighter jets, right?"

"Of course, our deck can definitely withstand this kind of impact. However, it is estimated that it will be difficult for you to squeeze out the funds to purchase our vertical take-off and landing fighters? You have Sukhoi in your country, and they will not watch you take it. Paying for outsourced fighter jets.”

This is not only that the rich water does not flow to outsiders, but also the glory that belongs to Lao Maozi.

In the era of the Red Empire, the shipbuilding industry was distributed everywhere, and the construction of aircraft carriers was assigned to Ermao's territory. Therefore, after the collapse of the Red Empire, there was a reason why Da Mao was unable to build large warships. After all, Da Mao was not good at it, even from the east. Having purchased an amphibious assault ship, I feel comfortable psychologically.

However, fighter planes are different. In the Red Empire era, those dazzling military aircraft research and development units were all here with Mao. Sukhoi, Mikoyan, Yakovlev, etc. were all famous for a while. Although they went through many hardships later , leaving only one fruit of Sukhoi, which is also the pride of Lao Maozi.

The Sukhoi Design Bureau relies on large-scale exports of Su-27 and Su-30, and it is still very prosperous now. Even if the Sukhoi Design Bureau has not developed vertical take-off and landing fighter jets, it will never watch Da Mao purchase from abroad. Fighters, to them, this is definitely an insult.

The Sukhoi Design Bureau will definitely not agree. Even if there are no fixed-wing fighters on the amphibious assault ship, it will definitely not be able to use Eastern ones.

The Dalai Lama Navy really wants to acquire advanced carrier-based fighter jets. Even if the vertical take-off and landing fighter aircraft are useless, they are still better than the original Yak-38. Although the Dalai Lama Navy has Su-33 and MiG-29K, this kind of carrier-based aircraft can only When paired with the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier, they also know the status of this aircraft carrier.

At this time, when he heard Qin Tao talking about the Sukhoi Design Bureau, Nikola sighed with emotion: "Yes, the Sukhoi Design Bureau will never watch us take money to purchase foreign fighters, even if they don't have any, By the way, they are also developing a fourth-generation aircraft, code-named T-50, which is said to be making its first flight soon."

When Lao Maozi was developing fighter planes, they also started with T. For example, the famous Su-27 was originally codenamed T-10 during the development process. It is also said that T means delta wing. If it has a forward-swept wing, it is S.

Of course, Lao Maozi also noticed that in this era, it is really impossible to go out without a stealth machine. Sukhoi and Dongfang Beifang had a honeymoon period for a period of time. The two had developed how to shoot the Su-27. Bian came to build stealth aircraft, but later they parted ways, and Lao Maozi found his enemy, Ah San, to provide funds to develop advanced fighter jets.

In 2002, the DaMao Air Force began to entrust the Sukhoi Design Bureau to develop a "PAKFA" plan, code-named "I-21". This plan is very large, and there is even a version specially prepared for the navy. It's called "PAKKFuture Carrier Aviation System".

 After two years of development, much of the pre-research work has now been completed. The Sukhoi Design Bureau easily defeated the Mikoyan Group in the bidding, officially obtained the bid from the Ministry of National Defense, and began to build Mao's own fourth-generation aircraft.

 However, based on Lao Maozi's ability, developing such a system is bound to be a long-term process. Will it make its first flight soon? What kind of progress is this?

“The Sukhoi Design Bureau is making rapid progress,” Qin Tao said.

"Of course, the Americans have decided to send the F22 to the Far East. The threats we face have greatly increased, and of course we must speed up development." Nikolai said: "However, this has nothing to do with our navy. The navy only has one aircraft carrier. , Sukhoi will definitely not develop carrier-based aircraft specifically for us."

Nikolai is not interested in Sukhoi's project. The navy can't use it anyway. With the country's current financial resources, even if it is purchased, it will definitely be for the air force. The navy's warships consume a lot of money and it is impossible to give them any more. The Navy purchases carrier-based aircraft.

This also means that after the two amphibious assault ships are built, they will definitely be mainly helicopters. This can only be done for the time being. Oriental vertical take-off and landing fighters cannot be purchased.

A few years ago, the Damao Navy could still sell some rags and exchange some things from the East, but now, the East doesn't look down on these rags, and the rags are not valuable.

"The T-50 of the Sukhoi Design Bureau must be very advanced in performance, right?" Qin Tao was very interested in this aircraft. He inexplicably thought of the recent meeting. The Northern Research Institute also planned to develop such an aircraft. Who would be the first to develop this aircraft? A first flight? Who will be finalized first? Who would accuse whom of plagiarism?

 The scene will definitely be very interesting when the time comes.

But anyway, there is no interaction with Sukhoi Design Bureau now. Even if it is a stumbling block for Sukhoi, there will be no psychological pressure.

“I don't know, new aircraft require strong stealth capabilities, but I heard that the Sukhoi Design Bureau has encountered many problems in this regard, and their aircraft stealth capabilities may not meet Western standards.”

 “Then what will they do?”

"It is estimated that the higher authorities will be urged to modify the indicator parameters. After all, the stealth capability of Western fighter aircraft can be reduced to less than 0.1 square meters. This is simply unbelievable to us. The Sukhoi Design Bureau should require that this indicator be raised to 0.5 It's about square meters, so it's easy to achieve.”

  How large is the radar reflection area of ​​the stealth aircraft? After the Americans invented the F-117, they proudly claimed that the radar reflection area of ​​their fighter plane was only the size of a ping pong ball.

 This is unbelievable to other engineers. It is simply impossible. The Americans must be bragging! If they can't achieve it themselves, they say that the Americans are bragging, and then ask for higher indicators, so that they can achieve this demand.

Hearing Nikolai say this, Qin Tao suddenly thought of something: "It is inappropriate for them to do this. After all, the future sky belongs to stealth aircraft. Lowering their own standards means that they will not be able to achieve success on the future battlefield." Advantage, if you need it, we can send our stealth aircraft over to show you what a real stealth aircraft is. Unfortunately, the Moscow Air Show has passed. Otherwise, the effect should be better if we go to the air show to perform. .”

"Well, you're right." Nicholas nodded: "It's not too late now. You can fly the plane over at any time and hold a show in Moscow to show them the charm of the stealth machine. By the way, if it is vertical If you can take off and land fighter jets, that would be even better."

Nikolai still has a fantasy in his heart, hoping to purchase vertical take-off and landing fighter jets from the East to meet the needs of the Navy's amphibious assault ships. Although this hope is very slim, as long as there is any hope, he must make a hundred percent effort. , after all, the Navy really needs it.

“No problem, as long as you coordinate well, we will fly the plane to you at any time.” Qin Tao nodded in agreement.

Nicholas and the officers behind him breathed a sigh of relief. Although the maintenance agreement for the aircraft carrier was not completed, the current gains were pretty good.

After looking at the amphibious assault ship being built here, the old men glanced at the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier under construction in the dock in the distance. They were very envious, but they did not ask to go and see it. It is estimated that their mood would be more complicated after seeing it. Qin Tao invited them to the guest house for a meal and a drink. Lao Maozi's inspection group, also known as a plane, flew away as if they had come to the East to have a good time.

 After seeing off Lao Maozi, Qin Tao returned to the shipyard, and everyone started talking excitedly. "It's really disappointing. At that time, we could only purchase warships from Lao Maozi, such as modern class, Kilo class, and even the 10,000-ton cruiser and aircraft carrier. Now, we can finally repair the aircraft carrier for Lao Maozi. !" Yang Dawei was the most excited.

 It's not easy to go all the way. Back then, we could only eat the leftovers of Lao Maozi, but now it's Lao Maozi's turn to eat our own. The situation is changing.

"Yes, this turn of events is really touching. However, we must also see that it is not easy to repair the warship for Da Mao." Makarov said: "We have already mobilized many people to repair the cruiser. cheese, and wanting to repair Da Mao's aircraft carrier will make their domestic shipyards and designs dissatisfied.”

Now Makarov is also a big-haired man. He already regards himself as an out-and-out oriental.

If he had not come to the East, Makarov would have died long ago in depression. But now, he is still full of energy and walking like a breeze. His ideals that were not realized before are now being realized. Under his men, the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is Build it!

 At the same time, he also lamented the situation of Da Mao.

“It's not just Da Mao who is dissatisfied, there will also be objections here.” Qin Tao said: “It's not easy, so let's kick the ball back first and let them repair it themselves.”

 “Some of us here are also dissatisfied?” The guys were very curious: “Why?”

"There are always some people who will be wary and think that Da Mao's strength will be detrimental to us." Qin Tao said: "With our help, Da Mao's strength continues to recover, and they will worry that the powerful Da Mao will affect us."

"How is it possible? We are on those devices..." Yang Dawei was halfway through his words, and then stopped abruptly.

Those devices have been tampered with. Da Mao can only use them to deal with other countries and will not pose a threat to himself. However, this matter cannot be spread to outsiders!

“So, my suggestion is to rent the floating dock to them first and let them fiddle with it on their own. After a lot of fiddling, they will realize that we are the only choice, and we will also lay the groundwork here, which will make it easier. It's appropriate." Qin Tao said.

“Mr. Qin, can our stealth machine really be sold to Da Maomao? If they also purchase the stealth machine from us, then we will have more face!”

“We don't know this yet, we can only do our best.”

On the other side, Nicholas returned to the capital and ran to report to the boss. When the boss heard the offer of US$600 million, his expression changed.

"No, the price is too high, far beyond what we can afford. Let's leave it to the domestic shipyards and let them give us quotations. Of course, we cannot stop cooperating with Dongfang, renting floating docks, The purchase of boilers must be arranged.”

Nicholas sighed in his heart. He knew that he could no longer persist, otherwise the boss would suspect that he and Mr. Qin had colluded. He would have to suffer losses at home first and know that he couldn't solve it before he would continue to ask Dongfang for help. of.

"There is another thing. We hope to invite Eastern's stealth aircraft to perform an aerial performance in our Zhukovsky." Nikolai said: "At the same time, we can also use radar equipment to observe this aircraft. Let's see how stealthy it is.”

"Okay, of course." The boss said: "Call the people from the Sukhoi Design Bureau over and let them observe it. It will just provide some reference for their research and development projects. If I am free, I will also go there and participate. .”

 Both things were almost done according to Qin Tao's arrangements.

 A few days later, Zhukovsky City.

This is a small town only forty kilometers away from Moscow. It used to be just a small town called Stakhanov. In order to commemorate a miner, it was renamed Zhukovsky in 1947. Nikolay Zhukovsky, a pioneer in aerodynamics and fluid dynamics.

At the same time, this small town is also under continuous construction. It has the Gromov Flight Research Institute, the Central Aerodynamics Research Institute, the Cyprus International School of Management, etc., so it has become Damao's "Technology City" " and the "Aviation Industry Center", where various aircraft are tested and air shows are held here. At the same time, it is also the center of track and field sports.

The warm wind was blowing in this small town. On the runway of the Gromov Test Flight Institute, many people were already standing there, eagerly waiting for the arrival of the fighter planes in the sky.

"The plane is still a hundred kilometers away from us." The person in charge, Bolzakov, introduced to everyone: "However, so far, there are only two bright spots on our radar screen. Mr. Qin, the stealth of your plane is very good. !”

Qin Tao has come ahead of time. He has been holding back at home for so long. The opportunity to go abroad is too rare. However, Qin Tao has also been restricted in his freedom. After going abroad, his scope of activities is this flight test institute. He cannot go out again to avoid encountering Danger.

The J-31A took off directly from the east. After a long flight and an in-flight refueling, it flew to Moscow. At the same time, after entering the Dalian-Mao border, it was accompanied by two Su-27s.

 However, there were always only two bright spots on the radar screen. The accompanying Eastern fighter plane could not appear on the radar screen at all.

At this time, after hearing Bolzakov's words, Qin Tao nodded: "Of course, in the era of fourth-generation aircraft, stealth is the most important indicator. The radar reflection area of ​​our aircraft is less than 0.1 square meters. Thank you for your support." Phased array radar needs to be used to converge all the beams, so it should be able to capture it at a distance of forty kilometers."

Stealth aircraft are only low-detectability aircraft, which does not mean they can be completely invisible. Phased array radar can still detect them by focusing the beams together. The detection distance depends on the number of echoes received.

Now, after hearing these indicators mentioned by Qin Tao, Mikhail, the head of the T-50 project of the Sukhoi Design Bureau on the side, finally couldn't help it: "Mr. Qin, how is it possible that the stealth performance of the stealth aircraft is so good?" good?"

Qin Tao smiled: "Is it so good? Let's take a look. Your flight test institute should not have an S-400 air defense missile system at ordinary times, right?"

 Everyone is smart, so there is no need to pretend to be confused. Planes from the East come here just to show off their stealth! Lao Maozi just wants to see how strong the invisibility is!

 What is the purpose of Easterners? In addition to promoting fighters and trying to get Lao Maozi to purchase them, they also wanted to interfere with Lao Maozi's research and development of the Su-57. They racked their brains and wasted time for stealth, and then Dongfang's aircraft might be the first to make its first flight. By then, Who needs to say who plagiarized?

As for Lao Maozi, he doesn't believe it. Although the United States' stealth aircraft is famous, they have not had direct contact with it. It was not until recently that the Yankees announced that they would deploy F22 to the island country that Lao Maozi felt threatened. Only then did Lao Maozi finally make up his mind to build the T-50.

 However, they are still skeptical about how stealthy the stealth fighter is, so they just took this opportunity to test the performance of Dongfang's stealth aircraft.

In the late 1990s, based on the S300PMU2, Damao integrated Damao's advanced research results in the fields of radio, radar, rocket manufacturing, microelectronics, computers and other fields over the years to develop a new generation of mobile multi-channel air defense and terminal low-level anti-missile integrated The "third and a half generation" long-range surface-to-air missile weapon system was initially numbered S-300PMU3 and later renamed S-400.

Laomaozi also has great advantages in this aspect, especially its radar, which uses the most advanced 64H6 phased array radar. Although this radar still uses some analog components, by increasing the power of the components, the performance is still Very strong.

According to Lao Maozi's estimation, this radar can detect the stealth aircraft two hundred kilometers away, and then transmit the data to the 36H6 illumination guidance radar, locking and firing at a distance of one hundred kilometers.

 Now it's actually placed within fifty kilometers? At this distance, bombs can be dropped!
