Chapter 200: The Navy's Choice

Cybertron Digital, Parking Lot.

After Qiao Ting went downstairs, she got directly into the passenger seat of a black Audi A4L, driven by a middle-aged man with a wooden expression, who looked a little unsmiling.

Since Qiao Ting began to be in charge of the work of the VR flight simulation system project team, under her soft grinding, Qiao Lao finally agreed to transfer her organizational relationship to the intelligence department of the General Staff, which is also the first time Qiao Ting has performed official duties as an intelligence department official.

"Director Yu, let's go!"

This wooden man who looks like Yu Zecheng in "Latent" is the director of the Seventh Office of the ZJ Provincial People's Government, but in fact he is the main intelligence head of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff in the Southern Military Region, mainly responsible for the intelligence work on the treasure island.

This is the same as the sign of the "International Institute for Strategic Studies" carried by the Intelligence Department of the General Staff, although the sign of the Seventh Office of the Provincial Government seems harmless to people and animals, it is doing the most important work, and even the leaders of the ZJ Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government cannot control his head.

"Lieutenant Colonel Qiao, how are you talking?" said Director Yu.

Qiao Ting shook her head and said, "Chen Xin doesn't know much, the origin of this Transwarp Group is very mysterious, and it should have a great connection with the jishu team behind Chen Xin." At present, our intelligence officers in the UK have not found much useful information, and none of the public appearances of the Transwarp Group are really principals, whether it is Chairman Osborne or General Manager Vickers, the social relationship is relatively simple, and Osborne has only been bankrupt for a few months, and he suddenly has so much more money in his bank account, which must be abnormal......"

Qiao Ting paused. continued: "But no matter what, we are partners at present, as long as the other party does not do any tricks in China and abides by Chinese laws to do business and make money, we don't need to get to the bottom of it." Director Yu, you can just pay a little attention during this time, there is no need to make a big fuss. ”

Director Yu nodded and said, "I understand!"

The Audi A4 engine made a slight roar, the car started, and soon blended into the vast traffic of Jiangcheng.

……

Chen Xin stood at the window, through the glass curtain wall. Watch as the black Audi A4L disappears into the distance.

played a recording of the conversation between Qiao Ting and Director Yu in his ear.

Chen Xin frowned and thought for a while. said: "Gangyi, did you say that Qiao Ting's girl found something, how do I feel that the other party's interest in Transwarp Group is not as simple as she said." ”

The Rubik's Cube on the table instantly stretched out and changed into the appearance of a small robot. Sitting cross-legged, he said, "Old Bean." Do you want me to follow her and keep her under surveillance?"

Chen Xin shook his head. said: "Forget it, maybe she's tempting." We do ours, as long as we don't expose our relationship with Transwarp. Look up whatever they want. ”

nodded, and was about to speak, its electronic eyes flashed suddenly, and said, "Old Bean, the general staff is looking for it." ”

Chen Xin was slightly stunned, laughed, and said: "Gangyi, it seems that there is another big business coming to the door, open the TT software!"

The computer desktop on the desk flickered, a TT dialog box popped up, and the avatar of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff was flashing.

Intelligence Department of the General Staff: "Comrades of the War Situation, hello, I am Peng Guochen!"

Chen Xin sat down at his desk and typed, "Hello comrades!"

I don't know when the General Staff and the war situation began to have this tacit understanding, and no matter what level of government figures came forward to talk to the war situation, they all called each other "comrades".

At this time, in the data center of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff, dozens of people sat in rows, and in addition to some of the relevant experts of the working group for dealing with the war situation, there were also several leaders from the Central Military Commission, one of whom was wearing a white admiral's uniform, and it was General Wei Hai, the commander of the Navy.

In the past few months, as China's cooperation with the war situation has gradually deepened, the number of high-level people who know about the existence of the war situation has also increased.

It was at the regular meeting of the Central Military Commission two months ago that General Wei Hai learned the name of the war.

For this mysterious organization, General Wei Hai didn't have much thought at first, and this level of game had little to do with the navy.

It wasn't until later, after the General Staff purchased a large number of gallium nitride T/R components from the war, that General Wei Hai really began to pay attention to it.

Here we have to mention the aircraft carrier "Varyag", which is still moored in the port of DL.

In May this year, the "Varyag" installed the Type 346 multifunctional phased array radar system consistent with the Type 052C China Aegis missile destroyer, which is China's first sea-based shipborne phased array radar, and the appearance of its and Haihongqi-9 missiles has enabled the Chinese Navy ship formation to bid farewell to the maritime air defense system composed of the Haihongqi 7 and Hongqi 61, and for the first time truly has regional air defense capabilities.

However, compared with the Aegis system in the United States, this radar has a certain gap in both power and stability.

However, the new-generation phased array radar system on the Shiyan ship "Bi Sheng" is still in the testing stage, and it will not be able to catch up with the progress of the Varyag at all. Therefore, the Chinese Navy had to agree to install the 346 radar system on the "Varyag".

However, the emergence of this batch of gallium nitride components made the hearts of many people in the know suddenly bigger.

It was proposed that a new generation of phased array radar be designed using this batch of gallium nitride T/R components to replace the 346 radar system on the "Varyag".

As soon as this argument came out, it caused a big controversy both in the military industry and in the top echelons of the military.

Some people feel that this is inappropriate, on the one hand, the 346 radar has been developed for many years, the Jishu is mature and reliable, and the performance has been improved a lot compared with when it was first put into service, which can fully meet the needs of the Chinese Navy.

On the other hand, the 346 radar has only been installed on the Varyag for less than three months, and at this time, another radar will be replaced immediately.

Of course, there are many people who believe that gallium nitride components, as microwave power amplifiers, will be a mainstream direction for the development of active arrays in the future. Its breakdown electric field/voltage is several times and tens of times that of silicon bipolarides and GaAs, and once replaced, it will greatly increase the power density of the Varyag active array. In addition, GaN also has better high-band operation capability and better thermal stability than gallium arsenide, and can operate normally at higher temperatures. As long as the gallium arsenide component in the 346 radar is replaced with a gallium nitride component, they are sure that the performance of the radar will be increased by two to three times, at least to the level of the DBR radar on the American Zumwalt-class guided missile destroyer.

You must know that the "Zumwalt" will not be able to form combat effectiveness until at least 2015, and if the Varyag is equipped with a new phased array radar based on gallium nitride components, the regional air defense capability of the "Varyag" aircraft carrier battle group will be greatly improved in the future, and it will even have the ability to detect nuclear warheads flying outside the atmosphere.

The two sides of the dispute took the lawsuit to the top level of the central government, and for such a highly professional issue, the central leadership kicked the ball to the navy, and the principle of the navy being independent.

At this moment, General Wei Hai was a little embarrassed, and held several ventilation meetings, but even the opinions within the navy were not unanimous. Some comrades believe that it is better to simply use all these radar components on the Type 052D destroyers, because anyway, there are still three or four years before the "Varyag" aircraft carrier can form its combat effectiveness, and it is estimated that the new generation of Type 052D missile destroyers will have just been launched into service, so there will be no question of whether to replace or not to replace.

Some people also believe that the Varyag, as the first generation aircraft carrier of the Chinese Navy, will even become the flagship of the Chinese Navy in the future, and it is somewhat unreasonable not to put the most advanced radar on the flagship.

More importantly, the Varyag bridge has a better load-bearing structure and is capable of installing a larger phased array array than the destroyer, and it would be a waste not to install such a radar on the Varyag.

General Zuihou Wei Hai couldn't make up his mind, and some people said that since these radar T/R components came from the war, why not ask their opinions.

So this is where we have today. (To be continued......)
