Chapter 952: Commercial Means
Seeing Jiang Huichuan's slightly melancholy eyes, Liu Haotian also sighed slightly in his heart, how could Liu Haotian not know the thoughts of this old comrade-in-arms in front of him, but the real threat was in front of him, and its degree was even more than the southeast coastal air defense operations in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, because of this, it was imperative to realize the modernization of the Chinese Air Force, so after seeing Jiang Huichuan a little distracted, Liu Haotian said:
"Although it is said that it is a 10-year army and a 100-year navy, if there is no air force as a cover, even if the army and navy are strong, it is not enough to see, not to mention far away, the Gulf War is the best example. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Although Iraq has made some noise with the "Falcon" air defense missile system, the air strike force led by the United States still shocks the Chinese Air Force, and the continuous surprise attacks of multiple types of aircraft, large formations, and high-intensity, as well as the interweaving of electronic warfare, intelligence warfare, and offensive and defensive warfare, have made the Chinese military realize how big the gap is between it and the world's top aviation combat power.
You must know that the level of equipment of the Iraqi Air Force during the Gulf War far surpassed that of the Chinese army, but even in the face of the overwhelming air combat strength of the United States, it was like a pebble thrown into the ocean, and it did not even want to make a wave, which made the officers and men of the Chinese Air Force, who were always paying attention to the Gulf War, feel a strong sense of powerlessness from the inside out.
Obviously, the Chinese Air Force, which is the main force of the next-generation aircraft, the second-generation aircraft is the backbone, and the third-generation aircraft is the furnishings, even if it has far more fearless courage than Iraq, it will not be able to make up for the huge technological generation gap, and the loss of air supremacy will inevitably become an irreversible reality.
It is precisely for this reason that after the Gulf War, the Chinese armed forces did not become complacent because of the excellent performance of their "Falcon" air defense missile system, but began to conduct in-depth reflection and summing up the existing equipment system.
Jiang Huichuan, as a commander who had commanded the conflict between China and the Soviet Union in the South China Sea, naturally knew the urgency of improving the strength of the Chinese Air Force, so he put away the slightly advanced mind, and put out half of the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray, and then nodded and said:
"You're right, you know the tone of the center, but the key question is how to go, oh....... By the way, you don't seem to have read the report that the Air Force just handed over........"
As he spoke, Jiang Huichuan pushed a green folder on the desk, Liu Haotian stood up, came to the desk, picked up the folder, and after reading a few pages, his already solemn face became even more gloomy, and he immediately raised his eyes to look at Jiang Huichuan behind the desk, and said with a little anger:
"Lao Jiang, why is the Air Force in such a hurry, three years........ You know, it's not a car, it's an advanced fighter that can compete with the surrounding air power, what do you want me to give them in such a short period of time?"
It is no wonder that Liu Haotian is angry, because the report submitted by the Air Force makes it very clear that he hopes to be equipped with new fighters that can compete with the US military's active fighters within three years.
But to let him come up with a usable advanced fighter within three years, it is definitely difficult for a strong man, others do not know, but Liu Haotian knows that the current domestic aviation industry is thriving on the surface, but in fact it has long been struggling, and none of the several models developed in the 80s can satisfy the troops.
The successive cancellation of orders for several models, coupled with the tepid foreign arms sales, have all put the aviation research institutes and manufacturers that have invested heavily in them under tremendous financial pressure, and even some of the weaker aviation factories have broken their capital chains, let alone restarting production, and even basic wages have become a problem.
In such a situation, it will take a year and a half to reorganize the aviation industry, not to mention such as technological innovation, upgrading technology, personnel training, etc., after everything is mature, three years have already passed, because of this, after saying that, Liu Haotian shook his head again and added:
"What is the current situation in the country, I think Lao Jiang, you should also know in your heart, even if the Air Force is in a hurry, it can't be in vain to ignore the reality, it was originally called to build a fourth-generation aircraft in five years, but how long did it take to come up with this new fighter with usable equipment within three years, it's just ........ It's ........ Playing the piano ........"
Liu Haotian remembered that there were some things that were very noisy about the establishment of the fourth-generation aircraft these days, and he was a little angry, he had not even fully mastered the second-generation aircraft, and the third-generation aircraft was a mess, so he wanted to directly go over to the fourth-generation aircraft, which made Liu Haotian feel unreliable.
If China does not keep up, I am afraid that the already backward equipment system will be further distanced by others; moreover, the technical data of the F-117 and the wreckage of the second half of the US side are equivalent to a shot in the arm for domestic aviation experts and air force leaders.
Thinking that by this shortcut, the research and development of the fourth-generation aircraft will inevitably get twice the result with half the effort, because although Liu Haotian's status is second only to Jiang Huichuan, it is not good to overturn the opinions that have almost become the consensus of the industry, so he can only bear his anger and silently pay attention to the development of the situation, but he did not expect that the fourth-generation aircraft beyond the reality has not yet been landed, and a more unrealistic problem has been created, how not to make Liu Haotian, who is mainly responsible for equipment, angry?
Seeing Liu Haotian sitting back on the sofa angrily, picking up the teacup as if swallowing bitter wine, and taking a sip, Jiang Huichuan's defeated and emaciated face did not show half sympathy for his old comrades, but instead curled the corners of his mouth and smiled slyly, but Liu Haotian glanced at Jiang Huichuan quietly:
"When has it been, and you can laugh?"
Jiang Huichuan didn't care, "The matter of blindly going to the fourth-generation aircraft should have an eyebrow today, why can't I smile?"
"Lao Jiang, don't joke with me here, what is the enthusiasm of those people, you haven't seen it before, how can it be....... Well, what are you looking at me like that? ....... Is it really solved?"
As soon as Jiang Huichuan's words fell, Liu Haotian waved his hand, not taking Jiang Huichuan's words to heart at all, but as he spoke, he felt that something was wrong, because he found that his deep eyes were full of cunning like an old fox, and they were all old comrades-in-arms for many years, Liu Haotian naturally understood what this kind of look meant, but his heart moved slightly, and he looked at Jiang Huichuan with a shocked face:
"Lao Jiang, you're not lying to me, are you?"
"If Lu Jiadong's stinky boy didn't lie to me, then I didn't lie to you!"
"Little Lu?"
After listening to Jiang Huichuan's words, Liu Haotian was even more puzzled by the second monk, you must know that this matter cannot be solved even by those of them who are in high positions, how can Lu Jiadong, who is just the person in charge of a military industrial enterprise, solve it, it is the fire of hope that Liu Haotian has just risen, and it instantly glooms, and his straight body bent down again:
"How can he do it? Those people have already been twisted into a rope, and even if the special chief goes out in person, he may not be able to disperse........
"In fact, sometimes it's similar to when we used to attack the mountain, the front is not good, just try the side, all in all, I am still very optimistic about Xiao Lu!"
Before Liu Haotian finished speaking, Jiang Huichuan took the conversation, and when he said this again, the scene when the two met three days ago involuntarily appeared in his mind, especially Lu Jiadong's scheming profiteer's face, which made the corners of Jiang Huichuan's mouth twitch until now, but Jiang Huichuan's contrasting words and expressions made Liu Haotian even more confused, so he asked with some doubts:
"Lao Jiang, let's not be joking....... Jingle bell~~~"
Liu Haotian had just read half of his words, but the phone on the desk suddenly rang, Liu Haotian had no choice but to stop his mouth in time, while Jiang Huichuan picked up the phone, and after listening to a few words, he smiled proudly at Liu Haotian:
"Whether it's a joke or not, you'll find out by listening to it yourself!"
As he spoke, Jiang Huichuan pressed the speakerphone button, and then Lu Jiadong's calm and confident voice came from the loudspeaker: "Chief, I've done it for you!" It's just that Professor Lu's psychological quality is not very good, and he was fainted, but fortunately, the rescue was timely and there was no major problem, all in all, I was offended, and my family was about to be emptied, so you can't go back on what you promised me.......
As soon as he heard Lu Jiadong take out the arms dealer's face to talk about things, Rao is Jiang Huichuan has been in the top position for a long time, and he also has a black line on his face, so he hurriedly stopped:
"As long as it doesn't violate the principles, I don't care....... But....... Where is Chief Liu......."
When Lu Jiadong on the other end of the phone heard Jiang Huichuan's words, he immediately jumped to his feet and complained: "Chief, you can't talk without words.......
But Jiang Huichuan's face once again appeared with an old fox-like smile, and he said slowly on the phone: "If you are in a hurry, come over, I also made an appointment with Chief Liu, and then you will see your kid's ability......."
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Huichuan hung up the phone, and immediately straightened up and looked at Liu Haotian opposite with a smile, and Liu Haotian was still at a loss at this time, and it was not until several reports about today's fourth-generation aircraft demonstration meeting came that Liu Haotian believed that what Jiang Huichuan said was true, but he was very curious, how could Lu Jiadong solve the matter that even he, a high-level member of the Central Military Commission, could not handle?
"How did Xiao Lu do it?"
When Jiang Huichuan heard this, he smiled mysteriously and popped out four words: "Business means!"
