The reason why Chen Xu was surprised was because helicopters and transport planes were not discussed in the original negotiations, but he didn't expect the emperor to add these in the supplementary terms. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

And the US imperialists have no way to refuse the tough high-level leaders of the imperial capital. After thinking about it again, he finally agreed to the request of the imperial capital, and sent a lot of additional weapons and equipment.

These C130 Hercules and C5 Galaxy transport aircraft are part of it. The main reason is that the US military has more than 500 transport planes, and these 18 planes are just scratching the itch for China.

A dozen planes is really not much, especially in the negotiations, it is only a verbal number, and a few more and a few minus are just a difference in numbers. But in real life, so many planes are placed together but they are very imposing, which makes people's hearts swell.

Of course, China does not have the need to project troops around the world, and the Chinese Air Force at this stage only needs about 30 large strategic transport aircraft, which is enough to be used.

C5 Galaxy is a good thing, if it is used for mapping and reverse research, it will encounter the same dilemma as the Yun-10 team, that is, the problem of insufficient national industrial strength, and it is still a long way to go to manufacture this large strategic transport aircraft domestically!

With so many planes sent at once, the airbase had some indigestion, because the number of hangars was insufficient, and these transport planes could only be stored in the open air.

However, construction machinery is already working in the distance of the airport, and it seems that the air base is preparing to expand the hangar to store these treasures.

The hangar was very lively, with no less than hundreds of people standing bustling, all circling around the plane, Chen Xu walked over with vegetables and luggage, put things on a table at the door, and then walked to one of the F15s.

Looking at the world's most advanced fighter up close, you can find that its design is full of beauty, with a straight and tall nose, a streamlined fuselage that overflows the texture of steel, and an army gray paint that is very stylish.

"They were sent on the 3rd of last month, and dozens of U.S. military pilots flew across the Atlantic Ocean from the continental United States, stopped in Hawaii, and then refueled in the air to continue their flights, and flew here in one go. I have to say that the US military aviation unit has rich experience, and there was not the slightest mistake in flying such a long distance, especially the process of refueling in the air is even better, unlike our army now that it does not even have this ability, and the pilots have no training in this area. Just as Chen Xu reached out to touch the F15 fuselage, a man's voice came from behind him.

Chen Xu is very familiar with him, he is the commander of the 18th Air Force Division Han Sheng, a man trained by the Pancrado Division of the Soviet Union, who piloted the MiG-15 and the US military on the battlefield of the Soviet Union and Korea, and injured a US P-51 fighter, his biggest regret in his life is that he has no record of shooting down fighters.

"Division Commander Han saw these US fighters, did he feel anything?" Chen Xu knew who was coming when he heard his voice, and turned around with a smile and asked.

When he saw the classic bald hair in the middle again, he looked like a Turk if he grew a beard again, and he couldn't help but want to laugh. Once asked Han Sheng why he didn't just shave his head, his answer was always a simple "something is better than nothing", and the most important thing was that no one in his base dared to laugh at him. The pig pacesetter of the 18th Division, it is said that he smiled at Han Sheng's Mediterranean-style bald head who was still the head of the regiment, and then he was put on small shoes and driven to the cooking class to raise pigs......

"With such a good plane, what can I do but be happy! The J-6 of our division is a human-operated rocket, and the performance is backward, not to mention the engine under the buttocks, compared with these American third-generation fighters, the difference between the sky and the ground. "Commander Han has lived up to his heroic posture back then, and has been fighting wits and courage in the air with the spy planes infiltrated by Frog Island and the US military all the year round, exhausting his mind, and because of his age, he can't fly anymore, so his body is crooked, and he walks over with his hands behind his back.

"Why are these helicopters, transport planes, and F15s sent to your 18th Division? Master Han is now rich, but he wants to be treated! Chen Xu looked at the big plane on the airport with some envy and teased.

"If all these planes were given to the 18th Division, I would wake up smiling every day in my dreams, but unfortunately I only put them here! Now all the planes that fly from the United States will land here and keep them for a while, and when our pilots finish their training in the United States, they will take all these planes with them. Commander Han snorted with some dissatisfaction, with Chen Xu's warning, the imperial capital didn't want the U.S. military to get too involved in China, and didn't want them to fly around in the airplanes over China, especially the military restricted area like the airport, which couldn't just come if you wanted to. Therefore, the Datuopu Airport was selected as the receiving point for US military aircraft, where all military planes sent from the United States were accepted in a unified manner, and the distribution was made after the Americans left.

"It turned out to be just a deposit...... Your 18th Division is also the patron saint of the southern sky of the motherland, so it is impossible not to give a good plane! You, Master Han, are a goose plucking feathers and a snake peeling the skin of Grandtai, these planes are transferring here, you don't get some benefits to believe it! Chen Xu also understood that it was impossible for China to stuff so many advanced fighters into one division, and besides, the 18th Division was responsible for the air defense combat mission of the Huguang Military Region, and it belonged to an offensive air force. Helicopter gunships and large transport aircraft are more useful for the army, and it is really useless to stay in this division.

"It's a stay, it's a stay, it's all these F15s in front of you, all of them have been allocated to our division. It's a pity that there are only five of them, which is not enough for me to stuff my teeth. Master Han said with some fragmentation, he glanced at Chen Xu, and then said: "I heard that you negotiated with the Americans to get more than 360 third-generation fighters this time, why don't you talk to the imperial capital, and then divide our 30 or so planes, which are also air force units stationed in your hometown, there is no reason for you to support more." ”

"Master Han, it's not that I won't help you, with five F15s, you will be content! This is the most advanced third-generation fighter in the world, and no other country in the world can afford to equip it except the US military. Don't worry about those F14 and F16, they were all placed in the north to defend against the Soviet Air Force in the Far East, not one less! Besides, Sino-US relations have eased now, and the air defense of the south will be very easy in the next 10 years, and advanced equipment will be useless. Chen Xu said solemnly.

"This is the most difficult to enter Jane from luxury, and I have tasted the benefits of the third-generation aircraft, who still has the patience to drive the J-6 kind of person to operate the rocket, and this team will not be easy to bring in the future." Master Han looked up at the tall and handsome F15 is both love and hate, every day he asks people to maintain the plane exquisitely bright, not even a single drop of dust is allowed to fall, even the dirt in the tire seam of the landing gear is clean, baby!

"Is ground maintenance and personnel training in place? What about the weapons that come with the F15? Chen Xu knew that Han Sheng's complaint was performed for him, this guy must have known that he had five billion military spending, although the money belonged to the army, it did not prevent him, the commander of the air force, from reaching out and picking points. Of course, Chen Xu couldn't let him succeed, so he changed the topic and asked some core questions, he was worried that the United States would make a fuss about such a small matter and cut corners.

"Air-to-air missiles, electronic pods, ground-to-ship bombs, and ship-to-ship bombs are all complete, and they were transported together with the six C130s outside, and they have now been stored in the arsenal. As for the personnel training, it has already been sent to the United States, and it is estimated that it will take a year and a half to return. As for ground maintenance, the Americans have issued drawings and manuals, and let us prepare our own maintenance plant for the ground maintenance of the F15, and they will ship the repair equipment after the plant is built. Master Han pointed to a long distance outside, and said in a nonchalant manner at the construction site.

Hearing this, Chen Xu couldn't help frowning: "The Americans are playing ghosts, this repair shop should be repaired at their expense, only send drawings and equipment over, and I'll look for them to ...... when I go back."

"Forget it! Let the Americans come to our Datuopu Airport to build a factory, then the secrets of our airport will not be known to others! It is enough to have drawings and equipment, we just need to build the building and install the equipment according to the drawings, and it will not cost much. Commander Han waved his hand, he still didn't trust the Americans and refused to let the Americans come to his base.

"Alright! However, you have to ensure that the ground support equipment of the F15 is all in place, we only have these five aircraft, and if they fail to repair and cannot be sent back to the United States to return to the factory, it will become a laughing stock of the Yankees. Chen Xu nodded, and asked the teacher to take care of it, so that Americans could not see the details of China.

"I've eaten more salt than you've walked, and you don't need to teach you these questions, I'll train those rabbit cubs hard to make sure that these planes are used until they are retired." At this time, someone next to him greeted Master Han for something, and after the old man said goodbye to Chen Xu, he still put his hands behind his back and turned to leave.

Chen Xu looked at the stiff back of Master Han and said he was sorry. In the final analysis, the country is too poor, and if there is money to equip five or six hundred third-generation aircraft, there will be no shortage of aircraft at all.

Next, Chen Xu went to see Apache, this advanced armed helicopter has always been a good thing for domestic military fans, but unfortunately the Americans are not tight, and the Chinese people have never had the opportunity to see it. Unexpectedly, the times have changed, and now it has been introduced, allowing Chen Xu to see its true face of Lushan.

Drilling into the cab, you can see that the paint on the operating lever is a little mottled, which shows that this aircraft is indeed the active equipment of the US military, which is directly drawn from the troops, and there is no performance deletion.

However, Chen Xu doesn't mind that it is second-hand, this advanced armed helicopter is worth a fortune even if it is scrapped, for China, it is a specimen used for reverse mapping and future dismantling research, but it is still not good to use it for war, after all, there are only a dozen or so planes, and it is okay for military training. If you fly to the battlefield and be knocked down by the Yue Monkey with RPG, there is no other way but to hurt your flesh.

These helicopters were transported in the belly of the C5 Galaxy, a super-large transport aircraft with a huge belly, and the equipment of the US military in active service can be loaded into it.

This is also the original intention of the US military to design the Galaxy, in fact, all the equipment of the US military must be considered at the beginning of the design, whether it can be installed in the transport aircraft, this is a mandatory requirement. The U.S. military has always been a global army, and convenient and fast air transportation is their lifeblood, and if the weapons cannot be stuffed into the transport planes, they cannot be quickly deployed to the war zone, and such weapons are designed to be useless.
