Evaluating the Gulf War, of course, it took a lot of time, and in the interval between them, Zhang Juzuo recorded several episodes of "Military World", and the previous Zhang Juzuo's magical prediction was quite accurate in the defeat of Iraq, and it was also an instant hit in the mouths of the people of the Republic.

However, a huge country certainly cannot pin its security on relying on strategic deception, and in the end it must be implemented, so at the end of the coalition air raids, the bigwigs who are sitting in the imperial capital and continue to study the Gulf War have finally begun to think about more rigorous and careful solutions.

At this critical time, whether it was Commander Liu, the navy or the air force, they all unanimously asked Yang Hui to come to this meeting, express their views on it, and make a report.

Yang Hui knew for a long time that there would be such a day, if the Gulf War could not wake up the leaders of the republican side with a stick, then he could really only kneel gorgeously.

Fortunately, this time, the high-level of the republic was able to see the situation, and according to the previous ideas revealed by some various channels of Southwest Science and Industry or Yang Hui, they saw the extraordinary, so they were willing to summon Yang Hui to the imperial capital to participate in the high-level meeting.

And this time, Yang Hui is all kinds of preparations, materials, and relevant technical personnel should bring all the materials, just waiting for the time to teach the turtles a good lesson, so that all the leaders know: as long as they are willing, it is not so difficult to complete the modernization of national defense.

This time it is still a charter plane to take off, although the plane of United Airlines is civilian, but it is not a big problem for Southwest Science and Industry to spend a wallet machine to travel, and the lowest cost price will not be much more expensive than taking a train, and the time comes quickly, so as not to offend everyone

After arriving in the imperial capital. The most basic thing is to report the progress of the JF-17 and J-18 projects first, which is definitely essential.

"JF-** will be finalized in the second half of the year, and the delivery work will probably have to wait until the beginning of next year, anyway, as long as the army has the intention to purchase, we can continue to produce, if the army feels that there is a better choice. We at Southwest Science and Technology can stop the production of JF-17 at any time, but the repair and maintenance of the aircraft will definitely continue. ”

Yang Hui is completely self-aware, JF-17's positioning in China is just a transitional product before the No. 10 project has not been finalized and formed combat effectiveness, of course, it can also be regarded as a new procurement object after the army stopped the procurement of J-74, anyway, Yang Hui calculated with the largest estimate, the domestic order for this aircraft is absolutely impossible to exceed 200 aircraft.

Fortunately, the research and development of this aircraft did not take much effort, and the main market for this aircraft in the future is not in China, and the production line in Brazil is the main battlefield of JF-17. At that time, the international market will have to place orders for 500 to 1,000 aircraft, and then it will be considered a complete merit.

"Of course, our J-18 project is now progressing very well, the detailed design has been basically formed, the 1-to-5 model free flight number jù has been fully analyzed, the full-size wooden model on the ground has also been installed in place, and after the next two months of wiring optimization, our No. 18 can start the first prototype manufacturing work in the second half of the year. Manufacturing is expected to be completed next year. ”

Going from drawing to prototype for a brand new aircraft is the hardest step, and there is no detailed experience to draw on here. At the same time, there are frequent accidents in various assemblies, and the difficulties are really difficult to express in a few words, so the first prototype of an aircraft is definitely not a slow schedule in the first half of the year.

Being able to complete the manufacture of the prototype in 92 years, everyone in the meeting breathed a long sigh of relief, starting from the J-18 project at the beginning of 89, it is now the third year. It is definitely impossible to say that everyone is not anxious, if it weren't for the fact that the performance of Southwest Science and Industry was good enough, maybe there would have been various opposition voices long ago.

Well, now that the J-18 project is in full swing according to plan, the Navy is of course the happiest. Commander Zhang, who has been the commander of the Navy for a year, also has very big expectations for the J-18, not to mention that the super combat radius of this aircraft alone makes the Navy drool.

"Well, if we can complete the design work of the aircraft according to the schedule, our Navy will definitely spare no effort to support the continuation of this project, but our Navy now has a new requirement: the inner wing pylons of this aircraft are required to have a payload capacity of at least two tons, which is an increase from the previous requirement of 1.5 tons, I wonder if you can do it?"

Are the design requirements going to be changed so soon? Fortunately, Yang Hui had already expected it before, and when the J-18 was developed, he insisted on leaving more heavy-load margins for the two inner pylons under the wings when designing, and now it is really useful, and the two-ton heavy-load requirement is right!

"Two tons? It's not that we can't do this, we just need to let go of the margin left by our design, but this suddenly increased to the 2-ton payload requirement because we were not satisfied with the YJ-83 project that we had prepared before? ”

The so-called YJ-83 missile, in fact, is the previously mentioned C-801 (YJ-81) missile of the domestic improved code, in the previous face its export code is C-803 missile, and it has been said before that C-801 missile is a product of the early 80s, and now it has reached the 90s, it is definitely impossible to use this old-fashioned thing.

Didn't you see that even the anti-ship missiles equipped with the JF-17 have been upgraded to C-802? The J-18, which is more powerful than the JF-17, is definitely not going to use the C-801 or C-802 missiles, so the newly developed YJ-83 (C-803) missile was developed many years in advance, with the intention of developing a medium and long-range subsonic anti-ship cruise missile.

At that time, after consultation between the navy and the missile developer, it came to the conclusion that the YJ-83 missile, which was developed in advance, needed a weight of 1.4 tons to meet the requirements put forward by the army, and when the army put forward a request to the southwest science and industry, it also put forward the load index of 1.5 tons of heavy-duty pylons on the inner side.

But it has only been less than three years, and the navy has changed its requirements, to meet the design requirements of 2 tons, which at least means that the new anti-ship missile will definitely exceed the C-803 missile, and the supersonic long-range cruise missile will definitely not escape.

Commander Zhang of the Navy also knows that there is no need to keep this secret from Yang Hui, anyway, this missile is also developed for the J-18, and it must be a project with a high degree of communication with Southwest Science and Industry.

"That's right, after our study and reflection on the Gulf War this time, we found that the performance of the YJ-8 series anti-ship missiles we used is already somewhat insufficient, even if the range of the missiles is increased, it is not of much significance, as long as the warhead of the missile is not powerful enough, it is very difficult to hit a large warship with one shot."

It can be seen that this time, the navy was a little dissatisfied with Iraq's use of C-801 missiles to attack the US ** ship, and the two missiles did not sink the US 7,000-ton destroyer without all hits, not to mention the itchy destructive power of a C-801 missile to the two warships Tikon and Raider.

As long as the Navy understands the situation, it will definitely have a new idea: "So we ask for a sub-super combined anti-ship missile with a weight control of 1.7-2 tons, and only in this way can we achieve a missile hit, that is, seriously damage and sink the American Ticonderoga-class cruiser."
