Chapter 746: It's All Changed

Yang Hui also expressed considerable sympathy for the US Navy's suffering, in a sense, this kind of encounter of having technology and economic strength, but being cut by the master of Capitol Hill in various strange names, compared with the fact that the technical ability of this dimensional republic is not enough, and the spirit of continuing to catch up with the advanced footsteps is indeed going to come to fruition, which will also be a big blow to morale.

Thinking about these new situations that have emerged after being instigated by his butterfly wings, Yang Hui believes that the impact will definitely not be just like this.

"If this is calculated, although the super Tomcat may be slightly better in attendance and reliability, but the super Tomcat with 3S performance will not be low in procurement, the cost of the whole life cycle, in the context of military spending being cut, the US Navy is definitely not only the research and development of new aircraft projects, the number of purchases of the Super Tomcat by the Lord of Congress will naturally not be too much, at most it should be a 1:1 replacement of the active F-14, so the US Navy may continue to give the Super Tomcat a light aircraft."

The Super Tomcat looks pretty good, but Yang Hui believes that such an aircraft will definitely not be in service until after 2000, and the purchase price of this guy will definitely be around $150 million, so there will definitely be a low-end fighter.

The only suspense now is to see whether the US Imperial Navy intends to continue to purchase some F-18C/D fighters, or re-develop a low-end fighter, anyway, at this time in 92, no matter whether the project can be established or not, what kind of low-end fighter the project is, Yang Hui dares to guarantee that in the end, it will be ninety-nine to one, and summoning the legendary generation of artifact F-35 fertilizer electricity must be expected.

"I haven't heard anything about this for the time being, but it stands to reason that the purchase price of this super Tomcat fighter will not be low, and a low-end fighter must be needed to use it, I think there will be a result soon, take a look at the situation for the time being, I will pay close attention to the latest trends over there, and report it as soon as there is news."

"That's okay, since you've returned to China this time, let's rest for a few days, I believe that the U.S. Navy has just announced the Super Tomcat project, and it will definitely not announce the development of the next project soon, you can go back to the United States after a while, anyway, I can probably guess some of this fighter used as a low-end match, it is very likely that it is a fourth-generation stealth aircraft positioned similar to F-16, and it will be a good idea when the time comes."

Thinking of this, Yang Hui also smiled, this time the super Tomcat will definitely reach the cost of 150 million US dollars in the end, and then the US Navy will fall into the big pit of F-35, not only various problems in the middle continue to occur, but also the service time will continue to be delayed, and the cost has repeatedly soared to the position of up to 200 million US dollars, even if the cost can be reduced after mass production, I am afraid it will reach 150 million US dollars.

Think about the positioning of the super Tomcat this time is a multi-purpose heavy fighter, and when the time comes, another F-35 that is also a positioning multi-purpose will come out, the same is an offer of about 150 million US dollars, and even the same can only reach the 3S index, the difference is that one cannot overcruise, one cannot be stealth, and then sit and watch the US Navy all kinds of eggs hurt.

And what does the egg hurt? Of course, although this plane has chosen a super Tomcat with better combat effectiveness than the Super Hornet, if it encounters a real opponent at sea, it will also face the embarrassing situation of not having a real fourth-generation heavy air supremacy fighter in the previous plane, and this plane republic has the appearance of Yang Hui, if you can't get a fourth-generation aircraft in advance, it will definitely be impossible.

Therefore, when the Super Tomcat is in service, even if it is much better than the Super Hornet, but in the face of the more advantageous combat environment of this dimensional republic, even the Super Tomcat will probably be powerless, at most it can form some advantages over the J-18, but what does that sentence say.

You must know that this plane republic is also the introduction of the 27 series of heavy fighters, and because of the strong foundation of this plane, if you really want to create a third-generation semi-heavy fighter that can wrestle with the super Tomcat, it is not impossible.

Although the super Tomcat has all the 3S requirements except for stealth, especially the supersonic cruise index is a little surprising, but you can't deny that the two sides of the Republic of China Aviation Northeast and Sukhoi of this plane, after the emergence of AVIC Southwest, which is not only domestic but also international, the two sides will be able to mix together because of the huge pressure, and then make a magic modified version of the Su27 that can overcruise, after all, there is a super Tomcat case there, and who knows this

Although it is very likely that in the face of the selection of naval carrier-based fighters, in the multi-purpose combat attack aircraft project, the big deal is that the J-18 in the southwest of AVIC is not selected, and this position is given to the flying shark on the side of Fengtian, I believe that even if Fengtian is not good, the flying shark in this plane can be stronger, and it is not impossible to fight against the super Tomcat.

In this way, although it was expected that the J-18 would have no chance to fight the Super Hornet of the United States at the beginning, the Republic could still come up with a heavy carrier-based fighter that was hard to resist the Super Tomcat head-on, and the premise was that the Republic aircraft carrier in this plane would no longer take the seesaw route, and judging from the current development situation, it seems that the Republic Navy in this plane does not have the need to take the seesaw route in terms of technology.

In the same way, using the three-and-a-half-generation heavy destroyer against the three-generation half-heavy destroyer is considered evenly matched, so when it comes to the real fourth-generation aircraft war in the aircraft carrier carrier-based aircraft project, it is easy to say, what can such a thing as fat electricity do? At that time, the Republic will definitely launch a fourth-generation heavy carrier-based fighter, or it is very likely that the Navy and Air Force will have one or two aircraft.

However, this time Yang Hui has roughly understood the aerodynamic scheme of the four generations of the chief engineer and the chief engineer Song, and it is expected that the United Aero Engine Company can provide an engine of the same level as the F-119, the two chief engineers are working hard to make their own plans, and the general aerodynamic layout of the two schemes Yang Hui is already clear, anyway, they are very good designs.

And no matter which plan it is, it can meet the requirements of the sea and air general, and Mr. Song's plan does not seem to be as big as the previous one, so there should be no problem in planning to get on the ship, and Mr. Yu's plan is to go to the sea and air general at the beginning, and then it will depend on which one the army chooses, as for the movement of the northeast side of AVIC in this regard, Yang Hui is not known for the time being.
