Chapter 425: The Only Fear

Since Yang Hui announced the success of the 416 naval battle, the progress of the cooperation negotiations of the entire FC-17 project team has accelerated again, and it is true that as Malaysia and Brazil said, the parties are no longer entangled in some details, although there will still be some disputes, but they are quickly resolved under the mediation of all parties.

On the sixth day, the details of the entire FC-17 project were finally finalized, and after inviting the leaders of all parties in the imperial capital, the final detailed contract signing ceremony was held again at the State Guesthouse, which means that the entire project will be launched.

"In this case, then I wish our cooperation a smooth success, and I hope that our FC-17 joint combat attack aircraft can be successfully developed, and I will start the manufacture of the first full prototype as soon as I return."

This is a very good statement, so that all parties feel the efficiency of Southwest Science and Industry. After going back, he immediately started the prototype manufacturing, which is really worthy of the Southwest Science and Industry Famous for its research and development speed, and there are indeed two brushes.

"Then we will wait for the good news of Southwest Science and Industry, I hope that the day of our FC-17 first flight will not be too far away, and we will be able to receive the funds as soon as we return to China, so there is no need to worry about this."

In this way, the entire FC-17 project was actually the first project to borrow the power of victory in the 416 naval battle, and the high-level officials of the imperial capital, who were also considering the follow-up of the 416 naval battle, also had some ideas, and the biggest call was to take advantage of the victory to pursue and spit out all the remaining islands and reefs in the Nanhai Sea that Vietnam had swallowed a few years ago.

And the voices of those who have the upper hand are not all voices, and some of the more sensible or pessimistic people have raised a very difficult question. This is the biggest obstacle in front of the Victory Pursuit faction.

is still the personable Mei Zhang Lang, his words and opinions are still so sharp, and his behavior and actions are very profound interpretation of the truth that the canopy is destroyed in the middle of talking and laughing.

"I'm not against taking advantage of the victory to pursue Vietnam. On the contrary, I am very much in favor of taking advantage of the aftermath of this battle to pursue and take back the islands occupied by Vietnam, but the problem is that if we want to take back these islands occupied by Vietnam, we need to send naval surface ships to carry out landing operations, and most of these islands are relatively close to the coast of Vietnam, and they can be supported by Vietnamese air power at any time. ”

Director Zhang carefully explained his worries, and no matter how big an official the person who listened to his eloquent talk was, Director Zhang never told the truth. As long as he feels it is right, he will say that maybe sometimes it is different from the mainstream view, but so what. Truth is always alone.

Regarding Director Zhang's worries, in fact, it has been said a long time ago, and Commander Liu himself has heard it more than three times, which is why Commander Liu is in such an important high-level meeting. The reason why Director Zhang was specially called to participate.

That's it. Commander Liu is not too pretentious, and directly says the problem he is most worried about now, as long as this problem is solved, everything else will be easy to handle.

"This is the director of our Navy's Advanced Tactical Research Bureau, Zhang, who led the team to complete the aerial refueling technology, compiled a complete air refueling outline, and at the same time has a deep study of the naval combat environment around our country, and his worries are also the problems that our navy is afraid of now. In the event of an attack on the islands occupied by Vietnam, our ships would inevitably be exposed to the fire of Vietnamese Su-22 attack aircraft. This Su-22 attack aircraft can also carry anti-ship missiles. ”

When it comes to anti-ship missiles, Commander Liu's meaning is self-evident. After the Republic, it was able to defeat the Vietnamese Navy in the 416 Naval Battle, relying on the power of anti-ship missiles, if Vietnam also had anti-ship missiles

Just when many bigwigs were still thinking, Director Zhang stood up again and showed his tongue.

"The 051 destroyer, the main force of our naval surface ships, is the development of the Soviet Kotlin-class destroyer, and its combat capability is almost the same as the eight Kotlin-class destroyers that we sank this time, not to mention the 053 frigates, and although our 052 destroyers have improved compared with 051, they are still insufficient and still small, and the air defense capability is not as we expected."

As a naval researcher, Director Zhang naturally has a clear understanding of the equipment situation of his own navy, and the 051 and 053 are both old ships, and the attack of anti-ship missiles is probably not much better than that of Kotlin. The current 052 destroyer is still the lowest configuration version, which is not the kind of 052C/D type that will explode in later generations.

Although Director Zhang's words are difficult for people to accept, as long as anyone with brains can understand that what he said is not false at all, and the navy must solve the threat of Vietnam's anti-ship missiles if it wants to pursue it while it is victorious.

Otherwise, if Vietnam had just beaten Vietnam with anti-ship missiles not long ago, and then Vietnam would have treated it in its own way, the international community would not have laughed off its big teeth.

Although he was very reluctant to admit it in his heart, but this is the case, the chief designer who had been pondering for a long time also raised his head, feeling that this question was more tricky, and then asked Commander Liu if there was any way to solve it, and Commander Liu's solution was.

"Chief Designer, there are not many ways for us to crack the threat of these anti-ship missiles in Vietnam to our naval ships, in general there are two ways of thinking. One is that the ships directly intercept these incoming missiles through hard power, and the other is to preemptively make these Vietnamese anti-ship missiles unable to launch and rot in warehouses. ”

Hearing Commander Liu's two ideas for solving the problem, everyone did not hesitate to give up the first middle idea, this method is completely unsafe, as strong as the British, the navy could not completely intercept anti-ship missiles in the Falklands naval battle, not to mention the current naval strength of the republic.

Thinking of the current situation of the navy ships, the chief designer could only sigh for a long time, and then asked out loud.

"Then let's talk about the second way of solving the problem, I will hear how you are going to let Vietnam rot these anti-ship missiles in warehouses, if it is feasible, we will approve the plan, and we should get our things back."

Speaking of this, the chief designer was full of resoluteness, it was really too much of Vietnam to die, it was really a way to heaven that he didn't go, and hell had no way to break in.

After Commander Liu understood the idea of the chief designer, at this time he also came up with the combat plan that he had begun to prepare more than a year ago, which was a plan that the navy had planned for a long time, and the feasibility was very high now.

"The so-called preemptive strike, this point in the Six-Day War in the Middle East, Israel gave us a good example, in order to completely obtain battlefield air supremacy, then we need to take the first step to destroy the enemy's fighter planes on the airport runway. Vietnam's anti-ship missiles rely on Su-22 fighters to mount and launch, what we need to do is to destroy these Su-22s, reconnaissance information shows that the Vietnamese Navy Su-22 is all stationed together, which is very conducive to our attack. ”

As soon as this plan came out, it made the eyes of the big guys shine, and the navy's combat plan is really more reliable, if Vietnam's Su-22 is destroyed on the runway, there is indeed no need to worry about anything.

Waiting for Commander Liu's plan to follow, this kind of combat plan is indeed very attractive, which is very different from the army flat push flow operation that the Republic has always used, which is eye-catching.

"To destroy these Su-22s on the runway, we need to have a strong long-range attack force, and the use of ballistic missiles is the best way, but this is too much of a move, and it is easy to cause miscalculation between the two major powers of the United States and the Soviet Union, so our navy did not consider it. What we plan is to use HNA planes to carry out aerial bombing, and there are two ways to carry out aerial bombing, and we are more inclined to the first one: the Jian-74 will carry the attack load, carry out in-flight refueling, and then enter Vietnam from the sea for ultra-low-altitude surprise operations.
