Chapter 273: High-altitude fighter aircraft project approval
The design of the Nightingale, although I don't know how much in terms of transport volume, can definitely transport main battle tanks.
Although the Nightingale is not as huge as the C-130D Hercules, it is by no means small in terms of transportation.
Huaxia is very weak in the field of transport aircraft, although there is now a Y-20 in service, but if it is really a large-scale service, it will not be possible until at least 2020, and Huaxia's main transport forces are large transport aircraft with the I-76, as well as transport aircraft with the theme of Y-9.
Although many people say that Huaxia has stepped into the ranks of large-scale transportation, many people know that this leap is not so easy to cross.
Although the Y-20 is good, there are still many problems in terms of transportation volume.
And now, there is a nightingale.
The most important thing is that the Nightingale is not just a transport aircraft, but on the surface, it can be used as a bomber.
Huaxia still has the Yun-20 on the transport aircraft, which can be put into service on a large scale in 2020, but on the bomber, there is only the God of War, this kind of bomber that has been delayed in service, although it has undergone modern modifications, but it still can't meet the future war, many military enthusiasts have fantasized about the storage of Huaxia's new bomb, but there is no news similar to the new bomber.
In the early years, there was similar news, but in the end it was a new generation bomber of the modern modification of the 6K.
The Nightingale can be used as a bomber, and the shell of the Nightingale is black, coupled with its triangular design, it can be completely changed to a stealth coating to improve the stealth performance of the Nightingale. Zhulan has stealth technology, which the military knows, then. It is quite possible that the Nightingale was a bomber, not a transport.
What's more, the military believes that Zhulan's nightingale has long been in existence, and there was no similar intelligence at all before, what does this mean? It shows that Zhulan must have stealth technology on the nightingale, evading the military's radar detection. If it weren't for the edge virus this time, I probably don't know how long it would take to know about the nightingale's storage.
The Nightingale can be used as a transport aircraft or as a bomber. Both of these points are Huaxia's soft help.
The nightingale touched the nerves of the military.
Because of the Nightingale's existence, the military held many meetings, and many high-ranking military officials hoped that the Fantasy Group would hand over the Nightingale unconditionally. The nightingale is too threatening.
Most people's minds are to take tough measures. There is no way, the nightingale touched two nerves of Huaxia, and these two are Huaxia's absolute soft help.
Gene potions, no matter what, gene potions are visible but invisible benefits, but the nightingale is completely different.
Large transport aircraft and stealth bombers have always been a soft aid for China, and now. Zhu Lan has it, which makes the military's face go there. And Zhulan, an ordinary person, made a stealth bomber out, what purpose?
Is there some secret to be hidden?
No matter what the situation is, Zhulan must be taken down.
That's what most people think.
A small number of people disagree, and the rest remain neutral and do not express their opinions.
Regarding the opinions of many people in the military, Xu Dezheng also has a headache. As the Minister of National Defense, Xu Dezheng naturally understands the changes that the Nightingale has brought to the military, and the Nightingale must be mastered, but the particularity of Zhulan has never dared to move casually.
There are many reasons for not moving Zhulan, one is the reason for the red queen.
Moreover, Zhu Lan hid something from the military, the military knew this, and what was revealed now was enough to shock the military, so what about the unrevealed?
If it weren't for the edge virus this time, maybe the military wouldn't have known about Nightingale's existence at all.
With the sky in front and the nightingale behind, the aircraft design mastered by Zhu Lan is very powerful, and it can make nightingales, which shows that there are many stores in the blue base that the military does not know, and the nightingale must have had a mission before, and the military's radar did not capture any traces, which shows that the stealth performance of the nightingale is very powerful.
Huaxia does not dare to say that it is the first in the world in terms of radar, but even if it is a raptor invasion, it can be found, and it can't find a nightingale, which shows a lot of problems.
Before the shaved whale, the military knew that Zhu Lan had mastered a lot of stealth technology, and on New Year's Eve, the military also captured the stealth coating on the blackbird that Zhu Lan dispatched.
It's just that it didn't start, so that the military radar could find out.
The military investigation found that Zhu Lan had his own set of ideas in aircraft manufacturing, and the military was even more suspicious that Zhu Lan had stolen US stealth technology.
Don't let the military not think like this, how powerful the Red Queen is, the military does not have a standard concept, once the military set up a temporary network group in the Southern Naval District, just to capture the traces of the Red Queen, but several times to capture, but in the end it still failed.
The final assessment is that the Red Queen can easily break into many networks, even military networks.
So will the Red Queen get the American stealth technology from the U.S. military's library to use on the Blackbird and the Nightingale?
There is complete evidence for this suspicion, because in the nightingale and the firmament, a lot of American design ideas are seen.
It is also true that whether it is a nightingale or a firmament, it is itself a product that imitates the military equipment of the United States, plus some new ideas.
The meeting was held many times, and the last chief couldn't stand it, so he directly issued an order remotely, asking the military to negotiate with Zhulan to solve the problem at a minimum, we are not robbers, don't always forcibly requisition or something.
Now that Chief No. 1 has already spoken, there is naturally no need to continue arguing.
Qin Jun came in person to negotiate the issue of the nightingale.
Qin Jun was no longer in charge of the Overseas Operations Department, but was transferred to the General Staff.
Although he is still a major general, there are already rumors that Qin Jun has been nominated for promotion to lieutenant general, but it may take several years to be determined.
When Qin Jun entered the General Staff, he was responsible for the research and development of new weapons in China, and began to formally contact the cutting-edge fields of China.
Zhu Lan had long thought that the military would come, but it was not strong enough to be the Qin army.
Since it's an acquaintance, it's easy to talk.
Zhu Lan didn't ask for anything, just said that the military would compensate him, and if he was satisfied, he would open the Nightingale's technology to the military.
In the end, after more than ten days of negotiations, there was the matter of opening the arms ban to the Fantasy Group, and because of the Nightingale, it also contributed to the establishment of the Sky Project.
Now that the design capabilities of the Fantasy Group have been determined, the sky itself is very needed, and the military has naturally set up the project.
The high-altitude fighter Huaxia Cun ZĂ i is the legendary J-18 heavy fighter.
But that's a legend, no one has ever seen the J-18, I don't know if it's the propaganda of netizens or the smoke bombs released by people with intentions.
For the establishment of the Sky Project, the Fantasy Group has also received a special grant of one billion yuan from the military, and there will be a special allocation of three billion yuan in the future, and this four billion yuan of money is completely a research fund for the Sky high-altitude fighter.
It seems like a lot, but this is already very small, and it is normal to study a high-altitude fighter plane with a research cost of tens of billions, four billion, which is not much.
The establishment of the firmament project, Zhu Lan was not ambiguous, on the edge of fantasy manufacturing, a fighter research and development center was established, and a group of people were transferred from the blue base, and another group was from Chengfei.
The firmament class high-altitude fighter is not a one-man undertaking of the Fantasy Group, but is developed in cooperation with Chengfei.
There is an element of game in this, whether it is the military, the state or the domestic military industrial enterprises, it is impossible to really let the fantasy group mess around, and cooperative development is the best way.
However, although Fantasy Group occupies the majority of this cooperative development, it is the largest funder.
The equipment is all undertaken by the fantasy group, and the state will undertake the materials, and what materials are needed can be provided by several domestic steel mills, of course, the cost is paid from the special fund.
Cheng Fei only needs to bring the designer to work.
It seems that the Fantasy Group has suffered a loss, but Zhu Lan understands that on the Sky Project, the Fantasy Group has made a lot of money.
Fighter research and development, this is not an industry that anyone can enter, the official entry of the Fantasy Group, which is not only a precedent, but more importantly, it is clear that the Fantasy Group of military industrial enterprises will not be so difficult in the future.
Although you will lose a lot of money, this ticket is not something that can be bought with money.
The second-generation gene enhancement liquid, the firmament-class high-altitude fighter plane, and the Nightingale transport plane, these three people directly made the country make a huge leap forward and gave the Fantasy Group greater authority.
Each of these three is a huge temptation for the military.
As Luo Guoqiang said, for the newcomer of the Fantasy Group, several domestic military enterprises have no opinion, because the Fantasy Group occupies some difficult bones, and it is best for them to clean up these difficult projects for themselves.
It's like a high-altitude fighter mission.
Although there are rumors about the J-18, no military enterprise can guarantee that it will really develop it.
Do not seek merit, but seek no fault.
Developed out that is good, if the research and development can not be done, then the next year's funding tilt, will definitely be reduced, the biggest difficulty of high-altitude fighters is the engine, although the Taihang engine has been developed, but the real situation, several domestic companies are very clear, the speed required by high-altitude fighters, to be honest, domestic engines can not meet such conditions.
If you really order research, you have to solve the problem of the engine first, and until this problem is solved, you will not be able to move on to the next stage.
Even if the engine is solved, the material is also a huge problem, under high-speed propulsion, the material requirements of the fighter are very strict, with the indicators required by the Ministry of Defense, the material strength of this high-altitude fighter is more terrifying than that of aerospace alloy, at least to support Mach 3.5 high-speed cruise, this alone can stump many companies, Fantasy Group undertakes the current high-altitude fighter, which is a blessing for them, of course, they will not let the country give Fantasy Group too much money.
