What has attracted the world's attention the most is the military construction of the UME.

According to the data released by the government, this year's defense budget is 71 billion US dollars, which is nothing more than a riot for a country with only 35,000 troops! This year, the second Dragon King-class strategic nuclear submarine and the second Leviathan-class cruiser will be launched to strengthen the navy.

The number of FM-1 fighters of the Air Force will reach 35, the aerospace fighter project will maintain funding for research and development, the army war robots will be diversified and developed, and the army equipment part will begin to be marketed to the outside world.

In terms of space, UME is still highly skilled in rocket launch and recovery, and still attaches great importance to the construction of space elevators - the elevator base has been started in the equatorial sea. To this end, the military base in Seychelles also prepares an Oceanosaur-class destroyer.

The state has issued a law specifically for it, referred to as the "Space Elevator Law", which revolves around the operation and protection of elevators, which particularly emphasizes that any attack on the space elevator is equivalent to a nuclear attack on the UME, and they will take severe countermeasures.

The U.S. media is lively again, and they jump out, lest the world be chaotic and point out: UME previously promulgated the "no first use of nuclear" law, and when the elevator law coincides with it, it is easy to conclude that if we attack the elevator, we will use nuclear weapons to counterattack.

The world is shocked, it's really enough!

But no one, including the United States, dared to try. India, which once tried this, has already beaten them up; Judging from experience, this country says one is one, and it says that the consequences of attacking the elevator are serious. That must be a more serious truth than they say.

Why does UME place so much emphasis on space development?

After the rendering of the media, the clue finally pointed to one point: UME is going to engage in a space race!

Space has also always been a strategic priority for major powers. During the Cold War, the United States used the Star Wars program to drag down the Soviet Union, and the time has come to this day. China, the United States, Russia and Europe are all committed to the development of space industry, China has landed on the moon, the United States has landed on Mars, what does UME want to do?

There was no official answer, but they were certainly very determined. The media also summed up the characteristics of low operating cost and heavy load of elevators, which will be a weapon for space competition in the future. After these news were transmitted back to the United States, the other side has developed a space elevator, what about the powerful United States?

Therefore, some congressmen proposed that the United States should also vigorously develop the space industry, and the space elevator is a desirable means, and the United States cannot lag behind. Even if elevators are not developed, cheaper space methods must be grasped, otherwise they will be overtaken by opponents......

After the media exaggerated the viewpoint, the United States also intends to develop a space elevator.

Then, the U.S. presidential cabinet and think tanks, in accordance with the development trend of UME, also formulated a new competition plan, not only in space, but also in all aspects of land, sea, air and space. At the same time, a competition will be launched against China, Russia and UME.

That's right. The United States has brought their Cold War mentality with them.

Since it is difficult for the means of hot war to break out, then engage in conspiracy. First of all, for the UME country, although they have strong scientific and technological strength, they have a small population and a small territory. They are not born with the ability to engage in large-scale competition, and hot-headedness will only make their national strength short.

The plan of the Americans is to deliberately stimulate the development of the UME in all aspects, using the power of the media and propaganda. Let the two sides compare in all respects, UME plans to launch four cruisers. And the United States has more than a dozen aircraft carriers, and they must at least have their own aircraft carriers!

U.S. warplanes, warships. For the development of the Moon and Mars, they have also exerted pressure on UME through various channels, so that they have to keep up and spend money in order to maintain their advantage...... However, the GDP of the United States is twenty trillion, and the UME is only one trillion, how to play?

……

This kind of thinking does stimulate them to a certain extent.

The United States is sending more troops to the Indian Ocean region, targeting the competitive development of UME equipment, targeting their strike weapons, and targeting the infiltration of their neighbors...... pressure is exerted on all sides. Even if it knows that the United States is deliberately instigating, the UME must confront it in order to protect its homeland security.

After the opening of parliament in the new year, a number of plans were announced: the development of space, the development of aerospace fighters; Advance the development of the navy, land and air force, and develop more cutting-edge equipment; Purchase a sufficient amount of equipment on the existing basis to cope with the instability of the national defense and regional situation.

The Americans calculate that it will cost at least hundreds of billions to do so.

A few hundred billion may not be a big deal for the United States, but for UME, it is almost the sum of their fiscal revenues -- when they come back to their senses and want to stop, the United States can exert appropriate pressure and send more troops and advanced equipment, and the small size of the country is doomed to be impossible to relax!

It only takes a few years for them to be brought to a pulp.

The Americans' small abacus is playing well, and the performance of UME is also in line with the signs of taking the bait, but what about the reality?

The biggest mistake of the United States is that it does not take into account the fact that its opponents are open-minded. The Americans believe that they need tens of billions of dollars and years of money-burning technology, but it is likely that it is already a technology that has been proven for a long time, and it is only a billion dollars to be realized in reality.

On the surface, the UME took the bait, but in fact they followed the original plan all along.

The top government officials have made a more realistic plan through the performance of equipment in the Malaysia-India war: UME is not a huge country, and defense is the mainstay, so there is no need to develop too much equipment. Not to mention the cost of equipment, it is not affordable to maintain, and high-precision equipment means that it costs money.

Therefore, the government has publicized the plan of "its own aircraft carrier" in a high-profile manner, and on the other side, it has secretly reduced the number of arms purchases, reducing the original four Dragon King Whale-class submarines to three, one deployed in the Indian Ocean, one in the Atlantic, and one in the mainland for repair or patrol, which is sufficient.

They will also reduce the $5 billion Leviathan-class cruiser to three — and it will stop building it for the time being when another one is launched next year. Shipyards will use some of the technology to develop foreign trade models, or wait for more than ten years before exporting.

With the remaining funds plus budget funds, the shipyard will start the "own aircraft carrier" project, which is very high-profile and has already been full of cannons before construction has started, so that the whole world will notice. The United States, which thinks that it is behind the scenes, is very happy that its prey has taken the bait.

Soon after, the government also released some of the performance data.

This aircraft carrier will not follow the example of any aircraft carrier in the world. Because it will use a large area of room temperature superconductors, which means that it can achieve suspension above the ground. Like the Hanging Gardens project in Liberty City, the technology will work with Superconductors. Build a hovering aircraft carrier.

Depending on the strength of the superconductivity and magnetic field, it can levitate 5 to 30 meters above the ground, powered by two megawatt fusion reactors, propelled by eight turbofan engines, a total of four groups, located in front of and behind the mothership, and is expected to reach a maximum speed of 650 km/h.

In terms of equipment, the tonnage of the aircraft carrier will not be too large, and it is expected to accommodate 55 aircraft. Capable of carrying fighters, AWACS, transport aircraft, bombers and helicopters, etc., the drone is launched using magnetic rails, which only require a super short distance like an electromagnetic cannon.

In terms of defensive weapons, the carrier will be equipped with three laser cannons, two electromagnetic cannons and anti-aircraft and anti-submarine missiles. The island is also equipped with advanced radar and electronic countermeasures systems, with a 98 percent degree of automation, and only 25 officers and men are required to maintain it.

This news is announced. The whole world is amazed!

Although film and television works have fantasy flying aircraft carriers, there is no theoretical support in practice, and the Avengers kind is even more nonsense. Until today, after UME announced this plan. It is already very feasible in theory, and superconducting levitation can indeed achieve a height of about 20 meters, and the problem of "off the ground" is solved.

As for the eight engines that use nuclear power. History is also not without nuclear-powered aircraft, during the Cold War. Both the United States and the Soviet Union have developed nuclear-powered aircraft and have made many test flights. Later, because the intercontinental missiles were stronger and better, the nuclear-powered aircraft program was canceled.

Nuclear-powered aircraft are a bit chicken, but nuclear-powered flying aircraft carriers are the finishing touch!

Compared with traditional aircraft carriers, its speed is as high as 650 kilometers per hour, which is enough to abuse the speed of the American Ford-class at 30 knots (55 kilometers per hour) to the corners of the solar system!

Not to mention that it has long gone beyond the concept of an aircraft carrier, it does not sail on the sea surface at all, it is suspended for 20 meters, and in addition to the sea surface, it can also drive to land without hindrance!

To say that it is an "aircraft carrier" is already condescension, this guy is simply a huge flying fortress, a helicarrier, an air ammunition depot, a plug-in bomber!

From heaven to earth to the sea, who can stop it?

A mothership with unlimited range can carry more than 50 fighter jets for global operations and hundreds of nuclear missiles to show off its might; A random acceleration can make the anti-ship missile lose its target, and the suspension can make the torpedo "look at the sky and sigh".

Once this aircraft carrier is completed, it will certainly rewrite the traditional equipment pattern.

After the news was announced, the Americans were also shocked, these crazy human beings! I thought that I was going to stimulate UME to burn money on nuclear-powered aircraft carriers behind the back of the United States, but I didn't expect them to burn a nuclear-powered aircraft...... It has made the United States itch too.

UME's media have already boasted all over the world, saying that as long as there is this aircraft carrier, it is no longer a dream to cross the African continent, and it is no problem to hit the interior of Antarctica!

Its combat effectiveness is comparable to that of six surface aircraft carriers, and its defensive capability can make the three-aircraft carrier fleet helpless...... Always exaggerated and blown.

And they are not slow at all, new projects have already begun in the shipyard, judging by the length and specifications, it must be a new type of aircraft carrier.

UME also released several concept art, which made military fans enjoy.

Because it is a low-altitude flight mode, it is different from the layout of previous aircraft carriers, its body is streamlined, to conform to a certain aerodynamics, the ship island is also streamlined, as far as possible to reduce air resistance;

Its carrier-based aircraft catapult and flight modes all use electromagnetic mode, which is faster and more accurate; It is capable of taking off three times as many aircraft at a time than surface carriers;

Its eight engines are located in four positions underneath, and the nozzles are adjustable, which will help the carrier steer or evade maneuvers in the air.

This concept map was posted, and the whole world was envious.

Even the Americans are no exception, the president is already under pressure from Congress, why can't we develop such an aircraft carrier? What if UME is built and then exported to other countries – which they seem to mean at the moment – what will the United States do?

What should the President of the United States do if he is worried? Could it be that the United States also spent hundreds of billions to build one?

This idea is slowly fermenting, and in order to maintain the hegemony of the United States, it must be created! Otherwise, when the opponent has it, not to mention the status, it is possible to give way!

This group of emotional American politicians did not expect that they had already been caught up in the competition trend of UME to bring new equipment, and they had to compete.

The arms race is no longer up to one side to decide. (To be continued.) )
