Chapter 765: Rally Ability
"General Lin, thank you for your support, without you, I am not qualified to participate in these meetings." Qin Feng said.
The meeting was over, and Qin Feng and General Lin were sitting in a corner of the restaurant, chatting while eating.
"The future belongs to you young people, and I'm old." General Lin sighed and said: "It is not easy for you to see the future war situation, you will definitely go further, at today's meeting, most people do not agree with your point of view, this is beneficial, and when the war breaks out, they will realize their mistakes." ”
Today, General Lin asked Qin Feng to give a lecture and expounded on the air combat situation on the modern battlefield, although Qin Feng said it very well, but for most people, those are too illusory, to say that the Iraqi Air Force does not even have the ability to fight, they really can't believe it.
Then, when the war really breaks out, when Qin Feng's predictions become reality, at that time, they will realize their mistakes, and also realize how accurate Qin Feng's judgment is, then, it will be of great benefit to Qin Feng's future development.
Qin Feng's heart was inexplicably moved, he was able to make this judgment because he was constantly in contact with the advanced knowledge of the West, they knew the future trend of the war, and many senior officers of the Air Force were still holding illusions, thinking that they could rely on numerical superiority and rely on the spirit of not being afraid of death to fight, that era had already passed, and this war would wake them up. At the same time, they will also recognize Qin Feng's correctness, then, Qin Feng will have a bigger stage in the Air Force.
General Lin asked Qin Feng to make a report, he was actually cultivating Qin Feng, thinking of this joint, how could he not be grateful to General Lin?
"General Lin, in today's report, in fact, I still haven't said something." Qin Feng said: "Compared with the real battle, we should see other aspects, for example, the ability to assemble before the start of the war, the rapid mobilization ability shown by the Americans, which is incomparable to us!" ”
For the United States, this is a godsend, so the Americans are moving quickly, and now, there are a large number of American fighter groups flying to Saudi Arabia from all over the world, and all kinds of large transport planes are constantly running back and forth on various routes to transport all kinds of materials.
In terms of this strategic transport capacity, there is still a gap in the country, and the United States is already so powerful that it is perverted.
"The largest transport aircraft in the United States is the C5, which has a maximum take-off weight of more than 300 tons, which can transport more than 100 tons of cargo at a time, and their main battle tanks can be directly airlifted over when needed, as well as their C141 transport aircraft, which can transport 200 heavily armed US soldiers at a time."
When Qin Feng said this, he was extremely envious, the strength of the United States is reflected in these aspects, in terms of air transportation, it is an unrivaled king!
Now, they have put in more than 300 transport planes, and they have been transporting equipment to Saudi Arabia non-stop by means of air refueling, and only recently, they have transferred the 82nd Airborne Division in an organized manner.
Look at the country again, the most advanced transport aircraft in China, is the Y-8, this kind of aircraft is a survey and mapping imitation of the An-12 transport aircraft, the maximum take-off weight is only 60 tons, the load capacity is only 20 tons, not to mention the main battle tank, the light infantry fighting vehicle can barely transport.
Not only is the transportation capacity low, but the number is also insufficient, and it is simply not able to respond to emergencies.
"Yes, this air transportation capacity is a big shortcoming for us, but we are also very helpless." General Lin said: "So far, we have only developed our own fighter force, which is already stretched, and the rest can only be extended backwards, and we do not have the need for global deployment now, and at home, we will mainly rely on road and rail transportation to meet our needs." ”
This is also a difference in the combat objectives of the army, the domestic army, as long as it guards the territory of its motherland, once there is a situation somewhere, you can take a train to go over, even if there is a transport plane, that kind of luxury mode of transportation, it is not costly.
Perhaps, wait until later, you can have this ability, General Lin looked at Qin Feng, I don't know if I can wait until that day, but you, for sure, can see that we will make our own large transport planes, and they will fly into the sky of the motherland!
"I mean, if our Air Force had the capacity to spare, it would be nice to recommend importing their transport planes from the Soviet Union, for example, the Il-76." Qin Feng said.
Large super strategic transport aircraft, such as the An-124 and C5 Galaxy transport aircraft, don't even think about it, that kind of aircraft can't be bought, can be bought, can only be this first-stage model, the Soviets' Il-76, is the same level as the C141 transport aircraft, the maximum take-off weight of this transport aircraft is about 200 tons, can transport about 50 tons of materials, if this kind of transport aircraft can be imported, it will make the air force's transport capacity a big increase.
"Not only has our air transport capacity been improved, but also this transport aircraft can also be converted into an early warning aircraft, in the Soviet Union, the Il-76 was used to modify the An-50 transport aircraft, which shows that this transport aircraft has a good flight control ability, and the large plate at the top is also equipped with a stable flight, general, this war will inevitably highlight the advantages of the air early warning aircraft, and we also need to have an air early warning aircraft, otherwise, we will not be able to win in the future war!"
Qin Feng's words made General Lin ponder, and even the wine glass in front of him was unattractive.
That's right, Qin Feng is right, the Air Force still needs AWACS aircraft!
If you want to have an airborne early warning aircraft, the first thing is to have a qualified platform, in the West, it mainly relies on passenger aircraft, but there are no passenger planes in the country, and those passenger planes imported by the civil aviation department are destined not to be used for military purposes, otherwise it will be a violation of the agreement.
In terms of military use, there is really only one way to import the Il-76 from the Soviet Union.
However, if you want to introduce transport aircraft, you can't do it for the time being, because the country has no money!
General Lin looked at Qin Feng and patted him on the shoulder: "That's right, your idea is very good, if I have the opportunity, I will report to my superiors, as for now, we still try to promote the import of the Su-27 first, and strive to let it enter our Air Force as soon as possible!" ”
