Chapter 1758: We Want Jets (Plus 2)
"The head of the Shirek, the commander of the island navy, Koga Feng, is visiting." At this moment, Ribbentrop's report made Ciric turn his head.
Some time ago, the United States launched a terrible bombing campaign that flattened Midway Island, and the most important officer of the island nation, Pheasant 56, also died as a result.
The strategic advantage that the island nation had easily accumulated was lost, and now, Koga Mine, the successor of Pheasant 56, has begun his visit to Germany after taking office, after taking office, he has finished handling various affairs.
Koga Feng is a civilian official, although he does not have a long-term strategic vision, he can also see clearly that Germany is about to become the master of the world, and at the same time, the island country has always been a friend of Germany, and now, if the island country wants to take revenge on the United States, it needs to rely on Germany's help.
With this in mind, Koga Feng came to Europe with his entourage, and at the same time, he also met the head of the empire smoothly.
"Führer Ciric, it's a pleasure to meet you, please take care of me." Koga Feng bent his waist halfway, quite politely.
This kind of politeness is the tradition of the people of the island country, and it would be wrong to think that this is politeness, because Shirek knows this nation too deeply.
"You are in Greenland, you have taught the Americans a hard lesson, which excites us so much, and now, the Americans will definitely collapse completely under the blow of the German Empire." After a few pleasantries, Koga quickly got to the point: "We also want to do our part for the destruction of the United States, so we need your help." ”
Sure enough, he was going to ask for help, Ciric secretly thought to himself in his heart, in the past, the debt owed by the island people has not been paid off, and now, what do the island people want to ask for help?
Warships or something, Germany will not give it anymore, until the balloon bombs of the islanders, they can encourage themselves, thinking of this, Ciric already has basic thoughts.
That's it.
"What do you want?" Ciric asked.
If there is something to escort an aircraft carrier, a battleship or something, Ciric can say that he is about to land across the sea, and there is no time, and the construction period will be in the back row, so it is good to fool him.
After speaking, Ciric held a cup of tea in his hand, although it is popular in Europe and coffee, but Ciric still prefers tea from the East, which tastes more delicious.
Who knows, the words spoken by the other party made Ciric almost squirt out in one gulp.
"I heard that you have started mass production of jets, and we want you to provide the technology for jets."
The tea that had just entered the esophagus almost flowed out of his nostrils, and Ciric put down the teacup at once, looking at this Koga Peak who didn't know the height of the sky, you are your wet nurse when the empire, what do you want? Actually want jet technology?
In history, the island people asked for it, and the empire really gave it.
Due to the pressures of war, equipping fighter jet engines has always been a goal for countries with advanced aviation technology before and after World War II. Germany and Britain were the first to put jet engines into combat aircraft and put them into practical use, while island nations that have long kept a close eye on the European battlefield and military technology developments have naturally noticed the huge potential of jet engines.
When the advantage of the zero war passed, it was tragically shot into a turkey by "Hellcat" fighters and other fighters, and the backward aviation engine was an important reason why the island nation believed that it lost on the battlefield.
Therefore, the island countries urgently need advanced aircraft, especially jet aircraft, and this has become an important spiritual sustenance for the naval aviation of the island countries in the hope of achieving a reversal in the Pacific theater.
Historically, in January 1943, the island nation and Germany formally signed the German-Japanese Economic Treaty, in which the two countries agreed to cooperate comprehensively in the exchange of raw materials, military equipment, finished products, technical assistance and technical drawings.
Soon, the military attache of the island state in Berlin, on behalf of the island government, submitted a formal official request to the German side, hoping that the German side would provide the island country with aviation jet engine technology. Two months later, Luftwaffe Field Marshal Hermann Goering decided to provide the relevant technical information. This included the training of technicians in the use and maintenance of jet engines, the agreement to purchase production licenses for the Me 163 and Me 262, as well as the production licenses for the Junkers Jumo 004 and BM 003 axial turbojet engines, and the provision of all flight test data and production know-how for the Me 262.
It can be said that almost all the jet engine technology of the empire has been provided to the island nation.
At that time, if the island nation could contain the United States, it would be of great help to the empire.
And now, the situation is different, and before the defeat of the USSR, the empire needs the containment of the island nations, which with the end of the war in the USSR no longer matters.
If the technology provided to the island country's jets allows the island country to have advanced fighters, it will not be conducive to the future, and Ciric does not have much good impression of the island country, and has never formed an alliance, just to use each other.
Now, the island country has almost no use value, how can this advanced jet be given to the island country!
German jets have developed into the second generation, and the Storm Bird fighter is almost similar to the MiG-15 of later generations, and it is supposed that it is possible to provide them with technology such as the ME262, but Ciric does not want to do this.
Of course, Ciric doesn't need to deny it, since the other party has proposed it, denying that the empire doesn't have this thing seems petty.
"This is the latest technology of the Empire, and we are happy to provide it to you." Ciric said, and when he said this, the eyes of the visitors in front of him suddenly lit up, and they didn't even know that Ciric had a turning point behind him.
"However, jet technology is very advanced, it requires a lot of new elements, and you don't have the resources to make it, even if you give it to you, you can't build it." Ciric said.
This is not lying, the turbine blades of the jet are the latest technology of the Imperial Metallurgy, and a lot of rare metals have been added, and the island nation is not good at all.
"So what about we order the engine directly from you?" Koga Feng followed up and said, we don't build the engine, we build the body, and the engine is imported directly from Germany, isn't it okay? Not to mention the body, we can't build it!
"Our own production is limited, and we don't have enough to supply our own fighters." Cirek said, thinking for a while: "Well, after three years, there should be excess production capacity, and after three years, we will provide it to you at cost price!" ”
Three years later? It's the Year of the Monkey, so it's too late, right?
"Great Führer, we really desperately want to have it now, can you give us a small share?" Koga Mine continued.
Hearing this, Ciric's face became serious: "Everyone, you only saw our victory, do you know how much we lost in a sea and air battle with the Americans?" ”
