Chapter 609: When will these F-80 "Meteor" jets be mass-produced

"There are 20 to 30 Leopards, and the T-54 tank can only limit 30, and possibly even 25; Because of the natural resources and technical problems of making these tanks, we have not completely solved them! ”

"Although the model tank has come out, the equipment and technical parameters inside still need to be modified!"

In this regard, the factory director Dobol said seriously.

"Hmmm! If you need any help, try to offer it! If I can do it, I will do my best to equip you, and if I don't have the ability and authority, then I will react to the Führer, and he will definitely take care of it! ”

"Because the Führer attaches great importance to the production and manufacture of these tanks, these new tanks are now very much needed on our front to fight! Therefore, if the mass production can be completed one day earlier, then the tank forces of our empire will be able to comprehensively improve their combat effectiveness! ”

"Otherwise, we will be dragging our tank forces back! So I hope you can make a good progress! ”

After listening, Speer also responded with a solemn face.

Because the data given by the other party is similar to the data of other tank factories, there is not much difference.

So he didn't say anything, in fact, the current productivity is much better than when it was first developed, because when it was first manufactured, even the monthly output of 15 vehicles did not meet the standard.

But in the face of the United States and the Soviet Union, especially the industrial giants of the United States, it is even more vulnerable.

Others can use the number of piles to kill the current German tank productivity, so after Speer responded to the factory director Dobol, he was also thinking in his heart about how to improve the number of tanks that Chen Yanlong gave him again.

"The Führer's indicators are very high! With the current level of productivity, I'm afraid I still need to find a way to increase the production speed by 2 to 3 times, otherwise everything will be empty talk! ”

In the end, Speer made up his mind.

Then he looked at the green-painted Leopards and T-54 tanks; and their powerful, beautiful appearance, he was fascinated for a moment.

"The appearance of these two tanks is still quite good! It's beautiful! ”

Then he muttered to himself.

After visiting the tank production plant, Speer continued to inspect other airfields.

For the manufacture of aircraft types, Chen Yanlong now gives him only ME-262 fighters and Ta-152 fighters, as well as Ar-234 jet bombers.

As for the Do 217 and He-177 heavy bombers, they continue to be produced in small quantities, while the F-8D, AH-1 Cobra, Sumig-15, and F-86 Sabre fighters can only be studied because of the technical capabilities that will be produced immediately.

Therefore, Speer also focused all his energy on the types of jets and fighter jets that Chen Yanlong asked to produce.

By the time Speer went to the aircraft manufacturing plant, the US military had already produced eight F-80 "Meteor" jets, and President Roosevelt, accompanied by Henry Harry Arnold, commander of the Army Air Corps, and Brigadier General Franklin Carroll, commander of Army Air Force, "the father of the modern American Air Force," once again visited the F-80 Meteor jet manufacturing plant at Whitepatterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio.

"How can we have a monthly production now? When will these F-80 "Meteor" jets be mass-produced? ”

President Roosevelt, who was in a wheelchair, asked anxiously as soon as he arrived inside the factory.

"At most, the monthly production is about 32 aircraft, and this number still has to be produced in cooperation with another aircraft manufacturing plant, Your Excellency!"

Hearing this, Robert J. Stevens, one of the heads of the American Lockheed company responsible for the F-80 "Meteor" jet, immediately replied.

For this world-famous arms dealer, everyone in the military circles of various countries knows about it, so President Roosevelt is also very generous.

"Is there a way to improve a little more, now the new jet bombers and fighters of the German army are constantly killing the lives of our brave pilots and destroying the logistics of our army units on the front line!"

"Especially if this continues, I am afraid that our air supremacy on the European and Western Fronts, and even on the Eastern Front of the Soviet Army, will completely fall into the hands of the German army, and I believe you should know what kind of terrible consequences we will face once we lose our air supremacy! Your Excellency President Robert J. Stevens! ”

Hearing this, President Roosevelt spoke with unprecedented respect and respectful mildness.

"Yes! President! I know very well, so I will go all out to mass produce these new jet fighters, just because we have not yet perfected the German army in terms of jet aircraft research, we still need a little more time, but it will not be too long! ”

In this regard, President Robert J. Stevens immediately said resolutely and seriously.
