Chapter 716: The Favored Fifth-Generation Aircraft
The fifth-generation fighter is the general trend of the development of the air force in the 21 st century, and it has four main characteristics, the first is the stealth effect or low detectability, the second is the supersonic cruise capability, the second is the super-maneuverable ability, and the last is the super-information superiority, which are the four criteria for judging the fifth-generation fighter.
At present, the only fifth-generation aircraft internationally recognized as having actual combat capability and entering service is the well-known F-22 Raptor fighter, which is also the pride of the US Air Force. However, the Haidongqing-1 single-seat twin-engine supersonic all-weather heavy fighter secretly developed by the mercenary corps, although it is still in the secret stage, has been accepted by the militaries of various countries, because in the Gulf countries and the Golden Triangle Federation, such aircraft have long been in service.
In order not to arouse the vigilance of the US government, the high-level leaders of the Golden Triangle Federation and the mercenary corps have kept a low profile, and the strategy adopted is not to admit or deny the inquiries of news media reporters and the military of various countries, and you can say whatever you want.
However, the group of local tyrants in the Gulf countries were blind and violated the confidentiality agreement signed by the two sides, and even publicly declared to the news media that they had a fifth-generation fighter jet, and it was a classic model from Haidongqing Aerospace Manufacturing Company.
"Boss, after getting the report from the military attache of the embassy, the military high-level officials of more than 30 countries have come to Ukolan and want to visit our Shield Defender-2 stealth fighter, some countries are very interested in our refurbished weapons and equipment, how do you think this matter should be handled?" Marcus came to Wu Chen's villa and said.
"Since people can afford the fifth-generation aircraft developed by our mercenary corps, we can't ignore it, as long as the U.S. government has no opinion on the deal, I will naturally approve it. But this time, the prerequisite is that we only charge an advance payment, and we may specify technology or other conditions, but we will not accept mineral resources, and we will be hated if we occupy too much territory. ”
"You first go to explore the attitude of various countries, strictly speaking, we can't let too many countries have fifth-generation aircraft, that is a potential threat to the future Golden Triangle Federation and the Golden Triangle Federation International Cooperation Organization, as long as the US-led NATO does not collapse, they may be adversaries, and our production capacity is limited, and we have to equip ourselves." Wu Chen stretched out his hand and rubbed his waist, this action made Marcas only laugh, it looks like he tossed a lot last night!
"Boss, do you need me to get you some bark from Angola? Anyway, they are almost forty years old, don't be as fierce as young people, they are now the age of the most powerful fighters, look at you toss, this image is detrimental to the ...... of our mercenary legion" Marcas was saying when he was interrupted by a voice.
"Marcas, I see you're a little uncomfortable, do you want us to take Miss Lan to another place?" Sophia walked down the stairs with a look of shame, apparently hearing his bad intentions. No matter which girl is said to be excessively demanding, she will be angry in her heart, and it is natural to take some revenge next, and call you cheap!
"How dare you trouble you with this little thing, I'll leave now, I didn't say what I said just now!" Marcas saw Eva and Gucinata appear as well, turned around and slipped out of the living room, running faster than a rabbit.
His current weakness is Lan Jieying, when he is enjoying the world of the two, if she is taken away by these proprietresses, it will be too late to cry. Sophia's threat doesn't have to worry, she means to relieve hatred, but Eva can really do it.
"You guys are really, why are you scaring him, what is going on, you just need to know yourself, what do you care about what others say?" Wu Chen smiled and shook his head.
He is not as exaggerated as Marcus imagined, this bastard really dares to think, he can contact anything randomly, he is sitting next to his laptop to write a script, he has not moved a place for a night, and if he maintains a position for a long time, his cervical and lumbar spine will naturally be a little uncomfortable.
The military leaders of various countries acted quickly, and they arrived in Ukolan in just one day, and the sales of weapons and equipment of mercenary regiments are not as restricted as those of other countries, as long as there are enough benefits, they can get the fifth-generation aircraft at the peak of fighters, no country wants to miss such an opportunity, and only a few countries that have been blocked by American technology are excluded.
Huaxia did not have any senior military generals to participate in the negotiations this time, nor did it clearly express its intention to buy, because Huaxia knew very well that the US Government's hegemonic behavior had always been, and that the cutting-edge weaponry and technology of the mercenary corps would definitely be restricted by the US Government and would not be open to Huaxia.
As a big country that has inherited most of the legacy of the former Soviet Union, Russia hopes to develop and master the core technology of fifth-generation aircraft on its own and find its own way, so naturally it will not participate in this negotiation.
There is a more important reason, if the fifth-generation aircraft is purchased from the mercenary corps, the R&D and manufacturing capabilities of the Russian military industry will be questioned by customers, and the sale of fighter jets is the top priority of the arms trade and the most profitable project.
This time, India is not very willing to participate in the research and development of fifth-generation aircraft by the Russian military, because Russia's condition is that as long as India pays for it, the technology can be shared, so the two countries have no intention of buying.
"According to the private agreement we have reached with the US military industrial complex, we are not allowed to provide weapons and equipment to the European side, but there are no restrictions on cutting-edge equipment such as fifth-generation aircraft, which the United States has expressly prohibited from exporting, and the US Government has no face to ban the export of fifth-generation aircraft.
"Italy, Spain, Brazil, Argentina, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom and France, countries that have aircraft carriers or will soon have aircraft carriers, tend to our carrier-based aircraft and vertical take-off and landing fighters, Australia, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Canada, the Netherlands and Finland and other countries, tend to prefer vertical take-off and landing fighters and road-based fighters, and there are also some countries that tend to favor our second-hand fighters and bombers." Two days later, Marcas presented the preliminary results of the talks.
"All aircraft carriers can take off and land vertical take-off and landing fighters, as long as the deck is modified, there is no problem, however, only Saudi Arabia, Brazil and France can be equipped with twin-engine carrier-based aircraft, the former is an aircraft carrier manufactured by us, and the latter two are equipped with steam catapults."
"In fact, the single-engine vertical take-off and landing fighter is the most in line with the market demand model, the vast majority of countries can not afford to raise aircraft carriers, but there is still not much difficulty in raising one or two amphibious assault ships, and it is also a direction for the development of the navy, the price is temporarily set at 200 million US dollars, 280 million US dollars for carrier-based aircraft, and 320 million US dollars for road-based fighters. Wu Chen said.
