"Gentlemen, although there is still a big gap between our armament and the Germans. But I believe that we can close these gaps! President Roosevelt said.

At present, the United States has not yet participated in the war, and there is still an opportunity to concentrate its forces to develop its own strength. When the United States enters the war, their military strength will certainly be further enhanced.

"Yes, Your Excellency. In the future, the army will increase investment in the research and development of heavy tanks, and strive to start mass production of new heavy tanks within a year! "George? Lieutenant General Marshall said.

The U.S. Army is currently developing a number of tanks, including the M5 light tank, the M6 heavy tank, and the M26 heavy tank. Among them, the M5 light tank is a replacement for the M3 light tank, and the M6 heavy tank is a tank that is paired with the M5 light tank. Similar to the M3 light tank and M4 medium tank that the US Army is now equipped with. It was only after seeing the power of the German Navy's Haw Par tank that the U.S. Army urgently proposed to develop a heavy tank capable of suppressing the German Army's Haw Par tank. This also makes the development of the M26 heavy tank in this time and space much earlier than in another time and space.

It's just that the firepower of the M26 heavy tank in another time and space can rival the German 'King Tiger' tank. But in this time and space, the performance of the German Haw Par tank has been enhanced. Even if the M26 tank is in front of the 'Tiger' tank, I am afraid it will not take any advantage, not to mention the German Army's follow-up 'King Tiger' tank, the performance will be even more powerful!

President Roosevelt nodded with satisfaction, there was a gap, which was understandable, as long as he fought to catch up, he believed that the US Army would be able to catch up with the German Army. In the next war, they will certainly not lose to the Germans.

"Your Excellency, in addition to the weapons used by the Army, the German warplanes are also far ahead of the Russian Air Force and us. Specifically, General Arnold will introduce it! "George? Admiral Marshall said.

President Roosevelt looked at Henry, commander of the U.S. Army Air Corps? Harry? Admiral Arnold.

Before, Henry? Harry? Admiral Arnold is General Commander of the U.S. Army Air Corps and Deputy Chief of Army Staff. As the United States began to make all-out preparations for war and vigorously develop its military strength, the US Army Air Force was reorganized into an Army Air Force, and the number of troops and fighters began to increase by a large margin. Henry? Harry? Admiral Arnold became the first commander of the U.S. Army Air Corps.

"Your Excellency, Ladies and Gentlemen, judging from the various information we have received so far, the performance of the various types of fighters equipped by the Luftwaffe is indeed much more advanced than ours. There are two main types of fighters in the German Army, one is the BF-109 fighter that has begun to be equipped with the troops a few years ago, and the other is the F-190 fighter that has only recently been equipped with the troops.

The BF-109 fighter, with a maximum speed of 686 km/h and an altitude of 10,000 meters, is armed with a 30 mm cannon and two 12.7 mm machine guns. This fighter is very fast and has strong firepower. The overall performance, the US Army Air Corps is equipped with aircraft, which cannot be compared with it. Whether it is the P-36 fighter and P-39 fighter that are the main equipment in service now, and the P-40 fighter under development, the performance cannot be compared with it. In the event of an air battle between the two sides, our fighters will inevitably be suppressed by the German BF-109 fighters.

As for the F-190 fighter, at the moment we do not have the specific parameters of this fighter. But what is certain is that this is a fighter with more advanced performance than the BF-109 fighter, and it is the advanced fighter that the Luftwaffe plans to replace the BF-109 fighter. The performance of any of our fighters cannot be compared. ”

Henry? Harry? Admiral Arnold said.

The faces of the high-ranking military and political officials of the United States are not very good-looking. The US Army Air Corps is equipped with fighters that cannot even be compared to the BF-109 fighters, which are about to become obsolete by the Germans, let alone the more advanced F-190 fighters.

"And, according to the German fighter development habits, after the F-190 fighter begins to enter service, the next generation of more advanced fighters may have begun to fly test, or are close to test flights." Admiral Arnold continued.

This made a senior military and political official in the United States speechless, in such a situation, how could they catch up with the Luftwaffe! This is undoubtedly news that makes them completely desperate.

"Can you be sure of this?" President Roosevelt asked.

"Yes, Your Excellency. We have obtained some information that the development progress of the Germans' more advanced next-generation fighter is probably already in the test flight stage. In this case, it will not be long before the new model will be in service. When the time comes, the Germans will have an even greater advantage! "George? Admiral Marshall said.

"So how should we counter the Germans? Should the Germans be left to widen the gap? In that case, what will we rely on to defeat the Germans? War Secretary Woodlin said.

"We have further increased the development of aircraft and strengthened our ties with the British. The British had a great advantage in aero engines. If we can get their support, the performance of our fighters should be further improved. Admiral Arnold said.

"Then contact the British and work with them to develop a new fighter!" President Roosevelt said.

"Yes, Your Excellency." Admiral Arnold replied.

"In terms of bombers, the Germans mainly had the H-01 medium bomber, the H-11 heavy bomber and the H-21 heavy bomber. Among them, the H-01 medium bomber is a twin-engine tactical bomber, while the H-11 heavy bomber and H-21 heavy bomber are four-engine long-range strategic bombers.

The Army Air Corps is equipped with bombers mainly B-17 heavy bombers and B-18 medium bombers, which are slightly inferior in performance to the German H-11 heavy bombers and H-01 medium bombers. But the gap is not huge. The B-24 heavy bomber and the B-25 medium bomber that we are developing are fully capable of matching the performance of these two aircraft of the Germans. Of course, the performance of the H-21 heavy bomber of the Germans was a little more advanced. But our B-24 heavy bomber, compared to it, the gap is not very large. Admiral Arnold continued.

In addition, the German Air Force was armed with two bombers, the Stuka dive bomber and the Predator ground attack aircraft. These two bombers are bombers that support firepower for the army. Our Navy is armed with SBD dive bombers, which, although a little worse in performance, can be used. If necessary, the Army Air Corps could also purchase a batch of these dive bombers. Admiral Arnold continued.
