549, unexpected

Shangri-La went on to explain:

"I have just received accurate information that our company has begun to plan, the Twin-engine large version of the F3H fighter jet, the maximum speed will reach at least Mach 2, and the limit can even reach Mach 2.2."

Hearing this, there was a sudden silence in the conference room, and this speed was really a bit exaggerated.

Essex couldn't help but glance at Shangri-La:

"Are you serious?"

Shangri-La nodded seriously:

"The plane may be heavier and bigger, but it can be faster, at least Mach 2.

"Moreover, when the body is larger, the load capacity is larger, the fuel is more, the range is larger, and the attributes that are ultimately ahead of the Sable will not only be speed."

The bumblebee here couldn't help but mutter:

"If the speed can really be led by a large margin, then there is nothing to be afraid of, the opponent has a strong dog fighting ability, so we will not fight with it.

"We were fast enough, we pulled up, we dived, we left, we looked for opportunities to dive down again to attack, so we could do the loop."

Bumblebee's simple and straightforward words sparked more approval:

"Yes, yes, that's our original battle mode......"

The company here also nodded slightly, and slowly eased up:

"That's right, there is no strongest, only the most suitable, maybe they have special experience and skills in air combat, so they will concentrate on developing fighters suitable for grappling.

"But according to our own experience, grappling is just a last resort, and what we are looking for is speed, and high-altitude and high-speed fighters are suitable for us."

Shangri-La breathed a sigh of relief and spread her hands:

"Actually, it's just that because we came from different commands, before today, they all developed independently, so we went in completely different directions.

"Now it seems that the other party is not absolutely ahead of us, the other party's direction may not be the right one, and there is no need for us to forcibly change our own path to imitate them.

"Don't be intimidated by the seemingly leading level of technology they show.

"So far, the weapons used by the other side, in addition to early warning aircraft and radar, do not have absolutely leading products, and what we really want to increase our efforts is the research and development of early warning aircraft."

Most of the members at the scene basically agreed with Shangri-La's statement.

Shangri-La is a local airline, which is a normal internal competition, and there is no reason for representatives of other airlines to object.

If Shangri-La can do it, he will try to do it, and then we will compete together.

Historically, the third-generation aircraft did not completely lead the second-generation aircraft in terms of basic airframe parameters.

Especially because the third-generation aircraft uses turbofan engines, and in terms of high-altitude and high-speed performance, they are even lagging behind the second-generation aircraft using turbojet engines.

The seemingly mutually beneficial contrast eventually led to the acceptance of the judgment that speed and combat were just two different directions.

Essex, who had never spoken, also said expressionlessly again:

"Shall we buy sables?"

For this problem, of course, the representatives of the airlines do not want to buy, just use all their own.

But the top brass who had nothing to do with the airline had their own ideas, and the conference room was again arguing.

In the end, it was the fleet commander who knocked on the table and concluded:

"It will take a long time to develop a new aircraft, and the Sable is the most powerful fighter we can get in the short term.

"We can buy a portion of the Sable to fill the command's demand for high-performance fighters.

"At the same time, it will be able to provide a design reference for individual airlines, as well as to understand the performance of our main competitors in the future.

"Therefore, we still have to buy a part of it, we don't need too much, at most 100 aircraft, for understanding and reference, not for popularization in the command."

The company's compromise approach has been recognized by both sides.

Next, after several rounds of discussions, it was finally decided to let York City as a representative go to Liaoning to negotiate a formal contract for the purchase of sables, and correctly further reduce the quantity and price.

Airlines are concentrating on developing higher-speed fighter jets that can reach speeds of at least Mach 2.

If you think you can't do it, you can shift your energy to AWACS.

The other side.

In the internal display area of the venue of the air show, something unexpected happened to both parties.

As a foreign "enterprise" participating for the first time, the booth of Mufeng Command has received considerable attention from the very beginning.

After the two aircraft performances, the Silver Fox and the Sable, the focus quickly rose to the top.

A large number of people gathered around the booth, heads of relevant departments, high-level ship girls, commanders, ordinary ship girls, human beings, aviation scientific researchers, and media reporters.

Ask for various information such as the detailed parameters of the armament, the price and method of export, the scope of use, etc.

Hulun, Ningshuang, Taiyuan, Lanzhou and others, with a group of renovated ship girls, couldn't cope with it, and they were about to pout when they spoke.

Later, they simply printed the instructions and pasted them in front of the weapons and equipment on display, so that these people could see for themselves.

After learning about the various parameters and prices, many ship wives and commanders decided to buy them on the spot.

A lot of transactions were reached on the spot, which made Hulun, Ningshuang and others unexpected.

The main reason is that the management model of the USN Command is completely different from that of Mufeng.

The materials and resources required for the transformation of the ship of the Mufeng Command are mainly distributed directly to individuals by the headquarters according to the degree of contribution or as a reward for merit.

And the management model of the USN Command is completely different, except for a few professional fleets officially controlled by the command, the group of ordinary ship girls and commanders is completely commercialized.

They are not directly managed by any official organization, and are equivalent to ordinary members in various guilds, and they usually live their own lives.

When the headquarters or local commercial organizations, institutions, and companies have operational needs, they will temporarily call up the fleet in the form of missions.

The two parties sign a contract, the ordinary commander and the ship's mother participate in the mission, and after the task is completed, remuneration and rewards will be paid according to the contract.

Ordinary commanders and ship girls, whether it is daily consumption or upgrading, all earn resources by themselves, buy materials by themselves, and complete them by themselves.

There are a large number of enterprises in the private sector that specialize in the research and development and production of weapons and equipment.

Although these enterprises want to obtain large orders from the headquarters, most of the time, they still have to operate scattered orders from the private sector to maintain the operation of the enterprises.

Of course, enterprises have to make money, and the price of weapons and equipment is directly related not only to performance and popularity, but also to the business strategy of enterprises and the degree of monopoly.

The products brought by Mu Feng have broken the local market pattern and brought many products that are very cost-effective in the eyes of local ordinary commanders and ship mothers.
