Chapter 569: Attack Pratt & Whitney

In the corner of the Boeing company's exhibition area, there was a propaganda poster that read: "The most powerful weapon of the 21st century." "And then below is a photo of a missile.

The tone is really big, do these arms dealers like to do this, they always like to say that they are the most powerful, the most sophisticated, the most technological, the most advanced in the world, no wonder these rich Arab elders, they are fooled into paying for it.

I saw a slightly smaller line in the next line that read, "Electromagnetic pulse weapons, Boeing's dominance of electronic strike technology, will become a nightmare for the city." ”

Mu Yang walked over and picked up a brochure with color pages in the exhibition area, only to see that it read: "Electromagnetic Pulse Weapon (EMP) is known as the "Second Original. "Bullets" are electromagnetic pulse weapons, which are divided into nuclear electromagnetic pulse bombs and non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse bombs, which are powerful weapons that suppress and destroy the opponent's electronic information system, command and control system, and military network system through electromagnetic radiation. Its biggest feature is that its attack speed is as fast as the speed of light, the hit rate is almost 100%, there is no quality failure problem that conventional weapons are worried about, and there are no ballistic problems. ”

The "high-energy microwave missile (HPM)" developed by Boeing also uses electromagnetic radiation to suppress or paralyze the enemy's electronic information system, command and control system, and network system. Compared with EMP weapons, HPM missiles also have two major advantages: first, they do not have high requirements for aiming and tracking accuracy; Second, the collateral damage is small, that is, it will not cause a large number of casualties. Third, the probability of the enemy's missile interception is very low. ”

It looks amazing, but there's only one brochure here. There are no physical objects, but there are a large number of other products of Boeing, one of which is a laser weapon produced by Boeing Weapons. It is said that there have been real combat gains, a drone has been shot down, and this laser weapon is still portable.

It was already noon, Muyang came to the rest area, found a place to ask for lunch, and then took out the computer to inquire, the focus was to inquire about the Boeing Arms Company.

Boeing has more than just 747 airliners. He is a leader in the global aerospace industry and one of the world's largest manufacturers of civil and military aircraft. In addition, Boeing designs and manufactures rotorcraft, electronic and defense systems, missiles, satellites, launchers, and advanced information and communications systems. It is the second largest arms supplier to the United States.

The U.S. military uses F-4 Phantoms, F-15 Hawks, C-17 Globemaster military transport aircraft, AH-64 Apache gunships, CH-47 Chinook helicopters, and V-22 Osprey tiltrotors. B-1B supersonic strategic bomber. The B-52 subsonic long-range strategic bomber, the EA-18G Growler electronic attack aircraft, the F-18 Hornet fighter, the KC-46A air tanker, the KC-135 air tanker, the Harpoon tactical missile, the Arrow missile and much more are all products of Boeing.

Actually, there are many more. I won't list them all.

In 2015, Boeing experimented with that high-energy microwave missile (HPM). And it was a success, and the U.S. military invested about $14.7 billion in this project.

The power grid is interrupted, the financial system collapses, the car loses control, the computer burns out, the radar fails, and the signal disappears, this is the terrible scene after being attacked by a large-scale electromagnetic pulse bomb, which has been listed as a weapon of mass destruction in the 21st century, and some experts call it "the original of the 21st century." bullets", and even more alarmists say that if there is a war with electromagnetic missiles, both sides will suffer heavy losses, and the whole world will go back 200 years.

However, Muyang also found that China is not so backward compared to the United States in electromagnetic wave weapons, and the main reason is that the five major ones often have nuclear weapons.

The high-energy microwave missile (HPM) used by Boeing is different from the traditional electromagnetic wave weapon, in short, it is more like a large microwave oven, detonated with explosives, and then instantly emits a strong microwave pulse to destroy all power facilities and electronic components, the explosion power is not large, but the destructive power of modern facilities is amazing.

When a missile is dropped, the whole city will fall into darkness and dead silence, even the electronic components of the car will be destroyed, and people can only rely on the most primitive means of transportation if they want to escape, and bicycles may be a good choice.

And this technology is still in the hands of Boeing, and most of the electromagnetic technology of other countries is still in the traditional EMP mode, Muyang estimates that if he gets this missile, it is estimated that China will be willing to buy it, and countries hostile to the United States will definitely pay a high price.

In fact, the original poster posted by Boeing was just to show the strength of its own company, and they will never sell this kind of weapon to the outside world, and the US government will not agree to it, because once it is in the hands of the enemy, the consequences will be catastrophic.

But they didn't know that Muyang, a person with a heart, had booked them.

Now Muyang has another goal, but whether to go to Pratt & Whitney first, or to Boeing first, sometimes there are too many choices, and it is also a happy trouble.

Forget it, in the end, Muyang still chose to go to Pratt & Whitney first, because he felt that if he got the aircraft engines they produced, whether it was China or other countries, they were willing to buy them, and as for electromagnetic missiles, it was still unknown.

In the afternoon, Muyang went to Pratt & Whitney again, and looked at several engines produced by Pratt & Whitney, F-22 F119-PW-100 engine, F-35 F135-PW-100 engine, F-15, F100 series for F16, F117-PW-100 engine for C-17 transport aircraft, Boeing 787 and Airbus A350/380 GTX engine.

Good guys, it is worthy of being the same as General Electric of the United States and Rolls-Royce of the United Kingdom, and is known as the world's three major aero-engine companies.

Muyang decided to start with Pratt & Whitney first.

It seems that he is going to Canada, because Pratt Whitney's main production plant is located in Longkill, Quebec, Canada.

Pratt & Whitney Canada, referred to as PWC, is Pratt & Whitney's main aircraft engine production site, and at this moment, Muyang is standing in front of the company's building.

Muyang doesn't know much about this company now, so he didn't rush into the production workshop factory, but the building of Pratt & Whitney Company has an external exhibition hall, where there are many engine sample models produced by their company for customers to visit, Muyang is incarnated as a business manager of a Spanish aircraft factory, to visit here.

The hall is very tall and spacious, where the engines are placed, spotlessly polished and shining with a metallic sheen, and there is a small booth below with the technical specifications of the engine's performance and which aircraft it was used in.

Muyang has been browsing, I have to say, Pratt & Whitney's R&D and production capacity is really strong, and a well-known engine is made from here. (To be continued.) )
