(Written on the front: Recently, many readers have said that this book is slow-paced, you can see how many chapters I have been blocked today, 140,000 words for me to 120,000 words.)

If you really pull up the rhythm, like a novel like a certain Lu, a hundred chapters will step on the cherry blossoms, can I still write this book?

I know what you want to see, but there's always a process.

I have carefully arranged the cool points of this book, including the rhythm, and I want to take into account two points: everyone can watch it well, and everyone can read it for a long time, understand?

In addition, let's talk about the problem of updating, the new book period can only be two chapters a day, not something I can change, otherwise I won't be able to eat it if I recommend it.

After I put it on the shelves, it was more than 10,000 per day, which can be assured.

Finally, it's so important to catch up, if there are new chapters, you'd better read them quickly, on the one hand, you can contribute some data to me, and on the other hand, ...... You get the idea)

...

...

...

Soon after, Kadena Air Base.

Leon sat behind his desk, and the man across from him was still Conant from Washington.

He put down the half-smoked cigar in his hand and said with a serious expression:

"The conflict was sudden---- or rather, not just sudden, but out of control."

"According to our previous predictions, after the arrival of RC-135, the Chinese people should fully recognize the reality, adopt a conservative, status quo strategy, and de facto recognize our right to freedom of navigation in the South China Sea."

"But now you can see the results, they have taken the most extreme way, which can even be said to be suicidal...... Clearly, they don't intend to back down on this bottom line. ”

"I doubt that if we put further pressure on them, it will be us or them who will suffer in the end."

"You know, their lives aren't worth much, but my children can't be left on that damn sea......"

Hearing his words, Conant nodded lightly and replied:

"That's what I'm worried about---- but if you think about it another way, isn't that also what we were aiming for in the first place?"

"We were originally trying to test their bottom line, and now it seems that their bottom line is not just territorial waters and airspace, but some kind of 'aggressive threshold'."

"Aggressiveness threshold? How to explain it? ”

Leon asked, confused.

"It's simple, you can think of it as a grading system."

"For every radical action we take, we add one point to their scoring scale, and for every initiative that retreats, we subtract one point."

"Once the score crosses a certain threshold, they will launch a corresponding counterattack."

"The 2001 crash was due to this reason, and this year's crash is the same---- the scores we got have broken through their assessment standards."

"The last time it was because of frequent provocations by our own pilots, and this time because of the replacement of more powerful reconnaissance aircraft...... You can get the idea, right? ”

"Understood."

Leon nodded slightly, then frowned again and asked:

"But if that's the case, the collision would mean that our scores have met or even exceeded their threshold."

"Whatever we do next, they're going to get their revenge."

"And such retaliation is something we do not want---- after all, we are not ready for a full-scale conflict."

"That's right, that's right. The situation is no different now than it was two years ago, when we had been doing a low-key strategy for a long time. ”

Conant tapped lightly on the table and continued:

"Therefore, Washington's current requirement is that the Kadena base move to the stage of normal operation, no longer carry out aggressive reconnaissance of the Chinese coastline, and only need to maintain normal cruises......

"It can't be!"

Before Conant could finish speaking, Leon shouted.

"This is inconsistent with the instructions I received, our goal is to attract the attention of Huaxia through sea pressure, consume their resources and strategic weight, and suppress their self-developed fighter program......

"The directive hasn't changed."

Conant said calmly.

"There is no change in the directive, but we now need to think more about non-military means."

"Non-military means? For example? Are you confident that you can hold their progress at bay? ”

Leon looked at Conette suspiciously, who smiled slightly, and replied:

"We are certainly confident that, in fact, we have obtained some confidential information about this project."

"According to this information, their project has just reached the scheme design stage, and if we can break several key nodes in the R&D chain, I think it should not be difficult to achieve the original goal......

......

On the other hand, while Washington and Kadena were planning the next step in their suppression strategy, the 601 Institute was a busy but exciting scene.

Lin Yongming stood on the side of the busy workshop, while Lei Gang accompanied him.

Looking at the fighter plane that was about to take shape in front of him, Lin Yongming opened his mouth and asked:

"What about hydraulics? It's okay to adapt, right? ”

"No problem, we are now using the original hydraulic system of the J-10, and some improvements have been made on the basis of the new body, the electronic simulation has been passed, and all transmissions can operate correctly."

Lei Gang replied confidently.

In fact, as he said, as a relatively mature third-generation aircraft, J-10 actually has many technologies available, and even if these technologies are placed on the fourth-generation aircraft, they will not affect the overall performance.

"What about fuel? Does the fuel system work? ”

"This is no problem, our own technology is available, and now we have used the above technology to optimize and improve, and the high-altitude performance of the oil pump has been greatly improved."

"The only thing that is a little more difficult now is the ventilation and pressurization system, and we need a little time to test it to ensure that the dynamic pressure balance data is accurate."

Hearing Lei Gang's words, Lin Yongming nodded slightly and continued to ask:

"How long does it take?"

"A week, if it goes well, a few days, if the test is fine, we are ready to go straight to the plane."

"The flight controller uses our original set? What about radar? ”

"The flight controller must be overhauled...... The technical team is already on the way over, and this part needs to rely on a large amount of wind tunnel data, and the No. 3 hole has been blowing day and night, and it is estimated that it can be completed before the assembly is completed. ”

"But the problem with the radar system is still relatively big, and such a fifth-generation aircraft can't always use our old system."

"Our consideration is to use the PD radar first, and then replace it when the AESA technology is mature."

Lin Yongming's brows furrowed slightly, he sighed, and sighed:

"Damn, the design of the fourth-generation aircraft, with Doppler radar, it's a shame to say it...... Forget it, it's a test machine anyway, fly first and then talk about it. There's no problem with the stealth coating, right? ”

"That's fine...... Mass production is currently not possible, but laboratory production is still possible to ensure the use of verification machines and prototypes. ”

"Mass production as soon as possible, we are now developing by leaps and bounds, and various technologies and industries have to keep up!"

Lei Gang showed a wry smile on his face, he shook his head slightly and said:

"Leader, what you said is simple, industry and technology support is not an overnight thing, let alone now, give us another three years, we may not be able to develop completely."

"And to be honest, the economic benefits brought by this fighter are almost zero, and the only way to develop it quickly is to rely on central blood transfusion."

"There's not enough money...... If you have enough money, I'll give you whatever you want! ”

Lin Yongming glared at Lei Gang, but quickly withdrew his gaze.

Although the other party said this a little frustrating, it is indeed true......

The matter of building an airplane is a huge consumption, and there is no way to obtain benefits in the short term.

However, if we don't build it, we can't even guarantee national security, and the losses will be even greater in the long run.

Is there any way to make some money?

The most profitable business in the world is nothing more than the resale of arms.

The problem, however, is that as early as the Gulf War, the nearly 3,000 Type 69 tanks purchased by Iraq were destroyed in one fell swoop, and the Jian-7 fighters did not dare to take to the air to meet the battle, which had almost shattered the prestige of China's weapons in the international market.

----Wait a minute.

It can't be sold because the product doesn't meet the customer's requirements, and there is nothing to sell.

But if ...... What about our "best" stuff to sell?

Of course, at this stage, the J-10 will definitely not be sold.

Can ...... now Under the premise that the technology has begun to develop by leaps and bounds, it seems that it is not impossible to upgrade the J-82 and J-8 for export?
