C2192 Our Relationship Is Very Good
Of course Qin Guan knew. Even though the Y Country was rich and powerful, they knew how difficult it was to develop the fourth generation. Therefore, they urgently wanted to reduce the expenditure. Then... The joint development of the Navy and Air Force was the most reliable plan.1
In fact, they really did.
Just two years ago, Y Country Navy had shyly joined the ATF program. It was also the plan to give birth to the F22. However, the navy had joined. Of course, it was not a simple ATF program, but a branch of it. It was the NATF plan. There was an N at the front that represented the navy.
At this time, the Navy was also developing a stealth ship attack aircraft called A12, which was called the ATA program. The Air Force actually took a liking to it and planned to develop the next generation of attack aircraft on the basis of the Navy model.
When this project started, Congress was still rather pleased. They felt that they no longer needed to listen to the quarrels between the two militants to request funding. The previous Congress hearings were almost always noisy.
But who would have thought that none of these projects would go smoothly? Let's not talk about the A-12 Avenger problem. Let's talk about the Naval Naval Plan. There were many requirements for the Navy, and it was hard for the Air Force to accept them.
If it was simple, they would directly give the F22 some of the necessary equipment to enhance the landing gear. With the ship hook, anti-salt processing, and so on, that would be enough. But, the navy has too many requirements, not to mention all kinds of navy needs. They even requested to change the F22 into a type of post-morphing pterosaur.
When the navy requested to be here, it meant that this plan could not be carried out. A simple F22N was not a complicated plane. The two military requirements were completely different, and the Air Force was very dissatisfied. I hope to kick out the Navy's NATF project, what will your Navy do? That's the Navy's business, don't meddle in the Air Force's business!
These were still the internal secrets of the Y Country's army, but Qin Guan already knew about it. So, when the congress people started to say something about unifying the two armies' weapons, Qin Guan immediately refuted, but he wasn't technically speaking about it. He was talking about the honor of the army.
Qin Guan was a big liar. Initially, he didn't have the chance and wanted to create an opportunity. Now that he had the chance, of course he had to make a big deal out of it.
Now, Qin Guan immediately rejected this plan. He had to get over it first.
"However, we found that the cost of operating the F-14 male fighter jet was too high when we were operating it. It is not worth it. If we continue to develop a new generation of variable wings, the cost of operating it is very high. How can we solve this problem? " At this moment, another congressman asked.
Is it expensive? Actually, this was a complete misunderstanding. The Male Cat Fighter was from the 1970s. The big bug developed it later and used more advanced technology. Therefore, the operation cost seemed to have been reduced by quite a bit. In fact, if the Male Cat Fighter was improved with modern technology, the operating cost would not be much higher than that of the big bug.
As long as one talked about it, it was a complicated technique that could change the speed of the wings. What was so complicated about it? The axle structure was all made of titanium alloy. When the later generations dismantled it, the other parts were damaged. This structure was still in good condition, and Grumman Company's titanium alloy welding technology was very good. It was quite solid. As for its control system, it was electronic. Was there any need for maintenance?
Therefore, the cost of operating it was not high at all. In comparison, this was the difference between the cost of operating a Heavy Aircraft and a medium-sized machine. Even if the cost was high, the efficiency of using it was also very high. In actual combat, the big bug simply could not satisfy the navy's needs.
However, of course, Qin Guan would not explain these things. He said solemnly, "Everyone, we are going to fight against Bear Country, the biggest threat to the people of Bear Country. It is the Su 27 fighter jets. It is said that these fighter jets are also undergoing the training of the Boarding the Ship. In the future, they will become the Shipboard aircraft of the Bear Navy. They want to fight against this kind of Heavy Fighter. So what if it costs some money? Is it possible to use money to protect our national security? "
Qin Guan's words almost confirmed this fact. That's right. So what if we use it? Our weapons and equipment are used for war, not fire sticks. Obtaining victory in war is the most important thing!
In short, what he said made the members of Congress unhappy. To Congress, they had to pay. What they hated the most was money. They wanted money, they wanted money. The navy spent money like water, but they didn't cherish it. They felt that it was reasonable for them to spend money. How could they do that?
The Navy's actions would definitely incur the displeasure of Congress, but now, it was obvious that no one realized this point.
Qin Guan looked at the crowd and continued, "Everyone, even our Han Country is undergoing a second development on the foundation of our J-11. Before long, everyone will be able to see our own Invisible Machine. If you want to save money, you can also order from us. We are quite welcome. "
Qin Guan's words made Pelehak at a loss. Was what he said good or bad?
That kind of new Invisible Machine was absolutely confidential. Up until now, the west still didn't know about its existence. But... A while ago, Elder Lu had said that he would use the current technology. After upgrading the aircraft, its appearance had some characteristics of the Invisible Machine. And this plane, it was estimated that it would soon serve in the army of Han Country. So... It was not a big secret that Qin Guan had to say it out loud first.
The Male Cat Fighter is such a good platform, if you don't use it, we will make good use of it, we won't waste it.
Of course, you can also guess that we can improve it effortlessly. The Grumman Company must have provided a lot of help. The Grumman Company must have provided a lot of technology to the Han Country. Otherwise, although the Han Country could be used for mapping and imitation, it would never be able to improve it by itself.
"I have to thank the Grumman Company for this." Qin Guan said, "If you need it, we can also give the complete modification plan to the Grumman Company. Let the Grumman Company produce this new plane as a witness to our friendship. "
Now it was just polite words. How could it be possible to give them the technology? And now, the status of the Grumman Company had become even more awkward.
Along with the rise of the strength of the Han Country, a portion of the people in the Y Country had become wary of the Han Country. So, how could the Grumman Company, which had a very close relationship with the Han Country, not make them dislike it? If they disliked the Grumman, they would also dislike the Male Cat Fighter.
"Thank you for President Qin's support, but we also have confidence in ourselves." Pelehak opened his mouth and said, "We believe that it is the best choice for the navy to improve the invisibility of our Male Cat Fighter."
