Eagle Sauce: What? Rabbit wants to rebuild Guanghan Palace!

"Dean Liang, Academician Sun. "

"I know that if you look at the advanced level of the fourth-and-a-half-generation fighters, there are indeed not many tens of billions of dragon coins. "

"If it were put in the Free Country, even if it was 50 billion dollars, they would rush to ask for it. "

"But you know that. "

"The economy of our dragon country has just improved, and defense spending has just begun to increase. "

"The military spending of our Air Force is still too small. "

Zhao Jinsong said with a look of embarrassment.

He didn't have any resentment against Sun Zhiyuan and Liang Guodong asking for a sky-high price.

After all, the fourth-and-a-half-generation fighters are placed here.

Judging from its value, 10 billion dragon coins is really not much.

Not long ago, Bangzi spent $5.2 billion on the production patent of 120 F-16s.

If you want a new fighter model abroad, you can't get it without 10 billion, and it's still about dollars.

What's more, it is the most advanced fourth-generation and a half generation fighter of the Blue Star, which cannot be researched even if you have money.

Value is immeasurable.

But alas, their Air Force really doesn't have that much money now.

Looking at Zhao Jinsong's embarrassed appearance, Sun Zhiyuan also felt sad.

As a scientific researcher, how could he not know how scarce the national defense scientific research funds of the Dragon Kingdom have been in recent years?

Since the mid-80s, with the further deepening of the reform of the Dragon Kingdom, the country has been in financial difficulties.

He also put forward the idea that military industrial units should "integrate the military with the people" and "use the people to support the army," which led to a sharp drop in military spending and scientific research spending.

At that time, there were widely circulated in society that "it is better to sell tea and eggs than to engage in atomic bombs" and "it is better to hold a scalpel than to use a razor."

Although in the last two years, defense and military spending have begun to increase gradually.

But it still can't support such high costs.

"General Zhao, I know the difficulties of the Air Force. "

"If it weren't for the fact that this research and development of our pan-space research institute is too important, I wouldn't have thought of asking your air force for money. "

"Even if the technology of this fourth-and-a-half-generation fighter is in vain to the Air Force, I have no complaints. "

Sun Zhiyuan said solemnly.

"Yes, General Zhao, we can't help it. "

The pan-space research institute team led by Academician Sun will next study small-scale controllable nuclear fusion technology and fifth-generation aerospace fighter technology. "

"These two scientific research projects are very expensive. "

Liang Guodong also added.

"What? You just said that you want to study the technical ?!!! of fifth-generation fighters."

Hearing his words, Zhao Jinsong almost choked on his own saliva.

Boy.

He has just watched the first flight of the fourth-and-a-half-generation fighter, and you are ready to develop a fifth-generation fighter?

And it's also an air-space fighter?

"Academician Sun, what Dean Liang just said is true?"

"Do you really want to develop a fifth-generation fighter?"

"And what does this air-space fighter mean? Why haven't I heard of that?"

Zhao Jinsong looked at Sun Zhiyuan and asked urgently.

"Dean Liang is right, our pan-space research institute is preparing to develop the fifth generation of aerospace fighters. "

"The so-called aerospace fighter is a new type of military aircraft capable of both aviation and aerospace. "

"It uses small nuclear fusion as the main power, can take off like an ordinary fighter, fly in the atmosphere at hypersonic speed, fly at an altitude of 30~100 kilometers at a speed of 12~25 times the speed of sound, and directly accelerate into the earth's orbit, become a space vehicle, and after returning to the atmosphere, land at the airport like an airplane ......".

Sun Zhiyuan explained.

A new type of military aircraft capable of both aviation and aerospace

Hearing Sun Zhiyuan's explanation, Zhao Jinsong and the senior generals of the Air Force beside him all had burning eyes.

They never thought that a fighter could be built like this.

Prior to this, aviation and aerospace were two different fields of technology.

Airplanes and space vehicles operate inside and outside the atmosphere, respectively.

Air transport systems are reusable, while space launch systems are generally not reusable.

However, the aerospace aircraft described by Sun Zhiyuan can achieve the goal of complete reuse and greatly reduce the cost of space transportation.

More importantly, the fighter uses a small controllable nuclear fusion device, as well as a variety of advanced futuristic weapons.

Once this research is successful, the entire Blue Star airspace will still be the opponent of their Dragon Country Air Force.

Nope!

If their Air Force really has this air and space fighter, their target will not be on the blue star, but the entire sea of stars!

Thinking of this, Zhao Jinsong and other senior generals of the Air Force were all excited.

This is of great significance for further developing the role of the strategic air force.

If this is the case, then the pattern of the three armed forces may have to change completely.

Their air force will surpass the army and become the strongest branch of the army!

"Academician Sun, if you can really develop such a powerful aerospace fighter, our air force will support you even if you smash the pot and sell iron!"

Zhao Jinsong couldn't help but burst into foul language excitedly.

Although he is only the head of the Air Force of the Mukden theater of operations and does not have so much power.

But he believed that if the chief of the Air Force had known about it, he would have agreed with him.

After all, this fifth-generation air-space fighter has an irresistible allure for their Air Force.

"I'll leave this matter to me, I'll go back to the chief right now and ask him to find a way to solve your R&D funding problem!"

Saying that, Zhao Jinsong, who was anxious, wanted to turn around and leave.

But he was stopped by Sun Zhiyuan.

"General Zhao, don't be in a hurry to leave. "

"Oh, Academician Sun, do you have anything else?".

Zhao Jinsong stopped and asked curiously.

"General Zhao, I thank you for your support to the scientific research work of our research institute. "

"However, I didn't intend to let your Air Force bear such a large cost alone. "

"If your Air Force bears this cost alone, I'm afraid the Air Force will have a very hard time this year. "

Sun Zhiyuan continued with a smile.

"The advanced technology on this fourth-and-a-half-generation fighter I developed is not only applicable to your Air Force. "

"It's just as important for the Army and the Navy. "

Hearing this, Zhao Jinsong was stunned for a moment.

It was quick to react.

Immediately, he slapped his head and said with self-reproach.

"Gee, why do you think I'm so stupid. "

"Why didn't I think of that?".

"Although the fourth-and-a-half-generation fighter belongs to our Air Force, the technology on it can be sold to the army and navy. "

"10 billion yuan of scientific research funds, if the three armed forces are evenly divided, our air force only needs to take more than 3 billion yuan. "

"So what do we have to worry about!".

After understanding the truth, Zhao Jinsong laughed excitedly.

The technologies of the three services are interoperable, whether it is a radar system or an avionics system.

Even missiles, the three armed forces often study and use each other.

Their air force handed over such advanced fourth-and-a-half-generation fighter technology to the army and navy.

It's not too much to ask them for a little technology research and development money.

"General Zhao, I heard that the Mukden Air Force will conduct a real combat confrontation exercise with the Kyoto Air Force next month Xi

?"

Looking at Zhao Jinsong, who was excited, Sun Zhiyuan suddenly asked with a deep expression.
