The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

Guizhou, test flight airport.

Liu Tao opened the hangar, walked into the hangar, put his hand on the J-7 in front of him, and looked at the virtual panel at the corner of his eye.

His mouth curled up slightly. Now this J-7 is already a good advanced training aircraft!

Of course, it is still a long way from the advanced training aircraft in his mind.

But for now, this is a good advanced training aircraft for China, which can train J-7 and J-8 pilots very well.

And there are many technologies in it, which can in turn help the improvement of J-7 and J-8, so that J-7 and J-8 can reach the level of second-generation and half or even close to the level of third-generation aircraft.

But to reach this point, the original one must be greatly modified.

The aircraft engine, avionics system, etc. must be greatly modified.

"System, analysis!" Liu Tao muttered in his heart.

Suddenly, a picture of electronic design appeared on the virtual panel.

An aircraft involves many parts and many professions.

Even if this is a trainer aircraft, the technology contained is not low.

As the analysis proceeded, Liu Tao had a deeper understanding of the J-7.

It can even be said that he knew it like the back of his hand.

It is estimated that no one knows this J-7 better than him.

As for the J-7, he also knows it very well, of course he dare not say that he knows it all.

Because the J-7, the first supersonic jet fighter developed by China, has never given up on improvement since its successful development to tap the potential of this fighter.

The J-7I model successfully completed its test flight in 1973, and a total of 188 aircraft were produced until it was discontinued in 1981.

The J-7II is an improvement made by Chengfei on the basis of the J-7I model. The main improvements are the change from take-off ejection to canopy ejection, the use of a II rocket ejection seat that can be safely ejected at zero altitude and a speed of 250~890 kilometers per hour, and other improvements. It even uses a new turbojet engine of the WP-7B with a static thrust of 6,100 kilograms.

Not long ago, the J-7IIH model was formed after the suspension of the 'Pili' air-to-air missile and electronic fire control equipment.

In addition, there are J-7B/M, J-7ⅡM, J-7Ⅲ/ⅢA, and J-7E, which is currently being improved.

Liu Tao suspected that if the changes continued, the English letters would not be enough.

Liu Tao had not come into contact with all the improved models, so he naturally could not understand them all.

But Liu Tao was sure that the performance of this J-7 fighter was better than the most advanced J-7 fighter.

After the analysis, Liu Tao began to arrange the production of this new J-7 fighter, and according to the naming rules, Liu Tao named this new J-7 fighter J-7A.

When Liu Tao left Guifei and returned to Panshan Group again.

In the office, there were already a lot more about the situation on the front battlefield.

Liu Tao browsed the battle report on the front line with a smile on his face.

As the news of the naval battle was reported, the news quickly spread throughout China, causing a great shock throughout China, and even when it was spread overseas, it also caused a lot of shock.

During this period, Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping commanded the troops to fight. It was not just the combined brigade, but also the air force, navy, army, sea and air forces to fight in a three-dimensional manner.

There was even an informationized force of their own, but the outside world had no way of knowing about the informationized force.

Relying on the great advantages of weapons and equipment, as well as the control of sea and air power, the frontline troops fought very smoothly during the war, fought two annihilation battles, and achieved great and brilliant results.

According to the current progress on the battlefield, it may not take long before the line drawn by Liu Tao at the beginning, 100,000 square kilometers, will be under control.

"Move the capital?" Liu Tao sneered.

He didn't believe how long the other side could hold on.

How arrogant and arrogant he was at the beginning, how much he had to pay now.

Liu Tao contacted and asked whether there was enough ammunition and supplies in the front.

What surprised Liu Tao was that there were still a lot of supplies and ammunition prepared in the early stage. According to the current situation, I am afraid that there would be some left when the troops withdrew.

Afterwards, Liu Tao learned about what happened at home and abroad during this period. A lot of things happened at home and abroad during this period.

Domestically, the National Housing System Reform Conference was held in Beijing. Since 1988, the housing system reform has been officially implemented in various places. Commercial housing will appear more and more, and will become the mainstream of housing in the future.

Abroad, there are mainly three major events. The first major event is undoubtedly the Soviet Union's intention to withdraw its troops from Afghanistan. This is no longer a secret. The Soviet Union has been releasing goodwill and intends to end the Afghan war decently.

The second major event is that Saddam has taken action on the Kurds. After the news came out, it caused a great impact.

The third major event is that the South African government has launched a series of internal political reform measures to try to ease domestic racial tensions, which has attracted the world's attention. After all, South Africa is located at the southernmost tip of the African continent and controls the Cape of Good Hope, a key point connecting the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. Its strategic position is very important. In addition, South Africa is rich in gold and diamonds. Originally, South Africa should have developed well and its citizens lived a rich life, but the facts are just the opposite.

"Is Saddam crazy? The Iran-Iraq War is still going on, and he actually did this. Isn't this a disgrace to his character?" Liu Tao frowned slightly, not understanding why Saddam did such a big thing at this time. Isn't this handing the handle to Europe and the United States, letting Europe and the United States criticize him.

If it is said that before the Iran-Iraq War, Iraq was favored by Europe, the United States, and the Soviet Union, and had a very good international environment. Then in recent years, as the Iran-Iraq War eroded, oil prices rose, and international oil prices remained high, causing high inflation rates in European and American countries, which made Europe and the United States miserable. Europe and the United States began to be dissatisfied with Iraq.

Especially the United States, it was simply gritting its teeth.

In recent years, the United States has not wanted to suppress oil prices in a year, so that the Soviet Union will lose its foreign exchange channels. It is best to produce a barrel of oil at a loss, so that the Soviet Union can be strangled economically. But because the Iran-Iraq War has never stopped, oil prices cannot be suppressed.

If Saddam does this now, the United States will criticize him verbally and even blatantly favor Persia, thus forcing Iraq to withdraw from Persia and restore the border before the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq War.

Of course, Liu Tao also knows that the Kurds are a relatively big problem in the Middle East.

Liu Tao showed a thoughtful look.

This year, starting from January, China began to import oil. As a real pure oil importing country, China's own oil production is not enough.

China has also begun to suffer from high oil prices, but the current oil import volume is not too much, and it is not so obvious.

The oil imported by China now is shipped back from Africa, South America, and the Middle East by Panshan Group. In a sense, it is a transfer from left hand to right hand, and the loss in this regard is not large.
