Warship of Great Power

There was a wry smile on Xing Wenge's face: "Leader, you have to eat every bite, and you have to do a little bit of work. It is a big project to integrate the radars of the four bands. Where do we have that kind of strength now? What we need to overcome now is the difficulty of combining the two radars. This is not a simple superposition, but a synthesis. We want to achieve the effect that one plus one is greater than two. For us, this is not easy. We have just completed the program development, and then we need to build related equipment, constantly run-in and improve in the experiment, do this kind of work first, and then continue to add the third and fourth radars, but the follow-up work should be It’s easier, it’s a zero breakthrough at the moment.”

Although the leaders in front of us are all naval leaders, they don't necessarily understand electronic technology. This kind of integrated radio frequency technology is quite difficult. First, combine two radars with different bands to make a dual-band phased array radar. It is already a kind of breakthrough, and now I still want to eat a fat man in one bite, and want to add everything, not to mention our own side, even the United States can't do it.

"Then let's start with this dual-band radar. What do you need?"

"We need to build a test platform and a professional test environment, which requires a lot of money." Xing Wenge said: "So, the Navy needs to allocate funds to us as soon as possible, without further delay."

Wu Shengli smiled wryly, knowing that Xing Wenge's coming here to report work was only a trivial matter, and asking for money was a major matter.

"Okay, our navy will raise funds as soon as possible. As for the installation location, Mingzhou Group has promised to build a 055 bridge model with them, just to install these antennas." Wu Shengli looked at Qin Tao.

Qin Tao's eyelids twitched, and then he shook his head: "No, of course it won't work. We don't have a test environment there, so let's stay at the original place. If you need a bridge model, we'll build it and send it there. By the way, Qingdao There seems to be a professional testing site over there, right? Just put it there, it doesn’t need to be here.”

Qin Tao's answer was so straightforward that everyone present smiled.

Needless to say, it must be because you are afraid of spending money. What if Wu Shengli said that your Mingzhou Group will pay in advance, and it is produced in your factory anyway, so what should we do?

The Mingzhou Group cannot always pay in advance, and the Navy also has to pay for research and development.

"Look, I'm making you anxious." Wu Shengli gave him a blank look.

Xing Wenge nodded: "Yes, the test site in Qingdao is fine, and the equipment is very professional, which is conducive to our research and development. As for the ship test, it is not necessary. After all, we already have previous experience."

"Okay, then the navy's appropriation will be in place as soon as possible, and you should hurry up and test it." After Wu Shengli finished speaking, he thought of something: "But, you have to tell me the truth, how long will your research and development take?"

"Ideally, all the tests of the dual-band radar can be completed within one year, and the other radars can be integrated in another year. We know that the Navy wants to build a brand new destroyer, so let's wait a little longer. Or build the hull first, reserve these radar equipment, and wait until the hull is built and our radars are integrated."

Two more years?

Wu Shengli frowned.

"Dad, our navy can adopt a reward system with a period of two years. If the fine is exceeded, if it is less, it will be rewarded according to the less time. If this is the case, they will conquer this technology within a year. gone."

Hearing Qin Tao's suggestion, Wu Shengli thought about it again, then nodded: "That's right, every month we lose, our navy rewards you with one million cash!"

Xing Wenge's eyes brightened: "Okay, then if we finish it within a year, we can get more than 10 million in cash?"

"Within one year?" Wu Shengli was a little bit pained, but still nodded: "That's right! This technology is missing now, when will you make a breakthrough, and when will we start working on 055!"

For 055, Wu Shengli also went all out.

The East is busy with the brand-new 10,000-ton large-scale drive. At the Goa Hansa Naval Air Force Base in Asan, two brand-new fighters have begun testing.

I saw a canard fighter plane with all kinds of weapons and equipment hanging under its wings. It looked majestic. It opened the afterburner to the maximum, roared and rushed to the ski jump deck, and flew away from the front. At the time, the fuselage sank slightly, but it still flew up.

"Did you see it?" Bullock said to everyone very proudly: "Our Rafale fighter jet has a strong take-off performance. With a maximum take-off weight of 24 tons, it can also take off from a 145-meter-long runway! It happens to be the short take-off runway length of your Blue Sky Guardian! The two take-off points of your aircraft carrier can allow our Rafale fighters to take off! This is something that the Super Hornet will never be able to do!"

Hearing his proud words, Rodman, the new representative of Boeing, shook his head: "Your maximum take-off weight is 24 tons, and our maximum take-off weight is 29 tons. This is not an order of magnitude contest at all. Although we cannot Take off from a 145-meter runway, but you can take off from a 203-meter runway, and if the carrier can provide a deck wind of 30 knots, the 145-meter runway can also be tried, it’s no big deal.”

"That's right, your maximum take-off weight is 29 tons, which is five tons more than ours, but do you have more ammunition than us? We loaded 9 tons of ammunition this time, how much did you carry? "

The Rafale fighter jet also has a lot of remarkable features. Although its empty weight is only ten tons, it has a very powerful plug-in capability. It is far behind the F-16, which is similar to it. Powerful engine.

Rodman blushed.

Although their maximum take-off weight is 29 tons, their maximum external storage capacity is only eight tons, which is really embarrassing to say.

However, the French are also deliberately confusing. Their external ability is strong, but there is actually a reason for the small internal fuel capacity. For a fighter that can achieve a long range with internal fuel, the Rafale fighter mainly relies on external auxiliary fuel tanks. Although it has a nine-ton external storage capacity, if it wants to achieve a long range, it must mount more auxiliary fuel tanks. Under its wings, There are five pylons that can hang auxiliary fuel tanks. Under normal circumstances, three one-ton auxiliary fuel tanks are attached to the outside, and the internal fuel is 4.5 tons, which can achieve a combat range of 1,000 kilometers.

Look at the Super Hornet again, with 6.5 tons of internal oil, which is the same as the Rafale with two auxiliary fuel tanks. Of course, the gap comes out.

Sunil looked at the debate between the two, and it was obvious that the French had the upper hand. It was better not to know. In this comparison, Dassault’s Rafale fighter jet seems to be better, especially when it saves the arresting wire when it lands. Constant overhead.

"Our plane can be invisible!" Rodman said.

"Ours can, too. In terms of stealth ability, we are on the same level." Bullock answered very simply.

The Super Hornet claims that it has stealth capabilities, but it is only partial stealth. In this respect, the Rafale fighter is naturally not bad. This fighter also claimed to consider partial stealth when designing it. In comparison, the others are called the third-generation phones, so their model is the 3.5th generation. Although it is not yet up to the full level of the fourth-generation phones, it is already very close.

than what?

Than avionics capabilities?

We also use flat-panel slot radar, and the avionics capabilities are on the same order of magnitude. Moreover, we also have more advanced missiles. Your American missiles are advanced, but you refuse to export them. You can only export the backward ones. So, no matter what In any comparison, our Rafale fighters are not bad!

Bullock is full of confidence.

The day's test is over, and this evening, at the banquet, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves.

Who is the master? It's hard to say, after all, although this is on Ah San's one-acre three-point land, the guests are French. Brock frequently raises his glass to talk about the friendship between the two sides over the years. Sunil is also very happy and drank more a few cups.

When the banquet was about to end, Brock leaned close to Sunil's ear and whispered, "Your Excellency Sunil, as long as you purchase our Rafale fighter jets, we will give you a 10% rebate. If you buy 80 million US dollars, we can give you 8 million US dollars in rebates, even if you only purchase 40, it will be 320 million US dollars in rebates."

Hundreds of millions of dollars in rebates!

Sunil was stunned. Although he had many projects under him, although these projects also had a lot of money, such kickbacks of hundreds of millions were rare.

He swallowed a mouthful of spit: "But, your price is too high, 80 million US dollars, this price can buy Dongfang's stealth machine."

No matter how good the gust blows, it is only a third-generation aircraft without comprehensive stealth capabilities. It will suffer in the future battlefield. The price of this kind of aircraft has actually caught up with the price of stealth aircraft. If it is purchased, how can I explain it to others?

"Our quotation is not just the purchase price, but also includes spare parts and training. You should also know that after the fighter plane is purchased, the spare parts will cost a lot, even more than the aircraft itself, and the training will also cost a lot of money. The 80 million If it is converted to a single machine, it will not exceed 40 million, which is very cost-effective for you."

"Then can we directly purchase bare metal?"

"This will be very uneconomical. The cost of the whole life will be far more than 80 million. You'd better think about it carefully." Bullock said: "We have a detailed comparison of the two plans here."

Sunil nodded: "Okay, take out these two comparison plans, and I will report to the superior!"

"In addition to these, you also have to consider political factors, so as to avoid the situation in Parthia back then. There are planes, but no spare parts. The United States has a good relationship with you now, and can give you everything. In the future, it will not For sure, we in France are different, we are neutral, we can sell anything, as long as it doesn't antagonize us in the West."

Sunil nodded: "Okay."

He is already tempted, the purchase contract of the Rafale fighter jet will completely bulge his pockets, even if he leaves Ah San in the future, it is enough to go to the western world to enjoy it, so, why is there any hesitation?

Those Americans are so clueless that they don't even know how to give kickbacks.

Facing the new situation, Ah San was actively working hard and started to work hard in a new direction, while the other party had no other choice but to frown.

Singapore Port Group.

"The number of ships passing through the Strait of Malacca has dropped to one-third of the level of the same period last year, and our port transshipment work has also dropped to one-half. If this continues, our decline is inevitable." Gao Bowen's face was serious, Looking at the people below: "Now, do you have any countermeasures?"

No one spoke, and the big guys all had the same mournful face and said nothing.

"It seems that we should implement the previous plan. Didn't we say that we would block the damned Kra Canal? If we don't do it now, when will we wait?" Gao Bowen continued to look at the people below: "Which one of you would like to come?" In charge of this plan?"

The big guys lowered their heads, what are you kidding, Wang Yong who proposed this plan last time has already been killed, and this time he will continue to do it? What should I do if I get hit and killed again?

"Li Qingzhi!" Gao Bowen was a little annoyed, and directly called out the person's name: "You do this!"

This is the tone of command.

"This, this won't work." Li Qingzhi's forehead was sweating, his eyes rolled, and he said, "Siam has sent a message, claiming that our Malacca Strait is also prone to congestion, and it is even easy to The emergence of pirates is clearly a warning to us that if we do this, they will definitely retaliate."

Li Qingzhi didn't want to die, and he also had a reason. Everyone knew that Siam already knew about his plan and made such a statement.

"If the Kra Canal is blocked and the Strait of Malacca is also blocked, it will only create opportunities for Da Mao. More ships will take the Arctic route, and it will also create opportunities for the Easterners. It is said that their land oil pipelines have already been connected. Crude oil imported from the Middle East can go directly through oil pipelines on land, and in this way, we have no hope for development.”

Gao Bowen's eyes were gloomy: "Do we still have hope for development? Every time the Kra Canal is opened, we will lose one more day. We will be dragged down sooner or later. Now, we must do it! They say the Strait of Malacca will be blocked? Then Let the whole world see if there is any problem in this strait, they say there will be pirates here, then we will ask the US Navy to take action to completely wipe out the pirates, this is not Somalia!"

Gao Bowen said loudly: "If we don't do anything now, I'm afraid we won't be able to do anything in the future. Li Qingzhi, you do it. If you do it well, I will give you this position."

Li Qingzhi's eyes lit up.

This is a good opportunity!

However, at this moment, suddenly, there was a soft bang, which interrupted the progress of the meeting. Everyone turned their heads to look at the glass in surprise, and they could see that there were cracks in the glass. These cracks centered on a certain point. yes…

Boom!

There was another sound, and then Li Qingzhi felt something hot splashed on his head, his eyes were blood red, and he smelled blood in his nose, he quickly wiped his eyes with his hand, and then Only then did I see clearly: Gao Bowen's body had already slumped on the chair, his head had exploded, and red blood and white brain matter spread outward in a radial pattern, including his own face and body, because I am the closest person to Gao Bowen.

Who did it?

Thinking of the cracks on the glass again, he suddenly realized: there are snipers, and there are snipers shooting from a distance! The other party had been planning for a long time, deliberately killed Gao Bowen on the spot when they were in a meeting, this was to give them a blow!

Thinking of this, Li Qingzhi uttered a horrified cry, and then rolled under the table, as if the solid wooden table could protect his safety, the other people also reacted, panicked, some shouted, some ran away, and some He froze in place, not knowing how to avoid it.

No gunshots came again, and the other party seemed to only fire one shot.

A few minutes later, the police arrived and began to deal with the scene. At the same time, a large number of reporters also rushed over after hearing the news. It didn't take long for the news to spread all over the world.

Gao Bowen, an executive of the Singapore Port Group, was shot dead by an unknown gunman, and the police are still arresting the murderer!

In connection with the opening of the Siam Canal, Qiu Daxin, who participated in the opening ceremony, was shot and killed. It is easy to guess whether this is Qiu Daxin's revenge?

But this is just speculation, without any solid evidence, and even the police haven't caught the gunman, who can say that Qiu Daxin instigated it?

Besides, even if Qiu Daxin really instigated it, it would be tit for tat. It was they, the Port Group, who broke the rules first and killed key people at the other party's ceremony, setting a bad precedent. It is also normal.

Some people also found other key points: the glass of the Singapore Port Group Building does not use the glass made in the East. If the glass in the East is used, it will definitely block the bullet!

After all, the two operations are almost exactly the same, both are long-distance shooting, and both are through the glass. It seems that the glass of the East is still reliable!

After this incident, Dongfang’s tempered glass became even more popular. Almost all the glass factories were full of customers who came to place orders. They not only wanted to order, but some also asked Dongfang’s factories to set up factories there to produce the same type of glass. glass to meet their needs.

When Qiu Daxin heard about this, his face was full of excitement, well, finally he got his karma!

Lacourt is very strange: who sent people? I do not know how?

In the east, Qin Tao felt emotional when he heard the news: "This kind of behavior is disgusting! He actually shot and killed other company executives on other people's land! It seems that the investment environment in Singapore is not good, and they will eat peanuts at any time. Come to our East, we have the best investment environment here!"

Xu Zhengyang nodded: "Yes, we have sent a condolence letter, and we strongly condemn this behavior."
