Plane Merchant's Dream of a Powerful Country

Chapter 295 Kashmir and Xiaolong investigation test flight

The main plane Earth, India's capital New Delhi, a hidden private residential estate near the suburbs.Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is waiting for a distinguished guest here.A few minutes later, Secretary of Defense AK Anthony walked into the house.

"Your Excellency Anthony, you are here." Prime Minister Singh got up and greeted him.Although he is the person with the highest power in India, this is only in the legal sense.In the eyes of the major factions in the army, Anthony is the one who holds the highest power in India.For this reason, the national defense funds that the government allocates to the military each year increase again and again to meet the various military equipment purchases they propose to deal with "threats".

"Hello, Your Excellency Singer, what can I do for you?" AK Anthony asked.

Anthony belongs to the domestic hardliners in India, who support the strengthening of the army, and give priority to arming and enhancing the combat power of the air force.Under his influence, over the past few years, the Indian Air Force has successively purchased weapons and equipment such as advanced trainer aircraft, anti-aircraft missiles, reconnaissance aircraft and third-generation fighter jets.And signed an agreement with Russia to jointly develop fifth-generation fighter jets and multi-purpose transport aircraft with stealth functions.

"Your Excellency Anthony, you should be more aware of the actual situation in the country. The ports and other infrastructure in the coastal states have been seriously damaged. The three industrial states of Mumbai, Calcutta and Ahmedabad were all damaged to varying degrees due to the tsunami. Bangalore It is also due to the direct hit of meteor fragments that most of them disappeared, and it can be said that the entire Indian economy has been hit semi-destructively." Singh said in a low voice.

"I know, for this reason, I have ordered the army, naval ships, and air force's transport planes to devote all their efforts to disaster relief operations in various places. However, due to problems such as domestic road damage, insufficient material reserves, and shortage of medical personnel, disaster relief in a small number of remote areas The activity was not going well." Anthony felt that Singer might be complaining to himself this time, hoping that he would send more troops, so he revealed between the lines that he had already dispatched most of the combat power and troops he could send.

"What I want to say is that there is a sense of desperation in the country now, and a small number of hostile elements are spreading propaganda, military violence and other related remarks in the disaster area. If left unchecked, it is likely to cause a chain reaction."

"What do you mean?" Anthony frowned.

"I think India now needs a 'victory' to boost domestic morale."

"Victory?" Anthony couldn't help sitting up straight when he heard the word, and straightened his back from the sofa. He put his hands on his knees, stared at Singer, and asked with bright pupils, " With whose victory? Yanhuang or Pakistan?"

A while ago, Anthony had just inspected the northeastern border province of Sikkim in India (Yanhuang generally referred to as 'Southern Tibet').He witnessed the India-China border with his own eyes. On the opposite side of Yanhuang, there are smooth roads and neat barracks, while on the Indian side, there are mostly rugged and muddy mountain roads.Moreover, in order to reach the mountain pass at the border, Anthony, who chose car transportation, endured bumps and bumps on the rough road for several hours. It was definitely an unforgettable and unpleasant inspection experience.However, this also made Anthony deeply understand that in terms of the logistics support and transport capacity of the troops alone, the opening of the entire line of the Yanhuang-Qinghai-Tibet Railway and the condescending geographical advantages of several kilometers have already made Yanhuang obtain and possess great innate military advantages before the war started. strategic advantage.Therefore, with regard to Yanhuang, Anthony only talked about threats and influence verbally to the outside world. In his heart, he never envisaged any plans or assumptions for a real war between the two countries, even after India's defeat in 1962. part of the idea of ​​a revenge battle.

"Of course not with Yanhuang. Unless we are ready for a full-scale national war, or have the Stars and Stripes officially declare war on Yanhuang and completely destroy its air force, it is impossible for India to go to war against Yanhuang alone." Singer shook The head with the blue Indian hood, replied.

"Then there's only Pakistan left." Anthony stroked his clean-shaven chin with his right hand and continued.Due to the conscious propaganda and public opinion guidance of the Indian government, the only countries that can arouse the "hate value" and resonance of the Indian people are the Yanhuang Republic and Pakistan.As for Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, Indians treat Vietnam and the Philippines as if they were yellow.

"Last year's Leonid meteor storm, Pakistan had the help of Yanhuang's 'Panlong Defense System' particle cannon, and its coastal area was at the end of the Indian Ocean, so Pakistan did not suffer any losses, whether it was inland or coastal areas, and we Compared with the huge loss of the country, it can be described as one day at a time. Therefore, if our air force can win an air battle against some areas of Pakistan, I believe it will have a very good role in boosting the morale of the domestic people and restoring the confidence of the people after the disaster.”

"The air force is not a consumable. They cannot be sacrificed in vain, and the troops that have been built with huge sums of money are wasted in a war of attrition that has no military significance." Hearing that launching a battle that is not beneficial to oneself and the army, losing troops and weakening the strength of subordinates , Anthony shook his head immediately.

"I feel that the natural disasters and tsunami have exposed the problem that our army does not have enough helicopters, the air force does not have enough transport planes, and the navy's logistics support ships are insufficient. Under certain circumstances, I will suggest to the cabinet that in this year's national budget, Additional special funds will be used to improve these problems." In order to keep his prime ministership, which has gradually become precarious due to the public opinion attacks launched by the opposition party, Singh revealed the first price he offered.

"After the air battle, the war-damaged aircraft also need to be supplemented accordingly. In addition, this year's defense budget will be increased by 15%." After thinking for more than ten seconds, Anthony stated his conditions.

"5%, this is the largest percentage I am sure of. This year's economic downturn and tax reduction are inevitable. I need to balance the demands and opinions of various domestic parties."

"10%, this is the bottom line!"

Singer heard Anthony's quotation and saw the unyielding eyes of the other party, gritted his teeth and replied: "Okay, but I need a hearty victory!"

"As you wish, Your Excellency the Prime Minister!" Anthony smiled contentedly after meeting his request.

The next day, the sparse gunshots of fighting began to resound in the Kashmir border area, and the Indian army began to find excuses and warm up public opinion for the air battle in the near future.

Yanhuang Continent, Jinhai City.

"You said that India and Pakistan will resume war?" Wang Fan asked in surprise after hearing Yadi's narration.

"Yes, according to my pre-installed monitoring programs on the Internet and various military equipment around the world, in order to divert domestic conflicts, India is very likely to initiate a local war."

"Kashmir?"

"80% is estimated to be there. Since India and Pakistan are both nuclear powers, it is impossible to have a large-scale ground invasion war of a national nature."

"Yardi, help me pull out a map of India."

"ok!"

Soon, a high-magnification three-dimensional map of India appeared in front of Wang Fan.

"This is Kashmir." Wang Fan pointed to the northwestern part of India. After thinking for a while, he asked, "I remember the domestic media reported that there is a 'Yanhuang State' in India. Where does that refer?"

"You are talking about 'Manipur', which is in the northeast of India. According to the above information, it is a state that desperately desires independence, and it is also a state that is blocked by the Indian government. Even if Indians want to go there, they need to go there first." It is even more difficult for foreigners to apply for a special pass. In addition, the people there worship dragon totems and have great hatred for India. The local residents are mainly yellow-skinned, speak Chinese-Tibetan languages, and look exactly like Yanhuang people. , and it is far from the traditional Indians. In addition, it also has armed forces against the Indian army called pla (everyone is familiar with it ^_^), and their flags and military emblems are even more six-star red flags and hexagonal military emblems. And with It is adjacent to 'Nagaland', 'Sikkim', 'Meghalaya', 'Bengal', 'Andhra Pradesh' and 'Tamil Nadu' in southern India, and 'Hi' in the northwest. Machal Pradesh is a state with a relatively strong tendency towards independence."

Wang Fan couldn't help squinting his eyes when he looked at the red state plate map that almost surrounded India's northwest, northeast, and southeast sides and formed a half circle.

"So what's the biggest problem with their independence now?"

"It is mainly the Indian army. The Indian Army, which is equipped with millions of main battle tanks and a large number of armored vehicles, is not just a guard of honor."

"So if the threat of the army disappears in a large area, and these countries suddenly have enough weapons..." Wang Fan slapped his mouth.

"The result will definitely be very interesting..." Yadi, who was afraid of chaos in the world, said in a persuasive manner.

At the same time, Pakistan.

Since Pakistan and India have fought three wars with real knives and guns, the possibility of another national war breaking out in the future is not out of the question, so the Pakistani army is very strict in preparing for actual combat.In the third India-Pakistan war, if it were not for the heroic performance of the Pakistan Air Force at the critical moment, Pakistan would have been in danger of "subjugation" in history.So after the end of the third India-Pakistan war, knowing that the comprehensive national strength and army strength are far behind India's Pakistani military executives, they unanimously decided to spend a lot of money to build and arm their own air force and implement asymmetric tactics.

In addition, due to the 7:45 attack of the Israeli Air Force that shocked the world in the third Middle East War: it made the Egyptian Air Force, which was built according to the Soviet model at that time (arrange all fighter jets in a row, or park them on the ground) In a stacked aircraft fort), it took only a few minutes for the Israeli Air Force to wipe out nearly 400 combat aircraft of various types.Therefore, since then, all countries in the world have adopted the air force base construction model of building reinforced fortress hangars and building multiple runways.Therefore, in Pakistan, most of the air force bases have built fortified bunkers, and even the old-fashioned J-7p fighters manufactured by Yanhuang can enjoy the best parking treatment for aircraft forts.

The Sargoda Air Force Base of the Pakistan Air Force is 592 kilometers away from New Delhi, India. It has 3 runways and at least 6 aircraft fort groups.

Jacob Abad base, double runways, 7 aircraft fort groups (the number of aircraft forts exceeds the actual needs, so that India cannot distinguish which aircraft fort is actually stationed for fighter jets), and it is equipped with the most elite 18 fighter jets in Pakistan. F-16block52 fighter jets.

Peshawar Air Force Base, which is also the home of Thunder (Fierce Dragon) fighters, is the location of the 36th Tactical Attack Wing. However, due to insufficient funds, there is only one runway here for the time being, but the corresponding enhanced aircraft fortress group has not been cut and cut corners.

Pakistan, Kamla Airport.

Kamla Airport cannot be regarded as a real air force base in Pakistan.It is only 62 kilometers away from Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, and has a runway, but the aircraft forts are very scattered.The newly introduced thunder fighter from Yanhuang, namely jf-17 (Fierce Dragon), is produced and assembled here.

Because some time ago, a Xiaolong fighter plane crashed and crashed during training in Pakistan (a real event, not a fiction, there is news), so the Yanhuang government specially sent a technical expert inspection team led by Deputy Chief Engineer Ding to work with Wang Zonghuai and others. With the assistance of several pilots, they went to Kamla to investigate the cause.At this time, the test flight arranged for investigation is in progress.

"The meteorological team reports, and the Kamla Meteorological Center reports that it will be cloudy from now until two o'clock in the afternoon, with a southeasterly wind of force [-] and no air turbulence, so we can take off." The tower chief's voice came from the tower.In order to find out the reason, according to the black box data records of the accident plane, super pilot Wang Yan and Huang Zonghuai will repeat the flight trajectory of the Pakistani pilot at that time, but just in case, the safety facilities such as the ejection seat have been checked several times. Confirm that it is ready for ejection at any time.

"The station reports that the runway has been cleared, and it is agreed to take off!"

"The radar system is working normally, and the airspace of the test flight has been reconfirmed. There are no obstacles and other aircraft, and everything is normal."

At this time, Wang Zonghuai had already put on his flight helmet, sat in the cockpit of the Xiaolong fighter, put on his breathing mask, fastened his seat belt, and the cockpit of the fighter jet was also slowly closed under his operation.

Thanks to Yanhuang's ever-improving defense technology, the Xiaolong fighter is not inferior to the world's advanced fighters. The head-up display can not only provide basic flight information, but also provide interception information, target information, and other information required for the final attack stage. .The multi-function display next to it displays information such as weapon management system, fire control radar, map, electronic warfare, guidance horizon, horizontal position indicator, alarm test, automatic check list, etc., of course, such as airspeed, Mach number, barometric altitude, magnetic Heading, pitch and roll information, overload, turn rate, sideslip, angle of attack, vertical speed and trim amount have corresponding control display devices.

Following the ok gesture of the ground crew, Wang Zonghuai lightly waved his arm and manipulated the aircraft, only to hear the sharp whistling of the tail nozzle, the visible air wave ripples appeared and disturbed the line of sight, and the Xiaolong fighter began to drive slowly towards the starting point of the runway, and at the same time It began to accelerate gradually, and then left the ground with a roar and rushed into the sky.

"Leaving the runway, the airframe is normal!" Wang Zonghuai reported in a calm tone through the communicator the moment the plane left the ground.
