I built an armada.

Chapter 497: Heading for carrier-based aircraft, the Air Force chief is anxious

"I won't waste any more words, I'll just get straight to the point. I came to you because I want you to lend me a few fighter jets."

"Not many. F16, F15, Su-27, and J-10. Give me one of each."

After hearing what Liu Huaming said, Ma Zhengbang was extremely surprised. He didn't understand why the navy suddenly asked him to borrow these fighter jets.

He remembered clearly that the naval aviation force also equipped itself with Su-8 and Su-27 aircraft, which were responsible for the safety of maritime airspace, but in very small numbers.

After all, the navy was not taken seriously in the past, and it was considered very good to be able to get some share of the naval aviation force.

These fighter jets are mainly equipped by the Air Force, and they are still insufficient.

He naturally didn't know that among the fighter jets that Su Dingping needed, the only one the Navy could squeeze out was the Su-27, and that was forcibly taken from the Navy Aviation Combat Sequence.

So Liu Huaming simply borrowed all of them from the Air Force. After all, one less Su-27 aircraft would not affect the combat effectiveness of the Air Force.

Before I even asked the navy for help, Liu Huaming came to me first.

"Old Liu, your navy needs fighter jets..."

Halfway through his words, Ma Zhengbang suddenly remembered that the navy had brought back an abandoned aircraft carrier.

He had heard that the Navy was continuing construction, and suddenly he realized something was wrong.

Could it be?

Immediately, he asked cautiously: "Is your aircraft carrier about to be launched?"

"almost."

Liu Huaming said immediately.

Upon hearing this, Ma Zhengbang immediately became anxious.

"Damn it! Why don't you, the Navy, wait for my Air Force? My Air Force is completely lagging behind this time."

"You're making me lose face."

Liu Huaming said disapprovingly: "We are just looking at the improvement to a carrier-based aircraft. It won't be of any help to your air force, right?"

Ma Zhengbang was helpless and could only agree: "Okay, look how proud you are. I will send someone to deliver it to you in two days."

Although the fighter jet issue was resolved, Liu Huaming still felt heavy-hearted.

"Neither the Air Force nor the Navy has experience in developing carrier-based aircraft. The foundation of the aviation industry is still too weak."

"Su Dingping's next road will be difficult."

He felt very guilty when he thought that the burden on Su Dingping's shoulders had become heavier.

Although Su Dingping would not be treated unfairly in terms of treatment and military rank, there was only one Su Dingping in the entire Longxia tribe, and he was the only one who could be relied upon to obtain the navy's equipment.

Well, all we can say is that those who are capable should do more work.

He also secretly made up his mind to do a good job in providing logistical support for Su Dingping no matter what, and to do the job in all aspects without any blind spots.

Two days later, the four fighter jets requested by Su Dingping were all delivered to the integrated military factory.

Also shipped along with it were relevant supporting data and information.

The F15 and F16 were both captured from the rebels, and the Air Force has not yet figured them out.

Late in the evening, the sky was still covered with clouds.

In the integrated military factory, Su Dingping was already waiting there.

With the arrival of these four fighter jets, the carrier-based aircraft research project was officially launched!
Looking at the four fighter jets in front of him, Su Dingping's mood fluctuated slightly. He took several deep breaths before suppressing the excitement in his heart.

These four fighter jets represent the highest achievements of the Eagle Tribe, White Bear Tribe and Longxia Tribe in the fourth-generation aircraft.

They are all the high-tech crystallizations of the aviation industry departments of the four tribes!

Of course, the Eagle Tribe is also developing the F22, the first fifth-generation stealth fighter on the blue planet.

It is precisely because of the service of the F22 stealth fighter that the Eagle Tribe has put the F15 and F16, a combination of light and heavy fighters, on sale.

As for the J-10 of the Longxia tribe, it is only the first fighter jet to initially enter the fourth-generation aircraft sequence, and the gap between the two is still very large.

The Su-27 of the White Bear Tribe is a very classic fourth-generation fighter, and it is a standard twin-engine configuration, and its benchmark is the F15 fighter of the Eagle Tribe.

It is precisely because these four fighter jets are built by combining the strengths of three companies that Su Dingping took them all at once, and then began to study and thoroughly understand the relevant core technologies from them.

"Reporting to the commander, these two fighters did not suffer any damage from the war."

The handover officer glanced at Su Dingping and reported directly in detail.

"Does this also mean that these two fighters are complete versions?"

Su Dingping then asked again, this question is very crucial.

Although he has the means to verify whether he has been castrated, it is still quite good to be able to obtain the complete version of the information, which saves a lot of trouble.

"Report to the commander, in theory this is the case."

After hearing what the handover officer said, Su Dingping was quite satisfied: "Okay, I understand."

Immediately, he stepped forward and placed his hand on the fuselage of the F16 fighter.

In an instant, the virtual space of the military industry atlas in his consciousness changed significantly, and a virtual panel emerged.

This is the sign that the fighter series illustration is lit up!
"Fourth generation fighter jet - F16 single-seat single-engine 'Fighting Falcon'! Completeness 80%! Note: Temporarily unavailable for upgrade!"

“M61A1火神20毫米航炮技术完整版（解析进度50%，解析时间170天）；信息化电传飞控技术完整版（解析进度44%，解析时间351天）；高推重比、低翼载荷技术完整版(解析进度47%，解析时间371天)；链路数据链保密通信技术完整版(解析进度52%，解析时间181天); APG-66脉冲多普勒雷达技术完整版(解析进度52%，解析时间357天)。”

“AN-74雷达预警系统技术完整版（解析进度34%，解析时间494天）；联合头盔提示系统技术完整版(解析进度49%，解析时间382天)；F110-GE涡扇发动机技术完整版(解析进度35%，解析时间699天)；AN101先进敌我识别器技术完整版(解析进度51%，解析时间419天)。”

Su Dingping looked at the relevant analytical data about this F16 fighter jet and couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Apart from the Haihongqi 901B air defense missile on the -ton destroyer and the land-based version of this air defense missile that was recently handed over to the army, the three armed forces of the Longxia tribe currently have no weapons that can compete with it.

The F16 fighter adopts a very advanced aerodynamic layout, with a maximum flight speed of almost Mach 2, and its stable hovering performance is very superior, which is far beyond the reach of the second-generation aircraft such as the Baye.

Such a fighter will hardly get into trouble in the air unless it encounters advanced air defense missiles like the HQ-901B.

In any case, its maximum ceiling reached 19 km, and its climbing rate was very fast, making it impossible for many anti-aircraft missiles to reach it. However, he also knew that this was actually a castrated version of the F16, just as Chief Ma Zhengbang had said before.

It seems that when the Eagle Tribe said they were helping the rebel forces, they were not really helping them. Instead, they were deliberately holding back and slaughtering the rebels.

You should know that judging from the original transaction price, the batch of F16 fighter jets purchased by the rebels were much more expensive than those purchased by other tribes.

But none of that matters. What matters is that this batch of fighter jets finally fell into Long Xia’s hands.

As long as Su Dingping is given a certain amount of time, he will be able to completely replicate such a fighter, and it will be a complete version. The relevant technical and tactical performance will be comparable to those used by the Eagle Tribe Air Force.

Next, Su Dingping turned his attention to the F15 twin-engine fighter.

In his opinion, the F15 and F16 fighter jets are the classic combination of light and heavy aircraft developed by the Eagle Tribe. There is not much difference in their combat performance, but they have different focuses.

Just as he guessed, when he placed his hand on the F15 fuselage, the F15 attribute panel in the virtual space of the military industry atlas in his mind did not light up. As expected, only the most advanced ones were lit up as before.

After F16 is turned on, F15 will basically not light up.

In fact, this is the same principle as what he has recently realized: no matter how things change, they still remain essentially the same.

The internal essence is the same, so the military illustrations virtual space will no longer analyze the performance of similar, or the first level.

"Ah, it's still the same, only the most advanced ones appear."

Su Dingping couldn't help but sigh in his heart and could only obey the system.

However, the F15 is not a waste. At least it has brought a 16% improvement in the overall progress of the analysis of F7-related core technologies.

This is also a considerable gain.

After calming down, he walked towards the J-10.

Looking at this Raptor fighter, Su Dingping was filled with emotion. It adopts a canard layout, and the front of the air intake is supported by six sticks, so it is also called a stick machine by military fans.

It was not the clam-type air intake used in the abdomen in later generations, commonly known as the DSI design. It directly became a super 4th generation aircraft and was even exported to multiple tribes.

The Air Force has only equipped a small number of this fighter jets so far, and the Naval Aviation Force has not even one. It has a reputation as a pride aircraft.

Therefore, his understanding of this fighter jet is only superficial, and he still needs to look at the data in the military industry atlas to understand its specific performance.

Taking a deep breath, Su Dingping reached out and gently stroked the fuselage. At the same time, the attributes of the J-10 fighter jet in the virtual space of the military industry atlas in his mind were lit up, and various data were immediately presented on the attribute panel.

"Fourth generation fighter jet - J-10 single-seat single-engine 'Menglong'! Completeness 100%! Note: Temporarily unavailable for upgrade!"

“23毫米加特林炮系统技术完整版(解析进度85%，解析时间30天)；全惯性定位组合导航系统技术完整版(解析进度52%，解析时间212天)；AL-31F涡扇喷气发动机完整版(解析进度53%，解析时间385天)；平显火控系统技术完整版(解析进度67%，解析时间223天)；超视距精确制导系统技术完整版(解析进度45%，解析时间291天)；全权限三轴四余度数字电传飞控系统技术完整版(解析进度65%，解析时间341天)；脉冲多普勒JL-10雷达完整版(解析进度95%，解析时间23天)……”

Su Dingping immediately compared the various data of the F16 fighter with the J-10A. The J-10A had inferior cockpit visibility, no helmet display system, a less than ideal thrust-to-weight ratio, and some minor problems with the cockpit layout.

The J-10A does not have no advantages at all. It is better than the F10 in supersonic performance, take-off and landing performance, and data link.

In comparison, the performance of the J-10A is unsatisfactory.

But after thinking about it carefully, Su Dingping understood.

In later generations, the F16 is a world-renowned single-engine fighter. Many tribes purchase it from the Eagle Tribe. It can be said that it is a fighter with very high sales volume.

The Donghuang tribe's F2 fighter jets and subsequent models were improved based on the F16.

The aircraft designs of other tribes are almost all based on the F16 fighter to a greater or lesser extent!

The J-10 is a fighter jet developed independently by the Longxia tribe under the blockade of external technology. It can be said to be the epitome of domestic aviation industry technology.

You have to know that at that time, domestic aviation technology was far behind that of foreign countries. It was very good to be able to achieve this step.

It is precisely because of this truly fourth-generation aircraft that a group of scientific research and technical talents have been trained for the Longxia tribe.

This led to the subsequent explosive growth of Longxia fighter jets.

It was an extremely difficult road, but we managed to make it through and received support from the Air Force.

Seeing that the analysis progress of the J-10 was so fast, Su Dingping also knew that this was because the analysis progress had made great strides forward based on what was gained after touching the F16.

"Sir, this is the J-10 fighter jet we independently developed. The technology is derived from the early J-9 fighter jet technology plan. We have complete independent intellectual property rights."

"When Commander Ma heard that your navy was in urgent need of it, he directly brought the best fighter planes here."

The handover entourage nearby walked up to Su Dingping and explained loudly.

"Commander Ma is thoughtful. Thank you very much."

Su Dingping was quite moved by what he heard and expressed his sincere gratitude.

"By the way, do you have any data related to the aircraft laboratory? And any data related to the wind tunnel test?"

Su Dingping then started asking again.

If he could obtain detailed first-hand research and development data of the J-10 from the Air Force, he believed that the analysis progress of the J-10 would be greatly accelerated.

Hearing this, the other party's face showed obvious embarrassment.

What Su Dingping requested already involved the top core engine technology of the Air Force, wind tunnel test data and other confidential information. If this were to be leaked, the J-10 fighter would be like running naked in front of the enemy fighter.

"You don't have to rush to reply. Please just tell Commander Ma when you return."

Seeing this, Su Dingping was not in a hurry and said immediately.

"Thank you for your understanding, Chief."

The staff member said with a grateful look on his face.

Seeing that it was almost done, Su Dingping waved his hand and the staff immediately took the four fighter jets away.

Su Dingping returned to the laboratory without stopping and picked up a large book on aircraft engine manufacturing and testing and began to read it.

Then his consciousness appeared in the military industry illustration forging space.

On the fighter jet illustration panel wall, the illustrations of the F16 and J-10 fighter jets have been lit up, and there is also a Su-27 and F15 next to them, which are also lit up.

As his mind turned, four fighter jets immediately appeared on the space apron and stopped together with the gray U-2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft.

Of course, none of these fighter jets were actually built, but were reproduced through virtual technology of military industrial illustrations, making them more intuitive to study.
