Become a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council!

This is the desire of many countries. In another world, whether it is India, the country with the largest population, or Japan, the former second largest economy, and Germany, they have all been eager to become permanent members of the UN Security Council.

They made proposals again and again, and their hopes were dashed again and again.

What are the five permanent members?
In a word, they are the five big gangsters!
Thanks to the advanced information in another world, Li Yian knows too much about the international ecological model of this small broken ball. To sum it up in one sentence, it is sanctimonious on the surface, always mentioning international law, but in fact it is a gangster.

The five big gangsters have never been a good reputation, but just the rules of the international political game. The so-called United Nations is actually the stage for the five big gangsters, where there are only the five big gangsters and other countries.

Nanyang...also other countries.

The current United Nations is still in its infancy and is just a useless "waste paper maker". The five big gangsters have not yet realized the role of this "waste paper maker". In this case, as long as Nanyang can demonstrate its own "united front value", it still has a very good chance of becoming a permanent member.

"The crucial vote is Russia! As long as Russia does not object, Nanyang becoming a permanent member will be a foregone conclusion!"

Once again, in the study, Li Yian was reading the intelligence brief and silently thinking about his next plan.

The Suez Canal crisis was merely an opportunity for Nanyang to demonstrate the value of its united front and enter the international stage.

What will happen next?

Budapest...

With his eyes closed, Li Yian was thinking about the next step of the plan. A smile appeared on his face, blooming little by little:

"That's right... As long as we make good use of these opportunities, we can push Nanyang to a suitable position."

A suitable location!

What is this position?
Twenty years later, Southeast Asia will not only become the world's second largest economy, but its population will also exceed 1.5 million. By the s, it is very likely to exceed million, becoming a truly powerful country not only in terms of population, but also in terms of economy and technology, surpassing the United States, or at least being on par with it.

As the second largest country on the blue planet, if Nanyang is not a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, would it have the nerve to go out and say hello to others?

Not to mention Southeast Asia, even India has been seeking to become a permanent member of the UN Security Council since the 1980s.

Now, of course, Li Yian has to make plans for the future of Nanyang.

Li Yian took a deep breath as he pondered over in his mind the stepping stones that needed to be laid and the final implementation on the road to becoming a permanent member of the Security Council.

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step... Now is just the beginning, the key is to play the technical card well!"

The technical card is crucial, and this is even the greatest united front value in Nanyang!
none of them!

……

“…The Ministry of Foreign Affairs once again urges all parties to the conflict in the Arabian Peninsula to exercise restraint in order to avoid a humanitarian disaster, and calls on the international community to take appropriate measures to ensure the safety of oil-producing areas and prevent them from being affected by the war.”

Listening to the news coming from the car radio, Zhang Ke was still a little distracted even though he was driving. Today was the day of the F2 fighter jet test flight.

In February last year, the Ministry of National Defense and Nanyang Aerospace Industries signed a detailed technical specification list for the YF2 fighter, manufacturing two light single-engine all-weather fighters, fully missile-equipped, and the aircraft should be relatively cheap, easy to maintain, and able to take off and land from short runways and secondary airports as well as aircraft carriers. Three months later, the company received a contract to manufacture 2 new aircraft, including two prototypes and one ground static test aircraft.

From that day on, the Tanke Design Institute began the development of a new fighter jet. The development of the new fighter jet went very smoothly. It took only one year and six months to complete the manufacture of the prototype.

After more than a month of preparation, it was finally time for the test flight.

Soon, Zhang Ke, the project leader of the YF2 fighter, arrived at the airport. In the hangar, a blue-gray fighter appeared before his eyes. Looking at the plane in front of him, his eyes were full of expectations. Although he was the father of the plane, he still couldn't help but examine it with scrutiny. While he was examining the plane, an older designer came to his side and said:
"It's so beautiful!"

"Yeah, it's really beautiful!"

Zhang Ke smiled and said:

"It's not only beautiful, but also the best. After all, it is the result of ten years of aerodynamic research in Nanyang!"

The aerodynamic design of the YF2 fighter is unique. Its biggest feature is the winglet design. The winglet technology was invented by the Nanyang Aerodynamics Research Institute a few years ago. From the effect point of view, although it only uses a simple winglet design with an area of ​​less than 3% of the main wing, the maximum lift coefficient is increased by more than 20% compared with the design without winglets. Of course, this is only the data obtained from the wind test, and further test flights are needed.

Unlike the US and Soviet fighters, which generally emphasize "high altitude and high speed", i.e., a maximum ceiling of 20000 meters, a maximum speed of 2.0 Mach, and an emphasis on intercepting high-altitude bombers, they focused on optimizing subsonic aerodynamic drag reduction when designing the YF-2 fighter, and greatly improved the subsonic lift-to-drag ratio. The wingtip pylons are used to pull vortices, and the sweep angle is moderate. While ensuring supersonic performance, the high subsonic lift-to-drag ratio and weapon mounting capacity are optimized. The front of the wing adopts a unique side strip design. The side strips effectively pull vortexes to reduce the load on the wings, further reducing the wing load, greatly improving the aircraft lift coefficient at subsonic speeds, and giving it excellent combat performance in the subsonic field.

This optimization is also determined by the environment faced by the Nanyang Air Force - there is no need to intercept enemy bombers carrying nuclear weapons. The surrounding countries do not have nuclear weapons at all, so there is naturally no need to intercept them. Therefore, compared to high-speed interception, the air combat environment faced by the Nanyang Air Force is more of a mobile combat, so naturally the focus is on optimizing this performance.

Of course, this does not mean that its speed is slow. According to calculations, its speed exceeds 2.1 Mach, which is only 104 Mach slower than the F0.1 that emphasizes high altitude and high speed. This is directly related to their meticulous drag reduction when designing the YF2 fighter. Of course, another reason is that its engine thrust is at a relatively high level among similar fighters.

Looking at the younger brother beside him, Peng Xiaolu's eyes were full of admiration. Compared with them, aircraft engineers like Zhang Ke who grew up in Southeast Asia were bolder and more radical. Of course, they were also born in the best era. Unlike them, they only had a passion to serve the country, but were limited by technology and funding, and did not achieve much.

"The winglet technology greatly improves the lift coefficient of the aircraft and improves its maneuverability, but it is also very bold for you to adopt this latest research result."

“Thanks to the director’s support.”

As soon as Zhang Ke finished speaking, the head of the design institute, Tan Ke, came over with several engineers. When he saw Zhang Ke, he smiled.

"How is it? It will be tested soon. Are you confident?"

In fact, the prototype of this YF2 fighter was Tan Ke's design, but Zhang Ke made a lot of modifications to his design, boldly adopting the most advanced aerodynamic research results and a series of new technologies.

As a teacher, Tan Ke did not reject his design because of his authority, but gave full support. It must be said that Tan Ke was very successful in training students.

"It will definitely succeed, the only pity is the engine."

Zhang Ke said helplessly.

"It was originally planned to use a turbofan engine, but due to the delay in the development of new turbofan engines, it can only use General Electric's J79 turbojet engine, which may affect its performance."

This is also a technical helplessness. Although Nanyang's aviation engines are at the world's leading level, due to the complexity of turbofan engines, the new engine has not yet been finalized, and the J79 turbojet engine can only be used temporarily. Although it is currently the world's best turbojet engine, it is still a turbojet engine after all, with high fuel consumption and slightly lower thrust, so it naturally cannot bring out its full performance. But before there is a better choice, the J79 turbojet engine is their only choice.

Looking at the helplessness on the student's face, Tan Ke smiled.

"Then think on the bright side. The new fighter jets of the US Air Force all use General Electric's J79 turbojet engine. If the YF2 fighter jet can successfully complete its test flight and pass the Air Force's acceptance, then when it is exported in the future, customers will have one more choice. They can use our turbofan engine or the cheaper J79 turbojet engine!"

It has to be said that Tan Ke has a more unique perspective on the problem. When the mechanic was inspecting the plane, he turned his head and said.

"The Air Force representative is here too. We will test-fly at 10 a.m. on time. Is there any problem?"

Although he is the chief designer, many details are handled by the students, so he asked this question.

In response to the teacher's question, Zhang Ke said.

"Don't worry, teacher, everything is fine!"
