Chapter 406 [Y-50 Exposed]

The third brother's move resulted in a 6-0 defeat, and it's no exaggeration to say that this defeat ruined his country's fortunes.

From now on, when the Third Brother speaks on the international stage, no one will take him seriously anymore.

The cost of this move was far too high. Brother San didn't understand the rhythm that led to his own demise, and his future fate is destined to be extremely tragic.

The three permanent members of the UN Security Council originally wanted to find an opportunity to slow down their power struggle, but now that the third brother has suddenly appeared and offered himself up, that's perfect. The third brother's size is undeniable; he's a piece of easy prey.

Importantly, neither the West nor the East has been able to make money from the subcontinental market.

Because no matter who you are, if you do business with your third brother, the money you earn there can only be spent there; you can't even think about taking it home.

The subcontinental market is so big, yet no one has made much money there. They've been unhappy with India for a long time.

Judging from the current situation, it's highly likely that the third brother will be sacrificed and put on the menu in the future.

In any case, India is a large country with a market of over a billion people. If it can share the spoils, everyone can be well-fed for a while.

For the East, the subcontinent's geographical location is precisely the only way to pass through the maritime and land Silk Roads, and the Indians here are always causing trouble.

Therefore, a fragmented subcontinent is more in line with the East's needs. Not only will the Silk Road strategy in this area no longer be affected, but it will also be able to share in the huge market of the subcontinent, and there will be no more hidden dangers in the south.

Xiao Ba's "buyer's show" made "China Machinery Equipment" famous overnight. Now the whole world has to re-evaluate China Machinery Equipment. Previously, the export version of the J-10CE was priced at 4000 million US dollars and came with PL-15 missiles, but even that was not very popular.

Now the world has witnessed the Rafale, priced at $2 million, being utterly outmatched by the J-10CE, which costs $4000 million. After this real-world test, it's highly unlikely that you can buy it for $4000 million now; you'll have to pay more. And if you want the PL-15, you'll have to pay even more.

This time, the third brother's amazing move not only got him into trouble, but also gave his northern neighbor a huge boost. Chengfei is probably laughing in his sleep right now.

……

In mid-month, another major piece of news emerged: Amirika met with the Eastern side to discuss customs and water-related issues.

There were a lot of people outside just now, but now I'm kneeling down before you.

There's not much to say about this round; it's just that Ah Mei immediately backed down, basically kneeling on her knees. If Ah Mei hadn't backed down and hadn't knelt on her knees, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to negotiate.

To be fair, Xiao Ba made a significant contribution this time, and Third Brother's assist was nothing short of divine.

Even the "basic" J-10CE in Xiaoba's hands is this powerful, let alone the top-of-the-line J-16, J-20, and even the super-plus version of the J-36 in Dongfang's home.

This is nothing; you'll die if you try it.

Originally, Amei was thinking that Third Brother would give Xiaoba a good beating this time, and then see how Dongfang would respond.

As a result, the first half ended, and Third Brother crashed out. Nobody expected Third Brother to be so incompetent and useless. Even if he couldn't beat them, he should at least have been evenly matched. Even if the fight was back and forth, he shouldn't have been so passive. Unfortunately, Third Brother was unilaterally crushed and beaten.

This time, it's fair to say that the third brother really suffered, because he started the fight, was in the wrong, and was then brutally beaten by Xiao Ba.

The worst part is that when the Indian guy looked back, he realized that no one was on his side anymore. Neither the French nor the French were on his side. This move by the Indian guy shattered the myth of the French Rafale, and the French Su-30 also lost face. They must have cursed the Indian guy countless times in private.

Even Ah Mei doesn't say a word for Third Brother. Expect Ah Mei to help? You'll really step up when something happens, but Ah Mei really won't.

Shifting the perspective to India reveals that its external environment has deteriorated to an unacceptable level overnight, with extremely heavy consequences. India is making the wrong choice no matter what it chooses now. If it backs down, it will lose all its voice in the international arena, and no one will take it seriously anymore. It will have to accept whatever others say, and the idea of ​​playing both sides will be impossible.

If they don't back down, then they'll escalate the situation and go all out to get back at the top. That's playing with fire. If they lose again, then Third Brother will be completely destroyed, becoming Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother...

……

A week later, Xiao Yu received an internal notification from above to continue the deterrent operation.

That is to release some information about the "Yun-50" transport aircraft project, which was only recently approved.

Given the current situation, there's no need to hide anything or maintain a low profile like before.

The Strategic Deception Bureau has been completely shut down; from now on, it will be a time of constant warfare against terrorism.

That same afternoon, AVIC (Aviation Industry Corporation of China) was the first to release a promotional video on social media. At the end of the video was a "big surprise"—a CG video showing the front view of a mysterious aircraft, but with its entire body covered by a curtain.

This CG video not only attracted the attention of domestic military enthusiasts, but also drew a large international audience.

The most attention-grabbing element is the plane covered by a curtain at the end of the video, which is also a hot topic among military enthusiasts.

Although it's just a frontal shot and the whole body is covered by a curtain, a lot of important information can still be gleaned from it.

First of all, the features of this aircraft are quite consistent with the aerodynamic layout of a fighter jet. It is obviously a flying wing and has no vertical tail, because there is no protruding vertical tail feature at the tail.

Military enthusiasts are speculating whether this is the fourth sixth-generation fighter jet.
Good grief, is it really necessary to be so competitive? Competing against themselves? This makes other countries in the world lose face, since all known sixth-generation fighters are from the East.

Clearly, no one guessed correctly; no one even considered the possibility of a transport plane.

First, this CG animation has no reference point, so it's impossible to determine the specific size and parameters of the aircraft from it; second, and most importantly, the aerodynamic layout of this aircraft looks exactly like a fighter jet, and currently, no transport aircraft in the world would have such a design concept.

Just as military enthusiasts were speculating, three hours after AVIC released the video, Xiao Yu suddenly updated his Weibo account with a new post.

He also posted a screenshot of the mysterious aircraft at the end of the AVIC (Aviation Industry Corporation of China) video on his Weibo account, along with the following text:

[No one on the entire internet guessed it right. I can't hold back any longer, so I have to drop a bombshell: AVIC Linfei was also a participant in the project of this aircraft. The information I'm about to reveal is really something.]

This is not another new sixth-generation fighter jet, but a transport aircraft, that's right, a transport aircraft, and a strategic long-range heavy transport aircraft at that.

Number: Y-50.

The Y-50 will be the world's first all-electric strategic long-range heavy transport aircraft, and also the first heavy transport aircraft with vertical takeoff and landing capabilities.

The aerodynamic layout doesn't look like a transport plane at all; it looks more like a fighter jet.

Because the traditional aerodynamic layout design of transport aircraft cannot achieve supersonic penetration capability, but we want this aircraft to have supersonic penetration capability.

Therefore, it has this aerodynamic layout, which looks like a fighter jet, but is actually a transport aircraft.
