My girlfriend is from 1949

Actually, when he first saw the anti-aircraft guns, Commander Chiang was quite excited.

After all, his current position as the head of the Shanghai Flight Force is only slightly better than being a commander without any real power.

He also had two anti-aircraft guns under his command.

However, they are all old-fashioned, originally seized from the Japanese.

As for fighter jets, there wasn't a single one.

If the Kuomintang reactionaries' fighter jets came over, he could only watch helplessly.

Not to mention Shanghai, even if Beiping were in the same situation, they would be powerless to help.

It was attacked time and again, causing huge losses.

The Kuomintang reactionaries were extremely arrogant.

They don't send bombers that can fly 8500 meters and are out of reach of anti-aircraft guns.

Instead, they dispatched fighter jets to fire dive bombers.

They completely disregarded the limited air defense firepower.

Historically, it was only in a short period of one year that the Kuomintang reactionaries dared to launch 77 attacks.

It happens about once a week.

How could Shanghai possibly develop under such frequent bombing?

The electricity and water supply were all attacked.

It even went back to the era before electric lights, when people could only rely on kerosene lamps for illumination at night.

Without electricity, the factory was naturally affected.

With factories unable to operate, workers naturally couldn't earn money for food.

What the Kuomintang reactionaries wanted was to incite chaos in Shanghai.

Typical: I can't beat you, but I can disgust you!

However, when Commander Chiang saw these twin-barreled anti-aircraft guns, his eyes lit up.

Although we are still somewhat lacking in the ability to shoot down high-altitude bombers.

But for dive-bombing fighters, that's a piece of cake.

The Type 74 37mm twin-barreled anti-aircraft gun was like using an anti-aircraft gun to kill a mosquito when it was used to shoot propeller planes during World War II!

This gun is mainly used to engage aerial targets at a slant distance of 3500 meters and a speed of 300 meters per second.

It can fire at ground and water targets when necessary, and has the capability to fire while stationary and while moving.

The ammunition is the same as that of the Type 65, the rate of fire is 440-480 rounds per minute, and the effective firing altitude is 3000 meters.

Even in modern times, it is still in use after being modified.

However, the target of the attack has become anti-drone weapons.

Therefore, if obtained in 1949, it would definitely be a powerful tool for low-altitude defense.

When Commander Chiang saw this anti-aircraft gun, he was like a starving man, wishing he could take this treasure home immediately!

but……

The saying goes, "Without comparison, there is no harm."

Upon seeing the Qianwei-1 portable man-portable air defense missile, I suddenly felt that anti-aircraft guns were no longer appealing.

A missile that a soldier can launch by simply carrying it on his shoulder—that's incredibly advanced!

After all, this missile will not be unveiled to the world for more than forty years.

The missile employs a single-chamber dual-thrust solid rocket motor and infrared/ultraviolet dual-mode guidance.

The missile is 1.532 meters long, 71 millimeters in diameter, weighs 16.9 kilograms, and has an operational range of 500 to 5000 meters.

Operational altitude: 15 to 4000 meters; operational reaction time: 10 seconds.

It also has omnidirectional attack capabilities and a "fire and forget" feature.

Pakistan acquired the missile and shot down an Indian fighter jet in combat.

Therefore, our weapons shooting down India's warplanes has been a tradition that has remained unchanged for decades.

With this portable missile, a soldier can carry it and run, and fire it anywhere.

The bulky twin-barreled anti-aircraft gun immediately lost its appeal.

If the Kuomintang reactionaries' fighter planes dared to come, they would probably only see an object rapidly approaching, and then nothing more.

Even if the Kuomintang reactionaries racked their brains, they would never have imagined that the impoverished People's Liberation Army would use missiles to shoot down fighter jets!

Commander Chiang originally thought that with the Vanguard 1 in hand, he could at least hold his head high and deal a powerful blow to the Kuomintang's air force.

Unexpectedly, deeper inside, there were HQ-2 air defense missiles placed on launchers!

The appearance of this missile is very similar to that of the Soviet SAM air defense missile.

Because initially, it was modeled after its predecessor, but it has been continuously improved and is now completely different from the original.

Just like the H-6 bomber, which has been in service for decades, it still looks like it was decades ago, a copy of its older brother, the Tu-16 bomber.

However, after decades of research and development, everything from the engine to the internal operating system and other components has been updated and replaced.

Apart from its outer shell, its internal performance has nothing to do with the Tu-16.

There's also a saying: It's not that we're afraid of losing many Sixth Masters, it's that we're afraid of losing just one!

The HQ-2 missile was originally a copy of the Soviet SAM-75, and its Chinese name is SAM-2.

However, the HQ-2 and the SAM are now completely different.

It was finalized in 1967, based on the Hongqi-1 platform with 21 technical improvements.

The core improvement is in its ability to resist electronic interference, making it an independently developed and upgraded model rather than a simple copy.

Moreover, it has been continuously optimized over the years, and its technology is decades ahead of its time.

It's a true technological crushing victory.

Not to mention the outdated bombers that the Kuomintang imported from the United States, even if a U-2 came, it would be easily shot down.

Zheng Changlin and Commander Jiang's clenched fists trembled slightly, their eyes shining!

They are all too aware of the importance of this missile to national security.

With this anti-aircraft missile and radar, the mainland will become a no-go zone for Kuomintang reactionary bombers.

The predicament of being constantly attacked without being able to effectively counterbalance the situation will never happen again!

Their eyes were red, and they both wanted to pack the leftovers and take them with them.

However, both of them knew in their hearts that it was impossible to eat it all by themselves.

Beiping, as the future capital, is now preparing for the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China.

Air defense is of paramount importance.

Even if Commander Chiang was extremely envious, he dared not disregard the safety of the capital.

If he dared to intercept them all, his job as head of the air force would probably be over.

Although Zheng Changlin was concerned about Beiping, he also dared not ignore the safety of Shanghai.

According to the information brought back by Lin Wan, the Kuomintang reactionaries will launch a bombing campaign tomorrow.

Without strong anti-aircraft firepower, it would cause huge losses.

Moreover, to put it realistically, he is the director of Bureau 306 and the vice mayor of Shanghai.

This is his foundation; how could he just stand by and watch it be destroyed?

So the two reached an agreement to split the profits equally.

We'll arrange for someone to send it to the train station tonight.

Unfortunately, the base is still under construction. Even with a large number of engineering troops deployed, it will still take some time to build a connecting railway.

Therefore, he had no choice but to take the atomic bomb data and rush back to Beiping by transport plane.

Other weapons and equipment were transported to Beiping by rail.

When Commander Jiang got the anti-aircraft weapons he wanted, he was so excited that he couldn't stop smiling.

He patted the Type 74 37mm twin-barreled anti-aircraft gun and grinned smugly, "Watch me turn the Kuomintang fighter planes into sieves!"

Chen Huai'an smiled and shook his head: "Wrong, this twin-barreled anti-aircraft gun isn't used like that."

Commander Jiang blinked and earnestly inquired, "Then how do I use it?"

A cold glint flashed in Chen Huai'an's narrowed eyes, and he said in an icy voice, "Lay it flat!"
