I, the super rich crown prince, will build the richest country

With the purchase of 60 twin-engine 35 stealth fighters from the system, plus the previous purchase of 20 F-35A fighters from the United States, the number of stealth fighters has exceeded 80, becoming the second largest after the United States.

However, the purchase of 60 from the system still requires the improvement of electronic equipment and the replacement of the new Han system.

This is the only way to cooperate with other fighters in war.

Two days later, Xiao Yunhai held a symposium on military enterprises in the palace.

The invited guests were all business leaders of Xiao Yunhai's companies, such as Xia Qiming of Xinghai Aircraft Manufacturing Company.

Zhou Haiyang, the head of Xinghai Shipbuilding Company, that is, Wanghai Shipyard.

There are also Yang Rui of Xinghai Weapon Manufacturing Company, Liu Haiquan, CEO of Yufeng Aviation Industry Company, and Leihuo Company, and other CEOs of military enterprises.

Looking at the people sitting in the conference room, Xiao Yunhai smiled slightly and said in a gentle tone: "Don't be nervous, relax the atmosphere, let's talk about the situation of the military industry today, so as to further promote the development of military enterprises."

Under Xiao Yunhai's gentle tone, everyone's faces relaxed a lot, and the atmosphere was not as serious as before.

"Old Xia, Chief Engineer Xia!"

"Let's start with you first."

"How is the progress of the Zero Fighter Project? When can it enter the mass production stage?"

Xiao Yunhai looked at the first person on his left, that is, Xia Qiming.

Hearing Xiao Yunhai call his name, Xia Qiming was not surprised. He had been with Xiao Yunhai for many years, and it was inevitable that he could guess a little about Xiao Yunhai's thoughts.

"Your Highness, the Zero Project is already debugging the production equipment. Once the adjustment is completed, it can be put into production. It is expected to be officially arranged for production in April this year."

"Oh? How about the production capacity? Can you guarantee an annual output of 120 aircraft?"

Xinghai Aircraft Manufacturing Company, the aircraft production line is not a traditional production line, but a large number of intelligent equipment are used.

Then the final assembly is carried out through the pulsating production line.

The degree of industrialization of parts production is extremely high.

"Depending on the demand, according to the existing production line, the annual production capacity of 140 stealth fighters is no problem."

Hearing that the annual output of 140 stealth fighters can be achieved, Xiao Yunhai was very satisfied.

This number is higher than he expected.

"What about Baihe?"

"Baihe needs to increase production efforts. This year, the Air Force will place at least 150 orders with you."

Xiao Yunhai said.

This single-engine, cheap fighter is very suitable for increasing the scale of the Air Force fighters.

Even if they are exported, single-engine fighters will be very popular in the future.

The reason is that they are cheap.

In a few years, a twin-engine heavy fighter will cost two or three hundred million US dollars. How many countries can afford it?

By then, most countries will choose relatively good and cheap single-engine fighters.

Buy them to support the scene.

Whether it is combat radius, avionics system, or aircraft engine at the same level,All of them are excellent.

So even if you don't use it in the future and want to eliminate it, there will be no worries about not having buyers.

In addition, the White Crane fighter has also been upgraded to block 2, further using carbon fiber to reduce weight, and further adjusting the air intake and appearance.

The benefit is that the radar reflection surface is reduced a lot.

Secondly, the combat radius has increased by nearly 100 kilometers.

The current combat radius can reach 1,200 kilometers.

It has reached the level of F16.

The difference from F16 is the bomb load.

But the avionics level, especially the radar, surpasses the latest model of F16, F16V.

Of course, this is the self-use version.

For export, it is still the block 1 version.

I heard that the Air Force wants to order 150 White Crane fighters.

Xia Qiming's eyes lit up. This is not a small business.

Based on the calculation of 50 million US dollars per aircraft, it is an order of 7.5 billion US dollars.

This order alone is enough for their aircraft manufacturing company to lie down comfortably for two years.

What's more, the "Zero" stealth fighter will be mass-produced soon.

The orders will be too much to take by then.

You know, the US F35 stealth fighter has received orders for as many as 300-400 aircraft.

And this is only approved by Congress for sale.

If the sale is liberalized, let alone 300-400 aircraft, there will be 1,000 aircraft.

For example, those countries in the Middle East, Siam, Babayang, and White Elephant in Asia are waving money, but they will not sell.

So, once Xinghai Aircraft Manufacturing Company launches a stealth fighter, even if it is sold for 200 million US dollars per aircraft, there will be people rushing to buy it.

Of course, what we are talking about here are those countries that cannot buy F35 fighters from the Americans.

For example, the Middle East Sand Camel, and African Pharaoh, Aariya and other countries.

After talking about the fighters, Xiao Yunhai asked about the progress of imitating the Apache attack helicopter and the CH-47E heavy transport helicopter.

The reason for imitating these three helicopters.

The main reason is that in the war, it has been tested that the four helicopters currently developed by Xinhan have not been very practical.

Based on the Bell 360 prototype, the "Zhongming Bird" reconnaissance helicopter is improved and produced, and the Bifang tilt-rotor helicopter is produced based on the "V-280".

First, the cost is too high.

Second, the practicality is greatly reduced. (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

For example, the Chongming Bird is a light reconnaissance helicopter, and its firepower cannot match that of the Apache, and can only match the AH-1 attack helicopter.

The Bifang helicopter is too wide.

Not to mention, the maximum take-off weight is only 14.

It is far from the standard for heavy helicopter take-off weight.

The CH-47E heavy transport helicopter has a maximum take-off weight of 24.49 tons, almostDoubled.

It can directly hoist light armored vehicles or wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, which are relatively light equipment.

Even if we don't start from the equipment hoisting, just from the perspective of manning, a CH-47E can carry 44 soldiers.

And the "Bifang" tilt-rotor helicopter can only carry 14 fully armed combat soldiers.

In the case of urgent need to deploy troops, the importance of the CH-47E transport helicopter is reflected.

Therefore, in order to further enhance the long-distance deployment of troops and combat weapons, let Xia Qiming arrange to copy these two helicopters.

"CH-47E still has parts and components that do not meet the requirements, and it is still being improved."

"Apache has no major problems, including parts and materials, which have been overcome. A prototype has been built, but there are still some problems that need to be further optimized to increase the mounting capacity."

Xiao Yunhai was very happy to hear that the Apache prototype had been produced.

In this way, with the "Zhongming Bird" reconnaissance armed helicopter, it is possible to achieve a combination of light and heavy helicopters, and use different helicopters according to different combat needs.

This means that there is no need to buy the American Apache E helicopter. []

"CH-47E needs to speed up the development progress. Our Xinhan still has a great demand for heavy helicopters." Xiao Yunhai said.

". Understood, we will speed up the process here."

"Hmm~~" Xiao Yunhai nodded.

He did not doubt the research and development capabilities of Xia Qiming and other leading military researchers.

There are technical drawings and real machines that can be disassembled. If you can't do this, what kind of experts are you?

The most satisfying self-developed helicopter for the military at present is the "Lark" general-purpose helicopter, which looks a bit like a Black Hawk.

It is flexible and can carry 12 combat personnel.

It can also carry 8 Agni anti-tank missiles or two multiple rocket launchers.

Very suitable for special tactical operations.

Currently, this helicopter has been installed in the special forces and air assault brigades of the three armed forces of the navy, army and air force.

Due to its low price, 42 helicopters have been installed in one year.

There are still 56 orders in production.

An additional 100 orders will be added this year.

One helicopter costs $5 million, which is much cheaper than the Black Hawk and is suitable for large-scale installation.

Then we talked about the progress of air-to-air missiles, radars and other projects.

Especially the early warning aircraft project.

It is learned that it has been developed on the platform based on the C-130J Hercules transport aircraft and has made certain progress.

Xiao Yunhai said that he would promote the early warning aircraft project as soon as possible.

After all, this is the eye.

Only with eyes can we win in air combat and electronic confrontation.

Especially (Qianma Zhao) is fighting against a big country.

Without a powerful early warning aircraft, it is completely outclassed.

Currently, Xinhan is only equipped with 5 US E-2D AWACS.

They were ripped off!

US$380 million for one.

Five aircraft are enough to cover Kalimantan Island.

Before, the military budget was insufficient and the focus was on economic development. Now that Sumatra Island has been taken, the size of the AWACS fleet must be increased.

In addition, the drone project is also being carried out in an orderly manner, with research and development in the direction of honeycombs and unmanned fighters.

Then, Xiao Yunhai talked to Yang Rui and others about the army's unmanned combat cabinet.

The future is the era of unmanned robot combat.

In fact, vigorously developing unmanned equipment is quite suitable for a country like Xinhan that has a relatively small population and is super rich.

And Xinhan has advantages in this area.

Whether it is AI or computing power chips, Xinhan can have what the Americans don't have, after all, there is a golden finger.

The only trouble is that people are needed to train large models.

In general, the development of unmanned equipment is beneficial to Shinhan.

It is also the main direction of Shinhan's future military development.

When a combined brigade is equipped with a large number of unmanned equipment, its combat strength may be comparable to that of an army in some ordinary countries.
