    "Comac is so rich." Tang Changhu sighed.

    As Yuanjia has established a firm foothold at the top of the industrial chain, some of Liang Yuan's interesting impacts on the world have begun to become increasingly apparent. For example, the term "rich" has completely defeated the big money, and has successfully become a synonym for rich people.

    In Huanchang, which is at the forefront of fashion in the imperial capital, the style lords in Beijing movies have also been replaced by tycoons. When blowing water in the old capital, one sip of a tycoon makes bragging sound like some very energetic people.  Social organizations are dividing turf.

    "Professor, where did this COMAC come from?"

    Speaking of which, Tang Changhu and COMAC had no connection. When Liang Yuan crossed over, Tang Changhu was preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination. Before Liang Yuan smuggled in, Tang Changhu worked with the MPC75 project for a period of time and integrated the MPC75 project team with Zhou Yuanhang.  At that time, Tang Changhu, who had followed the project, also entered Zhou Yuanhang's field of vision.

    However, since Tang Changhu had left the team, the job invitation given by Zhou Yuanhang was in Shencheng. However, COMAC had not yet been established at that time. Zhou Yuanhang issued the invitation in the name of the domestic support team of the MPC75 project.

    After Tang Changhu received the job invitation, he hesitated for a while. If it was to work abroad, Tang Changhu decisively changed his job. The project support team in Shencheng only considered the possibility of working abroad, and considered a choice between the possibility of working abroad and taking the postgraduate entrance examination.  Months later, Tang Changhu chose to further his studies and COMAC missed it.

    " If Tang Changhu had chosen to change jobs at that time, the Navy's Bao Ye would have to change his position as chief engineer in the future. Of course, whether Bao Ye will change his position in this life depends on whether Liang Tuhao has any big plans.

    The postgraduate entrance examination was basically ignored. Even preparing for and taking the exam plus going to Beijing to study, Tang Changhu perfectly missed the rise of COMAC. This time Tang Changhu returned to the factory during the summer vacation and was attracted by COMAC.  His head was filled with so much fame that he felt as if he had left the aviation field for twenty years instead of two.

    "COMAC is quite legendary. I heard that it is a company owned by the big boss of Hong Kong Island. The big boss of Hong Kong Island is an invisible rich man and is richer than the kind who often appear on TV. However, this big boss of Hong Kong Island suddenly entered the aviation industry.  The field is related to a female student of Academician Wu Zhonghua~"

    Rumors about Li Yuanling¡¯s life experience have spanned thousands of kilometers and are thriving on the Loess Plateau.

    By the time Cheng Yijian and Tang Changhu finished talking about this outrageous rumor, Belfast at the end of the runway had already checked all the takeoff procedures, released the brakes and started taxiing.

    The huge propeller made a rumbling sound driven by the turboshaft engine, pushing Belfast's huge fuselage quickly across the runway in front of the two people. When the speedometer pointed to 180 kilometers per hour, Belfast's  The nose of the aircraft slowly raised, leaving the ground in a very smooth curve and starting to climb toward the sky.

    "The low-speed performance of this big guy is really good. Even an imported car can run faster than it."

    Staring at the retreating figure of Belfast, Tang Changhu¡¯s tone was very gentle. Aircraft designers can always discover beauty in some unknown places that the public cannot discover.

    "Xiaotang, let's go back to the meeting~!"

    Cheng Yijian interrupted Tang Changhu¡¯s feelings.

    The plane flew away, and the crowd at the airport began to disperse. On the way to the conference room, Tang Changhu heard many people talking about Belfast's excellent low-speed performance, and some people dragged the Yunba out to do it.  In contrast, there are occasionally a few people who get angry when they disagree with each other, and their voices are so loud that they can be heard from seven or eight meters away.

    Tang Changhu followed Cheng Yijian to the large conference room of the airport test flight building. When he entered the door, he found that not only the crowd came out to watch the fun, but also the entire XAC team, except for the second-in-command who came to Beijing for a meeting.

    But the leader had to pretend to be a leader anyway. Except for a few big guys from the technical department, the rest didn¡¯t go out to ¡°catch the temple fair¡± to have fun with the people. They just watched Belfast go away from the conference room window.

    After joining Cheng Yijian, several other deputy technical chief engineers responsible for instrumentation, body structure and other subsystems also came to the conference room one after another.

    Seeing that everyone was almost there, Qi Guangming, the director of Xifei Factory, knocked on the table to signal the meeting to start.

    "Boss, how's your experience up close?"

    Qi Guangming asked the technical bosses who had just come up from downstairs with a smile.

    "Too stupid, I negotiated with them to refuel for free. When I get to the destination, I will find a way to get back by myself. I won't be able to give me a ride on this flight."

    Du Cheng, who was in charge of avionics, complained first, and low laughter came from the conference room.

    "This flight is confidential. I just got the news not long ago. The crew will definitely not add people temporarily."

    Qi Guangming explained for Beifa¡¯s crew.

    Liang Yuan left the matter to Ning? Ning Lei will definitely not ignore security issues. The crew of this flight in Beifa only knew where to fly from and where to load things, and they didn¡¯t know the rest of the information.

    Xi Fei is used to keeping secret missions. Although everyone is curious about how big it will be and it will take a lot of effort to install it, they still let go of the topic in a tacit understanding.

    "I have been studying Belfast during the recent period, and I clearly feel that the gap has come from the horizon. I will not repeat the comparison between Belfast's performance and the Y-8 aircraft. I still have my original point of view. It is rare to encounter  This favorable situation can even be said to be the best time since the founding of the People's Republic of China. I suggest that the research and development of large aircraft be started immediately, the sooner the better, the faster the better."

    In front of all the management of the factory, Cheng Yijian expressed his opinion again.

    At this time, if this meeting can be held, it is self-evident that Xifei's own tendency is over. After the Republic's Fulcrum Battle is over, overseas military research institutions can be said to have suffered from the comparison of strategies and tactics to the application of technical weapons.  They are full and full, and they have obtained countless funds from their respective countries.

    As the party that launched the campaign, not to mention the rich experience gained by the Republic's military.

    It has almost completely subverted most of the tactical thinking since the founding of the Republic's army - this is the conclusion given by the senior command research department of the National Defense University.

    Leaving aside the sea and land components, the Fulcrum Battle had the greatest impact on the Republic Air Force. After all, air supremacy in modern conventional warfare is almost everything.

    In addition to advanced fighter jets, the important factor in exerting air superiority is the tanker plane, known as the combat power amplifier, which has completely conquered the Republic's military. Long legs are better than short legs. This has become an iron law of the Republic's Air Force.

    Not long ago, Mr. Map from the north came to the Republic to promote fighter jets. Faced with the temptation of the MiG-29, except for a group of melon-eating people who did not know the truth and watched and applauded, the really knowledgeable and knowledgeable bosses of the Republic who could really speak did not even bat an eyelid, but they participated.  Many people in the negotiation complained privately, but they still wanted to export the MiG¡¯s short legs to us~, tsk tsk~

    Liang Tuhao's famous saying "Big Long Legs" was too strong for some unknown reason and no one used it as a reference. "Short Short Legs" refers to the short range of the aircraft, but it was Ning Lei who imitated it. In terms of Ning Lei's influence in the Republic Air Force,  , blurting it out a few times is enough to create a trend.

    Although the Air Force of the Republic of China has moved on, it cannot throw away the thousands of short-legged aircraft it has equipped in the early years. The tanker aircraft as a combat power amplifier has suddenly become a new focus of the Air Force.

    The Yun-Ba tanker, which was hastily processed for the Fulcrum Battle, can only serve two F14 fighter jets at most, and the scheduled refueling location cannot exceed one-half of the F14's range. As a combat power amplifier, it can only be said to be slightly better than nothing.  Therefore, the Air Force naturally set its sights on large tankers. XAC, as the only factory in the Republic capable of developing large military aircraft, was influenced by the military and put the issue of large aircraft back on the agenda.

    In the 1990s, the Republic's rigid military needs began to change from north to south. The first target changed from the armor frenzy on the ground and the backfire storm in the air to a comprehensive aircraft carrier battle group on the ocean.

    The Republic¡¯s military, which has fought two battles in this dimension with F14 fighter jets, is more aware of the ubiquitous threats on the ocean. The F14 can patrol in the airspace 600 kilometers away from the aircraft carrier formation for two hours.  This is a very scary statistic. Regardless of combat, the J-5 and J-6 currently equipped in large quantities by the Republic cannot fly in the sky for more than an hour even if they are equipped with auxiliary fuel tanks. How can we fight this battle?

    Based on the range calculation on paper, the current Republic does not have any domestically produced fighter jets in active service that can break through the air defense circle of the aircraft carrier formation, which means that it can only be beaten and cannot fight back.

    In order to maintain air superiority over the strait under such extremely unfavorable circumstances, the Republic Air Force developed the well-known air force combat tactics of small batches, multiple batches, and saturated takeoffs throughout the 1990s, trying to use a steady stream of aircraft arriving at the scheduled battlefield.  , to maintain the Air Force¡¯s presence in the theater.

    At this time, the Republic Air Force, which was deeply aware of the performance of the F14 fighter jets, did not use the term "fight for air supremacy" at all. Instead, it used the term "existence" which was difficult to explain and seemed relatively harmless. In the internal discussion led by Ning Lei, the Republic simply relied on the existing air power.  It is unable to compete for air supremacy in the Strait battlefield, and can only treat itself as an away battle, using a steady stream of aircraft to interrupt the continuous destruction of its landing sites by the air wing on the opposite side of the Pacific.

    Even this tactic faces big problems. The number of frontline airports itself is limited, and their wartime integrity rate is even more worrying. The core of the Republic Air Force's planned tactics lies in the continuous supply. Once the frontline airport is bombed, it can only rely on internal airfields.  The fighter group taking off from Lu Zongshen Airport can maintain its presence over the strait for a shorter period of time and with a weaker force. Whether it can maintain its presence over the landing troops is open to question.

    ?The successful application of the Yun-8 tanker in the Fulcrum Battle opened a new door for the Republic Air Force. The Yun-8 tanker is a special task force and does not fundamentally help the Republic Air Force's current predicament, but large tankers are not.  Same.

    A large tanker can support 8 F14-level fighters for refueling and supply. If replaced by the large-scale J-5 and J-6 currently in service in the Republic, it can support 24. This means that even if ground airports are not considered, as long as 20 large tankers are needed,  It is enough for the Republic Air Force to invest 500 fighter jets in the Strait airspace, and the saturated capacity of supersonic fighter jets in the Strait airspace will remain at 500 aircraft.

    What's more, large tankers are airports that can run away. Their survivability and flexibility in tactical application are not comparable to fixed airports that can only be beaten on the spot. If the Republic does not have tankers, the Seventh Fleet's main air defense monitoring force  Just go to the west. If the Republic is equipped with large tankers, it can be said that there will be no safe place in the 360-degree airspace. If you want to maintain the original safety level, the fleet can only retreat, and the air power invested after the fleet retreats  The intensity will naturally decrease.

    Therefore, under the leadership of Ning Lei, the Air Force of the Republic defined the direction of improving its combat effectiveness as walking on two legs. One is to self-develop or introduce F14-level third-generation fighter jets, and the other is to develop large aircraft, whether strategic transport aircraft or  Large tankers can instantly amplify the combat effectiveness of the Republic's current equipment.

    The issue of fighter jets has little to do with XAC. The major manufacturers in the north, the southwest and even the south all have the ability to develop the next generation of fighter jets. However, for the large aircraft line, we can only rely on XAC.  .

    When Belfast didn't show up, although there was talk of establishing a large aircraft project within XAC, due to the difficulty of self-development, even if the Air Force had a need to establish a project, the call was not strong. Belfast's sudden change  Being born changed everything.
