    The Uralsk Airport in Kazakhstan has been requisitioned as a military airport after Kazakhstan announced that it would join the Twelve-Nation Allied Forces in the crusade against Makashev's Soviet army. All civil aviation flights had to be diverted to a nearby facility far away.  It's a complete small airport.

    The straight-line distance between this airport and Moscow is about 106 kilometers. The combat radius of almost all pLAR fighters is greater than this number. Fighters taking off from here can perform air superiority missions and are also convenient for carrying out strike missions.  This airport originally had only one runway. Later, Qi Yiming was stunned and asked the Red Alert Engineering Corps to open a four-kilometer-long runway here, which greatly increased the airport's take-off and landing capabilities, making it a prime location for this confrontation.  An important node in the Russian war.  In order to protect this place, Qi Yiming also deployed three sets of air defense systems around the airport, specifically to prevent the Soviet Union from attacking this place. After all, this place is too close to the Soviet Union.

    There is not a single Kazakhstani fighter plane among the aircraft deployed here. Instead, they are all Chinese Air Force fighter planes.  There is no need for aircraft with such a long range and combat radius as bombers to be deployed in such a forward place. Usually frontline attack aircraft and fighter jets are stationed here.  The Air Force dropped an entire strike division here in one go, with a total of nearly eighty strong land-based versions.

    This part of the Qiang was the earliest batch, that is, the batch before it was modified to meet the needs of the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. At that time, about two hundred aircraft were equipped with the Air Force. Later, both Qiang-B and Qiang-B versions came out.  The Air Force has also considered whether to equip some new models that are capable of stealth penetration and strike, but there are still some discussions within the Air Force.

    Supporters believe that the Air Force should adopt a more diversified strike model route. The multi-purpose and out-of-theater attacks it implemented in its early years have been proven. Now it should also adopt a stealth penetration route. After all, this is also the future fighter aircraft.  development trend.  Moreover, the strong B navy has been developed and has B tons of built-in weapons. Although the combat radius is slightly smaller, it can be used if deployed on the front line.

    But there are also many opponents, and it cannot be ruled out that there are some service-oriented prejudices among them. The strong B has been branded as the navy, and the Air Force's use of it again seems to be quite unfair.  However, I dare not say this openly. The Central Military Commission is cracking down on the trend of military bias.  The main objection that can be put forward is that the combat radius is indeed a bit short for the Air Force. In particular, the Air Force rarely has access to its own frontline bases in operations. It must have an aircraft with a larger range. Furthermore, this aircraft basically has no  With the ability to protect itself, attack aircraft can fight with ease, but the B16 and Nh2 have basically no chance of winning in air combat.  Furthermore, the advanced and complex design makes the Strong B have a relatively high failure rate, which is also a headache for the Navy.

    Some people pointed out with a high level of foresight that in the future development of Air Force aircraft, the position of attack aircraft will only become smaller and smaller. The Air Force's multi-purpose path is absolutely correct. The Air Force cannot specialize in stealth penetration attack capabilities just because it needs them.  For a fleet of stealth attack aircraft, the Navy has to do this, but the Air Force is not restricted by naval requirements such as shipboard.

    So, the Air Force internally sorted out its needs again - stealth, large bomb load, excellent ground attack capabilities, considerable air combat capabilities, and strong reliability.

    The Air Force has a J-ll project, but the magazine of this stealth fighter with excellent transonic maneuverability has been a tragedy from the time it was designed. After the new design, there is an extra pair of side magazines that can hold two combat bombs, but  The main magazine can still basically only hold six medium-range bombs. Even if it is equipped with anti-ground weapons, they are basically small-diameter bombs.

    At this time, Qi Yiming clapped his hands and remembered a model that was originally planned to be installed, but he didn't know when he had left it behind - the real fifth-generation aircraft of the Republic Air Force, the J-20 Veyron.

    On the surface, the only fifth-generation stealth fighter known to the outside world today is the J-ll Black Hawk. But in fact, after unlocking the stealth technology, Qi Yiming's Red Alert Base has been able to produce another J-L fighter that was truly designed and developed by the Chinese.  20 already.  Before he traveled through time, the J-20 had not yet been fully developed, especially the soft board of the engine, which was basically the aircraft waiting for the engine. The original designer's plan was to either get the Russian L17B to use first, or to get lucky with his own -15.  It was done at once. Anyway, no matter what, if the thrust-to-weight ratio does not exceed 10 and the maximum thrust exceeds 6UkNR, it will be useless no matter how well designed the J-20 is.

    This is a sighing thing. Like most military fans, Qi Yiming couldn't breathe out when he saw the PLA's heart disease in almost all fields.  Before he came to 192, the 156-horsepower diesel engine for tanks was available, and the gas turbine that could drive a 10,000-ton large-scale drive or cruiser was available. However, the aerospace engine that could support the wings of the Dragon had not yet broken through.  Qi Yiming is confident that in the future when the economic situation improves and there are more and more talents, aviation engines that can compete with the world's first-class standards will inevitably be born in China.  At that time, it will be the time when the Veyron roars through the sky and drives like lightning.

    After time travel, the strong industrial manufacturing capabilities of the Red Alert Base enabled the -10 series to be equipped with the main domestic fighters within 30 years of its production. Almost the Chinese Air Force won from the beginning.??Western countries.  While the B15 and B16 were still using engines with a thrust-to-weight ratio and an afterburning thrust of over 20, the Raptors and Shadow Leopards were already using -10 engines with a thrust-to-weight ratio and a maximum thrust of 132.  After the base was upgraded to the - level, this advantage became even more obvious. The thrust-to-weight ratio of the -10G exceeded that and the maximum thrust reached 15. Not only these two indicators, the life of the engine is by no means the one or two thousand hours of the old Soviet system.  The level of replacement is quite easy, and the overhaul interval is also longer than similar products in the West.

    In fact, this level of engine can be installed on fifth-generation aircraft without too many problems. The super patrol capability may be poor, but basically other functions will not be seriously affected.

    In fact, the engine of the fifth-generation Chinese stealth fighter is already the next-generation product -15.  The basic data are: the intermediate thrust is 20 kN, the maximum afterburning thrust is 186 kN, the bypass ratio is 02, and the thrust-to-weight ratio is 10.6. From a horizontal perspective, it is roughly between the PI19 and PI3 of the American Pratt & Whitney.

    This is not the highest level that the Red Alert base can produce. There are engine bases with a thrust weight ratio of level 2. However, manufacturing costs and some other factors prevent the use of stronger engines in mass production models.

    With a powerful engine, the powerful performance of the J-20 is guaranteed.  Moreover, there is a huge difference between this fighter jet with a captain length of 22 meters and the Black Hawk fighter jet that specializes in air combat, that is, this fighter jet has a huge magazine.  Because the J-20 is too large, some Western observers even believe that the J-20 should be a fighter-bomber.

    If the Air Force wants stealth penetration and combat capability, then only the J-20 is suitable.  After actually inspecting the J-20, the Air Force believes that it can fully meet their needs. However, the Air Force is still not sure about the amount of equipment.  Nowadays, the Air Force basically doesn¡¯t make anything from Qi Yiming. It just places serious orders to the factory.

    Although the technology of the J-20 is a bit advanced, with the support of red alert engineers and advanced equipment, Chengdu Aircraft can basically produce it, and after a period of testing, it can generally enter large-scale mass production.  The main export fighter of Chengdu Aircraft is the Fl. It is said that there are more than 2,000 J-10 Raptors from A to B in two generations. What Chengfei Air Force provides to the Air Force is not even a fraction, mainly from Qi Yiming.  .  Chengfei is just creating feelings.

    If the Air Force is willing to place a large order for the J-20, it will be good news for Chengdu Aircraft. This large order can support Chengdu Aircraft¡¯s continued progress.  However, troubles also exist. The price of the J-10 provided by Chengdu Air Force to the Air Force fluctuates between 360,000 and 360,000. After calculating the cost, if the Air Force places an order for 100 J-20s, the purchase price will be as high as 2  100 million yuan, which is more expensive than the Black Hawk.  Maybe 200 million BNH doesn't sound high, but the purchasing power of RMB is quite strong at this time, and this is the honest price quoted to one's own people.

    The Air Force's annual equipment procurement expenses are now just over 2 billion. It has previously approved a long-term plan to purchase 20 Black Hawks in 10 years, which requires 200 million to be spent on Shenghua every year. In addition, there are miscellaneous purchases of training aircraft, transport aircraft, and special aircraft.  aircraft and the like, coupled with the 2 billion budget to buy the J-20, the Air Force is somewhat under pressure.  Fortunately, economic development and military spending have been rising, so we are not very worried.

    The Air Force finally compiled a six-year budget for 100 J-20s. The first one will be delivered by the end of the year, and all will be delivered by 1997. To be honest, it is not a very urgent project, and the full flight production capacity has not been used.

    However, after getting involved in the Russian Civil War, the Air Force remembered that Qi Yiming had secretly installed a lot of J-20s for itself, so it simply borrowed a J-20 aviation group from Qi Yiming, a total of fighter jets, and put them into use in Uralsk to see the effect.  How to determine whether to continue purchasing more in the future.

    These J-20s are all flown by Red Alert pilots. In fact, they are not much different from PLA's own pilots, because there are a large number of Red Alert pilots sent by Qi Yiming within PLA. They all train together and perform missions together, and their styles are similar.  .

    The J-20, which has an ultra-long combat radius of 26 kilometers, is mainly responsible for attack missions. However, even if it fights Soviet fighter planes, they are definitely not an easy enemy to deal with.  After Operation Thunder Strike began, the J-20 was quickly put into use, carrying guided bombs and continuously breaking into enemy lines to attack important enemy facilities.  Their stealth performance was fully demonstrated in this mission. The Soviet Union was unable to capture the traces of these stealth fighters. Only when some of their arsenals or missile sites were destroyed did they realize that they had been attacked by the Chinese.  What kind of air strikes did the Chinese use to attack them? Even after the war, some Russians were confused.
