"We have made the greatest efforts in stealth performance. Through the complex calculations carried out by our supercomputer, we mastered the electromagnetic reflection performance. The current appearance is the best solution." Simonov continued: "The entire fuselage does not have any plane that directly reflects backwards. We have also carefully processed the air inlets of the two engines. The air inlets of the two engines are also designed with S-shaped design and special shielding. The blades of the compressor inside will not be exposed directly. At the same time, the distance between the two engines is relatively long, so there can be more space on the abdomen between the two engines, which can accommodate at least six R-77 missiles and two R-73 missiles. The built-in weapon is a way to effectively reduce radar reflection waves. At the same time, the engine with far-distance intervals can be combined with vector control technology, even without the tail rudder, such as steering and rolling can be completed."

Simonov played slides one by one, conveying his design ideas to the senior decision-makers present, and Andrei kept nodding.

From the appearance, in addition to the engine layout, other aspects are very similar to the -22. This is the appearance determined by the Americans after hard exploration. Now, Sukhoi also adopts this appearance. Historically, Sukhoi has made a new generation of fighters based on the performance characteristics of the American-22 and combined with its own Su-27 fighter jets, which have excellent performance in all aspects.

And now, the T-50 in history has been born more than 20 years ago!

After Simonov introduced the project, the Yaklev Design Bureau showed off the plan he designed. This is a fighter plan that also uses a duck-style layout. From the designer's perspective, he is full of confidence in this fighter. However, from the audience present, this fighter is used to charge the numbers.

The Yaklev Design Bureau designed a series of excellent combat aircraft during World War II. However, when the fighter entered the jet era, the Yaklev Design Bureau was out of date and almost no aircraft were put into service. Although it took hard work to develop the Jakick-36m fighter with vertical take-off and landing, the series of problems that arise after this fighter was equipped with the navy made this fighter a flash in the pan and quickly retired.

For the Yaklev Design Bureau, the one they can take on now is the Jaklev-44 early warning aircraft. This early warning aircraft project has received high attention from superiors and is already in the final test flight stage. However, this early warning aircraft is not large after all. If you want to revive the Yaklev Design Bureau, you must win the contract for the next generation of fighter jets!

Unfortunately, when the plan was taken out, the chief designer did not see how interested everyone was. Sure enough, the Yaklev Design Bureau was just a foil this time!

To be fair, the Jaklev Design Bureau's plan is not out of date. The duck-style layout is based on the results of the Central Fluid Academy. At the same time, the design also refers to the results of stealth, such as the vertical tail wing behind it, which is inclined.

However, the research and development capabilities of the Yaklev Design Bureau are doubtful. After all, they have never even developed the fourth-generation aircraft (international standard third-generation aircraft). The only Yaklev 36m made is not practical, so the Yaklev Design Bureau is actually a so-called role. Even if their plan is outstanding, it will be difficult to win the bid.

Now, after the Yaklev Design Bureau introduced the advantages and disadvantages of these plans, Andre began to comment on the front line personnel from the National Air Defense Force. Andrei has rich experience and a skilled look.

"Mikoyan Design Bureau's project can only be said to be partial stealth. I have not seen the design of the built-in bomb bay. It means that it is mainly plug-ins. This method will greatly increase the flight resistance after full load and reduce the maximum flight speed. At the same time, the magic weapon of stealth is betting on plasma stealth technology. I personally think the risk is very high." Andre said: "The Sukhoi Design Bureau's plan better takes into account both stealth and maneuverability. From the ontology, you can see the shadow of the Su-27. Such a technical difficulty should be relatively small. If we invest money now and vigorously develop this project, can the Sukhoi Design Bureau guarantee that it can build a prototype within five years?"

Within five years! Andre gave very short time. After all, stealth is still a brand new concept for the Soviet Union. The next generation of fighter jets is not only a breakthrough in stealth, but also a comprehensive range of high-thrust turbofan engines, advanced integrated electronic systems, and super maneuverability. These are not effective in a short period of time.

For example, if the Su-27 starts from the project establishment, it has been in 1969. Even if it enters the detailed research and development stage in 1976, it will take five or six years to complete the finalization of the Su-27. The new generation of fighter jets took five years to build prototypes. After three years of test flights, they entered the army in the early 1990s. This was a very fast progress.

When Andrei asked this, Simonov answered with confidence: "We can issue a military order."

At the beginning, because the T-10 project did not achieve its expected goal, Simonov opposed the opposition and almost pushed the entire plan back, which led to a new generation of heavy air combat fighter jets, which completely suppressed the American-15 in terms of performance. Now, when he heard Andrei's question, Simonov was full of confidence. In the competition of the fourth generation aircraft, Mikoyan Design Bureau won the contract for the light fighter jet, and the Sukhoi Design Bureau built a heavy fighter jet. In this game, even the Sukhoi Design Bureau won!

Among the next generation of fighter jets, the Sukhoi Design Bureau also wants to win! Now, General Andrei's tone is obviously very supportive of the Sukhoi Design Bureau. At this time, Simonov even made a promise.

Work overtime, you must complete it!

At this moment, a voice beside him said, "General Andre, is stealth performance really that important?"

Andrei looked over and said that he was the dean of the 30th Central Academy of Sciences under the Soviet Ministry of Defense. They were mainly responsible for formulating the overall performance requirements of future fighter jets, that is, they determined the various performance indicators of the new generation of fighter jets.

The dean was suspicious about Andre's tireless pursuit of stealth performance. (To be continued.)
