In fact, both the United States and the Soviet Union have developed rapidly in recent years, and this is an era of rapid technological growth. ◎,

Taking aviation technology as an example, not only the F108 and F111 are about to be tested, but even the Valkyrie has started manufacturing the first test flight model, and the first Blackbird is also starting to manufacture. The C141 has entered the test flight in large transport aircraft and is estimated to be delivered in one year at most. The A6 attack aircraft that matches Satan's combat was just officially put into service not long ago. The other two early warning aircraft, e2 and e3, are progressing smoothly. Earlier this year, even the P3 anti-submarine aircraft were delivered.

However, there has been little progress in civilian passenger planes.

Boeing is in a slump. The 707 and 727 series can only be maintained under the protection policy of the US government and can only rely on the military to make a living. Douglas is ambitious and bet on the three-mover DC10 in the same bleak situation as the DC8 and DC9. Moreover, according to the commercial information obtained by Yang Feng, because he can't beat Airbus alone, many American aviation giants, including Boeing and Douglas, are planning to form an alliance to fight against this giant. Boeing has suffered heavy losses due to the nuclear bomb and has not yet recovered its vitality, so it is very likely that this alliance will focus on Douglas and Lockheed.

The latter is also developing the l1011 Samsung passenger plane, but this is a competition with the DC10. When the Airbus army is in a dilemma, doing so is tantamount to self-destruction, but if it is cooperation, it will be different. The one they plan to defeat Airbus should be a supersonic passenger plane.

In terms of helicopters, most of the famous aircraft models in later generations have appeared. At present, the most important ones in the United States are the ch53 and Cheyenne. When the latter cannot be considered a helicopter, it is a rotorcraft.

However, this aircraft is obviously a pitfall. Although Lockheed is progressing smoothly, the high maintenance costs inevitably brought by the expensive price and complex structure have caused the Pentagon to have started to shake. It is obvious that even if this epoch-making fighter jet is developed, it is estimated that no one except the United States will buy it. Moreover, even the United States cannot be equipped in large quantities like a cobra like a locust in the Ming army, let alone equipped almost all combat brigades. After all, Yang Feng's cobra is too cheap.

However, the Bell Cobra, which was put on the shelf by Eisenhower for his face, is now attracting the attention of the Pentagon again.

After all, they are really short of money now.

To be tall or tolerate ridicule and make a cheap low-end product is becoming a multiple-choice question for Kennedy and McNamara.

As for the development of Hetuzi, the development of the place is also eye-catching. Not to mention that the MiG 21 alone makes the US military miserable, not to mention that he has MiG and MiG 25, and the newly-sented 22, the ambitious start of the early stage, the Sukhoi is undergoing a swept-back wing Su17, and the Jacques 36 that Yakfulev is developing...

Well, this is not the vertical take-off and landing technology verification machine. In fact, except for the same name, the two have nothing in common.

This Jacques 36 is the successor of the Jacques 25 carrier-based aircraft, and it is also a high-end swept-back wing. Even Yang Feng doesn't know what he finally created. After all, this is something that has never been in history. It is estimated that with the technical level of the Soviets, it should not be worse than the MiG, because it is a more important carrier-based aircraft, and it is likely to surpass the MiG.

In fact, the next generation of carrier-based aircraft of the United States and the Soviet Union have been confirmed to be swept wings.

In terms of transport aircraft, the Antonov has already tested the flight, and it is estimated that the next step is to start developing the Il 76. The Tu 126 early warning aircraft has also begun to test flight, and there is even a carrier-based early warning aircraft developed in Antonov. Although these are slightly inferior to Ming, American and European, they are still following closely behind.

In terms of helicopters, Mi 8 is about to be put into service, and the Card 25 is being developed, and even the Mi 24 project is being launched ahead of schedule. It should be said that in this field, the technical gap between the Soviet Union and the West is the smallest, especially the Card 25 is even more advanced.

Therefore, the technological development of the Ming Dynasty is indeed eye-catching, but it definitely does not despair the pursuers. This is great. If the gap is too wide, people will not be able to play with you. If you want to give others hope, you should give others confidence to chase them, and you will not leave any room for words. In despair, no one can guarantee that they will do anything that will lose their minds. Since conventional weapons cannot be played with you, they will certainly turn their hopes to nuclear bombs. Yang Feng does not want to face his fighter jets in the future, with the Falcon Air-Air missiles with nuclear warheads on the other side.

This thing is quite bad. It would be better to expect it to hit a fighter than to expect the pig to climb a tree, but if it brings a nuclear warhead of hundreds of tons, it would probably be gone any defects.

If the United States and the Soviet Union were really forced to completely nuclear bombs to deal with themselves, then it would be difficult for Chief Yang to have any fun. After all, his ideal is to hold the beauty with her left hand and hold a wine glass with her right hand, and die in decay and depravity, rather than standing on the wasteland and leading a bunch of strange-shaped nuclear radiation descendants, singing the hymn of the end of the world together.

However, Yang Feng still has an urgent problem to be solved. What is his next generation of carrier-based aircraft used? His land-based fighter aircraft has been confirmed to be Eagle and Sister Pomegranate, but the carrier-based aircraft has not been confirmed yet.

"What kind of thing do you want? Change-swept wings? Ordinary wings? Heavy? Medium? Special air combat aircraft? Multifunctional?"

Yang Feng asked his Navy Chief of Staff Wu Zurong.

"It has to change the swept wing, it has to change the swept wing."

The latter said firmly, and it was obvious that he was also fashionable.

"But the swept wing will be very large, even larger than the ghosts. In this way, our three aircraft carriers, the Yingtian and Shuntian, will be difficult to carry too much, even if it is undergoing a transformation, after all, the tonnage is there, especially the Kunlun, which has no meaning in even the transformation. It is estimated that the Fengtian-class aircraft carrier can be used. In addition, the maintenance cost of swept wing is quite high, so if you choose to change swept wing, you will spend more money. I am not going to put any pressure on Congress on this matter, so you must solve the problem of those members of Congress yourself. If they agree, then we will change swept wings. If they disagree, then we will do something else. In short, this matter will be decided by Congress."

Yang Feng said.

He happened to take this opportunity to get the Ming Dynasty's weapons procurement back on track. Before, he basically said whatever he said was all right, but this obviously didn't work. He wanted a normal country, not a person who decided everything by slapping his head. If Wu Zurong could handle Congress, then build a big cat for them, and it was directly a big cat D level. Anyway, his engine performance was enough to meet the needs of a super cat silent cat in the future. If Wu Zurong couldn't handle Congress but could still obtain heavy aircraft projects, then he would do the J-15. If Congress wanted bargains and medium-sized aircraft, he could only play with bugs, and directly based on the super bugs with extended edge strips as the blueprint, which could basically meet the needs of air combat.

Anyway, he does not have much pressure in this regard. The limit that the Americans can achieve in the next twenty years is the Immortal Bird. As for whether the F111 can be developed into a carrier-based aircraft, it is still difficult to say. Although the Americans have established projects as a common project between the two armies, the problem is that they have no catapults that can eject this thing so far.

This thing is too heavy, and the normal take-off weight reaches the limit of the catapult. Moreover, even the Nimitz-class can't carry a few. The big cat is already big enough, and it is actually three meters longer than the big cat. Such a giant is obviously not suitable for an aircraft carrier. After all, the hangar is only a little area, so whether the Americans will continue to develop this thing is still an unknown, and it is not impossible to dismount in the middle.

As for the Immortals...

It is just a missile designed to attack bombers. Although the paper data is amazing, it is almost impossible to shoot down third-generation aircraft with maneuverability over hundreds of kilometers. It is just bullying Xiaosa's high-altitude high-speed fighter jets during the Iran-Iraq War, and it is mainly because the latter's radar alarm is too bad and unprepared, and it will be almost useless when the Gulf War is in progress.

Therefore, the threat this missile can be ignored. No matter what he built a big cat, a flying shark or a bug, it will not be truly threatened by the immortal bird. However, after his carrier-based aircraft is hung with the Aim120, it can maintain a large enough advantage for any fighter in the next twenty years.

Even if it is a MiG 25 or a light sword.

Even the Sparrow M can shoot down the Fox Fox, let alone the Aim120. As for the fighter Light Sword, the performance of this fighter is not necessarily stronger than that of the Fox Fox, and may even be worse. After all, it is much bigger than that of the Fox Fox.

In other words, no matter what he created, he will be invincible within twenty years.

As for twenty years later, he himself doesn't know how far he should evolve. Maybe even the fourth-generation aircraft will be on the ship. Of course, he will definitely not be able to make fat electricity, but the f22 can also be transformed into a carrier-based version. In short, there is not much pressure to choose his carrier-based aircraft at this stage.

In this way, he threw the choice of the new generation of carrier-based aircraft to the Congress. The rest depends on how the Ministry of Defense and the Navy generals fooled the members of the Congress. Now those members are becoming increasingly difficult to talk to. If everyone used to think of playing with him to make him happy, this country was completely his toy, but as the Ming Dynasty became stronger and stronger, those members have truly regarded this as their own country and are no longer his house. They have their own ideas on some things, and the veto of his proposals also happens from time to time.

Of course, this is a good thing, which means that the Ming Empire has been truly solid.
