The take-off plane used to pick up and drop off the dignitaries was brought by Major Wen, a safe with a self-destruct device. 【】

Pei Chengyi's gaze was drawn to the past. The safe is designed to hold top-secret documents. In order to open it, in addition to the user's fingerprint that exactly matches the retina, it is necessary to enter the mouth password. If the password is entered incorrectly 3 times. Or if it is forcibly opened, the high-temperature self-destruct mechanism inside the safe will activate itself, burning all the documents and electronic devices contained in the moth. After being forcibly opened, the inside of the safe is small. The explosive device will activate immediately, killing people within a radius of two meters, in addition to destroying everything inside.

A dangerous guy.

Seeing Dongfang Wen entering the password on the pop-up keyboard, Pei Chengyi moved his ass slightly.

With a click, the top cover of the safe popped open. Pei Chengyi also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Recommending the Army"

"What's that?" Pei Chengyi glanced at the document that Dongfang Wen took out.

"The Chief of the General Staff asked me to hand it over to you." Dongfang Wen handed the document to Pei Chengyi, and then took out a handheld computer. "I also want to know what it is, it's just that I'm not level yet."

Pei Chengyi nodded, indicating that he understood what Dongfang Wen meant.

"Take your time, I'll make you a cup of coffee." Dongfang Wen left the cigarette and soon sent Pei Chengyi a cup of pure blue Jean. Coffee. "I'm right in front, you can call me anytime anything."

"No problem, I'll call you."

Dongfang smiled, left the cabin where Pei Chengyi was, and went to the front to chat with the crew.

Lighting a cigarette, Pei Chengyi put the handheld computer on the desktop and opened the first document.

There is no doubt that this is the overarching document for the reform of the republican affairs.

Although Pei Chengyi participated in the initial planning of military reform and formulated many specific implementation plans, he went to the National Defense University for further study. Pei Chengyi did not participate in military reform anymore, and rarely even bothered about military reform.

After reading the first document, Pei Chengyi showed a relieved smile.

Military reform has not deviated from the course originally set. Without Pei Chengyi's participation, Xiang Linghui still adhered to the overall reform policy formulated by Pei Chengyi.

Before closing the document, Pei Chengyi noticed the signature at the end of the payment:

Yuan Chenhao.

This name is very familiar, but Pei Chengyi can't remember this person.

It should be some senior staff officer of the General Staff.

Thinking of this, Pei Chengyi didn't think much about it and picked up the second document.

Military reform cannot be speculated out of thin air, and must have a corresponding theoretical and practical basis. There is no lack of theoretical basis for promoting this round of military reform. But the most important thing is the practical basis. The basis for the whole set of military reforms is the beginning of the year. The last battle of the Sino-Indian conflict. As the supreme commander of military operations, Pei Chengyi knew very well that the battle had little impact on the military thinking and military construction of the republic.

After the battle, all the combatants received special "condolences" from the CIA, and the officers and men of several test units and test flight units are still receiving special "care" from the CIA

"Brahma. The participants of the technical verification machine have been isolated from the outside world for several years, and not only have their contact with their families been supervised, but they have even spent several Spring Festivals in the army.

Pei Chengyi was no exception, after arriving in Pakistan. At any time, several agents of the Military Intelligence Agency, disguised as officers of the Republic in Pakistan, secretly protect the safety of Pei Chengyi, that is, his family, and report the situation to Li Cunxun, the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, every day. Such strict "supervision" has only one purpose, that is, to achieve absolute secrecy.

Soldiers, treacherous ways.

Only by doing a good job of secrecy can we paralyze the enemy. Lead the enemy down the wrong path.

As a participant in the whole process, Pei Chengyi knows very well whether a new round of military reform brought about by neural network computers, that is, the "unmanned era" has arrived.

It can be said that that battle somewhat disappointed Pei Chengyi.

When planning combat operations, Pei Chengyi was prepared with both hands. The "Brahma" technical verification machine is indeed very advanced, but no one dares to pack a ticket for a technical verification machine that has never been on the battlefield or even completed the basic test work, and Pei Chengyi does not dare to take it lightly.

When attacking the Indian strategic air defense command center, the numbered planer fighter specially modified "Goshawk" unmanned aircraft was also carried out by ground operators thousands of kilometers away. In other words, it was the unmanned fighters that were in service for the fast years that destroyed the Indian strategic air defense command center, and not the latest "Brahma" unmanned fighters.

It was not the "Brahma" that attacked the AWACS aircraft of the Indian Air Force. "Rather, it is subordinate to the Strategic Interception Force of the Air Force, saying that the small autonomous locks on to the Indian AWACS aircraft, although through ground remote control can be carried out by "Brahma." carried out the attack mission, but for the sake of insurance, Pei Chengyi still summoned the "Brahma" back, and let the small fighter that followed behind complete the attack mission instead of the "Brahma".

Both attacks turned out to be based on the same problem: intelligence.

At the beginning of the battle, there were multiple targets on the ground and in the air, and the Indian army had already prepared. Although "Brahma" showed a high degree of intelligence during technical testing, it was able to self-identify and attack in a relatively complex environment. However, in the actual combat environment, the intelligence of the "Brahma" still cannot meet the requirements of actual combat, that is, it cannot independently complete the attack task without the operation of the remote control personnel.

If it does not have the ability to attack autonomously, the combat capability of the "Brahma" is not much higher than that of the "Goshawk".

Since it cannot replace the previous generation of unmanned fighters, there is no need for large-scale equipment.

According to this result, the General Staff adjusted the development plan of the "Brahma": "In addition to manufacturing a few more verification planes and speeding up the progress of basic development, it did not use a large number of them. Large unmanned reconnaissance and attack planes, "Golden Eagle" tactical unmanned attack planes, and "Maoyan" tactical unmanned reconnaissance planes, and even a number of "Peng" high-altitude unmanned strategic reconnaissance planes in the unlimited navigation area have been procured in the name of "Brahma" and large unmanned aircraft using controllable fusion reactors as power sources.

Relatively speaking, several other weapons and equipment that were being opened performed much better than the "Brahma".

The "Painted Halberd" treble cruise missile developed by the Air Force performed very well, not only successfully completing the task of destroying India's strategic air defense command center, but also confirming its strong penetration defense.

The "crossbow" type variable ballistic missile jointly developed by the Ran, the land and the navy has also proved its value in actual combat, and the "ballistic-cruise" composite ballistic missile adopted by it can maximize the penetration of defenses

Force.

What is even more gratifying is that some other weapons and equipment that have been installed have also proved their value through actual combat.

The most outstanding performance was definitely the Army Aviation's tilt-rotary-wing armed attack aircraft. As a kind of "vertical take-off and landing aircraft" used to replace helicopter gunships, it can not only perform combat missions such as destroying armored targets and providing low-altitude fire support for ground troops like helicopter gunships, but also perform air strike missions like tactical fighters of the Air Force. According to the operational report submitted by the Army Aviation, the mission capability is about eighty percent that of a tactical fighter, if appropriately improved. Fully capable of performing attack missions in place of tactical fighters.

Pei Chengyi did not fully believe in Lu Hang's "big words".

Although the actual combat performance is very good, its combat environment is too special. If the Indian Air Force had not been completely defeated and its air defenses had not been destroyed, would the surprisingly slow mountain be able to carry out bombing missions as it pleased? Not to mention the replacement of tactical fighters, even in the face of tactical fighters,... Survival of the injury is a big question. Conclusions made on the test ground cannot be used on the battlefield, after all, there are various limitations to confrontation tests. If they encounter the fighters of the Indian Air Force on the battlefield, the Indian fighters will certainly not engage in low-altitude dogfights, but will be killed with interceptor missiles from hundreds of kilometers away.

Pei Chengyi did not completely deny the potential of "vertical take-off and landing aircraft".

If the degree can be raised, the "vertical take-off and landing aircraft" will definitely replace traditional aircraft such as tactical fighters with their lower deployment requirements, more flexible tactical performance, and more multi-faceted combat capabilities. The key to improving the flight degree of "vertical take-off and landing aircraft" is the power system. Although the intelligence of "Brahma" did not meet the requirements, the "inhalation ionization electromagnetic gyratory propulsion system" withstood the test of actual combat.

It can be said that the main purpose of continuing the "Brahma" project is to speed up the research and development of the "inhalation ionization electromagnetic gyratory propulsion system." If the problems of the propulsion system can be solved as soon as possible, and its main performance indicators such as reliability, maintainability, energy consumption and thrust-to-weight ratio can reach the level of traditional turbine motors, even if they are slightly worse, it can be applied on a large scale. Before leaving the General Staff, Pei Chengyi formulated new research and development indicators for the "Brahma" program, striving to improve the reliability of the "inhalation ionization electromagnetic gyratory propulsion system" to the point of being said by the end of the year, the reliability of the small milk type motor, that is, the average failure cycle of 10,000 hours, and the maintainability to the average number of man-hours per person. The maintainability of Liu's milk, that is, the normal maintenance time is the average working hour per person, and the energy consumption is reduced to the old... The energy consumption of Liu Ao, that is, the consumption of the old type of aviation fuel per kiloN per second, is equal to the electric energy of the composite battery of the mouth gram level. In order to facilitate the calculation, the mass of jet fuel is generally used to calculate the motor energy consumption, thrust-to-weight ratio to increase to the old... The thrust-to-weight ratio of the unified, that is, the ratio of the maximum thrust of the motor to its own weight.

If this target can be achieved, the "inhalation ionization drop gyratory propulsion system" will be able to meet the basic needs.

Although its indicators are still inferior to traditional motivations. It cannot be used in fighter jets, let alone aerospace aircraft, but it is sufficient to replace the turboprop and turboshaft motor of land aviation

The second document is a major breakthrough in military technology in the past few years.

Proposed by Zhongzhong Group to invest in the development of an old type of "inhalation ionization electromagnetic cyclotron thruster". It has passed the acceptance of the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff, and its performance indicators basically meet the requirements. What's more. Zhongzhong Group fully takes into account the continuity of military equipment. That is, it is only necessary to make a pair of... Minimal changes were made to the Witch tilt-rotary-wing aircraft. In the case that the main structure is basically maintained, the original turbine shaft motor is replaced with the old one. Considering the huge cost of refitting involved in large-scale procurement, this move can save money to the greatest extent and make the army make up its mind to change equipment.

This matter is explicitly mentioned in the third document.

Ye Zhisheng had already passed the application for refitting from the General Staff at the beginning of the year, and he had made comprehensive improvements to the three airborne armies, such as multiple planes and multiple planes, and upgraded them to with. 10,000, so that the strike capability of the army aviation is close to that of the low-altitude delivery capability; Fold.

The thugs persuaded 100 million yuan to comprehensively enhance the combat effectiveness of the three airborne armies, and the cost was not large.

When he saw this, Pei Chengyi roughly calculated, if it was done by a state-owned military enterprise. The Ministry of Defense needs to invest at least the meta. Zhongzhong Group only offered a price of 100 million yuan, promising to complete the modification of the army within half a year, and then it will also pay tribute to nearly 1,000 marines... field with o rose, as well as the navy's more than 4 aircraft called for the same improvement, also promised to provide 10,000 years of maintenance guarantee five three dead eh, station net thug fast most thought of the mouth of the small year to pay. And the push system of more well talk is successful! Technical support is provided by the Army.

Will Zhongzhong Group trade at a loss?

Definitely not!

Although it is very likely that the army will lose money on this contract, considering the future maintenance costs, as well as the modification contracts of the Marine Corps and the Navy, Zhongzhong Group will definitely be able to make money. The most important thing is that with the completion of the modification, the new generation of "vertical take-off and landing aircraft" on the battlefield will show its might, which is equivalent to the most convincing advertising for the arms of the Zhongzhong Group.

In fact. Most arms dealers are doing this.

Taking the US Loma Company as an example, when selling arms to the US military, the Loma Company rarely made money, and even often lost money. For example, the unit price of the Yiwu series of fighters after counting the cost of opening is more than $1 per dollar, and the price sold to the US military is less than $40,000 a year. Through the US military's "advertising" on the battlefield, the Loma Company sold many Yinu series fighters to many countries, with an average unit price of 100 million US dollars, not only recovering the lost US military equipment and knife holders, but also earning tens of billions of US dollars.

Private arms companies are counted as "general ledgers", while state-owned arms companies are counted as "single accounts". ”

Pei Chengyi also calculated an account. According to the estimate of the General Staff, the Zhongzhong Group will be able to recover its costs if the average profit per machine is calculated by making an average profit of 10,000 yuan. With the gradual maturity of "vertical take-off and landing aircraft", helicopters are gradually replaced. In the coming years, the total global market will be in! Blade to knife holder. Mountains and. The 10,000 series was the first to be put into the market, at least able to occupy a certain market share. In addition to the purchase volume of the United States and other Western countries, Zhongzhong Group can sell to the outside world to the point of falling four, at least making a profit

Making money is not a bad thing, at least it can ensure that the Zhongzhong Group sells weapons and equipment to the republican ** team at the lowest price.

The refitting of the armed forces is by no means just one or a few kinds of equipment, but involves hundreds, or even thousands, of equipment throughout the army. Even if the share of the Zhongzhong Group is less than 20%, it can save the republic hundreds of billions of military spending.

In the third report, the staff officer named Yuan Chenhao made clear statistics.

In the four years from the year of the milk fighter to the east of Oudong, the expenditure of the republic was about one trillion yuan, of which the expenditure on arms procurement and armament improvement accounted for about the majority. That is, more than a trillion yuan. If we follow the previous procurement pattern and sign a procurement and modification contract with a state-owned arms enterprise, it will be impossible to follow the replacement plan decided at the beginning of the first year of the first year. Private arms enterprises have proved their own capabilities with practical actions, and have also proved the advanced nature of the private model. Because the savings exceeded the forecasts of the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff at the beginning of the year. Therefore, the refitting work was much faster than originally planned, taking the army as an example, not only completed the refitting of two-thirds of the combat units, including all the main field armies, at the end of the year, but also completed the refitting work of the army aviation in the middle of the calendar year, and it is expected that the refitting work of all units will be completed by the end of the year.

The scale of the Air Force's rearmament is not as large as that of the waiting army, but the investment is even greater.

From the middle of the year of the milk beater, the Air Force first improved the original equipment; From the beginning of the year. The Air Force has stepped up its procurement of new equipment.

Improvements are mainly concentrated on several types of fighters with a large amount of equipment, such as a dozen fighters, and extending the service life of existing equipment and enhancing the combat capability of existing equipment through improvement can be regarded as the cheapest plan for improving the combat effectiveness of the air force.

Procurement is mainly focused on several cutting-edge fighters. For example, the old Xiaokou long-altitude fighter, which was finalized at the beginning of the year, was almost replaced by the "Brahma," the Xiaokou multi-role fighter, which was finalized at the end of the year, because the old wide-area transport plane that flew in the year of Lihu had the adaptability of the old tactical transport plane, the long-range carrying capacity of the strategic transport plane, and the old strategic reconnaissance plane that flew in the year of drowning, and the large electronic reconnaissance plane that used the old Ganjiu as a platform.

In order to save money, the Air Force did not completely reequip.

By the end of the year of Lishi, Xiao Jiu purchased the thug's mouth to purchase the old tactical fighter brigade with young frame equipment, Yibi purchased 3 brigades with rack equipment, and Kong Yijiu purchased the mouth frame to load the rudder and brigade. The only exception is the division of the old ones, a total of force racks have been procured to equip the old strategic transport aircraft brigade, and the rest will be delivered by the end of July to equip another brigade.

Reducing the number of purchases did not have much impact on the combat effectiveness of the Air Force.

A certain number of sophisticated fighters is enough to ensure that the Air Force seizes air supremacy, and the subsequent tasks can be completely completed by the original fighters. This combination of old and new is the same in the air forces of all countries. The U.S. Air Force still retains a large number of fighters of the Ban Yi Wu series despite the fact that it has not been able to procure fighter jets.

Compared to the procurement of the Navy, the Air Force and the Army are simply pediatric!
