readx; Not to mention the disputes between these high-ranking military generals, Guo Chengdong's strong hand made the Fourth Armored Army have strong combat effectiveness in the shortest possible time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoGuo Chengdong directly assigned the Reading Tank Battalion and other auxiliary units taken from the Ninth Army to the Fourth Panzer Army. As a result, although the Fourth Panzer Army has only two main divisions, it has six tank battalions, twelve armored infantry battalions, one special operations battalion, eight self-propelled artillery battalions, three self-propelled air defense battalions, and many auxiliary units, including four transport regiments for truck transport alone.

In addition to the more traditional units mentioned above, the 4th Panzer Corps was also attached to a very special unit, the 7th Air Cavalry Battalion, during the recuperation period in Turkey. Although the name of the battalion is marked with the word cavalry, it has nothing to do with horses, and they are equipped with helicopters.

China's development of helicopters is relatively early, as early as 1940 began to have a planned study, in this process the guard division has made great efforts, because the guard division wanted to build the guard division aviation team, was the air force that group of people desperately opposed, and finally failed, but the then guard division commander Lieutenant General Lin Jingfei did not give up the idea of letting the guard division obtain air power, since the traditional aircraft can not be obtained, so a helicopter came out, and this is the HT series helicopter designed and produced by Huatai Airlines, Its improved model HT28 was officially purchased and put into service by the guard division, and the army named it the H1 helicopter. Seeing the huge potential of helicopters, the navy, army, and air forces quickly followed up and purchased a large number of helicopters for experimental service, while the H1-JC helicopters equipped by the navy were rapidly equipped with a number of destroyers, mainly carrying out sea surface collection tasks, and were active and frequent during the third Sino-Chinese war last year, and rescued many pilots who fell into the water.

In the past few years, Huatai Airlines from the beginning of the small enterprises with assets of only a few million yuan to obtain a huge order from the navy, land and air force, a huge amount of funds to Huatai Airlines has more adequate research and development funds, in addition to the continuous improvement of the basic model of H1, quickly launched many modifications of H1 helicopters, including carrier-based transport search and rescue H1-JC, ship-based anti-submarine H1-JS, armed attack surname H1-G used by the army.

Among the many models here, the anti-submarine and armed attack models are not successful, due to the defects of the H1 prototype, resulting in their anti-submarine and attack capabilities are relatively low, the army and navy have not paid much attention to it, but only purchased a small amount for preliminary test use. What has really been purchased and equipped on a large scale by the navy, army and air force is the basic model of H1, that is, the transport search and rescue model, including the H1-C used by the army and the H1-JC used by the navy.

At present, the main task of these helicopters is search and rescue, and the other is to carry out short-distance transportation missions.

The navy doesn't say it, but when it comes to the army, they directly imitate the helicopter brigade of the guard division of the guard division and set up a number of helicopter units, but the army and the guard division have always looked at each other unpleasantly, and the army despises the helicopter brigade of the guard division in the name, so it gives its helicopter unit a very strong name, calling it the air cavalry. A total of thirteen air cavalry battalions have been formed, each armed with thirty-six H1-C helicopters.

Since the helicopter unit is a nascent business, the army still has relatively big concerns about the actual combat use of helicopters; in the past few years, it has been conducting various experiments in peacetime, not only to test the surname of helicopters, but also to find out a specific combat situation for the use of helicopters. When the pioneer always needs to pay a lot of costs and time, limited by the early helicopter surname defects and unreliable and other factors, the army's helicopter unit in order to explore a variety of use tactics, but paid the price of blood, in recent years, the army just because of training to lose more than 100 helicopters, some because of driving factors, some are helicopters themselves are not reliable enough and other factors. The only thing that has suffered such a big loss in equipping new equipment is the Navy's jet carrier-based aircraft.

The Navy has lost more than 100 test planes of various kinds in the past few years in an attempt to get jet planes on board, and after the plan for jet carrier-based aircraft was formalized at the end of last year, the Navy's first squadron of jet carrier-based aircraft deployed on the Tianshan lost more than 12 jet planes due to various accidents in just three months. The huge accident training loss rate caused the elite pilots of the Navy to have a deep rejection of jet aircraft, and even when the second squadron of jet carrier-based aircraft was deployed to the Wutaishan, the pilots went on strike. As a result, the navy dealt with a few leading pilots seriously before suppressing this boycott.

At the same time, the Navy has also made intensive improvements to almost 100 problems with the F11A fighter jets, including the design of the fuselage, the landing procedures on the aircraft carrier, and the lack of good pilot perspective when the F11 fighter is landing, the most serious of which is the repeated air parking problem of the engine equipped with the F11 fighter. The F11A fighter uses the CZ40-2 engine of Chuzhou Aircraft Company, because although the power of this engine is good, but the stability is too poor, the Navy has no choice but to abandon the Chuzhou Aircraft Company that has cooperated for many years, and chose the FL43-3 engine of Fule Electric, and the F11 fighter equipped with the FL43-3 engine and the design of hundreds of fuselage improvements is also named F11C, and the stable surname is much higher than the original F11A fighter.

As for the F11C just finalized last month, the Navy can't wait to purchase a large number of F11Cs to equip the newly established jet carrier-based aircraft squadrons, and at the same time, it will also replace the original F11A of the original three jet carrier-based aircraft squadrons in a timely manner.

As a result, China's first jet carrier-based aircraft F11A has completely withdrawn from active service in the Navy after a short service career of less than half a year.

For many years, Chuzhou Aircraft has been a strategic partner of naval jet carrier-based aircraft, and in the research and development of naval jet carrier-based aircraft, it has not been like the Air Force, which is led by the Air Force and directly organizes the cooperation of several major domestic airlines. The F12 fighter of the Chinese Air Force is not the product of a simple airline, but is mainly developed by Fule Electric, Chuzhou Aircraft Company, Guang'an Aircraft Company, plus Hanzhong Electronics, Tianjin Youbang Machinery and many other top domestic high-tech enterprises, and even in order to develop and produce faster, many of the above companies were forced to establish a joint venture under the strong pressure of the Ministry of the Air Force 'China United Airlines' for the research and development of various subsystems of the F12 fighter and responsible for the final assembly of the F12 fighter.

However, the Navy's F11 fighter has always been a strategic cooperation project between the Navy and Chuzhou Aircraft Company, although Chuzhou Aircraft Company has also adopted various new technologies from other major domestic enterprises, but Chuzhou Aircraft Company is still stubborn to give F11 combat equipment to their special F11 fighter developed CZ40 series engines.

However, from a practical point of view, the technical ability of Chuzhou Aircraft Company is still not comparable with a behemoth like Fule Electric, although the CZ40-2 engine has been developed, which makes it reach a thrust of 2,300 kilograms, but it is much worse than the FL43 series of Fule Electric.

In the past four years, Rear Admiral Qi Yanglin, director of the Navy's Jet Carrier Aircraft Development Office and deputy director of the Aviation Department of the Navy's Ordnance Department, was also implicated, and was exposed to accept more than 600,000 yuan of finance from many domestic enterprises in the past few years, and was finally sent to a military court, followed by a death sentence and a secret execution.

This Rear Admiral Qi Yanglin, who single-handedly led and developed the F11 fighter, actually died quite unjustly, and no matter how he said it, he also single-handedly got the F11 fighter jet out. As for embezzlement and the like, this kind of thing can be big or small. To put it mildly, there have been many corruption scandals in China today, and during the war last year, the deputy director of the army's logistics department was sentenced to prison for receiving lobbying funds from several domestic defense contracting companies. Others that have not been exposed are even more.

During the war, the scale of military procurement reached hundreds of billions of scale, countless domestic enterprises are staring at this big cake, although those large enterprises will not directly come forward to give gifts to those senior military generals who are responsible for procurement, but in addition to the powerful and other high-level political leaders in Nanjing, there are many political lobbyists, these people contact military and political dignitaries in a private capacity, lobbying the military and political leaders on behalf of the enterprises behind them, direct gifts are relatively low means, generally speaking, they are traded in other ways, For example, sending a large order to a businessman of a military general, or donating money directly to a charitable fund run by the wife of a senior official, it is even simpler for the legislators, who can legally receive political contributions, and a large number of corporations are vying to send them money in exchange for them to vote in their favor when certain bills are enacted. Although these political donations are not directly given to these legislators themselves, but to their campaign offices, they must be used openly and cannot be used for private purposes, but only for public expenses such as campaign expenses.

The most direct reason why Rear Admiral Qi Yanglin was sentenced was that the F11A fighter had continuous accidents, and he was unable to give a solution, and finally forced the navy's top brass to look for the air force, and let the air force give up part of the FL43 engine production for the navy, which made Marshal Guan Shijie ridiculed in front of Air Marshal Wu Shizhong for a long time: said that the navy spent more than a billion dollars, and it took four or five years to finally get a garbage plane, and now he wants to follow the air force to pick up cheap.
