Chapter 147 News released! This is outrageous, you guys have stealth bombers?
The first flight of Daxia Y-20 large strategic transport aircraft was successful!
Not only these "wall-climbers" and hundreds of R&D personnel at Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation are excited.
This news, which could be described as "unconcealed", "exploded" the entire Daxia Internet in an instant.
[Daxia's first large strategic transport aircraft made a successful maiden flight, and the whole country was excited! ]
[Surpassing the Il-76, Daxia finally got the "favorite"! 】
[Compared to the Eagle Sauce C-17 Global Overlord? How big is the performance difference between the two? 】
[A new generation of strategic transport aircraft? Experts explain in detail: The new transport aircraft is a modified Y-9, not the Y-20 as military fans say! ]
[Confusing! The maximum take-off weight of the Y-20 strategic transport aircraft is expected to be more than 180 tons? ]
Although the official media and the government have not yet made an official announcement, online media such as NetEase News and Sina News have released first-hand news reports, fearing that they will lose the popularity if they are a step slower.
After all, they are not stupid. If the authorities really want to control it, this news will never be "spread freely" on the Internet.
This is clearly news that was released intentionally. Even a fool would know how to gain popularity, right?
Military fan gathering places like the 'Daxia Military Forum' have once again collapsed due to the terrifying influx of traffic in a short period of time.
Not to mention these military forums, even in QQ groups and various game chat channels, many netizens are involuntarily sending this exciting news.
We have large military aircraft! We also have the fifth-generation Daxia aircraft!
So will the rest be far behind?
"What will be the next new equipment of our Great Xia?" This question arose in everyone's mind at the same time.
At this time.
Even major foreign media, such as CNN, Fox, BBC and other news groups, have followed up and reported on this "unexpected" news.
However, the words they reported were not so "upright".
[Daxia's new generation of strategic transport aircraft is unveiled. Will this "deterrence" affect Asia-Pacific security? 】
[Daxia, which has the ability to deploy strategic forces, will destroy the 'refugees' and 'children' in the Middle East and Africa! ]
[The Pentagon's Asia-Pacific Security Affairs Office announced that it will increase the budget for Asian bases in the near future. ]
Just as various media at home and abroad were constantly releasing news.
Suddenly, the Daxia Aviation Industry Group, which is the direct superior of the Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation's 603 Research Institute, once again released a new report on its official website.
And it's still the same old 'old news', even the template seems to be exactly the same.
【Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation 603 Research Institute has made new progress in research and development, and will report and display the results in the near future! 】
After seeing this news, almost all netizens were in deep doubt.
I couldn't help but start muttering inwardly: "Isn't this the same piece of news that came out this morning? Why did the Aviation Industry Corporation of China release it again?"
"Is it celebrating the successful first flight of the Y-20? Was the previous press release just released too early?"
With this skeptical attitude, they clicked on the link of the news and jumped to the news details page.
Only see.
Even the content is the same paragraph, not even a single punctuation mark is added.
If there is any difference from the news this morning, it is that there is an additional "meaningless" picture.
The hazy figure obscured its features, and only its outline could be roughly seen.
"Is this the Y-20 transport plane?"
This is the first impression that comes to mind for everyone who sees this picture.
In an instant, he immediately refuted this idea: "It's impossible. This is definitely not a transport plane!"
The aircraft in the outline of the picture has an extremely flat fuselage and irregular edges that make it look like a flying wing. How could it be a transport plane?
How could a transport aircraft waste such a huge amount of space to make such a "weird" aerodynamic layout?
Fighter jets? But Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation is not developing fighter jets. If it is developing anything, it should be developing bombers!
Instantly, the military fans reacted and gasped: "Hiss, is it possible?"
Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation, bomber, flat flying wing aerodynamic layout, these keywords put together are enough to arouse people's imagination.
"Could it be that our Daxia's next new equipment is that thing?"
In their minds is reflected a "dream-like" equipment, which is also the pride of the entire American Air Force.
B-2 'Ghost' stealth strategic bomber!
Could the next surprise that Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation is going to give to the more than one billion people in Daxia be the so-called 'new strategic stealth bomber'?
This surprise is a bit too big, isn't it?
Across the ocean.
When it was noon in Daxia, it was already early morning here in Yingjiang.
Even in a world-class metropolis like New York, there are few pedestrians on the streets during this time of year, and no one dares to wander around outside in the early hours of the morning.
Not to mention other cities, which can be described as "sparsely populated". Apart from gangs and criminals, there are only some homeless vagrants and drunkards on the streets. Arlington Town, the Pentagon.
"what happened?"
"Why are you calling me back so hastily? What big thing happened somewhere?" Kimi Andrew rubbed his eyes sleepily and drank a cup of black coffee without sugar or milk. "Is there a rebellion in Latin America or Africa that affects our trade and needs to be suppressed? Or is Israel massacring refugee camps again?"
As the director of the United States' Global Affairs Security Office, he was woken up by an urgent phone call just as he was falling asleep.
His first reaction was to find out what big problem had occurred somewhere in the world.
"Sir, it's not about these things." The assistant shook his head and handed over a document: "It's about the Asia-Pacific region. Daxia has revealed the latest news. They have developed and flown a large strategic transport aircraft named 'Y-20'!"
After taking the document and scanning it carefully.
Kimi Andrew's eyes flashed with a trace of solemnity: "Why are their research and development speed so fast?"
"Didn't they say that the research and development project was launched in the past two years? It's only been less than three years and it's already been made?"
Even those military fans could hear some rumors, so how could they, the Eagle Sauce, not know?
Even from the various improved models of Daxia's Y-8 and the Y-9 developed in the past few years, it is fully capable of manufacturing and developing "large strategic transport aircraft".
However, the Pentagon never thought that Daxia could develop so quickly.
"Damn the intelligence department, what on earth are they doing?" Kimi Andrew slammed the table fiercely: "The information submitted previously said that it is expected to take at least ten years."
"Is this what they call 'ten years'? Are the people who are looking for it blind?"
He was not surprised that Daxia developed the large strategic transport aircraft 'Y-20', but what made Kimi Andrew angry was that these intelligence departments made mistakes one after another.
Recently, every piece of news about Daxia has shown huge deviations. How can the Pentagon dare to believe any information they present in the future?
However, he hadn't finished getting angry yet.
The assistant next to him reported in a low voice: "Sir, this is not the only news, and this is not the key point I want to report."
"Daxia announced that it will 'report' on the success of its new research and development in the near future."
"New research and development results?" Kimi Andrew frowned.
"It's the same 'stealth strategic bomber' as our B-2."
After saying that, the assistant handed over the news posted on the front page of 'Daxia Aviation Industry Group'.
Kimi Andrew saw the outline of the plane with a hazy figure at a glance.
Trembling all over, with a dull look in his eyes, he muttered to himself: "Stealth strategic bomber? Daxia's latest research and development achievement?!"
"How come I didn't get any news? How is this possible?!"
Daxia also has stealth strategic bombers?
Where did they get this stuff from?
Compared with the previous 'large strategic transport aircraft', the 'stealth strategic bomber' in front of him was completely unacceptable to him.
The intelligence department didn't notice any sign of this news, as if this project had suddenly popped out of a stone.
The key is that there are many similar alternatives to large strategic transport aircraft around the world. Even Japan has the C-2 transport aircraft. There is nothing strange about this. The United States itself is selling the C-17 'Globemaster'.
But when it comes to the 'stealth strategic bomber', the 'B-2' is the only one in the world.
If Daxia can develop it now, doesn't that mean that in terms of long-range bombing capability, both sides are on the same starting line, and even the Eagle Sauce may fall behind?
Kimi Andrew fell into a long thought: "It's just a disclosure picture... There's not even a real machine reference picture."
"Is this another smokescreen? It's fake news."
After all, the last fifth-generation aircraft that looked very much like the F22 didn’t cause any movement from Daxia!
As for the J-20 that made its maiden flight, the two aircraft had very little similarity, and the possibility that they were the same had been ruled out.
So, will the result of last time be repeated this time?
In fact, Daxia is not developing any stealth strategic bombers at all?
But what if? ?
Daxia also has a stealth bomber, what will the Eagles do?
Their own B-2 'Ghost' bomber is about to be discontinued, but Daxia is developing a new generation of stealth bomber. Isn't this a joke?
"Make an application report. We must build a new generation of stealth bombers to maintain our technological advantage over Daxia." Kimi Andrew's eyes narrowed. "First, submit a manufacturing budget of 5 million US dollars per aircraft."
As for the actual budget needed, it depends on the military-industrial complex and how much the congressmen want to take.
'I hope it's not too harsh!'
He began to pray in his heart.
If these "Smith" congressmen are too harsh, the production cost of this new stealth strategic bomber will be several billion US dollars, and the entire Eagle Sauce's military expenditure will really be unsustainable.
The people's money has been almost completely plundered. After collecting taxes for ninety years, the people have become paupers!
There is no more money to be made from anyone!
(Second update, please give me monthly tickets! On the second day of July, please give me monthly tickets if you have any!!)
