Chapter 80: Shocked! Are you serious? Daxia is going to build an aircraft carrier? !
The 601 Institute is preparing to develop the fifth-generation carrier-based aircraft.

This piece of news, which was not concealed at all, was naturally transmitted to various research and development bases in Daxia before it was announced.

Sichuan and Shu.

The 611 Institute, the current mortal enemy of the 601 Institute.

Song Qinyi, who devoted himself to the research and development of the J-20, did not react much when he heard the news.

After all, where does the technical data of the J-35 come from? Even if others don’t know, doesn’t he know?

"Boss, what do you think?" asked the deputy next to him.

It's not just a fifth-generation fighter, but it's also a carrier-based aircraft. This time, the 601 Institute has quietly launched a powerful move!
"It seems that their 601 Institute is going to compete with us."

Song Qinyi sighed twice: "You guys better hurry up. If others overtake us, we will lose face."

He could naturally see that it was not the intention of the 35 Institute to err on the side of the J-601 development plan.

But this doesn't mean that Jiang Dingqian doesn't think so. He might be thinking of some bad ideas in his mind.

"What are you worried about, Old Song?"

As the person in charge of the engine project, Xu Qing still had some oil stains on his body. After wiping his oily hands with a towel, he glanced at Song Qinyi and said, "With our R&D progress, how can the 601 Institute catch up?"

The J-20 is expected to make its maiden flight in a month or two, while the J-35 project has only just been launched.

He was already several years behind in time. If he were caught up, Xu Qing would crash into the engine and die on the spot.

"Lao Xu, aren't you worried about someone snatching away the J-20 order?"

The deputy began to laugh and joke.

The Air Force had no choice before, so the J-20 had to be purchased no matter what.

But after the J-35 is developed, we will have to compare prices carefully, because other people’s air force funding does not fall from the sky.

"What is there to be afraid of? Do you think our J-20 has poor performance?"

Xu Qing snorted coldly, not caring at all: "Besides, they are developing a medium-sized multi-purpose carrier-based aircraft... and there is no direct competition between them and our J-20."

A medium-sized multi-purpose carrier-based aircraft can never be compared with a heavy air superiority aircraft like the J-20 in terms of performance.

Without air superiority aircraft, how can you have absolute air superiority?
"Old Xu, don't look down on others. Fighters like the J-35 have a wider range of applications."

Song Qinyi shook his head: "This is a fighter jet that can truly be called 'multi-functional'."

He is very clear about the performance data of the J-35. Not only can the Air Force and Navy be equipped with it, even the Army can use the vertical take-off and landing version of the J-35.

By that time, when it comes to production and procurement volume, I'm afraid their J-20 will really not be able to compare.

"I don't know how the Eagle Sauce will react."

He is now very curious about the reaction of the Americans when they see the J-35. Will they be scared to death?
Eagle sauce, look at this J-35, does it look like the F35 that you haven’t developed yet?

The sun is high in the sky, shining brightly.

The scorching heat of June has already approached the entire summer, and even the three northern provinces have turned on the air conditioners.

The Sichuan region is like taking a sauna in a furnace, with waves of heat blowing directly in, adding fuel to the fire.

now.

As an old military fan, Zhang Wei did not go to the black Internet cafe to surf the Internet. Instead, he took advantage of the holiday to go back to the countryside with his wife and children.

It’s not far from the 611 Institute, just across a city.

Holding a cell phone, he squatted on a pile of dirt and kept checking messages.

"Zhang Wei, have you finished washing the diapers I asked you to wash?" A loud female voice came from inside the room, but the voice arrived before the person arrived.

"Wife, didn't I tell you?"

Zhang Wei put down the clothes in his hand and sighed: "Outside, you have to call me by my title."

He turned around helplessly and looked at his wife in front of him. Although she was so bright and beautiful, others would probably only use the word "lady from a noble family" to describe her appearance.

When the two first met, Zhang Wei actually felt the same way. It was not until they got married that he understood what the saying "marry a Sichuan or Chongqing woman and enjoy a life of adventurous times" meant.

Although my wife is a little fierce, she is very reasonable in most cases.

"Got it, husband."

The wife replied, looking at his absent-minded state and the untouched clothes and diapers beside him.

"Sure enough, it's not washed. Why do you care about things like 'military' and 'fighter jets and tanks' every day? You can't eat those things. If you have the time, you might as well help me mop the floor at home."

They have been married for so many years, how could she not know her husband's interests and hobbies? He must have been busy watching some military news just now, so he refused to do housework.

"If you don't care about these military news," Zhang Wei's eyes lit up: "You mean, I can go fishing?"

He only has these two hobbies. If he is not allowed to pay attention to military news, then he can only go fishing.

I haven't gone fishing for a long time, and I feel a little itchy when you mention it.

"Fishing?" His wife quickly shook her head: "Then you should continue to read your military news. Don't even think about fishing!"

After saying that, she hurried back to the house. She had already heard the sound of the child crying. Zhang Wei was squatting at home reading military news and was at most absent-minded, but if he was allowed to go fishing? Who knows how many days and nights he can fish?

Chinese people always like to compromise.

"It seems there is no hope for fishing," Zhang Wei sighed and planned to finish washing the clothes.

At this moment, he suddenly felt the cell phone in his trouser pocket vibrating wildly.

The beeping sound continued to ring.

He took out his Nokia N72 mobile phone and took a look at the screen.

Sure enough, a group chat called 'Daxia Military Fans Exchange ② Group' in the mobile QQ was constantly flashing various latest information.

"What are these people talking about?" Zhang Wei felt a little strange. Although this group was very lively on weekdays, it shouldn't be so lively, right?

I pressed the arrow keys a few times and tapped 5 on the number pad to enter the group chat. (Is there anyone who hasn't used the feature phone version of QQ?)

When he clicked on it, he saw that the group was frantically forwarding a link to a website. He didn't even see what it was exactly. There were hundreds of messages flashing through the group of a thousand people almost every second.

When I open this URL using a mobile browser, it is loading extremely slowly.

Zhang Wei lit a cigarette, not in a hurry at all.

After all, in 09, 3G mobile communication networks were not yet popular, and most people were still using 2G networks, with Internet speeds of only more than ten KB per second at most. To open a URL that was hundreds or thousands of KB in size, wouldn't you have to wait a long time?
After loading for a while, the webpage slowly opened.

Suddenly, he saw an extremely shocking piece of news hanging high on the homepage.

[Daxia Aviation Industry Group and Daxia 601 Flight Base Research Center jointly announced. ]

[A new generation of fighter jets will be developed. It is revealed that the new fighter jet will have supersonic cruise and stealth capabilities to ensure the safety of our country's offshore blue skies! ]

At this moment, Zhang Wei finally understood why the people in the group were so excited, and even his hands couldn't help but tremble violently.

A new generation of fighter jets?

And it also has supersonic cruise and stealth capabilities? Isn't this a capability that only fifth-generation aircraft have?
"No way, we are going to develop a new fifth-generation aircraft?" Zhang Wei muttered, somewhat unable to believe this reality.

The fifth-generation aircraft of the 611 Institute has already achieved initial results, and now your 601 Institute is also going to build a fifth-generation aircraft? Are you guys playing team-building here?

I was saying there was something fishy about this, a fifth-generation aircraft fell from the sky!
And, more importantly.

He frowned and asked, "Why should this fighter jet ensure the safety of our country's offshore skies?"

This sentence always puzzled him.

If it is an ordinary fighter jet, then Daxia could just say that it can ensure the safety of the dome and protect the blue sky, so why add the word "near sea" specifically?
Could it be that.
"This TM new generation of fighter jets to be developed is the fifth generation carrier-based aircraft?" Zhang Wei's eyes popped out.

This was the only explanation that made sense. This was not an ordinary fighter plane, but a carrier-based aircraft, so it was needed to protect the safety of the ocean.

Within the group.

"It is necessary to specifically mention the safety of the coastal waters. This is clearly a carrier-based aircraft."

"Is this a fifth-generation fighter jet that is actually a carrier-based aircraft?"

"Carrier-based aircraft don't need a take-off platform, right? Can it take off and land from an island?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Carrier-based aircraft must take off and land on aircraft carriers."

"No, aircraft carrier?? You think, will this happen?"

Since aircraft carriers are the only way to carry carrier-based aircraft, if Daxia has a new generation of carrier-based aircraft, it must have an aircraft carrier.

Think of this.

In this group of thousands of people, who had just been receiving hundreds of messages per second, everyone stopped moving abruptly, and their hearts seemed to be beating at an unprecedented speed.

This announcement obviously did not mention any carrier-based aircraft, let alone any aircraft carriers.

But the speculation behind this is enough to make people think a lot.

A bold idea popped up in their minds.

"We in Daxia are going to build an aircraft carrier?"

Aircraft carrier, this word alone is enough to make them excited.

Not to mention that new carrier-based aircraft need to be developed, so how long will it take for aircraft carriers to be realized?
But how come Daxia suddenly developed an aircraft carrier? They hadn't heard of any news recently.

At this moment, almost everyone in the group thought of the same thing at the same time.

Daxia does own an aircraft carrier, which was purchased from abroad.

That is the Varyag aircraft carrier!
"Wasn't the unfinished Varyag aircraft carrier towed back from the Russians for modification?"

"I remember that the aircraft carrier had everything that could be dismantled dismantled, even the main shaft was broken, right?"

"Yeah. Actually, there's only an empty shell left. Can we fix it?"

"Fuck, didn't they say before that they were planning to transform it into a water park?"

The Varyag was not intended to be used as an amusement park? Instead, it was intended to be converted into an aircraft carrier?

Daxia, are you serious?
(First update. I didn’t get enough rest yesterday and have a headache today. I’ll try to write the second update as quickly as possible.)
(Please give me monthly votes and recommendation tickets. If you don’t vote at the end of the month, they will disappear tomorrow.)
