The rejuvenation of a great nation: from educated youth to national treasure scientist

Chapter 183: Using Martial Arts to Support Martial Arts
Zhao Xiansheng nodded and said, "This is indeed a big problem!"

"It seems that we still have a lot to learn in terms of military modernization."

He shook his head in frustration. "But now, in order to modernize our economy, we have begun to significantly reduce our investment in military research. I think this is not right."

Wang Haoran said: "We must never let down our guard in military modernization!"

"Whoever lets this string go will suffer great losses in the future."

"I still say that military-civilian integration, one hand for military industry and the other for civilian use, the two are actually not contradictory."

"For example, in the field of aircraft manufacturing, if we can build advanced engines and advanced fighter jets, then we can also build advanced large civilian aircraft!"

"And large civil aircraft can be exported to earn foreign exchange."

"The same is true in the field of shipbuilding. If our civilian shipbuilding industry develops, our navy will certainly be able to increase the number of large ships."

Zhao Xiansheng said: "Comrade Haoran, you have a close relationship with the higher-ups. He will listen carefully to whatever you say."

"I hope you can find time to talk to him."

"Those who love war will perish, those who forget war will be in danger."

"If the military construction cannot keep up, no matter how well the economy develops, it will still be a fat sheep after all!"

Zhao Xiansheng's voice was a little low.

Wang Haoran smiled and said, “Don’t worry too much!”

"In fact, the leaders above have a relatively clear insight into the world situation."

"How could our J-10 be successfully developed without support from above? Right?"

"The leadership at the top is very supportive of the modernization of high-tech military industry!"

Zhao Xiansheng smiled a little: "In fact, selling arms can also earn foreign exchange."

"Isn't Jusa the world's largest arms dealer?"

Wang Haoran nodded and said, "That's right! Arms is also a big business."

"So, we must continue to demonstrate our strength! Attract other forces to buy castrated versions of arms from us."

"Wherever the arms business reaches, our sphere of influence will also reach there!"

Zhao Xiansheng nodded and said, "That's right!"

"Comrade Haoran, please help our Air Force! Our Air Force is facing a lot of pressure right now."

"It would be great if the electronic warfare equipment you mentioned could be developed."

Wang Haoran smiled slightly and said, "I will study it as soon as possible and try my best to get it done!"

"Well! I think we need to make some efforts in the area of ​​large aircraft."

"We will strive to develop a domestically produced large transport aircraft."

"This can also take down the platform of electronic warfare equipment."

The J-10's maiden flight was successful, but the news was basically blocked.

Longguo will not widely publicize this matter.

Therefore, not many people in China know about this matter.

By the way, Professor Zhang Yunqiu of Northwestern Polytechnical University also watched the entire test flight of the J-10 that day.

He was shocked by the amazing performance of the J-10.

He never dreamed that the J-10's performance would be so comprehensive.

This also made him frustrated.

The better the J-10 performs, the more disadvantageous it will be for him.

Now that the J-8 is perfect, the J- seems even more useless.

Zhang Yunqiu thought to himself, can I still convince Zhao Xiansheng to support me to continue the J-8 project?
He basically had no hope anymore.

But even so, he decided to try his luck.

After the J-10 test flight was over, when Zhao Xiansheng was talking to Wang Haoran, Zhang Yunqiu came to their side.

There are several other air force bosses around Wang Haoran and Zhao Xiansheng.

But those people basically did not interrupt when Wang Haoran and Zhao Xiansheng were talking.

Zhang Yunqiu could only listen patiently.

After Zhao Xiansheng finished chatting with Wang Haoran, he turned around and looked at Zhang Yunqiu: "Teacher Zhang, is there anything I can do for you?"

Zhang Yunqiu quickly apologized with a smile and said, "Leader, I invited you to inspect my research project yesterday, and you agreed."

"I'll see when you're free today..."

Zhao Xiansheng smiled and shook his head and said, "Ha! I almost forgot about this."

"Okay, let's wait until the afternoon. I'll go over and take a look around 3pm."

"It won't work this morning. The J-10 has just completed its test flight. We must hold a meeting to summarize and arrange the next work, right?"

Zhang Yunqiu nodded and said with a smile: "Okay! Then can I also attend the summary meeting on the first test flight of the J-10 this morning?"

“I also hope that I can have the opportunity to offer some advice and suggestions.”

Zhang Yunqiu is indeed a famous expert in the domestic aviation industry.

Zhao Xiansheng said: "Well! It would be nice if you could join in."

Zhang Yunqiu breathed a sigh of relief.

The summary meeting of the first test flight of the J-10 was a highly secret meeting.

The fact that I can still participate means one thing: I am still valued.

"Thank you, leader!"

Zhao Xiansheng waved his hand and said, "You're welcome!"

The summary meeting of the J-10's first test flight was held in the Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation's conference room one hour after the test flight ended.

The participants were mainly bigwigs from the Air Force and the backbone of Wang Haoran's J-10 research team.

And, of course, there are test pilots.

And Zhang Yunqiu is considered a special guest.

The summary meeting began with test pilot Lin Jianjun talking about the entire test flight process.

Test flight is very important. All the performance of the aircraft during the test flight must be recorded and then summarized.

Test pilots have the most direct understanding of the defects and problems of the aircraft.

When Lin Jianjun talked about his feelings during the entire test flight process, he was full of praise for the J-10.

He said: "Comrades, among all the aircraft I have tested, the J-10 can be said to have performed perfectly. Even the F-16 of Jusa is far inferior to it."

"At present, the J-10 has almost no shortcomings."

"Its acceleration, its flexibility, it's unmatched!"

“It has a lot of power output, and the performance of the engine is amazing.”

"I think it is a true all-weather fighter!"

"If our air force can be equipped with such fighters as soon as possible, our air force will be able to move from third-rate to first-rate in the world!"

"If we can have 100 J-10s, the air defense pressure facing our country in the south will be greatly reduced!"

"If we can have 500 J-10s, those scumbag generals around us will not dare to act rashly!"

"My suggestion is that the J-10 development and production team should speed up and ensure that our J-10 fighter jets can be put into service as soon as possible!"

"I beg you on behalf of all the comrades in the Air Force!"

After saying that, Lin Jianjun stood up and saluted Wang Haoran.

Wang Haoran smiled and quickly stood up and returned a not-so-standard military salute.

He said: "Comrade Jianjun, don't worry! As long as you don't find any problems in the subsequent test flights, the manufacturing speed of the J-10 will be far beyond your imagination!"

"I hope you can continue to conduct other test flights and perform high-intensity flights in various real harsh environments."

"In fact, I think there is one key point in the next test flight of the J-10, which is the test of the airframe's robustness."

In the past, due to insufficient production technology, the structural strength of many of Longguo’s fighter jets was not sufficient, which was definitely a huge hidden danger.

Many new materials were used in the development of the J-10 fighter.

Although these materials have been subjected to various tests in the laboratory, this does not represent testing under actual flight conditions.

Because the test pilot did not raise any questions, the next meeting mainly discussed the items to be tested in the next test flight, and also how to quickly train pilots for the J-10 fighter jet.

As the chief engineer of the J-10, Wang Haoran also talked about his ideas for upgrading and improving the J-10.

It is true that the J-10 is an all-weather, all-round fighter, but an all-round fighter sometimes does not mean it is the best choice in all combat projects.

Many times, it is necessary to highlight one feature and push it to the extreme, which may better meet the needs of future wars.

According to Wang Haoran's idea, the J-10 will be developed into a series of fighter jets. At the same time, Wang Haoran once again raised the issue that information warfare is a core of future warfare.

In order to adapt to information warfare and electronic warfare, the J-10's avionics system must also leave enough room for upgrades!

Although Doppler pulse radar is quite good, it is still far behind phased array radar.

In the future, Wang Haoran still hopes to push the phased array radar to the extreme and use airborne phased array radar on fighter jets.

In addition to these, Wang Haoran also proposed plans to develop large military transport aircraft, new large strategic bombers, stealth fighters, electronic warfare aircraft, and so on.

Zhao Xiansheng was very happy to hear Wang Haoran's speech.

He was very happy. If the Air Force could really develop according to the plan proposed by Wang Haoran, it would definitely be one of the strongest air forces in the world!
What Jusa, what big bear, I want to be on par with you, or even surpass you.

Judaism's hegemony can be achieved by relying on its navy and air force.

The navy controls sea power and controls global shipping lanes.

The Air Force can use its air superiority to pin its opponents to the ground.

After Wang Haoran finished speaking, Zhao Xiansheng led the applause.

There was thunderous applause in the conference room and it lasted for a long time.

When the applause died down, Zhao Xiansheng said, "Comrade Haoran, according to your idea, I'm afraid our Air Force will have to invest a huge amount of funds and resources in subsequent research and development, right?"

Wang Haoran smiled and said, "It will take quite a lot of resources."

Zhao Xiansheng scratched his head and said, "I guess the country may not necessarily support such a large investment."

Wang Haoran smiled and said, "We need to try to convince the leaders above, right?"

"We've talked about this before. Once we have developed advanced equipment, we can also sell it to earn foreign exchange."

"Yes! This is what is called supporting research and development funds through the export of weapons."

"There are still many big dog owners in the desert. We need to do more public relations."

"Jusa may appear to be getting along well with the desert camels, but he is actually very wary of them."

"For example, Jusa will never sell advanced weapons to Camel, because it wants to ensure that the little squid has a generational advantage."

"Let's help the camel make up for its shortcomings!"

"And our brothers in Black Africa can also be big buyers of our arms."

Zhang Yunqiu couldn't help but interject at this time: "Selling advanced weapons to other forces, doesn't it threaten our own safety?"

Wang Haoran glanced at Zhang Yunqiu with a smile and said, "Teacher Zhang, that's a good question."

"Let me explain this as well."

"Those who purchase weapons from abroad generally don't have any military-industrial system."

"Whoever they buy weapons from, they will need to rely on that other party for maintenance and they will also have to buy ammunition from that other party."

"In this way, the other party will be incorporated into our system and will have to become our friendly country."

"So, you can see that Yusa's weapons are sold all over the world, and it has also built up its own small partner system."

"In addition, the export version will definitely have much less functions than the one used in China."

"Finally, the most advanced weapons, they're definitely not for sale, right?"

"After I explained it this way, Teacher Zhang should understand, right?"

Zhang Yunqiu hesitated for a moment, but decided to sing the opposite tune again: "Then why is Daxiong..."

Wang Haoran smiled and said, "That's because we are a truly independent and powerful country! We can digest the purchased weapons, reverse engineer them, and then produce them ourselves."

"But the vast majority of countries in the world don't actually have this capability!"

At this time, Zhao Xiansheng waved his hand and said, "I think Comrade Haoran is right!"

"Fuck, we can do the same thing the first two can do, so do it well!"

Zhang Yunqiu also quickly expressed his opinion: "In fact, I also strongly support Comrade Haoran."

He was a little anxious at the moment.

Because he has already understood: the J-8 he led is definitely a special brew and will be abandoned.

The J-10 is simply too successful.

This has resulted in the J-8 becoming meaningless now.

This was something that made him feel very sad.

But he still has a little bit of hope in his heart.

What he hopes now is that even if the J-8 is abandoned, he can still lead the development of a new aircraft.

The meeting is over.

We had lunch together at noon.

Because the J-10 test flight was successful and the situation was very good, Zhao Xiansheng specially allowed some wine at noon, which could be regarded as a celebration banquet.

At the banquet, Wang Haoran sat at the same table with Zhao Xiansheng, Xie Liangwu, Feng Mingxin and others.

Wang Haoran said to Xie Liangwu, Feng Mingxin and others: "The next series of work on the J-10 will be handed over to you."

Xie Liangwu and others naturally expressed their opinions: "Comrade Haoran can rest assured to do more important things. Leave the test flight and manufacturing of the J-10 to us."

Whether it was Xie Liangwu, Feng Mingxin, Ge Xiaobing and others, they all felt that they had gained a lot in the process of following Wang Haoran in developing the J-10.

Especially for Xie Liangwu, it can be said that his knowledge system has been greatly subverted and then updated.

Previous aircraft did not pay much attention to avionics systems, and Xie Liangwu also had major shortcomings in this regard.

But after developing the J-10, although he did not participate in the development of the avionics system, he still figured out the major components of the entire J-10 during the final assembly process. Because Wang Haoran did not hide anything from him!

Most of the time, Wang Haoran taught Xie Liangwu and others step by step.

Xie Liangwu felt that although Wang Haoran was not his teacher in name, in reality, the knowledge system that Wang Haoran passed on to him was more than that of all his teachers combined.

Xie Liangwu was very grateful for this.

Xifei was also very grateful to Wang Haoran.

In the past, Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation has always been engaged in the production of large aircraft.

If Wang Haoran hadn't handed them a J-10, which seemed likely to become the main fighter of the Air Force, they would never have been able to get such a big project.

Such a large project is likely to be given to Chengfei.

Also because of Wang Haoran, all of Xi'an Aircraft Industry's machinery and equipment have been modernized and upgraded.

Now, they have upgraded their muskets to more advanced ones.

In the past, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Corporation could only operate two or three aircraft a year, which was considered quite good.

Now, after upgrading its equipment, Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation can produce at least two or three large aircraft a month.

It can be said that because of Wang Haoran, Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation is now almost becoming the most powerful aircraft manufacturer in the country.

During lunch, Zhang Yunqiu originally wanted to join Wang Haoran and Zhao Xiansheng's table.

But he was seated at another table.

He could only watch Xie Liangwu chatting and laughing with Wang Haoran and Zhao Xiansheng. He was so jealous that he was beyond words.

When the meal was almost over, Zhang Yunqiu finally came to Zhao Xiansheng's side and said, "Leader, how about you come to inspect my laboratory this afternoon?"

Zhao Xiansheng drank two more glasses of wine and was now a little tipsy.

He smiled and said, "Well! Let's go and have a look!"

"But, Mr. Zhang, if your project doesn't have any special features, I will be rude to you!"

"The national budget is quite tight right now, so we must make the best use of it!"

Zhao Xiansheng went to Zhang Yunqiu's laboratory.

Wang Haoran and Wang Heng, President of Northwestern Polytechnical University, accompanied him.

Xie Liangwu originally wanted to go with them, but Zhang Yunqiu looked unwelcome, so Xie Liangwu tactfully decided not to go.

When he arrived at Zhang Yunqiu's laboratory, Wang Haoran was actually still very interested in the J-8.

In the previous life, the J-8 also produced a prototype, and two or three of them were produced.

However, due to too many problems, the Air Force looked down on it and it was ultimately not equipped to the troops in large quantities.

But even so, it is the first third-generation fighter jet of Dragon Country in the true sense.

In the past, it was not until the mid-80s that it was assembled. It was almost a patchwork of various countries. The radar, engine, etc. were not domestically produced.

There are also significant problems with the aircraft's fuselage structure.

Zhang Yunqiu has drawn all the design drawings of the J-8 in his laboratory, and he even built a scaled-down prototype.

In order to persuade Zhao Xiansheng to continue to support the J-8 project, Zhang Yunqiu tried his best and talked about various design technical parameters in a very exaggerated way.

At first, Zhao Xiansheng listened very carefully, but he soon realized that a lot of what Zhang Yunqiu said was nonsense.
