Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Story of the Chaebol

At present, the only country in the world that is truly capable of mass-producing third-generation fighter jets is South China.

Although the United States and Russia started developing new fighter jets very early, many of the technologies used in third-generation fighter jets need to be developed now. Therefore, even now, the third-generation fighter jets of these two countries are still nowhere to be seen.

According to data collected by the domestic intelligence agency, the development progress of the third-generation fighter jets of the U.S. and Russia is no more than 70%. The key is that the two countries are still tripping each other up, and there is also the "troublemaker" Nanhua adding fuel to the fire.

In this time and space, it is definitely a question whether the two countries can be equipped with third-generation fighter jets in the early 70s like Sun Tong did in his previous life.

"It's worthy of being a third-generation fighter. It looks beautiful."

The aircraft that Longguo is currently equipped with are still made by other countries, although Longguo now has the ability to produce its own aircraft.

However, Longguo's current production is not enough for the air force. In addition, most of the country's funds have to be used for economic construction, so Longguo can only use some old aircraft to maintain the domestic air force.

What is the most advanced aircraft in Longguo today? Naturally, it is the SUN-35 that Nanhua half-sold and half-given to Longguo. To put it bluntly, this aircraft is a modified version of the J-.

Because this aircraft was originally developed by Longguo engineers based on the Russian MiG-21, Longguo is quite adept at copying the SUN-35.

Currently, there are 35 SUN-35 fighters and J- fighters that imitate the SUN- in Longguo.

If this strength is placed in front of Nanhua, it is definitely not enough.

However, if we look at it internationally, the only countries whose air forces can be stronger than that of the Dragon Country are probably the Ugly Country, the Bear Country and the Hans Country.

As far as the current international situation is concerned, South China is undoubtedly the world's number one power, but as the boss, South China has no intention of continuing to expand its territory, so it has always been hiding behind the scenes as a competent sixth person.

After Nanhua, whether it is the Ugly Country, the Russian Bear or Hans, they are all qualified to compete for the second place.

"Sir, my father has already given instructions before I left. If Longguo is interested in this Jinwu fighter, then we in Nanhua can open up the sales restrictions on this fighter to Longguo. However, there is one thing I want to make clear to you in advance. The Jinwu fighter we sell is not the current equipment of the Air Force, but a modified version that has been castrated."

Make money, don't shiver.

Rather than waiting for other countries to grab this market in the future, Nanhua might as well take the initiative to open up this market.

At present, Nanhua can take the lead in selling third-generation fighter jets to Longguo and Hans. In a few years, Nanhua will be able to take the castrated version to the international market to win orders.

Nanhua can definitely learn from how Sun Tong became so beautiful in his previous life.

"You're actually willing to sell third-generation fighter jets?"

Sun Jingwen's words shocked the Longguo delegation. At this time, the only thought in their minds was, "It's worthy of being a capitalist country. They dare to sell anything for money!"

"Of course. In fact, we have already started upgrading the Jinwu fighters in our country. The performance of the upgraded Jinwu fighters will be 30% higher than the original ones. The castrated versions we sell are worse than the original ones. Isn't the gap obvious? So we don't think the castrated versions we export will put pressure on our national defense."

"I see."

What Sun Jingwen said just now was actually reserved. Nanhua did not upgrade the SUN-58. In fact, Nanhua had already developed the fourth-generation fighter as early as 63. Currently, the three major domestic companies of Nanhua have developed four fourth-generation aircraft according to the knowledge of the Ministry of National Defense. Among them, SUN-63 and SUN-65 were all developed by SUN's design team.

Because Sun Tong had come up with the design plan for the fourth-generation aircraft more than 63 years ago, both aircraft have prototypes in the parallel universe. The S15 is a modified version of the F58E. Because the appearance of the aircraft is quite different from the S58 in this world, the S63 number was not continued to be used, but was replaced by the S65 number. As for the prototype of the S18, it is naturally the famous F Super Hornet.

In addition to the two aircraft mentioned above, Nanhua’s other two fourth-generation aircraft are numbered SUN-66 and SUN-66B.

These two aircraft actually have nothing to do with SUN company, but Nanhua has been using SUN as the aircraft number for many years, and everyone is used to it, so when determining the models of these two fighter jets, they still followed the previous habit.

The design prototypes of these two aircraft are the Soviet Union's Su-35 and Su-47.

Some people may ask, isn't the Su-47 a fifth-generation aircraft? Why did its imitation aircraft become a fourth-generation aircraft?

There are many reasons for this result. The most critical one is that the S66B imitated by Nanhua does not have the most important stealth performance of the fifth-generation aircraft. In addition, the Su-47 aircraft was not suitable for the air combat needs of the new era when it was originally designed, so it is not appropriate to put it in the ranks of the fifth-generation aircraft. Therefore, Sun Tongcai counted it as a fourth-generation aircraft.

In fact, with South China's current air force strength, after having these aircraft, South China does not need to worry too much about the air force in the next 30 years.

However, even so, Nanhua has not given up the research and development of real stealth aircraft.

However, there is no need to be too anxious about this matter for South China now. After all, the Air Force is already ahead enough. Next, the South China Air Force can focus on the development of other types of aircraft.
