Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 259: The J- was discovered by the Eagle Sauce! (Subscribe)
Although we have taken the most stringent confidentiality measures for the test flight of the J-8, when such a large aircraft flies in the sky frequently, there is always a chance that it will be discovered.

After all, in this era of rapid development of aerospace technology, since the Russian Bear launched its first artificial satellite three years ago, the United States has not been outdone. It has not only launched its own artificial satellite, but also developed satellites for various purposes in Russia.

Positioning satellites, meteorological satellites, reconnaissance satellites, and communications satellites are emerging in endlessly.

Although we cannot yet conduct comprehensive, real-time, all-weather monitoring of the world without blind spots like in later generations, there will always be times when a blind cat catches a dead mouse.

With the rapid development of our science and technology industry, the United States has also strengthened its monitoring of us.

Especially after our cooperation with Gaul, the Eagle Sauce has increased its monitoring of our coastal shipyards.

After all, they knew too well what technologies they had provided to the Gauls before.

The Gallic rooster is fine, although they have a strong foundation, but because of the land area and population, the development potential is a flaw.

Even if they use those technologies to create a nuclear-armed black fish, it will not have much impact on the current international situation, and at most they can only protect themselves.

Besides, no matter what the Gauls do, they are at least in the same camp as the Eagles, and the two sides cannot be so hostile to each other. Now the Gauls are at most just having a little temper.

But we are different! The two sides had fought with knives before, and the fight was a bloody mess.

If we can catch up quickly by leveraging the Gallic rooster's century-long technological accumulation, it will not be a small problem for the Eagle Sauce.

Unfortunately, no matter how the Eagle Sauce persuades them, the Gallic chickens still do their own thing and ignore the Eagle Sauce's advice and threats.

There is no way, because the Gallic chickens were hurt so badly by the Eagle Sauce in the past few years, and a hundred years of accumulation were lost in one day!

With persuasion failing, the Eagle Sauce can only continue to increase its surveillance of us. Since they can't stop us, they'd better let them know what we have so that they can at least take precautions in advance.

On the coast, the Eagle Sauce can also make use of the bases around us and let Madam Jiaolong conduct frequent reconnaissance.

But for the inland areas of the Northwest, the United States can only let their satellites come over to take a look from time to time.

At the end of the 60s, a US reconnaissance satellite happened to be passing over our northwest region and happened to encounter the J- fighter jet that was testing in that area.

The satellite flashed a few times and then floated over the area as usual.

When the satellite flew over our country and arrived above a base in the United States, a Jiaolong Lady, which had been prepared long ago, was launched at the airport and then soared into the sky.

After Mrs. Jiaolong took off and circled nearby for a few times, a black dot suddenly fell from the sky.

After seeing the black spot, the American pilot immediately called the base.

"Blackbird calling the nest! Found the candy Santa dropped, coordinates ****!"

"Nest received! Blackbird continues to monitor Candy!"

After receiving the order, Mrs. Jiaolong hovered above the black spot. Just as the black spot approached the ground, a parachute opened above the black spot. Then the black spot's landing speed slowed down, and it floated towards the ground.

"Candy is coming soon, please make sure the children receive it!"

"understand!"

At this time, several military vehicles drove out of the base quickly and sped towards the location reported by the driver before.

After arriving at the location, many soldiers rushed out of military vehicles and surrounded the area.

Mrs. Jiaolong saw that the ground was ready to receive the aircraft, so she shook her wings and flew directly towards our coastal area.

"Finally I got the candy. I don't know where the candies went the last few times."

The American soldiers on the ground looked up at the parachutes in the air and couldn't help but complain.

"We spent so much money, but in the end we only got a roll of film. Why not just send Mrs. Jiaolong to fly there?"

"Sir, I'm afraid those young men in the Air Force are unwilling to fly so far. After all, they need to cross the long airspace of that country. They don't want to be shot down like a bird."

"Now, even if they are just asked to fly down the coast, they are not very happy."

Another American soldier couldn't help but echo his superiors' complaints after hearing them.

At this time, the American military had not yet evolved into its ultimate form in the future. Because it had to compete with the Russian bear, it could not afford to buy coffee cups that cost tens of thousands of dollars, so every dollar of funding had to be carefully calculated.

In order to obtain intelligence about us, the Eagle Sauce not only dispatched Mrs. Jiaolong to conduct continuous reconnaissance in coastal areas, but also launched several satellites to monitor our inland areas.

With the advancement of our missile technology and radar computer technology, we can still pose a certain threat to Mrs. Jiaolong when facing it. This is also the reason why Mrs. Jiaolong's pilots are increasingly reluctant to conduct reconnaissance missions against us.

However, computer and communication technologies are not very developed at present, and it is not possible to receive satellite image data in real time on the ground as in later generations. It can only be done by dropping film from high altitude.

But there are too many factors that affect high-altitude delivery, so intelligence loss often occurs.

And now this film is also the first data received by the United States from satellites about us.

The cost of satellite reconnaissance is now much higher than that of reconnaissance aircraft. Not to mention the problem of frequent data loss, once the film on the satellite is used up, the satellite will be scrapped, which is a headache for the Americans.

This is also the reason why these American hawks are complaining. After all, the cost of launching a satellite is almost enough to build a Mrs. Jiaolong.

When the film landed, the American soldier threw down his half-smoked cigarette and shouted, "Protect the candy and send it back to the base immediately. We spent tens of millions to buy this candy."

After the rolls of film were successfully received and escorted back to the base, the technicians immediately began developing the rolls.

As the photos were developed one by one, the head of the base could not help but scream in surprise as he looked at the strange-looking plane flying in the sky.

After the technical staff processed and compared these data, they quickly obtained the general information about the J-8.

"Sir, it's obvious that without the outside world noticing, that country has developed a groundbreaking fighter." "This fighter can not only meet the requirements of double two-line flight, but also has better maneuverability than all the fighters of other countries now!"

After hearing the conclusion drawn by the technicians, the base officer couldn't help but cover his head with his hands and asked in disbelief: "Are you sure this is true?"

"Yes, sir!" the technician said affirmatively, "Please do not doubt my professionalism!"

"Then do you know what this means?"

"Of course I know. This means that all of our current aircraft will become sitting ducks in front of this fighter! Including Madam Jiaolong."

"In the future, Madam Jiaolong will not only have to face their increasingly advanced anti-aircraft missiles, but also this monster. I hope the guys in our air force can handle it, right?"

The technician certainly knows what it will mean to the Americans once our J-8 is equipped, but what does this have to do with a small technician like him?
The ones who should be anxious are the Air Force and those upper-level gentlemen.

"Shit! Do these Gallic bastards know what they have done?"

Although these have little to do with the technicians, they have a lot to do with him as the person in charge of the base.

Because their base is equipped with a group of Lady Dragons, who are specifically responsible for monitoring the coastal areas of that country.

Once they are equipped with that type of fighter, all the reconnaissance aircraft in their base will become sitting ducks.

"Those Gallic chickens should not be alive in this world. They should all be sent to the guillotine like their King XVI was!"

"They are now undermining the foundations of Western civilization. They have seriously betrayed their own race and helped others make knives to kill us."

"Hurry up and notify the planes that are still performing reconnaissance missions to come back. Before we have more advanced aircraft, we will not send our boys to carry out this mission that will lead to no return."

"Also, send these photos back to China immediately and make our stance clear!"

"Yes! Sir!"

When the United States received the photos taken by satellites and the analysis of the person in charge of the base, these photos immediately caused a huge sensation in the United States!
"There is no doubt that if they succeed in developing this fighter, it means that all other fighters will be eliminated overnight, just like the steel battleships eliminated the wooden sailing ships and the dreadnoughts eliminated the other battleships."

"Fortunately, we discovered it early. Their fighter jet is still in the prototype test flight stage, so we are not too far behind."

“So we still have a chance to catch up with this trend.”

After listening to the expert's analysis, the newly appointed Eagle Sauce Commander asked solemnly: "With our current technical conditions, if we start researching new aircraft now, how long will it take?"

"That depends on the capabilities of our airline!" The expert shrugged and said helplessly.

After hearing what the expert said, the young man also felt a headache.

After all, everyone knows their own business. It is better to expect God to show up and punish them than to expect the major airlines to work together and develop their new aircraft as soon as possible.

Then the young master asked the military general: "If our already tested Phantom faces this fighter, what are the chances of winning?"

Hearing the young master's childish question, all the military generals attending the meeting were furious and couldn't help but complain in their hearts: "This guy is born good and handsome, but the rest are all idiots!"

Although the Phantom can be considered a dual-two heavy fighter, it is only okay if you ask it to fly straight forward and conduct high-altitude combat. However, other fighters can not only fly at dual altitudes, but also perform flexible tactical maneuvers at high speeds. There is no comparison at all, right?
Seeing the silent military general, the young man realized that he had asked a stupid question.

And from their expressions, we can guess that the Phantom not only has no chance of winning against the fighter plane in the photo, but the gap is also quite large.

"Then tell me, is it necessary for our ghosts to continue developing equipment?"

Putting aside the embarrassing question just now, the young master asked solemnly.

"We can now use the Phantom as a transitional fighter, so we need to continue researching it."

This time the military general did not remain silent and spoke quickly.

There is no other way. If I really let this stubborn young man cancel the order for the Goblin project, I am afraid that before long, not only this young man, but also myself will have some crazy ideas, right?
After all, this young man dares to challenge the Federal Reserve, and no one dares to bet that he will really lose his temper and offend those aviation giants again.

"Okay then!" The young man also knew that it was impossible to get the military to give up on the ghosts, so he didn't insist.

"However, our new fighter jet project cannot be delayed any further. We will immediately invite bids from major airlines. The performance of the fighter jet will be compared with the fighter jet in the photo."

"Yes! Your Excellency!"

"By the way, let the airline that is researching the Valkyrie stop that project! Others have noticed that with the development of air defense missile technology, there is no way out for high altitude and high speed. There is no need for us to continue to spend huge amounts of money on the Valkyrie project!"

This time the military generals did not continue to object. After all, the Valkyrie project had only just begun research and the cost was not too high, so it was only right to stop the loss in time.

Unlike the ghosts before, they are almost ready for production. If you dare not accept it, believe it or not, they will directly make a hole in your head.

Yang Ningxi didn't know at this time that the appearance of the J-8 was inadvertently discovered by the Eagle Sauce, which allowed the Eagle Sauce to embark on the right path in fighter jets in advance.

After several months of hard work, the Aviation Research Institute finally produced the second prototype of the new J-60 with canard wings at the end of .

Taking into account the complex geographical environment of our country, the J-8 could not fully test its performance under various climatic conditions by testing it only in the northwest. Therefore, the Aviation Research Institute was ordered to produce two more improved prototypes, which would be shipped to the southwest and southeast regions respectively.

"Director Yang, there have been many Gallic people around our institute recently. The higher-ups speculated that our new fighter jets have been known to other countries, so they asked our institute to keep it confidential."

Just after the first improved J-8 prototype was transferred to the northwest, Director Zhao hurried over and said with a serious face.

"Once you know, you know. Didn't we expect this a long time ago?"

As for the confidentiality of the J-8 project, although we have done our best to keep it confidential, there is no other way. We can defend against detection on the ground, but we cannot defend against detection from space!

The higher-ups also understand this situation, so the confidentiality requirement for the J-8 project is that it would be best if no one else could discover it. But if you discover it in outer space, you can look at it however you like.

But if you want to obtain core technology through other means, there are only two words: No way!
