"The Soviets, perverted, there have been two defections in this year." On the bridge of the Kitty Hawk, Colonel Ted Petrobori, the commander of the flying wing, said to Nathan: "The system of the Soviets, It will certainly not last long, and there will be more and more defections in the future."
After finishing his trip in Europe, Nathan returned to the aircraft carrier again. At this time, it had been nearly a month since his last flight.
This holiday was long enough, so long that Nathan almost forgot how to drive the Tomcat. After more than a week of go-around training, he finally continued to drive the Tomcat, taking off and landing from the aircraft carrier, and on this day, he At the flight summary meeting after the go-around, Petropaoli started his long talk.
"What happened?" Nathan was still weird. If you want to talk about defecting, Belianke is one. Is there anything else
"I just received the news that the Soviets’ large-scale anti-submarine ship Vigilance had a rebellion. The deputy captain Sabin took control of the warship and wanted to drive to Kronstadt, where he called on the Soviet people to rise up against the Soviet Union. Tyranny, it’s a pity that he was rebelled in the end. I heard that one of the heroes of the Soviet Union named Andre played a key role in the rebellion. He was blind, but after this stimulation, his eyesight was restored. It's a miracle."
After listening to the introduction, Nathan's brows gradually frowned.
This incident was regarded as a model by the Soviets, and Andrei's deeds were also a great show off, but Nathan knew that it was almost exactly the same as the novel he had read.
Especially, this blind Andre must have been blinded by his own headlights last time, and now, is he alive again
It seems that the battle with him will continue, and fortunately, he is ready.
After he fell into the water, and was rescued, he boarded the warship and found the problem. He wanted to disembark. He was detained and held with the captain. Then, the little hero Ivan crawled out and opened the cell. People rushed out and regained control of the warship.
This action by Sabin failed.
Although the uprising was unsuccessful, it was definitely a stain. The free world in the West commented heavily on this, discussing the corruption of the Soviet system.
Listening to the lively discussions around, Nathan just nodded. How will the follow-up develop? This is what Nathan cares most about.
Now, the answer to the mystery is almost to be revealed, and the chaotic time and space that I traveled through has been thoroughly understood by myself, and this is the world of the Red Soviet Union.
The other point was about his own life experience. Nathan already knew the answer to this life experience, but he didn't dare to think about it.
In the palace that day, Jenny and Emily must have guessed too.
Emily was originally engaged in intelligence, and Jenny was even more confusing. The two of them didn't know if they had analyzed it. In short, they must have seen their bodies and knew that they had the same thing under their feet.
Now, Nathan is no longer willing to think about this. He is an orphan who grew up in an orphanage. This is better, isn't it
The meeting ended in a cheerful atmosphere, and when everyone left, Nathan was stayed.
"Nathan, your report to the navy executives requested that our TF30 engine be replaced with a TF41 engine. Now, this project is progressing smoothly." Petrobori said, "Thanks to your last trip to the UK, now, It is said that the British Navy also wants to order Tomcats. With the British team working together to study engine replacement, progress will definitely be faster."
TF41 is a modification of the Spey engine. It belongs to the generals in the 第子. The most suitable alternative is the existing engine. As long as it is replaced, it will be a lot higher and heavier than the original TF30 engine. Not to mention, at least there is no need to worry about the terrible surging at any time.
"Well, the engine problem should have been solved long ago, what about my other report?" Nathan continued to ask.
In addition to the engine problem, there is another problem, avionics.
The advanced feature of the Tomcat fighter is the combination of its AWG-9 radar and Phoenix, but, unfortunately, the Tomcat fighter that fell into the water lost its radar.
The tomcat that fell into the water was salvaged, and it was finally determined that the loss of the radar was entirely man-made. The Soviets must have a sophisticated deep-water submersible, and they could operate a robotic arm to dismantle the radar and steal the radar. This surprised American experts. However, even shouting is useless, and the Soviets will certainly not admit to stealing.
The loss of the radar caught the U.S. Navy by surprise. Fortunately, Hughes made an emergency modification to avoid the risk of interference by the Soviets. However, it is clear that the upgrade of the avionics system is also imminent.
The AWG-9 radar is very powerful, but when comparing it with the Air Force’s F-15 fighter, Nathan can only say that our radar can see far.
In addition to seeing far, there is really no other advantage, only this one.
Now, since the radar has leaked secrets, it is better to upgrade the radar. After all, the advancement of electronic technology is too fast.
Retaining the high-power transmitter of AWG-9, using digital circuits to improve the processing circuit, increase the signal processing capabilities, and meet the later APG-71 standards, so that the Air Force also realize that they are lagging behind.
However, this report by Nathan was not approved.
"The upgrade of the radar will take some time. As you know, our budget is still limited, and the improvements invested in the engine have exceeded our budget." Petrobori said.
Greedy is not enough, Nathan knows, that can only be so.
"The Soviets have acquired our radar technology, which may greatly improve their airborne radar level. In the future, our threat will become more serious." Nathan said.
This is not alarmist. Nathan certainly knows about the Su-27. If the Soviets obtain these technologies, will they be used to transform the Su-27? If the Su-27 has a flat-panel gap radar, it will definitely be its own rival.
We can only hope that the industrial processing level of the Soviets is insufficient. They want to imitate it, I am afraid it is not so easy.
"Yes, the air environment will be worse in the future. The intelligence department has discovered that the Soviets have improved and updated an interceptor that may also have the ability to kill 100 kilometers away."
The most powerful thing about the Tomcat is the cooperation of radar and Phoenix missiles, which have the ability to kill one hundred kilometers away. If the Soviets want to imitate them, then they are the MiG-31 and R33 missiles
If this is the case, I am not afraid, because the maneuverability of this missile is really low. As long as it turns sideways, it will be unlocked. (End of this chapter)
