"Since there is no problem, let's continue. Everyone knows the situation of air tankers, transport aircraft, etc., and there is no need to waste time. Let's talk about the current military's demand to develop strategic bombers that can adapt to the development needs of the Air Force in the next few decades..." After the military no longer focuses on high-altitude high-speed projects, Liu Yijiu no longer asks tankers, transport aircraft, electronic early warning aircraft, reconnaissance aircraft and other projects to report next to each other.

A lot of time wasted on the high-altitude high-speed fighter project.

The military may not think it is important, at least they have understood some unknown technologies in the Ninth Academy.

Even now that Liu Yijiu has returned part of the rights to the military, the military still cannot intervene in many things.

"There is indeed not much time to introduce other things. Everyone knows the situation. Let's talk about the situation of the strategic bomber." Military people naturally don't spend too much time on projects they understand.

Otherwise, if they don’t know the strategic bomber project, they will naturally not be able to explain it when they go back.

In the entire large conference room, all of them were aircraft-related design and manufacturing units, and no one expressed any dissatisfaction.

The strategic bomber project was originally mainly Qin Fei's H-6, and has been performing performance improvement designs. Later, the Ninth Academy got the Tu-22M2 and they formed a team that copied the Tu-22M. The final technical results took 13 years to transform them into the production capacity of the H-20.

Of course, the fighter jet of H-20 is essentially still a Tu-22M, but it has undergone some technical upgrades, improved avionics system, and added air refueling devices, and basically no other changes.

Liu Yijiu got back a lot of medium-range strategic bombers, so there was no need to produce them. It only needs to be transformed into a H-20.

The H-20's improvement potential is not very great. Liu Yijiu stopped it directly. He did not stop it, and the Management Committee of the Ninth Academy will not continue to approve research funds.

Now that a new strategic bomber project has been launched, domestic capable aircraft design units naturally hope to participate. In order to share R&D funds and allow the military to invest in it, Liu Yijiu also agreed to let the military's 172 Factory and Qinfei 122 Factory under the military participate in it. Their funds will be financed by the military according to the different projects undertaken.

If this project had not been planned to be completed in 30 years or even longer from the beginning, Liu Yijiu would never have given up so much.

Ha Fei and Qin Fei's people also participated in this meeting.

No matter how they fight, they will never be able to gain control of the project.

"The new war bombing is related to the future development of the Air Force. There are currently two types of bomber technologies in China. On the one hand, it is the H-6. This bomber imitated by the Tu-16 has short legs, few bullets, and is not far away. At the same time, it does not have the supporting precision strike capabilities..." People from the Air Force will first introduce the current performance defects of domestic bombers. "Although the H-20 has a much longer range, it is the same, but the penetration defense capability is much stronger than the H-6..."

"In our vision, the new strategic bomber should have a range of at least more than 8,000 kilometers, and the cruise missile can reach a combat radius of 6,000 or even 7,000 kilometers... It must have supersonic penetration capabilities, subsonic cruise capabilities, and reserve space for upgrading avionic systems..."

The military has put forward a series of conditions.

Most people know these conditions.

Here, I just gave a brief introduction. As for the specific design plan, it depends on the project party's ideas.

"Old Zhao, the current improvement and design work of the H-20 project requires much less manpower, mainly to enable it to have the ability to launch advanced cruise missiles such as Sun Chi missiles. Most of your project teams have come to this project..." Liu Yijiu saw Zhao Bingyi with anticipation and made arrangements in front of everyone.

His purpose was to let Zhao Bingyi lead the design of this fighter jet.

Zhao Bingyi has outstanding technical skills, but is not good at speaking.

Liu Yijiu proposed this in front of everyone, just to tell everyone that I would recognize him. If anyone objected, he would not participate.

Zhao Bingyi was a little excited when Liu Yijiu supported him so much.

The medium-range strategic bomber like Tu-22M was successfully imitated. They thought that the country would be equipped on a large scale. Even if it was behind, it was much higher than the H-6 in terms of range, bomb load, radar detection distance, etc. The result was that the military did not produce it.

If they don’t produce the H-20, they will not be able to recover their research investment over the years.

Zhao Bingyi didn’t have much confidence in them continuing this project. How could Liu Yijiu’s support here not make him excited?

"As for the new strategic bomber, we have an idea here, which is to use the technology accumulated by the H-20 and some of the technologies on the wreckage of the F-117 fighter jet we obtained from Iraq to comprehensively design a strategic bomber that will not fall behind in the next fifty years. Of course, this is also recognized by the military..." Liu Yijiu proposed the design positioning of the strategic bomber.

No one questioned this because the military people are here.

No one thinks this is impossible.

The mere feature of invisibility requires many years of hard work.

Besides, no one in the military objected.

"Director Liu, have you already had specific design ideas? Let's talk about it first." The people in the Air Force Department were a little depressed. It took thirty years to design a fighter jet that was not behind for fifty years. In fact, it can only be used after thirty years.

Now they can't use it, at least they have to understand it first.

"We have discussed the design ideas in this area before. In the future war situation, strategic bombers, due to their long enough range, it is difficult for fighter jets to escort them when performing combat missions, so that bombers have the combat capabilities of fighter jets. This is not reliable. Because the range requirements and bomb load requirements we proposed require our strategic bombers to have a huge size, and the design ideas of fighter jets will naturally be eliminated. Therefore, the first point is that we need to consider stealth ability and stronger penetration ability..." Liu Yijiu introduced his previous ideas for communicating with the military.

Most of the people here are experts, and they naturally know that stealth bombers have become the trend now.

Of course, not everyone is smart.

A fat leader of Hafei raised questions, "The US F-117 is the world's first stealth bomber, but it is almost wiped out under Baghdad's air defense system. Is stealth really that important in the future battlefield?"

He naturally had selfish intentions to raise this question.

Ha Fei used a bulk imported from the Soviet Union to assemble the first H6 in China. Like Qin Fei, they have a complete set of H6 technical drawings and materials. According to Liu Yijiu's mention, the technology they have in their hands is basically impossible to use on new projects, which will make them participate in very few projects.

How can I get what I want?

"Since you know that the F-117 is the world's first stealth bomber, you must also know that the stealth performance of the F-117 is not perfect. If the first imperfect technology is directly given up because of obstacles? Could it be that it is possible to use the H-6 to upgrade to achieve the technical indicators we need?" Liu Yijiu was a little rude. "Although the new project was named the H-6K, it has absolutely nothing to do with the H-6. Just like the Soviet Union's Tu-22 Eyebrow and their T-22M Backfire Bombers..."

Liu Yijiu's counterattack made Ha Fei's leader very embarrassed.

Before coming, Harbin Flying Management held a meeting and asked to strive for as many projects as possible in this project.

Everyone knows that it is not a joke to spend thirty years building a strategic bomber, but a very serious matter.

The military hopes to use 30 years to design this fighter and make various technical reserves while building a huge system to support the production and design of strategic bombers in China. This is the largest investment and the biggest cost of this project.

Whoever can win more design projects will be qualified to build more supporting facilities for projects.

Among domestic aircraft industry companies, Hafei has become a bit inequality in recent years.

"What's more, even if H-6 makes technical improvements, can it reach the technical level of Tu-160?" Liu Yijiu asked everyone.

Everyone shook their heads.

The picture-160 is more advanced than the H-6 technical prototype picture-16.

"Director Liu, since we must ensure that we will not fall behind in the next fifty years and have stealth ability, this will cause some conflict with flight performance..." Zhao Bingyi also thought about the development after the H-20. Even their team had conducted arguments. "To pursue supersonic flight performance, we must choose a normal aerodynamic layout like the Soviet Tu-160, abdomen air intake, medium swept wings, and large edge strips. This must conflict with the design air intake for stealth performance..."

"It's true, so this requires the design technical team to consider!" Liu Yijiu nodded and kicked the ball back directly.

Zhao Bingyi was a little stunned.

He originally thought that Liu Yijiu had a plan!

"Don't ask me about these questions now, because I am not an aircraft designer. I only propose the results we want. As for how to achieve this result, it is the tasks of each team in the next thirty years." Liu Yijiu did not give anyone the opportunity to question himself at the venue.

After all, if everyone explains such a project, I don’t know how long it will take.

Could it be that I can come up with a design plan for H-6K directly?

If Liu Yijiu had this thing, he would have been deliberately trying to build a counterfire bomber from the Soviet Union and a Tu-160 bomber?

He is not an aircraft designer, and even because he was responsible for the design of space orbital weapons, his understanding of aerospace far exceeds that of the aviation field.

"About this strategic bomber, the military hopes to have two options for plug-in weapon capabilities and built-in weapon capabilities. When performing short-range tasks, external weapons can be plugged in; when performing long-range tasks, weapons and ammunition are built-in, thereby increasing the comprehensive utilization rate of our strategic bomber. Of course, the retention of external points can be configured to configure external auxiliary fuel tanks when we perform long-range tasks, so that more fuel can be carried..." This is the idea of ​​the rear-mounted headquarters for using fighter jets.

Although it is a strategic bomber, it also hopes to be able to perform medium and short-range tasks.

When equipped with cruise missiles, they are completely used to strike outside the defense zone, which does not require stealth performance at all.

When conducting precise bombing in the defense zone, this requires extremely excellent penetration ability and stealth ability in the process of flying over the target.

When Baghdad flew into Baghdad with F-117, he didn't know that this thing was coming.

The Americans finally stumbled Baghdad with nuclear warheads and destroyed Baghdad's air defense system. It is estimated that they have not found how the Iraqis discovered their stealth bombers.

If Liu Yijiu doesn't open his gold finger, it's impossible for the F-117 to have problems, let alone almost all the troops are wiped out. China will at least have to wait until the United States bombs Yugoslavia before it can obtain the earliest stealth fighter technology of the United States.

"Chief, the strategic bomber itself is designed for strategic tasks. At the same time, its main function is deterrence and a part of the trinity nuclear strike capability. Medium and short-range tasks are not used at all..." Zhao Bingyi frowned and refuted the military's conditions.

Everyone smiled bitterly.

If this is done, why do you need to divide the distance and the nearest?

"You don't understand this. The military means that external devices are mainly used to carry secondary fuel tanks or cruise missiles, so that the first wave of strikes can be carried out before entering the enemy's defense zone. After launching the missile, continue to penetrate into the defense zone, thereby accurately bombing the target. In this way, the safety of our fighter jets can be increased." This was originally proposed by Liu Yijiu.

Military technology, defense and attack, these are shields and spears, both sides are constantly developing in an entanglement manner.

No invisible technology can be completely invisible, and it will be detected.

So, from the beginning, Liu Yijiu never thought of truly being completely invisible.

The military is thinking that the technical difficulty is too high and the cost of a single frame is too high.

Having some stealth performance is enough.

The US B-2 stealth bomber, including R&D funds, exceeds US$2 billion! How can the Chinese Air Force afford it?
Chapter completed!
