"Do you know how much energy and time the comrades from the Second Hospital of this project have spent?"

Li Mingshan looked at Xie Kai with a dark face.

No matter how many reasons are used, they are all for poaching people.

Hongqi Group is also engaged in medium- and long-range air defense missile projects, based on the achievements obtained from the counterattack series of missiles.

"Hongqi-9 was developed in 1980. So far, it has begun to produce and assemble the sample bomb before the test launch. The Second Hospital is responsible for the overall design, and other factories are responsible for the missile body design, engine, radar guidance system, etc. This is a big public relations for almost all the elite units of the entire national aerospace system..."

Xie Kai looked at Li Mingshan with a calm expression.

He naturally knew what Hongqi-9 was in the country.

In the domestic military technology system, aerospace technology is the strongest.

But even if it is the strongest, there is still a big gap compared to internationally.

When there are no powerful fighter jets in the country to defend the Republic's airspace, we can only hope for air defense missiles.

And this part is a shortcoming.

The series of anti-missile missiles were finally dismounted, but the Hongqi-9 began to be developed at that time.

Originally, the country has always had the idea of ​​artillery, so the veteran generals naturally hope that all weapons and equipment will be equipped for the army.

In modern warfare, air supremacy is particularly important.

Without air supremacy, no matter how powerful the army is, it can only become a target for enemy air force bombing.

The People's Liberation Army Air Force happens to have no advanced fighter jets that can adequately guarantee air supremacy. Under such circumstances, the domestic military's hopes for air defense missiles such as the Hongqi-9 can be imagined.

"You understand that this is the first third-generation air defense missile in China. It can not only meet domestic air defense needs and increase national air defense capabilities, but also accumulate experience and basic projects for the development of more advanced surface-to-air missiles. We can support other things, but there is no need to discuss this matter."

Li Mingshan's tone was extremely stern.

He always believed that the expansion of Hongqi Group was too fast.

Now we all put our hands into these top key projects, so we must not.

"Xie Kai, didn't you say how many sets have you made? How many sets? If there are many, we can first disassemble one for research and provide it to the Blue Army air defense forces for combat tests..."

Zheng Yuzheng saw that Li Mingshan and others were worried that Xie Kai was taking the opportunity to poach the Second Hospital and other units' technical talents in the Red Flag-9 air defense missiles. In order to change the topic, he directly asked Xie Kai how many S-300Vs he had made.

The Hongqi-9 has not yet produced sample bombs for testing, but several sets of S-300V have been obtained.

If there are a large number, they can equip the troops, and their voices will be much higher.

At least, what Zheng Yucheng understands is that Xie Kai is preparing to take this opportunity to get more people from the aerospace system.

The 404 base is nothing but the only one who is in charge.

"There is only one S-300V air defense missile battalion in Moldova that is conducting combat tests. There are four combat units and 16 launch systems. At present, we can get 2 combat systems and 8 launch units, which can equip half a battalion." Xie Kai sighed.

The number is a little short after all.

Even if all 16 sets of S-300V launch units can be purchased from the 14th Army in Moldova, together with spare bombs, there are a total of 192, and the number is still small.

China's territory is too large, and there are too many places that require advanced air defense missile defense.

One battalion is not enough, let alone half a battalion.

"This number is indeed too small. A battalion is not enough to be equipped, and combat tests cannot be carried out. It can only be equipped for the Blue Army."

Long Yaohua was obviously relieved.

In the case of 404, they would dismantle at least one launch unit for research.

Currently, the technical conditions of the 404 medium and long-range air defense missiles are quite different.

If there are many, it is likely to affect the prospects of the Hongqi-9, the first third-generation regional air defense missile independently developed in China.

Many people don't want to invest too much.

Since the formal development began in 1980, the manpower and material resources consumed by Hongqi-9 are no less than the No. 10 Project.

As the results are coming, a strong unit like 404 has introduced S-300V, a world-class long-range air defense missile, which is of advanced level, and it is definitely impossible not to invest in research and development.

With a small number, the problem is not that big.

At least, I won't equip it first and then copy it.

"Give it to the Blue Army?" Situ Lei, who had never said anything and had no presence before he even spoke, looked at Long Yaohua dissatisfiedly, "This kind of world-class long-range air defense missile should be given to the air defense force, not the Blue Army, which has not had much effect so far..."

As a boss from the General Staff, he naturally feels that it is meaningless to just give it to the Blue Army.

The Blue Army is a force that exists as an offensive.

Used to test the combat effectiveness of the Red Army.

After the construction of the Blue Army troops is completed, as long as the opportunity is right, the Blue Army will be allowed to exercise with the elite troops of each military region to test the shortcomings in domestic troops construction.

Until now, the Blue Army has spent a lot of money every year, but has not completed construction.

This army is already the top equipment in the country.

The military bosses are already very dissatisfied with the fact that this army consumes too much money every year.

The funds consumed by a brigade in a year are almost equivalent to those of three full-time A-level divisions.

For the military bosses, they would rather raise three fully armored divisions than a Blue Army brigade.

In particular, with the advancement of construction, the demand for funding for this Blue Army brigade is far higher than that of the three A-type divisions.

Satellite systems, various air defense missiles, the most advanced F-14, Su-27, Super-7A, Super-7B, and even the Blackhawk helicopters originally introduced from the United States...

The ground artillery units are equipped with self-propelled artillery and rocket launchers of various ranges.

The armored troops are equipped with the most advanced 359-3 tanks in China. The armored infantry that cooperates with the tank troops are all equipped with the same performance as the prototype 63 armored personnel carriers. They have no similarities with the prototype 63 armored personnel carriers.

This kind of armored vehicle is completely modularly produced.

Weapon modules can be selected according to the mission.

Especially the main combat weapons, from 12.7mm high-level dual-purpose heavy machine guns to 63mm caliber automatic guns, all of which are selecting sequences...

Strength, very strong.

Even ordinary infantry are special combat units.

For such a unit, the National Defense Science and Technology Commission still recommends that the most advanced air defense missiles be equipped with them.

This even made the bosses of the General Staff unbearable.

With such equipment, which domestic force is the opponent?

"Indeed, from the beginning, the procurement was to equip the Blue Army's air defense forces. Although the Blue Army was equipped with Fei Shield-359, in the armored infantry, it even equipped with avant-2 individual air defense missiles in each combat squad. In terms of medium and long-range air defense capabilities, the system was unable to be constructed because there was no suitable equipment..."

Xie Kai obviously saw Situ Lei's dissatisfaction.

The Blue Army must be so strong that it makes people desperate that the Red Army troops can know that they do not even have the power to fight back in front of enemies with the advantage of technological generation.

"Xie Kai, don't you think that the equipment of this army has surpassed the domestic active service too much, and there is no reference for reference at all? With the current funding of our army, we can build a brigade every year..." Situ Lei looked at Xie Kai with a painful face.

This kid is not in charge of the family and doesn’t know that the food, food, oil and salt are expensive.

If a unit like the Blue Army Brigade is built, it will make the bosses of the General Staff feel extremely painful.

Usually, whenever I mention this army, I will grit my teeth.

The heads of major military regions are very dissatisfied with this force. Who made this force squeeze too much money every year?

The military expenditure is already small, and the Blue Army has enough bullets, artillery bullets, and even missiles, which have to be fired dozens of rounds a year.

A military region has no funds for testing dozens of missiles in a year.

Xie Kai naturally knew the current attitude of senior military leaders towards the Blue Army.

The construction funds are just expanded from the beginning to a mixed brigade based on a regiment, and the construction has not been completely completed so far.

But this army has consumed more than two billion US dollars of equipment.

Even the satellite systems currently used by the 404 space cooperation are only used by the Blue Army Brigade.

It is unknown how much money will be needed in the future.

"The chief, the Blue Army Brigade, does not have to be the standard for domestic troops construction. Since it is simulated by the Blue Army, since it is mainly attacking, it must simulate the most powerful enemy. Only in this way can we test where the domestic troops are lacking. As long as the satellite system is built, we can start to compete with the elite troops of various military regions. I can guarantee that no unit will be an opponent of the Blue Army..."

Xie Kai is very confident in the Blues.

The equipment of this army is actually quite different from the most advanced in the world.

However, the completeness of equipment is basically no brigade in the world that can be compared.

Xie Kai was determined to promote the construction and development of the Blue Army. At that time, the military boss also had great expectations for this force, but until now, there was no exercise.

For nothing else, it is because the command system has not been fully established.

"You have invested tens of billions of dollars to build a brigade. Which country can afford such a force?" Tang Chengjun, the Technical Director of the General Staff, snorted coldly.

He always believed that the big guys were fooled by Xie Kai.

Otherwise, how could it be that the Blue Army would be built at such a huge price?

A unit has invested tens of billions of dollars, but has not yet completed construction, just like a bottomless pit.

"Chief, this 10 billion yuan of funds has indeed been invested. However, it is not entirely for the investment of the Blue Army. The Blue Army is not only a whetstone for testing domestic troops, but also a force to explore future combat modes. Various infrastructure should be the entire army, not only this force is used. The Gulf War tells us that relying on quantity and not much use, the future development of war trends will become more complicated..."

Xie Kai was very serious, his face full of seriousness.

He is not kidding.

The Blue Army, from the very beginning, has been built for this purpose.
Chapter completed!
