Chapter 321 Navigation Engineer
……
When the news came out, it instantly caused an uproar around the world.
At first, everyone was skeptical, thinking that this was just Yan State bragging about its own "national strength".
"What third-generation fighter? Isn't Yan Country just getting started? Even if it has the J-1, it is at most an entry-level one." Eagle sauce sneered
Pout.
"That's right. We haven't even fully digested the MiG-21 yet, so where do we get the technology to build the Silver Falcon?" The Russian bear sneered.
However, as more and more details were revealed, everyone's attitude began to change quietly.
Clear photos and stunning videos show the elegance of the Silver Falcon to the fullest. The slender and graceful fuselage lines, breathtaking thrust performance, and extremely advanced airborne radar...
All signs indicate that this is a true third-generation fighter!
Sensational news came one after another——
It is said that this "Silver Falcon" fighter has outstanding maneuverability and can even deal with a U-2 reconnaissance aircraft at an altitude of 2 meters!
The news shocked the world.
You know, the U-2 is the trump card of the United States. Even the MiG of the Russian Bear can only look up to its flying height.
Now, the U-2 has been humiliated by the "Silver Falcon" of Yan Country. Doesn't this subvert the entire military structure?
When everyone was still immersed in shock, Yan State’s tough stance was even more surprising.
The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Yan State solemnly stated:
"The Yan government strongly condemns the fact that some countries insisted on sending reconnaissance aircraft to intrude into our airspace without authorization!
We advise the relevant countries to immediately stop such provocative actions. Otherwise, we will not hesitate to take any necessary measures to resolutely defend our national sovereignty.
Including shooting down a reconnaissance plane!"
The words are sonorous and powerful.
For a moment, the Eagle Sauces felt like they were on edge and lost their appetite. They never expected that the "world police" would be threatened and intimidated by a new emerging country like Yan!
But what can they do?
Facing a weapon like the "Silver Falcon", sending the U-2 there would be like sending a sheep into a tiger's mouth!
In order to avoid the "second Powelsky incident", the Eagle Sauces can only choose to swallow their anger and dare not act rashly again.
When other countries saw this scene, they were gloating and secretly cheering.
"Haha, you deserve it! You look down on me on weekdays, now you get a taste of my power!"
"You guys are the 'boss', but now you're speechless after being criticized by Yan Nation?"
Laughter and ridicule were heard one after another. No one sympathized with the Eagle Sauce's plight, but instead applauded.
This diplomatic humiliation has made the Eagle Sauce lose face.
But at the same time, it also made the world look at Yan State with new eyes.
How did a poor and weak country develop such an advanced fighter in such a short period of time?
What unknown secrets are there?
Doubts and speculations flooded in. All kinds of speculations and rumors were rampant.
……
The sudden appearance of the Yan State's "Silver Falcon" fighter jet caused quite a storm in the military community.
Especially in the international arms market, it caused a huge uproar.
Originally, the fighter jet field has been monopolized by the United States and Russia, making it difficult for other countries to get involved.
But now, the joining of Yan State has undoubtedly brought a breath of fresh air.
"I heard that the performance of the 'Silver Falcon' from Yan Country is no less than that of the F-14 and the 'MiG-21. Is this true?" a purchasing country asked tentatively.
"That's not true..." The representative of Yanguo Military Trade Company said with a smile, "Our 'Silver Falcon' is equipped with an active phased array radar, supersonic cruise, and first-class maneuverability. I guarantee you will be satisfied!"
"Great!" The buyer's eyes lit up, "So you mean, this fighter jet will also be sold to foreign countries?"
The Yan Country representative shook his head and said, "'Silver Falcon' is our newest product and will not be exported for the time being."
Seeing that the customer was a little disappointed, he added: "However, if you are interested, we have other good products, such as the 'improved model', which is guaranteed to be of good quality and low price."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes lit up.
Although they failed to buy the "Silver Falcon" they wanted, these "old faces" also attracted them.
You know, these planes have long been extinct in other places.
Now that Yan State has taken it out again, isn't it picking up a huge bargain?
As a result, orders came in one after another.
From Asia, Africa, Latin America to the Middle East, from Southeast Asia to Latin America, there is a steady stream of customers coming here to visit.
The export of arms from Yan State thus began.
A wide variety of weapons and equipment, from airplanes, tanks to artillery.
Although they are not as dazzling as the "Silver Falcon", they quickly captured people's hearts with their unique quality and astonishing price.
In this way, driven by the "Silver Falcon", Yan's arms industry emerged as a new force and shined brightly. The export volume continued to rise, and foreign exchange soared.
Who would have thought that the once unknown Yan State would one day become a powerful force in the arms market and attract the attention of Western powers?
Li Yang looked at all this, a smile of relief appearing on his lips.
Despite his joy, he did not relax at all.
Because he knew that if Yan Country wanted to truly stand tall among the nations of the world, air power alone was far from enough.
We have tanks on land and fighter planes in the sky, but we still lack a weapon to control the sea.
Yes, that is the navy! A strong maritime force is an important guarantee for Yan State to achieve national rejuvenation and safeguard national interests.
But look at the Yan Kingdom Navy today, it is just a bunch of old destroyers and frigates, not even a decent battleship, how can it be responsible for this?
Important task?
Li Yang secretly clenched his fists, his eyes firm.
No, we can't wait any longer, we must develop the navy as soon as possible to make up for this shortcoming!
But the question is, how easy is it?
Building ships, especially large combat ships, is not like building airplanes or tanks, which can be fixed with just one part.
From the overall design to the power system, from shipborne weapons to electronic equipment, every link is intricate and cannot tolerate any carelessness.
More
What's more, Yan State is a "novice" in this field and has no foundation at all.
To rush into battle like this is like "walking barefoot on a knife
Mountain".
But Li Yang insisted on giving it a try!
Because he holds the magical "golden finger" in his hand, he has foresight and pioneering spirit that ordinary people can hardly achieve.
He believed that with the unique "cheater" and his own unremitting efforts, the Yan Kingdom Navy would surely achieve a magnificent transformation.
Soaring into the sky!
Thinking of this, a confident smile appeared on Li Yang's lips.
He strode to the library and began searching for all the information related to ship design.
Marine engineering, ship design, shipborne weapons, shipbuilding technology...monographs and drawings soon filled up his desk.
Li Yang flipped through the book eagerly, his eyes sometimes flickering, sometimes solemn.
Soon, images of advanced warships gradually took shape in his mind.
[Ding, trigger the navigation engineer skill, obtain 30 destroyer design drawings]
Li Yang's eyes lit up when he saw this reminder. What a timely and relevant task!
He nodded secretly and quickened his reading speed.
At the same time, his brain was working rapidly, and he began to conceive the overall design of the destroyer.
The first is tonnage.
Taking into account the needs of future naval battles, this destroyer must have a large enough displacement to carry large-caliber artillery and a variety of missiles.
Li Yang quickly locked his target on the 3500-4000 ton class, which was considered a large destroyer at the time.
Next is the weapon configuration.
As the main force of air combat, this destroyer must have strong anti-aircraft firepower. In addition to traditional naval guns, it must also be equipped with ship-to-air missiles.
Li Yang suddenly had an idea and decided to use a combination of "double 130" artillery + "Haihongqi-1" ship-to-air missiles.
In this way, whether it is short-range self-defense or medium- and long-range interception, it can be handled with ease.
In terms of sea warfare, Li Yang chose 533mm torpedoes and anti-ship missiles.
Large-caliber torpedoes have a long range and great power, and are a powerful weapon for attacking large surface ships; while anti-ship missiles are a powerful weapon for fleet decisive battles.
It requires a powerful radar and fire control system to coordinate with it, so even an aircraft carrier battle group can be easily defeated.
Li Yang has not forgotten to attack Lu.
He immediately equipped the destroyer with multiple "Sea Hawk" cruise missile launchers.
This small cruise missile can accurately strike important land targets hundreds of kilometers away, clearing obstacles for landing operations.
For modern destroyers, advanced electronic equipment is also essential.
In this regard, Li Yang naturally has unique insights.
He decided to use the domestically produced "Sea Radar-381" large phased array radar, and to match it, there is also a domestically produced shipborne weapon control system.
and advanced electronic warfare systems.
The "Sea Radar-381" uses a planar array with a peak power of up to 4 megawatts and a detection range of up to 450 kilometers, which is more than three times that of any shipborne radar of the same period!
The domestically produced "Type 981" shipborne weapon control system integrates missile command, fire control, friend-or-foe identification, and situation display, which is top-notch.
With these two powerful weapons, this destroyer's information advantage will leave its opponents far behind.
As for power, Li Yang chose the domestically produced "high-pressure boiler + steam turbine" combination.
Although this power system has mature technology, its advantages are reliability, durability and high degree of localization.
Most importantly, it can provide sufficient power to ensure that high-power radars and electronic equipment will not "burp".
In this way, after days of hard work, the prototype of a modern destroyer is about to emerge. It combines the advanced features of Western destroyers.
Progress, and unique to Yan country;
It is the pioneer of the navy in the new era, and the solid arm of the "aircraft carrier formation"!
Looking at the streamlined ship and powerful firepower on the blueprint, a hint of pride flashed across Li Yang's face.
He couldn't wait to present this grand blueprint to Liu Ziliang and others, and to the naval generals.
Following a series of system prompts, a large amount of cutting-edge knowledge about ship design flooded into Li Yang's mind.
Not only destroyers, but also cruisers, frigates, and amphibious ships have become clearer in their design details.
