"Very good."
Jiang Li perked up after hearing this.
The Dragon series fighter jets were born out of the German 109.
They were essentially German fighters, but like the 109, they also had the shortcoming of short legs.
Although the Dragon fighter is now a very excellent fighter, after several years of improvements, it is not far behind even compared to the original German 109, but its short range is a very disappointing flaw.
The range of less than 700 kilometers is almost half of that of the Tamron fighter.
The e109 was unable to provide sufficient escort, leaving a large number of bombers directly exposed to the Spitfire.
Although the performance of the Flying Dragon fighter aircraft in the northwest is outstanding and has obvious advantages over the aircraft equipped by the Japanese army at this time, it is precisely because of its short legs that it cannot fight in the air for a long time, and there is a big gap in number compared with the Japanese aircraft, so although The results were quite good, but they were never able to firmly grasp air superiority.
Due to the inability to provide sufficient cover, the northwest bombers were timid most of the time when dealing with the Japanese and failed to unleash the true power of the bomber group.
The Zephyr dive bombers also suffered considerable losses when fighting guerrillas on the battlefield.
It is conceivable that if all the Feilongs in service at this time were replaced by Tenglong fighters, it is estimated that the number of bombings encountered by the Japanese army from the Northwest Army would increase by at least 30%.
This was also a disaster for the Japanese ground forces who were unable to equip too much anti-aircraft firepower.
"Relatively speaking, the firepower output of the Tamron fighter has been greatly improved compared to the early models of Feilong.
The firepower of the Tamron 1 is 4 792 machine guns and 4 127 large-caliber machine guns.
The model of the aircraft gun is still slightly weaker. a little."
"Compared to the Feilong fighter, the combat performance of the Tenglong fighter is not better than that of the Feilong, but overall, the performance of the Tenglong fighter is very balanced.
There are no obvious shortcomings.
The cost is about the same as that of the Feilong fighter.
For the time being, the subsequent improved version of the Feilong Not yet able to be The Tenglong fighter has replaced it and is still the main combat force of the Northwest Air Force.
The Tenglong can be used as an auxiliary aircraft.
However, when the scale of the Tenglong fighter increases and subsequent improved models are put into use, it will become at least one of the two major aircraft types alongside the Feilong.
"Xiong Dazhen said.
"Although the speed has not yet caught up with the flying dragon, it is not bad that the first finalized aircraft can reach this point."
Jiang Li nodded.
At this time, World War II had just begun and was far from reaching its climax.
There are not many excellent monoplanes, and the northwest has two of them exclusively.
At the special naval base in Qinghai, various aircraft research institutes have long been discussing the topic of manufacturing carrier-based aircraft, but Feilong does not seem to be suitable for carrier-based aircraft. machine, now there is an additional option.
The layout of the navy in the northwest is not just the shipyards in the United States.
Even if there are ships, it will be a joke if there are no suitable carrier-based fighter jets.
The dive bombers can be improved by Zefeng.
But carrier-based fighter jets must be suitable.
Jiang Li didn't want to wait until he had defeated the Japanese and then allowed foreign ships to travel freely within the territorial waters of the Republic of China.
For the Republic of China, whose sea territory stretches for thousands of miles, especially the southeastern coastal areas are surrounded by sea, in a sense.
Control of the sea is no less important than land power.
For thousands of years, China has been rising and falling in various dynasties, but it has not done much because it only pays attention to land power.
"What about another kind of aircraft?
It seems to be faster than Tenglong and Feilong, but there seemed to be some malfunction in one of them just now."
Mr.
Zhou asked quickly.
"That is the latest aircraft developed by the humble research institute.
Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, several prototypes were trial-produced, but their performance was relatively average.
In the past three years, more and more people have been employed in the entire research institute, and more manpower has been invested.
The financial resources have also remained high.
However, for such a long time, it has still not been able to develop a mature aircraft, but a large number of pilots have died for it.
It is really shameful to be humble. " Although Jiang Li comforted him a few words, Xiong Dazhen still looked gloomy and explained, "The Qianlong fighter is a new type of aircraft that is completely different from all previous aircraft.

However, the efforts in recent years have not been fully completed."
In vain, it turns out that the power of the new jet aircraft Qianlong is not comparable to that of the current propeller aircraft.
The speed reached an astonishing 780 kilometers.
Even the current fastest Feilong 5 in the northwest has only touched the bottom of 600 kilometers and failed to break through.
In terms of range, the Qianlong 3 is faster.
The fighter has a range of 1,100 kilometers, which is also higher than that of the Dragon.
Its cannon is also extremely powerful. " "Since the Qianlong fighter has so many advantages, why not directly replace the Feilong and Tengjing, expand production, and make it the main fighter of the Northwest Air Force?"
the leader asked with interest.
By now, he and Mr.
Zhou have learned that Northwest's research in the aviation industry is extremely cutting-edge in the world.
At least those Soviet fighter planes aiding China are much inferior to Feilong.
The reason why the Northwest Army has been able to fight hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops in the Central Plains for so long is that, especially after the fall of Wuhan, the Central Plains theater has not seen turmoil for the time being.
The powerful deterrence brought by the Feilong series fighters has given ordinary infantrymen the feeling from the bottom of their hearts. sense of security.
At this time, the infantry of the Republic of China had very low requirements for airspace.
As long as the Japanese aircraft were not allowed to bomb indiscriminately, they could survive even if they occasionally suffered from the opponent.
And until now, the Feilong fighter planes have not disappointed these soldiers on the ground.
Since entering the northwest, they have gone from simple rifles and grenades to weapons that integrate air and ground, which is completely different from the previous combat mode.
They also know why the Central Army is struggling so hard under the Japanese attack.
Therefore, leaders and others also attach great importance to the northwest aircraft.
"I believe you, leaders, have just seen that the plane broke down just now.
Fortunately, the pilot died this time, otherwise he might have become the 14th pilot to die trying to fly this kind of jet aircraft."
Xiong Dazhen said with a gloomy look on his face, " Even after all these years of hard work, the possible failure rate of aircraft has been repeatedly Minimized, but as a brand-new aircraft, the power system is completely different from the previous engine and there are too many faults that need to be eliminated through repeated experiments, so Qianlong 3 is still not a mature and reliable aircraft if it is put into mass service.
It would be a disaster for current pilots."
Hearing the number of pilots lost in order to test the previous model of Qianlong, the leader and others suddenly became silent.
It was the Japanese army that wanted to shoot down so many Republic of China pilots, at least nearly two squadrons would have to be paid.
"The Republic of China has a weak foundation.
In order for the Republic of China to complete the research on various new weapons in the shortest time, it must pay a heavier price than the great powers.
These people are also martyrs of the country.
They should be remembered by history."
After a while. , Mr.
Zhou said.
"Work hard.
I hope that in a few years, the Qianlong fighter jets will soar into the sky, and the Qianlong invested at that time can save thousands of soldiers on the battlefield.
From this perspective, even if we know that some soldiers have to pay life, but sometimes we have to make a choice.”
Jiang Li patted Xiong Dazhen on the shoulder.
The technical reserves of the Republic of China were not as good as those of foreign countries, but the improvement of the performance of a new type of aircraft was completed by using the data of countless experimental tests to provide reference and then improve it.
In this regard, investment The lives of pilots are also a huge investment.
This is something that neither Britain nor Germany possesses at this time.
It is also through a large number of frequent experiments, trials, and various technical failures that occurred during the testing process that the various technical failures that occurred during the testing process were gradually overcome and reached the current point.
It can be said that the cost of developing jet aircraft in the northwest was unimaginable to the great powers at this time.
"Airplanes are indeed good, but if the great powers are also conducting the same research, or even go ahead of the Northwest, won't the Northwest lose more if it makes extraordinary moves?"
After Xiong Dazhen left with a renewed mood, Mr.
Zhou asked aloud.
"The layout of Northwest aircraft in recent years has been very effective.
I managed to get the specific parameters of the 109 export model.

Although it is inferior to the ones currently in service in the German army, it is not too bad.
At least for now.
Generally speaking, the aircraft in the northwest are already on the same level as the great powers.
In future wars, whoever has control of the air will have the right to speak.
In terms of strength, the Japanese military is much inferior to the European powers.
Why?
In Asia such as This arrogance is due to the fact that although the great powers are powerful, they have to come all the way to Asia to compete with Japan.
Based on the current foundation of the northwest, it does not have the ability to defeat the Japanese army in a short time.
At first glance, the Japanese army has been accumulating for many years.
But it is not without flaws, because they are short of oil, steel, and rubber.
Iron ore is in the Northeast of the Republic of China, and there are Japanese colonies, which can almost meet Japan's needs, but oil, natural rubber and other supplies must come from Southeast Asia. get."
"Judging from the current situation, Japan cannot change its shortcomings of poor resources, insufficient population, and insufficient strategic depth.
Although Japan's military industrial strength is stronger than that of the northwest, it must allocate a large amount of resources to the navy and at the same time draw the battle line.
Too long.
From the perspective of resources, the Japanese army's march into Southeast Asia is inevitable.
If the Japanese army divides its forces, then the more than one million Japanese troops in the Republic of China, even including the Kwantung Army, will have to guard the vast occupied area.
It is difficult to say that it is unacceptable to the Republic of China.
Therefore, at this stage, slightly suppressing the strength of the Northwest Army and allowing the Japanese army to move south without taking care of it is even more important than winning a few battles to eliminate 40,000 to 50,000 Japanese troops.
It is already an incredible victory.
Once the Japanese army moves south and captures Southeast Asia, which is vast and has extremely poor transportation infrastructure, it will be the best opportunity for the Northwest Army to start to mobilize dozens or even millions of Japanese troops. " "As for the British who now choose to sacrifice the interests of the Republic of China and preserve themselves, when the Japanese army sweeps across Southeast Asia and the Northwest Army repels the Japanese army in North China, they will beg to come over."
"I obviously have some trump cards in my hand, but now I have to hide them and not be able to launch a sufficient counterattack against the Japanese.
This feeling is really frustrating."
After boarding the airport back to Lanzhou, Mr.
Zhou still said to himself Said somewhat reluctantly.
"The Wuhan Central Committee also fought several tough battles with the Japanese army before, and its own losses were not small.
Now Jiang has retreated to Hunan.
If our army is too strong at this time, it may not touch Jiang's nerves. .
Human nature is like this.
Besides, they have retreated from a central government to local governments.
Their influence is not as good as ours, and their military is not as good as ours.
They can not worry about the problems after they defeat the Japanese."
The leader smiled and said, "Suffer the calm for a while and take a step back to open up the world.
On this point, Comrade Jiang Li is right.
No matter from the international environment or the domestic environment, now we must endure this tone and build high walls."
This sentence is used right now.
Very appropriate.
In a word, the main force of the Japanese army cannot be allowed to fall on the Northwest Army without any consideration.
The Northwest Army does not yet have the strength to fully confront the Japanese army.
Comrade Jiang Li has the overall situation in mind and a strong view of the overall situation.
This is the only one I have seen in my life.
Fortunately, he is not Chairman Chiang Kai-shek."
"I am afraid that Chairman Chiang cannot tolerate such people, otherwise he should have taken action during 918.
It is indeed a blessing for our party to be able to successfully take over the northwest and develop the organization."
Mr.
Zhou just felt a little frustrated, but he didn't understand the key.

"However, Comrade Jiang Li also has very distinct characteristics in his actions, including the main responsible persons in the industrial factories and arsenals in the northwest.
He is very experienced in employing people.
Some comrades in the party go too far.
As the Tibetan Chief said, laymen cannot guide experts, otherwise if the rear Something went wrong in the military factory , our material foundation for the war of resistance is not guaranteed.
This time the jet aircraft has been tested for several years, and the most critical technical fault has not been solved yet.
If some people are replaced, I am afraid that it will be a problem as soon as it comes up.
Forcing mass production regardless of danger will cause big problems. " "After being in the Northwest for so long, I found that many fields are very technical problems.
As the saying goes, it takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people.
There is a lot of professional technical accumulation in it, which cannot be solved by just getting excited.
Manager Zang As I said, our previous defeat on the battlefield in Jiangxi was due to some people's enthusiasm and unrealistic combat plans.
However, reality cannot be solved by thinking alone.
Therefore, regarding the extreme issues of some comrades, It needs to be resolved well, otherwise it will not only not help the current situation, but will actually hinder it.”
"Well, in this case, you can do more work.
I don't trust you to take this matter up and leave it to others."
After the leader pondered for a moment, he smiled and said, "Manager Zang, Chairman Shao and these people are all Understandable people, they can admit the problem of political governance in the northwest and dare to put the problem on the table.
As an enlightened political party, can we If you have the courage to think about the world, if you cannot face up to this problem, you will face more problems in the future, and how can you govern the country?
, Jin Wuzuchi.
Our party has not been around for a long time.
The problems are not terrible.
What is terrible is that it does not have the courage to face up to its own shortcomings
