Chapter 607 Delano: We must treat each other equally
The mission has been completed, and it’s time to go back. But how to go back is also particular.
Qin Tao and Wu Shengli were both busy people and could not follow the fleet as it would be too slow. Therefore, they could return to land by taking a helicopter on the aircraft carrier or even using a training aircraft as a taxi.
Hearing Wu Shengli's question, Qin Tao smiled: "Let's take a helicopter first and go to Shuangsha Island to have a look. The fleet will go all the way back north. By June 30, we will return to the aircraft carrier formation, which will almost coincide with the start of the relevant aircraft carrier formation.
It’s in the sea area, it’s our way anyway, let’s just go over there and take care of things, how about that?”
At this time, when he heard Qin Tao talking about the town, Wu Shengli also smiled: "Okay, then report to the superior. If the superior approves, we will go to the town!"
In response to Qin Tao's suggestions, Wu Shengli almost always accepted them. He was in a good mood and was in a good mood. That afternoon, a Z-8 took off from the deck and flew to Shuangsha Island.
"Due to some operations recently, our Shuangsha Island Fishing Resort has suspended operations. For the sake of national defense, it is right for our village to lose some income." Qin Tao said while looking at Shuangsha Island in the distance from the plane.
.
"Don't worry, the Navy will not compensate you for your travel losses in the past few days." Wu Shengli was also rude: "You Shuangsha Island has made a lot of money recently, do you still care about this little money?"
Qin Tao was a little helpless. He was just acting selfless. How could he think that his father-in-law would misunderstand that he was asking for money in disguise? However, this kind of thing became darker and darker, so I won't talk about it anymore.
"Dad, in the past few years, we have filled in enough islands and reefs. However, the only airport we have built so far is this one, which is far from enough. Our navy will have to continue to allocate funds here.
Airports will be built on the other two islands and reefs to form a triangular layout with Shuangsha Island, so that we can better protect our sea areas." Qin Tao got down to business: "As for the reason, of course it is to develop the sea here.
Tourism resources.”
Wu Shengli nodded, and his expression became serious: "Yes, we will continue to build new airports. Once there is a situation here, our navy and air force will be able to respond better. We also need to deploy the flying leopards to carry out operations.
Routine cruise.”
"It seems that our 601 Institute will continue to work hard. The Navy needs two-seat fighter-bombers. In addition to the Flying Leopard, it also needs a modified version of the J-11. Dad, let's go to the Northeast when we have time in the future. They are moving slowly.
, you have to kick them in the butt."
Qin Tao's words brought a smile to Wu Shengli's face. This son-in-law was so domineering when he spoke.
The navy's aircraft are still mainly J-7s and J-8s, and funds have been used to purchase J-15s. There are not many Flying Leopards. It can be said that the navy is still seriously lacking in advanced fighters.
"Why don't you talk about your J-31A? We can also use this aircraft as our main force in the future." Wu Shengli said.
"This aircraft is not mature yet, and we can't sell it to you. When it matures in the future, the navy won't even want it." Qin Tao said with a smile.
Zhiba landed on the tarmac of the Shuangsha Island base, next to the Air Police-2000 carrying a large plate. After several people got off the plane, they went straight to the early warning aircraft.
"Mr. Wang, thank you for your hard work. This early warning aircraft has experienced actual combat. It should be mature, right?" Qin Tao greeted with a smile: "Our navy is still in urgent need of a large number of early warning aircraft!"
"Gong Qin, don't be anxious about this matter." Mr. Wang responded with a smile: "Although we have used this aircraft in the mission, some technical problems have been discovered during this mission, and we still have to carry out some work.
Adjustments."
The technology of early warning aircraft is not so easy to tinker with and mature!
Without ten or eight years of research and development time, it is impossible to finalize the equipment for the troops. Some even found insurmountable technical problems during the research and development, and finally gave up. For example, the British Hunter early warning aircraft was a failed product.
Now, there are many reasons why the KJ-2000 has matured so quickly. For example, the State Group provided an advanced computer system with more than enough computing power, but the reason for the failure of the Hunter early warning aircraft was the lack of computing power. Another example is that after
With the development of 346 radar, 14 institutes have accumulated enough experience, etc.
"That's right, these are all funds from our air force. What's your navy worried about?" Another person got off the early warning aircraft, it was Mr. Lin. When he came up, he puffed his beard and glared: "You guys step aside first! Air police -
2000 is our Air Force’s Tianzi No. 1 project!”
"Mr. Lin, you are right." Qin Tao nodded: "Our navy is not in a hurry, let us go up and have a look?"
Mr. Lin blocked the door of the early warning aircraft. If Qin Tao wanted to go in and have a look, of course he had to ask Mr. Lin.
"See if you can. Don't move around. Don't damage the precious early warning aircraft of our air force." Mr. Lin repeatedly warned.
Wu Shengli didn't say anything and followed Qin Tao in.
When he saw the internal scene, Qin Tao couldn't help but be surprised: "The interior of our early warning aircraft is not vertically arranged?"
Since it was modified using the Yin'er-76 airframe platform, Qin Tao wanted to compare it with the A-50 early warning aircraft. Lao Maozi's early warning aircraft was unique. Looking from the direction of the cockpit to the back, in
There is a long passage. There are consoles on one side of the passage. Each console has a circular radar screen. There is a seat in front of it. The radar officer sits on it to give commands. This seat can also rotate nine times.
Ten degrees, when taking off and landing, they will turn in the direction of the plane, waiting for the impact of takeoff and landing.
What now?
The control console that Qin Tao saw turned into a train hard seat layout.
The control consoles are arranged horizontally inside the cabin. There are three control consoles in a group. The two sets of control consoles are back to back, forming a cabinet. Two long cabinet consoles are placed in parallel and can accommodate twelve radar officers.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This layout method is quite novel.
"We also chose this layout after some research." Mr. Wang said: "Our layout takes up the smallest space, and the entire room can easily be made into an electromagnetic shielding room to avoid being affected by the big plate on the top.
At the same time, a rest cabin is arranged at the back to preserve the crew's physical strength."
Qin Tao nodded and continued to look at the console: "This console is not thick. What you installed on it is an LCD monitor? Aren't you afraid of smearing?"
This was the 1990s! It was still the time when cRT monitors were popular. Although there were already LCD monitors, the technology was too backward. For example, when the LCD monitor matched the Loongson computer, when the mouse was moved, an arrow moving trajectory would appear on the screen.
, it looks like a special effect, but in fact, this is entirely due to lag. Although the display has passed, the liquid crystal molecules cannot immediately return to their original state, so smearing occurs.
For radar displays, the impact of smear is obviously more serious. However, in the previous era of cathode ray tubes, radar engineers deliberately made the image stay longer, so that when waiting for the radar antenna to scan the second circle, the first
The bright spots displayed by the circle are still on the own screen, which is convenient for analysis and judgment. Could it be that engineers also take advantage of this advantage of LCD monitors?
"Mr. Qin, you may not be aware that last year, Hitachi produced a brand new IPS monitor. This type of monitor has great advantages. It has a wide viewing angle and will not produce obvious color casts when viewed from different angles.
The colors are bright, full and natural, and it can also display dynamic high-definition pictures without smearing or trailing. It is a professional imaging display. When we were assembling this early warning aircraft, we compared many aspects and decided to choose this display.
We also believe that in a few years, better displays will appear."
The upgrading of civilian displays is very slow. The 1990s was still the era of cathode ray tubes. However, in the military industry, LCD displays have begun to be noticed.
After all, the advantages of LCD monitors are also obvious: light weight and energy saving!
Every inch of space on an early warning aircraft is valuable, and saving weight is very beneficial. At the same time, saving power is even more important.
The power of a cRT monitor is at least one hundred watts, while the power of an LCD monitor is only about twenty watts. These monitors can save thousands of watts of power!
"Yes, LCD technology is developing rapidly. In a few years, it is estimated that we will be able to produce advanced LCD monitors in China. By that time, the display equipment of our various military products will be updated."
Qin Tao looked at the cockpit in front. It was still a watch shop with Lao Maozi's characteristics. When it arrives, it will be replaced by a few LCD screens and it will become more modern.
After visiting the early warning aircraft, it was dark when we came down.
"Let's go to the cafeteria. We've been tired of eating in the past few days." Mr. Lin said with some emotion.
"Tired of eating? Mr. Lin, you are so blessed that you don't know how lucky you are. If you put these things in a big restaurant outside, a meal would cost four to five hundred!" Qin Tao felt helpless.
A large number of people who come to Shuangsha Island for tourism come here for the food. A large number of seafood are farmed here, which are high-end products. These people are actually tired of eating them!
"I have to get tired of eating abalone and bear paws every day. I really miss the sweet rice that I used to have." Mr. Lin said.
"Okay, then I'll take out my belt and let the kitchen prepare a meal for you."
"Taozi, is your belt made of cowhide? To be honest, I haven't eaten boiled cowhide in a long time."
"It seems that I should bring a metal belt."
Everyone else suppressed their laughter. No one dared to talk to Mr. Lin like Qin Tao. Outsiders should not get involved in the elder's world.
After joking, everyone entered the cafeteria. As expected, seafood was the main dish. People who had eaten for several days were frowning, while Wu Shengli and Qin Tao devoured the food.
The aircraft carrier formation at sea is also riding the wind and waves and sailing north.
The Type 908 comprehensive supply ship sailed to the side of the aircraft carrier and set up a supply line. Thick pipes began to replenish the aircraft carrier with fuel. The supply overhead cable was also skillfully built. Container-sized supply goods came to the aircraft carrier along the cableway.
.
"Thanks to this comprehensive supply ship." On the ship island, several people in flight suits looked at the supply ship on the side with emotion: "Back then, this ship was an abandoned ship on the slipway of Da Mao.
President Qin bought it and transformed it into a large supply ship. Apart from its lower speed, it has no other shortcomings."
"Yes, it is the only one that can meet the supply requirements of our aircraft carrier fleet. Moreover, after we have fully understood its technology, it can also be used on other supply ships. In the future, if we want to sail across oceans, we must have more supply ships.
.”
"You should be able to eat fresh fruits and vegetables today!"
Everyone was talking about it, and at this moment, Wang Wei came over: "Attention, all pilots must gather in the pilot preparation room!"
Gathering? Is there a mission? Everyone is curious. This mission has ended. Moreover, Wang Wei came to gather everyone in person, so it should not be an important situation.
After Wang Wei finished saying this, he walked out and soon appeared on the deck of the aircraft carrier. He called a few vests to open one of the boxes and then sent the contents of the box to the ship island.
Everyone in the pilot's preparation room watched this scene in amazement.
"What is he doing?"
"It looks like clothes!"
"Is everyone here? We are giving out clothes now, and they are all in your previous sizes, so it should be fine." At this moment, Wang Wei walked in from outside.
"Are you really giving out clothes? Our military uniforms are new this year!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! They can receive two sets of military uniforms every year, and each set of military uniforms also includes winter, summer, regular uniforms, training uniforms, flight uniforms, etc. They have no shortage of clothes at all.
I didn’t expect that I still have clothes now. What’s going on?
Everyone stared at him with big eyes and small eyes.
"Yes, we want to promote the style of hard work and simplicity, but when necessary, we also have to show our own style. Come and see how this new 97-style military uniform looks like."
Type 97, new military uniform?
Everyone was stunned. Is this the 97-style new military uniform? It doesn't look any different. It's still a suit with small lapels, four buttons, and a white top. Who designed this?
"Hey, what is this?" Someone took out something like a yellow ribbon.
"This is a ribbon, hanging from the epaulettes to the chest." Wang Wei introduced: "This is a special dress. In addition to the ribbon, there are also military badges, name tags, armbands and other symbols. We have to wear this dress
, accept the review of the motherland and the people."
"But we are pilots. Shouldn't we fly the plane and take a spin to see our majestic appearance as warriors?" Zhao Yu spoke.
"Fly a plane? The superior leaders have given instructions. The plane is too flamboyant. The fact that we have an aircraft carrier in the past is enough to show our power and majesty. When the time comes, we will wear this military uniform and stand outside. You will be satisfied."
"Currently, among the whole army, only the troops stationed in the Pearl of the Orient have changed into Type 97 military uniforms, and we are just passing by."
The Type 87 military uniform will be worn until the 21st century before it will be replaced by the Type 07 military uniform. The Type 97 military uniform is just a special case and is specially assigned to relevant troops and is not distributed to the entire army.
"Okay." Zhao Yu nodded.
Almost all the soldiers in the entire fleet have received military uniforms. Next, they will appear on the scene as a guard of honor. As for the aircraft carrier, in addition to flying the colorful flags all over the ship, they also need to discuss the best way to line up on the deck.
After several days of discussion, there was no result until Zhiba Fei, which was carrying Qin Tao and Wu Shengli, came back. After hearing about what these people were struggling with, Qin Tao immediately helped them make a decision: in addition to setting up a human wall in a circle.
Outside, on the deck, there is another set of human figures, 1842-1997. All of us must not forget this period of history!
It was a humiliating history. Foreigners relied on the strength of their ships and artillery to turn old China into a semi-feudal and semi-colonial country.
During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, part of Dongguan County was set aside to establish Xin'an County, which became the Pearl of the Orient area in later generations. In 1662, the Qing Dynasty sent troops here and implemented the policy of keeping hair but not hair. As a result, the locals also
With big braids, this place played an important role in foreign trade during the Qing Dynasty.
On January 26, 1841, after the First Opium War, the Pearl of the Orient was seized before the sun set. Although the Qing government at that time tried to regain it by force, it simply did not have the ability. By August 29, 1842
On June 9, 1898, the unequal "Treaty of Nanjing", which was the original "Treaty of Jiangning", was signed, and cession began. Later, the "BJ Treaty" was signed. On June 9, 1898, the "Special Treaty on Expanding the Boundary Site of Hong Kong"
, that is, the "New Territories Lease" was signed. All areas of the Pearl of the Orient, including more than 200 large and small islands, were ceded. The lease period was 99 years and ended on June 30, 1997.
Counting from the First Opium War, the time is more than a hundred years, it is a history of humiliation of more than 150 years!
Therefore, Qin Tao did not suggest setting the date in 1898, but in 1842, which is more commemorative.
The humiliating history has become a thing of the past. If those guys still try to restore their former glory, it is impossible. They can't even enter the southern sea of the motherland! The navy of the motherland has become stronger! It can fully cope with it.
Any barbaric interference from outside forces!
"Qin, I protest to you!" Qin Tao was introducing the layout with splashes of foam when a voice came from outside.
Protest? Protest for what?
Qin Tao looked outside and saw a familiar figure.
"Delano, what have you been wronged about? Tell me and I will provide you with justice."
"Why can they wear new military uniforms, but we can't?" Delano said angrily: "You are discriminating!"
Qin Tao understood instantly and couldn't help showing his helplessness. These people actually thought they were being treated differently. What can be done? The 97-type military uniforms are issued to show the majesty of the army. You are foreigners and you cannot be outside.
Swagger, why do you want new military uniforms?
He has always been very cautious in dealing with this group of foreigners to avoid accidents. At this time, Qin Tao tried to make his expression more sincere: "Everyone, this is not discrimination, but to protect you."
"What kind of protection? This is clearly discrimination! Qin, apart from our skin color and eyes, how else are we different from others? Our hearts are the same!" Delano said: "But, you always treat
We looked the other way and it hurt us a lot!"
Are all hearts the same?
Qin Tao suddenly became excited.
Of course he understood the meaning of the words. On the surface, he was just dissatisfied with the new military uniforms and dissatisfied with the different treatment. In fact, he wanted more status!
"Everyone, if you are willing to join our nationality and join our army, there will be no problem. The leader Wu around me can also help you complete all the processes and procedures."
Wu Shengli also understood and nodded: "Yes, from now on, you will officially become a member of our navy! Come and give them new uniforms. From now on, all their treatment will be the same as ours."
!”
This is understandable. In the past few years, they have been working as instructors in the East. Over time, they have become accustomed to this place. They no longer use knives and forks to eat. They can use tachyons to pick up various delicacies. Most of them still
After learning to speak Chinese, some of them even fell in love with oriental girls.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The things they have done make it impossible for them to return to the United States, so staying is the best choice.
Even if they have accumulated a large amount of wealth, it is impossible for them to spend it abroad.
More importantly, they saw the power of the East. In the past few years, the Navy of the East has developed too fast!
If they want to operate heavy carrier-based aircraft, they have to stay. The catapult built at the Wasteland Village base makes them look forward to how heroic the next aircraft carrier from the East will be. If they stay here, they can still realize the value of their lives!
Therefore, when they were treated differently after changing their military uniforms, they became dissatisfied. Qin Tao also understood what they meant. Leader Wu's promise made them feel very satisfied.
From then on, they have officially joined the pLA! They have become real Eastern soldiers! When the next aircraft carrier is commissioned, they may be able to continue to show off their talents on the next aircraft carrier!
"Yes, from now on, we will obey the orders of our superiors and become qualified soldiers!" Delano replied excitedly.
"I will walk you through the process after we go back. Now, you should put on your military uniform first," Wu Shengli said.
It sounds difficult for foreigners to join Dongfang's nationality, but the group of people in front of them have contributed their strength to the strength of Dongfang's navy. As long as their deeds are reported, the relevant departments will definitely give the green light.
Qin Tao was also very satisfied. When he lured these people here, he had no intention of letting them leave. Now that they can officially become members of the Eastern Navy, it is naturally the best.
As the motherland becomes stronger, more and more foreigners will envy and admire the East. Not everyone has the opportunity to join the Oriental nationality. They must have made huge and outstanding contributions to the East.
Regardless of whether they have yellow skin or white skin, everyone's heart is red.
