I built an armada.

Chapter 494 Unprecedented, Su Dingping received the highest praise

"Oh, Chief Deng mentioned it a few days ago."

Su Dingping was not surprised at all, and even didn't care much.

"Boss Su, I heard that I also have a copy, and all the staff of our integrated military factory have a copy."

The news revealed by Wan Long made Su Dingping look sideways.

He realized a problem: this time the commendation was not limited to a small scope, but was large-scale and serious.

"Why is there such a big commotion this time?"

Su Dingping was quite surprised and couldn't help asking.

Wan Long shook his head slightly and said, "I also got the news from Colonel Zhang Zhaoxin. I don't know the specific reason, but the commander said that we should go there tomorrow night."

"Okay, I understand this."

Su Dingping nodded, and without thinking too much, he continued to devote himself to his research work.

He picked up a book titled "J57 Turbojet Engine of the Air Force Classic Aviation Engine Series" and sat there to read it carefully.

Speaking of the J57 turbojet engine, it is the first twin-rotor aircraft engine on the blue planet and also the first engine with a thrust exceeding 4.535 tons. The structure inside is very classic and worthy of in-depth study.

For Su Dingping, once research reaches a certain level, everything remains essentially the same.

Wan Long was just about to turn around and leave, but the moment he turned around he saw the bold title on the cover and was immediately surprised.

"Mr. Su, have we accepted the mission from the Air Force?" Wan Long asked.

Su Dingping asked casually without even looking up: "Air Force? What mission does the Air Force have?"

"What about Mr. Su?"

Wan Long hurried over and pointed at the huge book in Su Dingping's hand.

"You're talking about this book."

Su Dingping smiled casually and said, "Do you remember those U-2 high-altitude reconnaissance planes we shot down before?"

"of course I remember."

As soon as Wan Long finished speaking, he reacted immediately, as if he had thought of something, and said in shock, "Could it be that President Su..."

Su Dingping smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It's not as exaggerated as you think. I just happened to have some ideas, so I found some information to take a look."

After walking out of the laboratory, Wan Long's heart was still surging.

Although Su Dingping did not say much, he was also tactful enough not to ask more questions. He still knew the basic rules, but he knew that when Su Dingping said he would start looking for information, it meant he was going to take action. He was deeply shocked.

That's the U-2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft. Although it's not the Eagle Tribe's top reconnaissance aircraft, it's also ranked in the top three, and it still brings a lot of pressure to the tribes on the blue planet.

I didn't expect that such an advanced reconnaissance aircraft would be...

As he walked out of the research institute building, Wan Long felt inexplicably proud.

"Boss Su is really not an ordinary person. He can even handle an air force reconnaissance plane."

Then, a hint of excitement emerged on his face. "When we have advanced reconnaissance aircraft like the U-2 in the future, we will be able to conduct reconnaissance in the enemy's airspace, and the enemy will not be able to detect us or attack us."

"Hahaha, I get excited just thinking about it."

At the end, Wanlong couldn't help but reveal a bright and proud smile.

In the laboratory, Su Dingping continued to look through the materials in his hand, put them down, picked up another document "Study on the Status of J5I Turbojet Engine under Wind Tunnel Test", flipped through a few pages, put it down again, picked up another book "Resonance on the J5I Turbojet Engine Test Bench" and started to read it carefully again.

He reads very quickly, but with incredible efficiency. He does not just skim through the content but selectively absorbs the useful content.

After flipping through several books in a row, Su Dingping finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he turned his attention to the military industry forging space and checked the various data appearing on the virtual panel of this engine.

The analysis progress data of the U-2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft has made considerable progress.

"Third generation reconnaissance aircraft - U-2 high altitude reconnaissance aircraft. Completeness (15%) Note: Temporarily unavailable for upgrade!"

“液压操控阻力技术完整版（解析进度99%，解析时间2天）；合成孔径雷达技术完整版（解析进度99%，解析时间1天）；J57涡喷发动机技术完整版（解析进度95%，解析时间10天）；高分辨率摄影、多光谱分析组合系统技术完整版（解析进度100%）。”

“干扰金属箔片技术完整版（解析进度100%）；新型航空燃料技术解析完整版（解析进度98%，解析时间11天）；高空加压服技术完整版（解析进度100%）；高空电子侦查技术完整版（解析进度100%）……”

After so many days of hard work, most of the core key technologies have been successfully analyzed, which means that as long as he wants to build a U-2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, he only needs to wait patiently for 12 days at most.

However, he was not very interested in replicating this high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, but in acquiring sufficient technical reserves. He was proficient in many fields, so his research was naturally quite smooth.

That's why he was able to make such rapid progress in such a short period of time. It can be said that it was surprisingly smooth.

"It seems that many core technologies are progressing smoothly."

Su Dingping smiled with ease and muttered to himself, "Upgrading to the next generation of reconnaissance aircraft is still too challenging for the current military industry system."

"Whether it is the new technology or the various high-precision production equipment involved, none of them can keep up. Currently, it is only suitable for the production of naval warships."

"If we want to produce carrier-based aircraft, the integrated military factory needs to be upgraded at least twice, and the scale needs to be expanded."

Thinking of the expansion of scale, Su Dingping fell into deep thought.

"Forget it, let's just leave it at that for now. Having a third-generation reconnaissance aircraft is enough. Once everything else catches up, we can move on to the next generation."

Su Dingping pondered for a moment and made a decision. For the time being, he would still focus on building naval equipment and make defense the main purpose.

Then he realized that the integrated military factory urgently needed another upgrade and expansion.

After the suppression of the rebels last month, I had a discussion with Marshal Xue. It is not an easy task to include the military-industrial production of the navy, army and air force. It will definitely require drastic construction.

It will be a huge expense at that time, so we must be extremely careful.

Moreover, in the development of the space field, the tribe developed relatively slowly, so Su Dingping directly classified it into the air force system.

In this case, he needs to conduct in-depth research on the time and opportunity for expansion.

We must never expand for the sake of expansion, which will lead to the loss of our main business and slow down the development of naval equipment. That would be a loss.

Two days later, Su Dingping, accompanied by Wan Long, boarded a special plane that flew directly to the Navy Headquarters Base.

After them, a group of military experts from the Yiting Chemical Arms Factory also took the opportunity to set off.

Of course, there are still personnel on duty at the integrated military factory, and those military production tasks must not be stopped at any time.

Not only can we not stop, but we also have to build it quickly.

The Navy owes too much debt and needs to make up for it quickly. It cannot slow down even a little bit.

After all, imperialism has never given up its desire to destroy us!
Capital, Naval Headquarters Military Base, Conference Hall.

Su Dingping sat together with a group of leaders. Although he did not have such a high military rank, in the eyes of Liu Huaming and others, his status was no worse than those big guys.

It can be said that it is precisely because of Su Dingping's existence that their backbone has become stronger day by day, and the navy in the Dongzhou waters is no longer afraid of challenges from any opponents.

"Many of our naval officers and commanders have received invitations to this tri-service commendation meeting."

Liu Hua was obviously very happy, his face flushed.

He was very emotional in his heart, for in previous major commendation ceremonies like this, the Navy always envied the Army and Air Force and were always responsible for applauding.

Now, the total number of people invited by the Navy includes collective commendations for the troops. Although it is still not as good as the Army, it is slightly higher than the Army in terms of individual heavyweight commendations. If it weren't for the last campaign to eliminate the rebel forces, the number of people who made meritorious contributions in the Army would probably be the Army and Air Force's turn to envy the Navy this time.

"Dingping, you will attend the live event with me then."

Afterwards, Liu Huaming turned around and gave instructions to Su Dingping who was sitting next to him.

"Yes, Chief!"

Su Dingping gladly accepted the order.

This was very much in line with his wishes. Following Liu Huaming was better than wandering around alone at a loss.

At the same time, the army and the air force were also making intensive preparations.

The next morning, the Beijing Military Region Commendation Conference officially began.

All the invited guests gathered here.

A huge banner was hung in the auditorium of the Beijing Military Region.

"Three-Service Commendation and Rank-awarding Ceremony."

On the high platform, General Xue sat in the middle, with senior commanders from the navy, army and air force sitting on his left and right, including two from the army, one each from the navy and the air force.

The entire platform was decorated in an extremely solemn manner, bringing the atmosphere here to its climax.

In the first row below sat the heads of the navy, army and air force, including Xu Dongguo, Qian Wenbing, Xiao Chongjun, and Su Dingping.

As for the back, sitting there were officers and soldiers of the three armed forces who were about to receive commendations. They sat in lines in different sections, looking very neat and solemn.

Among them, nearly half were majors or below, and the other part were representatives sent by various departments.

Among them are naval soldiers from integrated military factories.

There were hundreds of people in total, filling up the small auditorium.

"All rise!"

Seeing that the time was almost up, Xue Shuai stood up and announced directly, "The Three-Service Commendation Conference is now officially starting!"

This conference was hosted by him personally, and its specifications and level were extremely high.

As soon as the words were spoken, passionate tribal songs were played in the auditorium.

It was over and everyone sat down again.

"Comrade Hua Ming, your navy will be the first to come this time."

"You played a great role in the last operation to wipe out the rebels."

Xue Shuai turned his head to look at Liu Huaming beside him and raised his hand to signal.

"Yes, Xue Shuai!"

Liu Huaming immediately accepted the order, opened the folder in his hand, took a look, and said loudly, "All officers and soldiers of the navy, stand up!"

Xu Dongguo and other people from the navy all stood up in unison.

"After unified review by the three armies and approved by Marshal Xue, Wan Long and Ma Tianxiao are awarded... the rank of colonel! With the treatment of a regular brigade commander... and are awarded a first-class collective merit!"

"Award Zhou Qinglei and Cao Youren... the rank of senior colonel, with..."

"Granted..."

All the sailors who participated in several naval battles were either promoted in rank, had their military rank and treatment improved, or received military merit.

As for people like Zhang Zhaoxin, their military ranks were not promoted, but their military treatment was improved, and they were directly promoted to the level of a full colonel.

With the Navy's awarding of ranks, the promotion ceremony ended, and next came the Army and the Air Force.

After more than an hour, the military commendation conference came to an end.

Xue Shuai immediately announced that everyone could leave.

Su Dingping naturally stood up and left, but was stopped by Xu Dongguo.

"Isn't it over?"

Su Dingping was quite surprised. He wanted to hurry back to continue working.

"No, the chief has other activities, you must participate."

Xu Dongguo said with a serious face.

Now Su Dingping had no choice but to stay.

Before long, only a few important leaders of the three armed forces were left in the auditorium. It was a gathering of true generals, and top-notch ones at that. The only colonel left was Su Dingping.

At this time, several guards came out, took down the banner and replaced it with a new one.

Su Dingping couldn't help but look up and was suddenly stunned.

"Comrade Su Dingping's promotion ceremony to the rank of Colonel!"

Oh my god, this is too big.
Next, he will award a rank to himself alone, and the person is such a high-ranking military leader?

This salary is a bit scary.

If he hadn't seen such a big scene before, he would have remained calm.

If an ordinary person came up here, his legs would probably feel weak.

"Commander, this..."

Su Dingping wanted to back out.

"Don't worry, you deserve this. I told you at the beginning that this day would come for you."

Xu Dongguo patted Su Dingping's shoulder gently and spoke earnestly.

He remembered very clearly that the last time he awarded Su Dingping a title, it was extremely shabby and totally unworthy of his status.

"Due to your special situation, we must hold a separate commendation meeting for you."

"Don't mind me. This is how we treated strategic-level scientists like Mr. Qian."

"There are a few of us who will bear witness together."

Liu Huaming, who came over, immediately added, appearing extremely kind.

The venue was soon rearranged and it was still very solemn and dignified.

Xue Shuai personally went to the battle and solemnly opened the folder, announcing: "Comrade Su Dingping, stand up!"

Su Dingping stood up immediately, his body straight and his eyes bright.

"Dear Comrade Su Dingping, Comrade Su Dingping's major scientific research achievements have brought unprecedented revolutionary technological changes to the Navy."

"The Military Council has unanimously decided to award Comrade Su Dingping the rank of Navy Colonel, the treatment of a full division commander, and three first-class merit awards... and the highest scientific and technological progress award!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the honor guard members marched over in step, holding medals, certificates of honor, and military ranks, and stopped in front of the totem flag. Everything was so solemn and dignified!
