For this reason, the navy will obtain enough funds to build several secret submarine caverns along the coast of the Tranquil Ocean, allowing submarines to use these caverns.

The Navy will also acquire another naval base and naval shipyard in Tranquility to maintain the existence of the submarine force.

Although I haven't been able to get a new big toy, but after I have an imaginary enemy and a follow-up construction plan.

The commissioners of the Navy finally accepted the construction plan with their noses held.

And also agreed to Victor's plan, and first started construction of a light cruiser and two destroyers to supplement the North Sea Fleet.

The rest of the funds were used to build a new naval yard in Tranquility and to build submarine caverns.

After the construction of the cavern is completed, the construction of two offshore submarines will be started first, and then the plan for heavy ocean-going submarines will be started.

At the same time, the Navy established the Sapphire Design Bureau to further optimize submarine technology.

In short, except for the places where no agreement was reached, basically all agreements were reached in this meeting.

Let Victor, who had been avoiding the navy for a long time, reach a mutual understanding with the navy commissioners.

After the meeting, Victor went to Kangqing City again.

Because after blowing the wind tunnel for such a long time, and Victor lowered the standard, he asked to toss out a prototype of the interceptor first.

The space agency has finally achieved something.

The experimental interceptor code-named [Seagull] is about to make its maiden flight.

In fact, in the second half of 21 years, the space agency transferred a major from the Golden Company to begin glider training.

Use the airship to pull the crude glider model into the sky, and then drop the glider for training.

The reason why he was drawn from the Golden Company was that this major was the best of all those who had received parachute training.

If something goes wrong, at least the test pilot can keep it.

During the half-year test flight, the space agency obtained a large amount of data by flying once a day, sometimes even twice a day.

And the flight control system of the glider has also been modified and adjusted hundreds of times.

Thanks to a large number of test flights and the functions of the magic crystal, the members of the interceptor project team even said that the current flight control system has been optimized to the point that it is easy to learn and even a monkey can do it.

At the same time, they also made some adjustments to the original design plan, such as after abandoning the main thruster.

A rocket with relatively small thrust is also installed on the plane, which can increase the flight time and distance of the plane.

So when Victor saw the [Seagull] parked on the launch pad, he always felt a sense of déjà vu.

Habitually use your finger to cover the main thruster to take a look.

It's you! U-2 reconnaissance plane!

Although the proportions are certainly wrong, the appearance of this glider is indeed very similar to that of the U-2.

It’s just that there are no two huge engines under the U-2, and in order to reduce the research cost, the water drop canopy was not used, but a square canopy made of flat glass was used instead.

According to the person in charge of the project team, in order to reduce R&D costs and speed up the project progress, the square cabin cover is still used at present.

After the first flight is successful, subsequent models will be changed to the drop-shaped canopy at the time of design.

At the same time, the matching 23mm cannon is still under development, so now the nose is only equipped with a counterweight to balance the counterweight.

Except for these two points, the rest will basically not have too many changes from when they were in service.

When it is officially in service, this seagull will be equipped with three 23mm cannons on the nose.

Four more rockets are mounted on the belly to attack Teutonic heavy airships.

However, although the cannon is still under development, the rocket has already been prepared, and it can be demonstrated this time.

While the project team was conducting a final inspection of the seagulls on the launch pad, a balloon mounted on an airship was also raised in the woods not far from Kangqing City.

As the project team completed the final inspection, the major, wearing a flight jacket and a warm cotton cap, also came out of the lounge and boarded the plane.

In order not to cause too much pressure on the pilot, Victor did not go forward to chat with the pilot.

Soon, with the canopy closed, the launch site emptied.

As a blue flame erupted from the launch pad, the seagull quickly flew into the sky.

Even with the binoculars in Victor's hand in the control tower, the plane with blue flames quickly disappeared from Victor's field of vision.

All that could be heard was the calm voice of the pilot on the horn.

"Altitude 6000, attitude is normal."

"Altitude 8000, the fuselage shakes slightly."

"At an altitude of [-], the rocket successfully disengaged, the flight attitude is good, and it is gliding normally."

As the pilot reported on the radio that the plane had started to glide normally, cheers and applause erupted in the entire tower.

Victor patted the project leader on the shoulder.

"Register me a list, and I will apply for medals and vacations for you as rewards."

"Comrade Kirov, we've had enough vacations, we want to hurry..."

Seeing Victor staring at him, the person in charge quickly swallowed back what he hadn't finished speaking.

"I will hand over the list to you as soon as possible, Comrade Kirov."

Victor patted the person in charge on the shoulder again, without speaking.

Instead, he continued to look at the sky with a telescope and tried to search for the shadow of the seagull.

While searching, I began to wonder whether it is time to start researching radar.

Otherwise, things like airships can be dealt with by observation stations.

But if someone is also quietly studying the aircraft, then without radar, there will inevitably be a lot of losses.

However, radar is a product of the electronics industry. Does this mean that communication radio stations can also be studied?

Now the aircraft is not using a radio station, but a broadcasting system with a specially adjusted frequency. It uses a very unpopular frequency to maintain communication with the ground tower during the flight.

It's really hard to pull the hips.

In my heart, I silently wrote down my plan to set up another design bureau and start working in the direction of the electronics industry.

Then continue to use the telescope to search for traces of the glider.

Just as Victor held up his binoculars and searched everywhere.

In the direction where the airship-shaped balloon was raised before, there was a sudden explosion.

When Victor put down the binoculars and looked in that direction, a black shadow quickly passed over the tower, and the balloon was falling into the woods while dragging the flames.

Except for the explosion sound when the balloon was hit by the rocket, Victor didn't notice any movement during the whole process.

Seeing such an efficient performance of the seagull, Victor was very satisfied with this test aircraft.

Only one or two wings are needed to completely seize air supremacy from the airship.

If it weren't for the fact that the disposable rocket engine used now is too expensive, and the technology is not mature enough, Victor would even want to do some crazy things.

For example, directly build hundreds of seagulls, and then build more than a dozen airships, and go directly to raise the Teutonic.

So Victor just suppressed this impulse in his heart.

After the seagull lowered its landing gear and landed successfully, Victor went to meet the test pilot, after admiring his excellent flight performance and saying that he would now at least have a Red Star medal.

Then I went to the chief designer of the space agency and said that the new aircraft is good and I am very satisfied, since your technology has also been verified.

Then add more burden and study several more types of aircraft.

There must be an attack aircraft with armor that can withstand light weapons shooting, and use machine guns and rockets to destroy the front-line bunkers and trenches, as well as the mechs.

There should also be bombers with a longer range and capable of bombing factories in rear cities.

In the end, it will be more troublesome. You have to find a way to design a naval bomber that can be used to bomb battleship-level warships.

Hearing Victor's request, the chief designer of the space agency was stunned.

It’s not that the first Seagull hasn’t been mass-produced yet. You’re going to start so many projects in one breath. Even if you’re picking up the money, we don’t have so many people here.

Victor said, don’t worry, you can pre-research first.

And by the way, considering the common use of parts, these aircraft can continue to wait for the rocket engine that can be reinstalled and reused.

Now you just need to finalize the seagull freeze design and put it into production.

After hearing this, the chief designer gave up the urge to pick up the documents on the table and spell a white paper into a red paper with Victor.

After adding the burden to the space agency, Victor went to check the progress of the T-2 tank very smoothly.



096 Queen's Question

Compared with the aircraft that the space agency has completed test flights.

The progress of the T-2 tank will be much slower.

The main reason is that the entire power system has been unable to decide whether to choose a steam engine or a gas turbine.

Including design bureaus are more inclined to use gas turbines.

But the GT design team, it's like a girlfriend on a date "Give me 5 more minutes!" "Just 1 more minute!"

Just like that.

Although it is not that there are no phased results given in the middle.

But as soon as the vehicle was loaded and run, basically before the test site was finished, the vehicle caught fire and the crew members evacuated.

However, the steam engine design team as an alternative completed the design early and installed it on another engineering vehicle for a test run.

While not as buggy as a gas turbine, it runs very reliably.

But there is still the old problem of steam engines: heavy.

Although the No. 1 engineering vehicle equipped with a steam engine runs faster than the T-[-] tank.

However, it still cannot meet the needs of the troops for high-speed breakthroughs.

So now the entire design bureau wants to know when the gas turbine design team will be able to hand over a test paper that can at least pass.

Even the researchers of the vehicle team have already figured out a No. [-] engineering vehicle with the turret removed as an assault gun version while waiting.

To be honest, if it weren't for that speed, Victor would not be able to accept it.

Victor wants to directly choose the steam engine version of the T-2 tank.

But Victor's patience is almost exhausted at this time.

So Victor drew a dead line for the gas turbine design team, if before September, a gas turbine that can be loaded into a car cannot be handed over.

Then the T-2 tank will use the steam engine solution.

The gas turbine will wait until the T-3 tank to equip it.

Just when Victor was annoyed by the failure of the research on the T-2 tank.

There are also people who are distressed by the speed of the vehicle.

That person was Charles, the Commander-in-Chief of Franche.

But compared to Victor, it’s different how can’t I go to Germania if my tank can’t fly.

The two things that bothered Shire were that the design submitted by his car company was still not running fast enough.

Because according to Shire's plan, that is after the high-mobility troops secretly assembled in the demilitarized zone of the Seine River in the name of building roads.

Rush directly from the demilitarized zone of the Seine to Germania in one breath. If you can rush along the way, if you can't, let the infantry stay and hold the Teutons.

Let the main force rush directly to Germania to catch the Teutonic Queen back to the iron tower and hang her.

Therefore, the speed of the vehicle prepared for this offensive must be fast enough and reliable enough.

But the problem now is that in all current designs, the speed of this high-mobility vehicle is not fast enough.

There is no way to pierce Teutonic's heart and brain sharply like a stabbing sword.

Another thing is that the vehicles of the Teutonic Dark Continental Army are running too fast.

The members of the Dark Knights who were fighting on the Dark Continent for sabotage were complaining to the sky, and their losses remained high.
