Chapter 845: 845 Sixth Master
Chapter 845 Chapter 845 Sixth Master
Do you think a seafood seller made a fortune selling lobster and king crab? No, the most sold items throughout the year are actually prawns and several types of fish.
Those precious seafoods that look extremely expensive cost hundreds of yuan per kilogram, which looks scary, but the profit in a year is not even a fraction of that of hairtail.
As an arms dealer in his previous life, Tang Mo's favorite arms were not Patriot air defense missiles, submarines, or meter-wave radars... but AK47 and T-54 tanks.
As the Interpol in Lord of War said, the ballistic missiles are still on the launchers, and the people who kill are assault rifles and rocket launchers...
So, Tang Mo’s feelings for the T-54, also known as the Type 59 tank, are really beyond words. When he saw the round turret and the familiar five pairs of wheels, tears could not stop rolling in his eyes.
Before the disintegration of the Soviet Union, he sold many T-54 tanks. In many cases, he even resold them directly as scrap metal. The prices were cheap and the performance was excellent. Customers who used them said they were good. Those so-and-so fronts and so-and-so alliances who cannot afford high-end products...the warlords, rebels, drug lords and generals whose names get poorer the longer they are, all like...
Just stroking the familiar body of the Type 59 tank with his hand, Tang Mo felt a sense of happiness that the world was becoming more and more real.
This place is becoming more and more similar to the world he still remembers in his mind, and Tang Mo knows that this world will become more and more like the world he is familiar with!
The Type 59 main battle tank will not be the end, it is just the beginning. Soon there will be many...many things familiar to Tang Mo appearing in Tang State, and they will appear faster and faster.
This is the case with technology. Once you have a certain foundation, the faster it develops, the faster it will develop. Some things simply fall into place, all that's missing is some inspiration.
But with the existence of Tang Mo, the most important thing Datang Group lacks is inspiration: everything can be used here in Tang Mo, and Tang Mo can also use all experimental results.
After possessing the world's first computer, Tang State had more advantages in many fields. With the blessing of computers, many things will only develop faster.
Tang State not only came up with new weapons such as the Type 59 main battle tank in the year after the war, but also came up with big killers like jet fighters.
In fact, the MiG-15 fighter jet, which is about the same age as the Type 59 main battle tank, is not a particularly high-tech gadget. The ancestor of the first jet fighter put into actual combat was Santoku's ME-262 fighter jet.
It’s just that the performance of that ancient thing is indeed average. Compared with the famous MIG-15, it is still too primitive after all.
The twin-engine design with two engines hanging under the wings is a design compromise made due to the fact that the engine safety is not up to standard, and it is not the optimal solution.
In fact, the design of the ME-262 fighter jet has been very successful on passenger aircraft in later generations, but unfortunately it is not very suitable for use by fighter jets.
The most famous mature jet fighters in the true sense are the MiG-15 and the F-86 Sabre.
As for the jet fighters produced by Britain after the war, most of them were short-lived, and their overall performance could only be described as average. There was no extraordinary performance that Tang Mo favored.
France is unique, but the gadgets produced by Dassault are too niche, and they really don’t suit Tang Mo’s taste.
Among the first-generation jet fighters, Tang Mo also prefers the MiG series fighters out of personal feelings. After all, this thing was once the patron saint of China and accompanied the growth of the young Chinese Air Force.
However, the MiG-15 fighter jet is still not very mature and is a semi-finished product that is eager to be equipped. The one that has truly modified the BUG and has higher safety is actually the follow-up model of the MiG-15.
So Tang’s latest jet fighter was eventually designated by Tang Mo and became the famous J-6 fighter.
With Tang’s technological accumulation and industrial strength, Tang Mo did not waste time on MiG-15 and J-5 fighter jets.
He directly took out Liu Ye's design drawings, which was equivalent to giving Tang State direct access to all-weather combat capabilities.
Although the Tang Air Force is still restricted in bad weather, Tang's future jet fighters can take off for combat at night.
In addition, Liu Ye can have the ability to launch close-range combat air-to-air missiles. Although the early combat missiles were not very accurate, this is after all an important trump card for the Tang Air Force in the future.
For a time, Liu Ye equipped with 59 and 56 assault rifles, the Tang Dynasty really had a bit of Chinese orthodoxy from another world.
Gradually, with the development and advancement of technology, the Tang Dynasty began to break away from the influence of Desan and was running towards the rabbit.
In fact, the weapons and equipment of the Rabbit are still very good, but the overall equipment time in the early stage is 20 years late. And in the early days, it wasn't even as much as 20 years later.
Think about it, when the Lighthouse Country equipped the F-4 Phantom fighter jets, the Chinese Rabbit actually had J-7s available, so it was not far behind. However, the later focus on economic development caused the development of military equipment to lag behind.
After Tang Mo traveled through time, he took out Chinese weapons and equipment without the huge pressure brought by the forerunner of the Lighthouse Country.
When Tang Mo took out the J-6, his opponent was not a human-operated rocket like the F-104, but a competitor that didn't even have the ME-109 fighter jet. Frankly speaking, using the Butcher Bird FW-190 fighter jet is more than enough to fight against them, but using Liu Ye is really overkill.
When these countries catch up to the level of the F-86 Saber, Tang Mo's J-11 fighter jets are probably flying all over the sky, so he does not need to pursue American equipment such as the F-16.
The power of American equipment is due to the system, the dividends of electronic technology, and a series of false results of bullying the weak.
If, on the other hand, F-4 and F-16 fighter jets were allowed to fight the J-11 and J-16 without electronic jamming and early warning command, the myth of American equipment would be shattered in an instant.
After all, Tang Mo must have been the first to use this system in the world. There is no way his opponents could be the first to come up with a similar system and surpass Tang Mo as a prophet.
By then, the J-11s of the Tang Air Force will massacre other countries’ F-104s and F-4s under the command of early warning aircraft, and the effect will be the same as using F-16s and F-15s.
Another advantage of Liuye is that as a mature jet fighter, it has the ability to exceed the speed of sound.
This allowed the speed advantage of jet fighters to be established, completely surpassing the ancient propeller fighters and becoming the true king that rules the sky in the future.
Of course, this new type of fighter is still under experimentation, and even many air force pilots are not aware of the existence of this new type of aircraft.
After all, Tang Mo was not in a hurry. His opponent was walking too slowly, and his weapons and equipment lacked any sense of urgency.
Two months ago, the most advanced fighter jets of the major countries on the Western Continent had just entered the era of metal lower-wings.
After such a long period of pursuit, they have just begun to figure out the technologies of "enclosed cockpit", "retractable landing gear", and "high-power long-range radio communication".
This is actually very rapid progress. Many countries have copied these technologies from the civil aviation aircraft sold by the Tang State. When the Tang State sold them these technologies, they had actually collected relevant fees.
After mastering these technologies, the air forces of these countries were more or less respectable in Tang Mo's eyes—at least, their aircraft could pose a slight threat to Tang's Butcher fighter jets.
Furthermore, after these countries improved the performance of their fighter jets, they also improved the performance of their bombers.
·Plagiarism is always possible despite design. Although they cannot produce a mature strategic bomber like the Flying Fortress, countries are still trying their best to make their bombers look more majestic.
The exposed cockpit and self-defense machine guns have been moved into the fuselage. As a result, bombers from various countries have a more or less modern feel.
Although there is still a clear gap between them and Tang's bombers in terms of range and speed, at least in appearance, they have achieved "simulation".
During this year, everyone has been busy phasing out biplanes, but because too many were built before, they haven’t been completely phased out yet.
Similarly, during this year, various countries also tried their best to build better tanks: after obtaining radio technology, everyone finally understood why the Tang Dynasty's armored forces were so strong!
The gap in tank performance is actually not that big. What other countries lack is just the key technology that allows tanks to work together.
Now that small radio equipment is available, countries are beginning to install it on their own tanks, and are beginning to frantically improve the coordination capabilities of their own tanks.
This has indeed improved the combat effectiveness of the armored forces of various countries, allowing them to begin to approach the heights of the Tang Dynasty at the tactical level.
In addition, in order to deal with the threat of Panther tanks, various countries have also launched their own new tanks one after another - like many countries in World War II in history, they have gone further and further down the road of heavy tanks.
Expensive radio equipment and artillery have made countries more inclined to equip their tanks with thicker armor. The high-hanging engines and transmission systems have also made the mobility of heavy tanks in these countries extremely poor.
New tanks launched by various countries generally only have a speed of about 20 kilometers per hour, and the reliability of the power system is even more impressive.
However, at least on paper, the new tanks produced by these countries are roughly equal to the Panther tank in terms of armor protection and artillery performance.
Therefore, in the future battlefield, the Tang armored soldiers must be extra careful when dealing with these tanks, because their opponents are no longer Wu Xia Amen, they are ruthless characters who are able to bite back.
