Chapter 1454: 1455 flying shark
“I heard you want to buy a football team?” Tang Mo asked his father-in-law curiously, with excitement written all over his face.
Like-minded people, like-minded people! He is also a football lover, otherwise he wouldn't be able to form the Royal Chang'an Club, right? Unfortunately, the club's results were not very good, which made Tang Mo feel a little uncomfortable.
My father-in-law actually wants to buy a sports team. This is simply good news that makes people happy. So Tang Mo turned sideways slightly and said, "The Tang Dynasty Super League is definitely a money-making project. You are very discerning."
He did not look at Ying Duo when he spoke, because something more exciting was attracting his attention on the other side.
That's right, at this moment the Tang Empire's navy is testing a new heavy-duty air superiority fighter, which will completely replace the old model F-4 Phantom and become the world's most powerful carrier-based aircraft.
Seeing the Air Force's J-11 project in full swing, the Navy of the Tang Empire was naturally unable to sit still. After a series of discussions, they believed that they must have their own air superiority fighter.
Since then, the technical demonstration has been launched. Tang Mo was very fond of the F-14, the star fighter jet of the Lighthouse Navy that he was familiar with before traveling through time. The variable swept wings made the aircraft elegant and could be called a work of art.
With the support of cartoons, movies and other works, the Tomcat fighter jet was beautiful, with a loneliness that was invincible in the world at that time.
Unfortunately, due to cost considerations, the Tang Empire was obviously unwilling to allow its navy and air force to use two completely different air superiority fighters.
Although his financial resources allow it, Tang Mo's character is still quite stubborn. So he chose another heavy fighter for the Tang Empire's navy: the Flying Shark.
That's right, Tang Mo really likes Rabbit's weapons. They are cheap, affordable, large in quantity, advanced in performance, and... full of intimacy.
So the Tang Imperial Navy inexplicably missed out on a handsome carrier-based aircraft, and instead acquired a J-11 with an extra pair of canards.
This is actually not accurate, because the J-15 is obviously not an aircraft similar to the SU-27. It only looks the same in appearance, but in fact it is almost completely different.
Even Mao Xiong did not classify its carrier-based aircraft as the SU-27 series, and even used a completely different internal structure during the development of the prototype.
They are just very similar in appearance, but there are actually big differences inside. However, after adjustments, Datang's naval flying shark and Yinglong still have many parts that are completely interchangeable.
“I don’t want to buy a team. I want to build a team myself.” Ying Duo lowered his head and said to Tang Mo. He told Tang Mo that he wanted to form a Qindi team, which made Tang Mo look at his father-in-law with admiration, who had just become a fan for a few days.
Honestly speaking, people are talented, and Ying Duo is the kind of person who is very talented in the position of manager. He has only been exposed to football for less than half a year, and he already seems to be much more professional than Tang Mo.
Although Tang Mo may be the first person to bring football to another world, he still has little knowledge of the actual operation. In fact, the Royal Chang'an Club has its own professional manager, and Tang Mo does not participate in any actual operations. management work.
He doesn’t have that time either. As the emperor of an empire, he already has a lot of work every day. How can he manage a football club? There is even a strange saying that the full moon must be missing, and that being too perfect will eventually lead to destruction. Therefore, the greatness of the Tang Empire in terms of national power must have some flaws to neutralize it, and the Royal Chang'an Club is used by His Majesty the Emperor to coordinate the national destiny...
This neurotic statement was recognized by many people as soon as it appeared. Everyone feels that the Royal Chang'an Club's weakness is not without reason. They just bear too much for this country.
"Very good. If your money is not enough, I can ask Ying Yue to give it to you. It can be considered as her investment or as her filial piety to you. You can discuss it among yourself and don't worry about me." After Tang Mo finished speaking, Pointing to the plane in the distance: "It's starting!"
The test flight has begun. Unlike the Air Force's aircraft, the Navy's aircraft are required to be able to eject and take off on a very short flight runway.
To this end, Feisha strengthened the landing gear, strengthened the fuselage structure, and reduced some internal fuel tank volumes for these improvements. The voyage was affected somewhat, but not significantly.
Due to its late start, the Navy model Feisha directly used the newly modified fly-by-wire system on the Yinglong, which resulted in better flight control performance.
Of course, because the Tomcat was not used, the Navy also did not have the famous Phoenix air-to-air missile. This super anti-aircraft missile that can attack ultra-long-range targets was buried in the dust of history.
It was the first time Yingduo saw such a huge aircraft as the Flying Shark. At first, he thought it was the latest bomber of the Tang Empire being tested.
But later, after being explained by Air Force professionals, he realized that the brand-new aircraft in front of him was an advanced fighter designed to specifically attack enemy aircraft.
So he immediately turned his attention to the new plane in the distance that was being debugged and prepared to take off. Looking at the plane again at this time, Ying Duo realized that it was different.
The huge fuselage and twin vertical tail design are completely different from early jet aircraft, and its sharp nose is also completely different from the jet aircraft Yingduo has seen.
Qin’s 183 fighter jets all have air intakes at the nose, so Ying Duo always thought that the aircraft were probably about the same length as the 183 fighter jet.
Now, after the explanation, he realized that the nose of the machine is such a precious space, and there is no need to leave it for the air intake. Installing a radar on the nose of the aircraft is simply a genius design.
So he did not dare to disturb Tang Mo, and immediately began to ask the air force officer on the other side who was responsible for explaining to him whether the Type 262 fighter jet sold to the Yangmu Empire was more suitable for modernization.
"No, Your Majesty the Duke. The nose of the 262 aircraft is too small, and there is no other place to install the cannon, so there is not much room for improvement." The Air Force officer said to Ying Duo with a smile.
Although the Yangmu Empire does have plans to improve the 262 fighter, the Tang Empire has even helped them improve the 262. A Yagi antenna and a very simple detection radar are installed on the nose of this aircraft.
This improvement gives Poplar Empire’s 262 the ability to fight at night, but its actual use effect is actually very average.
