Chapter 1490: 1491 New technology of the Ice Empire
Even if you are not afraid of becoming the next Liu Zhian or being liquidated by the Tang Empire, you still have to consider the possibility that if the Tang Empire invests in new weapons, the war situation may suddenly become uncontrollable, right?
Besides, it has only been a few years since the prime minister of the Mirage Kingdom was hanged in the Tang Dynasty, and the grass on Liu Zhi'an's family grave has not grown too high. Who dares to easily try the wrath of the Tang Empire?
Don’t you see, if I lose the battle, I will go home and become a rich man. If I surrender, I will lose half of it. If I really get on the blacklist of the Tang Empire, I will probably either die outright or have to live an ignoble existence in the deep mountains and old forests. .
The dwarf emperor Binghan I did not have a young and beautiful princess, nor could he be treated like the father-in-law of the emperor of the Tang Empire - what if the Tang Empire really killed everyone and used landmines on a large scale? Possibly involving the dwarven royal family.
So even though they desperately hoped to prevent the Tang army from landing, the dwarves ultimately did not use mines and mines in the steel barrier area.
However, the dwarves did not think of other ways. In order to resist the possible attack of the Tang army, they still developed a lot of weapons and equipment "within their capabilities".
First of all, they believed that it was impossible to make up for the Tang Army's firepower advantage by relying on heavy equipment, so they equipped a large number of mortars and sniper rifles with the purpose of killing and injuring the Tang Army as much as possible, causing the Tang Army to feel pain and then cancel the attack. .
In addition, the Dwarves took advantage of not having a war with the Tang Empire and imported J-6 fighter jets and related technologies from the Tang Empire.
With the new aircraft, they have also come up with many derivative models. On the basis of the original aircraft, various weird equipment were installed, trying to find a shortcut to catch up with the development speed of the Tang Empire's air force.
It’s just that the weird designs only have weird functions in the end. Those J-6 fighter jets that look similar to monsters are actually just some weird garbage.
However, the Tang Empire is still very willing to sell advanced technology to the dwarves, because the dwarves are more sincere than the empires such as Dorne and Lions. Well, they are richer, or they have more to trade with. H.
Dwarves have more ore, more steel, and other industrial raw materials. Their icy territory is full of treasures, so they have more money to buy advanced technology.
The Tang Empire has no shortage of advanced technologies, so even though it is about to attack the Ice Empire, the Datang Group still sells some technologies to the dwarves.
For example...the technology that allows the J-6 to take off at night. It is not difficult to install a small radar on the nose of the aircraft and allow the aircraft to take off and land in low visibility conditions.
Even Datang Group has "newly developed and designed" a J-6 model with air intakes on both sides for the Ice Empire, allowing it to install a higher-performance radar.
That's right, this thing is the Strong Five, a ground attack aircraft that is more like a fighter than an attack aircraft. It can use ground-attack rockets and even drop large bombs.
Of course, under extreme circumstances, in another time and space, the strong five can even throw nuclear bombs. In this case, its shortcomings such as low attack accuracy and too fast speed are not shortcomings.
The Dwarves' Strong Five certainly does not have weapons like nuclear bombs, and their Strong Five is not even called Strong Five. Among the engineers of Datang Group, this kind of attack aircraft is called "Jianliu Kai". It is an advanced weapon that the dwarves bought in exchange for real money. Even if they knew that the weapons in Tang Jun's hands were more advanced, and even if they knew that such aircraft could not defeat Tang Jun's aircraft, in the end the dwarves could only hand over the money honestly and take away the technical drawing production line.
Because the MiG-9s in their hands were even worse, and they even had no way to fight against the Type 262 fighter jets of the Yangmu Empire Air Force.
Now, although it is a bit late, the dwarves have entered the age of jet fighters through the old method of spending money.
It’s just that they discovered at this stage that airplanes alone were not enough. They need to make up too many lessons, so they have to spend more and more money.
They don’t have jet fighter pilots. Their pilots used to fly propeller aircraft, but now they suddenly switched to jet aircraft. Of course, it took time to adapt.
Plus, they don’t have airports and facilities for jets. The specifications of an airport that can accommodate jet aircraft are naturally different from the original airport. Therefore, in order to allow these advanced aircraft to fly, rebuilding the airport has become a difficult task.
Dozens of airports need to be improved at the same time, and new airports need to be built to higher standards. This all costs money and more time.
The third point is that the dwarves do not have the corresponding tactics and understanding. This is actually a problem. Without the air combat experience of the Tang Empire, the use of jet fighters needs to be explored and experience needs to be accumulated, and the dwarves do not have these.
They are not even as good as the Yangmu Empire next door. At least the Yangmu Empire has used the 262 jet fighter for a long time and tortured the dwarf air force for a whole year. The experience of bullying vegetables is also experience, right?
Of course, the dwarves do not have a ground maintenance team or a large amount of ammunition for the jet aircraft. These personnel need to be trained, and ammunition also takes time to produce.
In short, they have to do it all over again, and in the coming months, or even years, they will have to fill the big hole of jets with their limited resources.
There is no other way. Only by heating up these aircraft can the relatively cheap infrared combat missiles be better put into combat. Counting on those radar-guided air-to-air missiles is really too expensive.
Semi-active radar-guided missiles are too cumbersome to use and require pilots to constantly guide the missiles, which obviously cannot meet the requirements of the Air Force.
Sometimes it’s a problem if the opponent is too weak. You can’t use Dongfeng missiles to hit other people’s archers, right? Even if you pay, you will die...
So, the engineering and technical personnel of Datang Group are really worried about allowing countries on the Eastern Continent to use jet aircraft as much as possible.
As for the effect of this... we will know clearly after the two sides start a war.
