694, tit for tat(1/3)
The press conference was very effective.
The next day, all major media headlines were asking for news from the press conference.
Lysol and the capital of Spur cooperated to develop rockets and satellite positioning systems, which did not cause much repercussions.
However, the Black Bat transport aircraft has a strong impact, especially among military fans.
At this time, the American B2 stealth bomber had already made its first flight two or three years ago, and the photos had long been exposed.
Originally, the appearance of the B2 stealth bomber was already sci-fi, but I thought the Black Bat transport plane would be even more sci-fi.
If it hadn't been clearly stated in the newspaper that this was Laisou's newly launched transport aircraft.
Otherwise, at first glance, I would have thought it was an alien spacecraft.
In addition to science fiction, the Black Bat transport aircraft gives people an even stronger shock.
Yes, shocking!
Because the Black Bat transport plane is much larger than the B2 bomber.
The Black Bat transport aircraft is seventy-five meters long and has a wingspan of eighty meters.
In comparison, the B2 bomber is only 21 meters long, has a maximum wingspan of less than 53 meters, and has an empty weight of only 70 tons.
The whole thing is only half the size of the Black Bat transport aircraft.
The most shocking thing is that such a behemoth can actually take off vertically.
As a result, the Laisuo Aircraft Factory became lively again. Countless military fans came from all over the world to wait outside the Laisuo Aircraft Factory, wanting to see the true appearance of the Black Bat transport aircraft.
At the same time, several authorized toy companies took the opportunity to launch a simulation model of the Black Bat transport aircraft, and sold 50 million units in less than a week.
Genuine simulation models are not cheap. A good one costs thousands of dollars, and the cheapest one costs fifty dollars.
From the licensing fees and commissions, Blanche made a fortune again. She immediately called Xia Yang and wanted to acquire the rights to the Black Bat bomber, aerial air-to-air tanker, and early warning aircraft as soon as possible.
But at this time, the Black Bat bomber and other products had just been approved and had not yet been designed. Xia Yang had no choice but to promise Blanche to give them to her as soon as the designs were ready.
For military fans, the Black Bat transport aircraft is just a hobby, but for the country, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has risen to a strategic level.
Once filled with fuel, it has a range of 10,000 kilometers, a cruising speed of 900 kilometers, a payload of 150 tons, and the ability to take off and land vertically.
With this performance, thousands of soldiers armed to the teeth, or a platoon of soldiers, plus two main battle tanks, can be easily sent to any corner of the battlefield.
In addition, what worries most countries is that this is only the performance data released by the Black Bat transport aircraft. The real performance of the Black Bat transport aircraft will only be stronger.
Indeed, usually the performance data published by weapons and equipment is only its basic performance, and only the manufacturer knows the true performance.
The same is true for Laisuo, and according to Laisuo's consistent tradition, the real performance of the Black Bat transport aircraft is an increase of 15 to 20% from the published performance. Even in some extreme cases, the service life of the engine and other equipment is sacrificed, and the performance can still be
higher.
Of course, only customers who purchase the Black Bat transport aircraft can know these secrets.
The Black Bat transport is so excellent and advanced.
The happiest thing is of course that those countries that Sper approved arms sales can purchase advanced Black Bat transport aircraft, but what is helpless is that the cost of one aircraft is 350 million US dollars, which is really heartbreaking.
This is a typical example of being in the midst of blessings and not knowing the blessings.
You know, those non-arms-selling countries that want to buy Sper cannot buy it, they can only covet it.
Laisuo launches the Black Bat transport aircraft. For most countries, the only question is whether Laisuo will sell it or not. Can they buy it or how many planes can they buy?
But some countries are different.
The United States is used to feeling threatened.
It has always boasted that it is the world's leader in military equipment, but it has been overtaken by others.
In fact, with the technological foundation of the United States, it is certain that the United States can build a vertical take-off and landing transport aircraft like the Black Bat if it wants to.
If you want to go faster, just stack the engine and build it quickly.
Ross is the best at this kind of thing. If his skills are not enough, the engine will make up for it.
…
America.
Luxurious office.
With a bang, Damon threw the newspaper into the trash can.
"What a bunch of losers, playing bad cards."
When the capital of the United States used GPS to force Xia Yang, Dimon had a hunch that it might cause Xia Yang's backlash, but he didn't expect Xia Yang's backlash to be so fierce. He directly spent tens of billions of dollars to develop his own satellite positioning system and build his own rockets.
emission.
What is even tougher is to abandon the previous production of only defensive weapons and start developing and producing offensive and even strategic weapons.
In addition to the newly launched Black Bat transport aircraft and planned bombers and other weapons and equipment, the most important thing is that the rockets are advanced, and long-range missiles such as intercontinental missiles are also good.
With the expansion of product lines like Laisuo, there is no doubt that competition in the arms market will become more intense and their market share will be further compressed.
Damon regretted that he had not planned to stop the capital of the United States. Unfortunately, at that time, he was thinking that the capital of the United States could give Xia Yang some color.
Unfortunately, Xia Yang's temper is still as tough as ever, and the same is true when facing the world's most powerful country, the United States.
At this moment, Moore and four others came in.
All four of them had ugly faces, especially Thompson and Moore, whose faces were the most ugly. Both of them had uncontrollable anger on their faces.
Because the C5 Galaxy transport aircraft is developed and produced by Thompson's Locke Martin.
In addition, the C17 Globemaster transport aircraft developed by Moore's Sonic Company has passed test flights and is ready for sale.
But at this time, Xia Yang launched the Black Bat transport aircraft, whose performance exceeded the C5 and C17 transport aircraft. You can imagine how much impact it had on the two companies.
"Both England and Germany have temporarily terminated negotiations on the C17 transport aircraft. It should be the Black Bat transport aircraft that seems to be coming."
Moore said angrily.
Thompson sneered, "You are much better than me. There are no external orders for the C17. At least there are domestic orders available. However, my C5 transport aircraft upgrade plan will most likely be cancelled. The military has just informed that the C5 transport aircraft comprehensive upgrade plan will be temporarily suspended.
Renovation orders worth tens of billions of dollars are canceled as soon as they are called off. They are all a group of bitch. They caused trouble themselves, but made us suffer losses."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Thompson's eyes were red with anger. After all, the order is worth 10 billion US dollars, especially a highly profitable business like fighter aircraft upgrades.
Unfortunately, everything was ruined because of the appearance of Xia Yang's Black Bat transport plane.
As for the reason why the U.S. military suddenly canceled the C5 transport aircraft upgrade plan, Thompson knew without guessing that it was probably because of the Black Bat transport aircraft.
Although they have signed an agreement with the U.S. Military Department, the military department only purchases weapons and equipment produced in the United States.
But if the U.S. military really wants to purchase Black Bat transport aircraft, there must be a way around it.
The more Thompson and others thought about it, the more unwilling they became.
They also thought about investing in the research and development of a transport aircraft of the same type as the Black Bat to attract purchase by the U.S. military.
But the problem is that a vertical take-off and landing transport aircraft can only be developed through research and development, and we don’t know how much money will be invested.
Not only were the orders gone and no money was made, but large sums of money had to be invested in research and development.
Thompson and others not only hated Xia Yang for seizing the arms market, but also hated the United States for looking for trouble.
If the U.S. military hadn't made trouble for Xia Yang first, there would have been so many things.
At this time, Di Meng's expression became calm, as if he had made up his mind. After putting down his wine glass, he said, "Please count the losses clearly. We cannot bear all the losses ourselves. We must be responsible for the trouble caused by the military."
"This is the best news I've heard recently." Moore smiled.
The three Thompsons also relaxed. They came to find Dimon for this purpose, and together they put pressure on the military to obtain part of the compensation for the losses.
After all, like Moore, he finally developed the C17 Globemaster transport aircraft, but because of trouble with the military, the sales of the C17 were unfavorable, and he may not even be able to earn back the research and development funds.
"So what should we do with Laisuo? The performance of the Black Bat transport aircraft is indeed very good. Should we talk to Xia Yang and try to get the Black Bat transport aircraft technology? Otherwise, all our market shares will be robbed."
Thompson's proposal was immediately approved by Moore and the three of them, and they asked Xia Yang to buy or exchange the Black Bat transport aircraft technology to share the market and make money together.
Of course, this is because they have enough bargaining chips. They have plenty of satellite and rocket technology that Xia Yang needs.
However, Damon shook his head, "If it was possible before, it would be impossible for Xia Yang to transfer the Black Bat transport aircraft technology to us now. Believe it or not, even if the U.S. Military wanted to purchase the Black Bat transport aircraft, Xia Yang would not be able to do so."
Sell."
Tomlin and the other four thought about it, and with Xia Yang's temper, this was really possible.
"Then we can only develop it ourselves."
Moore frowned. Research and development by himself means more investment and a higher risk of failure.
"I have studied the Black Bat transport aircraft. It is indeed a masterpiece and worthy of our research and development. However, the aerodynamic layout, composite lightweight materials of the body, control system, etc. of the Black Bat transport aircraft are not difficult for us. The most troublesome thing is the engine.
, I investigated that the engine carried by the Black Bat transport aircraft is Laisou's newly developed displacement engine, called the Beast, and its performance is the same as the name of the Beast. This displacement engine has powerful thrust and more explosive power than what we are currently developing.
The thrust of a turbofan engine is much greater, so it cannot be achieved in a short time."
Jones said frankly, illustrating the difficulty of developing the Lyso Beast displacement engine.
His General Electric Company's strength is the research and development and manufacturing of fighter jet engines, so his words definitely represent authority.
