“…New fighter jet?”

Although he was not good at air combat and could not imagine whether this was very difficult, Valentina could still find out from Victor's expression that this information seemed to bother him quite a bit.

When Long Yun, who was sitting at the table, heard the girl's low questioning, did not immediately say a word.

Recalling the few words of the regiment's staff, especially the so-called "new fighter jet" in it, as a time traveler from the future, what he is most worried about now is of course the NATO group, or the Americans' strongest aerial weapon in the 1990s: the F-22 "Blazers of Prey".

In the real world where Long Yun is located, this fourth-generation stealth fighter, which has almost become a symbol of US air hegemony, confirmed that the yf-22 prototype of the "Lockheed Martin" company won as early as 1991, but the project progress was greatly delayed due to the sudden end of the Cold War. The F-22, which was first flew in 1997, was not mass-produced until 2005, and truly reached the IOC (initial-operational-capa force capacity) state that meets the US Air Force standards.

As the world's first practical fourth-generation stealth fighter, although there are many flaws and technical problems, it is undeniable that the "Raptor" was indeed the strongest aerial force in that era.

Because of this, Long Yun is now particularly worried that in this parallel world with a somewhat abnormal trajectory, if the Americans kept the research and development progress of the AtF (advanced-tactic-fighter) project due to the continuation of the Cold War, would that mean that the F-22 "Raptor" would be put into active service earlier and would even appear in the vast sky over the Black Sea?

He wanted to fight against such an epoch-making fighter. Even though he had already experienced many battles, Long Yun couldn't help feeling nervous under pressure. However, sitting there without moving his nest, he quickly changed his mind and made a simple reasoning, and immediately denied his bold speculation about the appearance of "Bird of Prey".

As for why this idea is not reliable?

The first thing Long Yun thought of was that Victor Rezenov, as a senior Red Air Force officer, had a very close relationship with the KGB. The omnipotent KGB First General Administration must be paying close attention to the YF-22 project. If there is any information, it will definitely inform VVS and PV as soon as possible, and it will inevitably be copied to him separately.

And in addition, with his skillful understanding of the technical characteristics of stealth fighter jets and tactics, if the F-22 really appears in the Caucasus war zone, it will probably be as silent as the assassin in the dark night. Facing the "Raptors" with radar stealth, there is no warning at all. The Soviet fighter jets that are fighting may not have found any trace of the enemy, and will be locked by the "slammer" missiles flying from somewhere. How could they return safely and safely again and again, and then submit a report saying that "the discovery of new American fighter jets"?

Well, it seems that it is unlikely that it is a "Blazers of Prey" in this way!

After some intense thinking, the conclusion was quite optimistic: Although American aviation technology is world-class, as long as it is not a cross-age F-22 Raptor, other new fighter jets are not worth worrying about for him, Long Yun and the pilots of the Red Air Force.

It’s easy to say about other models, but as for the “Blazers of Prey”…

For the F-22 "Baptor", this long-term cloud of overwhelming eastern sky is simply an indelible cloud. The trace of tension and awe before Long Yun was not out of cowardice, but a hidden worry that only arises after fully understanding the air battle in the invisibility era.

After all, as an expert in the aviation field, he is completely different from the so-called "ignorant fearlessness". Only by truly understanding the terribleness of radar stealth fighter can he propose practical defense and countermeasures strategically and tactically, rather than just underestimating the enemy and talking in general terms like many online worlds, or directly being frightened by the enemy's technological advantages and losing confidence.

After thinking about this, he raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. Long Yun returned to his usual expression and made a few intercourses with Valentine. While speaking, he thought that this girl had been in the base for a long time and didn't know where she had been, so he invited her to go to the hangar with him for a while:

"Ah, that's no big deal. Americans are not as powerful as they can create a 'Gundam'. - Now I have time anyway, so I'll take you to the base for a walk, how about it?"

"Okay, but what is 'Gandam'...?"

It is said that the speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, and the intelligence personnel's sensitivity makes Valentine capture a familiar word, but for a moment they can't remember where they had heard it. Seeing the girl's expression of concentrating thinking, Long Yun covered her mouth regretfully, and then he remembered that this word should also exist in parallel worlds. The historical backgrounds of these two worlds are almost exactly the same:

"'gundam', a human-shaped combat weapon in Japanese cartoon dramas, do you remember it? Tsk tsk, is this weapon... From a scientific perspective, it is probably just like the 'yato'-class battleship, which looks quite majestic but actually violates the laws of science."

"'gundam', cartoon drama? I haven't seen it..."

It was originally a serious dialogue on the situation, but it turned out to be a "cartoon". Valentina blinked her watery gray-black eyes, feeling that the major general in front of her was really unfathomable.

Why does Victor Rezenov seem to know everything and care about nothing?

When Long Yun saw the beautiful girl's confused look on his face, he remembered that he was in the Soviet Union in the 1990s. So Valentina's youth should not have many traces of Western cartoons. She probably belonged to a generation who grew up watching famous Soviet animation works such as "The Queen of Ice and Snow" and "The Battle of the Kergez River".

So he thought about it and changed the statement. This beautiful and capable KGB agent may not have seen "Gundam", but I believe that he has seen some other works:

"It sounds complicated, but it's actually a steel combat machine with human form, just like a 'Transformer'."

"Well, I understand that way! Of course, Americans cannot have that level of armed force, and can turn into robotic fighter planes to fly in the sky. This is outrageous no matter how you say it."

"Yes!--If that kind of thing is really studied by Americans,"

He spoke for a while and almost forgot that he was now a major general of the Soviet Air Force. Long Yun suddenly felt a little jokingly. He talked to Valentina with his eyes shining, and he almost stopped talking along the way, "... In short, there is nothing to worry about. When the Americans have the Transformers, I think we will soon have a Star Destroyer! 'Our journey is the sea of ​​stars'. This sentence sounds really exciting, doesn't it?"

"Victor, why do I think you...a little like a child."

I spent some time with Victor. I saw this ace major general so energetic for the first time. Valentina looked up and down at the man beside her in confusion, with a hint of joking in her tone, "If it weren't for this flying suit, I'd probably believe it if you were a child drama actor in a troupe of Moscow, I'm afraid I'd believe it, hehehe~"

"Haha, is that true?"

While they were talking, the two of them came to the small road. Long Yun tilted his head and looked at Valentine beside him. Perhaps because he felt that his words and deeds were not consistent with his identity, he temporarily ended the topic.

However, unlike the appearance of restlessness, he was completely suppressed and refused to speak. In fact, he wanted to tell the young girl in front of him: "Our journey is the sea of ​​stars." In the real world, this sentence is no longer a casual talk of an animation character, but is engraved directly above the building hall of the Aerospace Command of the League of Eastern Nations, becoming the ultimate dream of generations of unswerving astronauts.

The shining sky of stars is indeed full of unstoppable mysterious temptations for countless Chinese people...

...

"Ah, Victor, are these two fighters yours?"

As we walked and chatted along the way, the two young men came to the reinforced hangar covered with night, chatting and laughing. They stood and watched in the huge hangar space with bright lights and a little cool breeze. Valentina first greeted several ground crew members whom she had known, and then walked around the hangar, looking curiously while asking questions.

Hearing the girl's question, Long Yun followed her eyes and looked at the two su-27s in the hangar that were staggered one after another:

"That's right, the mission in the regiment has not been heavy recently, and the losses are relatively minor. If the battle situation is in a hurry, I wouldn't have so many planes waiting to attack at any time."

While speaking, he walked towards the metal giant bird quietly dormant in the hangar. Long Yun stood up next to the Red No. 17 su-27s with a proud look, and raised his hand to greet Valentine to the red boarding ladder on the side of the nose of the aircraft.

With a bit of pride, Victor Rezenov was a playboy who showed off his luxury sports car at this time. However, the real situation was naturally different. Will there be mass-produced sports cars in the world with a unit price of more than 20 million rubles (about 30 million US dollars)?

In the tall and spacious hangar, the Red No. 17 and White No. 20 fighter jets that have experienced the baptism of war can be felt by anyone standing in front of him. The huge body full of mechanical beauty is shrouded in a layer of fierce murderous aura. Compared with the war machines defending the sky of the Red Empire, ordinary transportation tools are far inferior in momentum. Moreover, even the so-called "gold sports car" (actually, it is just a rumor) is just a flaunting fantasy of nouveau riche. So what if the whole body is inlaid with diamonds?
