Chapter 663 Moscow calls
"Seventy kilometers? Well... do I think this goal should be reliable."
On the phone, Long Yun was sure to encourage Andrei Ushakov. In fact, he certainly had this confidence. Haven't the R-77s in the real world been created for many years? What Russia can do after the disintegration? The elite soldiers and powerful generals of the "pencil flag" can do this in parallel worlds.
"Actually, if the performance of the 9b-1348 seeker meets the standard, the range is only slightly higher than the American Aim-120. However, considering the rcs of the carrier itself, the higher the range, the better, haha!"
"Yes, we have the same idea!"
When he heard Victor say this, it was basically consistent with his own considerations. Ushakov's tone became lighter. He felt that although Victor Rezenov was a front-line combat pilot, his thinking was really very agile.
As a senior expert of the "Pennant Flag" Design Bureau, he naturally knew that the conditions for judging the advantages and disadvantages of the situation using active radar-guided missiles are actually very simple - whoever has the self-conductor of the missile locks the target first, he can turn around and disengage, or perform maneuvering evasion; in this case, the missile range is only one aspect of the problem, such as the seeker intercepting distance, and the target's RCS will have a certain impact on the exchange ratio of BVR air combat.
From this perspective, the longer the interception distance of air-to-air missiles, the better; on the other hand, it is well known that the frontal radar scattering area of the Su-27, the main third-generation fighter of the Soviet Union, the MiG-29, is relatively large. Although it is not much larger than that of the Western fighter of the same specification, it still has no benefit in the over-visual range combat where radar-guided missiles are mainly relied on radar echo intercepting targets and use radar-guided missiles to shoot each other.
Therefore, as an air-to-air missile designer, since the RCS of the fighter cannot be changed in a short period of time, I naturally hope that the greater the missile range, the better. This will help the pilots to launch the enemy first and lock the enemy first. As for the specific tactics and tactics, it depends on the on-site performance of the front-line personnel.
In this way, the two of them chatted a few more times on the confidential phone call, and agreed to have a good gathering after meeting Moscow. After hanging up the phone, Long Yun sat in the communication room for a while. Now, although he has implemented the R-27p problem, he still feels that his mind is a bit messy.
Since this time travel, he has fought a lot of air battles and brought Sophia Kotakinna whom he met by chance to Moscow. He just asked Valentina to find Vladimir Pukin who was unknown. These things are still going well now.
But compared with these family matters, what should he do next about this world war and those difficult mysteries?
Subconsciously, he wanted to go back to the barracks later. Long Yun was stunned on his seat for a while, until he was a little dizzy by the fluorescent lights in the communication room. He slowly stood up and walked out of the room, walking in the corridor. At this time, a series of "beep" reminder sounds were emitted in the communication room with the door behind him. He felt that the next communication had nothing to do with him, so he continued to walk out for a few steps. He was stopped by a lieutenant in charge of confidential communication and told him that Moscow had another call:
"Uh. Your phone number, Comrade Rezenov! Please come here to answer it. This phone number... was called by the Kremlin."
"Kremlin?"
He stopped when he heard the words of the lieutenant. At first, Long Yun thought it was Andrei Ushakov who remembered something, but when he heard that it was not the case, he raised his eyebrows in surprise. Since the so-called "phone call from the Kremlin" was called from there and looking for him, then there should be only one possibility?
Thinking of this, Long Yun suddenly felt a little nervous and a little curious. He quickly returned to the communication room and sat down, picked up the phone and responded. Sure enough, he heard a familiar and calm voice:
"Hey, Victor? Why did you answer so quickly?"
"Ah-Hello, Comrade General Secretary!"
Although I have met twice before, I still have a good impression of this tall and young and strong General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee. When I really picked up the phone, Long Yun was still a little nervous. "I just contacted the people from the Design Bureau of the Pennant. As soon as I hung up the phone, you called."
"Oh? Hehe, you're still busy!"
Hearing Victor's words, Konstantin Malenkov on the other end of the phone smiled cheerfully. He probably didn't know much about Victor's business dealings with the "Pennant", so he continued to say: "Where is, I've been in the office until now. I remember that I haven't asked about your situation recently, so I asked the secretary. The front-line war is tight now, so it's not easy to find you. How are you fighting recently? I heard Vasily two days ago, our Air Force Commander, and your cumulative record has exceeded 100. Is that true?"
"Uh-it seems to be, but I don't remember it very much."
"Haha! I've fought too many wars and can't even remember them clearly? But looking at such results, I think everything should be going well on the front line. This is great..."
On the phone, like when we met before, Malenkov, who had a steady voice, was still as friendly and easy-going as ever. I wonder if it was because he had met Victor before and admired this young man quite well.
Long Yun, who was sitting upright at the table, holding the microphone, listened to the General Secretary's care and answered two short sentences from time to time. He unconsciously kept straightening his back in his seat, as if he was talking to Malenkov in person. While busy with war on the front line, he suddenly received a call from the supreme leader of the Red Empire. He pondered it for a while, but he didn't realize that Malenkov had anything urgent, so he felt that the call was a bit strange, but of course he did not express it in his tone.
While speaking, he unconsciously thought how good it would be to meet in person: with his current skillful consciousness, he might also get more useful information from the thinking of this former KGB backbone and the current supreme leader of the Soviet Union?
Although this idea, although there was no malicious intention at the starting point, Long Yun felt a little abrupt. He was a little distracted while listening to the phone, until he heard Malenkov's words without thinking:
"... Then, from the last promotion to the present, your combat achievements are obvious to all; I have proposed on the committee before, the rank of "Lieutenant General of the Air Force", what do you think?"
"'Aviation...Lieutenant General'? I--"
Just when his head was a little distracted, he suddenly heard the General Secretary's words. Long Yun was stunned for a moment before he realized. Could it be that Malenkov was telling him that he had been promoted to lieutenant general of the aviation army?
With this idea in mind, he quickly sorted out the words he heard just now but didn't care about it. Long Yun felt that General Secretary Malenkov should be asking and did not really submit the matter to the committee. However, when it comes to "how", he was a little unaware of how to answer, or he didn't know what to say to be considered appropriate.
Speaking of which, since he traveled to this parallel world in his dream, he embarked on the sky journey of the world war as Victor Rezenov. With his repeated attacks, Long Yun, whose achievements have been improving, has been promoted by the fire and has been receiving promotion orders. In just a few months, he has become the youngest major general of the aviation army in Soviet history. He is not very enthusiastic about this rocket-like promotion process, and has a good reputation such as fame and fortune. However, now when he heard Malenkov's proposal to promote himself to lieutenant general of the aviation army, he still felt a little surprised and frightened. Is this promotion speed a bit outrageous?
As a former military academy student in the real world, Long Yun also has some understanding of the military ranks and military positions of major powers in the world. As far as he knows, if an ordinary non-commissioned officer wants to be promoted step by step in the army until he becomes a senior officer at the general level, he will have to go through at least twenty years of military career, and often the promotion of a school officer to a general this time requires some special experience or real results.
Although it was a war period and the promotion of military rank would not be rigid and dogmatic to be consistent with the peace period, he was surprised after thinking for a moment that he, or Victor Rezenov, had only taken six months to cross the fifth-level rank between the captain and the major general!
But this is not the most bizarre thing. According to the General Secretary’s opinion, is he going to be promoted to Lieutenant General again?
Thinking of this, Long Yun raised his hand and scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
Since he traveled to this strange parallel world, his activity principle has always been priority for combat. He only thought about how to temper his technology or defeat the enemy for the Red Empire. However, he did not expect that honors and promotions would come one after another, almost all made him feel a little unreal. Of course, if it is really unreal, this parallel world was originally an existence in unknown places; but whenever he was really in it and flew fighters again and again, the true sense of existence was absolutely not a trace of adulteration, and he could still be completely sure of this.
On the other end of the phone, the young man who heard the intention to promote was still stunned; on the other end of the phone, Malenkov, who had been waiting for a few seconds, continued to speak. Regarding Victor's silence, he was guessing whether the young man was too shy:
"Hey, are you stunned? Victor, I have signed the promotion order and can be stamped at any time; do you have any ideas? Just say it directly, but it doesn't matter, haha!"
"Uh...Comrade General Secretary, this is like this..."
