Chapter 878： East Germany is developing stealth aircraft

Hearing Andre's question, Günter Lal couldn't help but scold this guy in his heart. He is so young, but he can see through things! Günter-Lar came to East Germany to communicate, of course, there was considerable resistance. How could the United States watch West Germany and East Germany conduct military exchanges? No matter what, it's no good for America!

Therefore, Günter-Lar had to explain again and again that the main reason for coming to East Germany this time was to see the current situation of Soviet military equipment. Once the two sides clashed, they could respond in time. Back then, Germany had already planned to invade the Soviet Union. Didn't it still send military attachés to the Soviet military parade before the war? Just to see the Soviet military equipment!

And now, of course, that's the purpose! Therefore, under this repeated reiteration, the United States finally agreed. However, it also gave Günter-Lar a lot of restrictions. For example, it was absolutely not allowed to have in-depth exchanges with East Germany, let alone allow East Germany to visit West Germany. , and, in a few days, the West German army will also conduct a joint exercise with the United States!

Although the US troops stationed in West Germany have been reduced, after all, the US is still the hegemon of the Western world! West Germany must listen to the words of the United States!

Therefore, Günter-Lar's visit this time was actually very embarrassing. If the original Defense Minister Manfred had not had a traffic accident, he would never have come!

Now, Andre is obviously provoking a conflict. Although West Germany doesn't want to be caught in a war, it doesn't want to go to war with East Germany, but West Germany definitely doesn't want to offend the United States right away! By then, the situation in West Germany will be even more chaotic!

Surviving in the cracks is not easy!

"Mr. Lal, you should show your courage and don't let other countries dictate your country's head. If you need it, our Soviet Union is willing to help." Andrei said.

This is even more provoking the contradiction between West Germany and the United States! Günter-Lar shook his head: "No need, our visit this time is just a simple military exchange, General Andre, can I go into the cockpit and feel it?"

Having said that, the two sides have already come to the front of the MiG-29 fighter. Compared with Western fighters, it is obvious that the Soviet fighters are more bulky and thick. For example, the skins of Western fighters are smooth, while the Soviet fighters, Mongolian The rivets on the leather are still exposed, but they look more powerful.

"Of course." Andrei said.

There are two levels of static display and observation cockpit. You will know from the air show of later generations. After many fighter planes arrive at the air show site, the cockpit will be wrapped up. Saw the secret inside the cockpit.

And Andre allowed them to watch the cockpit, of course Günter-Lar was very happy, climbed into the cockpit and sat on the ejection seat.

The instrument panel in front of him bears the same mark, and the instrument layout is similar to that of the MiG-21, which makes Günter-Lar feel a little surprised. Except for the larger radar screen, there is almost nothing to watch. .

Originally, I thought there was some high-tech equipment! As a result, it is no different from the previous aircraft!

"Our weapons are in the same line, and our pilots can adapt quickly when changing to new planes. These are all lessons learned from previous world wars." Andre said: "Up to now, our The number of second-tier MiG-21 and other aircraft is still very large, and the pilots of these aircraft are used as a reserve and can be changed to new fighters at any time.”

Andre's explanation is not unreasonable. The cockpit interface is exactly the same, which can allow pilots to adapt quickly. In later generations, the American f-16 constantly improves the cockpit instruments, even if it is a pilot of a new type, if it is changed to a flying type, it must be re-engineered. After adaptation, the layout in the cockpit should be completely different!

Günter-Lar nodded. As an old pilot who came from World War II, he had a very cordial feeling about this full instrument cockpit.

"General Andre, the MiG-29 is already considered a low-end aircraft in your air defense system, right?" Günter-Lar said: "We are also looking forward to seeing your more advanced fighter aircraft."

What are you doing here this time? Improve communication? Just an additional aspect, and the main thing, of course, is to look at the military equipment of East Germany! Günter-Lar's question is also profound.

Andre shook his head: "Mr. Lal, you don't understand the characteristics of our equipment. In the West, the f-15 is a heavy machine, and the f-16 is a light machine, with high and low matching. In our Soviet Union, there is no high and low matching. , our concept is different, MiG-29, mainly stationed in frontline airports, is used to seize air superiority on the battlefield. Its mobility is absolutely first-class, even if it is not behind in air combat with f-15, and Su-27, mainly Equipped with the Homeland Defense Air Force, it has a large range and mainly acts as an interceptor This is also the law we explored in World War II. And East Germany, deploying MiG-29 is of course the most suitable choice."

Hearing Andre's words, Günter Lal nodded, that's true!

"Of course these fighter jets are the latest fighter jets that have been in service, and we also know that the future sky belongs to stealth aircraft." Andre said with a sigh: "In this regard, the Western world has indeed come to the forefront. ."

Andre's frankness has won the favor of Günter-Lar. It is no secret that the United States has stealth aircraft. After all, after several wars, such aircraft have been shot down!

The Soviet Union, although advanced in technology, has no development project of stealth aircraft so far. For now, the information on the most advanced Soviet fighter aircraft in the West is the one designed by the Mikoyan Design Bureau at the last Moscow Air Show. That technical verification plane, the duck-shaped plane, is really amazing, but unfortunately, there is no stealth design at all.

"Especially, for an aircraft designed to provide air supremacy on a field battlefield, a stealth aircraft that can take off and land vertically is needed." Andrei told Günter-Lar: "Especially the East German Air Force is very It is necessary, and at the same time, to develop the East German industry. We have established a new fighter aircraft design bureau in East Germany, and now, we are developing a design for a stealth aircraft, entirely to guard the skies of East Germany."

East Germany is developing a new stealth aircraft! The news revealed by Andre shocked Günter Ralton.
