Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Chapter 295 Two New Fighters and “Domestic Bomber Manufacturing”

 Taiyuan, headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

 In the midst of busy production and war preparations, the time came on August 8, 1941.

Today is an extremely special day. The last decision in the Awakening Yonghu system, "Domestic Fighter Manufacturing," was finally successfully unlocked.

 Although the decision took half a year, its content and rewards are definitely worth the money. Not to mention the various bonuses given by new manufacturers, the dazzling array of various models of fighter jets alone will make people salivate.

 After all, no soldier can resist the temptation of soaring into the sky.

After closing the doors and windows and instructing Wang Dexing to guard the door, Huang He rubbed his hands and concentrated on opening the system in his mind.

 “Show me the new big babies!”

“As long as there are new fighters, the strength of the Air Division can definitely be improved to a higher level.”

"After the troops send troops to Suiyuan, both the Mongolian Army and the Kwantung Army will have to shed a layer of skin for me, so that you can experience the intensity of the Pacific battlefield in advance."

 The first model that catches the eye is definitely the close-range support machine that combines violence and visual enjoyment.

The starting model of this technology tree is an old-fashioned biplane with a very traditional appearance. The design details of the entire aircraft are full of the early style of Hawker Company.

 As a well-deserved antique, the Hector bomber that entered service in 1933 has long been abandoned by the times.

 Its various performances are completely insufficient in today's battlefield. Its maximum flight speed is only 300 kilometers per hour. It will definitely become the target of the Japanese army aviation when performing missions.

Weapons are also relatively shabby. It is only equipped with two 7.7mm heirloom aviation machine guns. The only bright spot is the two 50kg aerial bombs mounted under the belly of the fuselage.

Perhaps considering that this vintage machine that was put into service in 1933 is really unavailable, the Awakening Yonghu system actually directly opened up the production rights in a very user-friendly manner.

  If you want a production line, you need to unlock the practical scientific research slot.

 “Qi, the equipment is outdated.”

“The use of this thing is limited. At most, it can be used as a bargaining chip to exchange for some urgently needed resources in the border area.”

As a loyal fan of 7+ coloring games, Huanghe naturally despises old-fashioned equipment that has long been outdated.

After a rough look at Hector's basic data, he directly set his sights on the next stage of close support aircraft, the second-in-command of the Hawker Three Winds - the Typhoon fighter.

 It is a fighter plane that was born to intercept the Fw190, but it is famous on the European battlefield because of its efficiency in ground attack.

When a ground-licking aircraft can reach a maximum speed of 640 kilometers per hour at an altitude of 2,000 meters and 660 kilometers per hour at an altitude of 5,000 meters, ordinary fighter jets will never have the desire to chase and drive it away.

 The model provided by Awakening Yonghu is a modified version of the MK.2 type, which not only improves the reliability and stability during dive, but also gives the engine more power.

 The current Typhoon is equipped with four 20mm Western guns, each of which has up to 140 rounds of ammunition, which is longer than any fighter currently in service in the Air Force Division.

There are also various combinations of mounted weapons. Soldiers can choose two 227-kilogram aerial bombs or one 454-kilogram heavy bomb according to the needs of the mission.

When the troops attacked Taiyuan, if the First Air Division had such a big treasure, they would not have to bother inserting aerial bombs into the wall. Throwing a few more thousand-pound bombs could directly blow down the city wall.

Of course, the rockets that have gradually become a tradition of our army cannot be thrown away.

  If you are confident in your shooting ability, you can bring eight more Red Sun rockets to the battlefield. With such a ferocious close support aircraft, Huang He could imagine Fang Ziyi's excited face and the look of the troops stationed in Mongolia crying for their fathers and mothers.

“I remember that the typhoon that brought Ying was officially put into combat only after May 1942.”

“The Eighth Route Army was several months ahead of them, even ahead of the final modified versions of three models.”

“It’s good, and it can save money on production licenses. After all, it’s better to do less than to do more. It will save Fatty Qiu from calling us to collect debts after the war.”

 After complaining a little, Huang He moved his eyes to the fighter technology tree aside.

At present, two fighters, Fighter and Hurricane, have been unlocked in the system, and the next stage is our old friend Spitfire.

In Huang He’s vision, next year the main force of the Air Division will switch to Spitfires and Typhoons according to their personal development direction, while rookies and fresh graduates will continue to fly Hurricane fighter jets.

Based on the production capacity of the military factories in the system and the border military industry bureaus, the Eighth Route Army’s air force will soon enter the era of aircraft and other people, and Jin Province will definitely need to open an aviation school.

 The last aircraft type is the heavy fighter. The top of the technology tree is a twin-engine fighter that entered service in 1935.

The Blenheim has great upgrade potential. In addition to being used as a fighter, it can also serve as a bomber, night fighter and reconnaissance and early warning aircraft.

It’s a pity that Huanghe’s scientific research project is a bit scientific and has not unlocked any radio and radar-related technologies. Currently, the Blenheim can only be used as a heavy fighter and bomber.

 The model provided by the Awakening Brave Tiger system is MK.5. It has a range of 2,300 kilometers and a maximum speed of 428km/h. The comrades of the Air Division no longer have to be troubled by the problem of short legs.

In terms of weapons, the Blenheim is equipped with six 7.7mm Browning aircraft machine guns. Four of them fired forward in the belly of the fuselage, and two were located in turrets on the upper part of the fuselage.

Such firepower is definitely enough to deal with the Type 97 fighter jets of the Japanese Army Aviation. When the enemy changed to a more advanced Type-1 Falcon, Huang He started to replace the western artillery or 12.7 mm machine gun.

Its mounted weapons are two 227-kg aerial bombs, plus eight 20-kg melons, which can definitely give a little shock to the Japanese who have never seen the world.

  ·······

 After admiring the two new fighters, Huang He turned his attention to the decision tree.

 The bombing intensity of ground lickers and heavy fighter jets is not enough. To alleviate the Eighth Route Army's fear of insufficient firepower, it still needs professional counterpart tactical and strategic bombers.

The troops will definitely attack the Japs entrenched in Shandong next year. As long as they capture a few coastal cities, the Air Division will have the conditions to bomb the Japs homeland.

Although there is a high probability that they will not be able to attack before Doolittle, the troops can definitely put Li Mei out of work.

“Domestic bomber manufacturing: After mastering the manufacturing technology of single-engine aircraft, we can then begin to try to develop heavy-duty multi-engine bombers and use them in ground support missions.

Effect: After 180 days, you will gain access to all Royal Air Force bombers.

 Hint: Bombers include naval bombers, tactical bombers, and strategic bombers, but do not include de Havilland Venom, Canberra tactical bombers, and Warrior strategic bombers.

If you want to unlock the jet bomber, you also need to unlock other pre-requisite scientific research projects and decisions.

 Enabled manufacturer: AVIC Hafei

Effect: The production speed of bombers in the arsenal in the system is +15%, and the combat radius of close support aircraft, tactical bombers, and strategic bombers is +10%. "
