Chapter 651 The Balkan Powder Keg...is about to explode again...
Hearing Ding Gaoheng mention Operation Desert Fox, Chang Haonan, who was just chatting here and there, his face gradually turned serious, and he even The movement of picking up the tea cup has slowed down——
It is already mid-February 1999, and the Lunar New Year has passed.
Although the timeline has indeed changed a lot because of myself in the past three years, in general it is still limited to the technical and business fields.
For example, according to Ding Gaoheng, the above have agreed in principle to the proposal to split the Aviation Industry Corporation into two according to business differences and establish the Aviation Industry Group and the Aviation Power Group respectively. They will be approved at the April meeting. , we will start to deal with specific matters.
The de-administration of the head office was originally a basic strategy decided last year. The other companies have already completed their reorganization. Even the Ministry of Electronics Industry has been transformed into an electronic technology group.
Only the Aviation Industry Corporation is left. Because the plan underwent major changes midway, it has never been finalized, so it has been delayed until now.
At the beginning, just like the shipbuilding industry system, the idea of splitting the north and south into the first group and the second group still prevailed.
However, as the progress of Turbofan 10 has been advancing rapidly, several other projects have also advanced by leaps and bounds. Even the Haofa Group, which has always been weak in technical level, has used large-part assembly to build it. A D336 prototype has been obtained, which is to be installed in series with an imported engine of the same model for trial use on the second prototype of the C808 in the future.
In this case, the plan submitted by Chang Haonan, Du Yishan, and Liu Zhenxiang naturally came from behind.
With the installation test of Turbofan 10 a few days ago, the relevant debate has disappeared directly -
The reason why a problem can be discussed must be because there are multiple ones, each with their own advantages and disadvantages at least on the surface. choice.
As a result, before the war of words was over, someone else came up with the results and stepped on his head to dance. There was nothing to argue about.
We immediately started discussing the specific details of the split and that was it...
To a certain extent, Chang Haonan extended the life of the Aviation Industry Corporation for another year.
But in any case, this impact is currently limited to the country
It has not yet reached the level that can reverse the general trend of the world.
So, what should come will definitely come.
Operation Desert Fox was an air raid launched by the multinational coalition in the Persian Gulf in December 1998 that lasted for several days.
Goal... Needless to say.
But having said that, although the United States is indeed unreasonable in this matter, it does not mean that Lao Sa is a good person.
Besides, for today's China, even with Chang Haonan's cheating assistance, it has just been able to protect itself, and it will not be as bad as the original timeline.
I am still powerless about things that are too far away from me.
Chang Haonan is concerned about the tactical significance of this operation.
It is generally believed that Operation Desert Fox can be regarded as a rehearsal for Operation "Allied Force".
And if nothing unexpected happens, there are still about 40 days until NATO officially launches air strikes...
Of course, the Balkan Peninsula is further away from China than the Persian Gulf, and the current situation is even beyond its reach.
So the possibility of completely reversing the outcome of this matter is really not very high.
But Chang Haonan feels that some of the processes can still be tried to be reversed.
After all, he has been preparing for this for almost two years...
In fact, after the GPS jamming equipment test is completed, the basic conditions are already in place.
But he has always acted as a pure technician in the past, and now he has to find the right time to change the topic to security issues.
So I originally wanted to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to find a suitable opportunity to mention this matter again.
Unexpectedly, on the first day back, Ding Gaoheng himself accidentally mentioned Operation Desert Fox.
Then it would be better to choose a day than to hit it. "Xiao Chang?"
Ding Gaoheng, who was sitting next to him, saw his tea cup in the air and remained silent for a long time. He also knew that he must be thinking about something. He didn't bother him at first and just poured and drank by himself.
But after a few minutes, I was really worried that he would drop the cup because he was so absorbed in his thoughts, so he started to scream.
At this time, Chang Haonan also organized the language in his mind:
"By the way, Director Ding, you just mentioned the EP3E thing, and I suddenly remembered it."< br>
Upon hearing this, Ding Gaoheng also knew that this meant serious business. He immediately put down the tea cup and his expression suddenly became serious.
“The GPS jamming device that Researcher Xu and I have been tossing about before should be considered to have completely passed the test now, whether it is fixed near important locations as a key defense, or installed on a vehicle or aircraft as a mobile device , can completely achieve the expected results."
Ding Gaoheng suddenly became interested when he heard this:
"Then your next step is to prepare..."
After all, this is. It's not a big project, but it is still very helpful for combat units that have become accustomed to the new three-on-three defense.
But Chang Haonan pretended to hesitate for a moment, then sighed and shook his head:
"Alas... When I first had the idea, I was actually preparing to finalize and mass-produce it and hand it over to the troops, especially the front line of the army. The command structure is used as a protective umbrella against precision strikes. "
"But at that time, I didn't expect that the final thing built would require a military GPS receiver for signal relay. Judging from the current situation, it was simply impossible in a short time. For mass production, only those two units can be used. Although the effect is very good, the effective coverage area is really not enough, so if it is given to the army, it will not mean much..."
This statement is of course just a foreshadowing. , just to make his behavior sound less abrupt.
In fact, from the very beginning, this GPS jammer was prepared to deal with NATO's "Alliance" operations.
Chang Haonan naturally knows very well that within a few years, satellite signal interference will become an almost useless technology.
If it weren’t for the time difference at this point in 1999, there would be no need to personally intervene in such a small project.
For his true purpose, two are enough.
Ding Gaoheng was not the roundworm in Chang Haonan's belly, so naturally he didn't know about these twists and turns, and he also showed a look of regret at the moment.
However, Chang Haonan was relieved:
"Don't think so, but any project that is in progress will definitely not be completely meaningless. What's more, you and Xiao Xu have already built the prototype. It's just that the conditions are not mature yet. It can be temporarily turned into a technical reserve. , Let’s talk about it later when conditions are met..."
Chang Haonan acted in a full set, with an expression on his face that was still a bit tangled:
"After so much effort, if I just switch to It would be a pity to have technical reserves..."
Ding Gaoheng wanted to try to persuade him again, but when he heard this tone, he realized that Chang Haonan might have other ideas, so he swallowed his words again. Wait for the latter to continue.
Sure enough, after a brief pause, Chang Haonan spoke again:
"Although it is of little significance for military purposes, if placed in some small but key locations, it can still have obvious effects."
Ding Gaoheng was a little confused for a while:
"Although this is the truth, two devices can basically cover a larger building and the yard. Basically, it cannot cover the places where it is needed, and it is useless to cover the places that are not needed... After all, the key There would have been facilities such as anti-aircraft artillery positions around the location..."
Of course what he said made sense, but his thinking was still not broad enough after all.
Seeing that the preparation was almost done, Chang Haonan stopped going around the bush:
"But these two devices have a very big advantage, that is, they do not have any physical damage capabilities. They are completely passive soft-kill devices. As long as the definition is slightly modified, they can be used as civilian devices or even for humanitarian relief. Materials, in this way, even if they are used outside our country, there will be no hindrance..."
Ding Gaoheng didn't fully understand it at first, but when he thought of the Desert Fox operation he just mentioned, he instantly It felt like it caught the thread.
"You mean, in the war zone... we can also protect our own people..."
