It is no exaggeration to say that now it depends on whether the country is willing and whether it needs it, rather than whether it can be researched as before.
And these transport aircraft can complete aerial refueling.
The design work of Yun-50 started after the Phantom Engine series was established. Although the engines of the two are different, many design concepts in Phantom Engine are common, especially the special fuel that can be shared, which is why its fuel consumption is so low.
Its design work only took less than 9 months, and the subsequent test flights and the current testing work lasted only a short time. The main reason is that breakthroughs in materials and technology allowed it to be finalized too quickly.
Of course, there is currently no large-scale installation in China, and it is not officially in service. Currently, only 3 Yun-50s have been produced, all of which are used to fly the Africa route. While completing different tasks, they are also undergoing its final test flight.
Yun-50 Jiang Yan Hai was not involved. He did not need to be involved in everything, but Jiang Yan Hai heard that the official model of Yun-50 has been determined, and these are all thanks to Pangu System.
As for Lei Zhan, they don't know this. They just know that the country's weapons and equipment are more advanced and powerful!
In the past, their main battle tanks were not transported by transport aircraft at all, but now, it can be said that if you want, the Dongfeng series launch vehicles can almost be transported by transport aircraft. They believe that day is not far away.
After the huge transport plane landed, 12 people quickly got out of the transport plane. Lei Zhan and the others immediately greeted them. Lei Zhan was not familiar with these people, but Tan Xiao Lin was very familiar with them. When they were training, Tan Xiao Lin and the others had served as some of the instructors.
"Instructor Tan." Zhang Qi and the others smiled and gave Tan Xiao Lin a military salute.
Tan Xiao Lin and Lei Zhan are already colonels, but they are all about the same, so there is no need to call them commanders or something like that.
"So it's you." Tan Xiao Lin said with a smile after introducing them first.
"Yes, it's us. Instructor Tan, are you here to train us again?" Zhang Qi asked immediately.
"How is it possible? This time we don't know why Brigadier Jiang sent us here." Tan Xiao Lin shook his head.
But speaking of it, Jiang Yan Hai has not held the position of brigade commander so far, and the position of brigade commander in Dark Blade has always been vacant. However, almost everyone inside Dark Blade has called Jiang Yan Hai Brigadier Jiang. Anyway, everyone knows what is going on.
"Really?" Zhang Qi was a little unconvinced.
"Why did I lie to you?" Tan Xiao Lin was speechless.
"We made a guess on the road. The 12 of us were specially gathered together. This wouldn't mean we have to go back to the drawing board and rebuild it again. I don't want to get bombed." Zhang Qi said helplessly.
"I really don't know about that." Tan Xiao Lin shook his head, "Let's go, I'll be responsible for picking you up. This time I'm not asking you to come over and rebuild. You see, this doesn't look like a training base. The boss is right here."
"The boss is here?" Zhang Qi was stunned for a moment.
Tan Xiao Lin nodded.
Everyone followed Tan Xiao Lin in the car and left here quickly. After arriving at the destination, Tan Xiao Lin took them and assigned them rooms.
Several people followed Tan Xiao Lin and they quickly arrived at the room assigned to them. The rooms were quite good, and this was indeed not a training base. It was obvious at first glance that it was more like a research institute.
And it's not that kind of secret research institute. Of course, the confidentiality level of this research institute is also very high. The difference is that it is built near the edge of the city. Overall, it is more like a large factory, but all the people responsible for security work are military personnel.
After the assignment was completed, Tan Xiao Lin took them to get familiar with the base. Because this institute has permanent security personnel, there are basic training measures including indoor training grounds, shooting ranges, etc.
"I will report my work later. As for what we are doing here, I think the boss will tell you then." Tan Xiao Lin said hello to the others, and then went to find Jiang Yan Hai with Lei Zhan.
When they saw Jiang Yan Hai, Jiang Yan Hai was reading a book and researching information. When they saw two people coming in, they immediately asked, "Are they here?"
"Yes, chief." Tan Xiao Lin and Lei Zhan both gave Jiang Yan Hai a military salute.
"Let's go, gather everyone to the Number 1 training ground. I'll come to you if I need anything." Jiang Yan Hai said simply, and started fighting directly from his chair.
"Yes!"
They followed Tan Xiao Lin to the Number 1 training ground. Jiang Yan Hai waited here for a while while Tan Xiao Lin and the others went to inform people.
In less than 10 minutes, everyone gathered here. After everyone came over, Jiang Yan Hai glanced around with a smile. Speaking of which, among the people who came here, there were no lieutenants, all of them were school-level officers.
"Okay, it seems that everyone is doing well. Each military rank has been promoted very quickly." Jiang Yan Hai couldn't help but smile and said.
"Chief, when you say that, aren't you mocking us?" Zhang Qi couldn't help but said with a bit of laughter and tears.
If someone else said this, they might be proud of it. The problem is, don't you look at who they are competing with.
Among them, the only ones with the same military rank as Jiang Yan Hai are Lei Zhan and Tan Xiao Lin, both of whom are colonels.
But they had just been promoted not long ago, and the two of them were much older than Jiang Yan Hai, especially Lei Zhan, who had rich combat experience.
Jiang Yan Hai was promoted to colonel earlier than Lei Zhan.
As for Qiao Dong Qiao Liang, although they are all majors, they have just been promoted not long ago. Not to mention the little girls Fire Phoenix, they are all Lieutenant Colonel and majors. This is because they have rich combat experience and have just been promoted.
So, can this be compared with Jiang Yan Hai? It can't be compared.
"Okay, I'm just joking with you. You guys take it seriously. I'm sending you here this time to let you participate in a training session and give you a chance to play..." Jiang Yan Hai was just about to speak when there were footsteps at the door and a group of people walked in directly from here.
Seeing the person coming, Jiang Yan Hai immediately shouted loudly, "Stand at attention!"
Everyone immediately made a "swish" sound and stood at attention in unison.
"Haha, what a coincidence, there are quite a lot of people." The person who took the lead was none other than Old Commander. Speaking of which, Old Commander seemed to be leaving soon.
"Hello, Chief!" Jiang Yan Hai quickly gave Old Commander a military salute. He did not expect Old Commander to come here.
After giving Jiang Yan Hai a military salute, Old Commander smiled and said, "Okay, we came here specifically to find you."
"Then chief, shall we go out and talk?" Jiang Yan Hai asked immediately.
"No, it's right here."
