Chapter 681 (1/2)

The SH-1A, which deliberately ignored the armor issue, showed mobility and firepower to the satisfaction of Dowding.

Although he saw the data of armor, in his opinion, it was the original design. He didn't know that the thickness of armor before was four times that of the present, so there was no strong sense of drop.

Armor is a weak point. It has considerable firepower and maneuverability. It depends on what kind of war it is put into.

”Mr. brigadier, if you are interested, we also have the fighter plane, hellcat, the D-11 in service, which is one of the best fighters in North America.”

Seeing that Dowding fell into thinking, Johnson appropriately promoted other skunk products. The D-11, which was valued by the U.S. military, was the focus.

”I know.” ”But we have good enough fighters, the hurricane made by Hawke company. Maybe you should know more about it.”

The hurricane fighter, made by the UK's Hawke company, carries a liquid-cooled V-12 engine invented by Rolls Royce. Other information is not very clear.

It is said that the military is very satisfied with the fighter and plans to make it gradually replace the existing main fighters and become the trump card in future campaigns.

Although government politicians are optimistic that the war will be limited to controllable parts, the army still maintains a sense of crisis.

Not to mention the United Kingdom, even the American military across the Atlantic is also prepared.

Orders for DC-4 and dc-101 are also generated.

”Let's have a look at this.” Li Zitao looked at Johnson and motioned him to take out the materials he had already prepared.

”It's impossible.” Daoding looked at him with a ”ghost” look.

”Nothing is impossible, brigadier general. Our prototype will soon be completed. If you can stay half a month longer, I believe you will see its power.”

Li Zitao said with a slight smile that he did not expect the development of ”lightning” to accelerate so much, thanks to Tesla and Donald Douglas.

With the cooperation of the two, the progress of ”lightning” has been improved by leaps and bounds, and the prototype is already in production.

Relying on the powerful industrial productivity of skunk R & D center, Li Zitao is confident that the prototype will be put into production directly after the prototype is finalized, so he invited daoding to stay for a few more days.

”Well, I'll wait 15 more days, hoping to get a satisfactory answer.” The Taoist said firmly.

If the information in his hands is true, this fighter will be ahead of the times, and the current and rebuilt fighters will not be able to compete with it.

”Sir, it's time for you to think about how you can get Congress to approve the deal.” Money is a good friend. Li Zitao called him from ”brigadier general” to ”general.”

Don't worry about DC-4 and cd-101 orders. Dowing is here for them, and so are other expeditions.

As for the 1a and B models of the SH series of helicopters, daoding is also very interested. It would be a great surprise if the order of ”lightning” can be reached again.

However, whether the Congress can pass it depends on the negotiation between the two countries. After all, it involves national defense and the latest achievements, which are difficult to release in any country.

”I will communicate with China on this matter.” Said the Taoist with a solemn face.

As long as he can see the above data turn into reality, no matter what the cost, he will make the deal.

He thought that daoding would act only after seeing the real object. However, Li Zi Tao underestimated the importance and attraction of ”lightning”.
