Chapter 2409: Kill tomcat

"The Grumman Company is betraying our country. If it is during the world war, they are completely collaborating with the enemy!" At this time, when the Han Chinese battleship Iowa arrived at the port of Han, In the Eagle Nation's Congress, Grumman is also being criticized most severely.
"Yes, we have to examine the wrong things that Grumman has done in recent years. We have to take punitive measures against Grumman and let them know that collusion with enemies is absolutely unforgivable."
Grumman had absolutely no idea that such a big and well-known company like them would face such a situation. They became rats on the street and received full accusations in Congress.
Although Grumman wants to avoid these accusations, they can do too little now, because they can't justify everything.
In the beginning, without their help, Han Guo could not establish a complete Tomcat fighter production line. Later, Grumman continued to provide Han Guo with technology, and even together with Han Guo, sold the Tomcat. To the happy desert country!
Recently, Grumman relied on its own influence to actually facilitate the sale of the battleship Iowa. It now appears that this was done deliberately by the Han people, and the Eagle people were fooled!
The congressmen who sympathized with Grumman had no way of responding to the current accusations. It should be because these are facts and they cannot be sophistryed!
"I think we should pass such a resolution, from then on, end the orders for Tomcat fighters from Grumman Company!" At this moment, another congressman spoke.
When the congressman was speaking, Pellehack, who was sitting below, immediately felt his eyelids jump. Damn, these hateful politicians actually used this time to attack Grumman!
The congressman who just spoke was from McDonald's. The F-18 bug from McDonald's is seeking to replace the Tomcat fighter!
The F/A-18 combat attack aircraft, this is a peculiar number given by the Eagle State Navy. The F at the beginning stands for combat and A stands for total. It is conceivable that this fighter is a multi-functional carrier-based aircraft. It was born even later, so it adopted the popular aerodynamic layout of side wing. According to McDonnell Douglas Company's claim, it has excellent air, ground and sea attack capabilities. As the most important carrier-based aircraft of the U.S. Navy, it has a wide range of uses. It can be used for maritime air defense as well as ground attack, and its cost is low.
But in fact, it wants to be proficient in everything, but it is all diluted. It is said that this aircraft has combat capability. After carrying a missile, it can't fly at supersonic speed. The interception ability is extremely poor, and it is impossible to use it. Bird, saying that it can attack, is not as powerful as a professional attack aircraft like the A-7. It can be said that it is almost a freak.
McDonald’s merger with Douglas originally thought it would make a big difference in the civilian market, but later discovered that Douglas was a cumbersome. Fortunately, Douglas was sold again. Now McDonald’s continues to count on military aircraft projects, of course. I hope their Hornet can occupy more markets.
Grumman simply doesn't like the F-18, thinking that this kind of slow bug is impossible to replace the Tomcat fighter, but now, McDonald's is finally going to work hard.
Now, the Bear State is getting weaker and weaker, and the Eagle State Navy’s carrier-based aircraft replacement is getting slower and slower, orders for Tomcat fighters are decreasing, and Grumman’s profitability is getting worse. If the Tomcat fighter is abandoned by the Navy, Grumman's life will be sad.
These politicians, they are simply going to slaughter their navy! Pellehuck cursed in his heart.
"No, our navy needs Tomcat fighters. This type of fighter has powerful interception and attack capabilities and cannot be replaced by a big bug." Pellehak said.
In fact, the F-18's nickname is Bumblebee, which is official. The nickname of Big Bug is obviously insulting.
"What fighters the Navy needs is not the Grumman company, nor the Navy, but the Congress." The congressman had an irrefutable expression on his face: "All of us here. We all know that the Tomcat fighter is draining the blood of our country. The operation and maintenance of this fighter is complicated and the cost is very high. Needless to say, the expensive procurement cost. The usual maintenance is astronomical. Our Congress will not spend money. Waste here."
When talking about killing Tomcats, some people will be very excited about the maintenance cost. At this stage, the F-18 is indeed cheaper to maintain than Tomcats, but after the F-18 continues to develop, the maintenance cost is also It is getting higher and higher, and in the later stage, it is even higher than the Tomcat, but no one said this. Now everyone has formed such an intuitive impression that Tomcat is the high maintenance cost, and it is more fuel-efficient than the island country’s car. The simple match is average, and it's right when someone says it.
What you purchase is not your decision, but the Congress!
"Furthermore, there is also our national defense and security. Our Tomcats have no secrets. The Han people are more familiar with Tomcats than our own. Could it be that during the war, we have to use Tomcats to deal with the Hans? Will they compete with each other everywhere and restrict us everywhere, the navy must have the latest carrier-based aircraft!"
This congressman is determined to kill the Tomcat, and his judgment is beyond doubt.
"This is impossible. We developed the Tomcat fighter."
"Yes, you developed it, but Han is now more familiar with Tomcat than you, and Han has improved Tomcat to a stealth type. What about you? You also plan to buy these technologies from Han to serve as Eagle Country. The leader of the aviation industry, don't you feel ashamed of this?"
This congressman said that, he is really right. The Tomcat you developed, the improved Tomcat of Han, has also been modified with a stealth machine, even more advanced than your own technology, do you have the face to say it here?
"That's because Congress is not allocated funds by us. As long as we allocate enough funds for research and development, we will definitely develop a powerful stealth Tomcat. The Navy needs us!"
The Navy needs a stealth aircraft, and the Navy will not equip the same aircraft as the Air Force. Therefore, Pelehak is still confident. After all, Grumman has been serving the Navy for decades, and the Navy does not trust it. Ruman, what else can you trust?
"If I give it to you, it will also waste money." The congressman continued: "Now, McDonald also has a plan to transform the F-18 fighter into a partial stealth, just like the Han Guo. It takes a small cost to greatly reduce your own electromagnetic radiation. Let the Tomcat fighters enter the grave. The future of the Navy needs the support of our Hornet, not the Tomcats that collide with the enemy!"
