The expeditionary force began to dominate Southeast Asia by recruiting defeated soldiers

Chapter 315 I want to import radios produced in Pegu, immediately, right now!

"By the way, what is the anti-interference capability of these two radars? Even if the enemy may simulate a false signal, will they be fooled?" Zhang Chi suddenly asked Qian Yangping.

The reason why Zhang Chi asked this question suddenly was because he remembered a video he had seen on Bilibili before he traveled through time. It was about how the White Eagle's electronic warfare aircraft had caused serious trouble to the air defense forces along the coast of Longguo.

That was in his previous life, in 94, before he was born. After the USS Kitty Hawk entered combat readiness, it launched an EA-6B electronic warfare aircraft directly in the high seas near the mainland.

These EA-6B electronic warfare aircraft used target interference with false signals, causing the coastal early warning radar to show that a large-scale fleet of 120 aircraft was approaching.

At that time, the Air Force's J-8II quickly took off to intercept, but when they arrived over the target, they did not see a single White Eagle aircraft. Only then did they realize that they had been deceived by the White Eagle's electronic warfare.

Therefore, Zhang Chi does not want his new radar model to be completely defenseless against electronic warfare interference.

Qian Yangping looked at Zhang Chi in surprise. He didn't expect that this young commander-in-chief was so knowledgeable about specific technical issues.

"We've thought about this a long time ago." Qian Yangping brought Zhang Chi to the radar command vehicle and pointed to a panel covered in colorful lights. "My colleague John said the Hans once developed something similar that could simulate the signals of a large aircraft group on their domestic chain radar."

"So we specifically designed an automatic frequency converter using frequency agility technology. Traditional single-frequency interference targeting radar waves is unlikely to be effective."

Qian Yangping said with a smile:

"Considering that future enemies may be able to reverse locate our radar based on the signal waves emitted by the radar, we have also specially designed a false target launcher that can be installed on the vehicle to act as bait."

"We've also established an electronic warfare equipment development team. The previous 'Great Flood' radio jammer was their masterpiece. That thing was quite effective in actual combat, right? Hahahaha."

"It's true that the devil is one foot high, but the Tao is ten feet higher, hahaha." Zhang Chi also laughed happily.

The Japanese's electronic capabilities are extremely poor at the moment, so Zhang Chi's many requirements for radar and electronic equipment are naturally aimed at the future White Eagle and Russian Bear.

In his imagination, if a confrontation occurs with these two companies.

These good things can give them a huge "surprise", and if they are not handled properly, they may even make the other party give up.

At the same time, far east of the Ural Mountains in Kazakhstan, in a confidential facility of the 20th Scientific Institute of the People's Commissariat of Defense Industry.

Alexander Mintz, director of the institute, was fiddling with a huge disassembled wooden box in his hands, his eyes fixed on the structure inside.

The wooden box was exactly the radio that Yuri, the special envoy of the Russian representative, had purchased from Zhang Chi's Radio Institute No. 9 at a high price after signing the contract.

As a pioneer in the current Russian electronics industry, Alexander developed the PYC-2 early warning radar.

Since the Lend-Lease Act of the White Eagle does not provide assistance for the entire radar system, this domestically produced early warning radar with an effective detection range of 150km can be said to have effectively filled the gap in the Russian air defense radar.

However, the PYC-2 radar has two major flaws:

First, all the vacuum tubes used to assemble the radar had to be imported from White Eagle, which could be a bottleneck at any time. (The Batumi Coordination Committee later really got stuck.)

Second, the stability of pyc-2 is too low. The vacuum tube will burn out within an hour of startup, and there is still a huge gap in technical level compared with Western radars.

And now, Alexander Mintz almost wanted to laugh out loud. As long as he had this radio in his hand, all problems would be solved!

As for how this radio came into the hands of Director Alexander.

Then I have to praise KGB agent Anna.

Although she hinted for a long time but never climbed onto Zhang Chi's bed, she remembered the huge demand of the Russian electronics industry for basic components such as vacuum tubes and transistors.

(The KGB's eavesdropping devices and radio locators themselves also require miniaturized electronic components.)

So she wrote a report and asked the KGB personnel in the rear to find experts to see if these "imported goods" could be used after receiving them.

After a few visits, the radio produced by Radio Institute No. 9 came into Alexander's hands, and he immediately felt like he had found a treasure.

Alexander carefully used tweezers to pick up a silicon transistor from the wooden box and looked at it in fascination, as if he was looking at his lover.

"It is 20%-30% smaller than traditional electron tubes, and its stability is more than ten times greater."

Alexander muttered to himself excitedly.

"A perfect creation. Compared to it, the vacuum tubes White Eagle provided us through the Lend-Lease Act are just stupid and clumsy."

As for the vacuum tubes produced by Mao Xiong?

It can't be described as stupid, big, black and rough, it's just a huge brown bear.

What Alexander didn't know was that these were just a batch of transistors that Zhang Chi instructed the production line to manufacture using backward technology, with the purpose of exporting them to make money, especially gold.

Of course, he would not be stupid enough to export advanced transistors from the 60s directly to Russia and the US.

He just wanted to slightly improve Russia's electronics industry to make the fight between Russia and the White Eagle more intense, but he didn't want to aid the enemy.

"Smuggled goods are still the best. I never thought the White Eagles would put their most advanced electronic components into radios. This is decadent and corrupt capitalism."

Alexander certainly didn't believe that the radio imported from Pegu at a high price was produced by the Chinese.

In his mind, such exquisite creations could only be produced in the West, and Zhang Chi was just a smuggling middleman.

"Immediately change the original design of the PyC-3 and completely replace the oscillator circuit and filter circuit with this type of transistor."

Alexander reluctantly put down the radio and turned to look at his secretary:

"Draft a report to the Foreign Affairs Committee requesting an expansion of imports of these transistors."

"About this." The secretary sent by his superior to assist him said somewhat embarrassedly.

"The Chinese in Pegu are only willing to export complete devices, and they only accept hard currency like gold. If we import on a large scale, each transistor will cost the same as its weight in gold."

"I don't care. My mission is to develop and produce the most advanced radar for the motherland to detect Nazi planes." Alexander adjusted the leg of his glasses and said coldly.

"How to communicate with your superiors is your task. That's what you were sent here to do."

Soon, the report was submitted to Mikoyan, who was in charge of economic work in the Defense Committee.

(Not the one who studies aircraft, this is his brother, the one who holds a truly powerful position, and one of the reasons why the MiG Design Bureau can be so evergreen)

"Spending precious gold to import a consumer product? A radio?"

Mikoyan wanted to send the person who wrote the report to the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately.

But when he saw that the report was issued by the 20th Scientific Research Institute and that Director Alexander had written in his own handwriting that this would help increase the effective startup time of the PYC-2 early warning radar tenfold, he still signed his name on the report.

"But it's not a good idea to keep importing. Can't our great alliance produce it ourselves?"

So another grant was sent to carry out the silicon transistor replication project.

Unfortunately, what Mikoyan didn't know was that if the Russians really had the ability to easily imitate excellent transistors, they would not have been so obsessed with vacuum tubes in the future.

(Russia has successfully shrunk a corncob-sized electron tube to the size of a peanut, while silicon transistors can reach the nanometer level.)
