Mr. Vaudric, who was sitting on the stage, smiled and raised his hand. "Well, Lynch, we are not here to declare war."
It was a very timely sentence. Lynch pursed his lips and nodded with a smile.
Next, it was time for the real discussion. Everyone kept raising some questions and then thinking about solutions.
They also talked about their imagination about the future, the forms and methods of war. Everyone talked a lot.
Some of the gentlemen in the audience also participated in the discussion. Everyone seemed to understand one thing — the future was in front of them!
Yes, the future was in front of them.
A three-dimensional war started by the flight research institute under Blackstone Airlines had arrived. You could shout that it was just a hypothesis, but when the bomb fell, the bomb would not discuss it with you!
In the end, people summed up some possible scenarios.
While this forum had solved one or a few problems, it had also added more problems for people.
However, it was a success. The next day, all the major newspapers used the same content as the headlines.
"Lynch and his Air Supremacy Theory."
For a time, even ordinary people began to participate in this topic on a large scale. Some organizations did a survey. More than 70% of people thought that "this theory is correct. We should not let enemy planes drop bombs on our heads."
However, 9% of people thought that "this is just Lynch's advertisement to promote his products. No one will bomb the Federation."
Some people thought that "Lynch exaggerated the facts. It is important, but not as important as he said."
A lot of interesting things were born from the collision of various ideas. For example, someone wanted to study a plane that would never land and asked people to donate money to him.
Some people thought that building a plane was not that difficult. They registered companies and hoped to obtain the right to sell arms to foreign countries.
Regardless of what the people at the bottom of society thought about these things, the international community attached great importance to the "Air Supremacy Theory".
After Lynch's speech and discussion of the value and significance of air supremacy, he gradually guided everyone to understand that no country should lose its "airspace". The international community sent various cooperation requests to Blackstone Airlines.
They hoped to entrust Lynch with the research, and some directly asked to buy the technology and assembly line of the first generation aircraft.
Lynch's words on the forum were very rude, but it had to be said that he had directly hit the nail on the head of many countries.
For example, some small and medium-sized countries with weak national strength had no time, manpower, material resources, or financial resources to research new air forces and the like after they had pushed their financial resources to the research and production of army and navy equipment.
Rather than waiting for a few years to finish the plan and start from scratch, it was better to "take it" now.
Continuing research and development on the basis of Lynch's first-generation bomber, although their foundation would never be separated from Lynch's style and characteristics, at least they saved time and money.
As for a military power like Gevra, they would definitely not be satisfied with being manipulated by Blackstone Airlines. They would definitely develop their own aircraft.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Lynch never thought that the Guevara people would listen to him when he talked about his own research.
He only wanted those who couldn't afford it or didn't have the time.
A large number of orders came from the international market, and the Flight Research Institute was also unprecedentedly busy.
Lynch sat in his office and talked with the chief engineer about the next step of the aircraft reform.
"The bomber has become the mainstream aircraft model in the world. It's bigger, stronger, and can fly farther. We can announce the fifth and sixth generation parameters to the public …"
The chief engineer raised his hand and indicated that he had something to say. Lynch looked at him and said, "What?"
The chief engineer said in a thoughtful tone, "Our fourth generation … The design drawings are not finished yet, the fifth and sixth generation …"
He smiled a little reluctantly.
He was not used to using the word "generation" to refer to the iterations between model parameters. As an engineer who was at least a "researcher", he preferred to use the word "generation" after the full range of iterations.
For example, when science and technology advanced a step, there was a breakthrough in the engine technology, and there was a better design blueprint. In short, it had to be a breakthrough in development to be used as a "generation".
Moreover, the fourth generation, which was the J-IV bomber, was only a blueprint. They hadn't even built a prototype yet. Wasn't it … too exaggerated to talk about the fifth and sixth generation?
Lynch shook his head and said, "You can calculate a reasonable increase based on the previous parameter changes, and then use this reasonable increase to bring in the data."
"This way, our customers can understand how strong our research and development capabilities are, and give them a 'norm'. This kind of power will make everything within our control."
Lynch didn't make it that complicated. In fact, this was to establish a standard. This was like a student who was lagging behind. If he wanted to catch up with a student who was studying well, he had to follow a certain level and catch up bit by bit.
Scores were such a level.
The same was true for airplanes.
When the countries that bought these airplanes or technology wanted to improve on the original technology, what would they do first?
Imagine some parameters or technology out of thin air and then research it?
No, they would look at the countries with the most advanced technology. Maybe they wouldn't be able to copy the technology, but they could find a "development direction with the accumulation of successful experience".
For example, bigger, more stable, and flying further …
They could find these "correct" directions and then invest a lot of manpower and material resources. No one would think that the development path of the world's most advanced science and technology was wrong.
No one would believe that Lynch, who proposed the "Air Supremacy Theory", would make a mistake in this regard.
Therefore, people would regard some of the parameters published by the Flight Research Institute as a development trend for future bombers …
The chief engineer was not a capitalist, so he didn't know the situation.
He was also not a politician, so he couldn't understand strategy and tactics. There was never a "positive" way to express it.
Deceiving the enemy and winning more easily was their core!
After seeing that the chief engineer understood, Lynch asked again, "How is our fighter jet?"
"The prototype of the Lin-Ii has been produced. We are trying various tests. By the end of the year or next year, we should be able to produce the Lin-Iii."
The chief engineer was a little interested. Compared to the relatively "simple" parameters of a bomber, a fighter jet was more complicated.
It had to adapt to more extreme environments because the initial purpose of its design was not to be blindly large like a bomber.
It had to be able to perform a variety of movements in the air and be able to effectively attack other aircraft.
In the "Air Supremacy Theory," Lynch talked a lot about the method of blocking ground invasion from the air, but he didn't talk about the method of obtaining air supremacy from the air.
Of course, this might be because his "vision" was limited, but it was more likely that he wanted to send a wrong signal.
As for whether or not anyone would want to develop a fighter jet … there might be. There would always be someone who would think of it. However, it would be very difficult to catch up with Lynch's speed.
Lynch was very satisfied with the progress of the fighter jet development. "If you need money, you can write a report for me. Don't save money for me!"
He paused. "I have a good relationship with the governor of York. They invited me to develop there. They intend to promote the development of a pillar industry with me as the core. What do you think about moving the research institute and aircraft manufacturing there?"
The chief engineer was stunned for a moment. He thought seriously for a while. "It's not impossible … But you know, Mr. Lynch, Buen is the core of the Federation. Any new technology will be first applied here."
"I'm not against building a factory in York, but it's better not to move the research institute."
After listening, Lynch thought seriously for a few seconds. He pointed to the chief engineer. "You're right. Then we'll do as you say."
"The factory here won't be demolished for the time being. It can provide convenience for us to continue to manufacture prototypes. Find someone to build the factory in York. I hope to be able to build the factory in the third quarter of this year."
The chief engineer agreed. These things were not complicated. With the support of the local government, many things were much easier than expected.
Solving some small research problems — Lynch was always called the "Man of Magic" by scientists. Especially when these researchers and scientists got his patent for the synchronizer, they were deeply shocked by Lynch's ability.
Two or three years ago, he independently completed the sketch of the synchronizer, which solved the problem of using weapons on single-propeller aircraft!
So sometimes, when they encountered some small problems in the research process, they would ask Lynch for help.
Sometimes, Lynch could give them a general direction, and that was enough for them.
Many times, scientific progress could not be made not because of a lack of research ability, but because they could not find the direction in the sea of unknowns.
As long as they found the direction, research was not a problem at all!
The entire international community was still shocked by the bombing of Marillo, and by Lynch's "Air Supremacy Theory". The Blackstone Security team had regrouped and continued to move north.
There was now only a little more than a month left before Lynch's request. They had to arrive at the predetermined location in early June, or they would miss out on many things.
Just as Ryan continued to move north with his injured body, the value of gold once again fell sharply.
A daily decline of more than six percent was an indescribable pain for many people who held gold!
Falling and rising were two different things!
And this day happened to be the day the Silver Alliance was established!
