Chapter 191: b21's Sudden Emergence

At the scene of Boeing's press conference.

Under the splendid hall.

It is an airplane covered with black cloth.

This immediately sparked people's imagination.

What is this airplane?

What is it used for?

What kind of airplane is it?

What role can it play?

Time passed minute by minute.

The atmosphere on site also gradually became tense.

Finally, a while passed.

Boeing's new ceo Feinikesi walked onto the stage.

He announced.

The press conference officially began.

"This airplane is pure hype."

"It is also the crystallization of ten years of essence from Boeing and Grumman Company."

"To manufacture it, countless engineers and technical workers have poured countless efforts."

"We once created something that shocked the world."

"Its name."

"It is called b2."

"The world's first stealth bomber."

"Once upon a time."

"Bombers could only rely on speed to exchange for an almost pitiful survival rate under missiles."

"They flee, they accelerate, they hope to escape the threat of missiles."

"Just like the White Swan Tu-160 of Maoxiong Guo."

"This method is really not elegant."

"Also really not dignified."

"Just like a monkey."

"So, our engineers decided to change this reality."

"We created b2."

"From then on, it became a nightmare, a nightmare looming over all enemies of Eagle Country."

"It is good."

"But it is old."

"Although we once leapt ahead of the world by several decades, those decades have now passed."

"Its successor has also appeared."

"It is, the one behind me!"

"b21!"

Feinikesi roared excitedly.

Then he stretched his hand toward the airplane covered with black cloth behind.

With his gesture,

The black cloth was pulled down bit by bit.

A exquisite airplane appeared before people.

Having the same design as b2.

Same wing-body fusion layout, same tailless flying wing design.

Same stealth design.

"It inherits all the advantages of b2."

"But it is even more powerful!"

Feinikesi made a muscle-showing gesture and said.

"A more advanced integrated avionics system."

"Allowing it to be compatible with Eagle Country's current military command system."

"We even equipped it with artificial intelligence AI technology, enabling it to make judgments like a mature pilot and more intelligently identify friend from foe."

"We also optimized its fuselage; when we created b2, due to the limitations of the era we couldn't showcase those aspects on b2. We have carried out all those optimizations on b21."

"Thank you for this great era, this beautiful future created by President Te Mei Pu."

Feinikesi knows well that only flattery at the most critical moments is truly useful.

One sentence, just need one sentence, Te Mei Pu will definitely be satisfied.

"Of course."

Feinikesi changed the subject.

"We have also done something even greater."

"I suppose everyone knows that the cost of b2 is extremely high."

"Even not counting the R&D costs."

The manufacturing cost of a b2 aircraft reaches as high as 2 billion eagle yuan.

Isn't there still a joke about this?

Feinikesi said with a smile.

A young guy flew a b2 into the river.

The goddess in the river said, "Young man, did you drop the b2 made of gold, or the b2 made of diamond?"

The young man replied, "I dropped the black b2."

Hahaha!

The meaning of this story is that a b2 is far more expensive than an equal weight of gold.

The joke is over.

The reporters and audience present all laughed out loud.

They have obviously heard or said this story before.

However, this story will soon become history.

We have successfully reduced the cost of the b21.

Even though its combat capability is even stronger than that of the b2.

What is its manufacturing cost?

Why don't you guys guess?

Feinikesi handed the microphone to the audience and reporters below the stage.

1.5 billion!

The first person said quickly.

1.8 billion!

1.4 billion!

1.2 billion!

After going around once.

Feinikesi said somewhat disappointedly, "Sorry, none of them are correct."

Let me tell you then.

The manufacturing cost of a b21 is.

600 million eagle yuan!

Feinikesi's words came out.

Everyone present was shocked.

In that case, one b2 is roughly equivalent to three b21s.

But a single b2 could absolutely not accomplish what three b21s can do.

This is simply, indescribably terrifying.

Moreover, there's even more!

According to our calculations, since the fuselage uses newer materials, the fuselage skin and stealth coating also use our latest developed.

With this calculation, the b21's flight cost is less than half that of the b2.

This is our newly developed b21.

The most advanced bomber now!

Feinikesi proudly announced.

Other countries don't have it?

A reporter asked.

How could there be?

Maoxiong Guo's Tu-160 White Swan.

An outdated piece of junk.

What use does that thing have?

Does it have stealth design?

Does it have a data link?

It can only do a low-altitude surprise attack.

A high-altitude, high-speed.

I'm telling you, in today's missile defense array.

It just approached.

A single anti-air missile went straight for its face.

And what the hell is a variable-sweep wing?

No matter how fast it is, how fast can it be? Can it be as fast as a missile?

Feinikesi said disdainfully.

There's also Dongda.

That's even more laughable.

Do you know what era the H-6 they use is from?

Huh?

Aircraft researched in 1968 and officially commissioned in 1969.

It's an old antique from the WWII era!

Want nothing, have nothing.

It's also a wrong done to their soldiers.

Flying on such a shoddy airplane.

I'd say they don't even have AI up there, not even an electronic screen.

And don't forget.

The H-6's prototype is that union's Tu-16 aircraft.

Guess when it first flew?

You don't know, do you? I'll tell you.

It was 1950.

How many years has it been now?

Bring out an old antique that's almost 70 years old.

I don't even dare to use it, after all it can be considered an antique.

Hahaha!

Feinikesi finished laughing.

Then the press conference ended.

Just as he stepped down.

His phone started ringing.

President Te Mei Pu is very pleased with you.

Please come to the White House now.

Te Mei Pu's secretary said over the phone.

Okay.

I'll be there right away.

Feinikesi dares not delay at all.

Immediately rushed to the White House.

In the White House office.

Te Mei Pu looked at Feinikesi before him, nodding in satisfaction.

I want to know when the B-21 can enter service.

As soon as possible.

I need to use it.

Feinikesi immediately said: "Mr. President, complete the deployment within half a month."

The first one should not be deployed domestically.

Deploy it in Juda.

What?

Feinikesi raised his head, somewhat shocked.
