"Gentlemen, although there is still a big gap between our weapons and equipment compared with the Germans. However, I believe that we can shorten these gaps!" President Roosevelt said.
Now, the United States has not yet participated in the war, and it still has the opportunity to concentrate its forces to develop its own strength. When the United States enters the war, their military strength will definitely be further improved.
"Yes, Your Excellency. The Army will increase investment in the research and development of heavy tanks in the future, and strive to start mass production of new heavy tanks within one year!" Lieutenant General George Marshall said.
The U.S. Army currently has a number of tanks under development, including the M5 light tank, the M6 heavy tank, and the M26 heavy tank. Among them, the M5 light tank is an alternative to the M3 light tank, and the M6 heavy tank is a tank that matches the M5 light tank. Similar to the M3 light tank and M4 medium tank that the US Army is currently equipped with. It's just that after seeing the power of the German Navy's Tiger and Leopard tank, the U.S. Army urgently proposed to develop a heavy tank that can suppress the German Army's Tiger and Leopard tank. This also makes the development of the M26 heavy tank in this time and space much earlier than in another time and space.
It's just that the firepower of the M26 heavy tank in another time and space can match the German "Tiger King" tank. But in this time and space, the performance of the German Tiger and Leopard tanks has been enhanced. Even the M26 tank may not be able to take advantage of the "Tiger" tank, let alone the German Army's follow-up "Tiger King" tank, which will be even more powerful!
President Roosevelt nodded in satisfaction. There is a gap, which is understandable. As long as he catches up, he believes that the US Army will be able to catch up with the German Army. In the next war, they will definitely not lose to the Germans.
"Your Excellency, in addition to the weapons used by the Army, the German fighter planes are also far ahead of the Russian Air Force and us. Specifically, General Arnold will introduce it!" Admiral George Marshall said.
President Roosevelt looked to the US Army Air Corps commander Henry? Harry? Arnold General.
Before, Henry? Harry? Arnold is the US Army Air Force Commander and Army Deputy Chief of Staff. When the United States began to make full preparations for war and vigorously develop its military power, the U.S. Army Air Force was reorganized into the Army Air Force, and the number of troops and fighters also began to increase significantly. General Henry Harry Arnold, also served as the first commander of the US Army Air Forces.
"Your Excellency, ladies and gentlemen, from the various information we have obtained so far, the various types of fighter planes equipped by the German Air Force are indeed much more advanced than ours. The fighter planes of the German Army mainly include two types, one is a few years ago The BF-109 fighter jets that have already been equipped with the troops, and the other is the FW-190 fighter jets that have only recently been equipped with the troops.
BF-109 fighter jet with a maximum speed of 686 kilometers per hour and a ceiling of 10,000 meters. Its weapons include a 30mm cannon and two 12.7mm machine guns. This fighter is very fast and powerful. In terms of comprehensive performance, the aircraft equipped by the U.S. Army Air Forces cannot be compared with it. Whether it is the main equipment P-36 fighter and P-39 fighter that we are currently serving, as well as the P-40 fighter that is being developed, the performance cannot be compared with it. Once an air battle breaks out between the two sides, our fighters will inevitably be suppressed by the German BF-109 fighters.
As for the FW-190 fighter, we have not yet obtained the specific parameters of this fighter. But what is certain is that this is a fighter with more advanced performance than the BF-109 fighter, and it is an advanced fighter that the Luftwaffe plans to replace the BF-109 fighter. None of our fighters can match its performance. "
Henry? Harry? Admiral Arnold said.
The faces of senior military and political officials in the United States are not very good-looking. The fighters equipped by the U.S. Army Air Forces are not even comparable to the German BF-109 fighters that are about to become obsolete, let alone the more advanced FW-190 fighters.
"And, according to the German fighter development habits, after the FW-190 fighter jets entered service, the next generation of more advanced fighter jets may have begun test flights, or are close to test flights." Admiral Arnold continued.
This makes the senior military and political officials in the United States speechless. Under such circumstances, how can they catch up with the Luftwaffe! This is undoubtedly news that makes them completely desperate.
"Can this situation be determined?" President Roosevelt asked.
"Yes, Your Excellency the President. We have obtained some information. The development progress of the Germans' more advanced next-generation fighter jets may have really reached the test flight stage. In this case, it will not take long for that new model to be ready for service. At that time, the Germans will have an even greater advantage!" said Admiral George Marshall.
"Then how should we counter the Germans? Should we let the Germans continue to widen the gap? In that case, how can we defeat the Germans?" said War Secretary Woodling.
"We will further increase the development of aircraft and strengthen our relationship with the British. The British have a great advantage in aero engines. If we can get their support, the performance of our fighters should be able to be further improved. said Admiral Arnold.
"Then contact the British and work with them to develop new fighters!" President Roosevelt said.
"Yes, Your Excellency the President." Admiral Arnold replied.
"In terms of bombers, the Germans mainly have H-01 medium bomber, H-11 heavy bomber and H-21 heavy bomber. Among them, the H-01 medium bomber is a twin-engine tactical bomber, while the H-11 heavy bomber and H-21 heavy bomber The bomber is a four-engine long-range strategic bomber.
The bombers equipped by the Army Air Corps are mainly B-17 heavy bombers and B-18 medium bombers. In terms of performance, they are slightly inferior to the German H-11 heavy bombers and H-01 medium bombers. But the gap is not that big. The B-24 heavy bomber and B-25 medium bomber we are developing can completely match the performance of these two aircraft of the Germans. Of course, the performance of the German H-21 heavy bomber is even more advanced. But our B-24 heavy bomber is not far behind it. Admiral Arnold continued.
"In addition, the German air force is also equipped with two bombers, namely the Stuka dive bomber and the Predator ground attack aircraft. These two bombers are all support firepower bombers for the army. Our navy equips Although the SBD dive bomber has poorer performance, it can still be used. If necessary, the Army Air Corps can also purchase a batch of such dive bombers.” Admiral Arnold continued.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
