Chapter 703 Stealth Bomber
Stealth bomber! In later generations, Americans regarded the B-2 as their magic weapon. It can reach anywhere in the world at any time from its base in the United States. Moreover, this thing is invisible in front of radar. Although it has a larger bomb load, it has a very high stealth capability like the F-117.
The way to counterbalance this kind of weapon is to develop the same weapon yourself! Hearing Andrei's words, Andropov also saw the broad prospects of this early warning aircraft, and said to Andrei: "Andrei, your idea is quite good, but the fuselage of a large bomber is much larger than that of a fighter. Can such an aircraft also achieve the goal of stealth?"
Andropov still had doubts, but Andrei gave a positive answer: "Yes, of course, and it's not just us. After seeing the great use value of the F-117, the Americans are definitely developing the same product. If we don't keep up with them, we will be left behind at any time."

Andropov nodded. The current Soviet Union was no longer the Soviet Union in history. In the Far East and the Middle East, they had achieved absolute breakthroughs. Now, they had to suppress the United States and prevent it from turning over.
"However, if stealth aircraft dominate the world in the future, won't our air defense force be under great pressure?" Andropov asked.
Stealth aircraft are invisible in front of radar. How can our air defense force detect the invader in time?
"So, I have already thought of a solution in advance." Andre said: "Stealth aircraft are mainly invisible in the centimeter wave and millimeter wave bands. They are invisible to meter wave radars. Therefore, we must continue to develop meter wave radars to detect stealth aircraft."

This is not something that can be solved simply by applying a stealth coating. This is basic physics knowledge. Those reflective surfaces are ineffective against meter-wave radar because the wavelength of the meter-wave radar is close to the width of the opponent. In the eyes of the meter-wave radar, it is just a lump, not a complex shape composed of various surfaces.
Using meter-wave radar to detect stealth aircraft is also an idea of later generations. However, another disadvantage of meter-wave radar is its low accuracy. Otherwise, why would Western Europe and the United States eliminate meter-wave radar? This is because it can only detect targets and see far, but cannot serve as a radar for guided missile attacks, because its accuracy is quite poor, also in the order of meters. This method cannot guide the missile to a range where it can explode, and can only adopt command guidance, and cannot use semi-active or active guidance methods, because this requires a radar antenna with a diameter of more than meters to be inserted into the missile's seeker, which is obviously impossible.
Fortunately, Andre already had an idea.

"When we develop meter-wave radars, we also need to form a network. For example, three meter-wave radars, 500 kilometers apart, form a radar network. In this way, by superimposing the signals of the three radars and processing them by computers, we can improve the accuracy of the meter-wave radars and meet the needs of guided missiles." Andre said, "This is one of our ideas for fighting against stealth aircraft. I have provided this idea to the Air Defense Force, and relevant departments are developing it."
In later generations, various methods have emerged to deal with the threat of stealth aircraft. From the perspective of the technology mastered in his previous life, Andre believes that the current meter-wave radar networking solution is the easiest way to implement.

"Andrei, just go ahead and do it. Otherwise, you can take a part-time position in the Industrial Committee so that you can participate in our military industry development with a formal identity." Andropov said.
Andre shook his head: "Comrade General Secretary, the most important thing for me now is to stabilize the situation in the Middle East. Although the major wars are over, there are still many small local conflicts that will continue to break out. I am just making some suggestions. I don't have time to spare for the time being."

The Americans have withdrawn and the Middle East seems to be temporarily peaceful, but there are still many remaining issues. Andre's current focus is still on the Middle East.
"Yes, now, the Middle East is still our focus. Last year's victory was hard-won. Several times, our nuclear warheads were ready to deal with the threat of a full-scale war from the Americans at any time. Fortunately, the Americans finally admitted defeat. This victory established our Soviet Union's dominant position in the Cold War. If the United States loses the Middle East, it will lose the world. If I were Reagan, I would rather start a world war and drag the world's economy back a hundred years than bear to watch the loss of the Middle East." Andropov said.

The current international status and economic status of Americans are actually mainly determined by the petrodollar system and the obedience of these oil-producing countries in the Middle East to the United States! Now, the United States has taken the initiative to give up the Middle East, which means that the United States has given up its leadership in the future world! After that, the US dollar will gradually depreciate and withdraw from the world currency, and the ruble will take its place! Over the years, the United States has printed so many US dollars. Once these US dollars flow back to the United States, even if the domestic economy of the United States does not collapse, the US dollar will become waste paper.
Even if the United States has shale oil and can export oil to Western Europe, it cannot save this decline! The top leaders have already deduced that within ten years, the dollar will have to depreciate to one-third or even one-fifth of its original value! The Americans will completely lose their monopoly on the world economy, and the Soviet Union will completely rise!
After all, Reagan was just an actor. He had never experienced war and was not determined to maintain their international status by starting a world war. Bush, although a warmonger, oil was the lifeline of their Bush family. After shale oil was exploited, their family would become even stronger. Bush was blinded by family interests and could not make the most correct choice.
"It is an unstoppable fact that we, the Soviet Union, will win the Cold War, Andrei. I have been thinking recently whether there is a better way of propaganda to boost morale in our country, make our people more confident in the Soviet Union, and at the same time increase pressure on Western Europe," said Andropov.

Western Europe, the last problem facing the Soviet Union now is Western Europe! The situation in the Middle East must have frightened Western Europe. If more pressure is put on Western Europe, then perhaps some NATO countries will leave the camp and join the Red Organization!
"I have an idea," said Andre.
