Great warships

Chapter 1171 Crush in all aspects

What to do next? Target, of course!

In the previous era, the performance of close-range combat missiles was too poor, so the pilot had to chase the target and fire at the target's chrysanthemums to ensure a hit. It was the same dogfight as in the propeller fighter era. But now, with the advancement of air-to-air missile technology, Progress, you can completely lock the target head-on, and then launch an attack.

Relying on the advanced helmet sight, you will definitely be able to aim and fire earlier than the opponent!

Just when Toktar thought so, the voice of the early warning aircraft came from the earphones again: "Call the painter, you have been locked and shot down!"

"What are you doing?" Bogosyan was annoyed: "You have completed the lock-on at a distance of thirty kilometers, and you can also launch missiles? Are you launching medium-range missiles? We agreed that this is a close-range fight. ! Close combat!”

The radar of the MiG-29K cannot be used, but the radar of the J-10 is still intact, so it has already sent various target data to the Pili- missile. The lock was completed at kilometers, and the lock was completed at kilometers. Launching and shooting down the target is not a matter of minutes.

"Our PL-10 combat missile has a maximum range of kilometers. Now it is normal to launch at kilometers when flying head-on." Qin Tao said.

Lao Maozi's main fighting missile is the R-73. The initial model of this missile only had a maximum range of 2 kilometers. Later, it was improved to the M10 version, which has a range of only kilometers. Now, the range of Dongfang's Pili- fighting missile has been Reached forty kilometers!

Fighting bullets cannot fly high and throw ballistics, this range is real!

Bogosyan was extremely angry, and then he reacted: "Our confrontation this time is about the performance of fighter jets, not the performance of missiles. Your recent victories are all based on the performance advantages of missiles. Not counting, this It doesn’t count!”

Qin Tao smiled, Lao Maozi was worried.

More than ten years ago, Lao Maozi's fighter technology was still quite advanced. They were selling planes all over the world, and even Dongfang had to buy planes from them. But now, Lao Maozi's technology is completely out of date, and he can't find it after being beaten by Dongfang. Bei, how can I let Lao Maozi accept this? Their anger can be imagined.

When buying an airplane, of course you have to buy matching missiles. When we introduced the Su-27, we also bought a large number of R-73 and R-27 missiles. The arrival of these missiles allowed the East to solve the urgent need for medium-range missiles. Now the situation is changing. , it’s the old Maozi’s turn to buy our weapons. It’s impossible for us to match them with their own weapons. Even if they open the weapon interface, we just have to sell our own missiles. After all, you old Maozi are too It is lagging behind and unable to meet the needs of future air combat.

As for Lao Maozi's cottage? Are you kidding me? It's just a fake rocket engine at most. Our guidance system is full of sophisticated chips. If you take it apart, you won't know the internal structure. To them, it's just a blind box.

The air battle will not stop, and Toktar will not admit defeat. He has become immune to the call of the early warning aircraft. At this time, he just wants to get closer, get closer, and then use his proud mobility to defeat him. opponent!

The distance between the two sides is also rapidly approaching, twenty kilometers, ten kilometers! Just when Toktar had locked the target and was about to fire, the target suddenly pulled up and flew vertically upward!

Can it launch missiles?

The R-73 has an off-axis launch angle of degrees. Of course it can launch at this time, but now, the target is rising vertically!

If he launches a missile, the missile will have to climb higher and will soon lose energy and fall. Therefore, even if the missile is launched now, it will be judged as invalid.

Don't be afraid, if the other party climbs, you will climb too!

Toktar turned on the dual-engine afterburner and began to climb rapidly!

It is very important whether the thrust-to-weight ratio exceeds 1. If it exceeds, it means that the fighter plane can climb upward effortlessly. If it does not reach it, the fighter plane's speed will become lower and lower when climbing upward, and eventually it will fall due to insufficient speed. When it comes down, although it can make a beautiful tail rush, it is meaningless in aerial combat.

At this time, as the fuel burns rapidly, the weight of the MiG-29K is constantly decreasing, and the thrust-to-weight ratio is also increasing. He can climb vertically effortlessly!

But... the J-1 climbed faster! Compared with its thrust-to-weight ratio of just over 1.3, the J-29 with a thrust-to-weight ratio of over was like cheating, accelerating vertically like a rocket. As a result, the MiG-K behind it chased farther and farther!

The two sides chased each other from an altitude of 5,000 meters to an altitude of 15,000 meters. Toktar finally gave up. He turned off the afterburner and leveled the plane. At the same time, he searched the sky with vigilant eyes. The opponent could not keep climbing. , will always swoop down again, and when he comes down, it will be his time to show off!

He believes that the MiG-29K is highly maneuverable and flexible and will definitely be able to defeat the J- in close combat!

With this confidence, he began to circle in the air.

In the base, everyone looked ugly.

The MiG-29K flew in front. After the J-29 dived down from high altitude, it had quietly caught up with the MiG-29K. If it were an actual combat, the MiG-K would have been shot down!

Bogosyan's face is ugly, what can he say now? Close combat doesn't count? He still wants to lose face.

He could only hope that the MiG-29K flying in front would find the enemy following behind as soon as possible and turn back as soon as possible!

After flying a few times, Toktar finally felt something was wrong. He looked in the rearview mirror and saw nothing, but he was still worried, so he gritted his teeth and suddenly cut off the angle of attack. limiter, then pull the lever back sharply.

The nose of the fighter plane rose rapidly, the flight resistance increased rapidly, and the speed of the fighter plane also dropped sharply. Soon, his nose exceeded ninety degrees and continued to increase to one hundred and twenty degrees. At this time, the MiG-29K is like a cobra!

This famous maneuver was created by Pugachev on the Su-27. It has performed wonderfully at various air shows and has been talked about by countless military fans. It has even been shown on the screen in some TV series. A feast for the eyes.

Although the Super Cobra maneuver was created on the Su-27, not only the Su-27 can do it, the MiG-29 with a similar aerodynamic layout can also do it, and has been performed at many air shows. , Dongfang’s J- has also performed this kind of action. It can also perform more difficult actions, such as falling leaves and the like.

But is this action useful in actual combat?

Some people say it is useful, because in actual combat, the enemy may be behind you, and you suddenly slow down, and the enemy plane flies to the front, so that you can counterattack from behind!

Now, Toktar is indeed an excellent pilot. He performed this maneuver during the confrontation, and then...

On the big screen at the base, red writing appeared again.

shoot down!

When Toktar did this kind of death-seeking action, Shui Mo, who was following behind him, just gave him a try, directly switched the weapon switch to the cannon, then pointed the hotline of the cannon at him, and fired a short burst of fire. .

Originally chasing behind, the projection of the MiG-29K was not very large, but now it suddenly pulled up and became vertical. The projection area is so large that it is simply a target for the cannon!

Shui Mo got addicted to air combat with cannons. After firing a series of cannons, he pulled the lever and pushed the rudder, staggering away from the MiG-29K.

The whole process is also very thrilling. If there is a slight mistake, there may be a mid-air collision. However, if you are a master of ink painting, you are not afraid at all.

Watching the J-15 fly past, Toktar immediately pushed the stick to return to level flight, and then he was about to chase after him. As for the news coming from the earphones that he had been shot down again, he had completely ignored it. I have three lives, and I still have three lives. Can chase!

Wait, why is the plane so slow?

The biggest problem with the Super Cobra maneuver is not that the projection area is large and it is easy to be sniped. The bigger problem is the deceleration!

What is the most important thing in air combat? It’s height and speed, which is energy! In the famous energy air combat theory, whoever has the energy advantage will have the upper hand!

And what about the Cobra maneuver? It is a way of consuming energy, so it is okay to perform at air shows. After all, it is very popular, but if you want to use this method in actual combat, you are simply asking for death.

That's it for now.

Toktar turned on the afterburner of both engines, trying to regain speed as soon as possible, but it was useless. He could only watch the J-15 disappear from his front hemisphere and then fly to his rear hemisphere.

Bitten again!

If it were in actual combat, he would have died countless times! This time, he watched helplessly as the J-15 ran to his rear hemisphere, but he had no other choice but to speed up. Only with speed can he have mobility! So he pushed the lever.

When the speed is not enough, you can dive down and turn height into speed!

On the big screen in the base, everyone watched the fighting process with mixed emotions.

It can be said that close combat not only tests the performance of fighter jets, but also tests the ability of pilots. In this aspect, Lao Maozi is still not as good as the Orientals. The reason is very simple, the training time is different!

Lao Maozi has financial difficulties, and pilot training is seriously inadequate. Elite pilots can only fly less than 70 hours a year! And what about the East? The East has developed. The average annual flying time of key units will exceed two hundred hours. The old fighter planes of the second and third line units can fly more than one hundred hours each year! The flight time of Eastern pilots has even exceeded that of the elite American aviation force!

If the training time is not enough, the skills will inevitably be rusty. The best pilots like Lao Maozi can't compare with pilots like Shui Mo who have not officially boarded the ship. It has to be said to be a tragedy.

At this time, everyone watched the air battle continue, from 5,000 meters to more than 10,000 meters, then down to a few thousand meters, and finally even close to the sea. However, no matter how much Toktar resisted, he was always suppressed and beaten. , which makes people very emotional.

If he loses, even the tough-talking Pogosyan has to admit that he has lost!

Whether it is beyond visual range air combat or close combat, the J-15 is suppressed to death. From the airframe platform to the electronic equipment and engines, the J-15 has an all-round advantage!

The fight didn't last long. The MiG-29K ran out of fuel and began to return. The confrontation ended.

"Everyone, when the plane comes down, we will pick up the pilot and go to have a meal together. After the meal, we will go to the conference room to summarize." Qin Tao said about the next arrangements.

"No, wait until the MiG-29K comes down, refuel our aircraft, and then we will go back."

Really unable to afford to lose this person, Bogosyan decided to leave immediately. He originally wanted to show off the performance of the MiG-29K. After all, it was the latest facelift with advanced avionics. He originally thought he could regain his place. , I didn’t expect to be tortured so badly.

Although Toktar was already tired, he was not the only pilot here. There was also a backup pilot accompanying the transport plane, so he could fly the plane back overnight.

"Why are you in such a hurry? We have prepared fine wine." Qin Tao said, "I originally wanted to have a few drinks with you."

When they heard about drinking, all the old men were tempted again.

"Then, let's stay and have dinner together, and we won't have to summarize the meeting," Bogosyan said.

It’s not easy to come to the East, and it’s not easy to drink the fine wine from the East. Now that you have this opportunity, you can’t let it go.

You have to drink, and you have to drink more. Be sure to get drunk so there won’t be any meetings!

The roar of the aircraft came from the sky. The MiG-29K landed first. When the wheels were sliding against the ground, the engine stalled and all the fuel was consumed. However, the J-29 was still able to stroll around and wait. After landing on the MiG-K, I performed a high-descent landing. It hit the simulated landing area and hooked the arresting cable. It was not easy to fly once, and I had to practice more.

The canopy opened, and Toktar looked at the J-15 with complicated eyes. Looking at the energetic pilot who came down from above, he was very young, probably around twenty-five years old. How could he fly so well?

"Mr. Toktar, aren't you going to come down? After we come down, let's go have a drink!" Shui Mo came to Toktar's fighter plane and shouted to him.

Toktar's eyes lit up: "Okay!"

For Lao Maozi, the confrontation is over, the next step is to drink, have a good drink!

Smelling the fragrance of Wuliangye, Toktar picked up the wine glass and poured it into his mouth like drinking water.

Cool!

Everyone else also picked up their wine glasses.

Bogosyan did not drink. He looked at the shaking glass and the people around him: "Nikolai, I have changed my mind. I support the Navy's purchase of Eastern carrier-based aircraft."

"Really? That's really good news!" Nikolai was very happy: "Bogosyan, our navy knows that our defense industry is important, but we also know that under a limited budget, we can obtain the most advanced equipment. More importantly! If we can produce such advanced fighters ourselves, we certainly will not support outsourcing."

Bogosyan nodded: "That's right, so you order two from the East first..."

You don’t need too many, just two are enough, one for the navy and one for Sukhoi. They will dismantle the aircraft to see what advanced technologies are used on it, and then it won’t take long for Sukhoi to Iran will be able to produce similar fighter jets.

When the Orientals copied their aircraft, they didn't say anything. Now, they want to copy the Oriental's fighter planes, and the Orientals can't object!

Bogosian made up his mind.

Nikolai had a wry smile on his face: "Bogosyan, you should know that if you purchase fighter jets from the East, you will definitely not purchase single digits, at least the size of an aircraft carrier air wing, thirty or forty. If you only purchase two aircraft, do you think the Orientals will sell them?"

You are not the only one who is smart. If you only purchase two aircraft, will the Orientals not know what is going on? How could I agree! If you want to purchase, you must purchase in large quantities, so that Oriental people will be satisfied.

At this time, after hearing Nikolai's words, Bogosyan also frowned: "Yes, the Easterners will definitely not agree, but we can say that the funds collected now can only purchase two aircraft, and the rest will be purchased We need to wait until we have enough funds to order the fighter jets."

Nicholas nodded: "Okay, I'll go ask you and see what the attitude of Easterners is."

Nicholas walked up to Qin Tao holding the wine glass. Although the J-15 was produced by the North, it was obvious that it had been handed over to Qin Tao to operate it. It was Qin Tao who had the final say on how to sell the aircraft.

"Qin, just now, Bogosyan no longer objected to our purchase of the J-15."

"Really? For them, this is really rare, but I guess they must have other purposes."

"Yes, they agreed to purchase, but they only purchased two aircraft."

There are many things that need not be made too clear. The significance of only purchasing two aircraft could not be more obvious. The Sukhoi Design Bureau wants to survey and imitate them!

Qin Tao smiled: "Okay."

This is a new beginning, enough to go down in history. Lao Maozi actually purchased fighter planes from the East!

Although there are only two, they are of great significance. How could Qin Tao disagree?

Nicholas was a little confused.

Facing Nikolai's puzzled gaze, Qin Tao simply explained: "The Sukhoi Design Bureau does not have that technology, and you, Da Mao, do not have that technology. The advanced point of our fighter planes lies in our electronic equipment. You have no ability at all." Copy it.”

The military industry has never paid much attention to intellectual property rights. Being able to imitate is a matter of skill. But in this field, Dongfang is already at the forefront of the world, leaving Lao Maozi far behind!

The core of the J-15 fighter is the active phased array radar. Even if Lao Maozi takes it apart, he cannot imitate the T/R components on it. So what is the point of imitating it?

The performance of various powerful functions also relies on the Loongson processor behind it. This processor cannot be copied by Lao Maozi. This is not a civilian version, but a model specially designed for military use.

As for the flight control system, it also uses advanced domestic electronic equipment. The signals are transmitted through optical fibers. It can also achieve cross-linking with the turbofan engine at the tail. Does Lao Maozi's engine have this technology? The digital control of the engine was a breakthrough only in 2015. Now it is given to the old man, and the old man cannot use it unless he comes to buy our engine.

As for the electronic jamming system, the export type is definitely different from the self-use type, and the inside is more sophisticated. As long as they take it apart, the system will self-destruct, so there is no point in imitating it.
