Great warships

Chapter 896 From 346A to 346B

Zhang Zhong said the show.

"Every audience in front of the TV, welcome to watch this episode of the program. Zhang Zhong said to block Suo." Zhang Zhong's figure appeared on the TV screen, as usual, capable and confident, and his words were calm: "We all know, A tragedy happened recently. The American Super Hornet wanted to sell it to the Asan Navy, but when it landed at the Asan Navy’s carrier-based aircraft training base, it cut off the blocking cable. The crowd who watched on the sidelines broke everyone's legs on the spot and suffered heavy losses."

The screen switched to the scene at that time, which was horrible, but Zhang Zhong's voice continued: "We all know that carrier-based aircraft are different from conventional landing aircraft. If you want to land at a distance of more than 100 meters, you have to use a special method. , the arresting cable is to use the most extreme method to directly hold the aircraft. This is also the most mature and reliable method at present. So, what is so unique about this seemingly ordinary steel cable? Today, we invite I invited Wang Dali, an engineer of Juli Group, a domestic manufacturer specializing in the production of arresting cables, and asked him to introduce it to us.”

The camera cuts over, and an engineer who looks a bit weak smiles: "Hello, everyone, I am Wang Dali, and I am currently working as the chief engineer of Juli Group. Our company mainly deals in various steel cables, such as the steel cables we export overseas. The gantry crane, the cables used on it are produced by our company. Our group is already the strongest enterprise in China and the world in this field. At the same time, our group has formed rigging, Liu Ling drunk, new energy , Juli Real Estate, and the five major industries of film and television media..."

"Wang Gong, tell me to stop the cable, don't have built-in advertisements." Zhang Zhong quickly interrupted him. If he didn't stop him, this guy would definitely introduce it for half an hour, although when the next editing time, these must be They have to be edited, but this is also a waste of my time.

Wang Dali nodded and changed the subject: "The arresting cable used by an aircraft carrier is not simple. It has to pull dozens of tons of aircraft and withstand a huge pulling force in a short period of time, so it must be made of special materials. Xiaoxiao We can take a look at its cross-sectional view. The blocking cable is like a twist, which is made of many strands of material. Speaking of twist, our Juli Group also intends to get involved in the catering industry. Welcome Everyone supports our Juli Food…”

Zhang Zhong was a little speechless, and gave him a blank look: "Wang Gong, tell me to block Suo."

"Well, at present, there are several countries in the world that have aircraft carriers, but there are not many countries that can produce arresting cables. Even the arresting cables used by the French Navy are purchased from the United States. This time Ah San had an accident. It must be because of the failure of the arresting cable. We know that Ah San originally used a MiG-29K carrier-based aircraft with a maximum take-off weight of 22 tons and a maximum landing weight of 15 tons. Let’s take a look at the Super Hornet’s maximum take-off weight 29 tons, the maximum landing weight is 22 tons, that is to say, the maximum take-off weight of the MiG-29K is equivalent to the maximum landing weight of the Super Hornet, and this time the Super Hornet is a transition, although we don’t know What is its actual landing weight, but at least seventeen or eight tons, it could have pulled the arresting cable of the MiG 29K, but it couldn't hold the Super Hornet, which led to the tragedy."

"Then Boeing's engineers, or Ah San's base personnel, didn't they discover this problem?"

"We have no way of knowing this, but from the current point of view, they probably ignored it, because they ignored the weight difference between the two types of carrier-based aircraft, or Boeing's personnel ignored Ah San's industrial foundation, which led to the accident. After this tragedy, taking advantage of this opportunity, our Juli Group expressed that we welcome Asan to come to our Juli Group to purchase arresting cables. Our arresting cables can easily complete the landing assist of J-25, and the maximum landing weight of aircraft is less than 100 tons. There is no problem, it has a life span of 150 times, and the price is cheap. Each blocking cable only costs [-] million US dollars, buy ten and get one free. Not as good as our arresting wires..."

Zhang Zhong was a little helpless, this guy is not engaged in technology, he is clearly engaged in sales!My loyalty program has never had a precedent for placing advertisements. This is an insult to my program!He almost stood up.

These must also be pinched off. After all, it is useless to advertise here, because it is impossible for Ah San to purchase blocking cables from the East. They would rather buy American goods at high prices than come to the East to purchase. It's okay to change hands there once.

However, this Wang Dali was too ignorant, Zhang Zhong didn't want to solicit business for him.

Ah San, Hansa Naval Air Base, Goa.

Sunil has returned and is standing where the accident happened.

The personnel had been sent to the hospital a long time ago, and the scene had been cleaned, but there was still a smell of blood in the air, and there were still brown things left in some invisible places, which were coagulated blood, and there were flies flying there Flying back and forth, the buzzing sound makes people feel irritable.

"At the beginning, we purchased our arresting cables from Da Mao, but Da Mao's asking price was too expensive, 100 million US dollars a piece. Moreover, this arresting cable is a consumable and needs to be replaced every 29 times. Therefore, we developed the arresting cable ourselves. Although it only has a lifespan of [-] times, it is still usable. The key is that the price is cheap, and the MiG-[-]K has no problem landing many times. How could it be possible to hold the Super Hornet.” Beside Sunil, Achim, the base's deputy who escaped by chance, said.

When the Super Hornet flew over, he was not at the scene, but commanded from the tower. It was because of this that his leg was intact. At this time, he was very happy in his heart, which meant that he could finally continue to fight for the super hornet. Go up a level and become the person in charge of the base here.

Luke was already lying in the hospital. The doctor tried it, but his leg couldn't be connected at all. Even if it was connected, there would definitely be no response. He would be disabled for the rest of his life, and he would definitely not be able to continue to be the person in charge of the base.

"Our arresting cable is unqualified, why didn't you find out earlier?" Sunil was furious. It doesn't matter if a group of domestic people are injured, and it's okay to die. However, several noble Americans were also injured, which is a problem. thing!
Fortunately, the Americans were not seriously injured, and the carrier-based aircraft was fine.If the steel cable is pulled over and the plane is damaged, the loss will be great.

"You have to ask Your Excellency Luke about this. At that time, I was only responsible for guiding the plane back." Achim immediately blamed it.

"Hmph, we'll talk about the responsibility later, what should we do next? Can our domestic enterprises develop qualified arresting cables?"

"I have already asked. They think it is difficult. It is not easy to manufacture an arresting cable that can help drop the MiG-29K. They have no way to manufacture more powerful ones. We need to buy them out." Achim said : "Besides, it's better to purchase from the United States. In this way, it can also appease the hearts of Americans."

This time, those Americans were injured for no reason, and there must be an explanation. Giving them a batch of orders for blocking cables can be regarded as compensation in disguise.

"Sourcing from America?"

"Yes, I have already asked, for 200 million dollars, we can purchase ten first, and the price is 2000 million dollars. With this money, they should be able to balance their minds." Achim said.

Sunil nodded: "Okay, then let's make a deal."

It doesn’t cost much to buy an aircraft carrier, but the various components on the aircraft carrier are really expensive, which is not something ordinary countries can afford. This is like BBA. Although some people have enough money, the thought of it is terrible. It is better to buy a Volkswagen Honda at the same price, after all, the maintenance is cheap.

"Also, although there was a problem during the landing this time, the fully automatic landing aid system installed by the Americans still played a very important role. Our future aircraft carriers will also need to install this system. This will not only It can be landed easily during the day and at night.”

Fully automatic landing aid system?Sunil looked at the devices aside: "How much?"

"A set of 5000 million US dollars is still very cheap compared to carrier-based aircraft."

Sunil felt his eyelids twitching. If this continues, the construction of the aircraft carrier will definitely exceed the budget!
However, thinking of the advanced performance of the Super Hornet, he was a little moved. No matter what, as long as it can be better than Dongfang's, it is worth it.

He sighed: "Now, let's go and see the plane."

Originally, after the Super Hornet landed, it should be the focus. Who would have thought that an accident would happen next, injuring a large group of people. Therefore, this plane was lonely, and no one went to see it. After the pilot landed, he also went to Eat and sleep, now, apart from soldiers guarding here, there is nothing else.

Achim nodded: "Well, let's take a look. This aircraft is still very advanced. We can see the cockpit from the outside. There is no instrument inside, and all are LCD screens."

The gangway was already set up beside them, and the two of them stepped up the gangway and looked inside through the bubble cockpit. Sunil nodded: "That's right, this plane is indeed advanced enough, it is the result of the latest aviation technology in the United States, and it can also Carrying a large number of offensive weapons, it is a fighter attack aircraft, which can meet our needs."

"Report, someone from the French Dassault company is here and wants to sell us Rafale fighter jets." At this moment, an adjutant ran over and shouted from below.

French?
Sunil thought of the other party's shameless behavior on the aircraft carrier catapult, and immediately shook his head: "We don't have time to see him now."

"The other party gave this." The adjutant picked up a card in his hand. The black magnetic stripe on it was very conspicuous. Sunil was overjoyed immediately, then climbed down and picked up the card.

"How many are there?"

"100."

"Invite the French guests to come over and talk in the conference room of the base!" Sunil was full of joy, forgetting all the unhappiness just now.

In the conference room, Dassault's representative Brock talked eloquently.

"For a medium-sized aircraft carrier, it is a very wrong choice to use a heavy-duty carrier-based aircraft. Our Rafale M can also take off with a ski jump. The maximum take-off weight exceeds 24 tons, and it can carry a lot of weapons and equipment. Moreover, the weight of landing is comparable to that of a MiG- 29K is about the same. Your existing arresting wire is enough, which can save you a lot of money. You must know that the arresting wire needs to be replaced frequently, which will be a huge expense for future operations. "

Sunil nodded.

"As long as you nod, we can fly the Rafale fighter jets to you at any time, and do ski jump takeoff and interception landing experiments in your base. Use your own arresting cables to ensure that there will be no problems."

Knowing that the Rafale fighter jets were coming for testing, Kenneth, who was lying in the hospital, was furious. They Boeing Company is so sincere, Ah San actually has other choices!These guys are really walking around on two boats, too much, too much!

He wanted to stand up immediately, and ran to Sunil to scold him, but the severe pain in his leg made him realize the reality again. For him now, it's better not to think about anything, and heal the injury first. Well let's talk.

The Super Hornet landed in an accident, the Rafale fighter disrupted the situation, and Ah San's carrier-based aircraft ushered in another change!
East, Yellow House.

"No matter which carrier-based aircraft Ah San chooses, it will greatly increase their strength!" a leader said.

"That's right, both the Rafale and the Super Hornet are excellent, much better than the MiG-29K." Another leader said.

"Can you think of a way to prevent them from obtaining this kind of carrier-based aircraft?"

"Why? That's good news for them to get this kind of carrier-based aircraft, especially the Rafale fighter jets. We have to cheer them up and let them fight for the purchase of the Rafale."

"Old Wu, what do you mean?"

"Is there a pit in it?"

Wu Shengli smiled: "That's right."

"What pit?"

"Speak quickly."

"Leaders, experts from the 14th Institute and people from Mingzhou Group have arrived and are waiting in the meeting room." An adjutant came in to report.

"Come on, let's go to the meeting."

"Old Wu, you can tell us quickly, don't keep it up."

"Okay, let's talk as we walk..."

In the conference room, experts from 14 institutes have already communicated with people from Mingzhou Group.

Xing Wenge's face was full of helplessness: "President Qin, you can take it easy, just talk about it, we are exhausted!"

"Tired?" Qin Tao smiled: "You should be enjoying it. After you originally developed the 346A radar, there was no follow-up research and development project. If there is no project, your team may even be disbanded. Now, we This proposal, but gave you a brand new project, you should welcome this project with both hands."

"Yes, it's true." Xing Wenge also felt emotional.

Since the establishment of the 346 radar project, he has been the person in charge of the project. Over the years, he has undergone numerous upgrades. The original 346 radar, because the technology was not qualified, used a combination of gallium arsenide and bipolar silicon hybrid devices. It is also backward air-cooled. On the 346A, the bipolar silicon with low performance has been completely eliminated, and a more advanced liquid cooling system has been used.

How this system will develop in the future is indeed a problem. Now, Qin Tao has provided them with a solution: continue to develop a more advanced 346B radar!

At this moment, the leaders of the navy came up with a smile. For some reason, Qin Tao felt that many of them looked at him strangely.

"The big guys are here, let's have a meeting. This meeting is mainly because Mr. Qin proposed the integrated radio frequency technology last time. We sent the specific requirements to the 14 institutes. This time the big guys came together mainly for the purpose of Coordinate." Wu Shengli said: "Now, let the comrades from the 14th institute introduce their pre-research results first."

"Leaders." Xing Wenge stood up, walked to the speaking position aside, connected his notebook, projected it on the big screen, and began to explain.

"After receiving the request from our superiors, we decided to continue to upgrade our 346 radar. This model is code-named 346B. According to our plan, it will be made into a dual-band phased array that combines the S and X bands. For the radar, the program writing for data processing has been completed."

Qin Tao's eyes lit up, this is more than half of the completion, the 14th institute is really awesome!

"Just like the plan set by the Navy, this system has a four-sided S-band phased array radar, which is also the main radar of our ship. It has the largest array and the most T/R components. According to our current plan , the number of components will be 346 times that of the 1.5A radar, so that it can have a search distance of more than [-] kilometers. As for the X-band radar, it is used for precise tracking. The area of ​​this radar is not large, mainly relying on Accurate positioning after receiving the S-band radar. Of course, it can also work alone when needed. After all, the size of our four-sided radar is compared with the S-band radar array. In fact, it is similar to the radars of some small shields in Europe today. The antennas are the same size."

Some European countries are reluctant to use large shields, so they use small shields. The search distance is only about [-] kilometers, and the performance is not as good as their own small shields.

"The two sets of radars share the same background data processing system. We will use the latest Godson processor to complete the data processing work, which can better coordinate and respond faster. At the same time, we have also set in the program special anti-jamming procedures."

On the modern battlefield, electronic warfare has become more and more common. The Yankees not only have the EA-6B electronic jammer modified from the A-6, but also a brand new electronic jammer based on the Super Hornet. Their fighter jets are also Being able to carry specialized electronic jamming pods will bring challenges to one's own side.

What should I do if I encounter electromagnetic interference during the mission?
Although with the power of the 346 radar, it is not easy to interfere with it, but everything needs to be prepared and plan ahead.

"We plan to use the most advanced adaptive sidelobe cancellation technology, code-named ASLC, in the radar. In the face of interference, it can adaptively correct the weight of the auxiliary antenna, so that the interference signal is output in the corresponding receiving channel of the main antenna of the radar. The power is the smallest to prevent the opponent from tampering with the side lobes of one's own radar." Xing Wenge continued to introduce.

This is the technical term of radar. Radar waves are divided into main lobe and side lobe. With the radar power of one's own side, it is impossible for the opponent to interfere with the main lobe, so the only way is to tamper with the side lobe.

When hearing this, Qin Tao suddenly spoke.

"I have an idea." Qin Tao looked at Xing Wenge: "Our radar is very powerful, is it capable of burning through the opponent's jammer?"

burn through?

Xing Wenge's eyes widened: "Boss Qin, you mean that a radar similar to the MiG-25 can burn rabbits to death? That's a false statement."

At that time, Lao Maozi produced the double-three MiG-25, and was able to mass-produce equipment, which frightened the West. At the same time, the MiG-25 radar is said to be very powerful. In order to reflect this power, many media They all started to render, and the main argument was that once this thing is turned on, it can burn the rabbits in front of it to death.

This is complete nonsense. The electromagnetic waves radiated by radar are different from those of microwave ovens. There is very little thermal effect. How could it burn the rabbit to death? Regardless of its high power, its radar antenna is backward, and the real radiated power is not high. It cannot be compared with the contemporary AWG-9 radar.

This is just a legend, does Mr. Qin take it seriously?

"No, no, that's not what I mean. If our radar antenna converges all the electromagnetic waves to one point, it will be hundreds of kilowatts. If such a powerful power shines through, can the opponent's jammer still work normally?"

Xing Wenge thought about it seriously.

"The shell of the opponent's jammer is shielded, so no matter how strong the electromagnetic wave is, it will not work, but the opponent's jammer needs to expose the antenna, and it is still possible to burn the opponent's antenna."

It’s not that if you have strong power, you can do whatever you want. There is a simple device called electrostatic shielding. The internal electric field is zero, and it is dynamically adjusted at all times. Electromagnetic waves will not affect the interior, but they can affect their antennas.

Qin Tao smiled: "I think I can give it a try. If such a strong power is irradiated, it may completely ionize the air near the opponent's jammer, and even cause lightning. I don't believe that it can't burn their equipment. "

With strong power, you can do whatever you want!It's not that electrostatic shielding can work, can it control lightning strikes?
The power of each component is not high, that is, tens of watts, but the number is too large. If each is calculated at 30 watts, 180 components, that is [-] kilowatts. Moreover, this is only the average power. If not Considering the heat dissipation factor, the power of the components is increased to one hundred watts in a short time, that is six hundred kilowatts.

The power radiated by the four-sided phased array radar antenna is on the megawatt level.

Xing Wenge nodded: "You can try it, Mr. Qin, do you have any other ideas?"

Qin Tao shook his head: "There is nothing else, you can continue to introduce."

Xing Wenge continued talking.

After introducing the dual-band radar for about half an hour, Xing Wenge closed the lid of his notebook: "Okay, everyone, I'm done."

"It's over? This is the dual-band radar. There is still a long way to our integrated radio frequency mast. Didn't we agree to use four-band radar?" A leader on the rostrum said.
