Dominate South Asia

The trial voyage of a submarine is very dangerous, especially if it goes down, and you may not be able to get back up. However, the trial voyage of a warship is much safer, especially now that the warship has been built and is sailing across the ocean. However, now it is just a matter of modifying the combat system, there is no danger.

Chief of Naval Staff Zahar and others also followed Mhamad and boarded the warship.

On the bridge, the original anti-aircraft missile operating station has been replaced by a new operating station. Moreover, the original two people operating it have been replaced by the current dozen or so people, which is a bit crowded.

"Our system has a high level of automation and can determine the type and threat level of the target. At critical times, it can even lock the target. As long as the operator confirms it, it can guide the missile attack." Bai Xue said.

Electronic technology has progressed very rapidly in recent years, and Pakistan has trained a large number of high-tech talents. Everything in the development of this system is based on the most advanced technology.

Hamad nodded: "Yes, not bad!"

"Woo, woo." The four gas turbines at the tail have started to start, driving the warship to leave the port and sail towards the distant sea.

The atmosphere in the combat command center was very tense. This time, a test was to be conducted to verify the performance of these systems!

The phased array radars on all sides began to work, and countless electromagnetic waves began to spread towards the surrounding airspace.

Naval aviation base on the outskirts of Karachi.

"How's it going? Is the test completed?" said a young man. He was wearing a denim outfit, which looked like a popular college student outfit. The coat above had been washed and faded, and you could vaguely see it. On the back are printed the words Model Aircraft Association. He was the former president of the Model Aircraft Association. Hassan.

"It's done." Another young woman who was holding a notebook for testing said: "According to your request, we have set up complex procedures, especially at the end of the flight, special maneuvers will be performed."

"Well, although this is target practice, it must be close to actual combat. This is what President Hamad ordered us to do." Hassan said.

The rest of the people were also in high spirits. Today is a flight of a very large drone that they spent several years completing.

In this flight, this drone will never come back, because it is used as a target drone, but this is also the time to test their results! So, they devised complex maneuvers.

They were students of the former Aircraft Model Association at Islamabad University after graduation. They were recruited into the army and specialized in the development of drones. They were all very interested in this. He devoted the greatest enthusiasm to researching drone technology, especially the one in front of him, but he was an absolute big guy!

This is a real plane that shines like silver! You can see countless exposed rivets on the fuselage, with an air intake at the nose, wing blades on the wings, and two engines at the tail. This kind of aircraft was once a meritorious aircraft! The J-6 fighter from friendly China!

At first. Pakistan fought an arduous battle under Western sanctions, because the sanctions caused its fighter jets to become scrap metal and unable to fly. At this time, friendly China delivered the J-6 fighter jets to the Pakistan Air Force for them to fight. . Although the J-6 lags behind Indian aircraft, it is maneuverable and flexible. It has good acceleration performance and has achieved many kill results, making it famous in history.

But now, this kind of aircraft is old and has a nose air intake layout. As a result, it is unable to accommodate advanced radar, and the high fuel consumption turbojet engine makes this aircraft's airborne time very short. The combat radius is limited. With the large number of Pakistan's third-generation fighters entering service, these fighters that have made great achievements have also begun to withdraw from active service in Pakistan.

After retirement, what will these fighters do? Hamad found a use for them, which was to convert them into drones!

Pakistan's ground crews are already proficient in maintaining these fighters. Pakistan also has a J-6 overhaul factory. They are already very familiar with these fighters and the cost of use is very low. Add necessary equipment to turn these fighters into drones that can perform more missions.

Now, simulating being a target drone is only a small part of it. In the future, most drones will be used for battlefield reconnaissance, or to carry bombs for direct attacks. The advantage of this is that it can avoid casualties. Although the J-6 is old, it is getting stronger and can continue to exert its remaining heat!

Later tasks need to be gradually added. Now, we just need to change this kind of aircraft into an unmanned one, so that it can fly and perform tasks. This is the first task of these people in front of them.

The key point of drones is to have a smart brain. Not all of them require human remote control. Most of the time, they fly autonomously according to the program.

Compared with manned fighter planes, the change of this aircraft is the cockpit.

The cockpit was originally a place to accommodate the pilot. Now, the life support system has been removed and everything has been turned into control equipment.

This kind of fighter is hydraulically operated, so the operating rods, rudders and other equipment are removed, and the pipelines are directly connected to the hydraulic equipment. Those who operate these equipment are computers, and the computers can be used to control various flight movements.

If it is a fly-by-wire aircraft, it would be the simplest. You only need to input the instructions into the computer operating the fly-by-wire system. Now, you still have to convert it.

In addition to these, a large number of sensors are needed to sense the state of the aircraft and whether various systems are working properly.

And the most difficult of these is still the program! It can be said that this is just like designing flight control for fly-by-wire aircraft, and the difficulty is not ordinary. You know, even a simple takeoff and landing requires skilled pilots to operate. If there is a slight mistake, the aircraft will be destroyed and people will die.

There are also advantages. This kind of aircraft is very simple after all, there are only five control surfaces, and the flight control rate is also well known. After hard work, they finally modified this kind of aircraft. Of course, thanks to many technicians in Pakistan Aviation Industries, they also helped to overcome many technical difficulties.

I heard that President Muhammad was on that warship, waiting for his target aircraft to be tested, and of course he had to show the best side of this target aircraft! Therefore, Hassan retested it and set a new program, which was a gift to the warship.

Generally speaking, the first launch of the air defense system is almost pre-set. The target aircraft has almost no maneuvers. It just flies in the predetermined direction at the predetermined speed, and then the air defense system will do its best to deal with it and strive to hit the target every time.

Hassan is not so conscious. For him, this is a test of his target aircraft. He must make his unmanned target aircraft fly like a real aircraft! In particular, when it encounters radar beam irradiation, it can make complex serpentine maneuvers to get rid of the opponent's radar lock!

"Okay, let's start flying." Hassan looked at the plane and took a few steps back.

The young woman on the side pressed a button.

The multi-function camera at the front of the fighter accurately captured the runway, adjusted the front wheels, and aligned with the runway!

A roar suddenly came, and with the help of the ground, the two turbojet 6 engines started smoothly, the brakes of the wheels were released, and they began to slide slowly on the runway.

The ground crew on the side had their eyes popped out. This guy, without a pilot in it, is so accurate?

After aligning with the runway, the throttles of the two engines were fully opened by the computer, and a hot flame came out of the tail, and it began to taxi quickly on the runway.

Countless sensors were working at the same time. The speed of the airspeed tube and the posture of the fuselage were all closely monitored. Then, the computer began to operate the elevator at the tail to tilt up.

The airflow blew on the elevator rudder, easily tilting the nose up, and the nose continued to fly forward for a few seconds, and then the entire fuselage left the ground.

The entire takeoff process was like flowing water. Only the most well-trained pilots could perform such a flying action. The ground crew on the side couldn't help but applaud and cheer.

Hassan stared at the computer screen closely. Being able to fly is nothing. It has to fly to the designated sea area and take action at the same time.

The J-6 drone continued to climb and began to turn, flying towards the ocean in the south.

"The target aircraft has taken off and is expected to arrive in 20 minutes." Here, the Kidd-class destroyer has received the message, which is also the only message they have. The height and speed of the target aircraft were not reported in advance.

In order to prevent accidental attacks, the Kidd-class destroyer did not sail under the civil aviation route, but avoided it far away. If an accident of accidentally hitting a civil airliner occurred, it would be troublesome.

However, the advantage of the four-sided phased array radar is that it can monitor the entire airspace at any time, while the long-range warning radar needs to rotate a circle to refresh the data information. In this way, the efficiency of the four-sided phased array radar monitoring is naturally much higher than that of traditional radar.

Moreover, another advantage of the phased array radar is that the radar beam can be concentrated to a certain place at any time, increasing the power and firmly grasping the target. At the same time, the remaining T/R units can monitor targets in other directions to achieve effective control of the entire airspace.

The plane that took off from the Karachi Air Force Base was discovered by the phased array radar almost when it had just climbed to a thousand meters in the air. The atmosphere in the entire operating cabin suddenly became highly tense.

"Speed ​​800, altitude 1500, continuing to climb."

"Heading 030, already over the sea."

"Prepare anti-aircraft missiles." (To be continued ~^~)
