"Fighter missiles?" Professor Su said: "But the leader, the development of fighter jet missiles has almost reached its limit. We still can't find a way to increase the range without breaking the wire!"

Wang Xuexin understood what Professor Su meant by "limit".

The biggest bottleneck of fighter missiles is "wire guidance".

Although the wire used for this torpedo is made by Yingjiang, it can extend to dozens of kilometers in the water without being broken, but that is because the wire itself has a certain buoyancy and almost no force in the water...Gravity is equal to buoyancy , so no matter how long the wire is, it will not be torn off by its own weight.

But this kind of wire is different when it is used in the air and is still flying at high speed. It not only has to bear the gravity but also bears the pull of the strong wind, which makes the range of the air-to-air missile only a few hundred meters at most. One insurmountable difficulty: the wire would break.

Of course, Wang Xuexin thought about this question, and he only replied: "Don't the missiles of our air defense system need no wires? Why not move this kind of missiles to the plane?"

As soon as Wang Xuexin said this, everyone was stunned... How is this possible?

"Head!" Professor Su said: "The reason why our air defense system does not need wires is because there is a huge positioning system, computer and radar supported on the ground. If we want to move this missile to an aircraft, it means Then the positioning system, computer and radar will all be moved to the plane, this... the plane can't fit it!"

Wang Xuexin asked instead: "Professor Su, how far can the radar of our air defense system detect?"

"About 30 kilometers!" Professor Su replied.

"What if I only require it to detect ten kilometers or even closer?" Wang Xuexin asked again: "In addition to using a large number of transistors, can the volume be reduced a lot?"

Professor Su was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood: "Then, we can also use the same method to produce positioning systems and computers, reduce their size and weight, and finally install them on airplanes?"

Wang Xuexin nodded.

This statement immediately aroused heated discussions in the conference room. Some people thought that this method was not feasible, because it would definitely increase the weight of the fighter and affect the flight performance of the fighter. Some people thought that this method was worth a try because it pioneered the Anti-aircraft missiles brought into the air.

Wang Xuexin kept silent and allowed the researchers at the meeting to discuss freely for a period of time. After ten minutes, he made a conclusion:

"Some comrades worry that doing so will add too much weight to the fighter plane and affect the air combat performance of the fighter plane. This is right. But at the same time, we must also consider the power and range of anti-aircraft missiles!"

"If our pilots can destroy the enemy plane at a distance of two kilometers or even three kilometers, even sacrificing some maneuverability is acceptable, because at that time the enemy plane can only be passively attacked and has no power to fight back, even if it has better maneuverability What can I do?"

"Besides, if we are worried about the weight and volume, we can further reduce the weight and volume of the device, and at the same time, we can continuously optimize the algorithm to achieve this goal!"

"So I think this is the trend of fighter development!"

Many people in the conference room couldn't believe it, because what Wang Xuexin said could be said to have subverted the entire air combat, and completely jumped out of the mode of chasing each other with machine guns and fighting dogs in this era.

But Wang Xuexin is very sure, because he knows that in the future, the combat of fighter jets will develop into this mode, and they may even not carry machine guns.

But people always have this kind of inertia. They always worry that there are too many changes and they cannot control them. Wang Xuexin's changes this time are so many that they cannot imagine or even scare them.

"Regimental Commander!" He Zhimin said with some concern: "Your idea is good, and I believe it is right, but... now that we are fighting devils, we must consider actual combat factors. If the research and development is successful and the Devil invests in bf109, will we fall into complete passiveness?"

Wang Xuexin asked: "Even if we don't develop this kind of missile, won't we be passive?"

This question stopped He Zhimin.

The fact is indeed as Wang Xuexin said, even if the Eighth Route Army did not develop the air-to-air missile "La 5", it would still be inferior to the bf109, and would still be passive in air combat.

So at this time, a situation emerged. Regardless of whether the Eighth Route Army is willing or not, it seems that it can only develop in this direction.

At this time, Chen Jiefeng said: "I agree with the head of the team. If it was in the past, we would not have been able to implement this plan at all. It is impossible for relays and electronic tube computers to be moved to fighter planes. Now it is possible to develop transistors. And We have come to the forefront in this regard, that is to say, if our army succeeds in research and development, we will be at the forefront of the world! This will not only affect China's battlefield, but will allow China to gain an unprecedented advantage in the world , because other countries may not be able to catch up with us in the next ten years, including Sun Never Sets and Eagle Sauce!"

Wang Xuexin nodded secretly, Chen Jiefeng is worthy of being a young man and also a talent in computer field, he has more adventurous spirit than others.

Then Su Xin also agreed: "If we only have this choice, then we should not hesitate. The rest is to consider realizing the idea that the leader said. There may be difficulties in this, but we can make two-handed preparations: on the one hand According to what the comrades said, optimize the 'La 5' to reduce its weight and increase its flexibility. On the other hand, according to what the regiment leader said, move the air defense radar to the 'La 5'. Even the two do not conflict! "

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Because moving anti-aircraft missiles to fighter planes also requires weight reduction, and after weight reduction, some weight will be added. In the end, it is possible to move anti-aircraft missiles to fighter jets while keeping the weight within an acceptable range.

So this matter was settled in this way, and all the subsequent work was arranged by Su Xin, assigning tasks, personnel, and deploying equipment and resources.

Instead, only Wang Xuexin, the person who proposed the idea, was free and had nothing to do.

In fact, if Wang Xuexin really wants to do it, there are still many things he can do. For example, he can give Turing some ideas in terms of integrated circuits, directly bring computer miniaturization to fighter jets, or upgrade the CNC machine tools researched by Su Xin. Make the "La 5" fighter more precise so that it can reduce weight.



But because there were too many things, Wang Xuexin didn't know how to start.

Just as Wang Xuexin was considering where to start, the guard came in and reported: "Head, here comes Monlokov, and he wants to see you!"

To Monlokov?

What is he doing here?
