Super Weapon Exchange System

This project has survived by exporting the J-8-2 to the State of Shah. However, the 6601 Institute will definitely not reconcile that this aircraft is a foreign trade aircraft.

How could the 6601 Institute, the big brother of the Han's military aircraft development, see himself degenerate into a third-rate scientific research institute? None of their projects are actually needed domestically. Of course they are not happy.

They are still lobbying vigorously.

When Qin Guan walked in, Mr. Gu continued to talk about it: "Until now, the imitation of Tomcat fighters is still very difficult. After the repair of these Tomcats purchased from the State of Shah, the production The new J-11 fighter jets don’t know how long it will take. Our J-8-2 is now in service. The Air Force wants to improve its combat effectiveness. The J-8-2 is the best choice."

Having said this, Mr. Gu stood up, walked to the front of a large-scale map, and said to everyone: "Look, our southwest, northwest, and this large airspace are almost undefended! This time! Bai Xiangguo dared to break into our airspace, just to see this problem, although this time it was shot down, next time, they might come from another direction!"

"We must have a sufficient number of fighters. Even if the J-11 is successfully developed, the cost is quite high. It is not as cheap as our J-8-2 fighter. How can we protect the airspace of our motherland? Only our J-8-2, It is the best choice!"

Mr. Gu said that, and many of the people present were nodding their heads. That's right, it makes sense.

The northwest and southwest of Han are almost undefended.

No way, the area is too big. More importantly, there are plateaus and mountainous areas. It is quite difficult to operate fighter units. Up to now, Han has no precedent for taking off fighter planes at plateau airports.

If you take off from the airport below and the distance is very long, you can't defend it at all. If there are not enough fighters to patrol back and forth, it is simply not enough.

Relying on Qin Guan’s foreign trade, Han purchased a batch of Tomcat fighters at the lowest price. However, the follow-up production will still cost a lot, even more expensive than the batch bought back. Is there enough economic capacity to support this huge Air Force fleet?

Although the Tomcats flew to the southwest this time, the most in need of guarding in the motherland is still the north. Almost all of the 79 Tomcats will be deployed to the north.

What to rely on to the southwest? Of course it depends on Jian-8 2!

The J-8-2 is also a heavy aircraft. Of course, this heavy aircraft can take on the important responsibility of guarding the airspace of the southwest, northwest and northwest of the motherland.

Qin Guan knew that this was indeed a problem, and it was the same problem encountered by the Soviets.

The Soviet Union has a vast territory, and most of its territory is where birds do not shit. It is too cold and it is not easy to operate an airport. Therefore, the Soviets specially developed interceptors.

Yes, the interceptor, exclusive to the Soviets.

Fighter aircraft refers to military aircraft mainly used to protect our air superiority and destroy the enemy's ability to use air superiority. It is characterized by excellent flight performance, flexible maneuverability, and powerful firepower; modern advanced fighters are equipped with various search and aiming fire control equipment, which can attack all air targets around the clock.

The main task of the interceptor is to gain altitude after flying quickly, and destroy the enemy bomber before it enters our airspace. Since the interceptor is aimed at a high-flying bomber group, the design particularly emphasizes the requirements for speed and rate of climb, and maneuverability is of lesser importance.

There is a difference between the two types of aircraft, but with the advent of the jet era, it is too expensive to develop a special type of aircraft, so multifunctional fighters are popular in many cases.

For example, aircraft such as F-15 and Su-27 can be called fighter jets with all kinds of skills in air combat, and they can also be called interceptors. They all have advanced large-caliber radars that can detect targets at long distances. , Can also carry medium-range missiles for attack.

However, when it comes to a dedicated interceptor, the first recommendation is the MiG-31, which is based on the MiG-25.

Although the turbofan engine was replaced, the high-altitude performance was reduced, and it could not reach Mach 3, but the fuel consumption rate was greatly reduced. It can cruise in the sky for more than 3 hours without refueling in the air. If you refuel, you can fly in the air for more than 6 hours.

At the same time, it also has a perverted and powerful phased array radar and long-range missiles, which can complete intercept missions of more than 100 kilometers, and even more perverted missiles in later generations can reach more than 300 kilometers. It is simply tailor-made for early warning aircraft. Killer.

In the vast territory of Xiong Country, this kind of plane is very useful, but it is a pity that the special plane is dedicated and cannot be used for other purposes.

Han Guo cannot afford a professional interceptor.

In contrast, Tomcat is more suitable.

The Tomcat uses variable swept wings and a maximum speed of Mach 2.35, which is not low. At the same time, due to the low fuel consumption of the engine, its range is also very long. Moreover, with the Phoenix missile, it is simply a weapon for interception. It can be said that this combination is already perfect.

In addition to the high cost, it is definitely not cheap even if it is made by itself and uses a large number of titanium alloy components.

After Qin Guan walked in, he attracted everyone's attention. Mr. Gu also looked over and said to him: "Mr Qin, we are studying the issue of J-8-2 guarding the airspace of the motherland."

By saying this, I am telling Qin Guan that we will stick to it. The J-8-2 must be equipped with the domestic air force. Don't try to stop us!

Hearing Mr. Gu's words, Qin Guan smiled: "Mr. Gu, can our J-8-2 hang Phoenix?"

President Gu nodded: "Of course it is."

"Where to hang?" Qin Guan asked.

Qin Guan didn't need to talk about the weapon interface. Qin Guan said the first one. Where did it go?

When the F-8-2 was being developed, it was actually aimed at the development target of an interceptor. It was a high-altitude and high-speed interceptor bomber. It was not a fighter jet at all, but a professional interceptor.

Now that Han has advanced radar technology again, it seems that it can really meet the demand, but this question Qin Guan only mentioned is the most important.

Where to hang it?

The undercarriage of the J-8 is located in the middle of the wing. As a result, the undercarriage must be recovered from the middle of the wing to the root of the wing. This wastes precious space, leaving only the belly of the aircraft.

However, under the belly of the J-8, it is reserved for the auxiliary fuel tank. After all, fighters like the J-8 using turbojet engines have a high fuel consumption rate. Only with auxiliary fuel tanks can they have sufficient range. Therefore, the final conclusion That is, there is no place for the J-8 to hang Phoenix missiles!

In later generations, many people clamored that the J-8-2 could be equipped with anti-ship missiles and had anti-ship capabilities. In other words, compared with various data, after continuous upgrading, the external capability of the J-8-2 has reached 4.5 tons! It can mount super anti-ship missiles like Sunburn!

Qin Guan only has one question, where to hang it?
