Military Industry of Great Powers: Build the Strongest Flanker

Chapter 130 The best beyond visual range combat platform

Zhao Guoqing looked around the JH-7 several times, asked about the power the engine could provide, and personally measured the size of the nose with a ruler. He even opened the cabin cover and checked the instrument panel.

After the inspection, Zhao Guoqing walked further and inspected the outline of the JH-7.

He mused.

For close combat, the JH-7 is definitely not good, but for beyond visual range combat, it is definitely an excellent platform.

The JH-7 can be equipped with a full-size radar, and can also be equipped with electronic pods on the pylons. The wing pylons are reinforced and can be equipped with medium and long-range air-to-air missiles, as well as anti-ship attack missiles.

"How about it?"

Zhao Guoqing nodded. It seemed that the plan of Institute 14 was about to change.

Mu Hu said: "We have been urging the General Staff and the Science and Technology Commission to establish the project. They are busy introducing foreign equipment and have not had time to pay attention to us. Chief Zhao, how much will it cost if your 101 Institute does it? The Air Force supplies you!”

Zhao Guoqing said: "...Don't we need to establish a project?"

Muhu said: “By the time they get the project approved, the day lilies will be cold!”

Zhao Guoqing nodded: "Institute 101 is a local research institute and does not have military research qualifications. The project should be placed in Institute 14. But Mr. Mu, there is something I still want to say in advance!"

Muhu said: "Say!"

Zhao Guoqing said: "The project requires technology and personnel from the 101 Institute, and it also requires local factories to produce some parts."

Muhu said, "That's no problem. Just tell me how much it will cost and how long it will take."

Zhao Guoqing paced back and forth and thought for a while.

The ADC/DAC chip can use the previous results and does not need to be changed at all.

The antenna array needs to be rearranged. The large nose of the J-H-7 can accommodate at least more than 800 transmitting array antennas. Compared with the J-7 phased array radar antenna, which cannot be turned, the antenna of this large nose can be about 30 degrees. The rotation angle can increase the rotation angle by 60 degrees from left to right, greatly expanding the field of vision.

The antenna has been increased by about five times, and the power must be increased by at least three times. Counting two engines, it can be driven, but the power supply circuit needs to be changed.

There is also the core computing auxiliary chip. The chip from last time is still used. The fire control program basically does not need to be changed. Just adjust the parameters.

The calculation only requires a major change in the antenna, a change in the power supply line, and the addition of an array steering control program.

The advantages of the 1533b data bus standard appear.

"How about it, General Master Zhao?" Mu Hu urged again.

Zhao Guoqing smiled and said: "Mr. Mu, we will have a plan in ten days, and a prototype in two months at most. What do you think of the progress?"

Mu Hu shook his head, looked at Zhao Guoqing, and said, "General Master Zhao, you don't want to amuse me, do you? Can you produce a prototype in two months?"

"I would like to issue a military order!"

Muhu looked at Zhao Guoqing for a long time to make sure he was not joking, and said, "Okay, how much does it cost? The Air Force will fully support it!"

Zhao Guoqing said: "There is no money for research and development. We have mature technology last time, but production costs. How about five million units?"

Five million is not expensive. Foreign models with slightly better performance cost more than five million US dollars and are still unavailable. What Muhu is most concerned about is performance.

"Can you catch up with the XKZ-01 mounted on the J-7?"

Zhao Guoqing was helpless and said: "Mr. Mu, with such a sufficient power supply and a large space, you compare it with the Type 01 on the J-7. Do you respect me?"

"How are the parameters?" Muhu looked a little anxious.

"Three hundred kilometers upward, and the gaze state detection range exceeds four hundred kilometers!"

call!

"really?"

Zhao Guoqing nodded.

"The Air Force will order 200 units first, and I will go out to fund them right now..."

Zhao Guoqing grabbed Mu Hu and said, "Mr. Mu, I don't recommend pretending too much, just having twenty units is enough!"

"..."

Muhu didn't understand.

Zhao Guoqing explained: "Mr. Mu, after all, this is a derivative of the Type 01. Although it can detect farther, like the Type 01, it is not immune to interference and cannot identify what kind of fighter the target is!"

Muhu finally understood and said, "You have better radar!"

Zhao Guoqing shook his head and nodded again. A more advanced radar requires stronger electronic technology. With the completion of a one-micron process and EDA software, it is possible to design an integration scale of up to 800,000 transistor chips and processing computing power. Compared with the chip on the J-7, it is thousands of times better.

This also provides a calculation basis for the complex calculations of active phased array radar.

This is also the reason why Zhao Guoqing has not promoted the development of full-size phased array radar, just waiting for this to come out.

Zhao Guoqing said to Mu Hu: "Not yet, but there will be soon!"

…………

Zhao Guoqing waited in the capital for three days. Director Liu Qing called him over again. This time it was not a one-on-one inquiry, but a joint meeting of various ministries. Zhao Guoqing saw that Mu Hu was also there and pointed at the deputy commander-in-chief. I'm just sitting in the third row.

Teacher Xiao Zhao didn’t know what stage fright was. He repeated what he had said to Director Liu Qing on the podium. There was no feedback on the spot. When he left, the leaders shook hands with him cordially.

Zhao Guoqing didn't know whether the Americans would succeed in the terrible peace model project. He went back home the next day and couldn't care about it anymore.

Back in Lucheng, Director Gao mentioned Cheng Fei's instructions to him.

Gao Changming said: "Chengdu Aircraft plans to launch the Super Seven Plan. This is a fighter aircraft for export. The purpose is to open up the export market in the third world. Grumman and Boeing may become partners, and the Pakistan Iron Brothers may also become partners. Get involved!”

Zhao Guoqing asked: "Has Chengdu Aircraft issued any scientific research tasks?"

Director Gao shook his head and said: "It has been initially decided that we will be responsible for the structural design, and the Americans will provide the engine and avionics. We can't get involved this time."

Zhao Guoqing nodded. At this time, he really didn't want to join in. Grumman was like a troublemaker. Wherever he went, bad things would happen. It's just right that Cheng Fei doesn't need them now.

Zhao Guoqing reported to Director Gao about the research tasks assigned by Kong Kong.

Gao Changming said in shock: "Five million for one radar, twenty units, worth 100 million?"

Zhao Guoqing nodded and said: "There is no problem with the design. Let's use the mature plan last time to manufacture this piece. The 217 Precision Instrument Processing Factory has made antennas in front of us. Let them do it this time too. I want to outsource the PCB board to Lucheng Electronics Factory. Yes, I have been to their factory. It was originally a military factory and the quality is reliable. As for the chips, the core processing plant can produce them. The final assembly will be carried out at the 14th factory!"

Seeing that Zhao Guoqing had a mature plan, Gao Changming was relieved.

"Anyway, you are the chief engineer, and it's up to you. On National Day, I only have one request. If the researchers from the 14 other institutes can do it, arrange for them to do it. You must also lead them to make progress together!"

Zhao Guoqing ran so fast that he had already left the other people in the 14th Institute far behind...
