Military Industry of Great Powers: Build the Strongest Flanker

An air force base in Hainan.

Chief test pilot Deng Qiwei took off in a brand-new Flying Leopard fighter jet.

The instrument panel in front of me is also different from before. Most of the large and small circular instrument panels have been replaced by three TV-like CRT monitors in front of me.

Fire control information, radar information, and some flight data are intuitively displayed on the display.

Deng Qiwei turned his head and saw from the corner of his eye two pairs of missiles, each large and small, mounted under the wings.

Bashi!

The voice of the command center came from the earphones.

"Dongguaiguai, dongguaiguai, immediately actively search for the target, actively search for the target!"

"Dong Guaguai understands."

Deng Qiwei immediately turned on the radar, and the oval-shaped radar display screen lit up immediately, covered with snowflakes. Within two or three seconds, the snowflakes disappeared and the display screen became clear.

…………

At a training ground nearly 200 kilometers away from the air force base, a target drone on the launcher is as tall as a person and has a wingspan of more than three meters. It is equipped with two rocket boosters and can stay in the air for about five minutes. Its maximum speed can Reaching Mach One.

This kind of target drone has no navigation system, only rocket acceleration and inertial flight.

Instigate... instigate...

With blazing red tail flames, the target drone quickly took off...

…

Two bright spots soon appeared on the radar screen. The weapon system on the left screen showed two available medium-range air-to-air missiles.

Deng Qiwei pressed the number to lock the target. The target was quickly marked in the two frames, and the radar beeped.

This sound indicates that the radar has locked onto the target and is connected to the fire control system to transmit real-time data to the air-to-air missile's computer.

"Target found! Target found, locked, Dong Guaguai requests attack, requests attack!"

"attack!"

Huh...huh...

Two air-to-air missiles were fired at the same time. Deng Qiwei could see that the two medium-range air-to-air missiles looked different, and one of them was obviously much slower.

"Target No. 1 enters active guidance!"

"Target No. 2 enters active guidance!"

Boom...boom...

Within the predetermined area, the observer observed two gorgeous "fireworks" through the telescope. As calm returned to the radar, Deng Qiwei confirmed again and again and reported: "The target has been destroyed, the target has been destroyed! Dong Guaiguai requested to return. Please advise!"

"Return!"

"Dong Guaguai understands!"

…

At this time, the command center was filled with joy.

Today's joint test includes the fire control radar locking two targets at the same time, attacking the two targets at the same time, using two different types of air-to-air missiles, and using beyond visual range attacks.

The target to be hit is using a subsonic target drone, which is much more difficult than the previous balloon shooting.

As for the two air-to-air radars, one is the Aspad medium-range air-to-air missile imported from Italy, and the other is the R530 modified medium-range air-to-air missile.

"The performance of the R530 is very stable, especially at the no-escape distance. After the second-level activation is started, the stability is even better than that of Aspad!"

With one terminal infrared guidance and one terminal laser radar guidance, the Air Force suddenly obtained two powerful weapons. Although the R530 modification has many shortcomings, it is invincible at the terminal and has already won the consensus of the Air Force.

Muhu was very happy. He still remembered what Zhao Guoqing said.

"Combining the advantages of Aspad's high speed and high maneuverability with the excellent navigation system of the R530, it will be awesome!"

Air Force Staff Officer Hai Guihong said with a smile: "I'm afraid it's not that easy!"

Muhu was full of confidence and said: "If others say it, I don't believe it, but if Guo Qing says it, I believe it. He can definitely do it!"

Hai Guihong said: "Haha, yes, Mr. Mu, I heard that the Navy is also interested in terminal lidar guidance and wants to use it on the Eagle Strike 6 missile. We are currently doing demonstrations!"

China does not have excellent anti-ship missiles. The Eagle Strike 6 currently used was invented by itself. It has a range of 100 kilometers, flies at subsonic speed, and uses Mao Xiong TV guidance at the end.

What is TV guidance? To put it simply, the missile seeker is a TV camera. It uses radar to semi-actively guide it to the end. Then the camera is turned on and the picture is transmitted to the fighter plane through long waves. The fighter plane uses the picture to manually control the missile to complete the target. Ship attack.

This guidance method is fine for attacking stationary targets, but it is a nightmare to attack moving ships. The missile is not so easy to control. It is a nightmare for the pilot to control the missile while flying the aircraft. Moreover, the long wave is extremely easy to be interfered. In a harsh electromagnetic environment, basically if the missile is fired, you won’t know where it will go.

The infrared signal of a ship is not obvious, so it is not suitable for infrared seekers. However, laser radar can perfectly solve this problem.

Mu Hu smiled and said: "It's a good thing, they also want to put our radar on the ship!"

Hai Guihong said: "Not only the navy, but also the army has put our radars on trucks. The detection range of the Thor artillery radar just imported from the United States is not that far. Using our radars and the American fire control system, they can also You can think of it..."

Chinese military workers have a very strong sense of urgency at this time, and the reverse engineering, digestion, demonstration, and equipment of new equipment and new technologies are often intertwined.

For example, the Flying Leopard fighter piloted by Deng Qiwei uses an American screen display and American navigation system, and the telex system is also equipped with a domestic four-degree optical fiber transmission telex. However, the fiber optic telex is only a simulation test and does not participate in it. In terms of actual control, the control of the fighter jet is still the original hydraulic mechanical control.

The four-degree redundant optical fiber telex is installed just to demonstrate reliability.

As for the air combat missiles mounted on the Flying Leopard fighter jets, they are the Pili 8 air-to-air missiles that we have just mass-produced.

The core part is the infrared detection chip of Institute 101, which is more sensitive than the seeker on the Monster Snake Three.

"If you have a sword in your hand, don't panic!"

Mu Hu immediately called 101. Staff Officer Hai Guitong saw Mu Hu's face change from a cheerful expression to a cloudy one in an instant.

"what's the situation!"

Mu Hu said angrily: "They actually drove Director Xiao Zhao away!"

"Ah, is this crazy?"

…

In the capital, Liu Qing had been restless for two or three days. A suspension for inspection did not mean that he had masturbated directly. Unexpectedly, Zhao Guoqing was so brave and resigned directly. Other leaders of the General Staff were also confused.

Someone said: "Young people need experience, and a little setback will help them make fewer mistakes in the future!"

Liu Qing said: "Although Comrade Zhao Guoqing made such an extreme decision based on subjective judgment, we still don't know how things will develop. It's a bit early to draw conclusions now!"

Many people do not believe that Mao Xiong will collapse, and many people believe that Comrade Zhao Guoqing must be held responsible for causing losses of more than one billion US dollars.

One side wanted protection, the other wanted severe punishment. In the end, they compromised and gave me a moderate punishment. I originally planned to suspend him for two or three months and then resume his duties.

Unexpectedly, Director Xiao Zhao overturned the table.

The evaluation report of the Science and Technology Commission said: "In more than four years, Comrade Zhao Guoqing has pushed our country's electronic chip level to the level of developed countries, and even led the development of the entire industry in chip design. Transmission, especially telephone signals, and optical fiber transmission have surpassed the Western world..."

When Mr. Mu returned to the capital, he went directly to some people and said, "I don't know how far the United States has achieved phased array radar, but our data is no worse than theirs, and our missile guidance method is better than what they are willing to sell to us." Our good! Comrades, what else can I say?"

The leaders of Huizhou State-owned Assets also said something fair.

"The value created by Comrade Zhao Guoqing at 101 far exceeds 1 billion US dollars. Among them, light-emitting semiconductors and telephone program-controlled switches have always been the major foreign exchange earners. Now digital routers, optical modules, and transistor components have gradually become the major foreign exchange earners. It is expected that this year alone, An optical module can create 30 million US dollars in foreign exchange..."

There is also the cryptic part. There is only one meaning behind the words. Let’s not talk about whether Comrade Zhao Guoqing’s matter was right or wrong. Even if he is wrong, it does not violate any regulations, because there is no rule that enterprises are not allowed to borrow from foreign banks. In fact, some companies can get loans.

Besides, even if losses are caused, judging from the huge value created by Comrade Zhao Guoqing, the big issue should be minimized!

The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Science and Technology also spoke.

“The 101 Research Institute, Datacom Electronics Factory, Xintu, etc. established by Comrade Zhao Guoqing have helped 17 companies improve their productivity through cooperative industrial upgrading, and 67 research institutes and institutes have been upgraded by adding to the cooperation list. The school’s R\u0026D capabilities…”

Someone said: "Research Institute 101 also caused 17 companies to be on the verge of bankruptcy and seven research institutes to be on the verge of being banned!"

Meng Fanxing's instruction on this statement is: If you don't cherish opportunities and improve your technical level, you should take this as a warning.

The words were tactful, but the tone was strong, indicating that the Science and Technology Commission still recognized Zhao Guoqing's approach.

Most people think that Institute 101 is right, but of course the stakeholders are different. After all, a large factory with thousands of employees collapsed, which is a big problem.

The argument was still unresolved. Comrade Zhao Guoqing smashed the plate and stopped playing. Everyone was dumbfounded.

No one knows where he went.

…………

Zhao Guoqing and Yang Qing received the certificate and invited Gao Changming, Bi Changliang, Director Wang, several leaders of Institute 14, and Jia Pengfei.

There is no big deal. The husband’s relatives are in Hongze and it is not convenient to go back and forth. He has not invited them. He plans to make up for it in the future.

After bringing Yang's mother and several of the woman's relatives to Lucheng, they only had two tables in the Yangtze River Hotel.

The next day, the couple headed south with twenty-one of their men.

Four months later…

On March 1, 1989, two pieces of news that shocked the world appeared on the front page of the Shenzhen Evening News.

"Huaneng Company has developed the world's first optical fiber digital transmission detached base station. It has completed testing and is being put into commercial operation..."

"Zhongxun launched China's first mobile phone, Honor 1110, creating a breakthrough in China's mobile phone field from 0 to 1."
