Military Industry of Great Powers: Build the Strongest Flanker

183 kilometers, this number severely stimulated everyone present, and on the rostrum.

Director Liu Qing has been confirming with Ji Hongbo.

"Didn't it say that the detection range is one hundred kilometers?"

"Why one hundred and eighty-three kilometers?"

"Is it possible that it was a false alarm!"

Ji Hongbo explained to Director Liu Qing what redundant design is and what gaze state is.

"Director Liu, the first consideration for military products is durability and reliability, so when we design, we usually increase the redundancy to a very high level. We also design bypass support for the main circuits to prevent the main circuit from malfunctioning. The bypass circuit can immediately replace the main circuit to ensure that the equipment can work normally."

"The staring state is to supply power to the limit in a short period of time, and squeeze out the radar's ultimate performance while ensuring the reliability of the radar. However, in this state, the electrical circuits and various components of the radar often It has to withstand an extreme load and needs a complete inspection and refurbishment before next use!”

Director Liu nodded and said, "So that's what happened! 183 kilometers, good guy..."

…

Mu Hu, who was flying the plane, was mentally numb. He continued to receive reports from the command console about the flight status, which was the same as what was displayed on his dashboard. The reports did not stop until one hundred and eighty-three kilometers later.

What does this mean? It means that the detection range of the radar has reached 183 kilometers.

This data is incredible. The detection range of the 204 radar is only more than ten kilometers. This technological advancement will instantly increase the performance tenfold. If all Air Force aircraft are equipped with this radar, the improvement in combat effectiveness will be obvious. Moreover, General Master Zhao mentioned that this The radar is designed in accordance with 1553b standards and can guide medium-range air-to-air missiles...

After Mu Hu got off the plane after returning, he hurriedly got into the jeep and rushed to the air finger training ground at lightning speed.

…………

"General Master Zhao!"

"General Master Zhao!"

The warm atmosphere at the scene was moving. 183 kilometers, a number that everyone is proud of, was born here.

Director Meng of the Science and Technology Commission calculated in his mind that the actual allocation only cost more than four million, half of which was spent on purchasing Japanese electrical components.

Of course, the actual cost far exceeds this number. Many things do not cost money, such as chip processing at Tsinghua University. Even Zhao Guoqing doesn’t know how many times they have taped out, and Professor He Zhenhua never mentioned it. Anyway, they have separate funding channels. .

The appallingly low wage level in China is where most of the money is saved, with the entire labor cost only accounting for a single-digit percentage.

Even so, after spending more than four million to obtain such a high-performance phased array radar, such a result made Director Meng feel dizzy.

"Chief Engineer Zhao, Chief Engineer Ji, Chief Engineer Gou, and Chief Engineer Bi, congratulations on your excellent results!"

"This is all the result of the joint efforts of comrades!"

"well……"

Director Liu Qing said: "When can the next test start!"

"anytime!"

To be able to detect the target, you must also be able to attack the target. How to attack the target is naturally an air-to-air missile.

The connection between the radar and the Monster Snake III missile, as well as the data link that transmits position information to the air-to-air missile through the radar, guides the missile to the target before the infrared detector of the Monster Snake III short-range air-to-air missile cannot lock on to the target.

The content involved is whether the bus interface can work properly, whether the radio frequency signal can transmit a data link that complies with the 1553b data bus standard, as well as the transmission of radio frequency signals and the standard of the position signal.

The more important point is that the test targets will have multiple targets. It is necessary to identify the targets that need to be hit from four or five targets, and guide the target position to the Monster Snake III short-range air-to-air missile within a range of fifteen kilometers. , destroy the target.

"Okay, let's set it in three days. How about we be at the back mountain shooting range then?"

"I don't know if there is a suitable power supply over there. This needs coordination!"

"Don't worry about the power supply, Chief Zhao. This matter is too big. Director Meng and I need to report it as soon as possible. We won't keep it today!"

"Director Liu, walk slowly! Director Meng, walk slowly!"

Zhao Guoqing told Tong Yihong to quickly remove the radar from the tower and inspect all components to prepare for the missile test three days later.

"The parallel bus interface and radio frequency data link should be checked carefully."

"General Master Zhao, don't worry!"

While Zhao Guoqing was explaining the matter, he heard a sudden sound of brakes coming from the front, and saw Mu Hu hurriedly getting out of the car and walking directly to the podium!

"183 kilometers, I didn't expect that, Commander Zhao, this eagle eye can really see very far!"

Zhao Guoqing hurriedly saluted and said: "Mr. Mu!"

"No need to salute, Commander Zhao. I just heard on the plane that there was still tracking at 183 kilometers. I thought the command post was talking nonsense. The radar on the plane also received strong X-wave pulses. Although this radar is small, it has great performance. But it’s not small at all!”

This is a surprise that I have never seen before. To put it bluntly, the beggar found ten yuan and could finally eat a bowl of meat noodles.

"Mr. Mu, this is a radar mounted on the nose of the shock cone!"

Mu Hu didn't react for a while, but after thinking about it for a moment, he understood that whether he was a layman with airborne pointing or an expert in airborne radar, they all knew that the nose of the aircraft with the shock cone air inlet was not suitable for installing radar at all, and If you want to install a large radar, you need a large nose with side air intake or belly air intake.

Moreover, the larger the diameter of the nose, the larger the radar antenna that can be installed, and the performance of the radar will also be improved.

"Commander Zhao, do you mean it's a big machine head? What will happen if it's installed on a big machine head?"

"If the power supply is sufficient, the performance can probably be doubled!"

Muhu looked at Zhao Guoqing closely.

"General Master Zhao, are you right? Can you double the performance? Can you see more than 300 kilometers?"

This is almost like telling a myth!

Zhao Guoqing nodded and said: "Theoretically, that's the case. Considering the actual situation, it's not too different!"

"call!"

Mu Hu took a long breath.

If he didn't know about this thing, Mu Hu wouldn't worry about it, but when Zhao Guoqing said that the radar could see more than three hundred kilometers, Mu Hu felt itchy and uncomfortable.

"Commander Zhao, the new radar can be installed on the J-82. That's a big nose!"

Zhao Guoqing did not speak. China's J-8 fighter is actually an enlarged version of the J-7. It is basically still based on the MiG-21 fighter. In fact, the design of the J-7 has a significant impact on the aerodynamic shape of the MiG-21. The design technology is not fully understood either.

To put it bluntly, the J-81 model has a sick upper body, while the J-82 rotates the air inlet of the J-81 to both sides in order to design a large nose that can install a full-size airborne radar. , in terms of performance, it’s really hard to describe in a word, but even so, it does not affect Ba Ye’s historical status.

For the current Chinese country, there is really no better verification machine platform than Ba ​​Ye.
