Chapter 234 Jamming pod, reverse engineering
“Our pilots did a great job...”
Chang Haonan, who was in a good mood, directly fisted and fisted, and there was a bang at the venue. There's something eye-catching about it.
For a moment, he even wanted to use the word "awesome" to comment, but he still swallowed the words forcefully.
After all, this is Sanzuomen, so some not-so-elegant oral habits need to be restrained.
However, the sound just now attracted the attention of several pilots on the other side of the venue.
For those who are capable of flying airplanes, their eyesight is naturally good, so even from a distance of tens of meters, someone quickly recognized Chang Haonan.
So a few minutes later, several more people gathered around the latter and joined the discussion.
Chang Haonan had an encounter with Zheng Liangqun when batch 00 was delivered for trial a few months ago, but at that time he chatted more with two comrades from the 25th Regiment of the 9th HNA Division.
“Congratulations to Deputy Commander Zheng for achieving the first beyond-visual-range shootdown of the Chinese Air Force. It also gives our aviation industry’s products a reputation!”
The shooting down of Zheng Liangqun broke many records of the Chinese Air Force. The most direct one was the first actual combat result since 1967, but "the first in thirty years" is definitely not as good as the real "first". .
“Hey, what did Chang Gong say? It’s obviously your equipment that gives us pilots the opportunity to display our abilities. If it weren’t for the new aircraft we just received, then we would have caught the MiG-25 invading. The time window is beyond our reach.”
It can be seen that the pilot comrade opposite is trying his best to suppress his smile, but the effect is obviously not very good.
After all, even Yang Fenghata was as happy as a child when talking about the achievements of the J-8C, let alone Zheng Liangqun who personally shot down the MiG-25.
Which fighter pilot wouldn’t want to paint a real downed mark on the side of his plane?
What's more, as Chang Haonan just said, this is the first beyond visual range result.
The Chinese army began to equip aircraft with theoretical beyond-visual-range combat capabilities in the mid-1980s. For nearly 10 years now, there are only very few pilots who have shot over-the-horizon aerial targets. And he, Zheng Liangqun, A result has been obtained.
Way ahead of your peers!
It is definitely an achievement that can enter history.
It may even give him the opportunity to promote his experience and training methods throughout the army——
From now on, all pilots in the navy and air force will be at least half of their apprentices.
Just thinking about it is exciting.
Now Zheng Liangqun wants to say to someone when he sees him, "How did you know I shot down a MiG-25?" However, due to the special nature of going to fight abroad, he cannot talk to most of the people around him. People share this kind of joy, and even this honoring has to be done in other names, which makes it quite uncomfortable every day.
"What exactly is going on with that pod? Have you already started researching it? Can we refer to reverse engineering and imitate one?"
Chang Haonan, who has had similar feelings, knows the sense of accomplishment. I was holding back the pain that I couldn't express, so I quickly threw out several questions like a barrage of questions.
Satisfying my curiosity is just a way of doing it, mainly to create an opportunity for Deputy Teacher Zheng to express himself.
Sure enough, when he finally faced a group of people who didn’t need to cover up and had someone to set up a ladder for them, Zheng Liangqun, who usually didn’t talk much, quickly started chatting:
“The MiG-25s of the 102nd Squadron are only the most basic RBK and RUS types. They originally only had daytime photographic reconnaissance capabilities. Although they are difficult to deal with, the actual threat to Zhenli is not that big.”
"But the last few times they flew were obviously not normal optical reconnaissance routes. Later we shot down the plane and captured the pilot and found out after a first interrogation that they had hooked up with the United States and the CIA had killed the MiG-25. A multifunctional pod that can perform active and passive radar reconnaissance at the same time, it can also perform SAR scanning and automatically detect and collect radar signals. ”
“So powerful? ”
Chang Haonan knew that he only needed to be a good supporter at this time.
Zheng Liangqun nodded and continued:
"That's not all. When we were preparing to intercept this time, they also launched electromagnetic interference several times in a row, whether it was a surface-to-air missile position or Our interceptors will all lose their targets when they switch to tracking mode and prepare to launch missiles. It is also the fault of this pod. The captured pilot said that it can create a false target for the radar."
"Then you guys. How did you shoot him down in the end? Was it with a machine gun? "
"Of course not, using a machine gun at that height is too risky, and the effect is not good. "
Zheng Liangqun did not reveal that they had really considered this life-threatening plan at that time. After all, it was not used in the end. It seems hypocritical to say this. Chen Jialiang, who had been beside him eager to try, finally got an opportunity to interject:
“Speaking of which, I later heard an engineer from the Electronic Technology Group say that in the end we were able to overcome electromagnetic interference because of Chang Gong, your inspiration came."
"Because of me?"
Chang Haonan was a little surprised that the topic was suddenly directed to him.
"Yes, an engineer named Guo from the 14th Institute told us that he was inspired by one of your papers and designed an anti-tow interference mode on the J-8C's 1472 radar to reduce some of the radar refresh rate and detection. At the cost of distance, we can avoid the influence of deceptive interference, and then we fired two Thunderbolt 11 rounds and knocked down the MiG-25."
Chen Jialiang gestured with his hands in mid-air and pointed towards Chang Hao. Nan and others introduced the most exciting part of the entire battle.
“Later, together with the paratroopers of the Pakistan Air Force, we found the pilot and the wreckage of the plane near the shooting point.”
Zheng Liangqun, who had been robbed of the conversation for a long time, took advantage of every opportunity to pick it up. :
"The most valuable pod has been secretly transported back to the country and handed over to the military industry department for research. As for reverse imitation... it depends on them. Anyway, we really hope to do it. There is a similar equipment.”
After a lot of exciting stories, Chang Haonan finally heard the information he wanted to know most——
This quite powerful jamming pod should have just begun to be studied.
In other words, there is still room for him to play a role.
“So which unit is in charge of this matter now?”
If this thing is within the aviation industry, that would be the best, but if not, it may have to be passed Only Ding Gaoheng's relationship can be contacted.
"Of course it's our Electronic Technology Group."
At this moment, a young voice came from the side:
Chang Haonan turned his head and saw a man wearing glasses, probably A man in his early thirties with hair that didn't look like an engineer came over.
"Guo Lin, from the 14th Institute of Electrical Engineering."
After the brief self-introduction, the two shook hands.
"I am very happy to see one of the founders of the volumetric Kalman filtering method here. The paper co-authored by you and Researcher Xu, Chang Gong, gave us a lot of inspiration. Our radar can overcome interference and seize the target this time. I also want to thank you.”
“It’s nothing, academic research should be exchanged.”
Chang Haonan was obviously not concerned about this matter at this time:
"I wonder if I can..." about the electronic warfare pod that was brought back..."
Before he could tell his purpose, Guo Lin had already guessed what he wanted to say. He answered directly:
"Of course you can participate. In fact, even if we don't find a chance to chat in person today, we were originally planning to invite you two to join this project. After all, there should be no more authoritative person in the country in the field of control engineering theory."< br>
“The two of us?”
Chang Haonan noticed that Guo Lin opposite him was looking behind him and subconsciously turned around.
A woman about the same height as herself was standing there with her arms crossed.
"Researcher Xu?"
It was Xu Yang who had worked with Chang Haonan for a while when he was doing wing design optimization.
"Dr. Chang, long time no see."
