Chapter 555: Is this thing still attack-5?
Fortunately, other comrades now do not know the equipment situation of Master 6, and this equipment situation is unlikely to be repeated. At least Master 7's imitation should be smoother.
In other words, we provide the materials, Lao Maozi cooks, and makes LYP-7 for us.
Again, a certain degree of falling out may not necessarily affect business.
Even so, Gao Zhendong's big step, which seems to be bound to involve that, is still a bit difficult for everyone to accept.
But whether it is the Air Force or the National Defense Work Committee, they have become somewhat accustomed to Gao Zhendong's aggressive style that can scare people to death. They probably also know that there are always some reasons for his radicalness, at least in his own eyes. Come on, it is absolutely self-consistent.
Okay, let’s not make a fuss, let’s explain the terminology first.
"First of all, what does battlefield interception mean? What are the specific multi-purpose aspects of multi-purpose fighter jets?"
Gao Zhendong also knows that these things will most likely need to be explained. I had already prepared myself, opened my notebook, and explained several terms in front of the blackboard.
In order to distinguish between battlefield interruption and close ground support, pictures were even drawn.
The comrades in the Air Force listened attentively to what Gao Zhendong said and talked about their feelings with a little emotion.
“No wonder I always feel that the task and performance requirements of Attack-5 seem weird. It took me a long time to do it twice.”
“Well, Chief Engineer Gao is worthy of this category. Well, although battlefield interdiction and close support are both tactical attack missions, the mission content, penetration requirements, and attack methods are completely different, and the requirements for fighter aircraft are also completely different.”
“Mr. Gao. Write down what the worker said. This is something worthy of in-depth study.”
“I have written down all of it. I haven’t even finished studying what Chief Engineer Gao said last time.”
"..."
At this time, our air force's research on tactics and tactics is relatively lacking, so I am very interested in what Gao Zhendong said. I won't say whether it is right or not, at least take a look It seems that they have thought deeply about it, one by one.
This is already rare. Judging from Gao Zhendong’s understanding and performance of equipment, techniques and tactics, what he has thought deeply about has great reference value.
The Air Force does not take Gao Zhendong’s words as a guide without thinking, but it can still be used as a reference.
As for the multi-purpose fighter jet, this is a brand new concept. Even Citigroup did not have this concept at this time.
Hearing Gao Zhendong describe a new type of combat aircraft that can perform both air-to-air combat and penetration bombing, and at the same time, the production and use costs are controlled within a certain range, the Air Force felt that it was a bit unreal.
“This thing sounds good, but we all know that being proficient in everything often means being sparse in everything. How can we ensure that it can do all these things well? Especially if its cost is strictly controlled Under the premise.”
The Air Force still understands this truth.
Gao Zhendong listed the known air combat data and his recent statistical results on the blackboard, and then began to explain his reasons.
“My starting point in these aspects is this. First of all, we have all seen that a large number of air battles will occur at medium and low altitudes. High altitudes are a specialized battlefield, mainly based on interception operations. Lord, whether it is a high-on-high volley or a high-on-low volley, there is a high probability that it will not be possible due to the oxygen content at high altitudes.”
The comrades in the Air Force thought about how difficult it was to fight the U-2 at an altitude of 20,000 meters. Well, it is true that there is no big maneuver to do. If the movement is too big, let alone hit the enemy, he will fall first.
Around 15,000 is better, but it is only so good.
Well, that seems to be the case.
Having finished talking about high altitude, Gao Zhendong said about high speed: "Due to the existence of the sound barrier, supersonic speed is mostly used to engage with enemies. As for supersonic air combat and combat, it will not be realistic for a long time. At the same time, The main speed range for air combat is subsonic and high subsonic. "
Don't think too much, everyone is deeply aware of this. There is no maneuverability at supersonic speed, and the action is even worse than high altitude. , if it falls down at high altitude, there is still a chance to recover. If the supersonic maneuver becomes too large, the aircraft may fall apart.
Uh, that makes sense. "So I personally think that as a cheap multi-purpose fighter, its high-altitude and high-speed performance can be given up, or not given priority, and instead its mid- and low-altitude flight performance, subsonic and high subsonic speed maneuverability, lift-to-drag ratio, and load capacity can be given up. We must work hard to optimize various parameters within this envelope.”
It seems that since we cannot cover everything, we just focus on the combat airspace with the highest probability of air combat. What problem.
Oops, why do I feel like I’ve been trapped by him and can’t get out!
In fact, after all, Gao Zhendong is mainly based on the actual route of fighter development in previous generations. Regardless of the arguments or arguments, they are all ready-made and quite convincing.
However, although the comrades of the Air Force are not very clear in theory, they are clear about the equipment situation: "But even so, it still cannot solve the problem of combat effectiveness and multi-purpose of cheap fighter jets. In fact, the Zhan-6 is now in In this state, its combat effectiveness can only be said to be adequate, let alone multi-purpose. "
Gao Zhendong smiled and said: "So, I would recommend using the G-5 combat type for multi-purpose. It’s a fighter jet. Its biggest advantage is that it has air intakes on both sides, which allows the nose to be installed with radar.”
It’s the radar again.
“Don’t underestimate this thing. With good radar and semi-active radar air-to-air bombs with acceptable performance, fighter planes can attack and destroy enemy aircraft from 20-30 kilometers away. posture, and then take the initiative in air combat. Combined with optimized mid-low altitude, high-pressure sonic maneuverability, and infrared-guided air-to-air combat missiles, its air combat capabilities cannot be underestimated. "
For a while, everyone was worried. Being attracted by the beautiful blueprint painted by Gao Zhendong, he temporarily forgot about the trouble he had caused, and Gao Zhendong struck while the iron was hot.
"At the same time, a good radar can conduct terrain tracking, enhance the fighter's penetration ability when attacking the ground and the sea, and also allow the ammunition carried by the fighter to hit more accurately. In this case, as long as there is acceptable If the range and bomb load are not bad, then the ground strike capability of this fighter will not be too bad."
Listen, the comrades in the Air Force came to their senses.
"No, this thing is equipped with a radar. How can it be cheaper?"
Gao Zhendong smiled: "With its size, it cannot be equipped with a particularly large radar. It is relatively larger. For a fighter jet, it is still cheap when equipped with the same level of equipment. Besides, even if it is not equipped with a radar, it has advantages over the Z-6 if it is equipped with various sights.”
I have learned the theory of relativity very well. At this time, we cannot discuss absolute prices, but only relative prices.
But what the Air Force is worried about is that there is no radar. If there is a suitable radar, will they be willing to leave the nose of the aircraft empty instead of installing it? Gao Zhendong was the first to not believe it.
Sure enough, the comrades in the Air Force thought about it, and it seemed to be the truth. Small ones are cheaper than big ones. You can't have horses running and not eating grass. If you have radar, you must install it.
“But as far as we know, the altitude and speed of the Attack-5 are much worse than the Z-6, which is not outstanding in the first place, and cannot reach our minimum requirements for fighter jets. I'm afraid it won't work if I use it to replace the Zhan-6. "
Hearing this, Gao Zhendong looked prepared and confident. He took out several sets of information and handed them to the conference officials, asking them to distribute them. To several major comrades.
“Dear leaders, this material is based on the latest LYP-6 engine of the Northeast Aviation Development Institute and combined with the comrades of the China Aircraft Factory after full communication between me and the comrades of the China Aircraft Factory. Regarding the aerodynamic and structural improvements of the G-5, please take a look at the main parameters of the G-5 combat type.”
When the leader of the National Defense Work Committee saw this, he knew that Mr. Xiao from the Porcelain Flying Factory had been busy in the capital recently, and he was indeed having trouble with Gao Zhendong.
Gao Zhendong really does not fight an unprepared battle, especially such a big battle!
He, the Chief Engineer of the National Defense Work Committee, and the main comrades of the Air Force received the materials distributed by Gao Zhendong. The more they read, the more frightened they became, and the expressions on their faces changed.
What magic elixir did Gao Zhendong give to Porcelain Flying Factory? This aircraft looks greatly improved. No one believes that these improvements were made by Porcelain Flying Factory itself. If they could be made, they would have been made long ago and they would not have waited until now.
“Is this thing still attack-5? Are the parameters in this material scientifically estimated?”
Gao Zhendong was well prepared: "This was estimated by the comrades of the Porcelain Flying Factory based on existing theories and experience. At the same time, the comrades of the Porcelain Flying Factory also made a model as fast as possible. The wind tunnel test results were also used for the evaluation of these parameters." The people from the National Defense Work Committee looked at Gao Zhendong and secretly sighed that Gao Zhendong and the porcelain flying factory were too fast. It's coming soon. It hasn't been that long, and the wind tunnel has blown it once.
However, with the endorsement of wind tunnel testing, the credibility of this estimated parameter is even higher.
It’s not that they can’t trust Gao Zhendong and Porcelain Flying Factory, but the improvement in the data in their hands is astonishing. Their first feeling is not that Gao and Xiao are lying. These two comrades cannot afford to lose. That person felt that they had made a mistake!
The internal fuel range has doubled, the speed and altitude have caught up with the original MiG-19, and the altitude has even exceeded it slightly. The maximum bomb load has increased by 30% to 2 tons, and this 2 tons is considered This is achieved without the added weight of radar and other avionics systems.
No wonder they were surprised. Gao Zhendong himself was surprised when he saw this data. At least he had never expected that the speed could catch up with the MiG-19. The speed advantage of the nose air intake is difficult to offset.
