Chapter 564 One Sword Frost Frost Fourteen States
The minister was completely shocked by Linochka's idea, which seemed to be not completely unreasonable.
"Linochka, I remember there is a group of southern comrades here. What are they doing now?"
"They are inspecting the situation of the MiG-21. What do they think about this We are very interested in the aircraft.”
It’s not that we don’t want better ones, but whether they can sell them and whether they can afford them are serious practical issues. At the same time, whether they can be copied after buying them. , which we also need to consider.
In any case, the MiG-21 can be regarded as an excellent front-line fighter, and its service period in Lao Maozi is not short. During the Cold War, under the background of extremely rapid iteration of weapons and equipment, it also shows that this aircraft has its own of several brushes.
Hot knowledge, the jet fighter family with the largest production in human history is not the MiG-19/6 that we have produced 5,200 as mentioned earlier, nor is it the F-16 that became active later. , but the MiG-21/7, with a total production of more than 10,000 aircraft!
One of the brushes is relatively simple and cheap, and the maintenance is not complicated. This is of great significance to us now. The combat radius is not a big problem. 600 kilometers, for this time For us, that's basically enough.
Yes, although the 7 Ye has better performance, its maintenance is simpler because it has only one engine and it is lighter than the 6 Ye.
“Ah, that’s it. I’m very curious, what will happen to this MiG-21 in their hands? You know, our MiG-19 has absolutely no possibility of shooting down a U.S. -2, but they just achieved this miracle.”
"Comrade Minister, this is our latest fighter jet."
"I know, but we will have newer fighter jets, Linochka, take a longer view. In addition, you have to treat us The comrades in equipment research are confident that we will be ahead. By the way, we still can’t imitate their high-temperature alloys, can we?”
Comrade Minister’s words told Linochka a fact. , whether it is for active long-term benefits or passive necessity, this MiG-21 must provide it.
"I understand, Comrade Minister."
No matter what the reaction of all parties was, what speculations were made, we published it on the front page of the "Daily" the next day. All their questions and confusions were answered.
"...A certain unit of our Air Force used a new domestically produced fighter jet and supporting missiles to once again shoot down a Citi-made U-2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft that was harassing our inland at an altitude of 24,800 meters. This battle created a precedent for a fighter jet to shoot down an enemy. The world record for machine height..."
World records must be shown and bragging is not a good way to save face. This is one of the best ways to boost the confidence of the Chinese people and deter the enemy.
As soon as this report came out, the boots on the way the U-2 was shot down officially fell, and all parties were once again in shock.
No need to guess, there is no hope, it was shot down by a fighter jet at that extreme altitude.
Regarding this result, the countries of the Ocean Convention headed by Citigroup were secretly alarmed. Does this mean that aerial reconnaissance of the Economic Assistance Council countries, even if they bypass the anti-aircraft missile defense area, is no longer safe? ?
After all, the fighter jets in that country all come from Lao Maozi. They have the ability to shoot down them, which means that Lao Maozi also has this ability.
Actually, they think too much. Lao Maozi doesn’t have the ability now.
This combat example is very extreme. In the future, missiles with similar performance to the Thunder-1 and improved ground air defense systems will have a maximum shooting height of only 3.5 kilometers.
The reason why we were able to shoot down the U-2 at this altitude this time was firstly because our comrade pilots used the engine and aircraft combination that we only have for the time being and flew to an altitude of 21,000 meters, making the Thunder-1 Shegao finally has its place.
Secondly, the initial speed given to the missile by the fighter plane slightly increases the missile's launch height.
But such details are not something they can know. They only know the fact that the eastern camp has the ability to use fighter jets to shoot down targets at an altitude of 24,800 meters.
It must be said that Linochka's mind was in the right place. This may be due to his understanding of his enemies for many years.
Regardless of the reactions of all parties, Gao Zhendong’s meeting has entered the last day.
The good news came the day before. The pilot was found and he was alive and kicking. This made everyone feel extremely relaxed.
“Comrade Zhendong, this time you can tell me carefully, what is the last type of your three-level three-type.”
The leader of the National Defense Working Committee said with a cheerful smile that the comrades of the Air Force also maintained great interest in this.
Gao Zhendong nodded, and then what he said made everyone feel one thing.
This comrade’s previous suggestions are all completely conservative!
“For this third type, my suggestion is to imitate the MiG-21F engine that may be available, change the single engine into dual engines, and develop an air superiority fighter of medium or above size, and on this basis, Retain multi-mission performance as much as possible. "
Air superiority fighter, or air superiority fighter, you can tell what it does just by looking at the name. It is a pure fighter, used to gain advantage in the air.
The typical air superiority fighter is Citigroup's F-15A/B. Its flight performance is quite high. After the later F-15E turned to multi-purpose, its flight performance was completely incomparable.
As for why it is designated as medium-sized, the main reason is that even if two 7ye engines are tied together, it will only be enough to push a medium-sized machine, which is far from the power requirements for heavy combat.
However, the mid-sized machine is properly designed and is sufficient for our current use.
The R11F-300 engine of the MiG-21F, no matter what its flaws, is already the best-performing aircraft engine we can get now. If we use it as a basis, there will be no problems. Big, it won’t be too late to get the R13-300 when it comes out, there are still many years left. As for installation versatility, Lao Maozi will solve it.
As for whether Lao Maozi will give it to me at that time, well, our earliest data sources for MiG-21MF and R13-300 are also from the "Roman type". As for the entities, it is further away and has nothing to do with Maozi.
Although the engine was somewhat promising, Gao Zhendong’s suggestion immediately frightened all comrades, including the Air Force.
Even Mr. Ba, who originally changed from a single engine to a double engine, proposed it in 1963 and officially started it in 1965.
So now Gao Zhendong proposes to build a new medium-sized twin-engine fighter. This suggestion undoubtedly scares everyone.
Learning to walk without learning to crawl is a mistake.
Gao Zhendong's idea is different. What he wants is to start this thing even if the progress is a little slower, and try to lay the foundation for the main fighter aircraft that can support the sky for the next 20 years within a few years.
After this development window period, some things may not be easy to handle.
He took stock of the goods on hand and felt that it would work.
He never thought about replicating Master 8. Compared with Master 7, there is actually no essential difference between Master 8 and Master 7.
If we can successfully imitate Master 7, we will be able to survive in the next ten years. There is no need to build another Master 8. He is targeting other aircraft.
The reason why 8ye became an enlarged version of 7ye was mainly because our foundation in aerodynamics was relatively weak at that time, so we had to do it as a last resort. In addition, avionics and other aspects were all weak, and in the end even 8ye was stumbling.
It just so happened that he was concerned about this matter.
"Isn't this step a bit too big?" Even the Air Force, which is most fond of hearing about this, is quite hesitant about it.
It’s hard to describe how radical our air force’s requirements for equipment were in the early and middle stages. Even they are hesitant now. This shows how far Gao Zhendong’s step span is in the eyes of ordinary people. Outrageous.
Gao Zhendong, however, is neither impatient nor impatient: "Things can be done slowly, but start early, otherwise you will be pushed further and further away."
"What is the goal of your air superiority fighter?"
"You can tell by the name. Its only mission is to fly at various altitudes below 20,000 meters, in the range of subsonic to transonic speeds. Try to defeat all enemies and gain air superiority. Every kilogram of its weight is prepared for air combat. At the same time, it should be able to undertake supersonic interception missions at an engagement speed of Mach 2. As for multi-purpose, That’s just a tack, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have it.”
As for supersonic air combat and altitudes above 20,000 meters, that’s really easy to worry about. With the excellent design of the MiG-25, at 25,000 meters. Under the Mach 3 indicator requirements, it can only guarantee high-altitude and high-speed performance, and its low-speed performance is relatively mediocre.
Gao Zhendong’s words made the comrades in the Air Force excited. This thing is great!
Why don’t you bring Wu Gou? One sword will frost the fourteen states.
These two lines of poetry, which were inexplicably put together, echoed in the heads of the air force comrades.
Especially hearing the phrase "Every kilogram of weight is prepared for air combat", how extreme and romantic this is.
Well...men's romance is really different.
But considering the actual situation, a bucket of cold water poured down on him: "Are you sure about that?"
Before Gao Zhendong answered, other comrades started discussing.
"It's not easy to handle. We don't have in-depth research on the aerodynamics of high-performance fighter jets, so we may have to go a long way."
"Yes, avionics is also a problem, and the radar is too poor."
“Let’s put aside everything else and let’s talk about this indicator first. How to determine Mach 2 and 20,000 meters? Subsonic to transonic speed?”
“…”
Seeing that everyone had different opinions, the leader of the National Defense Working Committee spoke up at the right time.
"Comrades, what Comrade Zhendong put forward is a planning idea. Let's not discuss technical details such as aerodynamics and avionics. Let us first focus on the combat settings of the combat area and scope."
When everyone hears this, this makes sense. If the combat settings are all wrong, then discussing aerodynamics and avionics is nothing more than a mirror in the mirror. These things must serve the combat settings.
These things will change depending on the setting conditions. It is better to put these aside first and discuss the setting issues clearly.
