Chapter 753: Despair, and Hope in Despair
"Huh?!"
Hearing Chen Geng's words say that the Americans have actually solved the problem of the survival of bombers in today's increasingly advanced air defense missile technology, He Kai's eyes widened, grabbed Chen Geng's hand, and said excitedly: "How did they solve it?"
"It's very simple," Chen Geng said: "The Americans' development concept for the future large subsonic bomber, which is actually the B52, is: platformization." ”
"Platformization?" He Kai was a little confused, he tried to think about it, but after all, he still had no clue, so he had to give up his thoughts and asked, "What do you mean?"
Chen Geng: "It means that from now on, the US B52 bomber will no longer be used as a front-line combat weapon to carry out low-precision volley bombing missions, but as a large aerial weapon launch platform to carry out long-range precision strike missions outside the enemy's defense zone." ”
“……”
He Kai blinked, he still didn't understand what Chen Geng's words meant.
"The U.S. government and the U.S. Air Force felt the lack of precision strike capabilities against the enemy's important strategic nodes during the Vietnam War, and in the late Vietnam War, the U.S. government launched a weapons development program to create long-range precision strikes, which were two cruise missile projects that the United States began in the early 70s: AGM-86 and A/BGM-109, which began to be officially equipped with troops in 1982 and 1983 respectively. ”
"AGM-86 and A/BGM-109?" He Kai frowned and thought for a long time, he really didn't have any impression of these two projects, and finally couldn't help but ask Chen Geng: "What kind of missile is this?
Chen Geng sighed in his heart: These two long-range cruise missiles of the Americans have already been officially put into service, and the people in the domestic weapons research and development system do not know about it?!
"Well, it's very powerful, very powerful," Chen Geng nodded: "AGM-86 has a total of three models: A, B, and C, and there is no mass production after the successful development of Type A, and now the US military is mainly equipped with Type B that carries and warheads and Type C that carries conventional high-energy warheads, Type B has a range of up to 2500 kilometers, using inertial guidance plus terminal terrain matching guidance technology, with a circular probability error of only 30 meters, and Type C uses a high-energy blasting and killing warhead with a charge of 450 kg, and the maximum range is also 1500 kilometers;
As for the A/BGM-109, four versions of carrier-based, submarine-based, land-based, and air-based launch platforms have been developed at the same time, which can carry nuclear and conventional warheads, and as for the range, depending on the launch platform, before 1200 km to 2500 km, the accuracy of hitting is only 30 meters.
Oh, by the way, both of these missiles fly at an altitude of only 50 to 150 meters, which belongs to the altitude of cruising close to the ground, plus the radar reflective surface of the target is very small, it is almost difficult to be detected by radar, to some extent, these two series of missiles are almost invisible and unpreventable to the attacked enemy. ”
He Kai's whole face turned white when he heard this, and his lips trembled and asked, "How many such cruise missiles can a B52 bomber carry at most?"
"20 pieces. ”
“……”
He Kai didn't speak, and his whole body collapsed on the seat.
Chen Geng understands why He Kai feels this way, you imagine that when one or several B52 bombers of the enemy are flying swaggering more than 2,000 kilometers away, but you don't take it seriously at all, thinking that this is just the enemy's routine training, and then at this time, the enemy's aircraft group suddenly launched a batch of missiles at you, which stuck to the ground, and quietly approached you like a thief with the undulations of the terrain, perfectly avoiding your watchdog, and then poked at your radar station with a knife, communication center, ammunition depot, command center...... Make you blind, deaf or even stupid......
What is it?
This is a sword from the west, flying immortals from the sky!
The worst thing is that the accuracy is still so high, 30 meters!
The building area of any strategic node in China is not more than tens of millions of square meters? The strategic goals of hundreds of thousands of square meters of land area also abound, and what does it mean? This means that the example is not in vain!
The point is, you can't see it yet, you can't find it yet, and you don't have the ability to prevent it, which is the most fatal thing.
What is man-made knife and I am fish?
That's it!
What is Despair?
That's it!
Chen Geng did not stop, and said faintly: "This is the new use of combat aircraft such as the B52 that the United States has found: as a large-scale precision strike platform, before the outbreak of war, it can instantly launch a large number of expeditionary precision-guided weapons at the enemy outside the enemy's defense zone, so that the enemy will become deaf, blind or even stupid in a very short time, so that the command center and the combat unit will be disconnected, the combat aircraft and vehicles will not be refueled, and the enemy will have no ammunition to use...... In the end, they had hands and feet but had no power to fight back, so they could only lie there and let others beat them.
I think this idea, in fact, you can also learn from it, but to tell the truth, the H6 platform is too small, since you plan to change the hair for H6, why didn't you think of taking this opportunity to retry the new bomb plan of the year?"
"I understand what you mean, but our technical strength ......"
"Some things can be compromised and waited, but some things cannot be compromised and waited, and the research and development of weapons must be forward-looking, especially this kind of large combat aircraft, once it is mass-produced and put into service, it may be used for twenty or thirty years but thirty or forty years," Chen Geng interrupted him and said: "Although we don't know what the war model will be like after thirty or forty years, this does not prevent us from developing aircraft from the very beginning...... I actually prefer to call it an 'air combat platform'...... Reserve enough room for upgrades, such as the B52, although the design of this aircraft is very old, but because the aircraft itself is large enough, there is a huge room for upgrades, and your H6 is now stretched thin no matter what you do. Of course ......"
Speaking of this, Chen Geng shrugged: "This is just my family's words, whether you want to do it or not, how you want to do it, it doesn't matter to me, anyway, I am an engine producer." ”
"Mr. Chen, can you ......" He Kai hesitated, but still said in the future: "Can you ......?"
"Can't!" Before He Kai finished speaking, Chen Geng already understood what he meant, and he said without hesitation: "Mr. He, you know, that's impossible." ”
"Okay......"
He Kai let out a long sigh, he also knew that his idea was an extravagant hope: Why did Chen Geng help you get you the information on these two types of US military strategic-grade equipment? Don't forget, Chen Geng is an American, and he is also a super billionaire in the United States.
In the following time, He Kai felt that the time had passed so long that when the secretary asked him if he was okay and if he wanted to go back to rest early, He Kai, who had been in a daze for most of the day, was shocked and blurted out: "No! I want to see Minister Guo immediately!"
"Ah?!" Hearing the words of his own leader, the little secretary suddenly made a bitter face: "Boss, you see that it's all this now, Minister Guo must have slept, or let's go back tomorrow ......"
I went to visit Guo Wenxiang at ten o'clock in the evening, what kind of rhythm is this?
In the eyes of He Kai's secretary, this is clearly the rhythm of the old birthday star hanging himself and thinking that his life is too long.
"No, I have to go over immediately, I have something important to report to the minister!" He Kai's tone was extremely firm, and after a pause, he added: "Call Lao Xu first, Lao Xu wants to go with me." ”
Do you want to take Chief Engineer Xu to meet the boss's boss?
Although I don't know what happened, the secretary knows that maybe it's really a big deal.
…………………………
Things did get a big deal.
After returning to the Beijing Office, He Kai first called Boss Guo, saying that there was a situation that needed to be reported to him immediately, and then immediately took Chief Engineer Xu all the way - he didn't even have time to explain what happened to Chief Engineer Xu in the Beijing Office, so he could only briefly introduce the situation to Chief Engineer Xu on the way.
Not surprisingly, Chief Engineer Xu was also frightened by the situation introduced by He Kai: The United States already has an ultra-long-range cruise missile with a range of up to 2,500 kilometers, a flight altitude that varies between 50 meters and 150 meters, a common use of three platforms on land, sea and air, an end error of only 30 meters, and a warhead that can switch between normal or nuclear?
Damn!
This is a proper alien black technology!
As the chief designer of the H6, no one knows what this means better than Chief Engineer Xu, and no one means that the B52 strategic bomber, which has been redefined by the Americans as a "large precision strike weapon launch platform outside the defense zone", will burst out with amazing and terrifying combat effectiveness, as long as it is confirmed that the AGM-86B/C, A/BMG-109 two series of long-range cruise missiles are indeed true, and the performance is indeed as Chen Geng said......
"That's the big deal. ”
With trembling hands, Chief Engineer Xu, who lit the lighter several times, said to He Kai with a pale face and a wry smile.
He was sturdy and was frightened by He Kai's words.
"yes, it's a big deal. He Kai nodded solemnly, compared to Chief Engineer Xu, who had a white face like a layer of lime water, after such a long period of mental adjustment, his mentality has actually been much better, at least he has accepted this reality: "But the question is, what else can we do? The enemy has already made a move, unless we are willing to return to the era of slaughter forty or fifty years ago, no matter how many difficulties there are, how difficult the road ahead is, we must do everything we can to face the difficulties...... There will always be a way to solve the difficulties. ”
Chief Engineer Xu took a long breath: "That's right, there will always be a way to solve difficulties." ”
Although the enemy is very powerful and terrifying, at least we now have a DF-5 that will die with the enemy, right? Although the number is small, it can always make the enemy have some scruples?
