Chapter 804: The New Life of Old Radar
As for the anti-stealth radar will be rejected by the military, in fact, Lu Jiadong has long predicted, you must know that in later generations, the anti-stealth radar will attract the attention of various countries after the Gulf War, and before that, let alone China, even the Soviet Union, which is in a state of confrontation with the United States and has extremely strong intelligence capabilities, does not believe that the United States' stealth warfare will have combat effectiveness beyond imagination.

It is precisely for this reason that before the Gulf War, the military decision-makers of various countries all had a skeptical attitude toward stealth fighters and maintained an ambiguous wait-and-see attitude, just as various countries treated the confrontation in the field of electronic information; although the Anglo-Argentine naval battle was fully exposed, and there was also Israel's cheerfulness in the Bekaa Valley, they still did not raise electronic warfare to a strategic level to examine, but used it appropriately as an auxiliary means.
Until the Gulf War, the multinational forces led by the United States used an almost perfect performance to interpret what modern war is in front of the world, and its shock was no less than the coordination of infantry and artillery during Napoleon and the blitzkrieg during World War II, which made the whole world sigh dumbfounded.
At the same time that the war can be fought in this way, it also sounded the clarion call for a new round of military reform in the world, thus pushing the form of war and the style of operation to a new peak, and also making the multi-dimensional mode of warfare and the attack and defense of stealth fighters a topic and direction for many military technicians..........
All in all, a Gulf War broke all the previous cognitions of the military and the military industry, and then began to take steps to catch up, but in the face of the huge gap in military technology and equipment system, China is not moving smoothly on the road of catching up.........
You must know that the Western world led by the United States will not stand still, waiting for you to catch up, and with the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War, the United States instantly dominated the world, relying on the huge Cold War dividends, the United States entered the "golden decade" of the most rapid development.
In particular, the gradual rise of new science and technology has led to the rapid development of the US military industry, and a series of high-tech equipment such as the B-2 strategic stealth bomber, the F-22 stealth fighter, the Arleigh Burke-class missile destroyer, and the "Tomahawk" cruise missile have been put into service one after another, giving the US military even more wings.
On the other hand, China has a weak foundation in the field of high technology, and there are even many high-tech equipment and tactics that are unheard of and unseen, so that China has to start from scratch in many fields, and this has also led to the relatively slow development of related equipment;
In addition, after the end of the Cold War, the United States was on guard against and suppressed China due to various internal and external factors, not only frequently using the T region to bring China into submission, but also building two arc-shaped island chains in an attempt to trap China, and at the same time cutting off China's technological exchanges with other countries as much as possible, successively promoting a European arms embargo on China, blocking the export of weapons and equipment to China from Eastern Europe and the former Soviet republics, and prohibiting Israel from selling high-tech weapons and equipment to China.........
A series of moves by the United States have made China under a sharp increase in external pressure at the same time, but also made it difficult to develop equipment, so that China can only be in a passive defensive position for a long time, and even once could not even come up with effective means of counterattack, and there is no way to only hold the nuclear ~~ weapon firmly, because only it can make the United States afraid of three points, it can be said that if China does not have nuclear ~~ weapons in its hands, the United States will act more unscrupulous.........
Lu Jiadong, as a military expert who traveled through later generations, knows that depressing stage, so he has been preparing, from the original Type 78 assault rifle to the tank known as the king of land warfare, from 52 times caliber artillery, modular rocket artillery, to the initial prototype of the J-9 and high-tech aircraft, and even the new air defense missile system being developed at present, what Lu Jiadong is doing is aiming at the future of modern warfare, that is to say, he is trying his best to build a combat system with both offense and defense.........
The anti-stealth radar system is an important part of this system, after all, in the future war, the role of stealth fighters will become more and more important, if there is no set of clairvoyance to find its whereabouts, the ears of the wind, it is bound to be in an extremely passive position in the future confrontation;
It is precisely on this basis that Lu Jiadong will vigorously promote the development of anti-stealth radar, even if he only uses the extremely vague records in the US defense magazine as the reason and data basis as an excuse, he does not hesitate to push forward this project, even if it is questioned or even rejected by the military, he will not waver, because Lu Jiadong does not look at the present, but in the near future, and does not do a towering skyscraper, but a foundation buried deep in the ground and obscure.........
In this way, after Zhou Rui's denial, the anti-stealth radar system demonstration meeting held specifically for the military~~ committee research group also came to an end, and Lu Jiadong did not lobby the army~~ committee research group to accept the anti-stealth radar as others expected.
behaved indifferently, so that many people were wondering if Lu Jiadong really cared about this project, otherwise why would he let this project go its course, and even the research team of the Military ~~ Committee was ready to leave, and he didn't say half a word to save him, did Zhou Rui's words really make Lu Jiadong disheartened?
Many people speculate that the eighth layer will be like this, especially the group of troops~~The young officers of the committee's research team, after Zhou Rui's questioning and rejection, the little admiration for Lu Jiadong suddenly disappeared, and some even ridiculed Lu Jiadong for being Jiang Lang's talent, and could only rely on fantasy to maintain his lofty status, and made the anti-stealth radar an out-and-out modern version of the emperor's new clothes, in order to earn enough gimmicks in order to get state funding, but more people only felt a little unbelievable, and only felt that with Lu Jiadong's shrewdness and ability in the past, it was impossible to make such a mistake..........
Just when people were sarcastic, regretful, or puzzled that Lu Jiadong might give up the anti-stealth radar, or that this model would be gone out in the near future, Lu Jiadong answered the questions from all sides with practical actions, and the anti-stealth radar will not only continue, but also speed up the progress, and as part of the new air defense missile system, it will be assembled and rolled off the assembly line before March 90.........
As soon as the news came out, the entire military and military industrial system were shocked, no one expected that Lu Jiadong would insist even if he was rejected by the army, although this insistence made some people think deeply, but it made more people think that Lu Jiadong's insistence was completely for the sake of face, even Jiang Huichuan, Guo Qingshan, Zhou Rui and others, who were familiar with Lu Jiadong, shook their heads again and again after hearing the news, only thinking that Lu Jiadong was too unnecessary;
However, Lu Jiadong did not think so, and still organized a strong technical team to continue to carry out in-depth research on the anti-stealth radar, fortunately, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia provided sufficient funds for the development of the radar, coupled with Song Xiaoxu and others firmly believe in Lu Jiadong, the development of the anti-stealth radar has not been interfered with by the chaos of the outside world, and after months of hard work, the anti-stealth radar has finally achieved remarkable results, but even so, like the time of the white horse passing through the gap, the entire radar system development team is becoming more and more depressed.........
"According to the degree of mobility, power consumption, maturity and maintainability, the use of phased array radar is the best choice, but it has been less than half a year since the bidding test of Iraq ahead, and it is obviously not .........enough time to rebuild a phased array radar."
At dusk, Lu Jiadong had just arrived at his residence at the Shuangcheng Weapons Test Site, located 200 kilometers northwest of Shencheng, and before he had time to rest, he received a feasibility report from Song Xiaoxu on the anti-stealth meter-wave radar, in which Song Xiaoxu determined that the anti-stealth meter-wave radar would use a phased array system, be deployed in a vehicle-mounted mobile manner, and be integrated into the latest computer systems and signal processing circuits based on the success of previous theoretical research.........
It can be said that the overall performance is in the forefront of the world, but the time required to develop such a radar greatly exceeds the time of the bidding for the Iraqi air defense missile system in March 90, so Song Xiaoxu proposed several solutions in the feasibility report, hoping that Lu Jiadong can make a decision, but Lu Jiadong was not very satisfied after reading it, so he called Song Xiaoxu, who was still in Shencheng, on the phone and talked about his views:
"And the several solutions you provide are just simplified versions of phased radars, although the performance has been reduced, but in essence, it is still developing a new radar, and the time consumed has not been reduced much.......... So I don't think it's very feasible........"
"But there's nothing to be done right now. Song Xiaoxu's voice on the other side of the phone was a little tired, obviously he was working overtime these days and didn't rest well:
"If you want to have good detection performance for stealth fighters, the phased array system is the best choice.........."
"It doesn't necessarily have to be a phased array system, but ordinary mechanical scanning is fine..........."
"Mechanical scanning?" Before Lu Jiadong finished speaking, Song Xiaoxu couldn't wait to speak: "Although the technical difficulty of re-developing mechanical scanning radar has been reduced a lot, it will not be enough to test and assemble all the systems in half a year.......
"You don't understand what I mean, the mechanical scanning radar I am talking about does not necessarily have to be redeveloped, why can't it be modified by using old radars? You must know that the basic performance of the 515-meter wave radar commonly equipped in our country is still relatively passable, so why don't we use modern means to rejuvenate these old radars............ )
