Chapter 876 Anti-missile interception technology
The so-called distributed radar detection and locking tactic, as the name implies, is to assume a certain single-parameter detection task of the radar according to different characteristics, and then use the integrated computer to integrate several processed single parameters together to form a technical response method for the shooting elements to carry out the strike;
Taking the "Falcon" air defense missile system, which is now carrying out terminal anti-missile interception operations, as everyone knows, the core of radar determination of target technical parameters is nothing more than three, that is, distance, altitude, and speed.
If you deal with low-Mach number aviation aircraft such as ordinary combat aircraft, the general three-coordinate radar is enough to be competent for the comprehensive detection and settlement of the target, supplemented by fire control radar guidance, it is not difficult to hit the target, but ballistic missiles because of their fast speed, high interception accuracy, and strong anti-damage ability,
The detonation of the close-range fragmentation warhead in the usual sense cannot be stopped at all, and it is possible to completely destroy it only by having a head-on impact, and this requires the air defense and anti-missile system to calculate the interception trajectory and collision node in a very short time, to put it bluntly, it is necessary to calculate the amount of advance and determine when and where the two collide to ensure the destruction without harming ground facilities and personnel;
Not to mention the various high-performance computers that match them, the theoretical equations and operational solutions for settling the flight trajectory of ballistic missiles that are consistent with theory and practice can exclude most countries in the world from the threshold of air defense and anti-missile defense.
It is precisely for this reason that, looking at the whole world, only the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, have the confidence to get their hands on the so-called air defense and anti-missile technology, for no other reason than because both countries possess thousands of ballistic missiles, various types of ballistic trajectories, re-entry flight paths, warhead penetration means, and their own technical characteristics.

And these basic ballistic missile test data are precisely the core technology of air defense and anti-missile, which is like the four operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in mathematics.
The same is true for air defense and anti-missile, if there is no support from these basic test data, even if there is a high-performance computing that is unique in the world, it can only be an empty shell with a vain appearance, and it is of no use, because of this, even if the Soviet Union cannot be compared with France, Germany or even Japan in the field of military electronics, it can develop anti-missile interception technology comparable to the United States, and its root is here!
If measured by such a standard, China's overall technological strength, which is still at the level of the mid-to-late 70s, is obviously not comparable with the two superpowers of the United States and the Soviet Union.
According to the normal trajectory of development, this is indeed the case, but a small butterfly that inadvertently broke into this era, under the gentle vibration of its wings, inadvertently turned this trajectory a small arc, and it is precisely by relying on this arc that China not only has anti-missile interception technology, but also has a faint precursor to overtaking in a corner........
This little butterfly that changed the trajectory is none other than Lu Jiadong, who is in the depths of the Iraqi desert at this moment, as a military expert who has crossed over from later generations, the military technology in Lu Jiadong's mind can be described as many and miscellaneous, but if you look into it carefully, Lu Jiadong is not particularly proficient in these huge and complex technologies;
The reason why he can flourish in the field of military industry is nothing more than the convenience of knowing the development of the military industry in later generations, coupled with excellent basic knowledge, this is the current leader in the field of military industry, if Lu Jiadong's ability is only such a level, then he will not be able to afford the title of expert in later generations.
Lu Jiadong can afford to be called a military expert, mainly because he has extraordinary achievements that surpass others in a certain extremely important field, and this field is nothing else, it is the anti-missile interception technology that countless military powers are eager to follow, and it is precisely because of this that he was able to be appointed by the Central Military Commission as the chief person in charge of China's first-generation mid-course anti-missile interceptor missile Hongqi-19 missile;
And the reason why he was able to become one of the crossing troops was also because of the explosion of a failed mid-course anti-missile interceptor missile, so Lu Jiadong's mind carried countless technical materials related to air defense and anti-missile, you must know that it was a valuable basic data obtained by China from the end of the 90s to the beginning of the 21 st century, which was obtained after 20 years of continuous exploration, summarization, and testing.
The results achieved are no worse than those of the United States and the Soviet Union at present, and even surpass the Soviet Union in some respects, and are on a par with the United States.
It's just that Lu Jiadong's idea is good, and he also has enviable technology, but the foundation of China in this era is too thin, and no matter the theory, materials, manufacturing, and talents, it can bear the research and development needs of high-tech equipment such as anti-missile interceptor missiles, so Lu Jiadong can only be patient and start from scratch to build various supporting industries suitable for the research and development of anti-missile interceptor missiles;
It was not until he was transferred to the Northeast Heavy Industry Group that he felt that the time was beginning to be ripe, and then he took the "Falcon" air defense missile system as the basis and integrated the preliminary anti-missile interception technology into it, so as to train a large number of relevant technical personnel, and second, to test whether the relevant technology research and development and manufacturing capabilities meet the requirements, so as to lay a solid foundation for the research and development and production of real anti-missile interceptor missiles in the future..........
As for the core technology, with Lu Jiadong's authoritative status in this field, it is naturally not a problem, not to mention that the positioning of the "Falcon" air defense system is only a preliminary terminal anti-missile capability, and it can only deal with short-range ballistic missiles with a range of less than 500 kilometers;
For the basic data and solution equations of this short-range missile that is not separated from the warhead and the missile body, Lu Jiadong can be said to be at his fingertips, not to mention the low-end "Scud" missile, even if it is the complex penetration settlement function coordinate axis of the "Iskander", which can be called the king of short-range ballistic missiles, Lu Jiadong can write it down silently with his eyes closed.
Therefore, this kind of basic problem is not very difficult for Lu Jiadong, what really makes him difficult is that at this time, China's foundation is still a little weak, and it can neither provide a small computer with high computing efficiency, nor solve the problem of the composition of the material ratio of the collision warhead.
In desperation, Lu Jiadong could only make use of the existing technology to improve the terminal anti-missile interception capability of the "Falcon" air defense missile system as much as possible, so he had a slightly complicated radar grouping, because relying on China's existing technical means, it was impossible to achieve the capabilities similar to those of the AN/MPQ253 phased array radar attached to the "Patriot" by relying only on the YJL-10 phased array fire control mine.
Therefore, Lu Jiadong took a different approach: Since the radar alone cannot accomplish the complex reconnaissance and settlement work, he will divide the complex basic parameters into three, with the YJL-8 long-range early warning radar, which has the largest operating range, taking over the important task of detecting the range parameters; the YJL-10 phased array fire control mine, which has the highest accuracy and the fastest operating speed, tracks the specific speed of the ballistic missile; and the YJL-6 low-altitude blind radar is precisely able to shoulder the function of the altimetry radar because of its wavelength.
The three radars perform their own duties, the specific parameters of the detection are input into their respective computers, these computers may have some difficulty in processing comprehensive data, but it is not a problem to settle one or two specific parameters, so that the speed and efficiency of their calculations are naturally greatly improved, and then through the data transmission system, the single technical parameters are summarized into the large computer in the command cabin, so as to complete the incredible radar dispersion and locking work........
It's just that the combination of radar imagination alone cannot complete the final terminal interception task, and no matter how bright the eyes are, if there is no suitable sharp arrow, it will not be able to penetrate the incoming missile volley, and in the end it can only follow in the footsteps of the "patriot" and become a waste wood with a tiger's head and a snake's tail;
Therefore, the capability of the missile itself cannot be abandoned, especially the warhead, which must be reconstructed, and among them, the active radar kinetic energy collision warhead is undoubtedly the best choice, but at this time, China is simply unable to complete the development of this technology, which is extremely difficult, Lu Jiadong can only retreat this time, starting from the principle of high-speed flight of ballistic missiles, and reconstruct the detonation fuse of the "Falcon" air defense missile warhead..........
"When the ballistic missile is flying at high speed, because of the friction of air resistance, it will produce a lot of heat energy at the warhead position, and it is based on this principle that Mr. Lu added an infrared detonation fuse to the warhead of the 'Falcon' air defense missile, knowing that when the ballistic missile flies at the end, the fuel has been exhausted.
The infrared thermal radiation characteristics of the tail have been greatly weakened, only the characteristics of the warhead are the most obvious, and because of the small cross-section of the warhead of the ballistic missile, the general radio proximity fuse cannot be detonated even if it is close, so only the infrared detonation fuse is the most suitable, so our 'Falcon' missile can detonate close to the 'Scud' warhead, and use powerful anti-personnel fragments to destroy the close ballistic missile warhead, so as to complete the interception task!
Of course, due to the avant-garde nature of this technology and the limitations of domestic infrared optical technology, the hit rate of our 'Falcon' air defense missile is only 40 percent at best, but fortunately, Mr. Lu's ballistic missile settlement formula is very accurate, and coupled with the previous observation of the 'Patriot' interception operation, the ballistic characteristics of the 'Scud' missile have already been thoroughly mastered, and this can hit the quasi-........... of head-on interception."
In the short moment of waiting for the computer to settle the shooting of Zhu Yuan, Luo Zhenhai quickly explained the question that Zhou Rui was puzzled about, and as soon as his voice fell, the screen of constantly beating data in front of him suddenly straightened down, Luo Zhenhai insisted on staring at him, and immediately picked up the microphone on his lips, and ordered loudly without hesitation:
"Launch!" (To be continued.) )
