(The subscription is dropping quite a lot, is there a problem with the plot again?) Or, should the gourd be burglar-proof again? ）

"These are indeed problems, although drones do not need to take off and land repeatedly and have a longer service life like fighter jets, but they also need to be able to make larger maneuvers and higher speeds...... Liu Yijiu nodded.

In terms of UAVs, the performance of all countries is not advanced enough, especially the ability to stay in the air.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which are only used as target aircraft and for simple work, are now difficult to use on a large scale to carry out various military tasks as they have since the beginning of the 21st century.

"Xiao Liu, we need to do everything we can to get more advanced drones to test our missiles, what should we do? Is it imported from abroad? Xia Fei frowned and asked Liu Yijiu.

He knew that the progress of China Southern University could not be too great.

Otherwise, he would have known the news a long time ago.

Only if we succeed can we get more funding.

"Nope! The price of the unmanned target aircraft of the US imperialism is too expensive! Liu Yijiu shook his head firmly, "Don't say that the funds in our hands can't afford to be wasted, even if we can, we can't do this." We need target aircraft, not one or two, anti-aircraft missiles need target aircraft for testing, air-to-air missiles need UAVs for testing, and even the combat performance of fighters needs UAVs for testing, how much can we import? ”

Liu Yijiu never thought of importing from abroad, even if the progress of the entire project was restricted. He will not agree to import from abroad either.

Just like the saying circulated by national defense science and technology workers in the past, if there are conditions, there are conditions, and if there are no conditions, you can also create conditions.

Once you choose to import from abroad. It would take more time to study other people's technical standards, and then imitate them, and use other people's standards to improve them, although it may be easier to make technological progress, but adopting such a method will severely weaken the ability of the Republic's scientific and technological workers to create new products.

The Soviet Union was strong because they always adhered to their own standards.

Even if there is no way, the technology was obtained from the Soviet Union or the United States. Liu Yijiu's purpose is also to get the technical standards of the Republic on these basis.

Although the Soviet R-77 air-to-air active radar-guided missile has technology, not all of the technology that the Chinese side will use. It's a part. The finished product in exchange also needs to improve the interface of the weapon system, otherwise it will be impossible to launch it at all.

"If we don't import it, what should we do? Why don't you do a test? Xia Fei said with a frown.

Liu Yijiu is simply brainless many times.

Time is of the essence. Can't you take a few mouths first to deal with emergencies? And then do your own technical research?

"Or do you want Iran or Iraq to help us with the real thing? Directly test the performance with real combat? Long Yaohua was also a little dissatisfied.

Although the Soviet Union is preparing to withdraw its troops from the border, the development of the republic's army requires that it must be equipped with more advanced fighters and missiles!

"No, we can change the Qiang-5 to an unmanned target aircraft!" Liu Yijiu gritted his teeth and said.

When Xia Fei and Long Yaohua heard this, they immediately jumped up, "No, absolutely not!" That's the most heavily equipped mainstream fighter in our troops......"

Liu Yijiu pouted and looked at the two big guys, and said with a disdainful expression. "What mainstream fighters? This thing is a generation machine, in the fifties and sixties. It's barely advanced, but now? This thing is a backward thing! I don't even know what the leaders of the Air Force think, why are they still producing the Strong Five? ”

The Qiang-5 is a single-seat, twin-engine supersonic light attack aircraft developed by China based on the J-6 copied by the Soviet MiG-19. The length of the aircraft is 16.73 meters, the height of the aircraft is 4.51 meters, the wingspan is 9.7 meters, the maximum take-off weight is 11,300 kilograms, the maximum bomb load is only 1,500 kilograms, and what is even worse is that the combat radius of this thing is only 400 kilometers - 600 kilometers!

Although this kind of fighter was developed to support the ground forces in combat, and it can also be used in air combat, the final facts have proved that this thing is only when it was first developed, and the performance of the same type of attack aircraft in the Soviet Union and the United States is almost the same!

Now that we have entered the 80s, the fourth-generation aircraft of the Soviet Union and the third-generation aircraft of the United States have begun to enter service, and China is still continuing to improve this kind of old aircraft, and until the 21st century, the Republic is still throwing money at this kind of aircraft.

In the end, after countless known results were thoroughly confirmed, when this old old aircraft that could no longer be used was completely decommissioned, the Republic was equipped with thousands of aircraft!

At that time, the role of this fighter was to mothball it and transform it into a drone for various military missions and target aircraft!

The most fatal flaw of the Qiang-5 is that the electronic equipment for navigation and fire control is too backward, which makes the effect of ground attack very unsatisfactory, and the combat capability at night and under bad weather conditions can almost be described as "not worth mentioning."

It's not that the Air Force doesn't know, but the Air Force knows it, but there is no other more advanced fighter to replace the position of the Strong Five.

"With so many shortcomings, the Air Force is still carrying out a lot of equipment...... Even if we give advanced avionics systems, are these things worth tens of millions of dollars worth of avionics systems? No matter how much it can be improved, it will be able to increase the combat radius to more than a thousand kilometers? ”

Liu Yijiu said directly and disdainfully to the two military bigwigs.

"Changing to a target aircraft, or even an unmanned attack aircraft, we have the largest number of equipment in China, so that we can make the most of it......" Liu Yijiu knew the fate of Qiang Wu, so he didn't want the Air Force to invest more in it.

The Air Force has been investing in the improvement of the Strong Five.

The fifth master was doomed to the dilemma of "congenital insufficiency and acquired disorder" from the very beginning, no matter how he changed it, it was all in vain.

The size of the aircraft is too small, and no matter how much it is improved, it will not be of much use.

As Liu Yijiu said, if an aircraft with a low cost adopts an advanced radar such as pulse-Doppler radar and a more advanced avionics system and a computer-aided system, then the combat radius is only more than 400 kilometers and carries more than one ton of ammunition......

The picture is too beautiful, Liu Yijiu can't think about it at all.

Whether it was Long Yaohua, Xia Fei, or even Jiang Sen and others, they all became gloomy.

What Liu Yijiu said is not wrong, if this is not the case, it will not be copied in the F-14, and the Air Force wants to carry out the installation?

"Mr. Zhao, if you change Qiang Wu to a target machine, how long do you think this work can be completed?" Liu Yijiu did not discuss whether Qiangwu was suitable for transformation into a target machine.

Zhao Xi frowned and said, "Director Liu, is it too wasteful to use strong five?" ”

"How can it be wasted? Anyway, the target aircraft are basically disposable consumables, and they are directly transformed with those old fighters retired from the Air Force, and even if the engine is aging, the aging of the equipment is not a problem. This in turn leads to more cost savings. "Using retired fighters as target planes is a cost-saving thing," Minister Xia, what do you think of this plan? ”

In such a situation, what else can Xia Fei say?

Moreover, Liu Yijiu did not say that he would use the new fighters in service with the troops, nor did he say that he would produce new fighters to be used as target planes.

"Many of the retired strong five are mothballed and prepared for ......war."

"We don't use a lot. It's also a waste of space to put it there. When new fighters come out, these backward fighters naturally have to make way for new fighters. Although the price of the Strong Five is cheap, it is simply not able to deal with more advanced fighters......"

What Liu Yijiu said was the truth.

The combat radius of the strong five is too short, and the radar has not yet detected the enemy, the enemy has already begun to launch missiles, and in the end it can only become a target in the air.

The enemy can fire these fighters before they are detected, or use high mobility to engage in dogfights at close range, how can the old body of the strong fifth master withstand the toss? Not to mention anything else, if people stay in the air for an hour or two, Qiang Wuye will have to go back and refuel several times......

"If you use the strong five changes of retirement, it should be able to be completed in three months. Of course, this is under the condition that the control system is perfect, and moreover, Qiangwu is more complicated, faster, and better performance than Changkong One, and it is likely that it will not be easy to control it......" Zhao Xi nodded when he saw Xia Fei, weighed it, and estimated that it would be completed in two months.

But he still conservatively said it would take three months.

"Okay, let's use the retired Qiangwu to change the target machine! Of course, the improvement of Changkong No. 1 has to continue, after all, it is also a bit of a waste to change the target aircraft of the strong five. If we can develop more advanced UAV technology, we can directly remotely control the UAV of Qiang Wuye to carry out battlefield support tasks in the future......" Liu Yijiu gave Xia Fei and others a promise.

Transform it into a drone capable of performing combat missions with the Strong Five!

Xia Fei agreed with Long Yaohua and the others, and things were easy to do.

The Republic has mothballed a lot of the old Qiangwu, especially those prototypes.

If Liu Yijiu wants to transform into a target machine, he naturally has to choose the most backward and oldest, otherwise it will be a waste.

Zhao Xi didn't have any opinion on such a thing, but Liu Yijiu was still unhappy, because the too backward Qiangwu couldn't make the performance test of the missile more perfect.

The fifth master has a special significance for the Air Force of the Republic.

The Qiang-5 is the most equipped model in China, especially on the Sino-Soviet border, Xia Fei agreed, and mobilized ten retired Qiang-5 basic models to Zhao Xi for them to transform into unmanned target aircraft, and these transformation work was carried out directly in the relevant factories of China Southern University of Aeronautics.

The work of transforming a fighter into an unmanned target aircraft is actually much simpler than that of a new one.

Because it is only necessary to install transponders, remote control receivers and other remote control equipment on the fighter. You don't need to perform too many control actions and commands, and you can even reduce the weight of the aircraft a lot and get higher speed!
