Chapter 780: Unsatisfactory
Since China intends to directly launch a large aircraft carrier of 50,000 tons, it is unlikely that the construction of aircraft carriers will start in the current period of the entire 90s.
On the one hand, the development of various subsystems has not yet been finalized, and on the other hand, the country is still in the stage of vigorously developing the economy, so it is impossible to approve the launch of the aircraft carrier project at this time. Of course, it should have a lot to do with the Taoguang and obscure policy that has been pursued in China at this time.
But in any case, since the country does not plan to launch an aircraft carrier in the recent period, in fact, it does not have much impact on Yang Hui or for AVIC Southwest, J-18 is still the focus of joint development of the sea and air, a fairly good multi-role fighter project, this will not change because of the Su-27 to China, after all, the Su-30 at this time has not yet attracted the attention of the military of the Republic, the so-called multi-purpose ground attack platform of the Su-30, compared to the J-18, I still don't see anything outstanding.
The reason why the bigwigs want to come to AVIC Southwest is, of course, to focus on the J-18, which is also undoubted, including the multi-type ammunition prepared for the J-18.
And the Air Force is very concerned about this, because in their view, the ground attack capability is more tailored to the Air Force, and how much time does the Navy have to use this thing?
"Let's not talk about anything else, this time we came to AVIC Southwest to see the progress of the J-18 project, the aircraft is about to make its first flight, so you should all know the development of supporting airborne weapons, right?"
And when it comes to the development of airborne weapons, this has attracted everyone's attention, and the Navy is also no exception, although the development of the YJ-18 missile is a key project that the Navy is directly concerned about, and its priority and J-18 can even be regarded as a level, so the Navy is very aware of the progress of the YJ-18, but they also have a time for ground attack! For example, precision strikes on key military targets on islands, and the possibility of the navy launching attacks overseas after the construction of aircraft carriers in the future, all require the navy to have a strong ground attack capability.
Commander Zhang's body, which was originally half leaning on the sofa, also sat up, and the change process of his eyes also fully showed the psychological changes of the characters, and then he spoke: "Yes, we now need to know what the development progress of the low-cost precision-guided bomb mentioned earlier is, and the low-resistance bomb required before has been developed by the military for millions of dollars. ”
At the end of the day, the military is still concerned with low-cost precision-guided munitions, and more advanced laser-guided bombs seem to have been deliberately forgotten, which is really disappointing. However, the fact that the military can focus on satellite-guided munitions, rather than laser-guided munitions, which seems to have higher strike accuracy now, still proves that the military is knowledgeable and can see what ammunition represents the future.
Since the army knows the goods, and shouts to check the current progress of satellite-guided bombs, then take it out: "Regarding the problem of guided bombs, we have now solved all the problems, in the last year we produced satellite guidance components, installed them on low-resistance trainer missiles for weapon delivery tests, the range of unpowered gliding is still relatively satisfactory, and because we use a variable sweep wing design, the ammunition can realize the function of launching outside the defense zone, in the case of high-altitude dropping, The gliding distance can reach up to 36KM. ”
To be able to reach a gliding distance of 20KM, this is already a very remarkable progress, and if you want to increase the distance of gliding, it is necessary to install a booster rocket part, but this satellite-guided gliding flight bomb with a booster rocket is really embarrassed to be called a bomb?
With a power plant, a controlled flight and a movable wing, doesn't this become a missile? But don't say it, this kind of design does exist, at least the last Yankee did it, people not only did it, but they still dare to say that it is a guided bomb, in terms of shamelessness and blackness, it has been compared with the vertically launched precision-guided rocket artillery Condor 400 developed by the Republic.
Then again, although the bomb has indeed proved that the combination of satellite positioning and inertial navigation can be used as a low-cost guidance scheme for precision-guided munitions, Yang Hui knows very well in his heart that he must announce the test accuracy of the first batch of munitions at this time.
The news was announced almost with a black face: "However, due to various technical reasons, first of all, because we did not have our own navigation satellite at the time of development, the bomb used the GPS satellite civilian receiver that we obtained through special channels, and the civilian version of GPS was limited by the US military in terms of accuracy, which ultimately led to the error of the bomb's explosion not reaching the predetermined data." Of the four bombs used for testing, the maximum distance from the center of the bomb point was 26 meters. So, the test data this time is not pretty. ”
The radius is 26 meters, which means that the current error is close to the error data of 15 meters promised by Yang Hui before, you must know that at this time in the international mainstream level, the United States has been able to do it at an altitude of 8000 meters, and the hit accuracy of the 908 kg MK-84 bomb is controlled to 60 meters, so the gliding bomb made by the southwest of China Aviation is really not good in the first batch of tests, perhaps it should not use the word "accurate", but should be described as "accurate" to be more standardized.
And this time Yang Hui has not finished speaking, not only because the guidance signal is as simple as the civilian version of GPS, the reason why the bomb is not accurate in the strike test, but also because of the backwardness of domestic electronic technology, what needs to be known is that the most important core of the guidance component of the entire ammunition is not only the reception of satellite navigation signals.
What is more important is that the missile computer (attitude control unit) used for bomb flight attitude control is not yet up to the standard, first of all, the missile computer technology used this time also uses the previous development of the No. 10 and No. 18 aircraft, in the development of the airborne computer in the development of some technology centralized integration, is a typical 80s technology products.
In order to take care of the computer's performance, it can only use a relatively simple ballistic calculation scheme, which is the reason why the ballistic accuracy is not good in the end.
In addition, the development of gyroscopes in China is also lagging behind the United States, and the final result is what it is now, saying that it is precision-guided munitions, but the accuracy is really touching, but you have to say that he is not guided munitions, but the accuracy of 26-meter high-altitude bombs is indeed much stronger than that of free fall, so now this situation is also very tangled.
