Chapter 877: Multi-Role Interceptor/Attack Aircraft
Speaking of the production line problem, this is almost the biggest reason why the previous face republic did not purchase the MiG-31 in the end: the production line. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, for the republic, the MiG-31 on the previous plane is quite good in terms of comprehensive combat capability, not only can it tease the surrounding fighters and special aircraft at high altitude and high speed, but it can even use the MiG-31 to mount heavy anti-ship missiles to directly attack at supersonic speed, and it is simply cool to fly after two heavy anti-ship missiles against the surface fleet.
It is necessary to know that as far as the impulse speed of the MiG-31 is concerned, after bringing a heavy supersonic sub-combustion ramjet missile, it can directly meet the minimum starting speed requirements of the engine, so this is the existence of an artifact, and with this thing, the republic can have one more threat to the aircraft carrier, after all, in terms of the external environment faced by the republic in these years, it is of course a good thing to have a different plan to strike the aircraft carrier.
When the time comes, there will be a combination of the YJ-18 anti-ship missile, plus a heavy anti-ship missile powered by a real sub-combustion ramjet engine, and perhaps an anti-ship ballistic missile.
Therefore, the MiG-31 can not only carry out interception operations at high altitude and high speed, but also can be equipped with heavy ramjet missiles against ships, and even further used to launch small anti-satellite missiles outside the atmosphere without any problems, there is no reason why the F-15 can work, and the MiG-31, which is more specialized in high altitude and high speed, cannot be played.
But having said all this, in fact, the last person of the Republic still did not put the MiG-31 into service in the end, that is, because when the MiG-31 fighter production line was discussed, in the end, the two sides did not thoroughly negotiate on technology transfer, which led to the MiG-31 and the Republic missing out.
But in any case, in the number suffix of the MiG-31, it should not only be an interceptor, the full name should be the MiG-31 multi-purpose interceptor/attack aircraft, who dares to say that the MiG-31 is useless except for high altitude and high speed, and the guy is equipped with a bunch of heavy anti-ship missiles must be dissatisfied.
If this plane can be introduced to the MiG-31 in a curve, it may also be possible to introduce the long-range air-to-air missile R-33 from Maozi, plus the anti-ship / anti-radiation missiles of the Kh-31 series that have been obtained in China at this time, it will be simply perfect.
However, the premise of realizing these ideas is that the Republic is indeed ready to equip the MiG-31 this time, and after purchasing these second-hand MiG-31s, it depends on whether it can be completely supported by the MiG Design Bureau, and after it can be combined with the overall level of the Republic's aviation industry, it is necessary to improve and upgrade these MiG-31s to the MiG-31BM level, so as to be able to have the above multi-purpose combat capabilities.
After thinking of these benefits, Yang Hui was also drooling: "If the Navy does not plan to introduce the MiG-31 production line, the overhaul line should be used as a condition to compensate for the Mukden side, and after they break the J-82 line, they can have the MiG-31 overhaul line as compensation and continue the technical capabilities of the supersonic interceptor, which should be of great benefit to Mukden and the army, as for our AVIC Southwest, it is not ready to mix with the troubled waters of the MiG-31." ”
For the MiG-31, this guy is a typical Soviet-based standard fighter, and now most of the AVIC Southwest in the aviation industry has gone through various previous efforts, combined with European and American standards to achieve a set of its own technical supporting production capacity, for a MiG-31 overhaul line to all kinds of troublesome supporting Soviet-based standards, which is obviously not cost-effective.
On the contrary, the Su-27 fighter unit localization project issued by the state has already been issued by the Fengtian Institute, and as military equipment that belongs to the Soviet Union, the Su-27 and MiG-31 are allocated to the Mukden side, at least in terms of cost, which is the most cost-effective approach, and this kind of upgrading and life extension tasks with the technical support of the MiG Design Bureau is a competent job for the Mukden side.
After comprehensive consideration, AVIC Southwest does not have the need to mix in the MiG-31 project this time, for this kind of project that is very good both on the surface and internally, we will be generous to send it out, and AVIC Southwest will not have a unique reputation in the future.
For such a good project can be handed over to people, AVIC Southwest is absolutely bold, but the navy shook its head at this time.
"This doesn't have to be, the final overhaul line is the question of whether you are in the southwest of AVIC, or the problem of the northeast of AVIC, it mainly depends on who gets the hands of the four generations of heavy annihilation in the end, if the fourth generation of heavy annihilation is in your hands in the southwest, it is naturally the best, and the overhaul line of MiG-31 will definitely be given to the Fengtian side of AVIC Northeast, but if it is the opposite, this overhaul line will belong to you AVIC Southwest."
This is not a question of the balance between the two major head offices that the Navy is considering, but the best plan based on a realistic consideration, after all, the current AVIC Southwest and AVIC Northeast have their own large fighter projects that need to continue to take at least ten years or so: the fourth generation of lightweight, Su-27 domestic improvement.
And when the time comes, if anyone gets the fourth-generation heavy battle project, it belongs to the two key fighter projects in hand, which will definitely involve a lot of energy of the company, in this case, it is obviously more suitable to hand over the MiG-31 overhaul line to the loser of the fourth-generation heavy battle, which can not only ensure that the project can be effectively promoted, but also be able to have a consolation prize for the loser, so as not to play dog skin again, to the whole so-called double push four generations out of the strong sense of existence.
For the fourth-generation light development that AVIC Southwest has launched at its own expense at this time, although this light is a bit unworthy of the name, at least this guy already has the essence of a medium-sized fighter in terms of size, but this does not prevent the fourth-generation light war on the Hongdu side from attracting the attention of the army.
At this time, the military research team had already secretly stationed in the Hongdu design team, and began some technical evaluations and corresponding technical requirements.
Therefore, at this time, Commander Zhang knew that this fourth-generation heavy war was the only fourth-generation aircraft project in China that still needed to be bid, and after losing this project, he would probably miss out on the fourth-generation aircraft, so it was indeed necessary to give a consolation prize, and it could also be regarded as giving a bite of food, lest it be true that if it was given to someone who starved to death, it would not be beneficial to everyone.
Yang Hui understands Commander Zhang's painstaking efforts, and at the same time expresses his approval: "Commander Gao, this is indeed the most appropriate, anyway, the establishment of the overhaul line is not in a hurry now, the main work at present is to collect and evaluate the MiG-31 left over from those CIS countries, and this also takes a period of time to procure, almost when our fourth-generation heavy war project is revealed, the MiG-31 project should also enter the formal promotion stage, so it is just right."
