The physique of a medium-sized fourth-generation aircraft, under normal circumstances, it is certainly impossible to require it to have such a thing as a built-in anti-ship missile, and even if that thing is forcibly stuffed into the bomb bay, it will not outweigh the losses, so the only thing that can be done can only be the underwing carrying method of the missile, so that when the aircraft performs anti-ship combat missions, it naturally does not consider stealth requirements. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Generally speaking, the combat capability of the fourth middle school is not omnipotent, and many places have been abandoned, and for the republic, of course, some tasks can be entrusted to the heavy fourth-generation aircraft project that is being demonstrated and the model is being tendered.

After all, now this heavy four is to put it bluntly, it is no different from the operational requirements of the previous heavy four projects, and the last fighter is almost destined to move closer to heavy and multi-purpose, and now this plane will definitely develop into this result in the end.

According to the requirements of the military of the Republic, the requirements of the anti-ship operation of the fourth middle school are naturally put aside and can be ignored for the time being, but the UAE is different, as a fighter positioned to take over the combat mission of the JF-18 fighter in the future, the UAE's hard indicators must require anti-ship combat.

"No, it is necessary to carry anti-ship missiles to carry out anti-ship combat missions, although the anti-ship missiles of the YJ-8 series are too large to be built into the bomb bay, but we can independently develop an anti-ship missile that can be compatible with the bomb bay of stealth fighters, anyway, it is necessary to ensure the combat requirements."

The republic's anti-ship missiles have many patterns, but no matter how many they are, they must be developed according to the operational requirements of the republic, which leads to the fact that even the lightest YJ-8 series anti-ship missiles weigh more than 1 ton.

Since it is targeted to design anti-ship missiles in accordance with the bomb bay of the middle four, then the unique design scheme of the bomb bay of the middle four, at this time it will play a key role, for the middle of the aircraft, its most striking is the large bomb bay in the middle of the belly, the depth and length of the bomb bay data are very good, the only problem is that it is not wide enough. The reason is that the side bomb bays on both sides partially occupy the belly space, otherwise it is impossible to open the side bomb bay with the physique of the middle four, and each side bomb bay can carry a close-range combat bomb and a medium-range bomb, and the disadvantage is that the bomb bay is relatively shallow and short.

In the face of this special situation, if the fourth secondary school wants to design an anti-ship missile, there can be some more interesting design schemes, at least at this time, Yang Hui has already thought of a very promising, and quite ancient anti-ship missile design scheme: ballistic air-launched missile.

In fact, the well-known anti-ship missile design scheme at present adopts the cruise missile flight mode, of which the subsonic cruise of the YJ-8 and Exocet sea-skimming flights is one of the development directions; Although there were many types of anti-ship missiles in the Soviet Union, most of them were also low-altitude sea-skimming and cruising flights, but these Soviet missiles could fly at supersonic speeds. Even the newer version of the Russian Club missile, the YJ-18 of the Republic, is dominated by a combination of the Asian Super League.

The purpose of the above-mentioned anti-ship missile design schemes is inseparable from the requirements of the missile's early cruising flight at medium and low altitudes, and its purpose is to be able to carry out low-altitude covert surprise attacks, so as to ensure the suddenness of anti-ship operations and make it too late for the target warship to react.

So is there any other way for anti-ship missiles in anti-ship warfare other than to use low-altitude sea-skimming raids?

In fact, there really is, another way is to make the speed of the missile faster, faster, and even supersonic speed is not enough, the requirement is best to be able to reach the terminal flight speed of hypersonic speed, and this terminal flight speed can reach the hypersonic combat indicators of the anti-ship missile, refers to the ballistic anti-ship missile.

The most famous anti-ship missiles designed using ballistic anti-ship missiles are the last anti-ship ballistic missiles of the Dongfeng series in the Republic, and the reason why the anti-ship ballistic missiles of the Dongfeng series can make the US military fearful is that this kind of thing is too fast, and the number of Mach numbers flying at the end is even as high as double digits, and the warhead with good performance can have the ability to maneuver and change orbits.

In the 50s of the last century, in order to make up for the poor accuracy and weak penetration capability of land-based intercontinental missiles at that time, the American Douglas Company developed the GAM-87 "Sky Lightning" (later renamed AGM-48) air-launched ballistic missile. The missile is designed with a two-stage solid engine, weighs 5 tons, has a range of nearly 2,000 kilometers, and has a maximum speed of 15,300 kilometers per hour (9,500 miles per hour), about Mach 12.

On the other side of the Cold War, the Rainbow Design Bureau of the former Soviet Union developed the X-15 (AS-16) air-to-surface missile, which was equivalent to the AGM-69, which could quickly climb to an altitude of 40 kilometers after launch, and at the end of a large-angle dive, with a velocity of up to Mach 5. The guidance method is inertial guidance + active radar terminal guidance, and even supporting anti-radiation missile models.

However, these air-launched ballistic missiles mentioned above are actually missiles that attack ground targets, and it is almost unthinkable to use air-launched ballistic missiles to launch attacks on warships on the sea surface before precision guidance technology and real-time intelligence and reconnaissance capabilities have developed to a certain extent.

The reason why the Republic was able to have the Dongfeng series of anti-ship ballistic missiles in the new century was because in the operational environment at that time, the Republic was able to build a huge combat system, including the monitoring of ships on the sea surface, the guidance accuracy of the missiles, and the maneuvering and changing orbit at the end of the warhead.

Now what Yang Hui is planning is also a ballistic anti-ship missile, so according to common sense, it is absolutely impossible for the current republic to organize a huge anti-ship ballistic missile system, on the one hand, there is no relevant funds, and on the other hand, because there is no relevant technology, so similar to the Dongfeng anti-ship ballistic missile model, the current AVIC Southwest is absolutely playful. 、

Or even if the republic can play around, with such a huge system, the UAE can also play around? (To be continued.) )
