At the same time as locking on the target, the automatic control system of the cannon immediately began to adjust the direction after receiving the command, and the computer began to calculate all factors such as ballistics.

Hearing the prompt, Lao Bai immediately pressed the hair shè button, in order to test, at Xu Ziling's suggestion, Lao Bai agreed to choose a single shot, so as soon as the button was pressed, the cannon only issued a pill.

The radar field of view of the "Thunder Dragon" synchronizes the data to the command center of the base after takeoff, so the people in the command center can see all the movements of the "Thunder Dragon" very clearly under the dual monitoring of the radar video and the defense system of the base.

Starting from Lao Bai's words, to the cannon automatically adjusting the direction of the shè attack, and then firing the shè, this time is only a few seconds.

"Bang". A puff of dust rises from the target, and the infrared device of the security system detects the little red dot that originally belonged to the rabbit's life, and it disappears immediately.

"Hit!"

Xu Ziling pulled the radar image closer and came to a close-up, and everyone saw that the target was indeed hit by a cannon shot, and the rabbit as the target was completely torn apart under the impact of 30 mm ammunition, and the bones were gone.

"Good!"

Seeing such a result, everyone cheered!

In the past, although the helicopter cannon was assisted by a radar system and an aiming helmet, it could not adjust the shè attack parameters during the continuous movement of the aircraft after the automatic locking of the target.

In other words, the target range of the previous helicopter cannon was only an approximation, not jīng, and the cannon needed to fire multiple ammunition to accurately hit the target.

If it's a target moving at high speed, it's more likely that it won't hit the target at all.

But the Thunder is different, no matter what kind of flight attitude the machine is in, the automatic control system of the cannon can adjust itself, and it will not miss the target due to the high-speed movement of the target.

The people in the command center were either familiar with air combat or had a certain understanding of air combat, and they also discovered one of the problems when Lao Bai selected the target and hit it.

That's when the goal is in their three o'clock direction!

What does this mean? The cannons are mounted on the aircraft, and they are all installed in the forward and reverse direction at twelve o'clock, that is, they can hit targets in the direction of three o'clock, which means that the cannons can hit targets within at least 160 degrees.

Although I heard Xu Ziling say that the Thunder Dragon's cannon can hit targets within a 360-degree range, after seeing with my own eyes that it can hit targets within 180 degrees, everyone's feelings are different.

It is important to know that the maximum strike range of the guns of all armed helicopters today is 180 degrees. And judging from the performance of the Thunder Dragon, at least it can prove that the Thunder Dragon is ahead of the world in terms of machine guns.

Because it can not only hit 180 degrees, but also achieve the effect of hitting with one shot at a range of 1500 meters. Everyone has this account in their hearts, counting all the armed helicopter aircraft, there is no model that can achieve such a hit rate, this is not the leading level of the world?

Although Zhu Gang is the boss here, he is now the same as everyone else, and his heart is extremely excited.

When he first listened to Xu Ziling's own introduction, he felt that this "Thunder Dragon" was quite demonic, but what he heard was always very different from what he saw.

This was the first time he had seen that the cannon on the plane could be used as a sniper rifle, not to mention the other weapons on the Thunder, and he was already very satisfied with the current performance.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't want Xiaolong to have a better performance, but he feels that Xiaolong can have such a performance, which has exceeded his expectations.

Cannons can do this, so aren't other rockets, air-to-ground, and air-to-air missiles more expected?

It's a pity that I didn't put these on for experimentation. When Zhu Gang thought of this, he felt a little regretful.

When everyone was amazed by the performance of "Thunder Dragon", after Lao Bai had his first success, he is now having a lot of fun.

"It's really exciting, with this thing, I really don't want to fly in the future, I think it's more cool to be a fireman."

He sighed as he searched for a new target.

"It's okay, you have such an idea, I'll talk to everyone when I go back later, and I guarantee that someone is willing to fly."

Listening to Lao Bai's words, Xu Ziling smiled and squeezed him.

"Uh...... That's all I have to say, don't hurt me. ”

At this time, the two of them were not talking in the channel, but communicating in the plane, but they were not afraid that the people in the command center would hear it, if they were talking in the channel, Lao Bai's words were heard by the people in their flight team, and it was estimated that they would have fun watching it.

In fact, he was really conquered by this demon's machine cannon, think about it, the machine gun of the "Thunder Dragon" can be so powerful, so aren't the other weapons even more powerful?

On the battlefield, there is such a sharp weapon, which must be invincible, so if such a battle starts, it is refreshing to think about it, not to mention the fireman who is responsible for firing.

But thinking about it, if he really changed to not fly, but to be responsible for firepower, he really wouldn't do it, after all, flying is his favorite.

After the joke, Xu Ziling still had something to remind Lao Bai, so he said to him: "Lao Bai, the cannons and missiles on the Thunder Dragon can carry out 360-degree strikes, but there is one thing you have to remember, that is, his rocket nest." ”

"The rocket nest is because of its size, and its installation location, so we can't make big changes at all, and because of the limitations of the rocket itself, it doesn't have a guidance system, and it is impossible to automatically find the target, so when using rockets, you must pay attention to it, this thing is not where you want to hit."

If you want to talk about the shortcomings of the "Thunder Dragon", Xu Ziling thinks that the rocket is one in this aspect.

Because the volume and length of the rocket launcher are so large, and the short wings on the plane can only be at the current size and position due to some problems such as fuselage balance, so even if Xu Ziling designs the automatic control device of the rocket launcher, it cannot be equipped at all.

Because the short wing is only so long, and the short wing is also in the middle of the fuselage, even if there is an automatic control system, the rocket generator can't rotate, and even if it can rotate after 10,000 steps back, because the rocket generator is hung below or above the short wing, if the generator is facing the fuselage to send shè ammunition, it will be the result of hitting itself.

Xu Ziling did not think about solving this problem, but if the rocket launcher is also equipped with an automatic system, the length of the short wing must be increased and the position must be changed, which will inevitably cause some problems such as the flight stability of the entire fuselage.

In other words, if the rocket launcher is to be automated, the design and layout of the entire aircraft will have to be changed.

And Xu Ziling can't do this now, although there are things in the lion's plan that can solve this problem, but some of the things involved in that plan can't be made in this era, so he was also very entangled in his heart at that time to choose the current plan.

Lao Bai has been working on the armed helicopter for so many years, of course, he knows this thing, and when he heard Xu Ziling's reminder, he immediately knew what he meant, you remind them, don't think that other ones can be automated, and then they are used to thinking that rockets can also automatically lock on to the target.

"Well, I know what to do."

"But you can also try it, although it can't be rotated 360 degrees, but I still made a slight change at the time."

"I thought about the problem of automation at the beginning, but I found that it could not be realized, but I made a small change on the hanger between the rocket launcher and the short wing, so that the rocket launcher can move up and down 30 degrees, and it can have a little assistance to the target, and you can experience it when you use it."

Xu Ziling himself was not a professional trainer, and his previous explanation focused on the aspect of cāo and some subsections on weapon systems, which were not clearly explained at the time.

He also talked about the rocket nest, and then remembered that there was such a function, so he told Lao Bai that if he hadn't carried out live ammunition, he might have forgotten this function.

When explaining some precautions, Xu Ziling said it in the channel, so when he said this, not only Lao Bai heard it, but even the people in the command center heard it clearly.

When Xu Ziling said that the rocket nest could not be automated, everyone thought that this was normal, after all, this problem was popular, not only the Thunder Dragon, but all armed aircraft could not.

But when he said that he could move up and down 30 degrees, everyone's hearts were hot again.

This function is a complete surprise for everyone, think about it, although it can't be like a cannon, but with this 30-degree movement up and down, it means that the firepower coverage area of the rocket nest is much larger, and it can also be more flexible and accurate when firing fire.

When the rocket is on the helicopter, it must rely on the aircraft to dive to be able to strike at ground targets, and once the aircraft dives, it means that it is lower from the ground, so it is very likely to be hit by the air defense force on the ground.

However, with this move, once you want to use the rocket nest in the future, you will not need to dive at all, which will increase the safety of the pilot and the aircraft a lot.

Lao Bai has participated in a lot of actual battles, and he can be said to be the person with the most right to speak on this issue, listening to Xu Ziling, his first thought is this.

In the past, when there was a mission, on the battlefield, once there was an armored unit, then the rocket nest would be used, but the problem was that once the rocket nest was used, he had to complete the ammunition in a dive posture with the plane in a swooping position.

At this time, in some places where the terrain is more complicated, shè rockets may have just begun to be fired, but the altitude of the aircraft has already reached a relatively low position.

The air defense on the ground, even if it is a high shè machine gun, it is possible to shoot down the plane, and every time he encounters such a situation, Lao Bai is terrified, but every time he can rely on his jīng Zhan's skills to save the day, but he also thought that maybe one day, he will be able to be shot down if he reacts a little slower.

But when he heard Xu Ziling's introduction, he no longer had any worries in his heart
