Chapter 240: Hands on the pole
Fighters often fall into asymmetrical loads during flight.
Of course, the domestically produced J-7 fighter still mainly uses cannons to fight, and the wings are mounted with auxiliary fuel tanks, so when encountering a battle, as soon as you throw the auxiliary fuel tank, you can directly enter the battlefield, and there will be no asymmetrical mounting.
For example, there were two missiles on each side, but when it was launched, only one was launched, and at this time, it was asymmetrically mounted.
At this time, the plane is unbalanced, one side is heavy, the other is light, and the pilot has to press the operating stick, otherwise he will not be able to maintain balance. This is, of course, an extreme situation, and in peacetime, if it is only due to the light air-to-air missile, the payload is different, in fact, the impact is not too great.
Qin Feng secretly thought in his heart, these guys are also starting to fool now, they wanted to fool yesterday, and today they started again.
However, this can also be tested for flight, after all, it can be regarded as an asymmetrical mount.
Stepping into the cockpit, Qin Feng took two deep breaths, Qin Feng didn't pay much attention to this asymmetrical mount, so let's focus on bombing.
If one side hangs a ton of bombs and the other side does nothing, this is the asymmetrical load to the limit. However, this kind of extreme situation is rarely encountered, and Qin Feng was relieved when he thought of this, after all, if it was a heavy bomb, it would be mounted on the belly of the aircraft.
As for those domestically produced fighters, the plug-in ability is very poor, and there are not many full of them.
Takeoff!
Every time it is an afterburner take-off, this feeling of pushing back, so that Qin Feng will feel unforgettable for a period of time in the future, and when he flies the domestic fighter, he does not have this feeling at all.
This kind of fighter is a very easy to use aircraft, and now, Qin Feng has mastered its operation essentials proficiently.
Of course, this is also related to the audacity of France, if it is in the country, where do you dare to let it go so open, here, people will directly hand over the plane to themselves.
Last time, he had already flown the navigation, this time, Qin Feng skillfully pressed the navigation button, handed over the task of navigation to the airborne equipment, and soon, he saw the target in the distance, which was still the dam!
Last time, it was a dive attack, but this time, it is a bomb drop.
In fact, in modern attacks, the up-to-back bomb is rarely used.
For fighters, the most commonly used is dive bombing, this way of dropping bombs is the most accurate, even in World War II, dive bombing, it has created the accuracy of precision-guided munitions, many bombers, specifically dive bombers.
In addition to dive bombing, the second is horizontal bombing, which is a common way for large bombers, flying over the target, throwing bombs directly downward, especially dropping all bombs, carpet bombing, after passing, the scene is a mess.
When the plane climbs upward, the bomb is thrown out, and the bomb continues to fly upward, just like a cannonball, flying past the highest point and then falling again.
In this way, the error is the largest. At the same time, although it is not commonly used, it will be used in some occasions, and its biggest feature is that it does not need to fly over the target, pull it up, and throw away the bomb to go.
For example, during an ultra-low-altitude raid, if you want to throw a bomb, whether it is a dive or a flat throw, you need to climb first, and in this way, you will throw it out as soon as you climb, and you will turn around and leave when you throw it out, so as to avoid a strike in the opponent's fire defense area.
At the same time, there are some special equipment, such as nuclear bombs, which can be thrown as soon as possible to prevent nuclear radiation.
Now, Qin Feng is flying the most difficult upward bomb, after all, if you follow the previous way, it is very complicated to throw a bomb on the upper lean.
Before taking off, it is necessary to calculate the elevation angle in advance, the overtake range of the predetermined speed, and then select a suitable known reference point, calculate the flight time according to the distance between the reference point and the target and the predetermined flight speed, and then calculate the correction amount according to the wind direction and speed at that time.
Since these are all changing, they are not precise.
When it is time to attack, align the target, fly to the reference point, reach the reference point and write down the time, adjust the course to align with the target, fly enough to calculate the time and pull up, and drop the bomb according to the calculated elevation angle.
This kind of operation is extremely cumbersome, and any step will bring a big error, so generally speaking, this kind of bomb only chooses three fixed angles of 45 degrees, 90 degrees, and 110 degrees.
The more difficult the project, the more it can show the advanced nature of this weapon system, and now, Qin Feng adjusted the navigation system to the bombing, and the corresponding data appeared on the flat display in front of him.
"About to fly to the reference point." Qin Feng said.
He looked at the reference point displayed on the heads-up display, and soon reached the sky above the reference point, which was selected in advance, and the same reason as the regular aiming selection reference point.
Then, after reaching the reference point, Qin Feng's hand pressed another yellow button on the operating lever.
This is the memory button.
In the past, there was only one red button for domestic fighters, but now, this operating stick is very comfortable to hold, and at the same time, on the operating lever, there are also several buttons, which is also the latest technology, multi-functional operating stick, which can also be called the hand does not leave the stick system.
While Soviet fighters were still stacking more and more instruments into the cockpit at random, Western fighters had begun to follow ergonomics, and in order to minimize the difficulty of operation for pilots to devote as much energy as possible to combat during flight, they arranged most of the commonly used operation keys and switches on the steering stick and throttle control lever.
In this way, the pilot relies on these two operating sticks when controlling the flight of the aircraft, and the hand never has to leave the control stick when engaging with the enemy, which provides the pilot with more offensive opportunities and ensures the pilot's ability to control when the load is overloaded, which is the "hand does not leave the stick" control system.
In this way, the pilot can complete a series of actions such as operating the radar and controlling the weapon without taking his hands away in the process of controlling the flight of the aircraft, which can greatly reduce the difficulty of the pilot's operation.
As early as the early 60s, Canada's CF105 high-altitude high-speed interceptor adopted such a concept, and by the time the American F-15 fighter was developed, it had a revolutionary HOTAS joystick, which installed some switches and buttons often used by pilots on the throttle stick and joystick, and the previous cumbersome operation process could be completed by simply pressing the buttons on the joystick and throttle stick.
This French fighter, of course, also uses this concept.
The buttons of the joystick may be different for different fighters, but they can certainly greatly simplify the pilot's operation.
In the preparation in advance, it is necessary to enter the reference point and the location coordinates of the bombing in the navigation system, this is all the preparation, when aligned on the reference point, just follow the head-up display to operate!
