Chapter 824: Time is running out
General Lin likes J-10, since the beginning of this project, General Lin has been supporting, every time J-10 arrives at an important moment, his shadow will appear, his expectations for J-10 are very great, now, although the test flight of J-10 is being carried out in an orderly manner, in his eyes, there is nothing else, just feel slow, it is too slow!
"Yes, we Jianshi must speed up the pace, but, General Lin, please rest assured, this kind of ground attack, our Jianshi can fully undertake the mission." Qin Feng said: "Just like the F-16, don't look at the initial design according to air combat, but the foundation of the third-generation aircraft is very good, and it is completely no problem to modify it into a ground attack aircraft." ”
The F-16 also has a similar mission, when it was first designed, it was prepared according to a pure combat fighter, what is the representative of the theory of energy maneuvering, the first aircraft capable of reaching 9G overload, etc., sidestick operation, backward tilting cockpit, etc., are all for air combat combat, and even early models, which do not even have the ability to launch Sparrow missiles.
But what about now? Look at the F-16 equipped by various countries, air combat is important, but it is absolutely unambiguous to throw bombs, the strength of the third-generation aircraft is there, the self-weight is ten tons, and the bomb can also reach ten tons, this is the strength of the third-generation aircraft, and then look at the second-generation aircraft, such as the J-7, it is already very against the sky to be able to install one or two tons of plug-ins, and no matter how much it will not fly.
"Our J-10 fighter has a large wing area and low wing load, and is inherently a multi-mounted material, I estimate that it is no problem to hang a four- or five-ton bomb, especially if it is digital fly-by-wire, the flight control can be adjusted at any time to adapt to the mount, and the fire control system is also our own, so it is easy to throw precision-guided weapons." Qin Feng said: "We can fully assume the role of all-rounder in the air. ”
Qin Feng said very seriously, he understood what General Lin meant, Jian-10 fighters, mounted bombs to attack, small meaning, absolutely unambiguous!
In the future development trend of military aircraft, multi-function will gradually become the mainstream, and the types of fighters will gradually shrink, so that it will be convenient for logistical support and the performance of fighters.
Now, after Qin Feng finished saying this, he continued: "Of course, it is estimated that it is enough now, you should know that our J-10 is in a test flight, and after the success of J-10, the next project is the two-seat trainer type of J-10. ”
At present, what is urgently needed in China is air defense, and the territorial air defense force is weak, so it can only rely on aircraft like the Jian-8-2, and a small number of Su-27s are deployed in the south, and the air defense in the north is very weak, so after the Jian-10 is developed, it will definitely first equip the various air force units in the north and undertake the task of territorial air defense.
After entering the army, it will definitely face the problem of changing the equipment of the troops, and directly change the J-10 from the Jianjiao VII, the span is too large, so there must be a two-seat trainer type of J-10 to supplement, this is the next task, and when the research and development of this model is completed, then it will be able to engage in the model of ground attack, and then there will be a single-seat and two-seater, and you can change it as you want.
The fighter is its own, that is, it has this advantage, and it can be changed at will, if the fighter is introduced, and the technology is not thoroughly understood, it is not easy to improve.
Now, the development plan of Jian-10 has been made, of course, what Qin Feng said doesn't count, he just looks at these issues from the perspective of a test pilot, Qin Feng and General Lin discuss some basic issues in private.
"Therefore, the development of Jian-10 is urgent." General Lin sighed that he was urging every time, because he knew that time was running out.
"General Lin, if we buy a large number of Su-30s, will it impact the Flying Leopard fighter?" Qin Feng couldn't help but ask this question.
Now, the Flying Leopard has entered service with the Navy and is currently improving, especially by using the fire control technology developed in China over the years to refit and make the fighter have more advanced combat effectiveness.
The Su-30 was introduced, and the Navy was also introduced, so will it hit the Flying Leopard?
General Lin shook his head: "How could that be?" Flying Leopard and Su-30 just form a high and low match. ”
These two kinds of fighters, one self-developed, one imported, one cheap, one valuable, one with slightly lower performance, and one with very high performance, these two just form a complementary advantage.
Now, the positioning of the Flying Leopard and the Su-30 is really a bit like the positioning of the J-10 and the Su-27, Qin Feng nodded, and General Lin's analysis is very reasonable.
"Besides, the current Flying Leopard has limited production capacity, after all, the inventory of our Spey engines has been used up." General Lin said: "Now the navy is trying to find a way, if it really can't work, we can only buy a batch of Spey engines from the UK that still have a long life in stock to use." ”
General Zhang of the year, criticized the three major Yanmars, and really said that one of them was Spey engine.
When the country was opened, looking at the world, found their own backwardness, followed, decided to introduce the domestic technology to reach the advanced level, the UK is very active, after many negotiations, finally introduced the Spey engine, this thrust-to-weight ratio of about 6 second-generation turbofan, that is also the domestic can not produce advanced engine.
At that time, the idea was very good, the introduction of a batch of complete machines, and the introduction of technology at the same time, and finally reached their own production.
The result?
There have been a lot of changes in the middle, and their own imitation is not over, and up to now, the domestic can not use the self-produced blanks to produce qualified Spey engines.
After the stock of engines ran out, the Flying Leopard fighter-bomber was in an awkward position without engines.
Back then, the Flying Leopard fighter-bomber and the Qiang-6 were able to win the competition, and the use of Spey engines was also a reason, after all, these engines were placed in the warehouse to eat ashes, which was a serious waste.
And now, it's not a waste, it's the end that there aren't enough engines to use, which is extremely embarrassing.
For a long time, the engine has been his own shortcoming, because of this shortcoming, many projects have finally failed, Qin Feng heard General Lin's narration, and was full of emotion.
The same is true of the turbofan ten, which is still far away, and if the J-10 is pinned on the turbofan ten, the consequences are unpredictable.
Fortunately, we are on the right path.
"Our technicians are also studying technology, and strive to imitate the Spey engine as soon as possible to solve our urgent needs." General Lin said: "We owe too much money on the engine." ”
