Chapter 238: Didn't fool the past

This was originally intended to be perfunctory, because Colonel Mido knew the flaws of this radar, he just didn't know that Qin Feng was actually so clear!

If he had known that Qin Feng had pointed out the flaws of the F-16-J79 and finally made the Air Force abandon the equipment, he might have taken it seriously.

Although China's aviation industry is backward, Qin Feng's vision is quite long-term. After all, Qin Feng has been reading advanced aviation knowledge abroad, not to mention anything else, just look at the large number of books that he brought back at the end of the weekend.

Such people are terrible, such countries are also terrible, don't look at them backward now, maybe, it won't be long before they become strong!

At Qin Feng's insistence, Colonel Mido could only agree: "Okay, when you return, turn on the radar search again." ”

When it comes to the radar of fighters, this is a necessary equipment, and some people will think that the radar of fighters is turned on when they take off and turned off when they return, but in fact, of course it is not.

In addition to consuming valuable power to turn on the radar, another is that when the radar is turned on, it will also affect its lifespan, consuming a valuable data, MTBF, mean time to failure.

The standard for measuring the reliability of a fighter is to look at the number of times it has failed, if there are two accidents in a hundred hours of use, and this MTBF is 50 hours.

In later generations, with the continuous progress of technology, this time is almost always about 1,000 hours, so there is no need to worry much, especially for phased array radar, even if some transmitter units fail, the remaining units can continue to work, and this data is often tens of thousands of hours.

But now, this data is only a few dozen hours, so as one of the most important equipment on the plane, it is only turned on when it is needed, and it is turned off as soon as it is used up, and it must not be consumed indefinitely.

For Qin Feng, this flight had already consumed more than an hour of use time.

However, Colonel Mido has no other way, if he does not follow the other party's coming, this is a vacancy, and the other party can still bring it up in the future.

The fighter had already begun to return home, and at this time, the Mirage F1 fighter in front of him was already approaching the sky over land, and Qin Feng turned on the radar again.

On the radar screen, there was some clutter, but the bright spots of the target could still be seen, and then, as the Mirage F1 fighter continued to fly forward, suddenly, the target disappeared.

At this time, the distance between the two fighters was less than 20 nautical miles, Qin Feng was in the front row, and he could see the Mirage F1 flying in the direction of the airport with the naked eye, but on his screen, it was blurry.

Colonel Mido in the rear cabin could only wave his hand helplessly, which was completely expected by him.

On the surface of the sea, the search for a target is more or less the same, but on land, it is completely beyond its ability to find a target from the complex echoes.

The French are proud, this does not mean that the performance of their weapons is the first, their weapons are the least cost-effective, but they are still selling very well in the world, mainly because their weapons have few political attachés, seizing a vacant opportunity, and those countries that cannot introduce Soviet fighters and American fighters are their export objects.

Qin Feng didn't turn off the radar, and continued to fly forward, and he could see that as he continued to get closer to the land, there were more and more bright spots on the radar screen, and when he completely reached the sky over the land, almost all of them were snowflakes on the radar screen, and nothing could be seen.

Sure enough, the analysis of the Americans is in place, and in terms of on-board avionics, France is not too far behind the United States, but in terms of radar, the French have a long way to go.

The Mirage 2000 fighter landed and then slid back to the tarmac, today it is mainly flying radar, so it is enough to have Qin Feng's intuitive feeling, and there is no need to analyze too much flight data.

"The radar of this fighter is generally good." Half an hour later, Qin Feng introduced everyone in the conference room: "If you deal with large targets, you can guarantee that they will be found on a hundred kilometers." In continuous tracking mode, the locking distance is about 50 kilometers, and in tracking and scanning mode, the locking distance is about 40 kilometers, which is completely sufficient with the medium-range missiles of this fighter. ”

The most lacking in the country is the medium-range interception capability, and the F-16 fighter was denied at the beginning, in addition to the castrated version, there are also reasons why this fighter cannot carry medium-range interceptor missiles.

The Mirage 2000 has a complete weapon system, all of which are developed by France itself, for example, in terms of medium-range air-to-air missiles, it has a super 530D radar-guided air-to-air missile, which has a maximum launch distance of 40 kilometers and can carry out upward attacks on targets with an altitude difference of nearly 10,000 meters.

However, this project is not within the scope of test flights, and it is impossible to test launch a missile, after all, that thing, one is hundreds of thousands.

Qin Feng's evaluation is objective, yes, it can be satisfied in terms of interception.

"However, the downward vision ability of this radar is a mess." Qin Feng continued: "On the sea surface, the discovery distance of about twenty kilometers can be achieved, but on land, it is almost zero. ”

The ability to look down is also important to oneself, the other party tried to use the downward view flight on the sea to fool the past, but unfortunately Qin Feng was not fooled, this experiment, on land, was also carried out, and nothing could be seen at all, Qin Feng described it as a mess, and it was not wrong.

After Qin Feng finished speaking, the French experts present had ugly faces.

Colonel Midau did not speak, and a Dassault expert next to him spoke. "For this land downward vision capability, our domestic Thomson company is further improving, and the latest RDY radar is also under development, believe us, this problem will be solved soon."

Of course, the French are also clear about the problem of radar, for example, the French Air Force does not want this radar at all, compared to what cross-era significance proposed by Dassault, the Air Force is not cold, and the Air Force only knows that this thing is useless.

But there is no way, on the one hand, France's current technology is like this, on the other hand, in order to support Dassault's ability to promote the use of "French front-line equipment" radar when selling the Mirage 2000, the French government forced the French Air Force to procure, this number is 50 units.

However, the forced French Air Force secretly discounted it, and finally purchased only 37 units, and began to use the real pulse-Doppler radar RDY.

Most of the RDM radars were bought by the happy third brother and used happily for many years before they began to be replaced with new radars purchased by another joyful sky-high contract.

Now, this insignificant flaw of the radar cannot be denied, but they will soon improve it.
