720. What is the use of this weapon?
Mufeng has already obtained the 2.0 version of the FC31 verification machine, and then used the world's technology to comprehensively upgrade and optimize.
Later, with the variable cycle engine technology, the engine and the body were upgraded for the second time, and the performance was once again improved to a certain extent.
The current J-35 Falcon has changed, and the maximum speed is still Mach 2.2, but the cruising speed has been slightly increased to Mach 1.6, and the maximum range has been greatly increased to 5,000 kilometers because of the application of variable cycle technology.
The performance of the falcon that has been modified by itself is stronger than the land-based version of the complete body F35A, not to mention the supersonic F35B.
Moreover, within the command alliance under their control, they will not be like those second-rate countries on the earth, especially concerned about the cost and difficulty of using warships, and there will be no military disputes similar to those within the United States.
Here, if you can do the work of a normal aircraft carrier, you won't use two attacks to make do with the F35B.
The aircraft carrier of the alliance of their own headquarters, whoever can install the falcon eagle will install the falcon eagle in the future.
An aircraft carrier that cannot be equipped with a Falcon is estimated to have a tonnage of no more than 20,000 tons, and an aircraft carrier of this size cannot do the work of the main force here.
Their job is to carry various helicopters, responsible for anti-submarine, transportation, landing and other work, and cooperate with the main aircraft carrier operations.
F35 is equivalent to the icing on the cake for them, and most of the time they can only keep it to eat ashes.
However, their subordinates are ship mothers, and their feelings also need to be taken care of.
For aircraft carrier mothers, the favorite thing is a better plane.
And these low-level aircraft carrier mothers usually do a lot of chores, but because of the limited size of the hull, they can't use other large aircraft.
In this case, the F35B becomes the best gift.
Even if you can't use it in actual combat, it's good to take it out and play it at ordinary times.
Mu Feng looked at his remaining technology points, and there was still a considerable part of the remainder, and finally decided to engage in F35B, anyway, the deep-sea base has been pushed away, and there is nothing to be rigid demand in the future.
The first is to carry out a comprehensive upgrade like the Falcon to solve some of the problems that exist in these relatively early models of the F35B.
The original user of the F35 was an amphibious assault ship of the U.S. Marine Corps, so they were originally designed to be a vertical take-off and landing fighter.
They were only used to replace the older Harrier fighter with the sister product AV8B, and the Air Force and Navy were later forced to plug in users.
Her initial must-have capability was vertical take-off and landing, which required the engine to have as much thrust as possible, and as much as possible to be single-engine, which could reduce the difficulty of development.
The designers modified the F119 engine of the F22 on the basis of the F119, sacrificing part of the high-speed performance, sacrificing part of the fuel consumption, and increasing the maximum thrust as much as possible, and finally obtained the F135, a high-thrust engine that is very suitable for vertical take-off and landing aircraft.
Due to the sacrifice of high-speed performance, the F35 is a fifth-generation aircraft with relatively poor high-speed performance, and the fuel consumption is not as good as that of a normal carrier-based aircraft.
The F35 is designed to have a maximum speed of Mach 1.6, and if you look at this speed alone, it is even the same as the Thunder, lower than the single-engine F16 and much lower than the F15.
So of course, you can't just look at the speed, the technical level of the F35 is actually the same level as the J-20.
The main problem with the F35 is with the B and C types, which are shipborne models and are commonly known as "saltwater chickens".
When the speed of Type B and Type C exceeds Mach 1.3, the stealth coating will bubble, which will affect the stealth effect.
Probably because the issue of cost is not properly discussed, neither the US Department of Defense nor the producer Lockheed Martin want to solve this problem for the time being.
They asked the user to limit the flight time at Mach 1.2 and only allow 50 seconds of continuous flight at Mach 1.3.
After 50 seconds, it must be lowered to subsonic flight at normal thrust, and wait for 3 minutes before entering supersonic flight again.
The Mach 1.3 supersonic speed of the F35B and C models is equivalent to a skill with a cooldown of 3 minutes and a duration of 50 seconds.
It's also simple to simply solve this problem, just change your own stealth coating.
Of course, Mu Feng has to do more than this, the most critical transformation is to replace his radar avionics system, so that she can fully integrate into his combat system.
Then, the mature variable cycle technology is applied to reduce power consumption and improve battery life.
Finally, according to the characteristics of the world of the ship, the experience accumulated in the design of the J-20 series will be applied to carry out comprehensive targeted adjustments and repairs.
For example, the cockpit and related equipment can be removed without the need for a pilot.
This reduces the empty weight, increases the built-in fuel capacity, and reduces flight resistance without the protruding cockpit.
The ship's weapons and equipment, unless they are attacked, or there are problems with the design, the failure rate itself is very low.
Therefore, the maintainability can be reduced to a minimum, the overall structure of the aircraft can be formed at one time, and the weapons and equipment compartments can be modularized.
Internal failures simply abandon repairs and rebuild a new aircraft, while external failures quickly replace modules.
This can reduce the empty weight again, improve the endurance, reduce the maintenance time,
After the redesign of the F35B, the maximum speed has been increased to 1.8 times the speed of sound, and the maximum range has been increased to 3600 kilometers.
The fully revamped F35B was renamed J-36 by Mufeng, and after generating new drawings, it was put into manufacturing equipment for production.
After getting the F35, Mu Feng continued to analyze the remaining 200 high-grade loot.
After pressing the button, a short progress bar slowly runs to the end:
"Acquired: H-20 strategic bomber."
Looking at this result, Mu Feng subconsciously opened his mouth wide, he didn't care if he didn't get B2 just now, but now he has a bomb 20 directly.
However, the problem is that it now seems that it itself no longer has an enemy who needs to use such strategic weapons.
It's like playing a game and defeating the final boss to get the strongest equipment.
With the strongest preparation but no enemy can challenge, what can this weapon be used for?
With some excitement and some complicated feelings, Mu Feng clicked on the details of the H-20 and looked at it carefully for a while.
The H-20 is a stealth bomber, and the overall appearance basically belongs to the category of flying wing structure, but it has obvious differences from the B2.
Her maximum take-off weight is 156 tons, the maximum bomb load is 32 tons, the maximum fuel is 96 tons, and the maximum range is 12960 km.
The tailless flying wing structure is the appearance of omnidirectional wideband stealth, which is a higher level of stealth than that of stealth fighters.
So even though the H-20 is four times heavier than the J-20, the stealth effect is actually stronger than the J-20, but the maneuverability and high-speed performance will not work.
Of course, the requirements for maneuverability and high-speed performance of stealth bombers are relatively limited, or it is very difficult to achieve, so it is better to give up directly.
