Chapter 662: Apollo comparable to the sixth-generation aircraft
Another wind tunnel test on the side of the fifth-generation aircraft wind tunnel test is a new fighter with a completely different fuselage structure and layout from the fifth-generation Black Hawk and Intruder.
This fighter is the real top fifth-generation aircraft - Apollo opened at the base after the Red Guard Corps used as an operational laboratory to submit the mature technology of the fifth-generation Black Hawk and Intruder.
The Apollo fighter is the original top-of-the-line fighter model of the base, and from the time of its birth as the first combat aircraft, it aimed at the world's top fifth-generation and a half-generation fighter standards.
According to the distinction of the Red Guard Corps, the simplest reason is that it can crush the ordinary fifth-generation aircraft, but there is a gap between the sixth-generation Apollo and the sixth-generation aircraft, which is a five-and-a-half-generation fighter.
The Apollo fighter is a very advanced fighter, and even if it is placed in a modern country, it can almost be called a sixth-generation aircraft.
In the full-performance simulated air combat of the Red Guard Corps, fighter divisions of the same level operate three fifth-generation aircraft in simulated air combat.
A single Apollo fighter is capable of easily destroying at least thirty fifth-generation Black Hawk fighters head-on, and is capable of destroying forty-five fifth-generation Intruder fighters.
And the best record of the fifth-generation Black Hawk fighter group against Apollo fighters was when thirty Black Hawk fighters were used at the same time to besiege one Apollo fighter, and only one Apollo fighter was destroyed at the expense of twenty-five.
You must know that every outstanding fighter division of the Red Guard Corps is a veritable ace in the air, whether it is air combat experience or the skills of operating fighter jets, each of them is an outstanding existence among the elite.
The fact that such a gap in combat performance can be played is not because of the gap in air combat literacy between them, but because of the huge gap in the performance of the fighters themselves.
The fifth-generation Black Hawk is a fifth-generation aircraft, although it is only an ordinary fifth-generation fighter, but the advanced electronic equipment, radar and human-machine combination sensors, are the top configuration of the base.
After the radar of the Apollo fighter spotted the Black Hawk fighter, the radar on the Black Hawk fighter also captured the location of the Apollo fighter.
In terms of radar performance and stealth confrontation, the Black Hawk fighter is actually not weak.
But the Black Hawk fighter has one thing that is relatively weak, that is, it cannot achieve full-spectrum stealth capabilities, but Apollo is a full-spectrum stealth fighter.
During the time when Apollo switched the angle of air maneuver several times, it would often disappear from the radar of the Black Hawk fighters.
But this is not the most fatal, the most fatal gap is the difference in the level of air mobility of the two sides.
The Black Hawk fighter adopts a conventional aerodynamic layout, and the traditional fuselage wing tail is still very clear.
But the Apollo fighter is a fighter with a design and the wings and tail of the fuselage have disappeared.
The shape of the Apollo fighter is flat, smooth and smooth, and through the full wing-body fusion and large lift-to-drag ratio design, the stealth and maneuverability of the aircraft at various altitudes and attitudes have been well taken into account.
Because of the use of an unconventional aerodynamic layout, advanced vector thrusters, an advanced intelligent flight control system is used.
It enables Apollo fighters to make flexible maneuvers in the state of supersonic cruise, and has the fastest response ability to incoming air threats.
At supersonic speeds, Apollo is capable of making all sorts of unconventional maneuvers, with conventional characteristics such as climbing, circling, rolling, and accelerating in a straight line.
There is an independent anti-pressure system in the cockpit, which can ensure that the pilot maintains a stable physical condition under the high-intensity maneuver of supersonic flight, that is to say, even if it is a maneuver at supersonic speed, the pilot will not have too much overload pressure.
Although the fifth-generation Black Hawk and the fifth-generation Intruder also have advanced intelligent auxiliary control systems, the performance gap in the fuselage itself is difficult to make up for with technology, not to mention that the technical performance of the Apollo fighter is even better.
The Apollo is the world's top fighter that has been endowed with extremely high strategic strike value, and it has a variety of functions such as air defense and anti-missile capabilities, the ability to implement direct aviation support, and the interception of air targets, as well as the ability to fully complete electronic warfare missions and conduct reconnaissance, with an air strike radius of more than 600 kilometers.
The ultra-long-range strike capability enables Apollo combat to easily detect the enemy's early warning aircraft, and launch a devastating strike on the enemy's core early warning aircraft at a distance far beyond the warning range of the enemy aircraft.
The sensors of the fuselage of the enemy aircraft can easily destroy the fuselage of the enemy aircraft in the battle, and also have a certain blinding strike effect on local pilots.
It can calmly deal with enemy operations with airborne electronic attack capabilities, advanced integrated air defense systems, passive detection equipment, integrated self-defense equipment, directed energy weapons and network electromagnetic attack capabilities.
Having so many excellent performance requirements is also the fundamental reason why the Apollo fighter crushed the fifth generation Black Hawk and the Intruder, so in terms of technical and tactical requirements, the two are fundamentally different.
In terms of sustained combat capability and bomb load, the Apollo fighter is also not comparable to the traditional fifth-generation aircraft.
Therefore, the Apollo is a fairly large fighter, and its fuselage size is almost the size of three of the fifth generation of Black Hawks.
The Apollo fuselage weighs 30 tons of fuel with the base's most advanced materials, has a built-in fuel tank that can carry 15 tons of fuel, and has six stealth magazines.
Two of the six built-in magazines are large ones, each of which can carry eight air-to-air missiles, or four ultra-long-range air-to-air missiles to strike enemy AWACS aircraft.
If it is an air defense operation, the number of medium- and short-range air-to-air missiles carried by Apollo can reach 32, and the defense radius of 1,500 meters will have more than two hours of air supremacy.
The ceiling can reach 50,000 meters, and at an altitude of 15,000 kilometers, it can reach a cruising speed of Mach 3.
It can be said that the invincible Apollo fighter is only a primary version of the Apollo fighter model, because the real Apollo fighter is a veritable air and space fighter with a nuclear fusion power system, which can easily travel back and forth between the earth and space, and is equipped with powerful laser weapons, which can easily destroy any air combat opponent and any missile weapons and satellites.
It's just that at the moment the Red Guard Corps still has a long way to go before the technology of a real Apollo fighter.
The performance of the current Apollo fighter alone is enough to give the Red Guard Corps the ability to seize air supremacy in a high-intensity combat environment when dealing with the enemy in the future.
