080 Sky Dragon
That's right, this is the J-20. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info, but it's not a J-20.
This is not a philosophical question that twists his heart, but a deliberate Bai Zhongqi's somewhat wicked, but full of pride.
Even people who are not very familiar with military affairs in country C, as long as they often watch the news, they will definitely not be unfamiliar with the fighter plane in front of them. It symbolizes the most advanced technology of country C's aviation industry, accumulates the crystallized achievements of country C's aviation industry for decades, and the latest fifth-generation stealth fighter can match the future hope of the F-22 air force of country C.
At the recent air show, two J-20s cut through the sky, elegantly showing their charm and strength to the world, attracting attention all over the world.
Although there are still many shortcomings in the aviation industry of country C, such as heart disease that has plagued the air force for decades, the J-20 is still the best embodiment of the unremitting and hard work of country C's aviation personnel.
Air force people like Tang Xinhua are full of expectations for the J-20. But unexpectedly, as soon as they came to the weapons test site in Ruyi City, the Iridium people actually pulled out a fighter plane that was exactly the same as the J-20, and said that this is what we want to help you.
Tang Xinhua's eyes widened, wanting to see what the difference between this Iridium copycat J-20 was from the original and genuine. He is the head of the Air Force Equipment Department, and the information he has is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary military fans. He looked at the copycat J-20 seriously, and soon noticed some differences.
But from the nose and the like, it doesn't seem to see much difference, and even the paint is made of the same silver-gray paint as the small-scale production version of the J-20 of the Air Force of Country C. The more striking difference is that the cockpit canopy of this copycat fighter is actually silver-gray, which contrasts with the fuselage paint, which makes people wonder if the people sitting inside can really see the situation outside.
With Tang Xinhua discovering more differences, although the aerodynamics of this copycat fighter follow the original and genuine, many structures, including the main wing, horizontal tail and canard wing, have been fine-tuned and modified. Of course, the biggest modification is the tail, when the Southwest Design Bureau designed this fighter, the tail part was criticized, although some were also limited by weight, power and other problems to make a compromise, but it was not satisfactory. This Iridium copycat version of the J-20 directly cancels the ventral fin on the tail, and the engine nozzle has also been adjusted, which is not so abrupt.
Lieutenant Colonel Iridium, who was in charge of the introduction, said: "The choice of your country's fighter aircraft as the basis for developing new weapons is not that Iridium wants to tease you, but an affirmation and admiration for country C, which has continued to open up the situation from scratch under difficult conditions. His Majesty, the head of the empire, also has a special affection for this fighter, so he specially developed this fighter based on the J-20 Veyron fighter. We still call it the J-20, but with the suffix EVO added to it, which stands for a fully evolved and upgraded version. The J-20 you see is no longer a fifth-generation fighter on earth, but a genuine aerospace fighter with extraordinary combat effectiveness - Aerospace Weilong. ā
The military personnel of country C have gradually changed from the strange mood of seeing their own things appear in the hands of others, and Tang Xinhua is now looking forward to it, wanting to know what the Iridium people have done to the J-20 and what kind of powerful fighter it has become.
Lieutenant Colonel Iridium continued: "There are not many changes in the appearance of this fighter, we have made some reasonable optimizations for the aerodynamics, especially because of the strengthening of power, we have removed some compromise designs made by our colleagues in the Southwest Design Bureau of your country, of course, the canard wing is not among them." ā
Bai Zhongqi also looked at the current scene through the surveillance screen. In fact, he knew that when the magic was changed to the level of J-20evo, the meaning of the existence of that pair of canard wings was not great. The main significance of the canard wing is that it generates more total lift than the conventional layout when maneuvering, and is better at momentary hovering. The disadvantage is that it will be more difficult to lower the head at high angles of attack, and the aerodynamic focus will shift back in the case of supersonic cruise, and the pitching moment of the aircraft will be unbalanced.
If it is a mainstream Iridium weapon like the Banshee Fighter, the plane will be designed as a mallet, not to mention that the plane will be made into a brick, and the flight performance will be so good that it will explode. The reason is that the Banshee fighter has no aerodynamic layout considerations at all, and the Iridium people directly use the force field to turn the aircraft into a waverider, so no matter whether the aircraft in the waverider body field looks like a brick or a mallet, its aerodynamics are very good, and it can be adjusted according to actual needs.
In fact, the Iridium fighter is mainly used for space operations, and there is no aerodynamic meaning if there is no air in the vacuum, so the design is still prioritized by combat needs.
J-20EVO is different, Bai Zhongqi did not plan to directly raise this fighter to the level of the Banshee fighter, so aerodynamics is still a relatively important part of it. The solution to the moment imbalance problem of the J-20EVO supersonic cruise is also very simple, the canard wings of this fighter are adjustable, not only able to flip up and down, but also to move back and forth, and even to adjust the shape. When cruising at supersonic speeds, it is possible to realize the combination of canard wing and main wing.
As long as it is pneumatic, there are advantages and disadvantages, and there is no universal pneumatic. And Bai Zhongqi never wanted to make the J-20EVO a universal aerodynamic aircraft, and its flight performance is more dependent on its powerful power.
"Different from the mainstream fighter power on the earth now, using fuel turbofan engines, J-20EVO uses mature plasma electric propulsion, intuitively speaking, this fighter does not burn oil, but plugs in the battery."
Lieutenant Colonel Iridium introduced while directing the ground crew, who was also a bionic man, to disassemble the battery cover on the upper part of the fighter and take out two half-human-high batteries, just like removing the battery of a toy airplane.
"This is a highly concentrated battery, equipped with two cells, which is capable of allowing the fighter to cruise at Mach 3 for a week. If you are on an air-space voyage, you can fly back and forth from Ruyi City to Earth. It can achieve a maximum speed of Mach 7, but this will be a relatively large burden on the pilot, so not only do we need to liberate the genetic advantage of the pilots of country C, but also need to wear special air combat armor to resist the load and adjust the body function.
It also has two auxiliary powers in the front, in addition to ordinary taxiing and take-off, this fighter is actually designed to take off and land vertically, so no matter what kind of environment, even if the ground is uneven, this fighter can take off and land. ā
Tang Xinhua felt that his jaw was about to fall to the ground at this time, and looked at this magic copycat aircraft in disbelief, "Not to mention vertical take-off and landing, the maximum speed is Mach 7, and the cruising speed is Mach 3, can it actually fly in the sky for a week?" This performance standard is designed to be too high, even if it can really fly for so long, the pilot can't spend a week in the sky without eating, drinking, or excreting. ā
Lieutenant Colonel Iridium spread his hands and said, "This is how we designed it, and it is your choice how you use it. However, this fighter is equipped with auxiliary artificial intelligence, which means that it can actually carry out combat missions without a pilot. ā
Su Guokai said: "Then this is a manned/drone. ā
"Yes, let me introduce the avionics of this fighter, which can carry artificial intelligence thanks to its powerful main computer, the main computer of the J-20evo is a military standard quantum computer, and the data processing power even exceeds that of the current No. 1 supercomputing Taihu Light on the earth. It can realize intelligent operations, and form a cloud system operation, several fighters can form their own formation, real-time transmission of information and intelligence, and carry out combined operations. It is also a node of Iridium's 'Global Situational Awareness System' built for Country C's weapons platform. The so-called global situational awareness means that there are a large number of effective sensors in any weapon, and the intelligence collected by all weapon platforms can be directly shared with weapon platforms in other systems. On this basis, intelligent command and dispatch can be realized to enhance the effectiveness of strikes. The radar used by the fighter can detect up to 800 kilometers, and because it is limited by the bonus of earth curvature and global situational awareness, this data is actually somewhat redundant. ā
Tang Xinhua pointed to the plane, becoming more and more incredulous, and said: "You tell me that the detection distance of this fighter is even farther than that of the early warning aircraft." ā
Lieutenant Colonel Iridium said naturally: "That's right, in fact, in the history of the development of Iridium's intra-atmospheric weapons, AWACS aircraft are only short-lived weapons, with poor self-defense capabilities and a single purpose, and will soon be replaced by fighters equipped with powerful radars." ā
It seemed that the android lieutenant colonel had indulged in shaking the group of country C soldiers with one fact after another, and he continued: "We have designed electromagnetic stealth and optical stealth functions for most of the frequency bands, which makes it basically undetectable by the enemy. ā
Saying that, he didn't know what equipment was moved, and then the entire fighter disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Wang Peng shouted: "This is the same optical stealth as the fighter you used in the San Francisco incident, it's like a chameleon." ā
Lieutenant Colonel Dr. Bionic didn't answer, in fact, if you look closely, you can still see a little difference, but at a height of several thousand meters, who would notice this difference.
"Okay, the last part is the weapon system. This fighter is equipped with an electromagnetic acceleration cannon, which fires a 23 mm projectile, and can choose a high-explosive projectile, an armor-piercing projectile, an EMP projectile or the cheapest solid projectile, even if it is a solid projectile, considering the huge kinetic energy after electromagnetic acceleration, its destructive power is actually equivalent to your country's 155 mm self-propelled gun. Of course, depending on the actual needs, this electromagnetic acceleration gun can adjust the power to obtain different powers, and deal with targets of different sizes. The reserve ammunition is 580 rounds.
Because the left and right side magazines and the main magazine are retained, the aircraft can also launch first-class missiles. The so-called refinement-class missiles are guided weapons that may be less than one-tenth the size of the missiles on the earth today, but their performance is far superior. The J-20EVO's deep main bomb compartment can carry up to 64 refinement-class general-purpose missiles, which can be used for air combat, ground fighting, and even anti-submarine with target guidance. The Refinement-class missile uses a high-efficiency chemical warhead, and its power is also considerable. In addition to infrared guidance, radar guidance and satellite positioning guidance, visual tracking guidance can also be carried out by auxiliary artificial intelligence.
The final optional weapon pack is a Lightweight Beam weapon, which can be mounted in the side magazine of this aircraft. Beam weapons are not laser weapons, so they can't reach the speed of light, but they're very high. It's also very powerful, making it ideal for attacking fast-moving targets. The side magazines can also be loaded with additional electromagnetic guns, which are more flexible. ā
Tang Xinhua was completely speechless at this time, although everyone present had already expected that what the Iridium people gave them might be very perverted, but they didn't expect that they could be perverted to such a point. What a fighter jet is, it's an arsenal that can fly in the sky for a week without landing!
