Chapter 633: Your Next Missile, Why Just a Missile......

Guo Liqiang's reaction was obviously not what He Ming next to him expected.

After all, the latter himself, as well as Chang Haonan, behaved similarly when they saw this thing for the first time.

"How about it, although there are many functions I told you in the official letter, it should be a lot more difficult to integrate into such a big thing, right?"

At this time, Guo Liqiang was still immersed in joy mixed with excitement, and in just a few words, he had already walked around the missile rack several times.

Although air-to-air missiles are not as good as airplanes, they don't really have much valuable information from the outside.

But it didn't delay him from simply being happy.

So much so that I couldn't even answer the question I just asked in the first place.

He Ming looked at Guo Liqiang, who was like a child who got a toy he was interested in, but he didn't rush to urge.

He has experienced this state before, that is, a few years ago, when he first learned that he was going to introduce the technology of the Su-27 and build a production line in China.

For an engineer, especially one who used to be able to work as a dojo in a snail shell, it really feels very transparent to have a platform with so much potential in front of him and let him play at his disposal.

In particular, before the Su-27, the aviation industry already had several models of J-7 and J-8 as a transition.

Although the Academy of Aerospace Technology has also engaged in many models here, they are all small fights like Hongqi 61 or Thunderbolt 11, and there are even individual ammunition such as Hongying 5.

Although logically the size is not exactly indicative of the level of skill, if there is a choice......

Who doesn't love a big man......

After Guo Liqiang knocked and beat next to the missile for a while, he patted the oil stains and dust left on his hands again, and returned to He Ming:

"He Gong, I just took a general look, and it does have a lot of potential."

"Although there is no way to take it apart and take a closer look at the internal structure, I speculate that the volume filling rate of the seeker and warhead is not very high, and there is plenty of room for more complex electronic equipment to be used for the air-to-air anti-radiation missiles you mentioned in the previous letter."

Speaking of this, he took two steps forward again and patted lightly on the part of the missile's body near the head cone:

"The warhead of tactical missiles is basically in this position (not the head), and in general, because the air target is generally fragile, the anti-aircraft missile will tend to use a large number of prefabricated fragments or annular continuous rods as the warhead, optimizing the damage area rather than the damage capability, and the charge accounts for a very low proportion of the total weight of the warhead."

"If you adjust the shape of the warhead a little, and you can accept a certain degree of range reduction, at the maximum speed of this missile close to 5 times the speed of sound, I don't even think there will be any problems with taking it directly to the ground."

"Just ......"

Guo Liqiang, who was still full of excitement just now, looked stunned:

"It's just that for this kind of air-to-air bomb with a range of 200 kilometers, the process from launch to hit may last 3 minutes or even longer, even if there is an active seeker at the end, it must continue to guide and correct during the flight, otherwise let the missile fly over only by inertial guidance, and the target will already run to nowhere."

"I remember that the range of the R33 on paper is almost 300 kilometers, of course, this is the limit data when the carrier aircraft and the target fly head-to-head, but even if it is discounted in actual combat, it must be about 150 kilometers, and considering that the lock must be completed before launch, the tracking distance of the radar to the target cannot be less than 250 kilometers."

"This launch condition ...... Can our carrier aircraft reach it now? ”

If the fighter is a fierce general who charges into battle, then the missile is a weapon in the hands of a fierce general.

The levels of the two must complement each other.

Even if he is as brave as Lu Budianwei, if he doesn't have a guy in his hand, he can't exert much combat effectiveness, and in the end he is captured or outnumbered.

On the other hand, even if Xing Daorong is paired with the Heavenly Painting Halberd and the Red Rabbit, there is a high probability that he will be overturned by Zhao Zilong with one shot.

"In the course of previous test flights, the 1493 radar had captured a target the size of a Boeing 737 240 km away."

He Ming thought for a moment and replied:

"But if you talk about stable tracking...... I'm afraid it's going to have to be a lot closer. ”

Radar, especially mechanical scanning radar, is not only an increase in power or a large enough RCS of the target to increase the search range without limits, but also involves the influence of many factors such as the form of the antenna and the level of data processing at the back end of the radar.

Regarding this point, Guo Liqiang knows more than He Ming:

"If that's the case, it's better to have a native airborne phased array radar, like the MiG-31, to support target data in the middle of the range."

However, this is completely confusing.

The MiG-31 is essentially a high-altitude and high-speed missile launcher with the characteristics of the Territorial Defense Force, and it belongs to the dumplings specially wrapped for the two dishes of vinegar of the R33 missile and the N007S radar.

As far as Huaxia is concerned, even if the technical level is not considered, from the perspective of the army construction line alone, it will not engage in such a thing.

So, he waved his hand and decided to give up dwelling on this issue for the time being:

"Guo Gong, I'm just responsible for the production of aircraft, and I don't know much about the radar project, but at least, there should be no phased array radar that can be installed on a fighter in a short period of time, otherwise we should have started to work on a related verification machine a long time ago."

"I think that instead of thinking about so many things that we can't decide on either side, it is better to build a missile with sufficient performance and put it on the existing model of aircraft for testing, as for the radar...... I think there will be. ”

Of course, Guo Liqiang also understands this truth, but as a missile designer, if he can't give full play to the full performance of the weapon, there will always be a regret that the magic weapon made by a famous craftsman will be buried.

"That's all for now."

He sighed softly, and his brain, which had just been a little red and warm, gradually regained its composure:

"As far as this bomb itself is concerned, the difficulty for us is mainly in the propellant, even if we get a full set of technical information from Lao Maozi, it will take some time to organize production, and the remaining part is not a big problem."

"Whether it's active radar, passive radiation, radar guidance to the ground, or directly changed to TV guidance or laser guidance, as you just said, the space inside the radome is too big, and there is nothing difficult about this."

"In terms of target signal processing and control rate, long-range missiles and medium- and short-range missiles may not be the same, but our country is also the world's top in this aspect, and it is not a problem......

Originally, Guo Liqiang just took stock and said that he would definitely not live up to He Ming's kindness, which was a reassuring pill for the other party.

But halfway through the inventory, the latter was shocked:

"Top in the world?"

Guo Liqiang, who was suddenly interrupted, was stunned for a moment, and then nodded:

"yes, you don't know?"

He Ming looked confused:

"Don't know what?"

Guo Liqiang straightened his half-white hair:

"Hmm...... Mr. Chang, and another researcher from the Institute of Computing of the Academy of Sciences, who is considered a pioneer in this field, although he should not have continued to work in this area after publishing an article, but Chinese researchers at home and abroad have been greatly encouraged by them, and they have invested a lot of energy in this direction in the past two years, so ...... That's it. ”

He Ming took a deep breath.

One of his professions is engaged in mechanical manufacturing, and he has indeed never heard of these things.

But on second thought, if it's Mr. Chang......

It seems reasonable, too.

So I accepted the premise.

Seeing that the expression on He Ming's face returned to normal, Guo Liqiang continued:

"Of course, the research capacity on our side is also limited, and it is impossible to spread out so many stalls at the same time, so we should first focus on the basic model of the active and passive composite seeker."

"In addition, if you want to carry out anti-radiation missions, whether it is hitting ground radars, early warning planes, or other aircraft with radars, it is not enough to rely on missiles with passive anti-radiation capabilities alone, and it is best to cooperate with electronic warfare aircraft with relevant capabilities."

"I know that Hofei has used the J-7 platform to make an electronic warfare model before, and when this missile is tested, it is best for He Gong to match up and borrow one to test."

"That's fine."

He Ming nodded immediately:

"Moreover, if we wait a few more years, we may also have an electronic warfare model of the J-11 platform on our side, which Chang always mentioned when he came to our factory to inspect it before......"

"It shouldn't take a few years......"

Guo Liqiang lowered his head and thought for a moment:

"In short, this can be talked about at that time, anyway, as long as there is a reliable electronic warfare platform, then the basic function of this missile can be guaranteed, and it is nothing more than that the effective range is limited by ......"

At this point, his voice stopped abruptly.

He Ming turned his head with some curiosity, but saw that Guo Liqiang was staring at the three missiles in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.

"I suddenly had a bold idea......"

After a while, the latter spoke again:

"A missile as big as this can be more than just a missile......

"Huh?"

He Ming was a little confused by this sentence.

"It's a bit complicated to say."

Guo Liqiang shook his head and turned to look at He Ming:

"I hope to meet with Mr. Chang as soon as possible, I wonder if you can contact him?"
