Super Weapon Swap System - Chapter 3268
AWACS? Hearing the premier’s words, Sandra looked at Atta and looked at each other. At this time, she didn’t know how to answer the premier’s words.
Say no? It costs so much money that you can’t do anything? Say yes? What if something goes wrong?
The white elephant country wants to research everything by itself. Naturally, the same is true in terms of early warning aircraft.
In the 1970s, the white elephant country once rented the tu-126 early warning aircraft of the Xiong country. At that time, it had experienced the benefits of early warning aircraft. In the 1980s, with the continuous breakthrough of early warning aircraft technology in the Han country and the plan to purchase early warning aircraft in the opposite holy country, the early warning aircraft project of the white elephant country was launched.
Of course, this is also because they can’t outsource. The traditional weapons sources of the white elephant country are the bear country and the chicken country. Unfortunately, both countries are not good at building early warning aircraft. The bear country has, but the electronic system is backward. The chicken country doesn’t have the energy to do it at all. Under the situation at home and abroad, the white elephant country can only choose to develop it by itself.
They did not go late. As early as 1985, they began to have this plan. At that time, it was the “air surveillance platform” (ASP) plan promoted by the air force and Navy, code named “Guardian”, and later renamed “Air Guard”.
Officials of the ambitious white elephant country expect that this early warning aircraft can reach the world’s advanced level, have long-range monitoring capability, can conduct air command, all kinds of data are tall, comprehensively suppress the Chinese made early warning aircraft, and guide the MiG-29, phantom-2000 and other fighters of the white elephant air force to confront.
If you want to build an early warning aircraft, you must first have an aircraft platform. The Han country uses its own Yunshi passenger plane as the platform, while the white elephant country also has to use its own. So you search at home and choose the hs-748 transport aircraft.
This is the 20 ton transport aircraft of NiuGuo, and Baixiang has produced 89 through the introduction of license. Compared with the early warning aircraft platforms of other countries in the world, it uses a propeller engine with a power of only 1700 horsepower. Looking at various data, you can know how chicken ribs it is. Can a 20 ton aircraft be used as an early warning aircraft platform?
Yun-10 in the Han Dynasty is a 20 ton plane with a takeoff weight of more than 100 tons. With an empty weight of 13 tons and five tons of fuel, it has only a load of two tons. Can it also be used as an early warning aircraft?
At best, it is the same level as the E-2 eagle eye.
You can compare it with the medium-sized early warning aircraft in the Han Dynasty. You can choose the aircraft platform of yun-8, which is also an aircraft with a takeoff weight of 60 tons. Now, for 20 tons, you have to engage in early warning aircraft. This joke is a little big.
However, no matter what, it was always their choice. They had to fight their Pao with tears. They began to transform the body.
First of all, it is natural to install a rotating radar radome above the back of the aircraft, which is also the normal layout of all early warning aircraft.
After several years of development, the shell of this early warning aircraft was developed. At this time, another feat appeared.
The hs-748 early warning aircraft with a maximum takeoff weight of only about 21 tons actually has a super large radome. Its diameter reaches 7.32 meters and its thickness reaches 1.54 meters.
Originally, a small mini early warning aircraft just carried a big plate. Even if the air police 500, 60 tons of take-off weight refitted with Yun Ba as the platform, the big plate of the early warning aircraft is only eight meters. The courage shown by the white elephant people in this regard is admirable. If the plane doesn’t fall, I’m so sorry about aerodynamics.
Over the past few years, the installation of this radome and flight test have exhausted their efforts. Until last year, the relevant departments of the white elephant country finally processed the airborne early warning radar. The flat slot radar antenna is adopted. According to the design index, the average power is 3.3 kW, the detection distance is 300 km, and 50 different targets are tracked at the same time.
Yes, this is the indicator data after several times of reduction. However, even this indicator is difficult to complete at present. Those radars have just been installed, and various faults continue to appear. Now, they have just begun to eliminate the faults. It is estimated that it will take more than ten years. As for the funds, they have exceeded ten times.
Such a junk is also regarded as a treasure by the prime minister. Now it is a dead order to ask the early warning aircraft to participate. In the face of the prime minister’s request, of course, people can’t say they don’t have this ability. Anyway, after heaven, turn around and come down again. Can we find the target again.
With this in mind, Sandra nodded, “yes, we will use the early warning aircraft.”
“Spread the news,” Rao said. “Let the world know that our white elephant country has strength, which is definitely not slandered in this newspaper.”
Rao was full of anger, and when the order was passed to the personnel responsible for the research and development of the early warning aircraft, they all looked confused at this time.
“What? Mission? Hey, we haven’t even finished the clutter filtering of the pulse Doppler system yet,” said Chery, the chief engineer in charge.
“Yes, in recent flights, we found that the fixing bolts of the radome are loose. We can’t find the reason. We may need to do a static test,” another person said.
With the huge radome and the electronic antenna inside, I always feel that the radome is shaking and shaking. Every time I come down, I will find that the fixing bolts are loose.
So now they don’t dare to let the antenna rotate. They still have a lot of work to do. Now, let them perform the task? This is just a dream.
“This is what the premier meant.” the person who conveyed the order was also very helpless: “after all, we have been under great pressure recently. We must show our technical strength and early warning aircraft. We must participate.”
His voice dropped, “of course, how to attend, you has the final say, the air force will not ask you for any data.”
It’s very clear that you pretend to come down, otherwise how can you explain to the prime minister?
Just, even if it is so, it can’t reassure Cherie, but we have to fly far! So far away, who can guarantee that nothing will happen in the middle?
They all have no bottom in their hearts, but no one will care about them. If you use a very famous word, this is a political task and there must be no room for discussion.
The country has invested 2 billion yuan in this project. Now you have to make a strong momentum. Do you dare to pass the buck?
