Chapter 634 Why should your next missile be just a missile?

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

After all, the latter himself and 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 them into such a big thing, right?"

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

Although air-to-air missiles are no better than airplanes, they don't actually contain much valuable information from their appearance.

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

So much so that I couldn't even answer the question right away.

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

He had experienced this state before, a few years ago when he first learned that Su-27 technology would be introduced and a production line established in China.

For an engineer, especially one who could only do his work in a shell in the past, it feels very transparent to have a platform with such huge potential in front of him for him to unleash.

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

Although the Aerospace Technology Research Institute has produced many models here, they are all small and small, such as the Hongqi 61 or the Thunderbolt 11, and even individual ammunition such as the Hongying 5.

Although logically speaking, size does not completely represent the level of technology, but if you really have a choice...

Men, who doesn’t like big ones...

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

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

"Although there is no way to take it apart to take a closer look at the internal structure, I speculate that the volume filling rate of its seeker and warhead is not very high, and there is enough space to accommodate more complex electronic equipment. The air-to-air anti-radiation missile mentioned in it.”

Having said this, he took two steps forward again and gently patted the part of the missile body near the nose cone:

"The warhead of tactical missiles is basically at this position (rather than the head). Under normal circumstances, because air targets are generally relatively fragile, anti-air missiles tend to use a large number of prefabricated fragments or ring-shaped continuous rods as warheads to optimize The damage area is not the damage capability, and the proportion of the charge to the total weight of the warhead is very low.”

"If the shape of the warhead is slightly adjusted and a certain degree of range reduction is accepted, with the missile's maximum speed close to 5 times the speed of sound, I don't even think there will be any problems if it is used directly against the ground."

"only……"

Guo Liqiang, who was full of excitement and talking non-stop just now, his expression froze:

"It's just that for this kind of air-to-air missile with a range of 200 kilometers or more, the process from launch to hit may last 3 minutes or more. Even if there is a terminal active seeker, it must continue during the flight. Guidance correction, otherwise if the missile flies past with only inertial guidance, the target will have gone to nowhere."

"I remember that the R33's paper range is almost 300 kilometers. Of course, this is the ultimate data when the carrier aircraft and the target fly head-to-head. But even if it is discounted in actual combat, it has to be about 150 kilometers, and considering the launch The lock must be completed beforehand, so the tracking distance of the radar to the target cannot be less than 250 kilometers."

"This launch condition... can our carrier aircraft meet it now?"

If fighter planes are the heroes charging into battle, then missiles are the weapons in the hands of the heroes.

The two levels must complement each other.

Even a brave man like Lu Bu Dianwei would not be able to exert much fighting power without someone taking advantage of him, and he would be captured or outnumbered in the end.

On the other hand, even if Xing Daorong is equipped with Fang Tian Hua Ji and Red Rabbit, there is a high probability that he will be overthrown by Zhao Zilong with one shot.

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

He Ming thought briefly and then replied:

"However, if we want to talk about stable tracking... I'm afraid the distance needs to be much closer."

For radars, especially mechanical scanning radars, the search distance cannot be increased indefinitely by simply increasing the power or the RCS of the target is large enough. It also involves the influence of many factors such as the antenna form and the radar back-end data processing level.

Guo Liqiang knows more about this than He Ming:

"If this is the case, it would be best to have a native airborne phased array radar, like the MiG-31, to protect target data in the middle of the range."

However, this is completely confusing He Ming.

The MiG-31 is essentially a high-altitude, high-speed missile launcher unique to the Homeland Defense Force. It is a dumpling specially made for the R33 missile and the N007S radar.

For China, even if the technical aspect is not taken into consideration, from the perspective of military construction route alone, such a thing will not be developed.

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

"Gong Guo, I'm just responsible for the production of aircraft. I don't know much about the radar project, but at least, there should be no phased array radar that can be installed on fighter jets in a short time. Otherwise, we should have started long ago. Let’s build the relevant verification machine.”

"I think that instead of thinking about so many things that neither of us can decide, we should first build missiles with sufficient performance and mount them on existing aircraft models for testing. As for radars... I think there will be some. "

Of course Guo Liqiang also understands this truth, but as a missile designer, if he cannot bring out the full performance of the weapon, he will always feel regretful that the magic weapon made by a famous craftsman will be buried.

"That's all we have to do for the time being."

He sighed softly, and his slightly red-hot brain gradually returned to calmness:

"As far as the bomb itself is concerned, the main difficulty for us is the propellant. Even if we get a full set of technical information from Lao Maozi, it will take some time to organize the production. The remaining problems are not big."

"Whether it's active radar, passive anti-radiation, radar guidance to the ground, or directly changing to TV guidance or laser guidance, as you just said, the space inside the radome is too big, so these are not difficult."

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

Originally, Guo Liqiang just took stock and said that he would definitely not let down He Ming's kindness, which was a reassurance to 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, then nodded:

"Yeah, you don't know?"

He Ming looked confused:

"Do not know what is this?"

Guo Liqiang straightened his half-white hair:

"Well...Mr. Chang, and another researcher from the Institute of Computing of the Academy of Sciences, are considered pioneers in this field. Although they may not have continued to work in this area after publishing an article, domestic and foreign Chinese researchers are very encouraged by them and have invested a lot of energy in this direction in the past two years, so... they are so ahead."

He Ming took a deep breath.

He was engaged in machinery manufacturing by profession, and he had indeed never heard of these things.

But then I thought about it, if it was Mr. Chang...

It seems reasonable.

So I accepted this setting.

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

"Of course, our research capabilities are limited, and it is impossible to open so many stalls at the same time, so we should focus on the basic model of the active and passive composite seeker as the focus of research and development."

"In addition, if you want to carry out anti-radiation missions, whether it is ground radar, early warning aircraft or other aircraft flying radars, missiles with passive anti-radiation capabilities alone will not be effective. It is best to cooperate with electronic warfare aircraft with relevant capabilities. .”

"I know that Haofei has used the JH-7 platform to develop an electronic warfare model before. When this missile is tested, it would be best for He Gong to make a connection and borrow one for testing."

"no problem."

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. President Chang mentioned it before when he came to inspect our factory..."

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

Guo Liqiang lowered his head and thought for a moment:

"In short, we can discuss this later. Anyway, as long as there is a reliable electronic warfare platform, the basic functions of this missile can be guaranteed. The effective range is limited to..."

At this point, his voice stopped abruptly.

He Ming turned his head curiously and saw Guo Liqiang staring at the three missiles in front of him, wondering what he was thinking.

"I suddenly had a bold idea..."

After a long while, the latter spoke again:

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

"what?"

He Ming was a little confused by this sentence.

"This matter is a bit complicated."

Guo Liqiang shook his head, turned around and looked at He Ming:

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