Chapter 920: The Era of Precision Guidance
Many years later, facing the high walls and electric fences, these members of the Grass Sleeping Gang will recall the distant afternoon when they were suddenly dug out of the bushes by a team of military dogs.
Even when they were pointed at by a row of black gun muzzles, they still couldn't figure out how the other party found this place.
It was not until several decades later that one of them saw a related description in a memoir:
Very fortunately, or very unfortunately.
They became the first batch of "battle results" of the Chinese Air Force's first laser targeting pod.
It is a pity that this record was not included in the war history.
However, the first officially recognized combat record of the Condor 1 pod was not much earlier than the night of September 2001.
Of course, this is a story.
Especially for those unlucky ones who got caught.
In fact, as of 2001, the security department's attitude towards groups like the Wall-Climbing Party and the Grass-Lying Party was basically to not take the initiative to intervene unless they went too far.
Therefore, this group of people should have been criticized and educated, and at most detained for a few days for public security, and then released.
But as luck would have it, one of them was frightened into confessing and admitting that he had connections with foreign intelligence agencies.
This time, not to mention the other accomplices, even the police officers in charge of routine interrogations were stunned.
Foreign intelligence agencies.
It’s a clear third-class merit.
The nature of things changed immediately.
Although these people met online and had not had much offline contact in the past, it is highly likely that the other people have nothing to do with this.
But some things, if they are not weighed, they will not weigh even a few ounces, but if they are weighed, they will weigh even a thousand pounds.
Although he would not be considered an accomplice, secretly photographing confidential military areas is a crime in itself.
So, they became negative examples and experienced firsthand what it means to "point the camera at the airport and live in a prison cell."
For a time, even the secret photography teams in Shengjing, Rongcheng and other places were in a panic and quickly fell into mutual suspicion.
After all, whether they are climbing walls or lying in the grass, most of them are essentially just curious and don't really want to do anything with the information.
He is not in the same camp as the genuine bribed spies.
Eventually, these small groups almost all disintegrated, and the security department entered a relatively quiet period...
This is naturally a story for later.
As for the laser targeting pod test on September 9, after such an incident, it naturally ended successfully.
Prototype No. 1007 successfully achieved stable tracking and aiming of 3 moving targets of three categories at a shooting range southwest of Haojing.
It’s just that the J-10AS itself has not yet reached the stage of weapon testing, and the few laser-guided bombs currently equipped in the country are all imported, so we are reluctant to throw them casually, so the real bomb dropping test still has to wait for the domestically produced ammunition of the same type.
Fortunately, the "Tian Ge" series of laser-guided bombs produced by Norinco has entered the middle and late stages of the research and development cycle. After the laser coding of the pod is determined, it should be able to enter the live-fire testing stage soon.
When the Aviation Industry Corporation of China was split up, Luoyi Institute 613 was brought under the Aviation Power Corporation of China. In addition, the introduction of the Shenying 1 was a project that Chang Haonan strongly advocated, so the test results were naturally quickly delivered to Chang Haonan.
"Mr. Chang, judging from the test results, our domestic data bus is well compatible with the pod provided by Thales. The fire control system can operate the aiming pod normally and perform full-function operations. The next step is to localize the pod hardware based on the technical information provided by the French side."
Lu Guangshun, chief designer of the Shenying 1 project and deputy director of the 613 Institute, reported to Chang Haonan.
"The introduction schedule of the Damocles pod is related to the upgrade schedule of the M88-3 and M88-4."
Chang Haonan put aside the report that had already turned to the last page:
"Within this year, we should be able to obtain relevant information on the high-precision two-axis gyro-stabilized platform. By then, you can quickly master this most critical technology. This way, at least in terms of the most basic functions of the targeting pod, we will not be controlled by others."
"As for the uncooled thermal imaging equipment, Thales is very tight-lipped. I'm afraid we can only get it after the M88-4 solution comes out. I've asked the 606th Institute to speed up the process as much as possible, but this kind of thing can't be accomplished overnight."
Hearing that Chang Haonan could guarantee that a core technology would be in place within the year, Lu Guangshun immediately breathed a sigh of relief:
"It's okay, Mr. Chang, we..."
At this point, he smiled bitterly:
"Our progress may not be as fast as you think. After all, we have many projects on hand and our strength is somewhat dispersed..."
"I have a rough idea of the size and capabilities of your 613 staff."
Chang Haonan waved his hand to interrupt the other party's explanation, and then continued:
"So, I didn't say I would set a specific development timeline for you."
"However, you should also realize that high-precision gyro stabilization related technologies will be very helpful for other projects you have, especially the development of inertial navigation systems for long-range missiles."
At this point, he reached out his hand and tapped the report in front of him lightly to emphasize:
"So, you can't treat Shenying 1 as a task of the same level as other projects. Instead, you should focus on completing it first, at least give priority to digesting and absorbing the inertial stability control technology."
Although Institute 613 is called the Institute of Electro-Optical Equipment, its business scope is not limited to the research and development of traditional optoelectronic detection or laser television equipment.
In fact, for most of the past, their main work was to develop inertial navigation equipment such as gyroscopes for various missiles and rocket weapons.
After all, no matter how advanced the guidance form is, it must rely on motion sensing stability control to achieve it.
For a long time, this has been the main shortcoming restricting the accuracy of my country's long-range weapons.
Lu Guangshun nodded and wiped the sweat from his forehead:
"Yes...I understand."
Chang Haonan has been in the management position of Aviation Power Group for almost two years.
Although most of the time they are responsible for front-line research and development work, when things get serious, it can still give people a great sense of oppression.
Seeing that the other party was already tense, Chang Haonan did not continue to increase the pressure, but changed his tone to a relaxed one:
"As for the specific production form, you can talk to the aviation department and listen to the opinions of users."
During the turn of the century, the PLA was generally still at a stage of "using whatever was available".
Although this situation has changed a lot due to Chang Haonan's efforts, the change in mindset still takes time. A considerable number of technical personnel still hold a self-centered equipment development approach and are not proactive in solving user pain points.
It also became the main contradiction between Party A and Party B during this period.
As a reborn person, Chang Haonan not only has advantages in the field of technology, but also has more advanced commercial ideas.
But in the past, this brilliance was often overshadowed by his other strengths.
In short, Lu Guangshun next to him had already taken out his notebook from his pocket and was pretending to listen to the lecture attentively.
"If their budget is not enough, you can actually consider producing a targeting pod with only white light, or white light plus a low-light night vision channel. This is more controllable in terms of technology and cost, and can at least be used during the day or at night when the lighting conditions are not so bad."
"And if the air force really has a need for nighttime use and training, they can also consider importing some finished non-cooling thermal imaging equipment from Thales to solve the most pressing problem for the troops, and then replace it with domestic products when conditions permit..."
"..."
In fact, the current training level of the PLA Aviation Corps is indeed difficult to describe.
Not to mention night combat, even night flying is a skill that is not practiced very often for many units.
As for air-to-ground precision-guided munitions…
It's probably similar to the medium-range bullets in 96.
There may not be many crews in the entire army that have ever done this.
Therefore, for Chang Haonan, he should first let the air force as a whole enter the era of precision guidance before considering further matters.
Firing rockets is a fine tradition of our army and can certainly be retained.
But a modern air force cannot rely solely on rockets for air-to-ground combat...
