Chapter 486: Magnetic anomaly detector

Although it is improvised, the Ascendas Aviation Corporation, which has been thinking about anti-submarine equipment in Europe for a long time, still gave a set of the best combination plan.

The core is two parts, one is the integrated detection system at the front of the component, and the other is the magnetic anomaly detector extending from the middle to the rear.

The integrated detection system is a retractable search radar equipped by the French Thomson company based on the French Navy’s Atlantic anti-submarine patrol aircraft. Its technical model is the ANAPS-38 anti-submarine radar on the US S-2 anti-submarine patrol aircraft. Thomson learns from its ingenuity The design and unique features of retractable, transplant it to the Atlantic anti-submarine patrol aircraft.

However, the space for the No. 02 anti-submarine aircraft belly box assembly itself is limited, and the retractable mechanism is somewhat complicated and squeezes space, so Ascendas Aviation Corporation did not inherit its retractable model, but optimized the fairing. , Fixed on the front end of No. 02 anti-submarine aircraft belly box assembly.

The space thus saved is installed with a sophisticated version of the acoustic detector and sonar receiver specially designed by the French company Thomson for unmanned anti-submarine aircraft.

The semi-cylindrical bulge extending from the middle to the rear is a retractable magnetic anomaly detector, provided by British Aerospace, and the technology source also comes from the United States. The magnetics on the S-2 and S-3 anti-submarine aircraft The heterogeneous detector is such a retractable structure.

In the mid-1970s, the Gannet anti-submarine aircraft developed by the United Kingdom wanted to be upgraded. One of the improvements was the addition of a set of retractable magnetic anomaly detectors similar to the S-2 and S-3 anti-submarine aircraft.

Technology patents and samples have already been obtained from the United States, just waiting for the British government to throw money happily.

As a result, the British government at that time was under financial pressure. Not only did it slash the upgrade plan of the Gannet anti-submarine aircraft with a knife, but it was not enough to think about it. It simply slashed the entire Gannet anti-submarine aircraft fleet.

Faced with the desperate behavior of the British government after cutting the leeks and ploughing the roots of the leeks, British Aerospace Corp. can be said to cry without tears. The patents and samples bought at a large price cannot be used and can only be locked in the technical room for ashes.

I thought that this transaction was just going to be planted, but as a result, the actor company came up with an unmanned anti-submarine aircraft. When British Aerospace looked at it, what a good receiver, it lost a layer of gray retractable magnetic anomaly detection. The device was turned over from the technical room, and after careful packaging, it was thrown into the actor company.

However, for British Aerospace's tasteless magnetic anomaly detector, it is a rare good thing for the Ascendas Aviation Corporation behind the actor company.

Because there is no such thing, the boxed components under the belly of the 02 can not be called anti-submarine mission components, at best they can only have anti-submarine nature patrol and reconnaissance components.

The reason is very simple, just because the magnetic anomaly detector is the core detection equipment of anti-submarine aircraft in addition to the acoustic detection system. Even in certain specific environments, the magnetic anomaly detection equipment is more efficient and reliable than the acoustic equipment.

The reason for this is mainly because the submarine can reduce its own acoustic signal by various means, but how difficult is the all-metal shell to hide under the earth's magnetic field, especially when the submarine is traveling, the strong electromagnetic signal generated by magnetic cutting is difficult Be completely covered up.

Based on this principle, the magnetic anomaly detector can accurately find the submarine hiding on the seabed in the vast ocean.

Without this set of equipment and only equipped with an acoustic system, it would not be as efficient. After all, the power of sonar buoys launched by anti-submarine aircraft is not high, and it is also affected by ocean clutter, ocean currents and other natural environments, so the accuracy is not high.

This is also the reason why the Soviet Tu-142 was not equipped with a magnetic anomaly detector, many people called it a long-range HNA patrol aircraft instead of an anti-submarine patrol aircraft. The main reason was that Tu-142 was large in size. Beyond the long range, the anti-submarine effectiveness is actually not high, and it is just one or two layers stronger than ordinary maritime patrol aircraft.

Because of this, if there is no retractable magnetic anomaly detector provided by British Aerospace, the improved An-26 with the 02 component will end up on the technical path, which is the level of Figure 142.

But with the magnetic anomaly detector, even if the interior of the An-26 cabin was so rough due to temporary modification, that even the seats were welded with steel bars and then covered with sponge cushions.

Air-tight equipment and air-conditioning equipment are not even needed. Both are missing. The simplicity is more touching than the clean water room of later generations, which fully reflects the simple but not simple unique character of the fighting nation.

Don't compare it with the comfortable and luxurious Cockpit of the Plateau Eagle C, the second-class Plateau Eagle B is not as good.

But even so, the improved AN-26 with the boxed components under the belly of the No. 02 can still be called an anti-submarine patrol aircraft, because the retractable magnetic anomaly detector can accurately detect 300 meters underwater. The front betting on the sea search radar can search within a radius of 200 kilometers.

Once a suspicious target is found, the ten active and passive sonar buoys on both sides of the module can be released to locate the submarine more accurately.

The Soviet Rao B-79 "Foxtrot" conventional submarine and the American Rao "Shuiyu" Sturgeon-class nuclear submarine were discovered because of the telescopic type in the box assembly under the belly of the No. 02 aircraft. The magnetic anomaly detector, the strong magnetic signal is transmitted back one after another, and the dynamics of the two submarines should not be displayed too clearly.

Only the anti-submarine crew commanded by Zhou Jiwei handed over the Soviet Rao conventional submarine to the 5506 under Chen Fang's command, and he concentrated on dealing with the US Rao nuclear submarine.

As a result, Zhou Jiwei was catching two submarines for himself at once. It was so cool~www.readwn.com~ Song Changzheng's words without insight made all his good moods go away.

"Fly your plane!"

Zhou Jiwei, who had been exposed, knew that he was wrong, and he simply stopped talking to Song Changzheng. He replied painlessly and looked at him with a solemn expression: "Keep your speed fast. It's much more cunning."

Song Changzheng did not continue. After all, he was still on the mission, so he smiled and shook the joystick in front of him, keeping the plane at a steady low speed.

At the same time, I turned on the intercom and prepared to inform the flagship of the Eastern United Fleet about the current mission situation, but at this moment Song Changzheng, who was just about to open his mouth to call, heard a noise in the headset, instantly covering the original clear call.

After a while, several monitors in the cabin flashed wildly like various winds. Zhou Jiwei, who was still judging the position of the submarine, was taken aback and frowned: "It's electronic interference again, is it endless?"
