Volume 3 East China Sea Shocking Waves Chapter 66 Ten years of sharpening a sword
At the end of the year, Colonel Jia Baoguo and Colonel Lin Jue joined the Air Force Testing Department]
Although the two did not participate in the Fourth India-Pakistan War and had no results, they were not only colonel officers, but also had high prestige among the pilots of the Air Force Test Unit, because before joining the test unit, they were not pilots of the combat unit, but pilots of the test unit.
After the two arrived, the days of the HNA pilot who "dominated" the test troops began to be sad.
As HNA's top flight crew, Liang Guoxiang and Zhu Ronghui took on heavy responsibilities and conducted confrontation exercises with Jia Baoguo and Lin Jue many times. Although the purpose of the exercise was not to determine the male and female among HNA and Air Force pilots, who was the best on both sides has long become a hot topic for the test troops. Over time, the pilots of HNA Testing Force called the two Air Force pilots "Jia Baoyu" and "Lin Daiyu".
Jia Baoguo and Lin Jue, who are 40 years old, joined the test force, are not to win back face for the Air Force.
Their mission is to participate in the final test flight of the J-14 fighter, complete the flight envelope test, and provide flight data for tactical performance tests before mass production and service.
Test flights of new fighter jets are both glorious and dangerous
In the United States, one out of every three test flight pilots died in a plane crash. The Republic Air Force was similar. The proportion of test flight pilots who died in the business during their service was more than 30% of them.
Being able to become a test flight pilot requires not only excellent skills, but also a calm mind and extraordinary courage.
If the pilots who test flight risked their lives to find out the flight performance of various fighter jets and drew the flight envelope, not only would more pilots encounter danger in the air, but the combat effectiveness of the aviation force would also be greatly affected.
Whether in the Air Force or HNA, test flight pilots are highly respected
In addition to having the status of a test flight pilot, Jia Baoguo and Lin Jue also served as "Blue Army Pilots" in the Air Force's "Imaginary Enemy Force". Most of the pilots in the Air Force's test flight have dealt with them and know their ability.
The engineer modified the ground problems found by the test flight pilot. When preparing for mass production, Jia Baoguo and Lin Jue used the J-14-shaped aircraft to conduct tactical performance tests as pilots of the Air Force Test Force. From this time, they conducted a confrontation exercise with the pilots of the HNA Test Force.
Liang Guoxiang and Zhu Ronghui only won 3 times in the 11-time battles. They were still the losers.
As veteran pilots, Jia Baoguo and Lin Jue did not look at the HNA pilots with hostile eyes when writing the confrontation drill report. According to their statement, if it were not for the performance of the J-13b, the performance was much worse than that of the J-14 prototype, Liang Guoxiang and Zhu Ronghui would not only not lose, but also win with a big score.
The report mainly mentions the performance characteristics of J-14 and the areas that need improvement.
As the fourth-generation heavy-duty air combat fighter J-14, the J-14, was in the design stage, the Air Force proposed five major performance requirements in sequence: stealth performance electronics and information network warfare capabilities supersonic cruise capabilities supermotorization and logistics support performance
It seems that the performance indicators of j-14 are very similar to those of f-22a, but in fact they are very different.
Before the stealth coating technology has made substantial breakthroughs, j-14 attached more importance to "active stealth ability". The designer used the active electromagnetic interference device first used on the "Flying Eagle" all-electric armed helicopter. In order to make the active stealth time reach the 15 minutes required for the penetration, j-14 prepared 150 grams of "Longxiang Battery". In order not to make the active interference device affect the onboard radar, tactical data link and other electromagnetic equipment, the designer installed a time agile switch controlled by an airborne fire control computer on the active electromagnetic interference device.
After the prototype test, it was proved that the stealth ability of j-14 when using the active interference device exceeds 22|=| needs to be improved.
The capabilities of electronic and information network stations are mainly reflected in the tactical information network formed by tactical data links on the tactical data link. All combat forces equipped with relevant equipment can obtain tactical information mastered by other combat forces in a timely manner, so as to achieve the purpose of sharing battlefield information among various combat forces, and more effectively exert the combat power of each combat force. With the tactical information network as a platform, the previous independent combat force evolved into a tactical strike platform on the tactical information network, and make full use of various strike forces in accordance with the principle of "whoever fights recently, whoever fights conveniently."
The supersonic cruise capacity is mainly achieved through two ways. First, the military thrust reaches 127 kiloni, the maximum thrust reaches 165 ni, and the thrust-weight ratio of 95 "Taihang 14" engine; second, the composite material, which accounts for 526% of the mass of the whole machine and the light alloy of 28, and the "Taihang 14" turbofan engine jointly developed by Russia (the code name is al-51 of Russia) solved the problem of the Republic's fighter jets without an autonomous "heart". The thrust-weight ratio of 95, the service life of 1500, and the 341 + is basically the same as the f-229 engine, which uses a large number of composite materials and light alloys, making the j-14 empty weight only 17,850 grams, although it is greater than the f-22: the thrust is j-145,500 meters high, and the cruising flight speed reaches 135 Hz without opening the afterburner chamber.
In the method to achieve super maneuverability, in addition to the large-thrust engine and the use of composite materials and light alloys, it mainly uses excellent pneumatic appearance and ternary vector nozzles. Because it uses active electromagnetic interference devices, designers do not need to over-think stealth requirements when designing pneumatic appearances, so they can pay more attention to maneuverability requirements f-22u|Binary vector nozzles and larger
In the case of heavy-weight ratio, the maneuverability is only slightly improved than that of the third-generation fighter.)|) The maneuverability of the j-14 is only slightly improved compared to the third-generation fighter. When fighting with the j-13b, which belongs to the "third and a half generations", the j-14-shaped aircraft that does not fully meet the design indicators can have an absolute advantage.
Logistics support performance is a decisive relationship with the combat attendance rate of fighter aircraft and the life of the full-life usage fee. In order to improve logistics support performance, j-14 adopts many methods, such as using standard interfaces to provide a basis for future upgrade of onboard equipment; disposable thermoplastic wing skins to reduce the workload of battlefield maintenance; the hatch of the main equipment cabin that requires battlefield maintenance is facing downward, reducing the working intensity of ground crew members; the segmented manufacturing process is used to make overhaul and combat damage repair easier; the use of standard weapon interfaces to reduce the difficulty of loading weapons, etc.
After ten years of hard work, the Republic has built the world's best fighter aircraft in fifteen years
From project establishment to completion of finalized test flights, tens of thousands of designers and engineers participated in the design of j-14 and related equipment. The development and development work were only developed. The Republic Air Force invested 450 yuan in advance. Although this development fund is only a fraction of the amount, for the Republic Air Force, the unlucky Republic Air Force, it is willing to invest the development fund equivalent to the 2 allowances of the entire army, which shows the Air Force's expectations for j-14.
As the first pilot to drive the J-14, Jia Baoguo and Lin Jue trusted the advanced performance of the J-14 very much.
After receiving the order, the two flew 214-shaped aircraft from the air base in the Qaidam Basin, and headed to the air base more than 50 kilometers south of Shangrao, Jiangxi Province with a large transport aircraft carrying logistics support equipment and ground staff of the test force.
In just a few hours, the j-14 prototype, which was still in the tactical testing stage, completed its preparations for the battle.
After leaving the airport, the 214-shaped aircraft immediately lowered its flight altitude to 150. Jia Baoguo and Lin Jue did not use autopilot, but instead drove manually according to the information provided by the landform surveying and mapping radar. Whether it was completing combat tasks or completing tactical tests, the 214-shaped aircraft could not have any mistakes.
At 20:35, the 214-shaped machine entered the ocean
After receiving the battlefield message from the early warning aircraft, Jia Baoguo, who was flying the long aircraft, reduced the flight altitude to 50 meters and increased the speed to Mach 11. Every minute, the distance between the 214-shaped aircraft and the target was shortened by 224 meters.
At 20:55, the early warning aircraft sent the latest battlefield information
"2, charge the active electromagnetic interference device"
"Understand, connect the active electromagnetic interference device"
Press the charging switch of the active electromagnetic interference device, Jia Baoguo glanced at the three sides of the 16-down view of the data on the flat panel display.
"The active electromagnetic interference device has been charged, 2 waiting for instructions"
"Activate the active electromagnetic interference device" Jia Baoguo first pressed the start switch, then adjusted the communication frequency, and "checked the airborne electronic equipment and missiles"
"The active electromagnetic interference device is started, the onboard electronic equipment is normal, and the missile is normal"
At this time, 20:57
“Height 5500, speed 1450, heading 75
"Understand, height 5500, speed c, heading 75
As the fighter plane climbed higher, Jia Baoguo's mood also rose and fell a little
On the left screen showing flight information, after the orientation coordinates of the fighter's aircraft matched the coordinates of the attack entry point provided by the early warning aircraft, Jia Baoguo connected the radar power supply and said: "Start the fire control radar, and check the airborne missile again when the air search tracking mode."
"Radar starts, missile is normal"
In less than 5 minutes, two large aerial targets with obvious characteristics appeared on the firepower control screen in the center.
"2 reports, fire control radar intercepts air targets, 2 e-767 early warning aircraft, 24 fighter aircraft"
"The target is clear." Jia Baoguo took a breath and glanced at the weapon status information displayed on the right screen. "As soon as you take action, I will attack target No. 1"
"Understand, turn away, attack target No. 2"
The 2j-14-shaped machine quickly dispersed and rushed towards two e-767 early warning aircraft respectively
Before using radar to lock the target, Jia Baoguo checked the radar alarm aircraft and the missile alarm aircraft, and confirmed that both sets of alarm devices were in working conditions, so he breathed a little relieved.
It turns out that the active electromagnetic interference device can deal with the radar of the early warning aircraft!
At 2105, the J-14-shaped aircraft driven by Jia Baoguo fired 4 "Pili 14 interceptor missiles 70 meters away.
At 2106, the j-14-shaped aircraft driven by Lin Jue fired 4 missiles at another e-767 55 meters away.
2107 points, 214-shaped machine completed the guidance work one after another, and turned back
2108 points, 2e-767 was hit by missiles one after another, and fell into the sea during the explosion disintegration.
Two minutes later, the first batch of J-11b fighters from the Republic Air Force arrived in the combat airspace, and under the guidance of the early warning aircraft, locked the helpless F-15j aircraft group with fire control radar.
The night sky is boiling!
