Wang Hai drove his fighter jet soaring in the blue sky. For the first time, he felt that a fighter jet could be so "smart".
The brand-new fly-by-wire system can make the J-11 fighter respond sensitively and quickly. The computer provides stable calculations and fixes a series of operations, freeing the pilots so that they no longer need to worry too much about the flight attitude.
Pilots can control the aircraft at all times with tiny controls on the joystick, allowing them to focus more on air combat and keeping themselves in a more advantageous position.
And this fighter jet, which looked similar to a bomber, was so nimble, which greatly exceeded Wang Hai's expectations for this aircraft.
It is so easy to fly that Wang Hai even flew this aircraft into a "falling leaf" state that was previously regarded as a restricted area and was not dared to be attempted by pilots.
In the past, this flight state meant that the pilot had completely lost control of the aircraft, which was a precursor to a crash. But now, it is a dazzling flying display that can be used to show the pilot's super skills and extraordinary courage.
Although the number of this kind of aircraft currently equipped with troops is still too small, it is fully capable of dominating the entire sky.
The ultra-long-range air-to-air missile mounted on it can accurately hit the target dozens of kilometers away, and the opponent will be easily shot down before the opponent can even make evasive actions.
This terrifying missile is radar-guided and has almost no drawbacks except being expensive. Within its normal working range, even the Tang Empire's jet fighter J-7 could not avoid the attack of this missile.
Because it is so sensitive, the overload of the entire missile can exceed 10 G, and the pilot cannot make maneuvers above 9 G, so there is no way to get rid of this missile.
Brand-new fighter jets even have radar warning devices. If an enemy's radar locks on them, the radar warning device will remind their own pilots that they have been locked by radiation.
Of course, this is actually a useless function for the pilots of the Tang Empire, because most of the radars in other countries around the world do not have the locking function.
These countries do not have anti-aircraft missiles at all, so there is no need for radar to lock on to the target. The ordinary detection beam on the radar will not cause the alarm to sound.
Otherwise, the alarm will keep sounding after the plane takes off, because the Tang Empire itself has countless radars scanning the entire combat area.
Another advanced equipment is called the Identification Friend or Foe system. This device can transmit signals to friendly aircraft and tell friendly forces who they are.
This system can avoid accidental damage, but due to the need for confidentiality, it is only equipped with a small amount of equipment for the Air Force and Navy. Even most people in the Army do not know that this system has begun mass production and equipped troops.
In fact, the Tang Empire has begun to equip the J-11 with equipment similar to a glass cockpit: many displays are in the testing stage, and this set of things makes the entire new fighter jet full of a sense of technology.
Unlike many instrument panels in the past, this set of gadgets allows the pilots of the Tang Empire to control the status of the aircraft more intuitively, and understand the situation on the battlefield and the movements of the enemy and our troops.
Although it has not yet achieved complete informatization and intelligence, it already has the prototype of similar functions, allowing the Datang Empire's version of the J-11 fighter to show extremely powerful capabilities right from the moment it was born.
In the test, Wang Hai flew this kind of fighter and achieved a terrifying exchange ratio of 0 to 4 against the J-7 troops.
This data is not the most exaggerated. The most exaggerated thing is that the J-7 unit took off a total of 4 aircraft! They didn't even find the J-11 anywhere, and they were all shot down.
With his superior battlefield experience, Wang Hai did not blindly rely on the long-range attack capabilities of fighter jets. On the contrary, he cut into the center of the enemy aircraft very skillfully and used the J-7 radar's shortcomings of large blind spot and poor downward-looking performance to easily close the distance. Launch combat missiles to kill the opponent.
The J-11 with a tapered nose has very ample radar space, which makes the J-11's radar performance very good. The J-7's aerodynamic layout that limited radar performance disappeared, and was replaced by a huge diameter space that satisfied the engineers.
"The tower is calling the test pilot. The tower is calling the test pilot. Please answer." The voice of the ground command came from the earphone.
"Xinjian 1 received it, the signal is very clear." Wang Hai replied calmly. He now feels that everything about the new airplane is good, even the helmet makes sense.
The new pilot helmet is more scientific than the old pilot helmet. It uses new materials. Although the weight has increased a lot, it also has many functions.
"What's the status of the aircraft?" the ground commander asked routinely.
"Everything is good, I feel it has never been better." Wang Hai replied with a smile.
"It seems you like this new toy very much." The commander in the ground tower grabbed the intercom and laughed. They also like this new aircraft very much. Compared with the old model, it is too powerful and sturdy. .
"Yes! If I can fly it into battle, I believe I can shoot down another 100 enemy planes." Wang Hai replied confidently.
Through the dark mask glass, Wang Hai could see the sea of clouds and the tips of his wings. He could feel the power this plane brought to him, as well as the deep sense of security.
"I think you said too little. If the opponent dares to take off, it will only be a matter of time before you destroy the opponent's air force." The ground commander believed more in Wang Hai's ability and the terrifying combat power of the new aircraft, and gave a more exaggerated answer.
In his opinion, even if the enemy has 1,000 aircraft, as long as we have one J-11 fighter jet, we can defeat them.
If you shoot down several planes at once, the opponent may lose more than half of them within a month. Within two months, the air force of a medium-sized country will be wiped out by a J-11 - the so-called medium-sized country here actually means that it has The battle of 1,000 piston aircraft is nothing more than scum.
Thinking of those worthless propeller planes, Wang Hai felt that he was killing a chicken with a knife: "I think it would be too wasteful to use missiles to fight those piston planes."
"You are right, so we have decided to sell them aircraft such as the J-6." The commander was full of pride when he talked about this matter.
Datang Group is in contact with various countries in the Eastern Continent to sell some of its outdated fighter technology to countries that are looking forward to owning new jet fighters. This process went smoothly, and many countries were trying to catch up with the military technology advancement of the Tang Empire.
