Can it still be like this?
Although the boots have not yet fallen into the sea, the result is already obvious. Delano's is definitely not as good as Xiang Jing's. He actually lost this competition!
He just requested to use the No. 1 catapult, and he was confident. Although the ejection weight of thirty-six tons was very heavy, the output power of the electromagnetic catapult was also at its highest, and it could also be dynamically adjusted during the ejection process. He believed in himself When Xiang Jing's boots went out, the speed would not be worse than that of the No. 2 catapult, but he never expected that Xiang Jing's shoes actually had wings!
"Knowledge is power." Xiang Jing said with a smile: "I have a double bachelor's degree. In addition to electronic technology, I also took a course in aerodynamics. When I was a senior, the Navy was recruiting people, so I joined the Navy. Otherwise, I should be studying for a Ph.D. now.”
Delano looked very unhappy.
Knowledge is power is not an Eastern proverb, but said by a guy named Bacon. This guy is not a slice of ham, but a famous scholar.
Delano gritted his teeth, and then suddenly fell to the ground: "If you lose, you lose. I won't default on your debt. Come up here!"
The original bet was that whoever lost would do twenty push-ups. Qin Tao also added an additional requirement: he had to carry the opponent on his back. Now that Delano lost, of course he had to fulfill the bet.
At this time, Wang Wei seemed to have understood: Mr. Qin's words just now were all intentional. Is this to bring the two of them together?
Delano is not young anymore. He has been flying in the East for these years and has never found a woman. And this confrontation between him and Xiang Jing can spark a lot of sparks. Maybe the two of them can be together. .
At that time, who will listen to whom? Does Draenor still dare to fly freely in the sky? On the early warning aircraft, Xiang Jing shouted: Mad dog, come back! Delano would have to come back wagging his tail. Thinking of this scene, Wang Wei found it very interesting.
Xiang Jing glanced at Delano's back: "Forget it, I can't ride on your back. That would be disrespectful to you."
The bet was just for a breath, and Xiang Jing has vented her anger now. As for riding on Delano's back and doing push-ups? That's impossible?
Delano's expression changed: "You look down on me?"
After Delano finished speaking, he suddenly ran over in a few steps. Xiang Jing's expression changed, but before she could react, something was stuffed between her legs. Then, her legs left the ground, and Delano actually put it She carried it on her head!
Xiang Jing exclaimed and subconsciously held Delano's head with her hands. At this time, Delano's legs were bent into a horse stance and had already bent down.
"Change push-ups into squats," Delano said. "I don't owe anyone anything."
"Asshole, put me down!"
Delano didn't listen at all and continued to squat there. The onlookers were stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
Xiang Jing became even more shy. She pinched Delano's face with both hands and pulled Delano's face into various shapes. Delano didn't scream and continued to hum. For him, , carrying an Oriental woman to do twenty squats, couldn’t be simpler.
After finishing, Delano put Xiang Jing down. At this time, Xiang Jing blushed and stamped her feet, wanting to scold Delano, but looking at Delano's purple face, And said nothing.
On the ship island, Zhang Zhen looked at this scene and sighed: "I think something can happen to Delano and Xiang Jing. He has been coming to our east for several years. It would be good if he married Xiang Jing, and with their reputation Anyone of any age and seniority can get married.”
Soldiers have to protect their families and the country, but they also have to live their own lives. Soldiers must not get married, but it is different for officers. Officers may have to work for a lifetime, so how can they do it without getting married.
As long as the pilots are allowed to fly solo, they can file a report and apply for marriage. The army must also arrange the life and work of their family members so that the pilots can devote themselves to flying with confidence. If both are pilots, it is a great event worthy of celebration.
"Yes, Mr. Qin came to participate in the audition, and he can do so many tricks. I heard that he also arranged for Xu Zhengyang's wife. He is not bad at that time." Makarov said.
"The report, the ejection data has come out. Our catapult is as stable as on land and is not affected by the shaking of the ship. It is also not affected by temperature."
Under different temperatures, the efficiency of steam catapults is different, and the engine efficiency of aircraft carrier-based aircraft is also different, so temperature will also have a great impact, but on Eastern aircraft carriers, temperature will not have any impact!
After hearing this report, Zhang Zhen turned his mind back to his work: "Okay, in that case, let's start the next stage of testing."
"The flight wing decided to first use the No. 1 ejection position and the No. 2 ejection position to eject the J-15 and the Air Police 600, and then increase the counterweight in sequence, and finally reach a fully loaded take-off state."
"Okay, let's mount it first."
The J-15 can carry many weapons, and different weapons need to be mounted according to different tasks.
Among them, the empty mount is the lightest.
The deck was busy again.
"One two, one two!" the leading red vest shouted, leading the people behind him to move forward, just like lifting a log. After they lifted the PL-11 air-to-air missile from the ammunition trailer, they walked towards The pylon in the middle of the wing.
"Attention, be careful of the elastic wings!"
American air-to-air missiles are polished rod ammunition, and the wings will not be installed until the pylon is attached. However, Dongfang's air-to-air missiles have the wings installed at the factory, which makes them very complicated to mount, and there may be some mistakes. , bumping the missile wing, even if it is only slightly deformed, will cause damage to the missile.
Mounting is not only a laborious task, but also requires certain skills.
Everyone worked hard and finally hung up the missile.
At this time, the interlude on the bow of the ship was over. Delano strode over and watched missiles begin to be mounted on the wing pylons. He was very happy: "A fighter plane only looks good when missiles are mounted on it. It always looks good." It’s not interesting to fly with bare metal, and there is still a difference in flying whether it is equipped with missiles or not. The slogan is good and the training is close to actual combat, but in the end, even missiles are reluctant to be attached.”
Isn’t this a waste of time? Eastern aviation forces seldom mount missiles during training because they have to be dismantled after being mounted. After being dismantled, they have to be sealed again for maintenance. This wastes more money and launches them during training? On average, being able to hit one missile every few years is already pretty good.
If you really feel itchy, then hang up a rocket launching nest and shoot a few rockets to have fun. After all, it's cheap.
"It should be more convenient in the future." Wang Wei was also watching the bomb hanging operation: "Our Pili-12 missile has completed the final test firing, and achieved a good result of 12 out of 12 rounds. In the future, our missiles will be based on Pili -12 is the main one, and Pili-11 will be gradually eliminated, and there will definitely be more opportunities for target practice."
Over the years, various domestic technologies have been developing rapidly. The semi-active radar-guided Pili-11 air-to-air missile was the first to mature and was mounted on the J-8 fighter jet, giving the J-8 fighter for the first time a medium-range interception capability. capabilities, filling the domestic gap. Later, when the J-11 developed and replaced the imported avionics with domestic avionics, domestic missiles could also be mounted on these fighters.
The later J-11, J-15, and J-16 can all mount the PL-11. This missile is also mass-produced to meet the needs of military training and war preparations. At the same time, new air-to-air missiles are also being developed.
The Pili-11 only solves the problem of availability. It is a semi-active guided missile. After launch, the carrier aircraft must continue to illuminate. This period is when the carrier aircraft is most dangerous. In order to solve this problem, the United States has developed the advanced AIM-120 missile. The radar seeker of this missile has been upgraded to an active seeker. After launch, the first half needs to be illuminated by the aircraft radar, and the latter can fly autonomously. If the carrier aircraft encounters danger and maneuvers to avoid it, it can also fly by inertia and then find the target locked in advance, greatly improving the combat flexibility.
Some experts have analyzed that semi-active missiles have almost no counterattack capability when attacked by active missiles. Therefore, China is also developing active radar-guided PL-12 missiles, and now it is finally considered mature.
"Perak-12 is out?" Upon hearing this, Qin Tao immediately became excited.
"Yes, small batch production has begun. Our carrier-based aviation force is the first unit of the Navy to obtain this missile. When the sea trials are completed and officially put into service, we will be able to use this missile." Wang Wei said.
"Okay, now that this kind of missile has come out, we need to hurry up with the foreign trade of missiles to prevent customers from criticizing our stealth aircraft for not being powerful enough." Qin Tao said.
Foreign trade fighters can help match foreign missiles, but they are mainly matched with domestic PL-8 and PL-11. These missiles are already somewhat lagging behind. In order to make customers more satisfied with the products, better missiles are naturally needed.
"Foreign trade?" Wang Wei was a little curious. This is our latest missile. Can it be exported? However, he was too embarrassed to refute Mr. Qin face to face.
"Keep hanging up, why don't you hang up?" Delano shouted to the red vests with some dissatisfaction.
The red vests moved quickly and had already mounted four PL-11 missiles, which were distributed on the hangers between the central pylon of the wing and the belly air inlet. There were only these four PL-11 missiles, which were quite few.
"We will mount two PL-8s on the wing tips later," said the red vest.
"That's how much. It's only 1.5 tons with the pylon."
"That's right, let's start with a light load first, and only fill the aircraft with five tons of fuel, so the take-off weight is twenty-five tons."
Delano was speechless, how much is this? It has been tested just now. With the maximum power on the catapult, it can accelerate the 36-ton car to a sufficient speed. Now, we can directly take off with a heavy load without any problems.
However, he can't always question the decisions of his superiors. Many times, he still has to listen obediently. After all, his superiors have been very indulgent to him, and he has to be more sensible.
If the wings are folded, it will be very difficult to mount missiles on the wingtip pylons. Now that the wings are unfolded, the PL-8 can be mounted more quickly.
"Okay, a typical air superiority mount." Delano said: "At this weight, it will be fine to take off with a full load and then turn around and land directly."
"Yes, we are planning to conduct these tests. Delano, do you want to fly?" Wang Wei asked.
Delano nodded: "Of course! My shoes can't fly as far as Xiang Jing's shoes. My plane has to fly over her shoes. I'll fly!"
For Delano, a day without being in the sky makes him feel itchy. Whether it is a J-5 or J-32, he has already become proficient in operating it. Now, when he heard that he was going to fly, the pilots who originally flew over the J-5 also I didn't dare to compete with him, so I had to let him go.
Soon, the J-15 with two near-mounted weapons in the fourth center ejected from the bow catapult and took off without any disturbance. Everyone seemed to be used to it. After it went up, it just made a circle and landed from behind. The second blocking rope was hooked firmly and everything was perfect.
On the bridge, Xiang Jing stood by the porthole, looking at the landing J-15 with complicated eyes.
"That guy is so hateful." Zhang Zhen's voice rang out: "He is Wang Wei's instructor, so Wang Wei can't criticize him in many cases. However, if you have any objections to him, you can report it. It is absolutely not allowed on our aircraft carrier. If you bully a female soldier, I will make the decision for you."
"Bullying? How could he bully me?" Xiang Jing said, "I bully him."
"good."
"Report, Dingo has verified the safety at a take-off weight of twenty-five tons, and now he requests to increase it to twenty-eight tons."
"Okay." Zhang Zhen nodded: "That's all for today. After completing the flight, put the J-15 in the hangar for maintenance."
"yes."
Delano was delighted as he watched the red vest continue to mount anti-ship missiles on him.
The internal fuel was originally five tons, and it took about half a ton to get it up and down. However, there was no need to add more fuel. As long as four more Eagle Strike 83s were mounted, the total weight could be increased to 28 tons.
The YJ-83 anti-ship missile is one of the main anti-ship missiles of the Navy. Its length is 6.86 meters. Fortunately, the air-launched one does not require a booster, otherwise it would be longer. It weighs 0.85 tons, which is only the same as the J-15 Only heavy fighter aircraft can be mounted, and it can also mount four!
The milky white missile body, sky blue warhead, and triangular missile wings are like an enlarged air-to-air missile. This is the main anti-ship missile shape in the 1980s and 1990s. It has similarities with Feiyu. However, in the 21st century, Century later, this kind of missile still seems increasingly backward.
"It's a pity that our YJ-12 and YJ-18 are too big." Qin Tao sighed with emotion.
The YJ-8 series all belong to the second generation of anti-ship missiles. The third generation is the YJ-12, a supersonic anti-ship missile, and the YJ-18, a sub-super combined anti-ship missile. At present, these missiles have become It is the main equipment on naval ships. However, this kind of missile is too big for carrier-based aircraft. It is often seven or eight meters long, making it difficult for carrier-based aircraft to carry it. Only big guys like H-6 can equip it.
"Yes, our advanced anti-ship missiles are too big, and the range of these missiles is too far. The airborne radar of our fighter jets cannot search such a long distance. Even if they are carried, there will be many problems when launching them."
The latter two anti-ship missiles often have a range of four to five hundred kilometers. The fighter radar can only search for large targets on the water within a distance of two to three hundred kilometers. It cannot provide guidance for the missile. It can only use the information from the data link. The fighter jet is just a missile. Carrying the platform and serving no other purpose.
"Fortunately, our H-6K and H-6J are out, so long-range anti-ship missiles should be left to them." Wang Wei said, "We have the current anti-ship missiles which are already good."
Boom six K and boom six J! Speaking of these bombers, Qin Tao had a thought in his mind. He had been busy with various things over the years and had forgotten these two models. When he went back, he would find a chance to take a look at this H-6 variant. The combat effectiveness has improved a lot.
"That's right, when the time comes our carrier-based aircraft can provide escort missions for those aircraft." Delano said while looking at the red vests.
Four anti-ship missiles, two of which are hung below the air inlet, and two are hung on the pylons on the inside of the wing, and the previously mounted missiles have not been removed, thus forming four anti-ship missiles. missiles, four medium-range air-to-air missiles, and two short-range combat missiles.
There are still two pylons that are not used. The J-15 is so awesome, with twelve pylons.
"Are there any risks in landing with these missiles?"
"The total weight is only 28 tons. How can it be dangerous? When our Air Police 600 landed, the total weight was also about 27 tons." Delano said: "The internal fuel of our aircraft has not been filled yet. We will add more fuel in the future and we will land on the ship with a weight of 30 tons. These precious ammunition cannot be thrown into the sea."
Delano flew Tomcat fighter jets at that time. This fighter jet can carry six Phoenix missiles under extreme conditions. However, if it is not fired on the battlefield, it can only throw away two when it comes back, because it can only carry at most six Phoenix missiles. Can land four phoenixes.
It has always been a tradition of the U.S. Navy to throw away unused ammunition to avoid risks when landing. However, as weapons become more and more expensive, Americans with deep pockets can no longer play this way, and they have to live a life of seclusion.
So, when it came to the Super Hornet, they emphasized the ability to land on the ship with ammunition. After some fiddling, they were able to carry up to 4.1 tons of ammunition and land safely on the ship, thus controlling the total weight to less than 20 tons.
As for the French Rafale M, the maximum landing weight is only 15 tons.
There are many reasons that affect the landing capability. The structural strength of the aircraft body and the strength of the landing gear must be high, otherwise it will not be able to withstand the impact during landing. The second is the arresting cable. It can be said that the most important thing affecting the landing weight is the arresting cable. The previous hydraulic When the blocking cable is used, it can stop a carrier-based aircraft of up to 20 tons, and a heavier aircraft may break the blocking cable.
Only the current electromagnetic blocking cable can further improve this ability.
If the Americans knew that Dongfang's carrier-based aircraft recovery capabilities are so strong, I don't know how envious and jealous they would be.
