Chapter 233
Kong Bai has experienced many greetings and sendings in Shamen and Sanya, and he is already surprised by such a scene. However, what is more special today is that among the crowd welcomed at the scene, the proportion of personnel wearing military uniforms is a bit large, at least more than half.
As soon as Director Qin got off the car, he began to introduce their identities to Kong Bai one by one. Among the crowds welcomed at the entrance of the building, there were senior managers and core technical backbones of many enterprises such as Longhang Industry, Magic Dragon Guardian Company, Longhang Shipbuilding, Xinlong Aerospace, Longguo North Industry, Longguo Heavy Machinery Group, etc., as well as some external experts, scholars and senior technicians specially appointed by those enterprises.
As for those soldiers, one part is the military technical and quality control representatives stationed in various enterprises of various units, and the other part is the military personnel of the recently established Zhonghai Theater!
Kong Bai listened to Director Qin's introduction, carefully looked at those military personnel in the Zhonghai Theater, and found that they had two common characteristics, first of all, they were very young, very young, and even several, feeling that they had just graduated from college, and secondly, they were very bookish, and the fortitude, firmness and sharpness that were common in those soldiers were not very obvious in them!
Seeing this, Kong Bai frowned slightly, did not say anything, and after shaking hands with them one by one and saying a few greetings, under the greeting of Director Qin, he took the brand-new elevator that was just replaced and went upstairs...
In the conference room, everyone exchanged pleasantries, and then Director Qin presided over and began to introduce Kong Bai to the latest progress of Longhang Industry and this military industrial park.
At present, Longhang Industry is mainly engaged in the design, research and development and production of UAV series products, and has now built two medium-sized UAV production lines, according to last month's output statistics, it is estimated that it can produce about 150 medium-sized UAVs per year.
Director Qin further introduced that the positioning of this medium-sized aircraft he said is a "penetrating air superiority unmanned fighter", and its main combat weapon is a high-energy laser launcher, which is commonly known as a laser cannon.
Their use is mainly to compete for air supremacy on the battlefield, destroy enemy air power, penetrate and strike enemy deep air targets, such as early warning aircraft, transport aircraft, tankers, etc., defend our airspace from enemy fighters, bombers, reconnaissance planes and unmanned aerial vehicles, and carry out escort tasks for our various large UAVs, transport aircraft, tankers, early warning aircraft, etc.
At the same time, in order to be able to carry out battlefield penetrating ground strike missions, each UAV is also designed with two belly hidden missile hanging points and two external bomb hanging points, which can be loaded with anti-radiation missiles, and use the electromagnetic radiation emitted by enemy radars for guidance, so as to achieve in-depth and accurate strikes and destroy tactical targets of enemy radars and their carriers, ensure the absolute safety of our air forces, fully grasp air supremacy, and maintain overwhelming air superiority.
However, the addition of anti-radiation missiles requires sacrificing a large part of the flight performance of air superiority unmanned fighters, including cruising range, flight speed and maneuverability.
The main reason is that this medium-sized UAV is too small, and the anti-radiation missile is a bit large compared to its "small man"!
This medium air superiority unmanned fighter has a total length of only 10 meters, a wingspan of 8.5 meters, an empty weight of less than 8.5 tons, a full take-off weight of nearly 20 tons, a maximum range of up to 9,000 kilometers, and with two drop tanks, its range can be increased to about 13,500 kilometers, and the maximum combat radius is 3,000-5,000 kilometers.
If you do not take into account the case of mounting missiles, this size is very satisfactory, not too big or small, just right. Moreover, the performance of this fighter is very strong, with long cruising range, large combat radius, fast flight speed, and flight control is also carried out by artificial intelligence sub-consciousness carriers, which is an excellent mess.
The only drawback is that the ground attack capability is not strong enough, especially against ground-based radar targets.
At present, the weight of the DMYJ-102 anti-radiation missile assembled by Longguo's main force is about 0.5 tons, which is a bit too heavy compared to medium-sized UAVs. If 4 DMYJ-102 anti-radar missiles are attached, it is necessary to increase the load by 2 tons and reduce the two drop tanks, so that its combat radius is greatly reduced to less than 2,000 km.
In fact, the original intention of the design of this UAV is simply for air combat. It was born to compete for air supremacy, and it is indeed a bit difficult for it to carry missiles to carry out ground strike missions. That should be the task to be performed by a large strategic unmanned fighter-bomber, but the design of the current large UAV has not yet been completed, so it is difficult to let this "little man" take on this task first.
At present, Longhang Industry has designed and completed 7 small and medium-sized UAVs of different models and different functions, in addition to this air superior unmanned fighter, there are 6 smaller UAVs, including long-range reconnaissance and combat integrated aircraft, ultra-long-range high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, low-altitude battlefield support fighters, long-endurance battlefield guard fighters, ultra-high-speed anti-missile fighters, etc., basically covering all air combat needs at the tactical level.
Because these fighters adopt the concept of functional modularization, many functional components can be applied to different models of fighters across platforms, so the design of these small UAVs is very rapid, and the production line can also be partially universal.
Simply put, many parts are carved out of a mold, but the size and precision are different, for example, the ultra-high-speed anti-missile fighter, is a smaller air superiority fighter, its length is less than 7 meters, the wingspan is less than 4 meters, but in order to fly fast, do a lot of aerodynamic shape optimization, the use of composite multi-stroke engine, can be switched in a variety of propulsion modes, in liquid oxygen with hydrocarbon fuel turbo ramjet engine propulsion, The top speed can exceed Mach 10 per hour, and if the rocket boost mode is turned on at this time, the maximum speed can reach Mach 25 per hour, so that any incoming missile has nowhere to escape!
It's just that the opening time of its rocket engine is only a pitiful less than five minutes, and once it is turned on, it can only be sprayed at one time, and it cannot be used a second time in the same mission!
However, the mission of this drone is to find and destroy incoming enemy missiles.
Completing the task as quickly as possible and avoiding major losses on our side is the only requirement for it!
At present, Longhang Industry is building 5 flexible production lines, dedicated to the production of these seven small and medium-sized UAVs, and has established a multi-model joint production line coordination department, which is nicknamed "seven weapons".
As for the current progress of large UAVs, it is not so fast, except for one front-line fighter-bomber, which is undergoing final design finalization, and other large aircraft are still stuck in concept!
When Director Qin said this, his eyes intentionally or unintentionally glanced at several people on the opposite seat, pouted, and continued to speak without resentment...
