Chapter 837

General Gu was secretly pleased and immediately patted his chest and said, "commander, give us the task. We will try our best to overcome the technology of air refueling and develop an air fuel receiver based on our j-8-2. We can also coordinate the modification of the bombardment 6 of the air force to become an air tanker."

Whether it's Yunshi or sc-5, these are far away, and it's best to take what's available.

"Then please take more care of Mr. Gu." Qin Guan did not continue to talk about the male cat's aerial refueling ability, but continued to talk about the next aspect.

"General, we want to protect our airspace. In addition to fighters, it is more important to have air early warning aircraft." Qin Guan continued his thinking.

Time waits for no man. The Han state has a vast territorial air space. If there is no air early warning aircraft, it is absolutely impossible. This idea has been told to general Lin. now, general Lin is also here. When hearing Qin Guan's words, he nodded immediately: "Yes, if we want to defend the southwest and northwest, we must have an air early warning aircraft. Now the other party doesn't dare to come at high altitude and high speed. We're afraid to be beaten. What if they fly over at ultra-low altitude?"

This is really unsolvable.

Even if our side has continuously deployed long-range radar stations in the territory in recent years, we still can't find ultra-low altitude aircraft in time. If the other side wants to continue spying for intelligence, it may fly over at ultra-low altitude.

It's not easy to search for ultra-low altitude aircraft. Although with the progress of technology, the current fighter radar in Han has been equipped with pulse Doppler technology, which can filter out the signal from the complex clutter on the ground, after all, the fighter can't fly all the time without limit.

Air early warning aircraft are more appropriate. In wartime, air early warning aircraft can play a more effective role, which is completely a multiplier of air combat power.

Now, when Qin Guan mentioned the air early warning aircraft, everyone present was very impressed: "President Qin, our air police No. 1 has just dismounted."

Qin Guan can't pay attention to all the projects. Qin Guan doesn't know that the air police No. 1 project was launched last year.

In September 1969, following the development trend of the world air force equipment construction, and because of the repeated humiliation of being investigated in China, the air force proposed to develop an air early warning aircraft. According to the time when the development work was approved, the early warning aircraft under development was code named "926 aircraft".

This is also the era when the air early warning aircraft has just sprung up. The first air early warning aircraft E-2 "eagle eye" specially designed by yingguohuan was refitted from a turboprop aircraft; xiongguotu-126 "moss" air early warning aircraft was just equipped with troops in 1969; the Royal Air Force of NiuGuo received the "hunting fan" MK1 electronic reconnaissance aircraft refitted from a "comet" 4C jet aircraft in the same year.

Han started not late. First of all, the first step is to select the carrier. The carrier must have the following conditions: first, strong loading capacity to carry large radar antennas and accommodate electronic equipment and operators; second, good endurance performance to perform long-term air patrol tasks.

Finally, Han decided to choose tu-4 aircraft as the carrier aircraft and make major technical modifications to the overall aircraft.

Compared with the carrier modified from figure-4, the total resistance of the aircraft after installing a huge radome and support system on the back

The force increased by about 30%. In order to ensure the flight performance and safety of the aircraft, the original piston engine of figure-4 aircraft was replaced to increase the power of the full power device by 67%. At the same time, technicians modified the aerodynamic shape and structure of the carrier, and more than 2000 blowing tests were carried out in the whole development process.

The first test flight of "926 aircraft" was successful on June 10, 1971, and it was named "air police No. 1".

From then on, the long test flight began. For example, for the first test flight with radome, "air police No. 1" had a violent vibration in the air. After more than two years of hard research, the tail buffeting caused by the turbulence at the rear of the radome was finally eliminated.

The radar installed on it has been repeatedly improved, but due to limited technology, most of them are electronic tube circuits, resulting in poor performance. Only the filtering effect of sea clutter is not good, and it can not be used on the ground. Therefore, after tossing for so many years, the performance of early warning radar can not meet the needs, "air police No. 1" The development was stopped in 1979.

Up to now, only one year has passed, and in this year, the progress of Han airliners is quite fast. The airborne flat panel slot radar has made a breakthrough, and the airborne solid-state circuit has been developed.

Now, hearing about air police No. 1, Qin Guan immediately made up his mind: "it seems that our new early warning aircraft research and development can be entrusted to this team and built by using our latest technology."

The previous ones should be eliminated. No matter how you look at them, they can't be developed successfully.

On the airframe, you can no longer use figure-4. You have Yunshi and sc-5 to choose from. On the radar side, you can also combine with 114.

"As long as our air force can make up its mind, the early warning aircraft can be developed," Qin Guan said.

Qin Guan was confident, but he invested a lot in it. Without the nod of the air force, everything would be difficult.

"Well, Mr. Qin, we will demonstrate immediately and ask the superior for instructions," said General Zhang.

When Qin Guan talked about the early warning aircraft, he didn't care about the general manager, but general manager Gu was still listening, hoping to hear the news beneficial to his side.

After saying the warning plane, Qin Guan sure enough continued to talk about something related to him.

"One more thing," Qin Guan said, "our northern industrial company plans to participate in the van Paul air show in NiuGuo, Europe this year."

The northern industrial company is in charge of export, and it is also a grand event in aviation. Now that everyone is here, Qin Guan simply said it and just made an application.

"Participating in the van Paul air show?" hearing Qin Guan's words, the people present were stunned.

"Yes." Qin Guan said, "the van Paul air show is a great event in the world aviation field and a good opportunity for us to sell equipment. I hope we can organize a team to show our aircraft there, so that we can better sell our aircraft and exchange valuable foreign exchange for the country."

The Minister of aviation industry nodded: "yes, Mr. Qin, your idea is good. What plane are you going to take?"

In the past, our side had never participated in this kind of air show, because it was not necessary, and our side had nothing to take, but now it is different. Now there are at least several, which are fist products, and it is time to publicize the made in Han country.
