Chapter 2314

Now, intercepting ordinary aircraft is nothing for the Han country.

A large number of fighters are enough to take off at the first time and arrange a defense airspace of hundreds of kilometers forward. It is not easy for the other side's aircraft to break in. Then, if there are breakthrough aircraft, they have to face the attack of various air defense firepower of the Han country. Even at the nearest place, there are rapid fire guns waiting. It can be described as three-dimensional.

However, there is still a blank in dealing with ballistic missiles. If the other side shoots ballistic missiles, its own side simply has no defense capability.

Xiongguo first deployed the anti missile system, code named rubber sleeve, which is installed near the capital of xiongguo. However, this system uses nuclear warheads to intercept it in this violent way. Even if it is successful, it is also a kind of damage to the capital of xiongguo, and those nuclear radiation will stay over the capital of xiongguo.

This is also because the bear country can't do it. The nuclear bomb only needs to be close to a few hundred meters, which is very safe. Even a kilometer error is enough to detonate the other party's warhead. If an ordinary warhead is used, it needs to be close to the order of meters. Even if it needs to be destroyed by impact, it is necessary to reduce this error to the order of centimeters.

In the 1960s, there was no such ability.

Now, the hardware of this technology has been gradually available. Our side has advanced phased array radar system, high-speed computer system and technical reserves of ground to air missiles. Now, we need to look at the long-term.

"In the first step, we need to continue to improve the performance of the missile of this air defense system," Qin Guan said. "The range needs to reach 400 kilometers and the firing height needs to be further expanded, so that we can intercept medium-range ballistic missiles."

To improve the capability of the air defense system, we must first improve the performance of the air defense missile. We must have a longer range and height. We can stop the target outside the atmosphere. Therefore, even if we continue to increase the missile body, it is also possible. Look at the s300v of Xiong Guo, which is such a thick and long beast.

"The second is to design newer warheads," Qin Guan said. "If you want to improve the interception ability, you must improve the warheads."

Today's air defense missiles use radar guidance. The radar irradiates the target, the target sends back electromagnetic waves, reaches the missile's seeker, and guides the missile to hit the target. At present, this method is the most mature. However, if it is used to deal with ballistic missiles, especially medium-range ballistic missiles, it is still not enough, As the distance increases, its accuracy will also decrease, which is enough to make a mistake for an attack in space. Qin Guan said that it is understandable to further increase the volume and range, but if we use newer warheads, this is a new concept.

Qin Guan knew that everyone had questions, so he explained: "Specifically, outside the atmosphere, our traditional rudder surface has failed. Therefore, we must use a warhead with orbital mobility. This warhead does not have a particularly large mass, nor does it need to be equipped with any explosives or metal fragments to kill. We use its powerful kinetic energy to directly hit and kill!"

This is very different from the current missiles. A 500 kg missile may have a warhead of 100 kg. It is not only high explosives, but also a circle of iron rods or metal fragments. When it explodes, these metals will spread into a mass. As long as the enemy aircraft or missile hits any metal fragment, the missile will be destroyed.

Outside the atmosphere, of course, this method can also be used, but this method is too cumbersome. With the increase of target speed, they need to spread more area. In this way, the warhead also needs to be larger, and the fuel during launch needs to be more, forming a dead cycle.

What if a lighter warhead is used? Even if it is only equipped on the air defense missile with a range of 200 kilometers, the range will soar rapidly after the warhead is light. After all, the warhead is its only payload.

This warhead should have the orbital mobility outside the atmosphere. At the same time, it abandons the traditional warhead and directly destroys the other side through precise impact.

These words completely confused the experts in front of them, because Qin Guan didn't say the most important thing.

"This warhead will use monochromatic forward-looking infrared working at long wave as the target sensing / calibration device. We take it near the target in the traditional way, and then use this device to help it finally achieve accurate impact."

When dealing with ballistic missiles, using infrared is beneficial, because the launch and fall of ballistic missiles pass through the atmosphere. At high speed, the warhead will be rubbed to a high temperature of thousands of degrees. It can be easily captured by infrared devices, which is absolutely more accurate than the normal guidance method.

Such warheads can not only work in the atmosphere, but also intercept outside the atmosphere, which means that they can intercept not only in the falling section of the enemy's ballistic missile, but also in the middle section!

The flight of ballistic missiles is similar to that of ordinary shells. Rockets ignite, launch, turn in the sky and fly along a ballistic route. The whole can be divided into three stages: the rising stage of ignition process, the middle stage of flight after leaving the atmosphere, and the landing stage of reentry into the atmosphere.

During the landing phase, the warhead is already near the target. Even if the interception is successful, it is easy to cause damage to the target. Without nuclear explosion, the radioactive pollution of the nuclear warhead is big enough.

In the middle section, destroying the warhead while it was still flying in outer space obviously could better protect the target. Now, after Qin Guan's introduction, everyone's eyes lit up.

Yes, if you have such equipment, it would be better, but the difficulty is quite high!

"I can help you find some information." Qin Guan said, "this interception method is technically difficult. It may take five to ten years to overcome it. Therefore, we can't be too hasty. Now, it's also of practical significance to complete the interception experiment of short-range missiles with existing devices."

There's no fun recently. Exchange the data of standards -3 and TMD. If you have equipment, you can also bring it along and give it to experts for research.
