Wu Ping didn't boast because he was a foreigner and had a good face. He was really telling the truth.
You should know that ty-6 is essentially different from the previous ty-2 series and Wudi 8 series of Tengfei group. The first is the big platform.
Total length: 10.26m.
Wingspan: 31.82 M.
Height: 4.47M.
Empty weight: 2860kg.
Total load: 2600 kg.
Among them, the nose equipment cabin can carry 900 kg of modular electronic equipment; the fuel tanks of the wings on both sides and the central wing box can carry 1000 kg of fuel, and the four multifunctional pylons under the wings can carry 700 kg of additional equipment.
In addition, it can be flexibly adjusted in three load positions according to the requirements of the tasks to be performed. For example, in the communication support task currently being performed by ty-6, if a larger range of communication support equipment is needed, the unnecessary equipment in the nose equipment cabin can be reduced, and the total amount of fuel carried can be reduced, so as to add extra fuel on the other two multifunctional pylons Hang GSM communication base station pod.
Meteorological research, coastal search, disaster assessment, forest fire prevention, route inquiry, and even pure military ammunition carrying are not problems.
Of course, Zhuang Jianye has always sneered at the latter behavior. Even ty-6 can carry air-to-ground missiles, laser guided bombs, TV guided bombs, ordinary air bombs and even air rocket nests, with a total weight of 1.2 tons.
After all, ty-6 is equipped with a wd-42sm turbofan engine which is very mature in Tengfei group. The maximum thrust is 3203kg, the total weight is 725kg, and the thrust weight ratio is 4.41.
For an aircraft with a maximum take-off weight of more than 5 tons, the power of wd-42sm turbofan engine is surging enough. With the flat streamline layout and the integrated back treatment of engine cabin, it comes from the wing body fusion technology of J-7 Max and the "V" type vertical tail that Tengfei group has been adhering to on UAVs since the mid-1980s Science fiction layout of wing and supercritical wing.
As a result, the maximum flight speed of ty-6 exceeds 660 kmh, the practical lift limit reaches 15000 meters, the theoretical range is 12000 km, and the dead time exceeds 18 hours.
No matter from which aspect, ty-6 is the world's leading large-scale UAV platform. Just because of this, Zhuang Jianye has always believed that ty-6 is an important product to promote world peace, so there is always a little tangle about its military alternative use. After all, Tengfei group is a conscientious enterprise to promote human development. How can it sell weapons to kill people?
Of course, if the buyer, under the banner of buying civilian products, takes them back to the battlefield, he can't help it. Can the kitchen knife cut people down? Is it because it doesn't let the common people buy to cook?
It doesn't make sense.
It's the same with Tengfei group. The customers who come to buy things are God and father. Since they have guaranteed that the products they buy back will be used in the civil field, Tengfei group certainly can't go to the bottom of the matter. No matter how to say that Tengfei group is a small enterprise struggling to survive, and it's not a powerful department like CIA and KBG. It's really hard work but hard work.
Just like the chujiao 6pro that was sold to Myanmar some time ago, it has been clearly stated in the agreement that the aircraft delivered in the past are only limited to pilot training, so as to promote the development of Myanmar's national aviation industry.
As a result, at the beginning of this month, the Burmese air force had just received three aircraft, and could not wait to install machine gun pods and aerial bombs to suppress the rebels with the army.
Zhuang Jianye is helpless, but what can he do?
After the contract is signed, can you still rely on not to continue the delivery? Business did not do so, so Tengfei group can only face MMP, heart happy Bah, it's more MMP delivery as soon as possible.
Based on the lesson of 6pro, Zhuang Jianye simply modified the format agreement of Tengfei group. In a word, what Tengfei group sells is always civil products, but customers use these civil products for military purposes, which has nothing to do with Tengfei group, because it is not the subjective behavior of Tengfei group.
As a result, the maximum missile load reached 1.2 tons, which is equivalent to the high-performance ty-6 large UAV platform of the early strike plane level. To be honest, the whole Tengfei group, including Zhuang Jianye, is still looking forward to it.
Of course, although ty-6 is good, it also has obvious defects, that is, the coverage rate of domestic communication satellites is too small to realize the global deployment of localization.
Therefore, if other countries want to buy, they can only install civil service components of foreign communication satellites for their customers. They not only need to pay high satellite service fees of foreign satellite management companies, but also are not very ideal in terms of communication distance, control accuracy and confidentiality.
Otherwise, the range of ty-6 would not have been marked as 12000 km in theory.
Because with inefficient satellite support, ty-6 can't fly that far.
Naturally, China will not use such inferior foreign satellite communication components. Compared with the early 1980s when Tengfei group first produced large-scale UAVs, the domestic development in the aerospace field has made rapid progress.Since 1986, dongfanghong-2 communication satellite has been put into practical deployment. In the following years, several geostationary orbit communication satellites of the same type have been successively put into service. In addition to several civil communication satellites of China satellite series purchased from abroad, a local satellite communication network in China and even in the Asia Pacific region has been initially established.
Thanks to the establishment of this satellite network, ty-6's communication and control system can completely get rid of the control of foreign products, so that the transmission speed, reliability, cost performance and the most important confidentiality of ty-6 have been substantially improved.
It's just that these benefits can only be achieved in one third of China. There's no way. Who can make the domestic satellite communication network fail to achieve the global coverage of the United States.
But even so, it's much better than a few years ago. At least today's ty-6 can fly out of the inland and circle in the near sea, unlike a few years ago when it was out of the mainland, it was like a headless fly that couldn't find the north.
Of course, Wu Ping can't explain the specific performance of ty-6 to Christina one by one on the phone, and the famous left-wing Virgin Mary in Europe who likes to stick to her own opinions can't accept that China really has such strength even after listening to Wu Ping's explanation.
It's just like when she saw Chinese people, she was surprised why they didn't have braids, because that's the brand rooted in her soul, which can't be changed by seeing something or hearing something.
But even if Christina wanted to listen to Wu Ping patiently, she didn't have this idea, because at the moment, he saw an uninvited guest approaching Linhai very quickly from the screen, so she hurriedly dropped a sentence: "I found something new here, and I'll get in touch later."
Then he hung up without waiting for an answer.
Christina, who has aroused her curiosity, still has a lot of questions to ask. Wu Ping hung up like this and took off her pants, which immediately spread to the whole world.
But before she could complain, the satellite phone in her hand suddenly rang. Christina picked it up and heard the arrogant and indifferent voice of a foreign power: "dear lady, I'm captain Steve cole of the coast guard of a foreign country. Please tell me the exact coordinates of your location. We'll send a plane to the rescue..."
