Although the heart of Zhuang Jianye this new routine is all kinds of criticism, but it is really shocked.
You know, the weight of the pilot helmet that lucask complex is going to sell recently is more than 2.5kg, and the weight will be increased according to the optional equipment. The highest top version, the new generation of pilot helmet that claims to kill enemy aircraft with eyes, weighs as much as 2.84kg.
At that time, Lao Mu took it with him, and it was no different from an iron knot.
The problem is that the equipment in such a heavy thing doesn't really have the ability to point out where to hit, as advocated by the lucask complex. At most, it can improve the recognition accuracy a little bit compared with the pilot helmet used by the original Su-27 fighter, which increases the hit probability of the R-73 air space fighter by a few percentage points.
As for the subversive ability advocated by the lucask complex, Lao Mu didn't find it at all. He nearly broke his neck after flying for ten minutes with a 2.84 kg helmet.
The performance has not been improved much, but the weight has been doubled. It can be seen that the materials, microelectronics and system integration of lucask complex can not keep up with the times.
In contrast, the "sniper" helmet of Tengfei group is a completely different plane. Although Lao Mu is far away from it, he can see clearly that the "sniper" helmet integrates many flight elements compared with the general pilot helmet.
Therefore, it has gone far beyond the simple target indication, but towards the development of multi-functional integrated display.
But at this point, we have dumped the similar products of lucask complex.
Because of this, Lao Mu thinks that it's OK for such helmets to be heavier. After all, there are so many things integrated. When the Russians improve their accuracy, they can make the weight of helmets fly up. It's normal for them to have more things embedded in their own things, resulting in excessive weight.
After all, it's an experimental helmet. There's still a long way to go before it's officially finalized. At least there's room for improvement.
So when Lao Mu went forward to experience, he had already relaxed the criteria for judging the "sniper" pilot's helmet in his heart. Even if it was as high as 10 kg, as long as the display performance was excellent, and the whole visual mode, target display and other basic conditions were in line with the future tactical development direction, Lao Mu would support it with both hands. After all, the things representing the future could be quickly flawed at this stage.
As a result, after Lao Mu got the helmet of "sniper" pilot in his hand, he found that it was not only much lower than the weight of lucask complex product, but also better than his expected best result.
However, 2.05kg, integrated with so many things, can still maintain at this weight level. Obviously, Tengfei group has made great efforts in this aspect.
So Lao Mu completely ignored Zhuang Jianye's brand-new outfit 13, held up his helmet and asked, "how did you do it?"
"It's a shame that we originally wanted to use Kevlar as the main material of the helmet, but the weight of this material is a little too heavy. We can only use T800 carbon fiber composite as the main material, so that the weight of the whole helmet can be controlled at 0.64kg without pretending other electronic equipment."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
As soon as Zhuang Jianye finished his words, before Lao Mu spoke, the leader of the Academy of Military Sciences on the other side shook his head like a rattle: "T800 carbon fiber is indeed the project material for lightweight Flight Helmet in terms of material and characteristics. The problem is that the amount of this kind of helmet should be controlled at 0.64kg..."
Then the leader of the Academy of Military Sciences shook his head again: "it's impossible."
"I said Lao Wei, the fact is in front of us. How can it be impossible?" Without waiting for Zhuang Jianye to speak, Lao Mou quit. He knew the weight of his helmet better than anyone else.
The optical equipment, electronic equipment, lines and cables inside are fixed, and even some things are difficult to reduce. For example, there are only a few kinds of optical materials that can meet the multi task attribute of optical equipment. It can only be said that in order to reduce weight, the optical equipment should be thinned as much as possible, which can not change much in essence.
The same is true for integrated circuits and cables, so only the helmet itself, which accounts for the largest proportion, can be replaced by other lightweight materials.
Lao Mu is not a technical man at all, but he is a real old pilot. He knows the inside very well, so there is no need for Zhuang Jianye to explain. He is blocked.
Lao Wei took the helmet from Lao Mou, weighed it, looked at it, and then shook his head: "the overall weight may be more than 2kg, but I still don't believe that the helmet itself is only 0.64kg. You know, our Academy of Military Sciences is responsible for the imitation of some pilots' helmets in the localization of Su-27.
In order to reduce the weight, we have tried a variety of materials, one of which is the T800 carbon fiber composite scheme. However, after layer upon layer of control and process improvement, we have achieved the best result of 0.8kg, which is usually maintained at about 1.2kg. "
Then he looked up at Lao Mu and said, "that was done by our Academy of Military Sciences in the best laboratory in China. You Lao Mu don't believe in our strength, do you?""This..."
Now Lao Mu has nothing to say. The Academy of Military Sciences is the most powerful technical force in the whole army. Many of the high-tech equipment of the army originated from the Academy of Military Sciences. Even such a place can only achieve the best result of 0.8 kg. How can Tengfei group produce similar products of 0.64 kg?
You know, the value of Tengfei group is 20% lower than Lao Wei's best score.
A total of 20%, which is astronomical in terms of the aviation supporting equipment that will have a significant impact on both plus and minus 1%.
All the people present, including the head of the headquarters, were not stupid. They were very clear about the interest in this, so they all looked at Zhuang Jianye to see how the leader of Tengfei group could explain.
Zhuang Jianye didn't panic because of Lao Wei's query. Instead, he asked Lao Wei, "chief Wei, did you use the manual application and curing process to make a 0.8kg pilot helmet?"
Lao Wei nodded: "yes, we have been using this kind of technology, and it is also the most common and mature integral molding process of carbon fiber composites at home and abroad."
With these words, Lao Wei straightened his body unconsciously, and at the same time, he became quite proud: "however, with our unremitting efforts, we have optimized the mold of the process, the selection of epoxy resin, the environmental control during application, and the temperature and time of hot press curing, which leads to the achievement of 0.8kg. According to the current public data at home and abroad, this is the best choice It's among the highest in the world. "
"Why don't you try automation?" Zhuang Jianye asked.
"You mean ATL, carbon fiber composite automatic tape laying machine? This kind of equipment is really good. The problem is that ATL can only be used for general plane laying... "
"No, no, chief Wei, I'm not talking about ATL. I'm talking about AFP that can be used for carbon fiber laying on complex surfaces." Before Lao Wei finished, Zhuang Jianye shook his head.
"I said Xiaozhuang, there is no AFP in China, so Wait... "
Listening to Zhuang Jianye's words, Lao Wei laughs and feels that the younger generation is still too young to mention. As a result, as soon as his words are spoken, he realizes what's wrong. He immediately looks at the helmet in his hand and Zhuang Jianye again. He stares at Zhuang Jianye and asks, "you You Don't you already have AFP? "
