It is no wonder that the heads of state will behave like this.
The United States, after summing up the experience of the Gulf War in 1994, proposed a low-cost and high-efficiency precision guided weapon.
It is based on the conventional aerial bomb, equipped with the control surface of inertial guidance and GPS global positioning system components, combined with the folded wide aspect ratio wing, to create a high-precision long-range projectile.
The range of the basic model is 63 km, and the range of the improved model with rocket power system is increased to 200 km.
As for the application principle of this kind of ammunition is not complicated, it is nothing more than the mechanism of high-altitude unpowered glider, which makes the heavy bomb with folding wing float to the target.
It is not necessary to use manpower to control the steering of the control surface and wing for unpowered glider. The joint defense external strike weapon is to control the control surface in real time to revise the course according to the established parameters of inertial navigation and the coordinate position of global positioning system.
Because of this, the most valuable part of the whole set of joint defense external strike weapons is the inertial satellite guidance system integrated in the tail.
As for the bomb itself, and even the rocket booster, it's not worth a lot of money. In particular, the rocket booster looks as if it's tall. In fact, it's just like putting a few firecracker like grains on the bomb.
For example, if the bomb is flying at a low altitude, click it and climb it. It will slide further, but it is not permanent. At most, it can only be started three times.
Simple and rough, after throwing, start boost, put it all in one breath, then open your wings and glide further with strong inertia.
However, whether it is a one-time all Soha, or a staged release, this kind of technology can be said to be very mature, just a little higher than the second kick.
Even the inertial satellite guidance component, which accounts for 60% of the cost, is not as expensive as expected. First of all, inertial guidance is also a very mature product. A lot of equipment has been in the equipment for a long time. Even the global positioning system is also cheap for Americans. After all, people's GPS has recovered the cost in the civil field.
A large number of software, positioning devices and transceiver components developed by relying on GPS have already formed a complete and mature industrial chain. With a little integration, the US military can form a very effective guidance and positioning architecture.
Because of this, the United States military should not be too cheap for the joint defense zone outside strike weapons. The comprehensive procurement cost of a common 500 kg joint defense zone outside strike weapon is only US $15000.
Compared with cruise missiles that cost US $1 million and tactical ballistic missiles that cost US $3 million at every turn, the weapons used to strike outside the joint defense zone are too cheap to explode.
The problem is that this kind of weapon can't help being cheap, and its precision is also excellent, or take the 500kg joint defense zone strike weapon as an example, and the comprehensive circle probability precision is not more than 12m.
We need to know that the radiation radius of a 500 kg air bomb should be at least 20 meters. The accuracy of 12 meters means that as long as 500 kg joint defense zone external strike weapons come, the survival probability of the target is zero.
Because of this, the U.S. military has a special preference for the joint defense zone outside strike weapons. It not only makes great efforts to develop such conventional weapons, but also actively develops special equipment.
For example, ground penetrating bombs are used to attack solid hangars, bunkers and underground command bunkers.
In addition, the U.S. military has spared no effort to transfer this kind of technology to its own nuclear arsenals. By using the mature technology and accumulated experience of joint defense zone outside strike weapons, the U.S. military has upgraded a large number of airborne B61 tactical nuclear weapons. The hit accuracy of this kind of throwing nuclear weapons has been improved from 300 meters to an amazing 10 meters.
This is also the reason why the Americans continue to put pressure on Russia and other four countries in the new round of nuclear disarmament negotiations to jointly reduce the charge equivalent of tactical nuclear weapons.
With the improvement of hit accuracy of American tactical nuclear weapons, even if the charge equivalent is reduced by 50%, it will not affect the combat effect, but will be more flexible.
Russia and other countries where there are Americans that abnormal level of accuracy, can only maintain the charge equivalent, with the power to make up for the lack of accuracy.
As a result, the United States easily occupied the moral high ground, accusing Russia and other countries of neglecting world peace and selfishness, taking the old road of the Soviet Union's demise and giving up to the people of the world.
No way, this is the performance of technological hegemony in military, political and even diplomatic.
What do you really want to say? Everyone else has to refute. Excuse me, do you have the technology to attack weapons outside the joint defense zone?
Yes, no, not a single country.
Although the cost of the joint defense zone's external strike weapons is not high, and the technologies are very mature, there is a premise that there must be an independent global satellite navigation system.
On this basis, we can boldly announce that our tactical nuclear weapons equivalent has been reduced by half, and then point out that others are militaristic and regardless of world peace.
However, in addition to the U.S. GPS has achieved full practicality, other countries have one count, in this regard are all blank.Of course, Russia has its own satellite navigation system. The problem is that Russia's economic situation is too bad. Russia has been struggling to maintain the navigation system left over from the Soviet era. It's a miracle that Russia can keep its own strategic rocket army with basic accuracy. How can we think about other things?
Because of this, all countries in the world know that the joint defense zone outside strike weapons are good things, but only the United States can really win.
Since it's a single business, it's actually a monopoly. Since it's a monopoly, the price can't be estimated.
The U.S. military uses US $15000 each for its own use, and the sales abroad will at least be increased by 10 times. Not long ago, the French air force ordered a batch of 500 kg of joint defense zone strike weapons at a unit price of US $200000.
There is a discount for Israel's son, but it is also sold for 140000 US dollars.
But even so, there are still a lot of countries that are flocking to this kind of weapons, including China. The problem is that people in the United States don't sell you how much they spend at home, so it's useless to rush.
I thought there would be no prospect for this thing in China in ten years, but I didn't expect to see 500 kg domestic strike weapons outside the joint defense zone in the hangar of the new No.2 Branch of Tengfei group and on the pylon of the improved fbc-1a fighter bomber.
In this way, the heads of the United States who have been greedy for similar weapons are not excited.
But just because of this, their doubts are even more intense, because the core of such weapons is satellite positioning system, which is still blank in China. How did Tengfei group solve this problem?
"We are using the GLONASS satellite positioning system of Russia. The theoretical accuracy can reach 3 meters, but after our actual test, it can only maintain about 15 meters and is unstable. Fortunately, our inertial navigation system is excellent enough to control the accuracy of gsn-500max precision guided bomb to 22 meters."
Without waiting for the leaders to ask questions, Zhuang Jianye made a clear statement about the satellite positioning. Then he looked at the head of the headquarters and made a request that shocked everyone present: "personally, chief, I think we should develop our own global satellite navigation system. Everyone knows that if we want to get rich, we need to build roads first. Roads are infrastructure, and so is the global satellite navigation system It's the infrastructure of outer space. The road can make the people rich, and the global satellite navigation system can also make our country rich and strong, chief ~ ~ ~ "
