Chapter 1289

In fact, not only Jean Renault, but also the media reporters and the audience who came to see the details of the fc-21 fighter had such a simple way. Why didn't we expect to be frustrated.

There is no other reason why this is so, just because some of the design of fc-21 fighter, especially the design of weapon pylon, does not adopt the so-called belly bomb cabin as they imagined before, but uses a semi buried weapon pylon to embed two medium range air-to-air bombs and two short-range combat bombs into the belly of the fighter.

In this way, the fc-21 fighter does not increase much radar cross section from the front, not to mention the aircraft resistance is negligible.

This kind of semi buried pylon is not new. It has been used in old bombers and attack planes, but no one has connected this kind of semi buried pylon with overall stealth.

We all think that if we want to be invisible, we must use the belly bomb cabin.

I don't know that the belly bomb cabin not only needs to consider the overall design problem, but also is extremely difficult to manufacture, and the cost is extremely high. That is to say, only a big country like the United States can afford it, and the general regional power and regional overlord can't play at all.

In contrast, although the semi buried pylon of fc-21 fighter is not as big as the belly bomb cabin of the fourth generation fighter, it has preliminarily realized the radar stealth ability in a cheap and reliable way.

Perhaps in the confrontation between big powers, this stealth effect may not play a big role, but for countries like regional power and regional hegemony, fc-21 fighter is enough. Moreover, the price of fc-21 fighter can not reach the level of fourth generation fighter, which these countries can fully afford.

Of course, the most depressing one among these people is Jean Renault. In fact, what makes this executive of Dassault group, who has participated in the design of mirage 2000 fighter, beat his chest is not only the semi buried weapon rack, but the overall design concept of fc-21 fighter.

It's hard to say how good the craft and level of fc-21 fighters are. Let alone compared with gust, the craft level of any Western fighter is better than that of fc-21 fighter.

That's all. The key point is that in terms of details, the fc-21 fighter has not achieved complete stealth. For example, the inlet uses a shock parallel inlet similar to that of the F-22. However, except for the similar shape, there is no similarity in the interior.

After all, F-22 uses a bent kart inlet to realize radar stealth of engine blades; Fc-21 fighter did not do any treatment in this respect at all. It still used the straight through inlet commonly used by the third generation aircraft, so that Jean Renault could clearly see the metallic reflection of the engine's turbofan blades through the inlet.

Even if the intake port is so simple, the aeroengine used is not to mention two ordinary medium thrust turbofan engines. Without the so-called vectoring nozzle, it is impossible to have the so-called super maneuverability.

In other words, fc-21 fighter can normally mount all kinds of weapons and equipment under the wing like the third generation fighter, thus becoming a multi-purpose fighter with ground attack capability.

The details of the craft are not exquisite, and some of the design processing is too simple and direct. It's such a combat aircraft that can't be put on the table by taking out all the parts separately. It's amazing for Jean Renault to integrate them together.

Because fc-21 fighter focuses on the stealth aerodynamic shape.

It's no exaggeration to say that fc-21 fighter has only done one thing right, that is, the overall stealth aerodynamic layout. Even though some details are still lacking, or even slightly naive, the determination of this stealth aerodynamic layout is just like the sea god needle, which makes those imperfect details dull or even insignificant.

After all, the fc-21 fighter is positioned as a third and a half generation fighter rather than a real fourth generation fighter. It is very successful that it can carry two medium range bombs and two combat bombs, and the front radar cross section is only 0.45 square meters. If you want to have less than 0.1 square meters, you can buy the F-22 from the United States, and see if the Americans take care of you!

What's more, as a stepping stone to the battlefield, the low detectability of fc-21 fighter is enough for the regional power to cope with the real threats around. Because of this, the design of fc-21 fighter can be said to be very successful.

It not only has outstanding main performance, but also takes into account the actual demand. More importantly, it reduces the cost. It can be said that it is a product with high cost performance.

Of course, if this is done, Jean Renault's arrogant personality will not be so calm. As a senior aviation manufacturing executive, he knows very well that a combat aircraft will not be all right after it is formed, but needs continuous improvement and upgrading in order to finally reach the real design state.Obviously, fc-21 fighter is not a complete design state. The next improvement must be the focus of fc-21 fighter development, and this is what makes Renault afraid.

No matter how to change the gust fighter, it will last three and a half generations; If fc-21 fighter goes down along the core of stealth aerodynamic layout, what is it?

That's the real fourth generation machine!

Can't... can't... absolutely can't. how can a big country in the East have four generations of machines? Even their highly developed France doesn't have four generations of machines. A backward and ignorant big country in the East can't have four generations of machines, absolutely can't!

However, just as Jean Renault was watching fc-21 fighter fight between man and nature in Abu Dhabi, a fc-21 fighter suddenly cut through the air over a certain area in the central part of China. In the air force's ground to air missile command post 60 kilometers away, the head of the headquarters and a group of military leaders were staring at the bright spot on the radar screen, Can't help frowning, and then asked to the side of the ground to air missile unit leader: "caught it?"

The leader of the ground to air missile force squinted at the data on the radar and compared the situation on other detection equipment. He shook his head with an ugly face: "I didn't catch it completely."

"If you catch it, you will catch it. If you don't catch it, you won't catch it..." the head of the headquarters immediately said, "what do you mean you didn't catch it completely?"

"Is... Is... Is the fire control radar lock signal is not stable, the missile hit out!" The leader of the ground to air missile force hastened to explain.

"If we can't even shoot missiles, doesn't it mean that this set of air defense missile system is useless in front of stealth aircraft? There's no need to talk nonsense. This system will be redone. If it can't be improved, just dismount! " The head of the headquarters is calm and straightforward.

The leader of the ground to air missile force was surprised and quickly explained: "chief, this air defense missile system is..."

"Come on, don't explain!" As a result, without waiting for the leader of the surface to air missile force to finish what he said, he was directly interrupted by the head of the headquarters: "the real dragon II is just a low-end stealth aircraft, and your system can't catch it. What will you do if a real stealth aircraft like the F-22 comes one day? Waiting to be a lamb to be slaughtered? "
