"Yes, this yun-33 is indeed the first real early warning aircraft equipped by the air force!" After hearing the three words "early warning aircraft" from many army leaders, chief of staff Feng, who was explaining, could not help but smile. He directly turned the focus to the more familiar early warning aircraft, and then raised his voice. He said with pride: "please note that the words I use are real early warning aircraft, not the so-called radar warning aircraft used in our army before!"
Before the voice was heard, chief Feng pressed the switch in his hand, the slide player started immediately, and a large clear picture of the yun-33 early warning plane appeared on the screen.
At this time, people found that although the layout of yun-33 early warning aircraft roughly followed the shape of trj-700 regional airliner, it had its own unique features in many details.
For example, in addition to the balance beam above, the nose of waiyun-33 early warning aircraft is not the same as that of the civil aviation model. It looks more round and has a larger diameter. On the plane, it has the same lightning protection stringer and black coating as that of the radome of a fighter. It is not difficult to imagine that a radar must be installed in this area.
The tail of the corresponding body also extends a small section backward, which is also wrapped with a radar, coupled with the shark fin like antenna stabilizer wing on the T-shaped vertical tail to solve the problem of the back balance beam interfering with the overall aerodynamic layout, as well as the dense antennas on the side and below of the body
Basically, in addition to two engines attached to the rear of the aircraft, we can see the shadow of the trj-700 regional airliner. All the layout has been changed so much that even my mother can hardly recognize it.
But it is also because of this that this aircraft will break through the previous radar warning aircraft modified by MiG-31 fighter and trj-500 regional airliner.
In terms of search distance, search range, and command and guidance, the yun-33 early warning aircraft is far more than the trj-500 radar warning aircraft several times or even ten times.
Because of this, the command center of the golden helmet unit is not in Xue Weidong's Air Force Base at all, but on the yun-33 early warning aircraft No. 68732.
However, before many army leaders on the scene had digested the profound meaning of chief of staff Feng's "real early warning aircraft", chief of staff Feng's next words made everyone on the scene feel shocked again. He suddenly pressed the switch in his hand, and a detailed performance table was presented to everyone.
Then, chief of staff Feng pointed to the screen with the indicator stick in his hand: "please see, this is a detailed list of the basic technical parameters, take-off weight and flight height of our yun-33 early warning aircraft. I won't go into too much detail. Basically, it is not different from the trj-700 regional passenger aircraft. Now I will focus on the zbf-219 carried by the yun-33 early warning aircraft
Airborne early warning radar system.
The radar system uses the latest high-performance chip module developed and produced by China Tengfei, which makes the radar smaller, lower actual power, higher automation, longer detection distance and more accurate than the same product.
Thanks to the successful application of this radar, the yun-33 early warning aircraft can continuously search a wide area of 500 kilometers around.
The detection distance of targets of the size of the bomber is 450 km.
The detection distance of targets of fighter size is 350 km.
The detection range of cruise missile is 120 km.
At the same time, yun-33 early warning aircraft can also command and guide at least eight batches of our fighter formations to intercept and attack the incoming targets.
Of course, the yun-33 early warning aircraft is not without shortcomings. The biggest disadvantage is that it is too expensive. The unit price of a yun-33 early warning aircraft is as high as 1.2 billion yuan.
However, this has not yet reached the record of the air force's equipment purchase price so far, because the purchase cost of yun-34, the brother of yun-33 early warning aircraft and the joint ground attack radar command aircraft refitted from trj-700 regional airliner, has reached 1.5 billion yuan, which is the most expensive aircraft purchased by the air force so far.
Some people may ask, is such an expensive plane available to the air force? After all, we don't have to copy the army of a big country outside the territory everywhere in our operations! "
At this point, chief of staff Feng pause, immediately press the switch button in his hand, and the slide player starts again. A topographic map of a certain area along the southeast coast with the background of yun-34 command plane appeared on the curtain.
Immediately, chief of staff Feng's indicator wand gently pointed up twice, and said again in a serious tone: "I don't think it matters whether other special support aircraft have it or not, but I really think this yun-34 command aircraft should be equipped no matter how much it costs.
The reason is simple. This place... "
As he said that, chief of staff Feng pointed out to a certain area twice: "there are not only many ground fortifications, but also countless underground bunkers. The traditional means of investigation can not cover all the underground bunkers at all.
But our yun-34 command plane can do it! "
Before the voice was heard, chief Feng's switch was pressed again, and a clear picture of yun-34 appeared on the screen.
Different from Yu yun-32 and yun-33, yun-34 is more similar to trj-700 regional airliner on the whole. If it is not for the military emblem and number on it and the words of the Chinese air force, no one will believe that it is a high-end business aircraft with fine workmanship, because the overall force is there.
The only difference from the civil aviation model is the eight meter long radome under the belly of the aircraft.
Make this aircraft instantly make people have a kind of unspeakable mystery.
At this time, staff chief Feng's indicator stick was on the radome, which almost covered the whole belly of the aircraft: "the reason why it is indispensable is that yun-34 is equipped with this set of zbf-119 synthetic aperture radar. Its important function is not only to accurately determine the position of ground targets, but also to accurately detect underground works,
After nearly one year's actual test and verification, the yun-34 command plane equipped with zbf-119 SAR accurately finds the fixed target 50 meters underground at an altitude of 10000 meters, and then forms the strike data through the computer, which is transmitted to the ground attack formation through the data link, Then the fbc-1a fighter bomber or Su-30MKK fighter bomber carries special ground penetrating ammunition, so as to complete the accurate sniping of such high-value targets
With these words, the leaders of the troops on the scene were completely shocked. The complexity of a certain area along the southeast coast was clear to all of them, especially those underground fixed fortifications. Although the domestic troops had such sharp weapons as ground penetrating bombs, the determination of targets was a headache.
Once something happens, it can only be found temporarily and solved temporarily, explaining that the troops are bound to bear no small loss.
Now, the yun-34 command plane equipped with zbf-119 SAR has a pair of eyes, which makes the hiding hamsters have no way to escape. This is of great significance!
