The Airbus test flight is over, and Dassault is about to debut. In the exhibition in France, the advantage of the host is very obvious, and it cannot always be a passenger plane, so it is urgent for fighter jets to appear. Representatives of several countries felt bored, and they did not come to develop their civil aviation industry. The reason why the French Air Show is attractive is not only because of its long history, but more importantly, new fighter jets appear every time.
The militaries of all countries, especially small and medium-sized countries, hope to learn about the world's most cutting-edge aviation technology through the French Air Show. Even if you don't have the funds to buy, understand that the situation isn't. In case the surrounding country buys a new fighter jet aggressively, it will be very passive if they don't understand it at all.
The Mirage 2000 Combat is a single-engine delta-wing multirole fighter jet of the French Air Force and the first French 4th-generation fighter jet.
The Mirage 2000 fighter jet was independently designed by France. It is the only delta-wing aircraft without front wings among the fourth-generation fighter jets. This is a unique design. France's unique approach in the development of fighter jets is not only reflected in the Mirage 2000 aircraft, but also in the formation and development of the entire Mirage series of aircraft.
The announcer said excitedly: "Phantom 2000 is equipped with one M53 engine, which is the world's unique mass-produced single-shaft turbofan engine. It has a simple structure and consists of 10 replaceable units, which is easy to maintain. The engine is in Acceleration is good in high-altitude supersonic and low-altitude subsonic conditions; the flight envelope has a wide range, from very low flight speeds to unlimited throttle position at M2.2."
"The Phantom 2000 aircraft can be mounted with a wide variety of weapons, a large number and strong damage power. There are 9 external hardpoints on the aircraft, with a total external hanging capacity of about 6,000 kilograms. In addition, the Mirage 2000 aircraft is equipped with two 30mm caliber "Defa" The 554 cannon has a total reserve of 500 rounds of ammunition. The firing rate of this cannon has 2 gears: 1200 rounds/minute or 1800 rounds/minute; the initial velocity of the shell is 815 meters/minute; the effective range is 1000 meters."
"The Mirage 2000 has good flight performance, with a maximum flight speed of M2.2 and a maximum allowable surface speed of 1480 km/h when the aircraft has no external hangers; Hours, still have the ability to control the stick and rudder."
Bao Zixuan is basically familiar with these data, but it brings many surprises to other buyers. At present, only two countries in the world have the fourth-generation aircraft production technology and have already entered service. But whether it is from the Soviet Union or the United States, there are many restrictions on purchasing fighter jets. France is much better in this regard, as long as the money is in place, everything is negotiable.
Bao Zixuan knew about this fighter, not just because of its performance and record. It is more because this fighter has sold 60 aircraft to the Gulf, which is also the reason why the relationship between China and France has dropped to a freezing point. But at this time, the Black Cloud Group has no ability to prevent this from happening, and can only find a way to produce a more advanced aircraft to suppress it.
Sure enough, just after the test flight of the aircraft, the representative of Wanwan came to the hangar where Dassault Company is located. Even if he is upset, he doesn't say much.
Next, Boeing took out their new Boeing 767 aircraft, whose overall performance is very close to that of the A310. At this time, the world's major civil aviation companies are already hesitating, which product is more beneficial and cost-effective to purchase. At first it was Airbus’s turn to be unhappy. Customers who had already negotiated about the same, now began to consult Boeing. The cooked duck just flew like this, it's no wonder that the mood is good.
Not to mention the competition between Airbus and Boeing, there is another explosive aircraft to be unveiled.
The F/A-18 fighter attack aircraft, nicknamed: Hornet; is a U.S. Navy supersonic jet third-generation fighter.
The F/A-18 fighter attack aircraft adopts a single-seat/tandem two-seat swept-wing aerodynamic layout and is equipped with two turbofan engines. It has excellent air, ground and sea attack capabilities. As the most important carrier-based aircraft of the U.S. Navy, it has a wide range of uses, both for maritime air defense and ground attack.
Regarding the generation of fighter jets, different countries have different calculation methods. The French fourth-generation fighter jets are equivalent to the third-generation fighter jets of the United States and the Soviet Union. It cannot be said that the French fourth-generation fighter jets are more advanced than the third-generation fighter jets of the United States.
The announcer said: "The F/A-18 fighter-attack aircraft is equipped with two F404-GE-400 low-bypass ratio turbofan engines developed by General Electric Company, with a single afterburner thrust of 7,200 kilograms, an engine weight of 983 kilograms, and a thrust of 983 kilograms. Compared with 7.4, the air intake adopts fixed inclined plate design and is located on both sides of the fuselage under the wing root. The aircraft can carry 4990 kg of fuel inside, and can also hang three auxiliary fuel tanks. The total fuel capacity of the aircraft can reach 7979 kg. The range exceeds 2300 kilometers, and the combat radius exceeds 700 kilometers.”
"The Hornet has nine weapon hardpoints—two on the wingtip, four under the wing, two on the sidewall of the air intake, and one on the centerline of the belly. The aircraft retains the YF-17's wingtip 'Sidewinder' empty. Missile pylons and nose cannon."
Bao Zixuan knew that this was definitely a hit, and sold nearly 1,500 units in total. You must know that this is a fighter jet, and this sales volume is very incredible.
In fact, there is another problem that makes Bao Zixuan very incomprehensible. McDonnell Douglas has such a popular aircraft; it can still be acquired by Boeing, and I don’t know what the operators think.
As soon as the F/A-18 Hornet fighter was unveiled, it attracted the attention of military procurement personnel from various countries. This fighter is much stronger than the Dassault Mirage 2000, and it seems that the American technology is more advanced.
The emergence of Boeing and McDonnell Douglas has put Airbus and Dassault under great pressure. But to compete with American companies, it's fine if they don't bully them, how can they dare to do anything. The best result is fair competition, but dare not take extreme actions.
Two or two American companies have already appeared, and the Soviets are of course not to be outdone.
The Sukhoi Design Bureau was established in 1939 and is headquartered in Moscow. The founder is Sukhoi, the world's most famous aircraft designer.
The old man has been the chief designer for 33 years, and has presided over the design of about 50 new types of aircraft, of which 34 have been tested, making important contributions to the development of the Soviet aviation industry. In recognition of his achievements, the Soviet government and relevant departments have awarded him the title of Hero of Socialist Labor twice, the Order of Lenin three times, the Order of the October Revolution, the Order of the Red Banner of Labor, the Order of the Red Star and the Tupolev Gold Medal each once, and many more. bonus. It is a pity that he passed away in 1975, but the name of the design bureau has not changed.
In January 1983, Simonov served as the third chief designer of the Sukhoi Design Bureau until his death on March 4, 2011. Simonov is also an old man of the Sukhoi Design Bureau, where he has been the deputy chief designer since 1970. At that time, he was mainly responsible for the development, test flight and improvement of the Su-27. He developed and implemented a series of unique test and scientific research programs, and did a lot of work in the comprehensive optimization of flight test work.
Of course, the most important aircraft design bureau in the Soviet Union will come to the exhibition, and in order to deter opponents. They also took out their best plane, and the most beautiful plane in the world, the Su-27.
Su-27 fighter, NATO code name: Flanker; is a single-seat, twin-engine, all-weather air superiority heavy fighter developed by the Soviet Union's Sukhoi Design Bureau. It belongs to the third generation of fighters. The main tasks are homeland air defense, escort, maritime patrol, etc.
The announcer said: "The Su-27 fighter jet adopts wing-body fusion technology, cantilever-type mid-wing, with smooth curved and forward-extending side strips outside the wing root, double vertical tails in a normal layout, and wedge-shaped air intakes are located in the wing body. The front and bottom of the fusion body have good aerodynamic performance. There are grid-type auxiliary doors at the bottom and side walls of the intake duct to prevent foreign objects from being inhaled during take-off and landing All-metal semi-monocoque body, nose Slightly drooping, using a large number of titanium alloys, traditional three-spar wing, four-degree fly-by-wire control system, no mechanical backup, statically unstable design."
"The Su-27 fighter has a maximum level flight speed of about 2,500 kilometers per hour; the combat radius is over 1,700 kilometers, and the practical ceiling is 18,300 meters; it can be operated at the third-level airfield of the front-line air force."
"The fixed weapon is a 30mmGSh-30-1 cannon. The pylon can mount AA-8, AA-9, AA-10, AA-11 and other air-to-air missiles, various types of air-to-ground missiles, various bombs and rocket launchers. nest."
Hearing the powerful performance of the plane made the Americans break out in a cold sweat. The most important thing is that this fighter is so eye-catching that people can remember it at a glance.
After the Su-27 fighter accelerated for a short distance, it flew up in a single lift. Let people see his powerful thrust and reasonable aerodynamic layout.
Then there was a dazzling operation, and people were addicted to it. But to Bao Zixuan's disappointment, the pilot did not perform the Cobra maneuver. It may be because of the pilot's problem, you must know that not every pilot has the guts of Pugachev. It may also be because the engine has not been improved and the thrust is insufficient. But these are also the stunned military procurement personnel of various countries, and they all have the idea of buying this fighter.
On the day of the air show, the Su-27 test flight was over, and there was nothing to watch, and the focus was already on this aircraft. It made the staff of Sukhoi Design Bureau very excited, and this time the bonus is absolutely indispensable.
