Alcatel was immersed in the joy of reunion. Ever since he came back from the United States, he and Lisa have been together with Lisa. Recently, it has been a long time since I saw her. Alcatel looked at Lisa carefully. The years have not been beautiful in Lisa What marks are left on her face, Lisa is still a young and beautiful girl.
Alcatel had almost forgotten his business. At this moment, time seemed to have stopped. Lisa was in Alcatel's arms, and the two stared for a long time.
Then, the two hot lips came together.
On the deck.
"Haiyan No. 1 request to take off." At this time, the bow of the ship was almost full of aircraft. In the event that fighting may break out at any time, it takes time to bring the aircraft up from the hangar. On the deck, at any time. Can take off.
At this time, the benefits of the angled deck are even more demonstrated.
Utilizing the space of the bow, there are more than 50 carrier-based aircraft that can be on standby at any time. At the same time, the runway on the angled deck is still vacant, and fighters can take off at any time.
The dispatch efficiency is quite high. If you encounter a situation that requires fast take-off, as long as you keep flying on the angled deck, you can quickly free the bow of the ship and take off together.
Now, on the angled deck, one of the standby aircraft is a special aircraft.
From the appearance of this aircraft, it is very similar to the German Navy’s special HS129 redesigned attack aircraft. This special ground attack aircraft, after being carried on the ship, will also greatly improve the attack power of the aircraft carrier, especially It is to deal with the enemy fleet with strong air defense firepower. When using the FW190, it will face many dangers, and the HS129 can be protected by heavy armor.
However, the current HS129, which is about to take off, is different from the previous one. The most obvious difference is that in the middle of the fuselage surrounded by the landing gear on both sides, there is an extra bulge and placed under the fuselage. It's like a pot lid, and it's like an airplane is pregnant by itself.
At the same time, this HS129 attack aircraft is no longer a single-seater aircraft, tandem with two seats.
From this point of view, it looks like a torpedo machine. Only complicated torpedoes require multi-person settings.
As the armor protection was removed, the weight of the aircraft was greatly reduced, and two high-power propeller engines were added. At this time, the aircraft's take-off was not a big problem.
"You can take off. Pay attention to search for the route." The voice of the bridge came from the headset.
"Haiyan No. 1 received." The pilot said, pushing the throttle stick on his left side to the maximum. Amidst the roar of the engine, the strangely shaped aircraft began to roll on the deck.
The excellent power makes it not very dependent on the warship. The aircraft carrier did not turn into the headwind because of the release of his aircraft. It just maintained the maximum speed. At the end of the deck, Haiyan 1 has easily Pull it up.
"Radar warms up." At this time, the personnel in the rear cabin began to be nervously busy. When taking off, the engine had to work at full power. He could not ask for more power. Now, as the plane has taken off , He also began to operate the various instruments in front of him.
As the switches were toggled, the roar of the engine became louder, and bursts of black smoke came out. At the same time, the aircraft's climb performance began to decline.
In addition to powering the aircraft, the engines on both sides also drive high-power generators. At this time, a steady stream of electricity is flowing through thick cables to the giant pot cover under the feet of the two.
Germany has realized the transistorization of circuits, but in some areas, the role of electron tubes is still irreplaceable, such as the radar at their feet.
Yes, what they have now is a device that condenses the wisdom of countless scientific and technological workers, an early warning radar working in the S-band.
The head of Cyric clearly pointed out that future naval battles will be based on carrier-based aircraft. The era of battles between the enemy and us outside the line of sight, and battleship bombardment will soon pass.
Therefore, we must pay attention to the development of carrier-based aircraft and how to spot the enemy.
The bulky seaplane is not convenient for the fleet to carry, and the visual search by the carrier-based aircraft is very inefficient. Therefore, it is impatient to put the radar on the carrier-based aircraft and become a carrier-based early warning aircraft.
After arduous efforts, this first carrier-based aircraft already has actual combat capabilities. Now, it is following the entire fleet to act together. On the one hand, it continues to conduct actual combat tests, and on the other hand, it provides more and farther. Early warning capabilities.
There is a radar on the aircraft carrier, but due to the curvature of the earth, the radar can only detect high-altitude targets, and it is difficult to see clearly at sea level almost 20 to 30 nautical miles away.
If you go to sea with the ship, you will know that if you see the opposite ship from a distance, first is the mast and then the hull, because the earth is round. Cyric from later generations knows that in future attacks on aircraft carrier formations, almost all of them fly at ultra-low altitude by skimming the sea, and now they have certain technical capabilities.
Historically, the Americans installed AN/APS-20 radar and data transmission device on their TBM torpedo aircraft in 1944 a warning radar system composed of aircraft and simple search radar. .
This system has been working until after World War II, and it has also been exported to some countries, which shows that it has matured.
Now, it is normal for Germany to realize it several years in advance by relying on its advanced electronic capabilities.
At this time, Haiyan 1 had climbed to an altitude of 3,000 meters with difficulty, and the radar warm-up was almost done. The radar operator in the rear compartment said: "The warm-up has been completed and the radar has started."
As he toggled the switch, up to 30 kilowatts of electrical energy was continuously delivered to the radar below. The entire cockpit seemed to feel instantaneous heat, and current flowed through various circuits, and the diameter from below was more than 2 meters. On the antenna, the radiation goes out, and the radiation power is 1 kilowatt.
Yes, the energy conversion efficiency of radars in this era is very low. Most of the electric energy is eventually volatilized in the form of heat, and the cabin is like a steamer.
The electromagnetic waves are radiating downwards, scanning to the surface of the sea, and then reflecting back. The first few bright spots that we see are our own formations on the sea. When the early warning aircraft scans downwards, the biggest problem encountered is ground clutter, which will cause serious interference. Later generations have always had pulse Doppler technology and fixed wood delay technology to filter out the clutter. Have the ability to look down.
On the sea surface, there is no need to worry so much, because the sea surface is flat, so almost all early warning aircraft start with early warning at sea.
This advanced radar can have a detection range of more than 300 kilometers for large ships on the sea, and a detection range of more than 100 kilometers for aircraft flying at low altitudes. It can provide sufficient early warning time to ensure the safety of the aircraft carrier fleet.
