Rebirth in 1989: Creating the Chinese Technology Empire

Chapter 243 Future air combat: Unmanned wingman is the development trend

"Teachers, I'm here to wish you happy new year..."

Looking at the technical bosses in the base, Xu Huasheng said with a smile, which made several technical bosses laugh.

"Let's not talk about New Year greetings for now. Come on, let's take a look at the drawings we made..."

An old man directly pulled Xu Li towards a room next to him, and this huge room was filled with carefully drawn drawings.During this time, these staff members have drawn up the specific design of the white swan.

When he arrived in the room, Xu Huasheng also looked at the design drawings curiously.Various designs are hung on the wall in order.

"Xiao Sheng, come and take a look and see where we can improve..."

The old man's words made Xu Huasheng look at these design drawings seriously. The design of the white swan is naturally very exquisite.This is the hard work of countless designers in the Soviet Union.

However, this does not mean that White Swan has no room for improvement, especially in Xu Huasheng's eyes.Because Xu Huasheng has design concepts and technologies in his head that are more than 40 years advanced than this era. Compared with the designers of White Swan, Xu Huasheng’s design concepts and technologies are more than 50 years ahead.

This kind of lead is very scary, just like cars, the most handsome and awesome sports car in everyone's eyes, but in Xu Huasheng's eyes, it is an extremely backward thing.

Although the upgrading of aircraft cannot be compared with that of cars, the development of aviation technology is also very fast.

Xu Huasheng looked at these design drawings. As long as Xu Huasheng looked at these design drawings carefully, the entire design drawing would be imprinted in his mind.It's like entering data directly into the brain database.

When this data entered Xu Huasheng's brain, Xu Huasheng's brain began to optimize the design based on the technical data in his brain.

Looking at Xu Huasheng who was looking at the pictures carefully, no one disturbed Xu Huasheng.

These old men had seen Xu Huasheng's abnormality, especially his terrifying memory and calculation ability.

It may be extremely difficult for them to memorize a book, but Xu Huasheng only needs to read it once to memorize everything in a book, including punctuation marks without any mistakes.

Xu Huasheng wrote down the design drawings one by one, whether it was the overall design drawing, the partial design drawing, or the design drawing of each part.

There are not only data charts, but also some specific data.For a fighter aircraft like the White Swan, every design is not redundant.All designs are designed according to the technology available.Using exquisite design to combine various technologies to create a combat machine that meets tactical indicators, this is a fighter jet.

I don't know how long it took, but after reading all the design drawings, Xu Huasheng withdrew his gaze.

"Teachers, I need to think about what these designs are like. But I think we still have a lot of room for improvement. Because some of the technologies we have now are more advanced than the Soviet Union. The development of technology has also made strategic long-range bombers Great changes have taken place in the way of fighting..."

Xu Huasheng and several old people discussed in the room.

Specific improvements were not discussed, but the positioning of future strategic bombers and the combat mode of strategic bombers were discussed.

As a long-range strategic bomber, the combat method of this kind of fighter in the future is almost not to carry bombs to other people's homes for bombing.

The main future attack method of this long-range bomber is to carry missiles for beyond-visual-range attacks.

It can mount anti-ship missiles to carry out saturation strikes on enemy warships, mount long-range guided missiles for strategic strikes, and even mount hypersonic weapons to carry out long-range strikes on important enemy targets.

"Teachers, the most important thing is that we need to reserve a location for the drone control system inside our strategic bomber..."

Xu Huasheng said seriously, and several old people were stunned when they heard this.

"Drone control system?"

An old man couldn't help but asked, Xu Huasheng nodded.

"Yes, it is the drone control system, or drone control platform. Dear teachers, with the development of drone technology, the role of drones will become more and more important in the future. And the air combat mode will also follow. Change, we have reserved the location of the drone control system to facilitate equipping our strategic bombers with unmanned wingmen in the future..."

Xu Huasheng began to tell the people in the room what an unmanned wingman is.

Unmanned wingman is also very simple to understand, it is an unmanned wingman.With the development of drone technology, the air combat model will gradually change in the future.

Whether it is a fighter or a bomber, it is no longer a simple weapon, but a platform or a command center.

For example, a stealth fighter and a group of stealth drones can directly form a strike group, and the drones can be classified according to their functions.

There are those who are responsible for investigation, there are those who are responsible for electronic interference, there are those who are responsible for offense, etc.

Take the J-20 as an example. In previous battles, several J-20s formed a formation to attack the enemy.

But after the development of drones, there is no need for several J-20s to form a formation together.Forming a formation with the J-20 are a large number of drones.

The reconnaissance drone flies at the front, transmitting the reconnaissance data back to the J-20, and the electronic jamming drone performs electronic jamming.Early warning drones provide a wider range of early warnings.

A group of drones carrying various missiles can be followed behind. Once an enemy is discovered, the J-20 can control a large number of drones to attack the enemy.

One drone may have a limited bomb load, but if there are a group of them, it will be terrifying.

Launch air-to-air missiles and directly hit a large area.

When an enemy missile hits the J-20, if it cannot escape, the drone can actively collide with the missile to protect the J-20.

From a plane to a platform, the combat effectiveness will be different.

In fact, the J-20 developed by China Future Research takes this into consideration, and the future two-seater version of the J-20 is derived from this.

The American F22 was designed relatively early and did not take this into consideration at all. In addition, the production line was also fooled, so the two-seat stealth fighter did not appear until the sixth generation aircraft.

Fighters can play this way, and bombers can do the same.

Strategic bombers can directly mount many drones and release the drones after reaching the predetermined airspace to protect their own safety.

At the same time, it can also carry a large number of drones to carry out bombing missions together.

Following Xu Huasheng's explanation, everyone swallowed their saliva.Darling, if that's the case, this would be awesome.

When the time comes, a bomber takes off, but it is not as simple as a fighter plane. There are a group of little guys behind it.Just like a tiger leading a pack of wolves, when encountering an enemy, the tiger directs the wolves to attack them directly. The scene is spectacular!
