Super military empire

F-14 has huge hidden dangers!

This shocked several people.

"Is this true? Even if it is copied, our air force cannot be equipped?" The old man was also moved.

Seeing that China can have the most advanced fighter aircraft in the world, although the performance may be a little worse, it is definitely not too much. As long as such fighter aircraft are equipped with dozens of aircraft, it can greatly improve the national defense security of the Republic, especially on the northern border. .

On the Iranian battlefield, the performance of the F-14 fighter was quite good, although it also lost a lot.

"The equipment is OK, but it is still far from what we imagined. Because this fighter cannot perform super maneuvers at too high speed. In a war, it may be because the fighter is evading faster missiles. Super maneuvering caused the fighter to disintegrate... This time our test flight was not because of a problem with the engine, but a malfunction of the fighter itself. During high-speed maneuvering, a huge overload would cause some internal systems of the fighter to malfunction..." Liu Yi Nine explained immediately.

There are problems with the strength structure of the f-14 fighter. Even if the joints are thickened above the roots of the wings and the fuselage, there is no way to solve these problems.

This is due to the design aspects of the aerodynamic layout.

"Isn't that test pilot still awake?" Long Yaohua asked with a frown. If so, things would be really troublesome.

The Air Force must have a more advanced fighter plane, which is currently required by national defense.

"Awake. The situation he encountered on the fighter plane was also reported. During the operation, there was no alarm at the beginning. When doing the Super Cobra maneuver, the rotation of the fighter plane made the joystick a bit inflexible. According to Iranian Fighting The hero's introduction, most of the f-14 fighters lost by Iran were caused by the failure of the fighter itself, rather than being shot down by the French f1..." Liu Yijiu and others have already investigated.

After the test flight, he focused on the analysis of these aspects.

Fortunately, the test pilot Yin Qingyuan quickly recovered, and his body did not suffer much damage. The only thing was that the overload force was too great.

"If our air force is to be equipped with advanced fighters, it must have better performance. After all, our military expenditures are not enough to support us with too much equipment. And fighter pilots will not give up fighters to save their lives when they really encounter problems. Let us have to provide them with more reliable fighters...In order to cope with more enemies, they must have higher mobility, such as the Cobra maneuver, which is very useful when dodge missiles and when the enemies chasing from behind are locked; super Cobra maneuver, not only can dodge, but also in the air chase battle from the original disadvantaged position of being chased through this maneuver to avoid the enemy behind, go around behind the enemy fighter..." Liu Yijiu explained these fighters The role of maneuver tactics.

The Republican Air Force actually has higher requirements for fighter performance.

Because the Republic cannot be equipped with advanced fighters in large quantities like the United States and the Soviet Union.

The United States can equip a large number of advanced fighters because the United States has a huge economic base and its national fiscal deficit has reached trillions of dollars; the Soviet Union can equip it not because they have a good economic base, but the Soviets have always been in this regard. Regardless of the cost, they need to have more equipment than the United States or even the entire NATO alliance.

During World War II, Germany attacked the Soviet Union, and advanced Tiger tanks were flooded by a flood of Soviet t34 tanks.

Especially when the Soviet Minister of Defense Ustinov came to power, his requirement was that the weapons were easy to manufacture, and the troops could be quickly equipped on a large scale!

China cannot, the economy is not good, and the industrial base is not good.

"Currently on the northern border, Soviet fighters are getting more and more powerful in cross-border reconnaissance. The J-7 and J-8 simply cannot catch up with the MiG-25..."

"I know this. Even if the J-8II with pulse Doppler radar is installed, it cannot be compared with the Soviet MiG-29 and the Su-27 equipped with troops. It is impossible to step into the range of the third-generation fighter..." Liu Yijiu sighed.

The J-7 was originally a copy of the MiG-21, and the J-8 was also developed on the basis of the J-7.

The Soviet Union developed the MiG-23 and MiG-25 on the basis of the MiG-21, and now the MiG-29 has also come out.

Every new model has a very big improvement.

If you only talk about performance, compared with the Soviet MiG family, the J-7 and J-8 are much worse than the MiG-25, and it is even more impossible to achieve the high-altitude and high-speed performance of the MiG-25.

"But the body structure of the f-14, especially the connection between the wings and the fuselage, the fuselage skin, etc., cannot withstand too much overload. The internal hydraulic system will cause problems during high-speed maneuvers. The fly-by-wire system There will also be problems..."

F-14 was researched and produced by the Americans.

But the Iranians who played the F-14 best were the Iranians. They drove the F-14 to participate in too many actual combat; and the one who knew the F-14 best became the Chinese. The Americans would never have. A crazy person like Liu Yijiu asked the pilot to perform various dangerous actions during the experiment, and eventually discovered such a problem by accident.

"How about improving these problems?" The old man asked with a frown.

"Improvement is already in progress. The giant panda project is a modification of the f-14." Liu Yijiu introduced the status of the giant panda project.

The giant panda project completely combines the advantages of the Su-27 and the f-14, the aerodynamic layout completely surpasses the f-14, and the performance is much stronger than the Su-27.The performance of the turbofan-8, compared with the engine al-31 used in the Su-27, is also better.

Only, the avionics system and the radar system are almost the same.

At this point, mobility can make up for it.

"Although it is said that the manufacture of a new prototype has already started, when will the first flight be possible? Ground static pressure tests, wind tunnel tests, etc., all require constant time." Long Yaohua frowned and said."Those people won't give you much time."

For many people, introducing them from abroad can improve their national defense capabilities in a short period of time.

Even if the negotiation takes a very long time, you can directly buy the finished aircraft. As long as the pilot training is completed, you can take on the important task of national defense.

The domestic research and development is different, even if it has already flown for the first time, it takes a constant time to equip the troops.

"The timing problem is not that big. If it doesn't work, we will first equip a batch of f-14s. As long as we don't do too intense super maneuvers, there will be no problems." Liu Yijiu knew that Long Yaohua was worried. what.

The Americans offered to sell advanced light multi-role fighters such as the F-16 to China.

"Your imitation f-14 hasn't flew for the first time, right?" The old man asked Liu Yijiu with a wry smile.

"The engine problem has basically been solved now. The rest requires a lot of flight tests to demonstrate the performance of our engines. The problem is not too big for the test flight. After all, the test flight of a fighter plane is not an engine on an aerial platform. The performance test of each flight is very short..." Liu Yijiu said awkwardly.

Imitation of the F-14 fighter, the first flight was delayed time and time again.

At the beginning, because of design and manufacturing problems, but later, because of engine problems...

"Hurry up. Especially with the American contacts, you and the Commission for Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense will discuss with the Americans..." The old man said nothing.

Fighters are related to the national defense and security of a country. In modern warfare, the first is to fight for air supremacy.

Once there is no air supremacy, it will be crushed by enemy fighters, and the ground forces can advance quickly.

As for the introduction of technology or warplanes from the United States, the above has not been considered.

The introduction of technology has made all military leaders extremely tempted. Since the early 1970s, the Republic has been designing high-altitude and high-speed interceptors, but until now, no project has achieved breakthrough progress.

Although the F-14 imitation work of the Ninth Academy has made breakthrough progress, they are now told that there is a problem with the design of this fighter.

The Americans quickly replaced the f-14 with the f-15 and the f-16 after being heavily equipped with the f-14. This is not unreasonable.

"The Americans want to talk to me. It is estimated that they know about our imitating f-14 project and the specific situation of the Ninth Academy. They don't understand. The Americans really spare no effort to prevent the development of our defense technology... "Liu Yijiu said with a sigh.

He really didn't want to waste time with Americans.

"If you can't drag the Americans or solve this problem, the imported projects will definitely be out of our control, and ultimately it won't be a good thing for your projects." Long Yaohua softly reminded Liu Yijiu.

Liu Yijiu was helpless, "Then let the Americans come to Rongcheng to talk to me, will love come!"

If the Americans told Liu Yijiu that they exported the technology of a strategic bomber like the F-117 to China, he would definitely agree without hesitation!

Although the performance of the f-117 fighter is not too powerful, and has been shot down several, but this is the world's first stealth fighter.

For China, which has a backward industrial base and weak design capabilities, there is a stealth fighter for reference. At that time, a stealth fighter like the U.S. F-22 will be created. As long as the U.S. dares to go to the small pond in the South China Sea to take a bath, the fighter will be turned on. Go up with their aircraft carrier!
