The hand point must be divided into about the left... About minutes after the US strategic reconnaissance satellite discovered the flash above the Kess-Lianjie area, the US-Turkish coalition in Maratia encountered the largest and most dense missile attack since the war started. Within less than 2 minutes, thousands of missiles landed on the positions of the US-Turkish coalition, and almost all important facilities and buildings exposed to the ground were wiped out in an instant.

Although calculated based on the explosion equivalent of the missile warhead, the amount of ammunition dropped by this round of missile attack is only equivalent to the rapid shooting of an artillery brigade within the old minutes, the missile attack is very concentrated, and most missiles use special warheads with amazing explosion power. Judging from the psychological attack on the officers and soldiers of the US-Turkey coalition, the effect of this round of missile attacks far exceeds any previous artillery attack.

After the missile attack ended, the ground attack began.

At this time, on the distant Arabian Sea, a group of large aircraft that did not look like combat aircraft were flying southwest under bright moonlight. In about a minute, the fleet will enter the Gulf of Aden from the north of Socotra Island and reach the airspace where the missiles were launched.

This is indeed a group of aircraft carrying out attack missions, but not fighters or bombers. It is a long-range patrol aircraft of the Republic's Navy Aviation. To be precise, except for the large aircraft that was improved by Ganji at the end of the aircraft group, the others are long-range patrol aircraft of the Navy Aviation.

There is no secret to the long-range patrol aircraft of the Navy Aviation Corps. Even countries with mediocre strength will have long-range patrol aircraft as long as they have maritime interests worth defending. Among the Republic's Naval Aviation Corps, long-range patrol aircraft is still the only large combat aircraft.

As we all know, at the beginning of the century, the Republic's Navy had an amazing air force.

In the fourth India-Pakistan War, the Republic's Naval Air Force sent fighters to participate in the war. In the East China Sea War, the Naval Air Force was the main force to participate in the war. In the Peninsula War, the Naval Air Force not only sent fighters to participate in the war, but also dispatched bombers and anti-submarine patrol aircraft. By the time of the Japanese War, the Naval Air Force reached its peak, with a scale equivalent to the air force, and it was another air force of the Republic. The so-called prosperity will lead to decline.

After the Japanese War, the Republic prepared for the Indian War and made large-scale adjustments to the military force structure. Naval aviation was not spared. Although the changes of the Naval aviation were not completed until after the war due to the southern Tibet conflict and the Indian War, the Naval aviation was dragged down until after the war, but like the reform plan formulated before the Indian War, the Naval aviation would mainly be ship-based aviation, and the shore-based aviation only retained a small number of large aircraft that could not be deployed on the aircraft carrier, namely patrol aircraft, tankers and commuter transport aircraft, including shore-based fighters, bombers, large early warning aircraft, large transport aircraft, etc., all of which were handed over to the Air Force.

It can be said that this is one of the most important things Xiang Yinghui did before leaving office.

If it were not for strict restrictions on the naval aviation, Lin Xiaolei would have been likely to throw the air force aside after becoming the chief of staff, so that the naval aviation would become an independent branch, and even give the treatment of the military branch. In fact, HNA's reforms are very similar to those of the Marine Corps. Everyone knows that Lin Xiaolei is a naval superiorist. If he presided over the national defense construction of the Republic, he would have to appropriately suppress the development space of the navy.

In any case, HNA became a victim of internal struggles in the army.

From another perspective, Xiang Yinghui did not harm HNA, but helped HNA a lot. As a military branch under the Navy, HNA does not have the power to independently declare budgets, so there is no foundation for independent development. To put it simply, if the stall is too wide, it will only make HNA lose its focus when it develops, and will always be able to follow the Air Force and cannot create its own characteristics. Only by finding the key points and grasping the key points can the value of HNA's existence be reflected.

After reducing the scale, HNA found its development direction.

While striving to build a world-class carrier-based aviation force, HNA regards long-range patrol aircraft as another focus.

Because the displacement of aircraft carriers is very limited, they can only carry small early warning aircraft at most, as well as heavy fighters with a take-off weight of less than 4 tons. Many small early warning aircraft are not as good as heavy fighters. Therefore, it is unlikely that large combat aircraft and support aircraft will be deployed on aircraft carriers. Practical combat has long proved that the defense capabilities of aircraft carrier combat groups are far less powerful than imagined, especially in anti-submarine combat. The anti-submarine network of aircraft carrier combat groups has serious loopholes, and they often pin their hopes on the silence of hope.

The attack submarine that FASHI Xuan maintains contact. As the performance of submarine-launched missiles continues to improve and the range of heavy torpedoes becomes longer and longer, in order to establish a solid enough anti-submarine barrier, the anti-submarine combat range must be extended outward, and it must rely on anti-submarine patrol aircraft that can perform anti-submarine missions hundreds of kilometers away from the aircraft carrier and obey the dispatch of anti-submarine commanders on the aircraft carrier. Obviously, such anti-submarine patrol aircraft will not be much smaller and will not be deployed on the aircraft carrier.

In addition to being an anti-submarine patrol aircraft, another important role of large patrol aircraft is to undertake the task of protecting territorial waters and exclusive economic zones in peacetime, that is, to carry out low-intensity military and paramilitary tasks to combat pirates, expel fishing boats from other countries, and to resist other countries' spy ships and spy aircraft.

Judging from daily use, large patrol aircraft have time to perform low-intensity military and paramilitary missions.

That's why, since the beginning of the 2nd century, countries around the world no longer developed large patrol aircraft separately, but improved on the basis of existing large aircraft. In addition, many Western countries, including the United States, have developed large patrol aircraft based on civil aviation passenger training. For example, the US series was improved on the basis of civil aviation passenger aircraft. In the Wushen era, the Republic's Navy also produced an anti-submarine patrol aircraft based on small old age, but its basic performance did not fully meet the tactical indicators proposed by the Navy, and the improvement was relatively difficult, so the Republic's Navy did not purchase in large quantities.

"The failure of the old did not have much impact on HNA's enthusiasm.

The main reason for the failure of Zhang Yijiu's maritime patrol aircraft, which was improved by Ganjiu, was the fully electric propulsion system. Because the development of the "charger" encountered difficulties, Yijiu's combat radius was greatly limited when performing tasks. The scope of combat use was also limited. In addition, Ganjiu is a tactical transport aircraft, and its range was very limited, so it naturally could not satisfy the navy. Although the use of advanced composite batteries could increase the range of Yijiu's cruising distance of thousands of kilometers, reaching or even exceeding the tactical indicators proposed by the navy, the price of the orbit-level composite batteries had not yet been reduced, and the cost of improvement was surprisingly high, so the navy naturally could not accept it.

After an old failure, HNA continued to bid.

At that time, Shanghai Aircraft Company came up with a plan to modify anti-submarine patrol aircraft with civil aviation passenger aircraft, and received support from many senior naval executives, including the then naval commander General Ying Changhui. Just like the US Navy's development of a name on the basis of one-centeredness, the development of anti-submarine patrol aircraft on the basis of civil aviation passenger aircraft can minimize the development, procurement and maintenance costs. Although the short-range civil aviation passenger aircraft that is most suitable for modification also has the same problems as Ganjiu, that is, the range is too short and the ability to move before the launch of the charger is very limited, the solution proposed by the flight flight is very simple. That is, to improve on the basis of large civil aviation passenger aircraft.

It can be said that it was this proposal that ruined this plan.

First of all, the price of large civil aviation passenger aircraft is too expensive, the modification cost is not much low, and the daily maintenance cost is not cheaper than that of tactical transport aircraft. This makes the efficiency cost advantage disappear. Secondly, large civil aviation aircraft have very high requirements for deployment sites, and must require runways close to the barn meters, complete supporting facilities, etc., and the Republic's Navy Aviation has few air stations with such superior conditions. Even if the Air Force bases in coastal areas, there are few places that can deploy such anti-submarine patrol aircraft. Finally, the low-altitude performance of large civil aviation aircraft is poor. It is difficult to fly smoothly at the altitude of the near-shore surface. Because when performing anti-submarine patrol missions, patrol aircraft not only need to use airborne radar, but also throw sonar buoys and anti-submarine torpedoes, so anti-submarine patrol aircraft must have sufficient low-altitude flight quality.

These three problems are the modification plan of shooting Zi Shangfei.

In fact, no country has converted large civil aviation passenger aircraft into anti-submarine patrol aircraft. In order to ensure the low-altitude flight quality of anti-submarine patrol aircraft, the United States made great changes to the aerodynamic appearance of the attack when renovating its name. The design workload alone is equivalent to redesigning an aircraft.

The road to developing anti-submarine patrol aircraft based on equipment and aircraft was blocked, and the Navy had to return to the old path.

The company is serving in the service of Ganzhan large strategic transport aircraft.

There is no doubt that it is a very powerful strategic transport aircraft. It not only has a long range and amazing load capacity, but also has a very spacious internal space, leaving enough redundant space for improvement. The problem is that Canchi has the same problems as large civil aviation passenger aircraft, namely, it is expensive to build, very high requirements for the deployment base, and poor low-altitude performance. Not to mention that HNA can't stand these performance problems, even the Air Force can't stand them, otherwise the thug Huan will be "batched" by the Republic Air Force to friendly countries after less than 20 years of service.

After several consecutive failures, HNA changed its focus, that is, it made every effort to develop a charger.

At that time, the Republic Air Force also invested a lot of effort in the charger, so HNA took a ride.

The situation did not change until the old service was served.

As the first "general strategic transport aircraft" developed by the Republic, 4 has the take-off and landing performance and low-altitude flight quality of tactical transport aircraft, as well as the load capacity and range of strategic transport aircraft.

It can be said that Ganjiu brought the transport aircraft to a new level, although Xiaobi basically solved these problems and became the well-deserved best transport aircraft in the world, otherwise the Republic Air Force would not only retain such transport aircraft.

Fortunately, HNA also put in a lot of effort in the development process of Ganda Pi.

The reason is very simple. At that time, HNA had a large-scale air transport force and ordered a batch of tax rewards before the cut. To be precise, it signed a "one" with the manufacturer.

Since HNA's scale must be reduced, make full use of existing resources.

Based on this idea, HNA decided to modify an anti-submarine patrol aircraft based on the thugs.

Affected by HNA's changes, it is actually based on the standard of comparing with the thugs. The new address of this site has been changed to: Sishan Ao plus 8 Si, please log in to read

No matter how I send it, HNA went to Chuan Dingt this time.

Because Xiaojiu is the first large transport aircraft that adopts a modular design method, the modification work is relatively simple. You only need to replace the transport module with a patrol aircraft module to convert the transport aircraft into a patrol aircraft. Of course, the horizontal blocks of the patrol aircraft must be designed separately and must be designed according to the task requirements. To put it simply, it is to replace the cargo holder on the transport aircraft to a cabin for loading sea search radar, abnormality detectors, sonar buoy distributors, anti-submarine torpedoes and deep-water bombs and other weapons and equipment, and add some cabins specially prepared for long-distance flights. This allows pilots to maintain strong energy while performing missions.

In general, the modification work is not complicated.

This is named "The Thug" Concao.

Since it is a military aircraft, it naturally has the characteristics of a military aircraft.

In fact, Zhang Yidaoshi Fan is a very distinctive long-range patrol aircraft. During the design, HNA proposed the requirement of multi-tasks, that is, it can perform different combat tasks by quickly replacing different mission modules. The versatility of each mission module must be above that, and after replacing the mission module, you only need to select different control modes in the aircraft's control system to take off to combat without additional testing. It can be said that this is a very high design requirement. Fortunately, at this time, the aircraft manufacturer in the Republic has mastered the essence of modular design and knows how to meet HNA's requirements.

It can even be said that it is the major achievements that must be achieved in modular design. The Ant-Yi-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-Too-T

In the words of the pilots of the HNA Patrol Force, their main task is to monitor fishing boats from other countries that appear in the waters around the Republic, as well as those American electronic reconnaissance ships that are often called spy ships. The most used weapon and equipment is the huge tweeter installed under the nose. The new address of this site has been changed to: Sishan Ao Plus 8 Si, please log in to read

Of course, as a combat aircraft, patrol aircraft can be converted into a combat aircraft at any time.

Modification is very simple. You only need to replace the corresponding task module.

When performing sea-making combat missions, long-range patrol aircraft transformed into anti-ship missile carriers. In fact, in addition to carrying covers or common missile pods, patrol aircraft also have to carry thugs to assist about kilometers. Some ultra-long-range anti-ship missiles have a range of even more than kilometers, so patrol aircraft do not need to carry sea-search radars. The data required for the entire attack operation is completely provided by the command center in the rear through military communications satellites.

Obviously, at this time, the purpose of the long-range patrol aircraft is very similar to that of the strategic bomber.

It is undeniable that the long-range patrol aircraft improved on the basis of pregnancy can carry more ammunition.

With 4 sets of guide pods, that is, when each pod is loaded with 6 anti-ship missiles in the revolver bay, the ant thug can attack targets at sea thousands of meters away without air charging. Because it is not possible to allow four engines to work alternately during cruise flight, the maximum combat radius reaches the amazing support for air charging, which takes into account the need for ultra-long-range combat, otherwise there will be no bathroom, kitchen, and a small bedroom that can accommodate Ming Pilots.

At this time, there were 6 pilots on each of the thugs who had gone out of the squad.

Under normal circumstances, two pilots can drive a thug. The concave has already flew in the vast South China Sea and the Indian Ocean for about the time when the thug will be released. The thug will be replaced with HNA's coat-coated activities in the South China Sea and the Western Pacific, performing maritime patrol missions that they cannot perform at all.

Why do we need to arrange this?” More than four pilots couldn’t understand.

They don’t need to figure it out, they just need to know that after arriving in the predetermined airspace and dropping missiles according to the instructions sent by the communication satellite, they can embark on a journey home.
