Chapter 680 Showing off our most advanced equipment
Even if the Air Force is flying in the sky, the leaders are watching from the ground, and the Second Artillery is no exception. Only the Navy and Navy equipment require leaders to go to sea before they can inspect them.
Now, the navy cannot display its advanced weapons. It can use this reason to ask for approval from superiors to create a maritime array, which would be even more spectacular!
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Sure enough, it would be beneficial to have Mr. Qin come to the meeting. Mr. Qin is so awesome and can always come up with some good ideas!
"Yes, we have aircraft carriers and Aegis battleships. It's time for us to ask our superiors to go to sea to review our equipment!" Wu Shengli nodded: "We must seize this opportunity, but let's continue to talk about our equipment.
Let’s form a land formation! Mr. Qin, do you have any good ideas?”
"Then I'll be blunt." Qin Tao said: "What we want to display is of course a big killer. In the first square, we will take out our navy's anti-ship ballistic missiles. How about it?"
"Mr. Qin, you probably don't know that this kind of missile is technically very difficult. So far, our relevant units are still developing it and it has not been officially equipped with our army."
This sentence is a euphemism. Qin Tao builds warships. Doesn't he know what kind of weapons warships can be equipped with now?
Mr. Qin was just so overjoyed that he spit out foam and forgot a lot of things.
"Yes, the development cycle of this kind of weapon is very long, but everyone, we have already tested it in 1996. Now in 1999, shouldn't we take it out? If we can't take it out, I'm afraid it will
Are you being laughed at?"
Weapons of this level must be cherished and cannot be taken out until the critical moment. Therefore, if it has not been displayed before, it is still in a state of high confidentiality and must not be displayed. It is not worth it for a false reputation.
But it was already made public in 1996. If it is not brought out now, people will be suspicious of it. Has this thing been equipped with the army?
Everyone had not thought of this level. At this time, they were all moved by Qin Tao's remarks. Everyone thought about the problem from different angles and made different decisions. At this time, Qin Tao's remarks
Everyone nodded.
"Yes, what Mr. Qin said makes sense."
"It's just that if it doesn't exist, it doesn't exist. Can we still change it?"
"Of course." Qin Tao said: "Since we want to display, we must display the most advanced weapons and equipment. In this regard, I have two ideas."
Don't worry about whether everyone accepts it or not, just say it first and then say it.
"First of all, the first one is an anti-ship ballistic missile that can use our ship-borne vertical launchers. The emergence of this missile means that our navy's ships can carry this missile, and multiple missiles can be deployed in our vertical launch silos.
pieces, and its long-range strike capabilities are first-rate.”
"Shipboard hair?" Everyone was impressed by Qin Tao's imagination.
Generally speaking, ballistic missiles are thick and large. Take the domestic Julang-1 and Julang-2, for example, with diameters of about 1.34 meters and 2 meters respectively. Later, they will develop to Julang-3, with diameters of about 1.34 meters and 2 meters respectively.
It has even been extended to 2.2 meters, and a special launch tube is required to launch this kind of missile.
Qin Tao said that it would be launched in a vertical launch silo. The current vertical launch device in China still uses a revolver modified from Lao Maozi's Reeve-M, or more vividly, briquettes. The only modification is
There is no need to turn, each cover can be opened, and the diameter of its launch tube is only about 0.6 meters. It is impossible to stuff a sea-based anti-ship ballistic missile into it.
"Yes, our relevant units are currently developing a new generation of hot and cold vertical launchers. The maximum diameter of this vertical launcher is 0.85 meters. Therefore, our relevant domestic institutions can completely target this launcher, specifically
Developing an anti-ship ballistic missile for use on shipboard vertical launchers will, of course, be smaller and have a shorter range, but it should be no problem at a distance of one thousand meters."
Technological breakthroughs come bit by bit and cannot be achieved overnight.
Currently, the 052c in production still uses honeycomb briquettes, while the 054 uses chocolate blocks, one cold emission and one thermal emission. Relevant domestic institutions have already started pre-research to produce what Qin Tao said.
A more advanced hot and cold vertical launch device. This device is more advanced and even surpasses the American mk41 vertical launcher!
The principle of this method is concentric launcher (ccl for short). The advantage of the thermal launcher is that the missile can be ignited directly and take off faster. However, launching in the launcher requires the design of a complex exhaust duct.
Otherwise, there will be no place for the high-temperature gas to vent.
The concentrically arranged inner and outer double-cylinder structure can solve this problem. The inner cylinder is still the storage, transportation and launch container of the missile. The annular space between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder forms the flame exhaust channel. In this way, the launcher does not need to design a special public
The gas channel can be directly deflected by the hemispherical bottom cover at the bottom of the inner barrel and discharged upward from the channel between the inner and outer barrels.
However, the circular shape still wastes space. Therefore, according to the plan proposed by Qin Tao, the inner cylinder is still circular, but the outer cylinder is designed to be rectangular, which facilitates layout and has a larger smoke exhaust space. At the same time, this
This arrangement is also convenient for accommodating more missiles.
The Navy's 052c service has solved the imminent regional air defense problem. However, this kind of warship still has flaws: it only carries one type of red flag nine missiles. This kind of missile is suitable for hitting long-distance targets, but it is a bit weak at close range.
It's a waste, and because the projectile is huge, its maneuverability is definitely not as good as that of a small missile.
Therefore, when a hot and cold launcher is developed in the future, not only the Hongqi-9 but also the Hongqi-16 can be inserted into it, and two bombs can also be inserted into one pit and two bombs.
Among rectangular launchers, the layout of this missile can be along the diagonal, which is the longest. This is where the rectangular launcher is more advanced than the cylindrical launcher. The available space will be larger.
Of course, in the future, when the Hongqi-16 becomes a polished rod bomb, or there are more advanced short-range missiles, it may still have four bombs in one pit, and the firepower density will be even greater. An advanced cruiser, no, a 10,000-ton class
The destroyer can mix and match various missiles to perform missions more conveniently.
And among the mixed missiles, of course there can also be such anti-ship ballistic missiles!
The diameter of the launcher is 850 mm, and a specialized anti-ship ballistic missile can be customized! Qin Tao has actually mentioned this proposal before. I don’t know if the navy has deployed it, maybe because of funding issues?
Qin Tao was thinking in his mind.
"To counterattack the enemy fleet at sea, a distance of one thousand meters is indeed enough. Our relevant units are currently conducting preliminary research on this task." Wu Shengli nodded: "Is there a second option?"
"If the first type is displayed, we will display it with our launch tube." Qin Tao continued to explain his idea: "If it is the second type, we will only display the missile. After all, the second type of missile is
The appearance will definitely shock the whole world.”
Exterior?
Everyone has become accustomed to Qin Tao's thinking. When Qin Tao said this, some people reacted: "Mr. Qin, are you talking about the supersonic aircraft like Feiqian Xuesen's ballistics?"
"That's right!" Qin Tao said excitedly: "The biggest feature of this missile is that its warhead is different. Its warhead is a long and flat streamlined body. It can glide and fly in the atmosphere, and the opponent cannot intercept it at all.
What the hell are you doing? You have to get the hell out of here in front of our waverider gliding aircraft."
These words were a bit vulgar. Zhao Ling frowned behind her, but no one present said anything. After all, this statement had been made public for a long time. It was first uploaded from a military forum and was later given to Zhang Zhong.
It was quoted, and now everyone knows it.
"Mr. Qin, we are also studying this kind of anti-ship ballistic missile, but again, it has not been developed yet." A leader said: "These projects you mentioned are very good, and... these should be counted.
In our navy, should we be considered second artillery?"
These ballistic missiles are beyond the scope of the navy.
It is not carried on the navy's equipment. Even if it is the navy's, such as submarine-launched ballistic missiles, if it is publicly displayed, it must be in the sequence of the second artillery. This kind of anti-ship ballistic missile is now a brand-new equipment.
, nothing to say for now.
"Whoever it is, let's report it first. If it can be mixed into the equipment of the Second Artillery, wouldn't we have another weapon that can be displayed?"
Using the second artillery quota to display the navy's weapons and equipment should not be wasted.
Although the quotas have been allocated, there will definitely be more applications from each branch of the military, and then superiors will select them.
The navy reported it, and the superiors selected him, and finally he was assigned to the second artillery piece. If this happened, it would be a very interesting thing.
Everyone smiled when they thought of this.
These are all things that everyone did not expect. Calling Qin Tao to come over and give advice has this advantage. At this time, everyone feels that they have gained a lot. Of course, whether this kind of equipment that has not yet been finalized can be selected by the leader
I don’t know yet, I might get scolded, but just be scolded and bear with it.
"Mr. Qin, continue."
"There is nothing new next." Qin Tao said: "Then it is the turn of the anti-ship missiles. Our YJ-12 missiles must occupy a square array."
The first two have not yet been finalized, but the YJ-12 is different.
When the Glorious-class cruiser was refitted, the development of the YJ-12 had not yet been completed. Therefore, after removing Lao Maozi's anti-ship missiles from both sides, some empty boxes were placed on top.
A year or two later, the YJ-12 was successfully developed and was even tested during an exercise. The successful development of this missile gave the Navy a sharp long sword that can be unsheathed at any time!
For a long time, the Eastern Navy has only relied on the YJ-81 anti-ship missile. This anti-ship missile with a range of 40 kilometers caused a sensation at the 1984 ceremony and was surprisingly called the Eastern Flying Fish by a group of Western military attachés.
, later it was replaced with a small turbojet engine, and its range was increased to 120 kilometers. It was exported as the C802 missile and became one of the few advanced equipment.
Later, the Navy had the YJ-83 and YJ-62. However, after all, these anti-ship missiles were subsonic and their range was not far enough, so they could only be used for temporary emergencies.
It was not until the emergence of the Eagle Strike-12 that the Navy finally had a trump card.
This is the first supersonic anti-ship missile developed in China on the basis of absorbing Sunburn missile technology. Compared with previous missiles, its biggest feature is its ability to fly at supersonic speeds.
From the appearance point of view, this missile is more slender, more similar to the appearance of an air-to-air missile, and is very smooth. At the same time, it also uses a special x-shaped four-inlet layout. The beveled rectangular inlet looks like
It is very simple. Later air-to-air missiles, such as Meteor, also use this layout. Its advantage is that it has a simple structure and high air intake efficiency, but the air intake efficiency drops rapidly at high angles of attack. Who will know about the shock cone?
The intake duct is exactly the opposite.
Compared with Lao Maozi's anti-ship missile, this one is more mature. Although its size is about the same, its range has been increased to 400 kilometers. It is currently the most important long-range strike weapon of the navy and the standard equipment of the new generation of destroyers.
This anti-ship missile will definitely be unveiled and will definitely be selected.
Therefore, Qin Tao simply talked about this kind of missile, and then everyone nodded. After passing it, they started talking about the next one.
"The next step is our YJ-18 anti-ship missile." Qin Tao said.
"Wait!" Wu Shengli was confused: "Taozi, where did the YJ-18 missile come from?"
Did you remember wrongly? Among our current weapons and equipment, we only have the Eagle Strike-12, which starts with ten.
This was said out loud, and Qin Tao was also a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I forgot that the Navy hasn't given it a number yet. 18 is an auspicious number, so I took it for granted. The one I'm talking about is the one we are developing.
The anti-ship missile combined with the Asia-Super superpower, as a supplement to the YJ-12.”
The YJ-12 is a supersonic anti-ship missile that uses a ramjet engine. In order to make this missile fly farther, it must increase its altitude. The dense atmosphere will bring great resistance to the flight of the YJ-12, making it difficult for the YJ-12 to fly further.
Its range is reduced.
The higher it flies, the easier it is to be discovered by the enemy. This YJ-12 missile can be discovered by the enemy from a distance and then respond. So, can we develop a more advanced anti-ship missile?
The kind that's not easily discovered by enemies?
The YJ-18 was proposed under this circumstance.
This missile is divided into three parts.
Behind the butt is a solid booster. After it comes out of the launch tube, the solid thruster pushes the missile to a certain speed, and then it will be thrown away. Then, the small engine behind the missile will ignite. According to the development of domestic military technology, it can
Is it a turbojet or a turbofan engine? Of course, if it is the latter, the range will definitely continue to increase a lot.
At this time, the missile is just like the subsonic Eagle Strike 8 series anti-ship missiles. It can fly over the sea at ultra-low altitudes from 200 kilometers to 400 kilometers. It is difficult to be detected during the whole process. After reaching the target, the jet behind it
The engine is thrown away, and the front body part becomes a new missile. This missile can use a solid rocket motor or a ramjet engine. In short, the missile enters a supersonic flight state and sprints towards the target. In this way, the target
It's hard to react.
Looking at its flight process, it is similar to a multi-stage launch vehicle. In fact, it is not a sub-super combination in the strict sense. The real sub-super combination is to switch between subsonic and supersonic speeds at any time as needed. But now
Technology can only achieve this level.
At this time, everyone was very embarrassed when they heard Qin Tao talking about this weapon.
"Mr. Qin, you did propose this kind of anti-ship missile at the beginning. However, our navy has limited funds and can only put limited funds into the YJ-12 project. At present, this kind of anti-ship missile combined with Asia-Super League,
It’s still in the pre-research stage.”
No matter when the time comes, there is never enough money to spend.
Qin Tao nodded, seeming to have had a premonition of this situation.
"It seems that this anti-ship missile will not be able to attend the ceremony in time. However, the YJ-12 is enough. However, if our navy has free hands, we must speed up research and development. The use of this anti-ship missile to us
It's also very big. It's not just an anti-ship, it can also be turned into a land-attack cruise missile in the future, and it can also be stuffed into our vertical launch system. By the way, I can help too."
"How can I help?"
"Get some club missiles from Lao Maozi." Qin Tao said, "With the samples, it will be easier for us to develop them."
In later generations, the appearance of the YJ-18 missile was very similar to the Club missile, so it was criticized by many people, saying that this missile was an imitation of the Club missile. If it was just a similar appearance, it would be fine. The attack modes of the two are also the same.
of: solid rocket motor boost, small jet engine cruise, and finally solid motor sprint.
However, the quality of the two missiles is different. Ah San, another user of the Club missile, has a deep understanding of it. He said that after the Club missile is launched, it is difficult to find the target. Although the accuracy of the Dongfang YJ-18 is confidential,
But there will never be such an omission.
Therefore, there is a big difference between the two.
At this time, hearing Qin Tao talk about this, Wu Shengli also became excited: "Are you planning to build a club missile? How?"
How to do it? There are many ways.
The Club missile has the same NATO nickname as always. It was named 3m-54 by Lao Maozi. It was developed by Lao Maozi's innovator design bureau. When it was finalized, the country had changed and the funding was not as good as before. Although Lao Maozi regarded this missile as
Treasures, but their pockets were flat, so they could only push it to the international market because it was difficult to carry on warships. They quickly developed a foreign trade submarine-launched model, which can be used on the exported Type 877 submarines and Type 636 submarines.
.
Therefore, formal purchasing is appropriate. If he wants to save some money, Qin Tao can also use some of his own methods and go to Lao Maozi's place again.
