However, this issue was quickly resolved after discussion.
The solution is actually to use quantity to make up for the lack of quality, but this time the "quantity" is not missiles but radar...
The method was proposed by Wang Xuexin, because he knew that modern missiles can track the trajectory of the missile all the way under the global positioning system and adjust its trajectory at any time. Nowadays, warships that use "high fire" to attack Japanese enemies must ensure that they fly more than 100 kilometers.
For accuracy, a similar effect must be achieved, that is, the position must be known during flight and the trajectory must be adjusted in time.
It’s just that there is no global positioning system at this time...how to achieve it?
Wang Xuexin said: "We can add several radar vehicles on the path that the missile may fly. For example, if our missile has to fly 100 kilometers, then two radar vehicles will be deployed on the left and right at the exact orbital position every 30 kilometers along the way.
Once the vehicle discovers that the missile has deviated from the track, it will immediately control it and make it return to the track!"
This method is obviously feasible. It actually divides the flight track into sections. In addition, the monitoring distance of the Eighth Route Army radar can reach 50 kilometers at this time... The radar successfully copied from Yingjiang could only monitor 30 kilometers.
, but changing the electron tube to a transistor not only reduced the size but also increased the detection range by 20 kilometers.
In fact, the Eighth Route Army can also produce radars with longer monitoring distances. All it needs is to increase the size and power.
But there is no need at this stage, because fifty kilometers can already meet most needs... For example, the Eighth Route Army's M30 howitzer has a range of only 12 kilometers, and the detection range of the artillery detection radar can reach 50 kilometers, which is enough, increasing the size and weight.
Mobility has no effect in increasing detection range.
Another example is that it is currently used to guide anti-ship missiles. Although it is not possible to complete the entire monitoring of 50 kilometers, it only needs to simply add a few more monitoring nodes in the middle... In principle, the radar detection range can reach 50 kilometers and a range of 100 kilometers.
Just adding one node on the way is enough.
However, in order to achieve a better "seamless connection" and especially worried about the insufficient radio control range, Wang Xuexin believes that it is still necessary to add three nodes to ensure that the missile can fly to its destination.
Professor Su said with some worry: "Captain, our battlefield is unknown, that is, the direction of the missile may be unknown. How can we prepare the radar vehicle on its path in advance?"
Professor Su is worthy of being a person who knows a lot about military affairs. He immediately saw the shortcomings of this guidance method.
What this means is that the enemy's warships can be maneuvered. For example, our military radar vehicles have been set up all the way to set up a path for anti-ship missiles to the northeast, but the Japanese warships appear in the southeast, so will the radar vehicles have to move?
Emergency location change?
But Wang Xuexin is not responsible for this.
Because the Eighth Route Army does not even have a coastal stronghold at this time. If it attacks Fengtian in the future, it will only have HLD as a target in its combat plan. If the Japanese warships do not appear, they will definitely appear in the waters near HLD... Other places are not the Eighth Route Army
The attack target, what are the Japanese warships doing there?
Therefore, the position of the Eighth Route Army and the enemy's warships is certain, at least in the battle of Fengtian.
The position of the warship is determined, and the path of the anti-ship missile is also determined, so the radar vehicle can be deployed in advance.
But of course, Wang Xuexin could not disclose the combat plan. He could only answer: "This is just our current approach. As for what Professor Su said... In the future, we can further change the size of the radar and move it to the aircraft. By then
Use aircraft to track, control and guide missiles, and there will be no problem!"
Everyone nodded in agreement. An airplane is different from a radar vehicle. Its speed is faster than a missile, so it can change its path at any time to adjust the direction of the anti-ship missile.
After the meeting, Wang Xuexin made a brief summary in his mind of the anti-ship missile developed by the Eighth Route Army at this time. He found that this anti-ship missile actually had many weaknesses.
Not only is the terminal passively guided by a laser, it also requires many nodes for control along the way. Once a certain node is attacked, the anti-ship missile may not be able to function.
Therefore, this anti-ship missile is actually very fragile. There are too many uncertain factors, and the final success rate of hitting the target is not high.
But the point is, this was during World War II. Even this kind of anti-ship missile with a low success rate, which Wang Xuexin regarded as "backward", "fragile" and "unreliable", was unique and even the most advanced in the world.
anti-ship missiles.
Therefore, Wang Xuexin believes that he should be content. After all, he has to eat one bite at a time and walk step by step. As he develops slowly, he will get better and better.
While the Eighth Route Army was making various preparations, the Japanese were not idle either.
As expected, the Japanese successfully copied the BF109 according to the information obtained by the Eighth Route Army. In order to keep it secret, they only conducted test flights at home and have not yet transferred to China.
This was Naosaburo Okabe's idea, because he knew that fighter planes were flying in the sky and it was difficult to keep them secret, especially since there were so many people all over China who had no secrets as long as they were training.
Therefore, he planned to wait until enough BF109s were produced and the pilots adapted to the fighter aircraft, then transfer them over in one go, and then immediately go to the battlefield to catch the Eighth Route Army by surprise.
Of course, Naosaburo Okabe didn't know that the Eighth Route Army had obtained information about BF109.
So this is quite difficult. The Eighth Route Army intelligence officers discovered the training in the Japanese homeland.
If it had not been discovered, the Eighth Route Army would have suffered heavy losses due to lack of preparation.
Naosaburo Okabe drew up a combat plan based on BF109.
Oshiro Sanji originally thought that Okabe Naosaburo would use BF109 to retake Chifeng and Duolun County, because these two places were strategically important places for the imperial army to leave the Greater Khingan Mountains, but Okabe Naosaburo did not think so.
"This attack is too passive!" Naosaburo Okabe pointed at the map and said: "If we only attack from the front, we will only push back the Eighth Route Army. But if we deploy BF109 in Beiping, Chengde and other places, they only need to cross
Nuruerhu Mountain can directly attack the supply line of the Eighth Route Army!"
"But your Excellency, General!" Ojoto Sanji said: "I heard that Mao Xiong has reached an agreement with the Eighth Route Army, and they may provide supplies to the Eighth Route Army in the future!"
Okabe Naosaburo's eyelids twitched. He really didn't want the furry bear to get involved in this battle, but he couldn't do anything about it now that the situation was like this!
"Then block the supply line of Mao Xiong!" Naosaburo Okabe said: "The west is a plain. As long as you control the air, you can control everything!"
