"We plan to use the most advanced avionics system on it, such as airborne radar, which must be an active phased array radar." Mao continued to introduce it.

The H-6K and H-6J outside use flat-panel gap radars. After all, the craftsmanship of this kind of antenna has matured. It is completely cheap and the efficiency is not bad. However, a high-end weapon like a stealth bomber must be used.

More advanced.

"Moreover, considering the reliability issue, we proposed to the relevant units that the radar used by this bomber uses dual redundancy technology and consists of two complete radars. Each radar has its own independent antenna and transmitter.

, the receiver, signal processor, and the two radars can work alternately or together, which can greatly ensure the success rate of the mission."

Qin Tao sighed with emotion: "The Air Force has spent a lot of money."

One radar is expensive enough, but two radars are needed, and they can work independently. How much does it cost?

Look at the bombers outside. One flat-panel gap radar is enough, but here they actually use two phased array radars. It's a luxury. It's a luxury.

"This is also based on the plan of the American B2 bomber." Mr. Lin said: "This is the most elite strategic bombing force of the Air Force. If we fly all the way over and find that the radar is broken, wouldn't it be a delay? There must be something

A backup. However, the most expensive thing among them is the radar antenna. Two radar antennas are actually the same as one large radar antenna, so overall, it does not cost much more. If a bomber like ours is equipped with a flat plate gap

Radar, that’s not high-end enough.”

Qin Tao didn't continue talking and looked at the cockpit: "How many people are sitting in it."

The bomber outside can seat four people. This is also due to the need to perform missions. After all, after the bombers have a long range, they need to work with each other. The pilots have to be replaced when they are tired, and the navigators behind them must also be professional. Bombing

My hands also have to operate complex electronic equipment. On a long-distance flight, four people can still be companions.

What now?

How many people are in this more advanced bomber now?

"Two people are enough." Mao said out of context: "In order to meet the needs of long-distance flights, we have left a space behind the pilot's seat, which can fit a small toilet, and there is a small toilet on the other side.

A microwave oven for heating, pilots will definitely like it."

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this.

What should I do if the pilot is in a panic?

In the past, China would not have encountered this kind of situation, because the domestic fighter planes at that time had short legs and a range of only more than a thousand kilometers. They could fly for an hour or two and then land. It could be solved on the ground.

After the Su-27, it had not flown for a long time, and even caused abnormal wear and tear on the first half of the flight recorder tape.

Later, with the shift from homeland air defense to offensive defense, the air force's range became farther and farther, and it became necessary to fly in the air for a long time.

Early warning aircraft like the Air Police 2000 can have a bathroom on a passenger plane, which is very convenient, but there is no such thing on a small aircraft. Similar to a fighter cockpit, there is no choice at all, and the only choice is to use urine when performing long-distance missions.

Wet, even if Todoroki Six K and Todoroki J were outside, they had no choice but to hold it in.

When it comes to the stealth bomber in front of us, it won't work if we hold it in or wet it. According to Mr. Lin's requirements at the time, if the bomber can fly to the opposite side and come back, the round trip would take 20,000 kilometers, and it would not have to rely on aerial refueling.

accomplish.

This stealth bomber uses a unique four-engine layout, with four engines used for takeoff and two engines used for cruising in the middle to save fuel. However, missions often take more than ten or even twenty hours, making it inconvenient for the pilots.

There must be a toilet.

Don't even think about the bathroom, just have a simple toilet. And in order to save weight, it's either a flush toilet or an ordinary bucket with a seat. When you use it, put it in a bag. When you're done, tie the bag up and put it in the cabinet next to it.

Here, come down and take them away together.

"Isn't this too crude?" Everyone came to the iron shelf and looked down at the bomber and the small toilet inside. Wu Shengli couldn't help but sigh.

"Simple? This is much better than B2. B2 uses a stainless steel bowl."

It's not a stainless steel basin, but a stainless steel bowl! This stainless steel bowl is not a stainless steel basin, and you can tell just how small it is just by the name.

Hearing what Qin Tao said, everyone was curious: "Mr. Qin, how did you know?"

B2 was leaked very early, but that was only the appearance, no one knew what was going on inside.

How could Mr. Qin know that the pilots used stainless steel bowls?

"Listen to what others say." Qin Tao's answer was simple. This person could be Delano or someone else. In short, there are many ways for Qin Tao to obtain information. Besides, this would not involve leaking secrets.

"Microwave ovens are also necessary. You have to maintain your strength for a long flight." Old Lin brought the topic back: "It's been half an hour now. Come on, let's go eat."

"Eat? Old Lin, if you are hungry, go and eat first. We haven't seen enough yet." Wu Shengli waved his hand.

"Hey, I just made it clear."

"You said, we didn't refuse you. You go and eat first. By the way, I have asked the secretary to take Maotai to the cafeteria. You can drink as much as you want there. It doesn't matter if you drink it all." Wu

Shengli continued: "We've almost looked at the top, but we haven't looked inside yet. How much can be packed in this belly? Didn't Lao Lin say that more than 40 tons of bombs will be hung? Can it be hung well?"

How many tons of bombs can be hung is not only determined by the take-off capability, but also by the capacity of the bomb bay. If the volume of the bomb bay is not enough, you will not be able to hang as many bombs as you want.

"We use the traditional belly bomb bay." Mao Duanzhang introduced: "In order to maximize the loading of more missiles, we extended the length of the bomb bay to 7.5 meters. No longer missiles can be loaded in. It

There is a bomb bay on the left and right sides of the belly of the aircraft. When using the revolver pylon, the rotating pylon system placed in each bomb bay can mount 12 missiles, a total of 24 missiles. Active air-launched cruise missiles

It can all be stuffed in.”

This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The bomb bay of the B-2 bomber is only 6.25 meters long and uses a left-right layout. When it was first designed, it was only used to mount the B61

The bomb is a nuclear bomb weighing more than 300 kilograms. The yield is continuously adjustable between 3,000 tons and 340,000 tons. It is also a thermonuclear weapon. Each bomb bay of the B-2 can carry eight bombs. Of course,

It can carry a single B83 with a yield of 1 million tons. In short, when this type of bomber first appeared, it was intended to fight nuclear wars.

After it came out, the Red Empire had disintegrated, so the Americans improved the B-2's pylon, which can mount 80 230-kg MK82 unmanned navigation bombs at one time, and can also mount 16 900-kg GBUs.

-31 JDAM aerial bomb.

In order to have a longer range, this Dongfang bomber is larger, so the bomb bay is also elongated. The 7.5-meter-long bomb bay can carry more weapons, and there is still enough length and depth inside.

.

At this time, after hearing Mao Zhang's introduction, everyone was envious again. When the internal pylon is mounted, it can carry 24 cruise missiles. This capability is not available to the H-6J. The H-6J can carry cruise missiles.

At that time, it was mainly hung outside under the wing.

If 24 anti-ship missiles are inserted, it can destroy an aircraft carrier formation. Will the Navy also need a few more?

"You've seen everything you need to see, can you go?" Mr. Lin urged again.

"Don't worry, let's take a look at the built-in rack..."

After another half an hour, the people who were still lingering reluctantly left. Qin Tao looked at Mao Zhangzhang: "Old Mao, let's go and have a drink together!"

"No, I still have to keep an eye on the assembly."

"Maotai, the most expensive wine, a bottle is 8888, let's go!"

Mao swallowed his saliva in a broken voice, but still couldn't hold it back: "Okay, I'll go have dinner together, and I'll also give a report to the leaders by the way."

Talking about things at the wine table is an Eastern culture, and Mao was used to it.

Qin Tao took Mao Duanzhang and others to the cafeteria.

Factory 172 is very large and has several employee canteens, one of which has private rooms. At this time, a group of people came to this canteen with private rooms and continued to be in high spirits.

It's not important to eat or anything, we are still discussing. Fortunately, there are no people in the surrounding private rooms, and there are security guards outside. Even if we talk loudly, no one outside can hear us.

Qin Tao opened the wine bottle with a smile. Immediately, the fragrance of Moutai filled the whole room. Qin Tao first poured wine for Mr. Lin, then for his father-in-law, and then poured the third glass of wine for Mao Zhangzhang.

"How long did it take to build the prototype of our project?" Qin Tao handed over the wine glass and asked.

Mao Zhangzhang sniffed it, good wine!

"It will take more than half a year. Many accessories are not yet in place. When the prototype is built, various rolling experiments will have to be done. If everything goes well, it should be able to fly into the sky in a year." After Mao finished speaking, he still couldn't hold it back.

, raised his neck and drank all the wine into his mouth in one gulp.

"More than a year? It's still a long time to wait." Wu Shengli sighed: "However, the progress is fast enough. The Yankees may not be as fast as us in research and development."

"Yes, our aviation research and development capabilities have reached the first echelon in the world."

"Speaking of which, when we test flight in the future, can we fly farther?" Qin Tao said: "For example, fly to the opposite side, make a circle, and then fly back."

"Mr. Qin, what you are talking about, we have already flown over with our current stealth aircraft, and the radar over there can't see anything." said an officer present.

"The other side I'm talking about is not the other side of the strait, but the other side of the Pacific Ocean."

The officer immediately blushed.

Pattern, this is the pattern. With Mr. Qin's eyes, of course he will directly focus on things thousands of miles away, hundreds of kilometers away, and they have long been out of his sight.

Mr. Lin cheered up: "I think it will work. I will fly when the time comes!"

Although Mr. Lin has passed the retirement age for several years, he is still strong and strong. When he came to take charge of the stealth bomber project, he told his superiors that when it was developed, he would become a test pilot!

Later, I will use the excuse that the navigation system is out of order and fly over there to have a look and then fly back!

Mr. Lin's eyes were full of excitement. Mr. Qin was awesome and could always say something that interested him.

"Mr. Lin, you have to be careful." Qin Tao said: "This kind of navigation error and then accidentally flying over is a big deal. You may be punished after you come back, and you may never let it fly."

"Even if you are no longer allowed to fly after you come back, it's still worth it!" Mr. Lin was still in high spirits: "You still have to fly when you have to. Some things will have serious consequences if you do them, but if you don't do them, you will regret it for the rest of your life. I will

At this age, why should I worry about not being allowed to fly in the future?"

After he finished speaking, he looked at the people present: "I said these words in jest. If someone passes the news to my superiors, don't blame me for turning against them."

"Our navy will not interfere in your air force's affairs," Wu Shengli said on the spot.
