Chapter 377 Electronic Warfare Helicopter
377 electronic warfare helicopter
Su Qi expressed some of his thoughts and concepts on the design of electronic warfare jamming waveforms one by one.

After listening to Su Qi's words, Yang Liwei was very excited, as excited as he found a big baby, he grabbed Su Qi and said, "Xiao Su, come to me and do it, what conditions do you want, tell me!"

Zhou Yu hurried up to make a rescue: "Old Yang, it is impossible for Su Qi to come and do research with you. He is now the backbone of the Seventh Brigade. Without him, the amphibious reconnaissance brigade will not be able to function!"

"What should we do? It would be a pity not to use your knowledge for electronic warfare!" Yang Liwei was disappointed.

Su Qi hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "Old Yang, we would like to invite you to our Marine Corps to instruct the tactics of electronic warfare. We have researched several new things there, but we don't know if they can be used. Check? If you want, we can communicate with each other then."

Yang Liwei was taken aback, looked Su Qi up and down again, and then asked: "You took the lead again?"

"Yes, but we have no idea whether we can do that, so I would like to ask Mr. Yang to help you see?"

In fact, the electronic warfare of the Marine Corps is still at a very low-end level, and it only engages in brutal electromagnetic suppression. As for any tactical warfare, there is no such thing at all.

However, at this moment, in order to convince Yang Liwei, he can only talk nonsense, but it’s okay even if he is discovered, because Su Qi has been rewarded by the system, and he does know a lot of excellent electronic warfare tactics, but he didn’t show them. Just tried it.

Sure enough, Yang Liwei became excited when he heard Su Qi's words: "I can go over to help you take a look, but your place is too far away."

"Old Yang, we will reimburse you for the round-trip travel expenses!" Su Qi said hastily.

"It's not about the money, but it's too troublesome to go to your place. My time is very precious!"

Hearing this, Su Qi knew that he had to use his own trump card, so he quickly whispered in his ear: "Old Yang, our Marine Corps is conducting research on electronic warfare helicopters. I also want you to check this matter!"

Electronic warfare helicopter?

Hearing this, Yang Liwei widened his eyes suddenly. This time, he was really shocked.

Electronic warfare helicopters are crucial to enhancing the combat effectiveness of the Army or Marine Corps in the future. It can not only serve as an information hub to provide information support for other armed and transport helicopters in the Army Aviation, but also provide basic combat capabilities for synthetic brigades or even synthetic battalions. The unit provides tactical support in order to shorten the response time and efficiently complete the combat tasks assigned by the superior.

However, the research on electronic warfare helicopters is basically blank in China at present. There are not many researches on this thing in the country, but it happens that Yang Liwei is one of them.

Army aviation is the frontier main combat arm of the army with armed helicopters as its main combat equipment. It is the backbone force for the army to compete for low-altitude and ultra-low-altitude air supremacy and implement non-linear, non-contact all-area operations. It is an important mobile assault force on the modern land battlefield. , the helicopter group of the Marine Corps, too.

Electronic warfare helicopter is a platform used to perform tasks such as electronic support, electronic reconnaissance and electronic countermeasures. It uses its unique flight performance to complete electronic warfare tasks that other land, sea and air platforms, especially high-altitude and high-speed platforms, cannot complete.

For example, EH-60 is the platform of the U.S. Army's "Kaiding II" signal intelligence and communication countermeasure system. It participated in actual combat in the Gulf War, and carried out reconnaissance, positioning and interference on the communication command system of the Iraqi, Iraqi, and Iraqi troops. , to obtain the electromagnetic advantage of battlefield control.

In later generations, as far as Su Qi knows, the development of electronic helicopters in the Russian army is also impressive. In 2016, the Russian army was equipped with an improved Mi-8 electronic warfare helicopter of the new jammer Rychag-AV.

However, our army lags behind in this regard.

Su Qi was eloquent and nonsense again, making Yang Liwei stunned for a while.

After Su Qi finished speaking, Yang Liwei couldn't believe it: "Are you really engaged in electronic warfare helicopters?"

He still can't believe it.

Su Qi whispered and said mysteriously: "We will conduct a confrontation exercise with the Blue Army Brigade on the prairie in March next year. We want to defeat the Blue Army Brigade, so we tried various methods, and finally found that only electronic warfare is the only secret weapon , but the problem is that we don't have fixed-wing aircraft, so we can't use large electronic warfare aircraft for research, so we set our target on helicopters.

We have been working on it for a while now, and we have achieved some small results, but this is definitely not enough to support the exercise in March next year, so we are here to ask Mr. Yang for your help! "

Yang Liwei still couldn't believe it, and looked at Su Qi blankly.

Su Qi then resorted to another big move: "Old Yang, if you don't believe me, let me tell you about some troubles or problems we encountered when using helicopters for electronic warfare?"

"You said."

"First, as the low-altitude forerunner of the battlefield and the forward air command hub, the electronic warfare helicopter is always within the range of the enemy's artillery fire, and because of its importance, it is easier to become the target of the enemy's priority destruction. More importantly, the electronic warfare Combat helicopters are equipped with a lot of reconnaissance, processing and communication equipment, resulting in weak protection capabilities and are very easy to be shot down. Second, due to load limitations, it is difficult for helicopters to be equipped with advanced reconnaissance equipment or the reconnaissance method of equipment and equipment is too single, making it difficult to achieve technical and tactical In terms of performance indicators, the operation of various electronic devices consumes a lot of power, and the onboard power of helicopters is difficult to meet the requirements, which greatly reduces the combat capability of electronic warfare helicopters, making it difficult to form low-altitude advantages and gain the initiative on the battlefield.”

"Then did you think of any solution?" Yang Liwei asked.

"Thinking of a few things, after research, we feel that our electronic warfare helicopters need to make breakthroughs in the following aspects: First, after years of improvement and enhancement of the structural performance of the helicopter platform, the electronic warfare helicopters have improved in their load endurance capability. The U.S. military’s electronic warfare helicopters have undergone years of continuous development. For example, the EH-60’s load capacity has increased to more than one ton, and its battery life has also increased to 4.5 hours, which has significantly increased its combat performance; the Russian military has also passed Continuously improve its Mi-8 helicopters in order to increase the time in the air and the effective load. And the latest model helicopters of our army can also be put into use. As long as we replace them with the latest model helicopters, this problem can be solved.

Second, electronic warfare helicopters are often in various threatening environments when performing missions over concealed terrain. It is imperative to improve the performance of airborne survivability equipment, thereby improving battlefield survivability.Therefore, with the rapid development of electronic warfare helicopters today, well-equipped survival equipment is crucial to the protection of electronic warfare helicopters. For example, in the execution of combat missions, US military electronic warfare aircraft are equipped with infrared suppressors, chaff/tracer bombs and infrared jammers. It is also equipped with missile detectors, radar warning receivers, pulse and continuous wave jammers, etc. These warning and protective equipment have greatly improved its ability to deal with various threats, and its self-defense capabilities have been greatly improved.”

"After talking for a long time, what you mean is actually a sentence, you have to get a new helicopter!"

Before Su Qi finished speaking, Yang Liwei hit the nail on the head and pointed out the truth.

"You tried so hard to convince me, but in fact you just want me to help you get a new plane!" Yang Liwei said again surprisingly.

"." Su Qi opened his mouth and didn't know how to answer for a while!
He seems to be hiding it well.

Next to him, Zhou Yu winked at Su Qi: "How about it, let me say that Mr. Yang is not easy to fool, right? Just your little trick is really not enough for him!"

Ugh--

Su Qi sighed, and had to answer truthfully: "Yes, Mr. Yang, I do have this idea, but I also know that this is just my unilateral good wish, so... I dare not expect too much in this regard, my only One thing that can be grasped is that compared with other troops, we are really at the forefront in electronic warfare research. If Mr. Yang is willing to visit our Marine Corps, I swear, he will never let you down!"

Yang Liwei looked Su Qi up and down: "I'm sorry you don't dare to lie to me!" After a pause, he said again: "Okay, then I will go to your place to see in a few days, if you didn't lie to me, I will Just cooperate with you!"

"Thank you, Mr. Yang!"

"You don't have to thank me. If you want to thank me, just thank yourself. If it wasn't for your knowledge and experience, I wouldn't waste my time listening to you! Also, I didn't just promise you, everything, and everything." It depends on your performance later, OK?"
