Chapter 57 Theory of Energy Maneuvering in Modern Air Combat Conditions
57 Energy Maneuvering Theory in Modern Air Combat Conditions
In the two-plane air combat competition, there is no doubt that Fade Chen and Li Donghai had the last laugh!
Soon, the third round of competition, that is, the four-machine formation competition began.

This time, there was no suspense at all in the competition, Fade Chen and the others won the first place again.

After all, there is only one Li Cheng, and he is the only one who can use that kind of trick that is hard to guard against. Others at most imitate it, learn a four-faced image, but in the end, Fade Chen and the others caught the loophole and knocked it out.

So far, Fade Chen and his three brothers have won No. 1 in single-aircraft, double-aircraft, and four-aircraft formations respectively.

But there was not much sensation, because everyone nodded secretly after seeing this result, it should be like this, Fade Chen's strength has always been the best, it is normal for him to take No.1, it is not normal if he does not take that.

"Fade Chen, summarize your experience and have an exchange tonight."

The school leaders found Fade Chen and issued an order.

"Yes!"

After the leader left, Fade Chen took out the paper and pen, and began to write the experience and summary of this competition.

He gained a lot in this competition.

The biggest achievement is that he picked up a lot of attributes related to air combat ability through the attribute picking system. At this time, his high-speed maneuvering has reached a very high level, and his other maneuvering abilities are not at the rookie level before, but at least at the elementary level.

In addition, the biggest gain is that he has a deeper understanding of close-range air combat. Through practice, he has gained a deeper understanding. Coupled with the attributes he picked up, the two functions, combined with each other, his air combat The experience is richer.

His previous research on air combat was basically on paper, staying at the imaginary level, but this time, through several practices, large and small, he has a deeper understanding of close-range air combat, especially energy tactics. deep understanding.

Since the leader wants him to have an exchange, let's just do an exchange about energy tactics!
After thinking about it, Fade Chen picked up a pen and scribbled down a line of words in the notebook: "Theory of Energy Maneuvering under Modern Air Combat Conditions"

I wrote the title, but before I started to write anything else, the door of the dormitory opened with a creak, and Li Donghai and the others walked in.

Seeing that Fade Chen was writing something, Li Donghai and the others surrounded him. Everyone wanted to see what Fade Chen was writing.

"The theory of energy maneuvering under the conditions of modern air combat?" Li Donghai read those words, his eyes widened in an instant, and he was very surprised.

This title is too big. Not many teachers in the school dare to write this kind of thing. Fade Chen wants to write it?

He glanced up and down at Fade Chen.

Isn't this guy crazy?

How dare you, a little junior sixth grader, write something like this?
He was a little confused.

Qin Qingyu and Huang Haijun were also taken aback.

Huang Haijun spoke quickly and reminded: "Fade Chen, isn't your title too big, be careful when the teacher knocks on your forehead!"

"Yeah Fade Chen, why don't you think about it again. If my master sees it, he will definitely scold me for being whimsical, unrealistic, or taking pictures of myself!"

Fade Chen smiled and didn't say anything, he had his own thoughts.

Seeing this, Li Donghai stopped talking, and just greeted the other two brothers: "Let's go, let's go outside and don't disturb him."

The door was quickly closed, and peace and tranquility returned to the dormitory.

Fade Chen picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then picked up the pen and began to write the first word.

This topic is indeed too big, and to be honest, many faculty members at Air Force Aviation University are afraid to write it like this.

But he dared.

One is that he has been thinking, researching, writing, and reading, especially the last time he communicated with his master, and after receiving encouragement, his thinking deepened. The second is that he picked up Many attributes of others, experience and insights of others.

In a word, he is a systematic person, so awesome!
"About the energy maneuver theory, there are two opinions in modern academic circles. One is that it is outdated, especially under the conditions of beyond-visual-range air combat and stealth fighters. The energy maneuver theory has no basis for it. In addition, there is another They believe that even in the era of stealth fighters, the energy maneuver theory still has its scope of application, but the specific application form has changed!

Which of these two theories is more scientific?What makes more sense?
In my opinion, before discussing this issue, we must first clarify a question, what is the essence of air combat?In other words, what is the purpose of air combat?
What is the purpose of air combat?The purpose of air combat is to destroy and injure enemy air targets. To this end (under the existing weapon conditions, before energy weapons are put into practical use), the warhead of the anti-aircraft weapon system must be projected to the vicinity of the target, and the warhead can be used to kill.

Whether it is energy tactics, angle tactics, or whatever tactics, the ultimate goal is to enter the appropriate weapon system projection point, in other words, let the target enter the attackable area of ​​the own aircraft's weapon system.

After the weapon is fired, it is not the carrier aircraft that determines the final outcome, but the weapon system itself.

If we study the state of the machine at the moment of firing, we will find some interesting characteristics.If we compare the energy state of the own aircraft with the energy state of the target aircraft, due to the different energy tactics or angle tactics, we will have different results-the energy is higher or lower than the target.

But if we consider the energy state of the weapon system at the moment of departure, there is only one unique result: the energy consumed from the projected point to the predetermined collision point can be obtained. If the target is to be hit, the weapon's departure energy must be greater than This energy value (here does not consider electronic interference, etc.).

All maneuvers performed in air combat (whether energy tactics or angle tactics) are designed to ensure this.

Therefore, the final energy advantage does not refer to the stable energy state of the carrier aircraft within a period of time, but should refer to the energy difference between the energy of the weapon system and the target at the moment of weapon launch (the total energy of the bomb at the moment of aircraft-bullet separation - the flight process of the bomb) The energy consumed in the system, hereinafter referred to as "energy difference").

Only when the energy difference is positive is there an effective attack opportunity.The larger the positive energy difference, the larger the attack zone.vice versa.This statement is considered from the perspective of pure energy.However, if factors such as projectile dispersion and the minimum control speed of the missile are considered, only when the energy difference exceeds a certain positive value can the target be considered to have entered the attackable area of ​​its own weapon. "

Fade Chen wrote several pages eloquently.

After finishing writing, he checked it three times. After that, he walked out of the dormitory and found He Xiaoyao: "Master, this is the summary of the air battle I wrote. Please read it for me!"

He Xiaoyao reached out to take it and looked at it.

The moment he saw the title, the corner of his lips curled up in a playful arc.

His apprentice is really daring, dare to write about the energy maneuver theory under the conditions of modern air combat?Do you think you are a doctoral supervisor?
But soon, his pupils shrank suddenly, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious.

After reading what Fade Chen had written, he stood up and walked around the dormitory with his hands folded. After walking for a while, he raised his head and said, "Go back first!"

"Master, what about me?"

"You go back first."

"." Fade Chen hesitated, but in the end, he had no choice but to walk out of He Xiaoyao's apartment full of doubts.
