Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

"Everyone, today is a good day for our air force..."

Chengfei, an old man in an air force uniform, had a ruddy face and even a trace of tears in his eyes.

Today is a good day, indeed a good day.

Because today, the J-10 fighter jet was officially finalized and mass-produced. This speed is much faster than previously expected.

And the delivery time is ten years earlier than in the original time and space.

In addition to the time being ten years earlier, the combat performance of the J-10 is now even more terrifying, even more terrifying than the J-10C version in the original time and space.

Because when designing this fighter, many things were taken into consideration. In other words, the foundation of the new J-10 is much stronger than the foundation of the J-10 in the original time and space.

This foundation is much stronger than the F16 in the United States, with strong engine power, strong mounting capacity, awesome radar, awesome electronic system, and even awesome helmets.

Many of the technologies of this fighter are Xu Huasheng's cheating technologies.

For example, vector engines, active phased array radars, digital cockpits, advanced combat helmets, advanced electronic warfare kits, etc.

All these things combined together have created this killer weapon.

Now this fighter has finally been finalized and mass-produced. The performance of the mass-produced J-10 fighter is a small monster, not to mention in this era, even in thirty years.

The maximum speed is 2376 kilometers per hour, the practical ceiling is 21,324 meters, the range is 4676 kilometers, the bomb load is 9700 kilograms, and it has 12 weapon hanging points.

The radar uses active phased array radar, or directly open gallium nitride technology, 2876 TR components, 410 kilometers of air detection distance, and can track 12 targets at the same time.

For a fighter, if the performance of the radar is doubled, the overall combat effectiveness will be increased fivefold. Compared with the radar on the current F16, the radar of the current No. 10 aircraft is at least two generations higher than the radar technology currently used by the United States.

The US F16 still uses the AN/APG-66 pulse Doppler radar, which has a detection range of less than 100 kilometers. This gap is too big, and the design is not the same era.

The design of the F16 is still in the era of fighter dogfighting. The main mode of air combat is to lock the opponent with radar after close contact with the fighter, and then guide the air-to-air missile to hit the opponent.

The combat idea of ​​the J-10 is to detect the opponent at a long distance, and then launch a long-range air-to-air missile to kill the opponent hundreds of kilometers away. The combat ideas are different.

In addition to the abnormal performance of the fighter itself, China has opened up in terms of air-to-air missiles. Xu Huasheng has already brought out a lot of missile technology.

The latest research of China's PL-10 air-to-air missile is Xu Huasheng's cheating thing. He directly took out the technology of China's PL-15. This is an awesome fourth-generation air-to-air missile. The fourth-generation air-to-air missile AIM-9X of the United States only started bidding in 1994 and was officially equipped to the troops in 2003.

The performance of this air-to-air missile is very abnormal, with a range of 180 kilometers. It uses a dual-pulse solid rocket engine. This technology is very powerful. The air-to-air missile using a dual-pulse engine has an inescapable range.

For air-to-air missiles using traditional engines, if the range is 100 kilometers, then the inescapable range is about 50 kilometers.

This technology is the first technology adopted by China in the future. The United States has not developed this technology until 2030.

At the same time, this missile has active radar guidance technology, dual data link technology, and very strong anti-interference ability.

The maximum attack speed is as high as Mach 4.4, and the fighter jets can't escape at all.

In a word, the performance is super powerful. As long as the fighter jets of this era are locked by this missile, it is a must-kill situation and can't escape.

Compare it with the AIM-9X air-to-air missile equipped by the US military in 2003. This missile uses a traditional solid rocket engine and has a range of only 26 kilometers. It is not a product of the same era as the PL-10 equipped on the current No. 10 aircraft.

If the current Chinese aircraft No. 10 carries PL-10 and fights with American fighters in an air battle, it can beat the United States to pieces.

Because the air-to-air missiles used by the United States are still third-generation air-to-air missiles, or infrared-guided air-to-air missiles, the technology gap is too big.

If it is a single air battle, the J-10 has 12 weapon racks and can directly hang 12 PL-10s.

You can imagine if the J-10 and the current American F16 are facing each other. The J-10 can detect the F16 from more than 400 kilometers away, while the F16's radar detection range is less than 100 kilometers, it is definitelyThe J-10 is not visible.

When the F16 and the J-10 are 180 kilometers apart, the J-10 directly launches the PL-10 air-to-air missile, turns around and runs away after the launch, hanging the F16 outside the detection range of the F16 radar, and providing various data to the PL-10.

At this moment, the F16 has not found the J-10 yet and is still rushing forward. As a result, it soon encounters the flying PL-10. After the PL finds the F16, it directly accelerates to Mach 4.4. At that time, the F16 has no choice but to wait for death.

To put it bluntly, a J-10 can directly kill 12 F16s as long as it is well operated. This is the gap in technology.

For fighter jets, the radar performance is doubled and the combat effectiveness is increased by five times.

The air-to-air missile technology is doubled and the combat effectiveness is increased by 10 times.

Therefore, the current J-10 is equipped with China's latest air-to-air missiles, which is China's biggest confidence now.

"Now I announce that the J-10 fighter jet is officially in mass production..."

In the hall, everyone applauded warmly when they heard this.

The J-10 fighter jet is officially in mass production, which means that China's sky has its own third-generation fighter jet from now on, and it is a super powerful fighter jet.

The Air Force also attaches great importance to the J-10.

This time, the state also directly allocated a huge amount of money to the Air Force. The first order was as high as 120 fighter jets, a total of 24 squadrons.

The price of the J-10 fighter jet currently supplied to the military industry is 38 million yuan per aircraft, which is already quite cheap.

With this performance, if it is sold to the outside, even if it is 38 million US dollars, someone will rush to buy it. But China will definitely not sell this thing in a short time. This thing is the main model of China's future air force. With this configuration and performance, this fighter jet can be used for 30 years without changing the configuration without falling behind.

Now, China wants to develop the economy, expand national influence, and protect national security. Advanced fighter jets are the top priority, and the J-10 is just the beginning!
