On the Raptor, song Lao realized his ideal of duck layout. Today is only the first flight. According to Chen Rui's feedback, the agility of this aircraft is quite high, not only much higher than the previous second-generation aircraft, but also higher than the third-generation aircraft such as the F-16.

Why? Because it is a duck layout and positive lift, this is the advantage of this pneumatic layout!

However, this model alone is not enough. According to the sequence of fighter R & D, it is equipped with one generation, test flight generation and pre research generation.

Now the equipment is the J-7, and now the test flight is the Raptor. Now the pre research should be a new generation.

Old song can't wait.

In the current Raptor project, we have achieved the goal of catching up with the West. The performance of this three-generation machine has reached the western standard. However, just catching up is not enough. We have to surpass!

Yes, it's transcendence. No matter what weak links the domestic industry has, it seems to be a castle in the air to talk about transcendence, but as an aircraft development engineer, he must have this courage!

Qin Guan understood what song Lao meant, and the expression on his face was solemn.

"Old song, what do you think is the biggest threat to our fighters?" Qin Guan asked.

What is the biggest threat of fighters? This is a very simple problem. It can be the other side's fighter plane or the ground air defense missile. These can make the fighter break its halberd and sink into the sand. In the war of a few years ago, the sam-6 missile was famous and killed hundreds of aircraft.

However, this is obviously not the answer Qin Guan wants. He must have deep meaning when he asks this question.

After thinking about it, old song asked, "do you mean radar?"

Whether it is a fighter or a ground-based air defense missile, the first step to find a target is to find it from the radar.

Not to mention the J-7, which is purely visual, it has fallen far behind. In a real war, I'm afraid it has been beaten down by the other party before it flies to the other party and uses air guns.

Radar is not only the eye of aircraft, but also the eye of ground air defense missile. Radar undertakes the important task of discovering aircraft.

Hearing what song said, Qin Guan nodded. Yes, song is always smart. He has found the key problem without his own guidance.

In the future sky, whoever can get rid of the discovery of radar can be invincible!

"Therefore, the first and primary goal of our next generation of fighters is stealth," Qin Guan said.

It is less than 80 years now. In history, the word stealth was first heard by the outside world in 81 years from Eagle country.

Eagle people's fighters have always led the trend of the whole world in development. Their F-15 and F-16 have formed a generation difference advantage over Xiong's fighters, but Xiong will not always fall behind. Therefore, they have developed two new third-generation aircraft, MiG-29 "fulcrum" and Su-27 "flanker".

In this way, the Eagle Air Force felt a challenge. Therefore, in 1981, the senior management of the US Air Force began to explore the research and development of the next generation fighter, aiming to develop a new fighter that could replace the F-15 Eagle as the main force at that time. In June of the same year, they issued an information request for "Advanced Tactical Fighter".

The code name of this is ATF. At that time, there were three rigid requirements for the ATF plan: stealth, supersonic cruise and short take-off and landing. Later, with super mobility, it became a typical expression of 4S.

Stealth performance is the key to future aircraft. Now, everyone in this era has not realized it.

When hearing Qin Guan talking about invisibility, old song was stunned. What joke are you telling? Can you change yourself like monkey sun?

Of course, Mr. Song doesn't believe it.

"Song Lao, this invisibility does not mean that you can't see it visually. It doesn't exist. By invisibility, I mean that radar can't see it."

"How could that be? As long as the radar shines on the fighter, it will reflect the radar!" old song expressed his views to Qin Guan.

No, it's absolutely impossible. It's beyond our own understanding.

"However, we can reduce the radar reflection of fighters through special structures." Qin Guan said: "for example, the intake port, our current belly intake port, can directly see the engine turbofan blades inside. These blades are huge electromagnetic reflection sources. If we make the intake port S-shaped and block the blades, we can greatly reduce the reflection."

"We make the plane into various angular slopes. In this way, when the electromagnetic wave shines, it will reflect the electromagnetic wave in other directions. As long as it does not reflect to the other party's radar, it is not a 180 degree reflection, and the other party can't receive it."

"For another example, our vertical tail should not be a tall single vertical tail, but two inclined vertical tails with large inclination angle, so as to reduce the reflection on the side."

"For those that cannot be reflected, we can lay a layer of electromagnetic wave absorbing material on the surface of the aircraft to absorb the electromagnetic wave."

When Qin Guan mentioned invisibility, he definitely didn't just talk about indicators, but used simple and understandable descriptions to say the scheme of invisibility.

For Qin Guan from later generations, these schemes are too simple and clear.

"Through these methods, we can reduce the radar reflection of the whole fighter to the size of a table tennis ball. In this way, if the ground radar can be found 100 kilometers away, it is now less than 10 kilometers away. What do you think of my idea?" Qin Guan said to old song.

Qin Guan gave too much information.

The schemes are unheard of and unimaginable. However, Qin Guan's words are so simple and clear. If his schemes are followed, they are feasible.

Mr. Song carefully digested the schemes mentioned by Qin Guan, including air inlet, fuselage, vertical tail and what stealth coating.

Suddenly, he came up with an idea: "in this case, I'm afraid it will greatly increase the resistance of our fighter? Can it fly?"

Can this thing fly? In history, when the stealth aircraft was just developed, many people had such doubts. The first generation stealth aircraft, F117, is now under intensive development. Only a few senior managers know its existence. This is an absolutely confidential model. Everyone who knows about it has such a view. Can it fly?

As long as the engine is awesome, bricks can fly to the sky!
