Chapter 230 Helicopter Sniper Cannon
He also had more advanced aircraft technologies at hand, so Xu Ziling did not consider the related technologies contained in the "Fierce Dragon" to be very important. He had no idea that these technologies that he considered unimportant would be used in other technologies.
What a treasure in human eyes.
The test items were temporarily added, so the test time was bound to increase, so the additional flight demonstration was not complete. After arriving in the designated airspace, he simply performed low-altitude, climbing, and several classic tactical maneuvers, giving Xu Ziling a basic understanding
After the observation, Huang Jiancheng issued the order to officially start testing the weapon system.
After receiving the order, Xiaolong quickly flew to the Air Force weapons testing base of the 81st Air Force Division.
On the screen, there are several small screens showing a panoramic view of the entire test base. On the wide ground of the base, there are abandoned vehicles, the remaining empty shells of the main station tanks as imaginary enemy targets, and some armed fortifications such as bunkers.
.
Taking the project test schedule that someone had sent out before, Xu Ziling took a look at it and saw that the first item on it was the machine gun test.
Due to his busy schedule, Xu Ziling did not design special weapons and equipment for the "Fierce Dragon". When Mr. Li and Mr. Huang asked him, he just let them carry a 30mm single-barreled rapid-fire cannon.
The rockets are 90mm rockets commonly used in China, the air-to-surface missiles are also domestically produced AKD-10 anti-tank missiles, and the air-to-air missiles are TY-90 air-to-air missiles.
One reason for this kind of loading is because he was busy at the beginning, and the other reason is that when the two elders asked him, he happened to have information on the WZ-10 armed helicopter, so in order to be lazy, he used the equipment of the WZ-10
.
However, because the "Fierce Dragon" is equipped with a new radar, its avionics system and weapon control system have all been changed around the radar system. Not only can weapons be guided by radar, but also the avionics system can be guided by radar.
It was changed to use the new radar as traction.
The compatibility between these systems was all done by Xu Ziling at the beginning. In the end, there was no time to modify the guidance of the missile, so Huang Jiancheng and the others had to modify it themselves.
The current "Fierce Dragon" completely abandons the traditional method in terms of avionics system and adopts a new radar screen multi-angle viewing method. It is no longer like the traditional avionics system, when it reaches a certain low-altitude distance,
It can only be judged by the experience of the pilot, but you can clearly see on the screen how high the ground is in the aircraft.
Even at high speed, only ten meters away from the ground, as long as the pilot has enough reaction speed, he can quickly pull the aircraft up, which greatly increases the controllability and safety of the aircraft.
In terms of weapons, whether it is cannons or missiles, Xu Ziling has developed an automatic control system that is more advanced than today's technology. When the pilot needs to launch ammunition, he only needs to select the target to be hit on the weapon control system screen.
target, and then the system can automatically adjust the direction of the weapon and lock the target. Finally, you only need to press the launch button so lightly, and don't care about anything else. It is truly a point where you can only fire without caring.
Helicopter cannons are generally used to attack armed fortifications on the ground, so the shooting targets this time are naturally the bunkers and vehicles of the base.
The test officially started. Each weapon test was divided into non-combat state and combat state, so Huang Jiancheng ordered the first weapon test in non-combat state.
"Lock target, request launch!" Several images on the screen showed the first target at close range: the bunker. The pilot's launch request was also transmitted from the communication system.
"Approved to launch." After checking the test data collection work one last time, Huang Jiancheng issued the pilot's launch request.
The order was confirmed, and the "Fierce Dragon" hovering in mid-air in the screen immediately spit out a violent burst of fire from the cannon on its lower belly.
Although he couldn't hear the sound of the cannon firing, Xu Ziling could imagine the huge power of the 30mm artillery just by seeing the tongue of flames.
On the screen showing the target's bunker, a burst of dust rose into the sky, blocking the scene after the target was hit.
After waiting for dozens of seconds, the person responsible for collecting data at the base immediately sent a report: "Ten rounds, all hit. Assessment: The target was destroyed devastatingly."
The first battle was won! When hearing such a report, everyone sitting there burst into joy and applauded involuntarily.
However, it was time for the test, so no one said much. They laughed and chatted with each other for a few words, and then sat down quietly, waiting for the next test.
"Cannon test under combat conditions!"
Huang Jiancheng's order was issued. The pilot who received the order in the screen simulated the situation on the battlefield and immediately controlled the various aircraft to continuously perform tactical maneuvers. Finally, during an evasive maneuver with the fuselage facing away from the target, the order was issued.
made a request to shoot.
"agree!"
We just agreed. In the picture, the helicopter's cannon with its back to the target object quickly turned the cannon under the fuselage under electric control and pointed the cannon at the target object.
There was another tongue of fire, and the target object in the picture, the car, exploded in the blink of an eye and turned into a pile of junk, completely losing the appearance of the previous vehicle.
This time there was no dust obstruction, and everyone knew the result without reporting it. From the confirmation of the order to the complete destruction of the target, Xu Ziling discovered that it probably took less than fifteen seconds.
Fifteen seconds, this is still under test conditions. If it were on a real battlefield, who would come to ask for instructions to launch? When you see it, a shuttle will pass by. Only the devil will wait for instructions before firing. Think about it this way, if it is really
On the battlefield, this time should be shortened to less than ten seconds.
Ten seconds, in the ever-changing situation of war, seems to be a long distance. But this test method has a premise, that is, the pilot controls the aircraft with his back to the target!
Of all of you sitting here today, have you ever heard that among all the armed helicopters today, there is no cannon that can automatically find and strike targets in a 360-degree direction?
"..."
Seeing the excellent performance of the cannon, everyone did not react at once, they were all confused, and the command hall suddenly became extremely quiet.
Is this still a cannon? It's basically a sniper cannon, and it's also a sniper cannon with an automatic target-finding function. In previous tests, everyone felt that this aircraft was absolutely internationally advanced, but seeing the current weapon test results, they
I feel that my previous judgment was wrong and I was definitely not high enough for this aircraft.
Although he designed it himself, Xu Ziling was still a little surprised after seeing its performance, but he was better than others. He sighed in his heart and soon sobered up.
Seeing the silence in the command hall, he didn't know what to say and coughed lightly.
"Hmm...good...very good..."
The old principal who spoke first, with an old face full of red light, stood up excitedly and said yes.
The automatic cannon finding the target and striking it is a matter of control. In the eyes of the uninitiated, it seems to be a very simple matter. But in the eyes of the expert, it is different.
The realization of this function requires support from many aspects. Otherwise, in the big countries in the West, someone has already done it, so where would it be Xu Ziling's turn to do it?
Many researchers involved in this matter all have a certain understanding of Xu Ziling, but many people lack confidence in this matter. However, with the support of Li Litian, Huang Jiancheng, the old principal, the principal and others, everyone also
They didn’t say much. They thought that this technology would be impossible to implement, and there would be a considerable deviation in accuracy.
But everything in front of me proved that Xu Ziling's design was 100% feasible.
"Bah bang bang..." All the people, whether they had absolutely believed in him or those who had little confidence in him, stood up and applauded him without hesitation.
With the test results of the cannon, even if the following tests failed, they were satisfied. This was a problem that had been solved all over the world.
Although Xu Ziling is usually thick-skinned, he is still a little embarrassed at this time. Without the existence of "Lion", he is probably just one of the many ordinary people in the Celestial Dynasty, although most of the designs of "Fierce Dragon" came from him
He did it himself, but he copied some of the related designs from Lion.
Now that everyone was treating him like this, he still felt a little bit guilty.
Bending down, he bowed 360 degrees to everyone with a guilty conscience. At the same time, he felt a little happy in his heart. Seeing the results of his participation, he should always be happy.
Fortunately, I got the lion, "You see, lion. You gave me all this."
I was thinking about the lion and exchanged words with the lion in my mind.
"Hehe..." The lion is now becoming more and more humane. Hearing Xu Ziling say this, he felt a little embarrassed, "It's nothing. Most of this is your own credit. I'm just giving guidance."
, I think we have a happy cooperation!”
“Yes…pleased to work with you!”
The lion believed that he was the master, and there was no difference between his and his own. Xu Ziling quickly figured it out.
His attitude of not being arrogant or impetuous made everyone even more happy. Everyone felt from the bottom of their hearts that Xu Ziling was really a good person.
"Okay. Don't praise this little guy, otherwise he will be proud later." The old principal looked at Xu Ziling who was surrounded by everyone with joy, smiled and made a little joke, "Hurry up and finish your work.
Let’s celebrate the next test later! I’ll buy you a meal out of my own pocket.”
Chapter completed!
