Chapter 733: Its not too late to be surprised by the intercontinental missile, the next one to arrive is... (Part 1)
"...conduct a two-bomb combination test lasting thousands of kilometers."
Swish——
Li Jue just finished speaking.
Many scholars who were originally excited because of the Diaoyu Islands were suddenly stunned.
Some people were communicating with colleagues next to them, and their open mouths were frozen in the air.
The entire huge conference room was like someone pressing the stop button in a short movie. Except for a few people, most of the participants turned into sculptures.
But soon.
boom--
A burst of exclamations that made the ceiling tremble... or rather questions, exploded like thunder:
"Director, what did you say?"
Looking at the dozens of experts in the audience who looked like "Are you awake?", Li Jue seemed very calm.
I saw him adjusting his glasses with his fingers, and then spreading his hands:
"Why, is this news strange?"
"Comrades, the so-called two-bomb combination experiment is to place a nuclear warhead on a missile - of course, this process is not as simple as it sounds, but in essence...or in behavior, that's what it is."
"We have now made breakthroughs in theoretical research on atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs. Highly efficient explosives such as CL20 can also be used in the warhead of missiles."
"At the same time, in the Zhuxian project, we practiced the guidance module and the waverider missile... So we have already had the ability to test the two missiles together, but you didn't expect this level."
Say it.
Li Jue couldn't help but shook his head, as if he didn't realize that this problem was the fault of many experts, and he couldn't see the gaffe of stubbing his little toe in surprise when he heard the news.
The experts in the audience were frightened by Li Jue's answer and looked at each other in confusion.
like.....
Does that make sense?
Mentioned earlier.
The real conceptual "two bombs" are not hydrogen bombs and atomic bombs, but nuclear bombs and missiles.
Therefore, the so-called two-bomb combination test is to combine nuclear bombs and missiles with each other to have the ability to deliver nuclear weapons in actual combat.
After all, although it is currently feasible for bombers to directly drop hydrogen bombs, as the military levels of various countries develop, this method will eventually change - at least it cannot be this simple.
At the same time, unlike the confidentiality of nuclear weapons parameters, countries currently have a relatively standardized understanding of atomic bomb delivery channels.
That is...the so-called trinity of sea, land and air.
The air refers to strategic bombers, the sea refers to nuclear submarines, and the last land refers to missiles.
However, the basic H-5 model that the Rabbits copied from the IL-28 is still in the process of various experiments, and the nuclear submarine is still in the theoretical design stage, so the organization has set a tone from a long time ago:
Prioritize the development of medium- and long-range ballistic missiles loaded with nuclear weapons.
If nuclear weapons are ‘bullets’, then missiles are barrels.
However, the combination of the two missiles is not as simple as it seems in the literal sense. Just one of the medium and long-range ballistic missiles is enough to trouble many people.
But now, following Li Jue's suggestion, everyone suddenly realized something.
Yes...
If the development of atomic bombs can be simplified into seven steps including the neutron transport equation and neutron source, medium and long-range ballistic missiles can also be summarized with four concepts:
Nuclear warheads, detonating charges, missile flight trajectories, and guidance methods.
Nowadays, nuclear warheads are no longer a problem. Whether it is an atomic bomb or a hydrogen bomb, rabbits can even have the luxury of choosing one of the two.
As for the detonating explosive...the base had already produced a sample of CL20 when Xu Yun and Lu Guangda went to Lop Nur. This is a high explosive that will belong to the first echelon in later generations in 2023. It is placed in the warhead of this era.
There are some supermodels in there.
The third missile flight track belongs to the core of the core, but the problem is that the wall hanging by the rabbits is not just larger than one person - Qian Wushi designed the waverider structure long before returning to China...
This structure has been verified once before during the Zhuxian project when U2 was shot down. Although the flight space...or distance is limited, there is no problem with the reliability of the structure itself.
After solving the above three problems, only the last link is left for medium- and long-range ballistic missiles, which is...
Guidance method.
It's a coincidence.
Also in the original Zhuxian project, Xu Yun took out a radio proximity fuze...
Although this thing is a bit primitive, with the help of the inertial guidance of the ballistics designed by Qian Wushi, this method is more or less sufficient.
In other words...
Before they came up with the miniaturized hydrogen bomb design today, the Rabbits actually already had the ability to develop a 'gun barrel'.
Think of this.
Bang bang bang——
The hearts of many experts began to beat again.
No wonder.....
No wonder the organization transferred Chen Huaijin, Shen Zhongfang and other Tongtiandai to Longyou for missile research and development. It turned out to be just for this matter...
Then very quickly.
A middle-aged man sitting by the window raised his hand:
"Director, I have a question."
Seeing this, Li Jue nodded to him politely:
"Comrade of merit, please tell me."
This middle-aged man is called Wang Yougong. He has an ordinary appearance and figure, but what is special is that his left eye wears a black eyepatch that looks like a pirate. Wang Yougong is currently in charge of fluid experiments, and his eyes are in
Blinded in an experimental accident.
If there is anyone in the base whose name and contribution best match, then Wang Yougong is obviously one of them.
Then Wang Yougong stood up from his position and asked Li Jue:
"Director, if we are going to do a two-bomb combination experiment, how many nuclear warheads does the warhead have? What is its yield?"
Li Jue first glanced at Master Qian in the audience, and then turned his attention to Wang Yougong:
"There is only one nuclear warhead, with a yield of about 170,000 tons."
"170,000 tons...."
Wang Yougong quickly calculated the numbers in his mind, and then nodded slowly:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "This is quite reasonable."
The yield is 4.396 million tons greater than the previously produced miniaturized hydrogen bomb, and the volume is approximately 3.7X1.5 oval. The yield is reduced to 170,000 tons while ensuring the component structure. The size of the hydrogen bomb can be reduced to that of a missile.
inside the war department.
Then Wang Yougong thought for a while and continued to ask:
"So, director, what is the target range of this two-bomb combination experiment?"
"If I remember correctly...you just said the thousand-kilometer level?"
Li Jue nodded cheerfully and continued to choose a farther location on the map where the nameless island had been drawn:
"Based on Comrade Qian Wushi's calculations and repeated organizational discussions, it was finally decided that the range of our two-bomb experiment was..."
After saying this, Li Jue paused for a few seconds and spit out a number:
"7777 kilometers, located in the South Pacific."
Swish——
As this number was exported, the scene once again ushered in a period of silence.
Xu Yun, who was sitting not far from Li Jue, also subconsciously clenched the pen in front of him, feeling a wave surging in his heart.
Although this was not the first time he heard this number, he still could not remain calm at this time.
To know.
In the military field, the range of missiles is strictly divided.
According to the general definition.
Surface-to-surface missiles are divided into short-range, medium-range, long-range and intercontinental according to their range.
The short-range range is less than 1,000 kilometers, the medium-range range is 1,000 to 3,000 kilometers, the long-range range is 3,000 to 8,000 kilometers, and the intercontinental range is more than 8,000 kilometers.
And the 7777 kilometers that the rabbits are currently practicing... are already infinitely close to the category of intercontinental missiles.
That's right.
The rabbits did it on purpose - deliberately not breaking through 8,000 kilometers.
Firstly, although with many plug-in levels of assistance, the Rabbits have achieved more amazing results in combining two bombs than in the original history, but there is still some distance between this upper limit and the ability to reach the mainland across the sea.
According to Qian Wushi and their calculations.
If the rabbits go all out on research and development, the missile's range can probably be extended to about 10,300 kilometers, and then it will reach the top.
This distance seems very far, but it still cannot reach the mainland across the sea.
Since it is theoretically impossible to reach the mainland across the sea, there is no point in pursuing the limit.
Not to mention that this launch distance is a maximum value, which actually poses a certain risk for rabbits without any pre-test launch experience.
If something unexpected happens during the launch process, it will cause trouble for all three bombs to explode simultaneously.
Instead of doing this, it is better to seek stability
The second deliberate reason is the consistent approach of the Rabbits. Just like the Rabbits of later generations insisting that they are still developing countries, Qian Wushi and others are stuck on the long-distance and intercontinental line, and the external statement can be "We
He only mastered the technology of long-range missiles."
Although whoever believes this statement is stupid, it does have a mystical effect to a certain extent.
At the same time, even if it is only 7,777 kilometers, it is still a big improvement compared to the original historical trajectory of the rabbits.
Follow the original trajectory.
The Rabbits will complete the first two-bomb combination experiment in four years, with a range of 894 kilometers.
Then fifteen years later, the first medium-range missile test was completed, with a range of 3,500 kilometers.
Then came the first intercontinental missile test eighteen years later, with a range of 8,000 kilometers.
Nowadays, Qian Wushi and the others can be said to have achieved success in one step, so why do they need a bicycle with a range of 10,000 to 20,000?
Of course.
This thing seems simple in theory, but the difficulty of the operation is actually very complicated.
"...."
Wang Yougong then exchanged a few words in a low voice with two colleagues around him. They were originally R&D personnel related to aviation fluids, and were actually not unfamiliar with missiles:
"Director, we are almost in February, and there are still eight months left. Can missile research and development be able to catch up?"
"There is also the issue of funding. If it is a missile with a range close to 8,000 kilometers, the research and development funding may not be less than 100 million. Can our country afford such a large amount of money now?"
Wang Yougong's tone was a little questioning. This was not because he was unhappy with Li Jue or Qian Wushi, but because this project was too important and they would definitely not agree without clarifying the issues clearly.
Li Jue on the stage obviously knew this very well, and he nodded slightly:
"It is very difficult in terms of time, but Comrade Qian Fifth Division and others expressed confidence that they can complete it."
"After all, it's still the same sentence. We have mastered and even practiced the most core links. The rest is mainly about researching some key points."
As soon as Li Jue finished speaking, Master Qian raised his hand and looked at Wang Yougong:
"Comrade Meritorious, the factory director is right. Our missile base has issued a military order in front of the organization to ensure that the research and development of this continental... ahem, long-range missile can be completed on time."
"Another thing I can tell you is that our Dongfeng-2 missile has actually conducted four rounds of test launches years ago. Except for the first time when the liquid oxygen tank was not strong enough to start, the remaining three test launches have been completed.
It was a success..."
"The designed range of this missile is 1,300 kilometers. At present, we have optimized several iterative plans, increasing the acceptance thrust to 107 tons, and the engine specific impulse has reached 244.2 seconds."
"In a sense, we now actually have the capability to develop medium-range ground-to-ground strategic missiles with a range of 3,000 kilometers."
"Now we have eight months. If we follow the frequency of one or two experiments per month, I am confident that the task will be completed before July."
Dongfeng No.2.
This is also one of the missiles with a special status in the history of the Republic. It is an enhanced version of the Dongfeng-1 ballistic missile. The engine thrust is set at 40.5 tons.
This missile was originally scheduled to test explode one month later, but due to structural problems, an engine caught fire and ultimately failed.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But in today's time and space, this time has been advanced - because of the appearance of Xu Yun.
do not forget.
The unit Xu Yun worked for in his previous life was Chengdu Aircraft Company. Although he had never been exposed to the J-10 or J-20, he was really familiar with early missiles such as the Dongfeng-2 - this is really not an exaggeration. In later generations, even in some parks or exhibitions,
There is also a real machine model of JJ6...
This kind of equipment with low range and low accuracy is really too backward to be displayed in later generations.
So Xu Yun not only saw the engine of Dongfeng 2, but also knew where the problem was, and even knew how to optimize it - because four years later Qian Wushi and his colleagues came up with an optimization plan, and the parameters of this optimization plan were still
It's in the research manual.
in this case.
Dongfeng-2 successfully completed its first test in December last year, but it did not carry a nuclear warhead.
In addition, the waverider live ammunition appeared in this time and space, which would not be disclosed for the first time until fifty years later, and Qian Wushi's confidence also increased.
"As for research funding..."
Li Jue smiled at Wang Yougong, with a subtle expression on his face, and said:
"Comrade with meritorious service, do you still remember the little blue pill we authorized to Mr. Qu Runpu?"
"At the beginning, we handed over the agency rights of Viagra for the next ten years to Qu Runpu in exchange for the return of Yang Zhenning and other comrades. You should have an impression of this, comrade who has made great contributions, right?"
Wang Yougong nodded.
Then Li Jue paused and continued:
"However, the agency right was not given to Qu Runpu for nothing at that time. We still have a 20% dividend. Not long ago, the first quarter dividend was paid in full."
"The amount is...$6.3 million - and that's just three months' worth of sales."
"The organization has agreed that in the future, all dividends from Viagra will be invested in the research and development of long-range missiles until the experiment is completed."
"In other words, our two-bomb combination experiment is supported by Mr. Qu Runpu's powerful motherland..."
