Dai Ming was a little disapproving at first, but as he watched, his eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Old Chen, is this really written by you?" Dai Ming couldn't help but ask, but the words were out of his mouth. He also felt that his question was too abrupt. He smiled and said: "Old Chen, I have no doubts.
What you mean is, I just think the things you wrote are really good, and they are a real help in times of need! Especially for how we will select carrier-based aircraft pilots in the future."
Chen Fei smiled and said nothing.
Dai Ming lowered his head and continued to look down.
After reading what Chen Fei wrote, Dai Ming was very happy and slapped his hand on the table: "Old Chen, with these things from you, we can have a complete program for training pilots of carrier-based aircraft.
.”
After Chen Fei and Dai Ming discussed it, they began to make relevant preparations non-stop. Although it was his first time to come to the base, he had received a lot of knowledge about carrier-based aircraft flight because he had received help from the system before.
and experience, so his training was very smooth, almost every person learned something and mastered it. When I first met him, he was still a student, but after an hour or two, he became a teacher.
Therefore, next, Chen Fei can really get in touch with the J-15.
"Old Chen, I will take you on a flight today!" Dai Ming said.
"good!"
Dai Ming took Chen Fei to the airport.
"Let's take a look at your car first?" Dai Ming turned to ask Chen Fei.
"good!"
Chen Fei nodded.
Although he already had all kinds of knowledge and experience in driving the J-5, it was his first time to have such a close contact. His eyes couldn't help but feel a little straight, and his blood was boiling all over his body.
"Is this our carrier-based aircraft?"
"This is the J-15!"
Chen Fei watched in trance.
The plane presented to him at this time was not the best, but it was not bad either.
Currently, there are only a few fixed-wing carrier-based fighter models in use in various countries around the world: excluding the F-35C, which is still being tested by the U.S. Navy and has no real FOC, the U.S. Navy currently only has the F/A-18E/F and
A small amount of C/D, the two carrier-based air groups of the Russian Navy on land also have dozens of Su-33 and MiG-29K/KUB. The Chinese Navy uses J-15, and the Indian Navy also uses MiG.
-29K/KUB, then the French Navy uses several squadrons of Rafale F3M, and some small and unpopular countries may also have some AV-8B, not to mention.
Among so many models, the F-35B/C can be said to be the best. After all, it is the only carrier-based fourth-generation fighter jet; followed by the F/A-18E/F and the French Rafale
F3M, both are third-and-a-half-generation fighter jets. They are equally matched in terms of strap capabilities. The F/A-18E/F may be stronger. After all, the platform is larger, the reactance performance is better, and it also has some unique stunts; followed by the J-18E/F.
15 and MiG-29K/KUB, both of which are late models of the third-generation aircraft. The J-15 may have an advantage due to its larger platform and performance. Finally, the Su-33 is last, which is a very old early third-generation aircraft.
aircraft, now they basically have no combat effectiveness and can only fight against second-generation fighter jets.
From here we can see that it is a bit too much to say that the J-15 can be ranked in the first echelon. To be precise, it is a little ahead of the worst Su-33 and can be ranked in the second to last echelon. Although we are mounting
It may be comparable to the French "Rafale" in terms of capabilities, but its avionics, reactance, and multi-purpose performance are not as good as those of the French, and its maneuverability may not be as good.
Therefore, we still cannot overestimate the performance of the J-15. As we have said before, this aircraft can at best solve the problem of fixed-wing carrier-based aircraft and needs to be further upgraded.
Chen Fei first touched the J-15's landing gear, then put his hand on it, and immediately felt a feeling in his heart that this landing gear was strong enough.
After touching the landing gear, he came to the engine nozzle again. Looking at the huge nozzle, his mood involuntarily improved.
"The wing area is larger than that of ordinary aircraft. In addition, its canards are very special. The structural strength of the fuselage has also been strengthened. Also, the suspension system of the landing gear is also somewhat different."
"The biggest change is the wing. It has a folding mechanism and uses a lot of composite materials. The weight of the fuselage is actually much lighter than that of Maozi cargo. It takes off with a light load of 22 tons, carries four blank bombs, and has a combat radius of 500
Kilometers, I can only say it’s average.”
Dai Ming introduced them one by one.
Chen Fei watched and listened, and echoed Dai Ming: "That's it for taking off with a ski jump."
The ski jump takeoff technology is relatively simple, but it has extremely high weight restrictions.
At present, except for the United States and France, the aircraft carriers of other countries are equipped with ski jump takeoffs. Even the United Kingdom, the former aircraft carrier power, has abandoned steam catapults and switched to ski jump flight decks.
The technical difficulty of ski jump take-off is relatively low. Because of this, many countries can install it at low cost, thereby realizing the dream of aircraft carriers. However, the shortcomings are also very obvious, that is, the efficiency of use is relatively low. So for many
For major military powers, they will generally first consider using catapults for ejection take-off. Although many people say that ski jump take-off does not have any advantages, in terms of overall capabilities, ski jump take-off still has certain advantages.
, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many countries adopting this approach.
From the current point of view, ski jump takeoff means that the front end of the aircraft carrier's flight deck is tilted to a certain angle in the direct direction, so as to help fighter jets take off with certain convenience. And the light aircraft carriers in the world that are currently in service and will be retired in the near future,
Generally, they are equipped with a ski-jump take-off deck. In a sense, the ski-jump take-off deck has become the standard configuration of light aircraft carriers. For example, the British Invincible-class aircraft carrier, the Italian Garibaldi aircraft carrier, and the Thai Zachary
The Naruebet aircraft carrier, Spain's Prince of Asturias aircraft carrier, and even many amphibious assault ships are also equipped with ski-jump flight decks.
The advantage of the ski jump take-off deck is that it has a simple structure and is more convenient for later maintenance. Under normal circumstances, an upturned deck is installed tens of meters in front of the bow of the ship and is maintained at about 14 degrees. For short-distance take-off, the carrier-based aircraft slides to
It already has a certain speed when the deck is tilted up, so the lift can be gradually increased by using the height of the ski jump. When leaving the aircraft carrier, you can easily take off and keep the angle with the bow of the ship. In other words, you can use the bow of the ship to take off.
Lift the nose of the carrier-based aircraft at an angle.
In addition, another major advantage of the ski jump take-off deck is that the technical difficulty is relatively low and the cost is relatively low. When a fixed-wing fighter takes off, it can greatly reduce the cost of capital and research and development.
Compared with catapult takeoff, the biggest disadvantage of ski jump flight deck is that it requires the carrier-based aircraft's own power to take off in a short distance. For a carrier-based aircraft weighing dozens of tons, the fuel load needs to be reduced.
As well as the bomb load to achieve short take-off, although this is a very common thing in peacetime, during the war, if there is a lack of fuel load and bomb load, this is undoubtedly a very dangerous behavior, and ski jump take-off
The deck is more suitable for light fighters, which means that heavy carrier-based aircraft are no longer suitable for taking off on the ski jump takeoff deck.
In addition, the ski-jump take-off deck is very unfriendly to fixed-wing early warning aircraft. After all, this special type of aircraft is very large, requires a long distance to take off, and is heavier than carrier-based aircraft, so many use ski jumps.
Aircraft carriers that jump from the takeoff deck generally use early warning helicopters instead, which is a bit regrettable. Moreover, aircraft carriers without fixed-wing early warning aircraft will still be subject to many constraints in their air defense capabilities.
