Chapter 591: The Problem of Missiles
This problem has always plagued Qin Feng, and it is easy to see the advanced radar, and this radar is not the original kind of radar that cannot guide medium-range missiles, it can guide Sparrow missiles, but now, the result is that this kind of missile has not been ordered, so what is going on in China?
The other people here definitely don't know, so Qin Feng can only let go of this idea and continue to watch the research of the people, how to put this American-made radar into the nose of the Soviet system is definitely a challenge for them.
Time, just like that, day by day, Qin Feng has gained a lot every day here, the biggest harvest is still this system standard, that's right, I want to change, all change to the Western standard, their standard is obviously more advanced, more conducive to improving combat effectiveness!
A week later, Tu Lao's work here is also over, Qin Feng and Tu Lao and some other technicians, together on a passenger plane, returned to the capital, thinking of this harvest in Grumman, Tu Lao is also full of confidence, their J-7 CP project, has now developed to a super seven, its appearance is more avant-garde, its performance is more advanced, not only can be exported, maybe it can also be welcomed by the Air Force in the future, just like the J-7 M, it is a pretty good example of export to domestic sales.
Of course, now that it's back, continue to improve the performance of the J-7 on the basis of the work, and can't relax, after all, this super seven is cooperating with foreign countries, once there is no foreign avionics and engines, then the future is uncertain, improve the J-7, small steps and run, although the performance will not be very strong, but after all, it is domestic.
At this time, everyone doesn't know that there is still good news waiting for them.
Several people got off the plane, and the comrades who greeted them did not care about the fatigue of their journey, and immediately drove to the building of the Third Aircraft Department.
Is it going to be reported so soon? Tu Lao was also wondering in his heart, although he did not form a paper report, but just what was in his mind was enough to say, and even a lot of data was in his head.
Qin Feng followed into the conference room, he immediately felt that the atmosphere here was a little weird, and then, he saw that there were foreigners sitting in the first row in front!
Although Qin Feng has been to foreign countries many times, it is still not easy to distinguish which country they are for these Caucasians, generally speaking, Germans are rigorous, French are romantic, and British are noble, but if the other party does not take a few steps and does not make contact, it is really difficult to distinguish.
Fortunately, Qin Feng saw that General Lin was waving to him, so he sat down in stride, although there was a big age gap with General Lin, but Qin Feng had already treated General Lin as his brother, besides, the name of the little tiger head was still given by General Lin.
"What's going on?" Qin Feng asked.
"They are from the Italian company Selenia, and the most central one is their missile expert Zorro."
Zorro? When he heard this name, the first thing Qin Feng could think of was that cartoon, the knight who walked the world with a sword, he was uneven, and he would draw a Z on the bad guy's stomach every time, so this was his logo, this person was Zorro, who had seen it when he first lost his little tiger head to play.
Wait, of course it's not this cartoon anymore, what are you thinking about now? It looks like I'm really homesick.
Italian Selesna? Qin Feng thought of this title again, or is it a missile expert? Suddenly, Qin Feng remembered something.
The question that I have been bothered by all this time is that with the radar, what kind of missiles do I use? It turns out that there has been an arrangement in China for a long time, and there is no order for Sparrow missiles in China because there is a more suitable missile than Sparrow!
I'm so stupid, I obviously brought it up before, but I forgot about it.
When it comes to weapons, not only the United States, Britain, and France are advanced, but Italy is also very good at many weapons systems.
Italy's military industry, many of which are among the best, the navy, land and air force are fully equipped, although there are many allusions to the World War II period, saying that their army is a noodle army, but when it comes to weapons, people's are also quite advanced, the famous 76 mm Otto naval gun, is a typical, this OTO76 naval gun is widely equipped with the navies of Western countries, including the United States It is used as the main naval gun, it is simply "AK in the gun".
It is a pity that although the domestic navy was very interested in it, it was finally fooled by the French 100-mm naval guns, and it was not until more than 20 years of equipping that this kind of high-level naval guns was abandoned and returned to the way of 76-mm naval guns.
And in the equipment of the Air Force, they also have the famous missiles, and this is Aspade!
The missile was not originally used as an air-to-air missile, but as a surface-to-air missile.
As early as the 60s, various countries began to develop ground-to-air missiles, which were smaller, more flexible, had a short reaction time, and had good low-altitude performance; of course Italy also wanted to develop them, but the cost of developing them from scratch was too high, and the Italian Government's funds were not sufficient, so they decided to take a shortcut and directly improve and develop the "Sparrow" missile on the basis of it, and demanded the development of a multifunctional missile that could be used in ground-to-air, ship-to-air, and air-to-air, which was common to the three armed forces and could be interchangeable with the "Sparrow" missile.
After all, they were already repairing and producing the American "Hawker" and "Sparrow" AIM-7E missiles, and they planned to replace Selenia's semi-active radar seeker with Selenia's semi-active radar seeker on the basis of the AIM-7E-2 introduced by the United States, and later decided to use other key components such as self-developed fuzes, warheads, rocket engines, and rudder surface drives.
Of course, their research and development was not fast, mainly because of financial problems, and it was not until 1978 that shipborne anti-aircraft missiles began to be mass-produced, and as for the models of the Air Force, because there were already Sparrow missiles, they were not in service until the eighties, in order to modernize their F104, it was decided to make this air-to-air missile.
After all, the Sparrow missiles they use are models like the AIM-7E/F, which do not have the ability to fire down, and the latest AIM-7M, which the US government does not export.
Now, their missiles have been successfully developed, and there is no foreign market, since they can choose it, it is naturally a hit, and the price is definitely cheaper than sparrows or something.
