Chapter 107: J-8 on the plateau
The MiG-25 is the king of the sky, and it is absolutely impossible to shoot it down in the airspace that it is good at.
Even in later generations, all the results of the shooting down of the MiG-25 were definitely not shot down when they flew to an altitude of 30,000 meters and were shot down at Mach 3.
After all, a plane can't fly like this all the time, and under normal circumstances, it still flies at subsonic speeds at an altitude of 10,000 meters.
For example, in the Iran-Iraq war in which the MiG-25 shined, Iraq's trump card, Falcon Reyer, was tricked in this way, and he didn't know how he died when he died.
If you want to use the J-8 to kill the opponent, you have to find a way.
The power jump, it can only jump up to 25,000, if people fly to 30,000 meters, there is still no way to take the other party.
Therefore, you must think of a practical way to shoot it down in the airspace that you are good at!
Hearing Qin Feng's words, some of the people present had bright eyes, but some continued to frown.
"This seems unlikely, although we don't have enough radar to know its flight path, but as long as it flies into our airspace, will it still fly at low altitude?" Someone said.
The southwest is a plateau, and it is difficult for people to walk in most areas, and it is impossible to move the fighter plane over, so the route of this plane is not familiar to the other side, but it can be guessed that once the other side flies over, it must be high-altitude.
General Lin's eyes flashed with light, and he looked at Qin Feng: "Go on." ”
"We don't know the actual situation of the MiG-25, we don't know how big its range is, but we can guess that flying from the three countries of Argentina to our Chengdu should be the limit of its range, right?"
This is just speculation, the Soviets' aircraft have always had a high fuel consumption rate, and the MiG-25 doesn't look like it flies high and fast, but its fuel consumption is certainly not low, so the range is limited.
"I speculate that this plane must be deployed at the air base across our borders, and as long as we can detect its specific location, then..."
"We can't cross the border." At this moment, someone had already spoken: "This will provoke a war." ”
Listening to Qin Feng's meaning, he said that if he wanted to find the other party's air base, he would naturally have to cross the border to attack, so it wouldn't work!
"Of course, you can't attack across the border, if the opponent's air base is deployed in the border area, then the other party has already crossed the border during takeoff, and at this time, it must not have climbed high enough!" Qin Feng said: "Especially when it takes off, it is full of fuel, and it is always slow when climbing. ”
This said, General Lin's eyes lit up, that's right!
The people present are all experts, the climb rate of the fighter is an important indicator, this indicator is of course related to the weight of the aircraft, if the plane is full of fuel, the climb is definitely not fast!
That's a good idea.
"However, there are mountains everywhere, and it is not easy for us to ambush there."
This time, the removed Lao Wang was actually a little wronged.
The southwest region is full of high mountains, and it is very difficult to effectively monitor the country's territory, most of which are no-man's land, and it is very difficult to deploy air defense radars there, so no matter who it is, to that location, it is the same result.
In Chengdu and other places, it is easy to find it, but it must have climbed to more than 26,000, absolutely safe airspace, so it can fly with swagger.
"Our J-8, can it operate on the plateau?" At this moment, General Lin asked another crucial question.
The deployment of radar is a huge problem, and this difficult problem can be solved by engineering troops, even if it is to open a road in the mountains and build a bridge in the water, it is necessary to erect a radar on the border, so that the other side can fly together and see it clearly.
However, another question is huge, how to intercept it?
Since it is beyond the combat area of the Hongqi-2 missile, and the fighter has greater maneuverability, it is better to use the fighter to intercept it, but can the fighter operate on the plateau?
For a long time, the fighters of the Air Force have not been on the plateau.
In later generations, it was not until the J-7 that it began to try to deploy on the plateau, and in the current situation, there are no fighters on hand that take off and land on the plateau.
Since the Soviet Union did not have particularly high-altitude airfields, the Soviets themselves only required that they take off and land at an altitude of no higher than 2,500 meters when designing fighters.
In other words, people have not considered the problem of plateau take-off and landing at all, and this problem needs to be overcome by oneself.
Although the J-8 is a self-designed fighter, it is actually a double-engine version of the J-7, and the J-7 has never been on the plateau, so the J-8 is even more unclear.
Plateau, the first problem is the lack of oxygen, ordinary people on the plateau, will be out of breath, some will even get altitude sickness, if not treated in time, it is easy to have a life-threatening situation.
And for fighters, taking off and landing on the plateau, there are even more problems.
"We want to take off and land on the plateau, and the first problem is the start of the engine." Qin Feng began to analyze: "Our engine is designed to start at low altitude, the engine needs more oxygen, and at high altitude, oxygen is insufficient, it is difficult for the aircraft to turn up on its own, however, we can use special methods, for example, we use a blower to blow air into the air intake, so as to artificially increase its intake flow." ”
The ultimate condition for determining the outcome of a war is people! Not one or two advanced weapons! What to do when the weapons are not advanced enough? Of course, you have to figure it out for yourself!
Qin Feng is just thinking of a way for everyone.
How to solve the problem of engine starting? As long as you use your brain, there is always a way!
"The bigger problem is putting the landing gear in place than the engine starting." Qin Feng continued: "If we land at an airport at an altitude of 3,500 meters, then we need at least an additional 1,500 meters to establish a landing route, adding up to a full 5,000 meters altitude. That's the equivalent of putting the landing gear at an altitude of 5,000 meters. ”
How to put the landing gear is also a big problem, at this height, can the landing gear be released normally? After it is released, will it affect the maneuverability of the aircraft?
No one is sure.
Gritting his teeth, Qin Feng said: "So, we can only test fly little by little, increase the altitude little by little, as long as there is a need, we will fly out!" ”
