"That's the most advanced American technology." Standing in the hangar under maintenance, Nathan looked at the Tomcat fighter with the radome in front of him, and looked at the radar antenna of a flat panel inside, and couldn't help but let out a sigh.

In the seventies, the United States began to use flat slit radar antennas.

The original radar antenna is like a pot, which is the easiest to think of, which can reflect electromagnetic waves and gather them together, thereby increasing the effect of radar.

It has developed to the present, and it has gradually matured, called the Casselloren antenna, which puts the main reflector in front to reduce the range of feed shake and improve the mechanical life, and now the Soviet Union is still using this radar.

However, the United States has realized this state-of-the-art method of flat-panel slot radar antennas, an antenna in which gaps are opened in metal plates, and electromagnetic waves radiate to the outer space through the gaps.

This looks quite simple, lightweight, has a good plane structure, and is easy to conformal with the installed object.

The amplitude distribution of the slot array antenna is easy to control, and the utilization rate of the aperture surface is high, which can achieve low or very low sidelobes. At the same time, the slot antenna also has the advantages of firm structure, simple and compact, easy processing, convenient feeding, and simple erection.

However, its processing is quite precise, after all, the accuracy required by this gap is quite high, and it is definitely not something that the rough technology of the Soviet Union can achieve, and in later generations, even if it is to Russia, it has never mastered the technology of this antenna, and as a last resort, Russia directly bypassed it and engaged in phased array radar.

In Huaxia, it was also a technology that had gone through arduous efforts to master, and Nathan, who came from later generations, was fascinated by the simplicity and efficiency embodied in this radar.

"Yes, this is the latest technology in our United States, which gives the Tomcat fighter a strong performance." Just then, a voice came to my ear.

Nathan turned his head and saw Emily standing behind him, looking at him with pulsed eyes.

Emily is also about to finish her work at the school and prepare to return to the CIA, she has come here mainly to cooperate with the school to develop tactics against the new air threat, and now, a few months later, Emily has completed her mission.

For the MiG-23 and MiG-25, the Tomcat fighters will face it with a high-spirited attitude, of course, the specific situation will not be known until the two sides fight, but the cooperation of the CIA still plays a major role.

The Soviet Union did not have these technologies, and the interception capability of the Tomcat fighter at a distance of 100 kilometers was what this radar gave it.

Nathan avoided Emily's eyes, although in this era, in this country, it is nothing to have a relationship with a few beautiful women, but Nathan has the experience of a previous life, since he has already happened to Jenny, he can't do anything to be sorry for Jenny.

Although he never promised Jenny anything, Nathan was also self-conscious.

Of course, Nathan doesn't remember the events of that night, it was like a dream.

Emily was a little depressed when she thought of this. But soon, she controlled her emotions: "I'm leaving soon, how about it, can you invite me to have a drink?" ”

At this time, Emily's mood is very complicated, on the surface, she will return to the CIA, in fact, she is going to Germany, her mission here is completed, and it is time to go there to resume another identity.

"No problem." Nathan said, turning his head to look at the Tomcat radar again, and was about to leave the hangar, just when an orderly hurried over.

"Major Nathan, Major Emily, please go to the Headmaster's office immediately."

What's the situation?

Confused, the two got into the orderly's car and came to the principal's office.

When he opened the office door, Nathan saw a kind old man sitting inside, the same General Thomas he had seen the last time he had been at the base!

"Young man, you're here, I've wanted to see you again for a long time, you're a big hero of our navy now!" General Thomas said with a smile: "It is also a big star in our country." ”

At the beginning, when Nathan first came to the Mirama base, he talked with the old general, and Nathan proposed to shoot a movie at that time, and the result was fully supported by the old general, and now, the film is played, and suddenly, the Tomcat fighter is popular all over the country, piggybacking, the number of people applying for the naval aviation this year has doubled compared with the past!

The top brass of the Navy was overjoyed, and although there were accidents during the shooting, it was still a success on the whole.

Hearing General Thomas's words, Nathan did not feel the slightest complacency, he said: "It's all thanks to Ms. Jenny, who pushed the film forward step by step and finally succeeded." ”

Not taking credit, not being complacent, is a kind of inheritance from later generations, and now, Nathan's performance made General Thomas very satisfied, and he couldn't help but mutter: "Yes, Jenny, this little girl, really did it, at the beginning..."

Speaking of this, he stopped stiffly, and the topic was still not discussed.

"Nathan, you have become a famous star in the country, and you still haven't given up on our navy and entered Hollywood, which shows that your loyalty to our navy is the highest, and now, we still have one more thing that we need your help to do." General Thomas said: "King BS is coming to our base soon to watch an air show, and I hope you will come to fly the Tomcat fighter and show the excellent performance of this fighter." ”

After speaking, he paused and continued: "This is related to whether Grumman can continue to operate, and whether our navy can continue to equip new Tomcat fighters. ”

Hearing this, Nathan understood, and sure enough, this history was a little different from his own memory.

Historically, the BS king went to Andrews Air Force Base to watch the air show, and the aircraft were selected, and the F-15 and F-14 selected at that time were both flying, and the result was that the BS king fell in love with the variable-swept wing Tomcat at a glance.

And now, because he made a popular air combat movie all over the world in advance, this old guy must be quite interested in his own plane, so he went straight to the Mirama base.

As the most reliable image spokesperson for the Tomcat fighter, flying the Tomcat fighter is almost the most suitable.

And, of course, competition from the Air Force.

After speaking, General Thomas really aimed his eyes at Emily: "Major Emily, I have no right to order you, you, as our adviser, have always been diligent here, and we want to know some F-15 fighter jets now, this shouldn't be a leak, right?" ”

Emily nodded, and as a result, Thomas had to take an inch: "Just like this time, you and Nathan worked together to develop a beautiful set of performances to perfectly suppress the F-15!" ”
