Chapter 263 The young eagle "Harpy"

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After speaking, Weisberg jumped onto the "Badger" armored vehicle. Barak was stunned without saying anything, and got in before the vehicle started.

    Not shocked, of course he was shocked, especially when the four squadrons of the Combat Reconnaissance Battalion released a total of eight of those weird aircraft and carried out go-around attacks. Barak was not much less shocked than Shokin.  , I really thought that South Africa had an incredible weapon and equipment. Otherwise, with Weisberg's ability, he would never have rushed in with his head covered when he knew that he was exposed and might be surrounded by the enemy.

    However, the battle went on for a while, especially when Barak carefully watched Weisberg reassemble and fly that amazing and weird aircraft to replenish the same kind that other groups had crashed to the ground due to operational problems, so as to maintain a dense  When attacking the rhythm.

    Barak¡¯s heart, which was pounding because of shock, calmed down a little.

    It is undeniable that seeing this kind of thing for the first time is indeed very scary. That kind of air strike-style ground strike can really make the party being attacked misjudge.

    Fortunately, Barak was not being attacked, so he could see more clearly. Rather than saying that what Weisberg released was a missile, it was more of a remotely controlled and maneuverable attack aircraft.

    The charge inside is very simple, it is a typical hollow charge armor-piercing warhead, and it is also the cheapest touch fuze, because Barak saw an aircraft that failed to take off in front of his eyes, and the whole thing was photographed on the ground.  There was no explosion, so I am very confident in making a judgment based on my rich experience.

    And since it is a top-cover attack, the amount of explosive charge does not need to be very large, so the aircraft is particularly flexible and light, and can be used for hand-thrown take-off.

    However, white phosphorus incendiary aircraft are not so convenient. Because the warhead charge is too heavy, it needs to be equipped with a rocket booster device to take off from a simple guide rail. However, these things are easy to assemble and disassemble. A pickup truck,  It can be easily done by two or three people.

    However, compared to the flexible release and operation, what interests Barak most is the aircraft itself. The cylindrical fuselage is equipped with a wide delta wing. The small-power engine at the tail drives a smart propeller. The entire aircraft  Except for the obvious upturns of the two wingtips, there are only two vertical tail sections at the tail for balance. There is nothing protruding. At first glance, it looks very weird.

    But it is such a weird guy, but it shows extraordinary maneuverability in the air. Whether it is climbing or diving, it can do it with ease, especially when attacking, it is almost vertical to the target.

    Others may not think anything of it, but Barak, who has participated in special training with the Israeli Air Force, holds a Class II military aircraft piloting certificate, and has a bachelor's degree in aeronautical engineering from the University of Bethlehem in Israel, knows that aircraft, especially those in the atmosphere, want to  To achieve this without stalling, the requirements for the aerodynamic layout of the aircraft are quite high.

    What's more, if the target misses, the aircraft will still pull up and go around under the control of the remote control. You must know that the aircraft is already very close to the ground at this time, coupled with the acceleration during the dive, it is difficult to make a go-around.  It's not easy, but this kind of aircraft can easily perform complex maneuvers thanks to its excellent aerodynamic layout.

    Of course, except for operational errors and being photographed on the ground.

    But no matter what, under such actual combat conditions, a 30% go-around rate already shows that this aircraft has excellent performance. However, according to Barak's rough calculation, its go-around rate exceeds 40%, close to 50%.  This is not excellence, but excellence.

    However, no matter how excellent this aircraft is, its shortcomings are still very obvious. The first is the number of releases, which has always remained at eight. It is obvious that the interference between each other makes it impossible for this aircraft to launch attacks in batches.

    This also leads to the second point. There is mutual interference between each other, which proves that its anti-interference performance is very poor. This is also the case in the indigenous battlefields in Africa and the complex electromagnetic environment in the Middle East. This kind of aircraft can  How effective it is is really a question.

    Finally, there is the training level of Weisberg and others. It is obvious that they all rushed into battle and made a high error rate in controlling the aircraft. Fortunately, Weisberg was smart enough to immediately replace one after it fell.  There were always eight aircraft hovering in the sky, which not only disturbed the tribal soldiers on the front line, but also made stars hide in the eyes of the Soviet commanders hiding in the rear.

    As the saying goes, laymen only watch the excitement, and experts watch the door. He is also a foreign military consultant. Because he only focuses on army armored warfare and is not familiar with the aviation field, he saw a steady stream of aircraft that were constantly circling and occasionally going around to attack again.  Encountering South Africa's trump card, the opportunity was lost in a panic.

    ? And from a professional perspective, BarakWe quickly figured out the pros and cons of this kind of aircraft, as well as the basic methods to deal with it. Although the two of them are in different positions and have some different perspectives on the problem, if Barak is placed in Shaokin's position, the result of today's battle will be  It's really hard to say what will happen.

    This is the conclusion that Weisberg came to after listening to Barak's explanation of the advantages and disadvantages of the "Attacker" drone, because during the battle, in order to show Barak his trump card, Weisberg began to  From beginning to end, I never said a word to him about the "Attacker" drone.

    And these advantages and disadvantages, Barak observed so accurately in just one battle. It has to be said that it is not unreasonable for Israel to be able to dominate the world in the Middle East, a place that has fought four wars.

    Because of this, after defeating the 44th Battle Group of the Horde Army, Weisberg no longer relied on others. After listening to Barak's objective evaluation of the "Attacker" drone, he nodded humbly, and then  Ask: "In that case, what do you think we should do now?"

    "While the tribal army has not mastered the performance of the 'Attacker' drone, they quickly opened the door to Zambia here and contacted the Eastern Front Group for support as soon as possible. This must be done quickly. The longer it takes, the 'Attacker'  The UAV will be greatly weakened by surprise, and once the Soviet advisers of the Horde Army have a rough idea of ??its capabilities, it will be really difficult to break out.¡±

    What Barak said was very pertinent, and Weisberg nodded in agreement. He could ask Da Da once to surprise the tribal army. The problem is that the Soviet advisers are not idiots. If they do it once or twice, others will find out.  The disadvantages of the "Attacker" drone, so the top priority is to put it away after it is built, and take advantage of the opening created by defeating the 44th Tribal Army Battle Group to quickly cover the retreat of the main force.

    ¡­¡­

    The subsequent development of the battle was indeed as Barak expected. Weisberg used the "Attacker" drone to catch the tribal army off guard several times. After successfully establishing an escape channel, the Soviet advisers immediately became alert and immediately collected information from the battlefield.  The wreckage of the "Attacker" drone, coupled with observations in actual combat, soon revealed the shortcomings of this drone.

    As a result, the 14.5mm anti-aircraft machine guns and high-power electronic jamming equipment were immediately brought to the front line. Weisberg's famous drone attack tactics immediately failed. However, by this time, the Alliance's Eastern Front Group had already withdrawn its main force to Zambia.  .

    The Soviet Union¡¯s anti-aircraft weapons and electronic jamming equipment were still a step too late.

    But no matter what, the contribution of the "Attacker" drone in the tribal army's retreat is an indisputable fact. Due to the excellent cost performance of the "Attacker" drone, the South African military did not hesitate to  Company h placed an additional order for 2,500 aircraft.

    Not only that, as the coalition forces retreated to Zambia, Barak was not idle. Based on his observations and in-depth understanding of the "Attacker" drone during this period, he submitted a sixteen-page report to the Israeli General Staff.

    It proposed a bold vision of using drones as a multi-functional attack platform, and based on this, the "Attacker" drone in the hands of South Africa was recommended to the Israeli "Harpy" project team.

    The reason is that, with its excellent aerodynamics, simple aerodynamics and unparalleled modification potential, it is like an eagle, a natural carrying platform for the "Harpy" project!
