Chapter 488 Magnetic Anomaly Detector

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Although it is a makeshift, Ascendas Aviation Corporation, which has been pondering European anti-submarine equipment for a long time, still came up with the best combination plan.

    The core of it are two parts, one is the comprehensive detection system located at the front of the component, and the other is the magnetic anomaly detector extending from the middle to the rear.

    The integrated detection system is a retractable search radar equipped by the French company Thomson based on the French Navy's Atlantic anti-submarine patrol aircraft. Its technical blueprint is the anaps-38 sea radar on the American S-2 anti-submarine patrol aircraft, and Thomson Company draws on its ingenuity  The unique design and retractable function were transplanted to the Atlantic anti-submarine patrol aircraft.

    However, the space for the No. 02 anti-submarine fuselage boxed component itself is limited, and the retractable mechanism is somewhat complex and takes up space. Therefore, Ascendas Aviation Corporation did not inherit its retractable model, but aerodynamically optimized the fairing.  , fixed on the front end of the No. 02 anti-submarine fuselage boxed assembly.

    The space thus saved is used to install a compact version of the acoustic detector and sonar receiver designed by the French company Thomson specifically for unmanned anti-submarine aircraft.

    The semi-cylindrical protrusion extending from the middle to the rear is a retractable magnetic anomaly detector provided by British Aerospace. The source of the technology also comes from the United States. The magnetic detectors on the S-2 and S-3 anti-submarine aircraft  The anomaly detector is this retractable structure.

    In the mid-1970s, the British self-developed Gannet anti-submarine aircraft wanted to be upgraded. One of the improvements was to install a set of retractable magnetic anomaly detectors on the tail similar to those on the S-2 and S-3 anti-submarine aircraft.

    The technology patents and samples have been obtained from the United States, and they are just waiting for the British government to spend a small amount of money.

    As a result, the British government at that time, under financial pressure, not only cut off the upgrade plan of the Gannet anti-submarine aircraft, but also thought that it was not enough, and simply cut the entire Gannet anti-submarine aircraft fleet.

    Faced with the British government¡¯s desperate behavior of cutting the leeks and then peeling the roots, the British Aerospace Corporation can be said to be crying without tears. The patents and samples bought at a large price cannot be used and can only be locked in the technical room and eat ashes.

    I thought that this deal was just a failure, but it turned out that the Actor Company had developed an unmanned anti-submarine aircraft. British Aerospace took a look at it, what a good taker, and without saying a word, the retractable magnetic missile was covered with a layer of dust.  The detectors were pulled out of the technical room, carefully packaged, and then thrown to the Actor Company.

    "However, the magnetic anomaly detector that is useless to British Aerospace Corporation is a rare good thing for Ascendas Aviation Corporation, the company behind the Actor Company.

    Because there is no such thing, the boxed components under the belly of No. 02 aircraft cannot be called anti-submarine mission components no matter how advanced they are. At best, they can only be said to be patrol and reconnaissance components with anti-submarine properties.

    The reason is very simple, just because the magnetic anomaly detector is the core detection equipment of the anti-submarine aircraft in addition to the acoustic detection system. Even in some specific environments, the magnetic anomaly detection equipment is more efficient and reliable than acoustic equipment.

    The reason for this is mainly because submarines can reduce their own acoustic signals through various means, but it is difficult to hide the all-metal shell in the earth's magnetic field environment. Especially during the movement of the submarine, the strong electromagnetic signals generated by magnetic cutting are difficult to hide.  Achieve complete coverage.

    It is based on this principle that the magnetic anomaly detector can accurately find submarines hiding on the seabed in the vast ocean.

    Without this set of equipment and only equipped with an acoustic system, it would not be so efficient. After all, the sonobuoys launched by anti-submarine aircraft are not very powerful and are also affected by natural environments such as ocean clutter and ocean currents, so the accuracy is not high.

    This is also the reason why many people called the Soviet Tu-142 a long-range maritime patrol aircraft instead of an anti-submarine patrol aircraft before it was equipped with a magnetic anomaly detector. The main reason is that in addition to its large size, the Tu-142  Beyond its long range, its anti-submarine effectiveness is actually not high, and is only one or two levels better than ordinary maritime patrol aircraft.

    Because of this, without the retractable magnetic anomaly detector provided by British Aerospace Corporation, the improved An-26 with the No. 02 component installed would be stuck on the technical path, which is the level of the Tu-142.

    But it¡¯s different with the magnetic anomaly detector, even though the interior of the An-26 cabin was so rough due to temporary modifications that even the seats were welded with steel bars and then put together with sponge cushions.

    Not to mention the air-tight equipment and air-conditioning equipment, there are no two hairs. The simplicity is more touching than the Qingshui House of later generations, which fully reflects the simple but not simple unique character of the fighting nation.

    Not to mention the comfortable and luxurious cockpit of the Highland Eagle C, even the second-class Highland Eagle B is inferior.

    But even so, the improved An-26 equipped with the boxed components under the No. 02 aircraft can still be called an anti-submarine patrol aircraft, because the retractable magnetic anomaly detector can detect underwater300 meters for accurate detection, and with the front-end sea search radar, it can search within a radius of 200 kilometers.

    Once a suspicious target is found, ten active and passive sonar buoys on both sides of the assembly can be released to position the submarine more accurately.

    The Soviet Union's B-79 "Foxtrot" class conventional submarine and the American "Archerfish" Sturgeon-class nuclear submarine were discovered precisely because of the cannon in the box assembly under the belly of No. 02.  The telescopic magnetic anomaly detector transmits strong magnetic signals in waves, displaying the dynamics of the two submarines clearly.

    It¡¯s just that the anti-submarine crew commanded by Zhou Jiwei handed over the Soviet conventional submarines to the 5506 ship commanded by Chen Fang, while he concentrated on dealing with the American nuclear submarines.

    "As a result, Zhou Jiwei was very happy that he had caught two submarines at once. Song Changzheng's unsightly words ruined all his good mood.

    ¡°Fly your plane!¡±

    Zhou Jiwei, who had been exposed, knew that he was in the wrong, so he simply stopped talking to Song Changzheng, and replied calmly, with a solemn look on his face: "Keep your speed, the fish below is closer than the one you caught just now.  Much more cunning.¡±

    Song Changzheng did not continue talking. After all, he was still on a mission, so he curled his lips and smiled, then held the joystick in front of him to keep the aircraft at a stable and low speed.

    At the same time, he turned on the intercom and prepared to report the current mission situation to the flagship of the Eastern Alliance Fleet. But just when Song Changzheng was about to open his mouth to call, a burst of noise came from the headset, instantly covering the originally clear call.

    For a while, several monitors in the cabin flashed wildly like a convulsion. Zhou Jiwei, who was still judging the submarine's position, was stunned for a moment, and then frowned: "It's electronic interference again, is it over?"
