Chapter 548 Can helicopters be produced?

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The early warning aircraft scared off the Tu-16 reconnaissance aircraft commanded by Churkin. The subsequent aviation assault formation successfully arrived at the designated sea area, launched an air-launched anti-ship missile, and accurately hit the target ship.

    The next day, all major domestic official media reported the matter on their main pages, including the media affiliated with the army.

    The photo of the H-6 bomber launching missiles was published on the front page and caused quite a stir.

    But in Cam Ranh Bay, the most discussed thing is not the tough H-6 bomber or the domineering long-range anti-ship missile, but the early warning aircraft that caught a glimpse.

    "But compared to Churkin's oath, the vast majority of Soviet officers and soldiers, including the commanders of the Soviet troops stationed in Cam Ranh Bay, did not take Churkin's statement seriously.

    It¡¯s very simple. Can China have an early warning aircraft?  How can it be?  Do they have such ability?

    If so, how could the Soviet Union¡¯s highly efficient intelligence network not detect it?

    Therefore, China¡¯s so-called early warning aircraft is most likely a false proposition. Churkin was either nervous and misunderstood, or he was looking for a reason to blame the failure.

    There is a high probability that it is the latter, because after the Tu-16 reconnaissance aircraft returned, technicians did not find any abnormalities related to the early warning aircraft through the signals recorded above.

    Because of this, many people even gave Churkin the nickname Mirage, which means that the so-called early warning aircraft he saw should be a mirage. Except for the real picture, everything else is illusory, insinuating that Churkin is blaming the blame.  Top-notch skills.

    Churkin almost went crazy. He wanted to run to Qiongdao immediately, carry the early warning aircraft back, and tell his superiors and colleagues that he was not lying. China really had early warning aircraft.

    However, the cold reality told Churkin that no matter how full his ideas were, he had to become a backbone of all kinds. If he even entered the borders of China, why would he carry an early warning aircraft back?  Well you can dream!

    Churkin here was tortured so much that he could only daydream about the Chinese early warning aircraft, but Zhuang Jianye, who was urgently recalled to the country, was not as painful as Culkin.

    Because the so-called "early warning aircraft" that Churkin glimpsed in front of his eyes was developed by Ascendas Group.

    Why is it said to participate in the development? Because Ascendas Group only provided the platform for the TM-9 aircraft. As for the installation of the radar and subsequent modifications, it was left to the Air Force Aviation Surveying and Mapping Brigade and the China Electric Power Research Institute and other units.

    This is not because Ascendas Group does not want to take over this large project that has potential in the future. The key is that it does not have the testing equipment and debugging capabilities for advanced radar components.

    Of course, being able to provide a platform is also very meaningful to Ascendas Group. In any case, this proves that the TM-9 aircraft is very excellent as a platform.

    Otherwise, the Air Force has Yun-7, Yun-8, Yun-12 and the An-26 equipped with a D-46ml turboprop engine, as well as the flagship product of the Ascendas Group, the Yun-6. It would not choose from so many products, but choose a somewhat unsophisticated one.  TM-9 aircraft.

    No other reason, just because the comprehensive performance and balance of the TM-9 aircraft are more in line with the modification needs of the Air Force Aviation Surveying and Mapping Brigade.

    There is no way, who makes the "water search" radar imported from the UK be too squeamish.

    The equipment will not work if it is too cold, and it will not work if it is too hot. The most important thing is that vibration and noise must be controlled in a low range, otherwise the entire radar system will be interfered with.

    The British can control similar problems very well. After all, the old industrial countries have a solid foundation there, so this aspect is not a problem at all.

    However, it is a bit of a headache to switch to China. The Yun7, Yun8, and Yun12 are not only noisy due to reasons such as engines, fuselage structures, and materials, but also the internal environment of the cabin is difficult to protect. The in-depth improvement project of the Yun8 has been  Get on the horse and start adding airtight cabins.

    ¡°However, this improvement project has just been launched, and it will take several years to see results.

    If this happened in the past, the Air Force could only wait and watch, but now it is different. Ascendas Group has an aircraft platform with excellent noise and environmental ceiling control.

    Although it is a bit smaller, the "Islander" small aircraft, the initial carrier of the British "water-searching" radar, is also small. It is equipped with the "water-searching" radar and transformed into a small airborne early warning aircraft.

    So don¡¯t be afraid of small things. The key is to be able to integrate them. The key is to complete the Air Force¡¯s use and research of early warning aircraft.

    So the Air Force Aviation Surveying and Mapping Brigade responsible for this task conducted a comprehensive inspection of the aircraft models affiliated to the Ascendas Group, and finally selected the TM-9 aircraft after some weighing.

    This is not to say that the Yun-6 is not good enough, but because the aerodynamic layout of the Yun-6 is not conducive to the placement of the "water search" radar.

    On the other hand, the TM-9 aircraft is notSame, because of the low-wing and T-shaped vertical tail layout, the center of gravity of the aircraft is further forward, which is very beneficial for the radar to be installed in the middle and rear of the fuselage.

    ¡°Coupled with the TM-9 aircraft¡¯s range of more than 3,000 kilometers, practical ceiling of more than 9,000 meters, and high-end business jet-level noise control and comfortable environment, it is an ideal platform for the ¡°water search¡± radar.

    So the TM-9 radar warning aircraft with a cylindrical radome on the back of the aircraft, two radar identification displays and a communication equipment in the cabin was born.

    The military codename is Yun-6x radar warning aircraft.

    The reason why it is called a radar warning aircraft rather than an early warning aircraft is mainly because the Air Force Aviation Surveying and Mapping Brigade has reviewed the positioning of the US military's early warning aircraft several times and found that there is a big gap in the actual performance of the Y-6x, and it cannot achieve the astonishing performance of the US military's early warning aircraft.  , so it was directly downgraded to a radar warning aircraft.

    This also proves from another aspect that the biggest American fans are our domestic troops.

    But whether it is an early warning aircraft or a radar warning aircraft, the Y-6x has allowed the aviation force to make breakthroughs in command and combat styles. Because of this, after the maritime conflict in March, the country began to pay attention to the construction of air power.  The demand for Yun 6x surged instantly.

    Zhuang Jianye was urgently recalled to the country because his superiors came to him to discuss increasing production.

    Zhuang Jianye naturally had nothing to say about this, and naturally responded to every request, so he quickly signed a sales contract for 12 aircraft with the Air Force at a price of 6 million yuan per aircraft.

    And gave priority production rights to these 12 aircraft. As for the TM-9 aircraft needed by Thailand, Zhuang Jianye arranged it behind with a stroke of his pen. As for whether the Royal Thai Aerospace Corporation would express dissatisfaction, Zhuang Jianye did not even consider it.  , dissatisfied, success, you produce it yourself.

    However, Zhuang Jianye estimates that unless the Royal Thai Aerospace Corporation has a headache, it will do this. It is most likely that it will fully support it, because Ascendas Group produces radar warning aircraft with the nature of early warning aircraft, which are high-end products in the world's weapons and equipment. Generally speaking, small and medium-sized countries  I can't afford to play at all.

    If the TM-9 aircraft can be used as a platform for this type of aircraft, it means that Thailand can also become a country that "independently develops and produces" early warning aircraft in the near future. The benefits to Thailand are simply self-evident.

    Facts have proved that this is indeed the case. When Thailand learned about the situation, instead of being angry because of the delay in the order, it wanted to join in. The Royal Thai Aerospace Corporation would not frown at the price.

    However, this matter is not something Zhuang Jianye can decide, not to mention that in addition to transporting the 6x radar warning aircraft, he now has a more important thing to consider, that is, the factory leaders of the Xiangzhou Aircraft Manufacturing Factory who passed the previous investigation and inspection came to discuss trusteeship  When the issue of production conversion was raised, an idea was suddenly raised that shocked everyone at Ascendas Group, that is, whether they could continue to produce helicopters.
