Chapter 132 Electromagnetic gun drone! Tank nightmare!
After thinking about it, Su Heng finally said:

"Theoretically there is no problem, but I personally feel that it does not make much sense to install electromagnetic guns on fighter planes."

"Although I don't know much about military affairs, when I designed the Sword Ten Kai, Sword Eleven Kai, and Sword Twenty-One, I had conducted relevant technical demonstrations and even conducted simulations through intelligent systems."

"The future air combat model must be long-distance beyond-visual-range strikes. The outcome of the war depends on missiles and radars, not cannons."

"In my previous intelligent simulations, I fought with all the main fighters of Sword Ten, Sword Eleven and Black and White Eagle."

"When fighting against the Black and White Eagle Fighting Falcons, our fighters still had a chance to engage in close combat with the opponent. However, when facing the Black and White Eagle Fighting Falcons, our fighters had only a 6.83 chance of close combat. %"

"And when facing the Black and White Eagle Raptor fighter jets, there is no chance of close combat at all!"

"During the simulated battle with the Raptor fighter, I conducted three simulations. The final results of the three simulations were the same, ending with our record of 100 to zero! All battles were almost beyond visual range, and the Raptor fighter was locked Our fighter jets ran away immediately after launching their missiles."

"The simulation results have proven the limitations of weapons such as machine guns. Based on such combat results, the three fighter planes I designed later, Jian Shi Kai, Jian 11 Kai and Jian 21, do not have machine guns."

"Later, I also used these three fighters to conduct data simulations with the Black and White Eagle fighters, and the final result was the same as before."

There are many military commanders in the National Defense Force who put forward the war concept that machine guns are useless, like Su Heng.

He is only responsible for technology. As for strategy and tactics, that is not his field of study.

For so many years, the two factions have never reached a consensus, and both sides have their own opinions and opinions.

"All in all, I personally feel that there is no need for us to install electromagnetic guns on fighter planes."

Under such an environment, even the fifth-generation aircraft developed by the National Defense Force in Tianfu still has room for modification of the cannon.

After a pause, Su Heng continued: "Of course, if Mr. Qian still feels that it is necessary, then I can also help with modifications, such as the electromagnetic gun in the hands of the fire support power armor. The total weight is only one More than a hundred kilograms, plus two hundred rounds of ammunition, it is less than three hundred kilograms, which can be put on a fighter plane..."

He has said everything that needs to be said. What he chooses next is none of his business.

The radicals believe that although Black and White Eagle is the first country to master stealth fighter jets, Black and White Eagle itself is still trying to cross the river by feeling the stones!

The first one to master doesn’t mean it’s the best or the best!

But similarly, there are also many commanders who advocate retaining machine guns.

After saying this, Su Heng didn't say anything more.

After listening to what Su Heng said, Qian Zhizhong also fell silent.

The former are relatively radical radicals, while the latter are relatively conservative conservatives.

What the National Defense Force should do is to learn from others' strengths and offset their weaknesses. While learning from others' advancements, they should also discard others' shortcomings!
Instead of following one another, indiscriminately, collecting all the good and bad...

"Although the Raptors are stealth fighters, their ferrite-based coating has a poor stealth effect. At the same time, I upgraded their radars with the Jian Shi Gai. In front of them, the Raptors and Fighting Falcons are not as effective as those of the Raptors." There is no difference between fighter planes..."

"When facing the three advanced fighters of Jian Shi Kai, the Black and White Eagle fighters also have no chance of close combat. Except for the Raptor, even the Raptor, which is also a stealth fighter, has no chance to fight with us at close range. !”

There are so many different professions. As a technician, what Su Heng dislikes the most is a layman commanding an expert. Similarly, he will not command other people's experts as a layman...

To be honest, they are also a little confused about the future war model.

The biggest reason for conservatives is that the Black and White Eagle's raptors all have machine guns!
According to conservatives, the Black and White Eagle is the first country in the world to master stealth fighters and conduct large-scale production. Their stealth fighters still retain cannons, which is enough to show that cannons are still useful...

Instead, he quietly waited for Qian Zhizhong's reply.

He also didn't expect that Su Heng had done so much work before studying the three Jianshi Kai fighters.

If after the fighter aircraft comes off the production line, actual combat exercises prove that the cannon is indeed useful, the cannon can be installed at any time...

Even before, when I saw that the three fighters of Su Heng's Jian Shi Kai did not have cannons, some people asked whether to install cannons on the fighters...

In fact, even Qian Zhizhong himself was wavering.

He's not a conservative, but he's not a radical either.

His identity is not suitable for taking any side alone.

Of course, he is actually more conservative at heart.

After all, the previous fighter jets of the National Defense Force had major flaws in terms of radar and missile technology. Not to mention hitting every target, a 40% hit rate was already an extremely good result!

In this case, the cannon cannot be completely abandoned.

But now, Su Heng's statement made Qian Zhizhong feel a little shaken.

Indeed, the performance of their previous fighters was indeed limited, including radar and missiles.

But now?

It’s completely different now!
In the past few months, while assisting Su Heng in the production of fighter planes, they have not been idle internally.

Data modeling and data analysis are carried out on Sword Ten Changes, Sword Eleven Changes, and Sword Twenty-One almost every day.

The final conclusion is that any of these three fighters has the ability to be equal to or even crush the Raptor!
And the reason why they say they are not inferior to them is entirely because the missiles of their National Defense Force are not good. Just like the 10,000-ton large-scale propeller given to Qinshan, the fighter planes Su Heng gave to Qian Zhizhong also have no missiles...

Under these countless data simulations, the conservative rhetoric has begun to waver!
After a long silence, Qian Zhizhong sighed slightly.

It seems that there is indeed no need to use machine guns.

As Su Heng said, the future war model will inevitably develop in the direction of beyond visual range. The two sides will fight dozens or even hundreds of kilometers away. Who will fight with you at close range?
Fighters costing hundreds of millions, plus excellent pilots that cost tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars to train. Who wouldn’t feel sad about the loss?
But just when Qian Zhizhong was about to give up, Qin Shan suddenly said:
"Xiao Su, it is indeed useless to install electromagnetic guns on fighter jets, but what about ground attack and support helicopters?"

Hearing this, Su Heng was startled. Helicopter?
He hadn't thought about this.

Speaking of helicopters, the image of the helicopter he built two years ago appeared in Su Heng's mind almost instantly.

Then, almost subconsciously, Su Heng began to demonstrate the combination of helicopters and electromagnetic guns.

Not only Su Heng, but Qian Zhizhong and Qian Zhizhong also started to think after hearing what Qin Shan said.

Helicopters, or gunships, are not a new weapon.

As early as more than half a century ago, Black and White Eagle had put helicopters into actual combat use.

And in many previous oil wars, the Patch helicopter gunships like the Black and White Eagle also shined!

That amazing record was once legendary as a tank killer!
On the Blue Star Network, whether at home or abroad, there are countless fans of the Patch helicopter gunship!

To this day, on the Dragon Kingdom's Internet, when it comes to Dragon Kingdom's weapons and equipment, the Patch gunship must be a classic that is used by those shepherd dogs, public servants, or those foreigners to ridicule the Dragon Kingdom!

And their Dragon Kingdom has been engaged in research and development in this area, but to this day, the Dragon Kingdom's advanced armed helicopters are still in the laboratory stage...

And if this electromagnetic sniper cannon can be put on Wuzhi, and paired with an intelligent biological control helmet that can be called a plug-in, then their Wuzhi will probably be transformed into a nightmare for the enemy!
Just imagine, the electromagnetic sniper cannon in the hands of the fire support armor cannot even withstand the frontal armor of the Ram Tank within two thousand meters!
Then if the initiation attack comes again, who can withstand it?

You know, this electromagnetic sniper cannon has a titanium alloy penetration depth of up to 150 millimeters even from a distance of 6,000 meters!
If replaced by an ordinary homogeneous steel plate, it would be almost 300 mm to 450 mm!

What kind of tank has a Tianling cover with more than 300 to 400 millimeters of armor?
And besides this terrifying power.

There is another aspect of this electromagnetic gun that makes Qiao Zhenhai even more excited, and that is the cost!
The reason why fighter jets are useless for equipping electromagnetic guns is that, apart from the inappropriate future air combat mode, the more important point is that fighter jets fly too fast and the cannon's firing range is too narrow, which does not give you much shooting time at all.

And the electromagnetic gun can't turn or track. If it hits, it will hit. If it doesn't hit, it really won't hit.

Unlike armed helicopters, armed helicopters can hover and can adjust their flight altitude and speed at any time.

You don't have to worry about shooting out of bounds at all.

Without this concern, the advantages of the electromagnetic gun will be infinitely magnified!

That electromagnetic gun is more powerful than air-to-ground rockets or even air-to-ground missiles, but its launch cost is only the cost of one projectile!

How much does a railgun shell cost?

Although Qiao Zhenhai hasn't asked in detail, he thinks it won't be that expensive anyway. Even if it's higher, the price of a 30mm shell can equal the price of a heavy artillery shell.

But that is completely incomparable to rockets and missiles!
And the projectiles are so small that an armed helicopter can carry at least a thousand rounds!
The price/performance ratio is almost unbeatable!
Thinking of this, Qiao Zhenhai's eyes flickered slightly, and he became extremely excited.

Even Qiao Zhenhai's thoughts were diverging at this moment.

For example, the electromagnetic close-in defense gun that Qin Shan mentioned before!
What would be the effect if that thing were moved to the ground?
Electromagnetic gun armed helicopter, electromagnetic close-in defense gun ground air defense vehicle.

Plus ground fire support armored forces!
Electromagnetic gun tank!
"hiss……"

Thinking of such a scene, Qiao Zhenhai couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

My spirit was trembling at this moment!
Not scared, but excited!

At this moment, he was even a little impatient and wanted to take out all those things and equip them with troops!

If such a lineup is really put into use, who will dare to speak loudly in front of the National Defense Force?

Those ghost guys have to kowtow to God before they leave!
I don’t know how much time passed, but Su Heng’s voice finally sounded again:
"Theoretically speaking, there is no problem at all if the electromagnetic gun is mounted on an armed helicopter."

Hearing this, whether it was Qin Shan, Qiao Zhenhai, or Qian Zhizhong, all three of them showed joy on their faces.

At this moment, Su Heng spoke again:

"But Mr. Qin, as far as I know, the armies of various countries now have anti-aircraft missiles, right? On the modern battlefield, can low-altitude, low-speed targets like armed helicopters really survive the attack of anti-aircraft missiles? "

Facing Su Heng's inquiry, the three of them were startled.

Then, after looking at each other, the three of them laughed:

"Xiao Su, you don't have to worry about this. Just as you think, modern armies of various countries have anti-aircraft missiles, but don't think too highly of them."

"These large ones are basically very bulky. You have to carry a team of radars and personnel and equipment wherever you go. Otherwise, if you take out the missile alone, it will be a piece of scrap metal!"

"On the frontline battlefield of emergency support, it is difficult for this kind of thing to appear immediately!"

"And even if it does happen, modern warfare is about three-dimensionality. We are not one of those small countries that have not even established a complete military system. We have all three armies. If there is a fight, it will definitely be a joint effort among the three armies. It does not mean that Which military branch goes out alone to fight the enemy alone on the battlefield? This is not how battles are fought..."

"It is true that armed helicopters are afraid of anti-aircraft missiles, but we still have the fighter jets, twin-tail bombers, twin-tail reconnaissance aircraft you provided in the sky, and no matter what, there are also precision-guided missiles!"

"Once such large targets appear, we can carry out a devastating strike on them as soon as possible!"

"As for small air defense systems and individual air defense missiles, the current effective attack range of these things is almost six kilometers or even five kilometers."

"As for Xiaosu, your electromagnetic sniper cannon has a homogeneous steel plate penetration of three to four hundred millimeters six kilometers away, and it has good strike capabilities even ten kilometers away!"

"As long as we pull the helicopter to a safe distance, even if there are anti-aircraft missiles, they can't do anything to us. The only troublesome thing is that this distance is far beyond the visual range of our pilots. If we want to provide precise support, there are some difficulty……"

Hearing this, Su Heng was thoughtful.
