"Our data refreshes quickly."
"Not as far as we can see."
"Our processors are programmable."
"Not as far as we can see."
"Our man-machine interface is better, so it can be operated by a single person, and there is no need to set up a radar officer."
"Not as far as we can see."
No matter what Moore said, Nathan responded with these words, not as far as we could see. This one advantage is enough. If you want to be a small early warning aircraft, how can you not look far away
The flight speed is very fast. If you fly at a speed of Mach 3, it is almost one kilometer per second, and a distance of one hundred kilometers, which is less than two minutes. The reaction time is very tight. The detection distance means that there is a reaction time of four minutes, which is very generous.
As long as the radar sees far, that's enough, how can it compare
Moore was flushed with anger. What's the use of seeing far away? If you can’t see clearly, if the refresh is not fast enough, it is useless at all.
However, the king of the bs country does not look at these things. In fact, he knows much better than the layman. After all, he is also a pilot. However, his vision is limited. It is impossible to see further and see the future.
In his eyes, it is good to see far.
It's like mentioning the MiG-25 radar, everyone talks about it, and can burn rabbits to death. This is enough, and people immediately feel how powerful and abnormal this radar is, but in fact it is a tasteless one.
Now, Nathan is just fooling the king of the bs country, and he is absolutely confident. When he keeps saying that his radar is looking far away, he is obviously the dominant party. Just look at Moore's expression like a cockfighting failure.
At this time, Moore also realized the problem. He can no longer be entangled on the radar, nor can he be entangled on the missiles. The missiles of other people can also shoot far away, which makes the king of the bs country more excited.
Not to mention radar, but also aerodynamics. Obviously, the king of Bs likes variable swept wings, so I can only talk about engines.
"Our engines have high thrust and high thrust-to-weight ratio. According to the energy air combat theory, our aircraft has more outstanding performance and will occupy an advantageous position in air combat confrontation." Moore said.
The engine of the F-15 is a generation ahead, the real third-generation engine. In contrast, what is the engine of the Tomcat fighter? It evolved from the engine of the attack aircraft. The second-generation engine has a thrust-to-weight ratio of only 5 and the overall thrust-to-weight ratio is only 0.7.
The F-15 engine has a thrust-to-weight ratio of 8 and the overall thrust-to-weight ratio exceeds 1. What does this mean? Your own F-15 fighter can easily climb vertically.
The so-called theory of relying on missiles to win the world is outdated. The experience of the Vietnam War shows that the maneuverability of fighter jets is very important. Fighter mafia put forward the theory of energy air combat, which has been considered correct.
Depending on what you say, you can be arrogant and say that your radar is good, can you still say that your engine is good
Hearing Moore's words, Nathan smiled in front of him: "Really? So how about we have a confrontation drill today?"
When it comes to engines, Nathan has a lot of opportunities for countermeasures. For example, although the opponent's engine has advanced technical indicators, its reliability is quite poor. As long as you mention reliability, you can definitely pit the F-15 to death.
But that was too mean, Nathan didn't want to use it.
After all, that would shame America.
In fact, the two sides originally introduced the characteristics of their aircraft, but after Moore’s dispute, Nathan was not in the mood to continue to speak with him. Whose aircraft is better? Should we engage in a confrontation drill? Do you know it
Hearing this, the king of bs's eyes flashed with excitement, and he was about to clap his hands to welcome him. The angry Moore, when he saw the expression of the bs king, instantly reacted and was almost taken away. Go to the ditch!
Engage in confrontation drills
Yes, if you really fight in an air battle, Moore doesn't think his F-15 will fall behind, but now he can't, because apart from the plane, the pilot is the most important thing to decide the outcome of the confrontation.
McDonnell Douglas sent test pilots, but now Nathan is flying the Tomcat. This victory is definitely hanging.
The test pilots are to fly out of the various flight envelopes of the aircraft, to study whether the various performances of the aircraft meet the design indicators, and the danger is also great. It can be said that the test pilots are in danger at any time, and the plane crashes during the test flight. Normal.
At the same time, because the test pilots have been working with the aircraft since the beginning of the aircraft development, they are quite proficient in the aircraft, and it is easy to fly out of the realm of man-machine integration. Therefore, when the king of the bs country wants to watch the flight show, They immediately sent their most experienced test pilots.
Flying various maneuvers is definitely a good hand, but it is different to engage in confrontation.
Test pilots are not combatants and do not fly all kinds of air combat confrontation actions. On the contrary, flying masters like Nathan have accumulated strong confrontation experience.
Over Vietnam, in Alaska, in Miramar, Nathan has accumulated a lot of air combat experience, and he is also a good player in the Flying Tomcat fighter. It can even be said that, not to mention the Tomcat, even the F-4. Fighter, Nathan can also control it to defeat the F-15.
The instructors of the U.S. Naval Fighter Weapons School specialize in teaching air combat skills. Doesn’t the level need to be said? If you fight against the F-15, will you still not be able to sell the aircraft in the future
Not only the bs country, other countries, Israel, etc., know that the Tomcat fighter fought against the F-15, and the result is easy to win, then I am afraid that it will lose foreign orders in the future.
Will it even make the Air Force lose confidence and purchase Tomcat fighters instead
There is a precedent for this. You must know that the original F-4 was developed for the navy.
"No, no, let's do the flight show according to the original plan." Moore said.
"Why, scared?" Watching Moore retreat, Nathan continues to be aggressive, knowing he will lose, right
The king of the bs country is also very interested. He is very proficient in English. He understands the words of the two and can understand the tone of voice. So he immediately prepared to make an inch and promote this wonderful confrontation.
At this moment, Kissinger said: "Follow the original plan. Air confrontation will be dangerous. For the safety of His Majesty the King, we still watch the flight show, which is also very exciting."
Air confrontation, if you fly far, you can't see it here, it's boring, if you confront the base above, if there is a collision or something, the people below are also in danger.
Safety comes first, and Kissinger can't fault it. (End of this chapter)
