Red Soviet Union Chapter 199

Leaping over the deck is to build a **** in front of the deck, so that the moment the fighter takes off from the deck, it obtains an upward elevation angle, which increases the lift of the fighter, but does not increase the speed of the fighter.

Therefore, although the British put forward the theory of leaping over the deck, and began to use these theories to build the invincible-class aircraft carrier, they only took off and landed the Sea Harrier. Now, there is no experience in the world that shows that heavy fighter jets use the leap. The deck is also able to take off!

But now, the Soviets did it! The narrow deck of the Soviets, that nondescript heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser thing, can actually take off and land a fighter like the MiG-25!

The Americans are quite surprised. The Soviet MiG-25 put a lot of pressure on the Americans. In the past, it only put pressure on the U.S. Air Force. Now, the U.S. Navy has also discovered that the Soviet Navy actually has a MiG-25 that operates at sea. Ability!

The first reaction of almost everyone is how is this possible? The Grumman company that got the news also conducted a special analysis, but the result made them unacceptable. They used the Tomcat fighter as a prototype and found that using the leap deck, the Tomcat fighter could take off with an air superiority mount!

If the Tomcat can take off from the leap deck, the Soviet MiG-25 must also have the ability to take off and land from an aircraft carrier!

Damn, will the US Navy have to take a detour after seeing the Soviet Navy? Otherwise, the other party will come out like this and fly to the top of their own head to show off their might!

Just as the American aircraft carrier formation retreated, the formation of the Soviet Pacific Fleet also ended this exploratory contact, and after sending a speedboat to pick up the helicopter pilots who fell into the water, they also turned around and returned to their home port.

"Andre, your action plan is fantastic!" In the battle command room on the bridge. Admiral Gorshkov said full of praise to Andrei.

No one thought that the Soviet Navy commander. Actually on this aircraft carrier!

When he heard Andrei's plan, Gorshkov couldn't control his mood. He insisted on staying on the aircraft carrier and participating in this operation. As an absolute supporter of the aircraft carrier, Gorshkov obviously wanted to come out and have fun.

In this way, he occupied the cabin on the aircraft carrier that was originally reserved for Admiral Duarte, commander of the Pacific Fleet. Admiral Duarte, who was also eager to follow, could only squeeze into the first mate's cabin.

Andrei stood by, looking through the glass. Looking at the empty deck, he said, "In future naval battles, we also need to compete for air supremacy. If we cannot obtain air supremacy, the warship formation will not be able to play its due level, and if we cannot compete with the US aircraft carrier formation, we will not be able to cover. Our nuclear submarine."

"Yeah, this time, we will quickly write a material and report it, hoping to get the approval of the Supreme Committee." Gorshkov said: "We can only build a real aircraft carrier with fixed-wing fighters. At the same time, we will suggest that the Mikoyan Design Bureau work on the study of the MiG-25 ship.”

MiG-25 on board? Andrei shook his head immediately.

The take-off weight of the MiG-25 exceeds 37 tons. The take-off distance is more than one thousand meters, and it is absolutely impossible to take off and land on an aircraft carrier by relying on its own power!

The most powerful carrier-based aircraft in the U.S. aircraft carrier fleet, the Tomcat, is only 33 tons when fully loaded. It needs the power of the catapult to be fully turned on and sailing at full speed against the wind before it can be ejected. Moreover, they rarely reach 33 tons to take off. weight. Normally twenty-five tons normal take-off weight.

Although Andrei has always recommended the use of catapults, the research on this thing has not been so smooth. It will soon be installed on the aircraft carrier, even if it can agree to the development of a new aircraft carrier. Is the first one still mainly based on the leap deck, and let the MiG-25 take off from the leap deck? Just thinking about it is enough of a headache.

The later aircraft carrier Kuznetsov was equipped with Su-33 carrier-based aircraft. This heavy-duty air fighter took off from the aircraft carrier. In order to allow the Su-33 to take off with a full load, the Kuznetsov took off. In addition to that near take-off line, there is a long-range 185-meter take-off line that allows the Su-33 to take off at a weight of 32 tons.

However, this far take-off line will seriously affect the deck operation, and, most importantly, it limits the use of high sea conditions. After all, the carrier-based aircraft takes off with its own power. It will cause the plane to deviate laterally when it takes off, and it will fall into the sea before it can fly.

Take off the 37-ton MiG-25? It is absolutely impossible. Even if the MiG-25 is a steel structure body, it can withstand the overload of take-off and landing.

"Our MiG-25 is an interceptor, not a fighter. It takes care of the high-altitude and high-speed performance too much, and the actual combat performance is not good. Now we can be unscrupulous over the US aircraft carrier formation because the Americans can't reach us. I guess , the Americans must have built up their stamina to develop new anti-aircraft missiles, and when the launch height of the US Navy's ship-borne anti-aircraft missiles reaches 30,000 meters, our current actions must be stopped.” Andre Said: "So, now we spend a lot of effort to get the MiG-25 on the ship, which is not suitable."

Andre's words, let everyone nod~www.mtlnovel.com~ It is true, the MiG-25 is not all-powerful, it takes care of the high-altitude and high-speed performance too much, and it really fights with the American Tomcat fighter, only Only skilled pilots can play to their advantage. Interceptors and fighters have different responsibilities.

"Then what fighter would we use?" Gorshkov asked.

"In the long run, if we have a new generation of fighter jets that can compete with the US f-15 fighter jets, it is most appropriate to use this jet fighter to convert it into a carrier-based type." Andre said: "And now , In order to save the emergency, we can improve the MiG-23 into a carrier-based aircraft to temporarily meet the needs."

After all, Andre's level is not enough. If Andre said something like t-10 now, it would definitely arouse the vigilance of many people. How did Andre know? Even if Andrei has a good relationship with Sukhoi's chief engineer Simonov and others, he can't let Andrei know about this, let alone the MiG-23 of the Mikoyan Design Bureau.

In fact, the work of improving the MiG-23 into a carrier-based aircraft started as early as 1972. At that time, as a supporting project for the Eagle aircraft carrier, the Mikoyan Design Bureau carried out large-scale improvements to the MiG-23 in hand. (To be continued.)
