I Found A Planet

What are the criteria for dividing sixth-generation fighters?

For this specific standard, all the countries that develop the sixth-generation aircraft are groping, and they are all crossing the river by feeling the stones, so there is no clear and unified standard.

But these few things must be done:

First, the artificial intelligence system is used to fight, and the combat effectiveness is comparable to that of the top pilots.

Two, more powerful stealth performance, not easy to be found by radar systems.

Third, stronger situational awareness.

Four, revolutionary airborne weapons.

Fifth, super maneuverability and wider combat range.

Among them, the most critical fifth is determined by the performance of the engine.

However, after nearly a hundred years of development, the traditional turbofan engine technology has come to an end.

No matter how good the materials used in this type of engine, no matter how good the design is, no matter how complicated the structure is, its fuel efficiency is still difficult to exceed 35%.

After approaching the limit, it is almost impossible to break through.

But the detonation engine is different.

The working principle of the detonation engine is somewhat similar to the traditional diesel engine and gasoline engine. By "detonating" the fuel, the fuel is burned in an instant, and the gas is accelerated to more than 2000m/s, and then injected from the tail nozzle to transform into a huge thrust.

Generally, the fuel efficiency of high-performance diesel engines and gasoline engines can reach 40%, 45% or even close to 50%.

Detonation engines can also achieve this level.

In addition, compared with the turbofan engine weighing more than 1 ton and 1.5 ton, the detonation engine with simple structure and smaller size can be compressed to less than 500 kilograms.

The saved weight allows for more fuel.

Due to the thorough fuel in the detonation engine, high thrust-to-weight ratio, and low residual heat, the maneuverability and infrared stealth capabilities of fighter jets will be significantly improved.

And because human pilots cannot overcome the huge load brought by high maneuverability, the sixth-generation fighters are generally unmanned fighters... This saves a part of the space and weight for filling more fuel.

Therefore, compared with the 3,000-5,000-kilometer range of the fourth- and fifth-generation fighters using turbofan engines, the range of the sixth-generation fighters using detonation engines can be increased to 6,000-10,000 kilometers.

It means that the time in the air is prolonged and the combat radius is doubled.

As long as there are enough weapons in the magazine, a sixth-generation fighter can kill opponents several times its size.

Even take advantage of the range and use "kite tactics" to consume the opponent to death.

The detonation engine brings to the sixth-generation fighters an absolute generational advantage, and can slaughter backward opponents in various ways.

besides.

The detonation engine can also be installed on weapons such as missiles and rockets, which not only greatly increases the range of these weapons, but also increases the mobility of missiles or rockets.

The mobility is improved, so when used as an anti-aircraft weapon, it can easily intercept warheads with a large Mach number.

The improved mobility, used as an offensive weapon, will greatly increase the failure rate of the enemy's interception system, and the missile defense system built with hundreds of billions of dollars will instantly become a sieve.

The emergence of the detonation engine can be said to have broken the balance of power among major military powers, allowing the country that took the lead in breaking through this technology to gain a huge military advantage at once.

Obviously, this advantage has been obtained by country Z... Just after the first flight of the domestically produced sixth-generation fighter was announced, military powers all over the world understood this.

In fact, many countries are researching the detonation engine, including the M country, which has spent billions of dollars in it, but it has not been able to solve the problems of precise control of the detonation engine, maintenance and power coupling, etc. This kind of engine is too difficult to control up.

The people of country Z have overcome the technical difficulties and successfully applied it to the sixth generation fighter.

For this breakthrough, the whole world was shocked.

The media from all over the world are reporting with horrifying headlines and mixed content.

"Russian Pravda" said: "Country Z has become the first country to successfully develop a sixth-generation fighter, and has established a one-to-two-generation lead over our so-called fifth-generation fighter Su-57 and the fourth-generation fighter that is the main force. Now we can't be glad that country Z is our friendly neighbor, and we can't expect our aircraft design bureau to come up with an identical sixth-generation fighter right away. We just hope that our leaders will go to country Z with the money and buy a few six-generation fighters from people of country Z. Generation fighters... Put down your poor self-esteem, the people of country Z are indeed better than us."

A report in the "German Times" titled "Empire Weakness": "April 15, remember this meaningful day. From this day on, the hegemony of the most powerful empire on the planet finally declared its weakness. The significance of this is no less than that of the disintegration of the Soviet Union more than 30 years ago. This is depressing bad news, and it may also bring some positive changes to the world, but in any case... the era of the multipolar world has arrived."

The British "Times" said: "It is time to adjust our foreign policy. Over the years, we have gone too far with country M. We have lost huge economic benefits, lost a lot of development opportunities, and even brought ourselves into a dangerous situation. In the situation, we are only a small country, and we should take a safe and balanced diplomatic route... It is said that the sixth-generation fighter jets of country Z have a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, but the United Kingdom is only 6,000 kilometers away from country Z, so we should listen to the suggestions of the people of country Z."

"Paper Cat Observer" said: "It's fake, it's just a model, it can't be real!"

...

Country M.

Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

Inside the chief's office.

The president's private secretary stood in front of Warren Turner, holding a dismissal document in his hand:

"Mr. Turner, Mr. President is very angry. He is appalled by your incompetence."

"The people of country Z successfully flew the sixth-generation fighter for the first time. You didn't know anything about such important information in advance."

"Your incompetence has shamed country M, and we didn't even have time to announce that country M's sixth-generation fighter jet has successfully made its maiden flight. It is you who have made country Z one step ahead." Although the traditional turbofan engine is still used.

"You were dismissed Mr. Turner. Several staff members suggested that you go to a court-martial and receive a due trial, but Mr. President thought you had made some contributions and only gave you the lightest punishment. Get out now, this office There will be a successor in the office soon."

The private secretary looked at him contemptuously.

"OK."

Warren Turner nodded, signed the dismissal document, took off his uniform, put on ordinary people's clothes, and left the CIA under the guidance and discussion of his subordinates and colleagues in the past.

He lowered his head, looked at the ground, and walked a little slowly.

He was not depressed and accepted the result.

He was just thinking, why did it become like this?

Counting his actions in recent years, in order to please the Congress and the President, and to prove his ability, he was very obsessed with doing some "wet work". Through many rogue methods, he achieved his goal and safeguarded the interests of country M.

but now……

Country Z's sixth-generation fighter jet took its first flight.

What's the use of his "wet work"?

Pulling from the back twice, stumbling forward, and saying bad things to others, can it stop the rise of country Z?

Useless!

It's just a trail!

In front of the sixth-generation fighters of country Z, it looks so low-level and ridiculous.

Like a clown!

The competition between countries is all about hard power. It depends on who has mastered the most advanced technology and used some indiscriminate means. It seems to be cheap for a while, but once the crisis comes, it will soon be revealed.

For example, in the face of the sixth-generation fighter planes of country Z, the fourth-generation and fifth-generation fighter planes of country M, they will face the ending of mowing grass... This is the real cruelty.

Warren Turner could only murmur: "God bless us, let our scientists develop the sixth-generation fighter as soon as possible, I can lose, but in this field, country M must not lose!"

The weather is so cold, but today must not wither!
