Last month, the United Statesb-21"Raider".BombersThe success of the first flight indicates that the fighter is about to enter the "quasi-service" stage. This news has attracted a lot of attention and reports, **most adopted withChina and RussiaExistingto render the contrastb-21's lead. However, according to Russian media reports,China and RussiaThe response has been masteredb-21technology, so that it does not have a formidable threat.
b-21It was declared by the American company Northrop Grumman as the world's "first 6th generation fighter", representing the American air warA significant improvement in manufacturing. Compared to the predecessor B-2Bombersb-21It has been improved in terms of cost and mass production. However, its high cost is still one of the main concerns. At present, the overall public procurement cost is 246 billion US dollars, and the unit price is expected to be more than 700 million US dollars per aircraft, which further increases the procurement cost.
However, according to Russian media reports,b-21The goal of surpassing the B-2 was not fully achieved, because its unit price was too high to build. Moreover, Mikhailov believesb-21Even with the adoption of a new generation of stealth coatings, there are not many breakthroughs in the field of stealth materials, which are still located in Russia and China speciallyRadarWithin the detection range. Therefore,b-21It does not have the inability to be claimed by the United StatesChina and RussiaThe ability to probe.
According to a Russian Sputnik news agencyMilitaryAccording to expert Alexander Mikhailov, Russia has built several of themMeter-wave radarstation, capable of easily identifying stealth aircraft at a distance of up to 600 km, hypersonicand general flight equipment. Mikhailov believes that ifb-21InStealth technologyWithout a significant breakthrough, they will be carried by fighters within that distanceRadarand ground systemsRadarFound. In addition, China is equipped with something similarRadar, without any evidenceb-21can be sparedChina and Russiaof reconnaissance and surveillance.
In summary,China and Russiahas mastered the ability to effectively confrontb-21so that it does not pose a real threat. In addition, Mikhailov also said that, judging by the use of the B-2 by the United States, its operational targets are mainly small countries, which also hintsb-21There may be some kind of limiting framework, rather than having to ignore itChina and RussiaScouting ability.
Inb-21After the success of its first flight, the United States packaged it as a subversive new fighter to demonstrate its presence in air combatStrength and technological superiority in manufacturing. However, the reports of the Russian media revealedb-21Some limitations and the existence of countermeasure technology make it not have the unbeatable that the United States claimsChina and RussiaThe ability to probe.
As an individual, I think inMilitaryIn the competition for technological development, information warfare between countries is becoming more and more important. ** Coverage tends to be some kind ofAdvertised as an invincible killer, the actual situation is often not satisfactory. At this point, we need to remain calm and objective, pay attention to the real situation and evaluate it. At the same time, countries should explore more possibilities for cooperation and balance in technological development and arms race in order to achieve a more stable international security situation.
