With the development of modern warfare, fighter aircraft, as the main equipment of air operations, has become increasingly competitive in terms of performance and capabilities. Under this fierce competition, many netizens did compare the strongest fourth-generation aircraft F15 with China's fourth-generation aircraft J-10. Even, some people question: can our fourth-generation aircraft J-10 compete with the F-15, a formidable opponent?
F-15 fighter with a captain of 1945 meters with a wingspan of 1305 meters, the height of the machine is 5At 65 meters, it is a fighter with a tandem two-seat swept wing aerodynamic layout, with all-weather combat capability. Among them, two F110 afterburner turbofan engines are installed, capable of flying at a maximum speed of 2Mach 5 makes a flight.
It is mainly used for air superiority combat missions, and air-ground combat modifications have also been developed. In practice, it can carry a variety of missiles and aerial bombs, including AIM-7 air-to-air missiles, AIM-9 air-to-air missiles, AIM-120 air-to-air missiles, ordinary aerial missiles, free-fall nuclear bombs and GBU-28 bunker penetrating bombs. And the carrying and application of these ** can enable the fighter to have the ability to destroy enemy aircraft and carry out air-to-ground attack missions.
At the same time, it has a combat radius of 1967 kilometers, which means: it is possible to perform tasks at a greater distance. It is also equipped with an M61A1 Vulcan cannon, which can be used for fire support in close air combat.
The J-10 fighter is a high-performance, multi-purpose fighter independently developed by China. Among them, it has high reliability, high survivability, and high maneuverability, and the advantages of these aspects are combined, which can play an excellent comprehensive combat efficiency in a relatively complex combat environment, and can also reach the advanced level of similar fighters in the world.
According to relevant information: the size of the fuselage of the fighter is 1457 meters, wingspan 878 meters, the maximum speed can reach 2Mach 0 with a maximum ceiling of 18,000 meters.
Among them, the combat radius can also be as high as 1100 km, the maximum take-off weight can reach 19277 kg, the bomb load is 7000 kg, and the thrust-to-weight ratio is greater than 11。
Although it is expressed in words, it may indeed be that there are only these data, but in these non-intuitive expressions, we can still feel its better thrust and weight ratio.
In addition, the J-10 fighter also has a powerful attack capability and can attach 11 payload points. This allows it to carry a wide range of ** and equipment to meet the needs of different combat missions.
Air combat as the main way of modern warfare, the degree of advanced fighters is very important, the number of fighters in China, the United States and Russia comparison, the United States is the country with the largest number of fighters in the world, up to 13,200 aircraftThe total number of Russian fighters is 3800, and how many Chinese air fighters have reached it?
The advantage of air combat lies in the ability to overlook ground targets from a high place, and it can also move quickly and realize long-range bombing attacks to intercept the enemy's attacks, and can even cause a certain degree of obstruction and strikes against the enemy's land and sea operations.
Especially with the increase of the strike power of the carrying, the power system of the fighter is enhanced, and the new composite materials used to build the fighter are more light and fuel-efficient.
The United States has 13,200 warplanes
The US military has been Xi using the method of aerial bombing operations for a long time, and even during World War II, the US military dispatched a large number of air fighters; although the model and advanced degree of the fighters are very different from the current new fighters, the US military has occupied a very important decisive opportunity on the battlefield with its intensive bombing frequency and an astonishing number of fighter formations.
Even after the appearance of long-range missiles, when the US military carried out the bombing plan, it was still 1,000 kilometers away from the bombing target, and the launch procedure could be started, and then the fighters returned home.
Therefore, the United States' Xi of using fighters, coupled with the United States' ambition for unlimited expansion of armaments, has brought the total number of American fighters to a total of 13,200.
Of course, there are many old fighter models, and there are also various different types of fighters, such as bombers, fighters, transport aircraft, air tankers and various other fighters.
In addition, the United States also has an aircraft cemetery, where more than 5,000 old fighters after retirement have been parked, and many of them are still capable of fighting, but because they are replaced and on the verge of retirement, after the important engines are removed for maintenance and storage, these fighters are parked in the open hangar, and once they are urgently needed for use in special periods, they can be quickly assembled and can still perform combat missions.
If these planes are added, the total number of US fighters is even more staggering, and the number of fighters in the world together is not as large as that of the United States, and this description is not an exaggeration.
