With phased array radar for missile Japanese army fans at the wrong tree

AESA radar

advanced, expensive and extra costs of electricity, is not installed on the fighter, but installed in the air to air missile small, guide head as disposable. This practice is Japanese, is only one in the world. This army fans warm discussion, Mitsubishi heavy this Is it right? "Wrong tech tree"?

according to Japanese Cheap Vikings Hats media reports, the launch of the AAM-4B in 2008, also known as the 99 type of air-to-air missile, a maximum range of 100 kilometers. Free thought, independent detection distance AAM-4B, air combat in advance into the active guidance, the aircraft can step back from, improve the survival probability. At the same time, by virtue of excellent AESA detection angle and anti-interference ability, found the greater probability.

however, there are both Cheap Jaguars Hats advantages and disadvantages. AAM-4B weighs 222 kilograms, the most in the same missile. "AESA radar is a tiger, should give it power supply, but also to fly far, had to take fuel." Military commentator Zhang Ming analysis, the AIM-120 was 150 kg, AAM-4B is so heavy, mobility is doubtful. "Actual combat, may become visible, not overtake situation."

in the view of Li Xiaojian, across the way from the leading head open, is not necessarily a good thing, because the radar warning system will trigger the enemy, let them have time to maneuver out of.

"now the medium range air-to-air missile, the most terrible is not radar technology to improve, but the power system improvement." Zhang Ming Cheap Jets Hats explained, because the power supply difficulties, the development of missile borne radar encountered bottleneck. And by using double pulse engine, can provide the range, more maneuver energy further for the missile, which has greater no escape Cheap Saints Hats zone.

according to Zhang Ming explanation, the double pulse solid rocket motor can make the stop restart, technical difficulty is great, but let the missile attack becomes difficult to get rid Cheap Rams Hats of. It is reported, at present only in the research and development of AIM-120D post type with this function, and improvement direction of this China is the next step for PL-12. (reporter Tu Chenxin)
