In China, they said that it would give the J-20 fighter an advantage over the F-35 in air combat

70

In the military-thematic section of the Chinese publication, Sohu decided to discuss the appropriateness of the installation aviation guns on fifth generation fighters. The author of the material recalls the complaints of American pilots about significant vibration in the F-35 cockpit when using an air gun. This vibration acted on the display of information on monitors.

In addition, the effectiveness of using an automatic 4-barrel aircraft gun on a fifth-generation American fighter has raised questions in connection with the implementation of maneuvers in the air.



Sohu says the fifth generation fighter aircraft is an echo from the past. Chinese author:

To date, the J-20 is the only adopted fighter in the world that does not have an air gun. At the same time, the J-20 has a chance to get a significant advantage over the American F-35.

It is noted that in order to obtain such an advantage, a laser aircraft gun must be installed on a Chinese-made fighter.
From the material:

So far, no fighter has a laser aircraft gun. And if the J-20 receives it, and this can be expected in the near future, then we can talk about its significant superiority.

In China, I comment on this statement, they say that the laser cannon in the event of a “meeting” of the J-20 and F-35 at a relatively short distance will give the new generation Chinese fighter an undeniable advantage in air combat.

          Fu-35 will die earlier, before it becomes infected with a coronovirus. This virus requires long-term contact, and penguin-35 is not designed for a long fight. Oh, how would the Serbian word penguin dash 35 fit, but alas, the dislike of the Serbs of our filter compilers prohibits the use of harmless words of other nations.

        Hi Roma! hi Neither one nor the other needs a cannon for the near WB because by the maneuverability of the BVB they can only lead with transporters. If you only provide for the SC, but somehow I can hardly imagine them here (for the SC using a gun), there is not enough imagination.

      Yeah, both ours and the Americans also refused guns at one time, but in Vietnam it suddenly became clear that missiles were not a panacea and in a close combat a gun was very necessary and they began to abruptly set them back.

        The Americans started the F-16 program after Vietnam - "it got to the giraffe" that air superiority is gained by sweat and blood in close air combat and, accordingly, by a light maneuverable aircraft (at that time MiG-21). How can one do without a gun in such a battle? But does the F-35 have sufficient maneuverability? Hence the question: is this apparatus capable of conducting BVB? And maybe he really doesn't need a gun?
        1. +3
          5 February 2020 10: 10
          I could be wrong, of course, but neither the F-35 nor the J-20 are designed for BVB. One has vibration and a lack of maneuverability, the other has everything muddy with the characteristics, and there is no gun. So in the event of a direct clash in the BVB, none of them has a chance before ours. But here, again, the use of aviation in a complex will rule, taking into account the use of AWACS aircraft, countering electronic warfare, air defense and other factors. In any case, I believe that the penguin will not be helped by his alleged "invisibility", and the Chinese are unlikely to have anything shining. There, in general, in my opinion, continuous PR, judging by the lack of any data on the performance characteristics of the Chinese.

        And the real "Great Chinese" wall ran through the whole of Eurasia, part of it was even on the British Isles. Remains, earthen embankments, have survived to this day. These are the so-called "serpent's shafts". In some places they are such that the material of a kilometer of this "shaft" is enough for the Great Egyptian pyramid.

      And it depends on what kind. If the old one, which is several hundred years old, then yes, in its own direction the loopholes and in the "alien" stairs. The oldest surviving fragments of the wall are no more than several hundred years old, the building material (brick) does not stand up anymore, it crumbles into dust.

          I can't say for Kazansky, I don't know. And the modern Moscow Kremlin was built in the middle of the 19th century, after Napoleon. It was COMPLETELY destroyed in the so-called "fire". Memories of persons from Napoleon's retinue have been preserved. The destruction was such that it was impossible to pass, the emperor and his retinue had to get out of the Kremlin along an underground passage, which began in some sort of heap of garbage. And all moves began ONLY from the towers, from which it follows that the towers were destroyed during the "fire". And yet, the expression "Moscow white stone" is still preserved. The Kremlin walls were built of white stone, and now they are of red brick. Although the surviving fragments of white stone were used in minor, inconspicuous places.
          The durability of the brick is well illustrated by the preserved medieval European knight's castles, or rather what is left of them. It makes no sense to talk about thousands of years, a maximum of five hundred years.

    Will the laser gun run on batteries?

    Will be. Mask, Australia has one. 149 megawatts of installed power. True, out of 15 million finger-type elements made in fraternal China and torn out of the batteries of his electric car. Refurbished, and selected from a heap of completely dead.

    I would like to know what this value is in meters
    at a relatively short distance

    Ours, too, at one time removed the guns from the MiG-21, no, I had to put them back to Phantoms and others to treat. One trouble with laser guns, clouds and other turbidity prevent them. And GS these things on the drum, the main thing is to aim.

    I can not insert a photo of the "serpent shafts".

    You cannot directly place a picture here. Drag it to a dump of files, for example, I have a resource on the RADICAL. And taking the link from there, insert it here. For the correct image, you need to take the SECOND line in the links of the radical. For others, it happens, you need the 6th line.
