Chapter 891: Turned out to be castrated

The Beagle Air Defense Missile is the Eagle State’s first-generation surface defense ship-to-air missile system. It is the first ship-to-air missile system equipped by the Eagle State Navy with all-weather, medium-range, and medium-to-low altitude air defense capabilities. The original code name is SAM-N-7, later changed to RIM-2, together with the "Brass Knight" and "Tatar" are collectively referred to as the "Three T" missile system of the United States.
After talking for a long time, this thing belongs to a ship-to-air missile system with all-weather, medium-range, and medium-to-low-altitude air defense capabilities. It is mainly used to defend various types of aircraft from medium and low altitude attacks.
The Beagle air defense missile is guided by radar beams. The combat is a continuous rod kill type. The maximum range is 16 kilometers, the maximum combat altitude is 12 kilometers, the maximum flight speed is 2.5 times the speed of sound, the full projectile length is 8.23 ​​meters, and the bullet diameter is the first. The second stage is 0.34 meters, the first stage is 0.40 meters, and the total mass is 1360 kg.
For the current Han Navy, this thing does not seem to be backward, because the Han Navy now has nothing, and it seems good to have an air defense missile.
However, Qin Guan is certainly not satisfied. The standard anti-aircraft missile equipped with the Kidd-class destroyer has a range of more than 40 kilometers, which means that if the first interception fails, it can still carry out a second interception, but for the Beagle In other words, once the interception fails for the first time, there will not be a second time and the warship will be hit.
Han China needs not only air defense missiles, but also regional air defense missiles. Now this short-range air defense missile technology does not have much appeal to Han.
It's no wonder that in terms of arms exports, the Eagles did not object this time and just exported them.
It is no longer possible to receive the original buyer, Shah Nation, and the navy of the Eagle Nation looks down on it, so they can only export it. Han Nation can now use gold for settlement, which is of course better.
Will it cause high-precision technology leakage? Of course, it is impossible for our side to have no plans to export standard missiles. Anyway, the double-mounted launcher can launch standard missiles and Beagle missiles.
As for the anti-ship missiles, when this warship was exported to the Parthian nation, there was no plan to install it. It was added after the Eagle Nation Navy equipped itself.
What else can this large ship with a displacement of nearly 10,000 tons have?
In terms of air defense firepower, if there is no standard missile, it is like no shield. At the same time, it has not been equipped with the most common Harpoon anti-ship missile of the Eagle State Navy. Therefore, it cannot perform anti-ship missions, and it will lose its sharpness. sword.
It can be said that the functions are about to be castrated.
The only thing that can be said is that anti-submarine is left. That's right, the Han Navy came to look for it in the world arms market because of its insufficient anti-submarine capabilities.
In fact, the Eagle State Navy didn’t know that what the Han State Navy needed most was air defense capability. It was the enemy’s sea javelin system that constantly inspected Niu’s 42 destroyers.
However, the Sea Javelin missile and our own Brass Knight missile belong to the first generation of air defense missiles. Our standard missiles are already a new generation, and they are definitely not exported.
Now, looking at the excitement of the Han Chinese navy, it seems that they are looking forward to the new ship, that is extremely urgent, and General Thomas has increased his confidence.
Qin Guan's brain was spinning rapidly, and at the same time he was thinking about his own countermeasures.
Standard missiles are what they need most urgently. They can leap to the world's advanced level in one fell swoop. However, it is not easy to get Eagles to give them missiles.
How can you fool the other person?
Suddenly, Qin Guan thought of something, and immediately full of confidence, said to Thomas and the others: "This dual-mounted launcher is too backward. After we import it, we must make some improvements."
Now, almost all anti-aircraft missiles are equipped with dual-mounted launchers, just like a gantry crane. Two missiles stay on the launchers. The launchers can rotate back and forth to launch missiles at any time.
Of course, there are not only two missile stocks on the warship. Under the missile launcher, there is also a special missile stock. After the missiles are launched, automatic loading can be carried out, and the interval is not long.
However, no matter what, reloading after the launch is definitely a waste of time. In this case, it is not as good as a professional vertical launch system.
Hearing Qin Guan’s words, Thomas was taken aback. These Han Chinese actually said that their warships were not advanced enough?
"For our warships, the biggest threat is anti-ship missiles. Today's anti-ship missiles can be launched from aircraft, surface ships, and submarines, and can perform full-scale, multi-batch saturation attacks. A large surface ship In less than 30 seconds, it can be attacked by at least 6 anti-ship missiles from all directions."
Qin Guan started to cite data, let alone the performance of the Beagle missile, even if it can stop it, how many can it stop?
"In the face of this threat, only as far as the launch system of a missile defense weapon is concerned, it must have a short reaction time, a high firing rate, a sufficient amount of ammunition, and an omni-directional launch that does not require ship maneuvering or launcher targeting. Capability." Qin Guan said: "For traditional rotating aiming launch systems, the combat response time appears to be too long, and the amount of ammunition cannot meet the requirements for the powerful firepower of today's anti-ship missiles."
Qin Guan's guidance is like the owner of the most advanced technology of this era, but in fact, only the Luda class is behind the Han Navy to support the facade, and even the nuclear submarine of the Xiong State can't stop it.
"Chief Qin, do you mean the vertical launch system?" Thomas couldn't help asking, this old general, who has served in the Eagle Nation Navy for decades, hasn't experienced anything? All at once knew what Qin Guan wanted to say.
The dual-mounted missile launcher, of course, cannot cope with the increasingly complex threat of anti-ship missiles in the world. Only the development of a vertical launch system can meet the demand.
The missile launcher is to launch the missiles by hanging them at a time, while the vertical launch system is like a well with the missiles directly in it, so it can be launched directly. There are so many silos that do not require any complicated mechanical steps, and all missiles can be shot out at any time.
Of course, the Eagle State Navy knows that this vertical launch system is the most convenient and most suitable. Only it can be combined with the Aegis system using phased array radar to give full play to its power. However, they want to develop it. It's not that easy.
