Chapter 2639 Aviation Bomb

Six rockets were launched in just a few seconds, dragging a long flue towards the target on the ground. Soon, six rockets hit a position directly, stirring up bursts of smoke.

Immediately afterwards, the Fujia intelligent attack drone was pulled up and rotated, and an air-to-ground missile entered the ready state. This is a small air-to-ground missile mounted on a drone, used to attack some precise targets.

In the first picture of the Fujia intelligent attack drone, the intelligent system locked the target of a tank running on the ground, and then the missile was launched.

Immediately after the pylon rotated, another air-to-surface missile also rotated out and was launched.

I saw these two air-to-surface missiles drawing a large circle in the air, and then dived towards the target of the two moving tanks and armored vehicles.

Boom, boom!

With the two explosions, the two high-speed moving tank targets were accurately focused, and a violent explosion occurred, and the targets were directly blown into the sky.

Da da da da…

At the same time, the automatic cannon under the belly of the Fujia intelligent attack drone also rang, and began to shoot at the remaining moving targets on the ground.

A string of shells hit the ground, throwing up bursts of dust.

Each target was successfully destroyed, either with a big hole punched through it, or directly blown to pieces. Although the power of the twenty-millimeter cannon is limited, it is not something that these targets can withstand.

After releasing these shells, the Fujia intelligent attack drone immediately raised its altitude. Then the rotating rack in the magazine under the belly rotated, revealing the last ammunition.

This is an ordinary aerial bomb without any guidance device. In other words, this aerial bomb requires precise calculations to accurately hit the target.

With the invention of airplanes and their use in war, various weapons have been equipped on airplanes one after another, including the two most important weapons.

One is the aviation machine gun, or aviation cannon. The other type is aerial bombs.

Even until the 1960s and 1970s, the main attack weapons of aircraft were these two types. One was an aircraft machine gun used for air combat, and of course it was also used for land strikes. Later, it developed into aircraft aircraft of various types and calibers. gun.

The other type is aerial bombs. The early aerial bombs actually mounted the artillery shells on the aircraft, and then flew over the enemy and dropped them to bomb them.

Later, on this basis, aerial bombs were derived that were actually mounted on aircraft and used for land strikes. To put it bluntly, the earliest aerial bombs were simply welded with several tail fins on the tail of the shell, allowing it to ensure that the fuse on the warhead hit the ground, thereby detonating the aerial bomb. This effectively avoids duds caused by the fuze not hitting the ground.

Later, with the development of aerial bombs, various aerial bombs appeared one after another, but most of them were similar in appearance and structure. Later, people designed different fuzes, tail fins, and loaded various ammunition for these aerial bombs according to needs, so that they could adapt to various combat environments.

But at this time, these aerial bombs basically do not have a guidance function, which means that these aerial bombs are just ordinary bombs and need to be thrown by the pilot.

In order to improve the hit rate of aerial bomb delivery, various countries have also begun research in this area. Initially, of course, the pilot's experience was relied upon to make judgments and control the aircraft to drop aerial bombs on ground targets.

This method is very dangerous. The dive bombing method is generally used, that is, the aircraft enters the dive bombing route and drops the bomb after it almost reaches the target. In this way, these aerial bombs will fall on the target along the bombing trajectory.

However, this method of dropping bombs is very dangerous, and the hit rate is also very limited. These important ground targets are often surrounded by various anti-aircraft artillery. Once a fighter plane dives to drop bombs, it is easy to be attacked by these anti-aircraft artillery.

So many times, pilots had to brave the hail of bullets to drop bombs. In order to avoid being hit, some pilots may panic drop their bombs before reaching the predetermined position, and then quickly pull up to escape, resulting in a very low hit rate once again.

With the development of aviation technology, large bombers specially used for ground bombing appeared and began to undertake ground bombing missions. This type of bomber carries more ammunition, which is unmatched by previous dive bombers and fighters.

Because of its large size and large bomb load, it is naturally impossible to carry out dive bombing. Therefore, bombers usually use horizontal bombing, that is, after flying quickly over the target, they open the magazine and drive to release bombs, and then drop all the ammunition at once, thus forming a huge bombing zone on the ground.

The quantity of these ammunition can be used to cover the target area to a large extent, thereby achieving the purpose of destroying ground targets.

So the question is, how to aim at ground targets when bombing in such a high airspace? This becomes a problem. So the aerial sight, also known as the bombsight, appeared.

It is generally equipped on the belly of the aircraft, and is observed by the bombardier in the cabin. After the sight is aimed at the ground target, the bomb can be dropped immediately. In this way, aerial bombs can be dropped on ground targets more accurately, thereby destroying the targets.

However, the accuracy of this method is actually very limited. Because this kind of unguided and unpowered aerial bomb relies entirely on aircraft for delivery. What kind of altitude, what kind of speed, and even the wind speed in the air will affect the accuracy of bomb delivery, so later a special bomb delivery computer appeared for calculations in this area.

But even so, the popularity of this kind of conventional aerial bombs is very limited, otherwise it would not be possible to develop the concept of so-called carpet bombing.

With the development of guidance technology, this kind of ordinary aerial bombs have gradually been eliminated. Only now some countries are forced to mount these iron bombs to bomb their enemies. There are also some countries that use these ordinary aerial bombs for daily training and treat them as consumption of inventory. After all, decommissioning and dismantling these ordinary aerial bombs is also troublesome, time-consuming, laborious and expensive.

Now, this Fujia intelligent attack drone is going to demonstrate the airdrop of ordinary aerial bombs, which has aroused strong interest in everyone, and of course they can't help but question it.

Without any human control, this kind of unpowered, unguided ordinary aerial bomb can penetrate the soul and accurately attack the target.

Didi didi...

As a beep sounded, in the first-person view of the Fujia intelligent attack drone, the intelligent system had locked on the ground target, which was a bridge target.

When the Fujia intelligent attack drone arrived in the predetermined airspace, the ordinary aerial bomb mounted on the rotating pylon was immediately released. Under the gaze of everyone, he fell towards the target on the ground.
