What is the propeller in front of the H 6 refueling pod for?

Propeller aircraft are divided into piston propeller aircraft and turboprop aircraft according to different engine types. The indirect reaction engine is to drive the propeller of the aircraft to rotate by the engine to work on the air, so that when the air accelerates and flows backwards, the air produces a reaction force on the propeller (rotor) to propel the aircraft.

At the front of the pod is a small fan that drives the generator to generate electricity independently, and does not need to be connected to the power supply or hydraulic system from the mother unit.

The pod is equivalent to adding additional capacity to the aircraft, and the basic pod types have been listed on the first floor.

Nonsense, you said you bought it? Do people sell it or not?

The H-6 is equivalent to the enhanced version of the B-29, which is very old, but there is no way, China's large aircraft development has been fooled by foreign countries, so it has been stagnant, this rotten model can only be used as a strategic bomber at present, the speed is slow, not stealth, basically a day to the sky is a beaten cargo. Compared to the American F117 with the B-2

China still has a long way to go.

H6 is indeed obsolete long ago. Just say that the more advanced bomber Maozi refuses to give us, and it is indeed politically sensitive.

There are several aspects to consider.

Whether it is necessary or not. Whether the Russian side sells or not.

Whether it is required or not. Whether it is cost-effective or not.

Support the view of the moon in the middle of the sky 88.

According to you, the B52, which is earlier than the Figure 16, should also be lethal, but people are not still mixed well in the US military.

By the way, the same support is in the middle of the moon.

People have to sell it...

The H-6 is a target aircraft without cover.

Generally, a fighter can be in service for a long time after improvement, the United States F15 and the like are all in the 70s, and now it is still relatively advanced, so the H-6 should still be in service for a long time, and China is a defensive country, the demand for bombers is not large, it is estimated that it will not be changed until about 2020, and it will not be able to say anything new at that time, but as usual, it should be similar to B2, and it is almost a bomber with a bomb load of more than ten tons, However, it is said that now the bomber will be replaced by a multifunctional fighter, or it will become the Su34 type, after all, the bomber is slow.

The above is a personal opinion).

From the current point of view, the H-6 is still being produced in small batches, maintained at a certain proportion, and is used for maritime patrol and anti-ship.

After all, our country is a national defense based on "defense", and it is not necessary to continue to develop large and medium-sized bombers.

In the future, it will be similar to the Su-34 fighter-bomber, with a bomb load close to the H-6, but it has stronger penetration and air supremacy (over-the-horizon air combat capabilities) and a greater chance of survival.

Therefore, the future should be a domestic "platypus" (Hanhe speculates that the expected bomb load of the domestic Su-34 is about 8 tons, slightly lower than the H-6 of 9 tons).

Refer to the **configuration of the Su-34: fixed** is a GSH-301 30mm cannon (180 rounds of ammunition, rate of fire 1500 rounds, muzzle velocity 860 m/s). There are a total of 10 pylons on board, which can carry a variety of **, including 140 rounds of SPPU-22GSH-236 23mm 6-barreled Gatling gun pod, R-77 medium-range air-to-air missile, R-73 short-range air-to-air missile, KH-29 L, KH-31P, KH-59, HK-59M, HK-15PM and other air-to-ground air-to-surface missiles, FAB-250 series guided bombs, RBK-500 submunitions, BETAB anti-runway concrete bombs, PTAB-1M anti-tank ammunition, Shoab anti-personnel anti-personnel bombs, etc.

Su-34 conventional bombing mode.

It will not be decommissioned at all, and now it is being improved to enter service with the new H6K.

First of all, the word "engine" is a transliteration of the word "engine", which means engine. Then, the B-52 used a turbofan engine, and the Tu-95 used a turboprop engine, and both engine structures were modified on the basis of turbojet engines. The turboprop engine of the Tu-95 is much more advanced than the piston propeller engine of World War II, which is based on the same principle as a car engine, with a more powerful shaft and lower fuel consumption than a piston engine.

Turboprop engines and turbofan engines with large bypass ratio are characterized by low fuel consumption at low speeds, which are suitable for subsonic passenger aircraft, transport aircraft, and bombers. Because lower fuel consumption means longer range, and higher economy for civil aviation. A long-range subsonic strategic bomber like the Tu-95 can be used with a turboprop or turbofan engine, and its power system is still advanced.

Finally, I personally feel that the Tu-95 powertrain is superior to the B-52, because the Tu-95 uses only four engines, while the B-52 uses as many as eight engines. More engines mean more weight, more complex structures, and worse logistical maintenance, which is a helpless move with insufficient thrust for a single engine.

This is because the current production speed of the Russian Tu-160 bomber is too slow, and it is impossible to exchange one Tu-160 for one Tu-95; In the event of a rush to decommission all Tu-95s, this will only significantly weaken the strategic bombing power of the Russian Air Force.

The Tu-95 has a swept wing with four turboprop engines, each driving two large-diameter reversing four-bladed propellers. The fuselage is elongated, the wingspan and aspect ratio are large, and both the flat tail and the vertical tail have large sweep angles.

The wing cantilever medium single wing, all-metal three-beam structure, basically made of aluminum alloy. The inner section of the wing 1 4 chord long sweep angle 37 °, the outer section 1 4 chord long sweep angle 35 °. aspect ratio, relative thickness 10 13.

The trailing edge of the outer wing has hydraulically operated ailerons with adjustment tabs on the aileron and spoilers in front of the aileron to aid lateral manoeuvring. In the inner section of the trailing edge of the wing, a large area of the receding slit flap is installed, which is lowered by 30 ° during take-off, and the lift coefficient is reached; Lowered 45 ° during landing, lift coefficient. The wings are equipped with 3 wing knives on the left and right.

The leading edge of the wing has a hot air anti-icing device.

The fuselage is a semi-monocoque all-metal structure with a circular cross-section, consisting of the front section of the fuselage, the middle section of the fuselage and the tail section, which is basically the same as the fuselage arrangement of the Tu-16. The front section of the fuselage has a transparent nose cover, radar cabin, navigator cabin and cockpit. Above the cockpit there is a circular transparent bulge for observation by pilots and pilots, allowing for astronomical navigation and maneuvering the turret above the rear fuselage.

The wing passed through the middle of the fuselage, behind which was a large bomb bay. The tail section was equipped with a tail turret.

The tail cantilever all-metal structure has sweep angles for both vertical and horizontal stabilizers and adjustable flat tail mounting angles. The rudder and elevator are hydraulically operated. There are adjustment tabs on each rudder surface, and there is an anti-icing device on the leading edge of the flat tail.

The vertical tail wingtips are made of non-metallic materials. The Russian army has actually been modernizing the aircraft.

The Tu-95-MS is at least several times more advanced than the bombers of this type used by China, the H-6-K.

This Tu-95 is a turboprop engine, not the previous piston propeller engine. It is characterized by fuel economy, that is, fuel economy. The maximum flight speed can reach 900 km h.

Now domestic civil aviation regional aircraft also have such turboprop engines. In addition, there are currently three types of aircraft engines: turbojet engines, turbofan engines, and turboprop engines.

The Tu-95 has been retrofitted with the latest on-board electronics and its engines have been modernized. Moreover, the latest Tu-95MS can use long-range strategic air-launched cruise missiles Kh-101 and Kh-555 with a range of 3,500-5,000 kilometers.

To correct you for a common sense mistake, turboprops are technically closer to turbojets than to piston engines during World War II.

Even anti-submarine aircraft are now used with turboprops instead of pistons.

Now that you've figured this out, you can solve the rest of the problem yourself. The Tu-95 is several times more advanced than the H-6 jet bomber used in China.

I also think it's very backward, but there are not many countries that have it, how many countries do you think the bombers are made, not to mention long-range strategic bombers, B52 and Tu-95 are both products of the same period of the Cold War, do you think it will be far behind?

I feel that 160 is not necessarily refunded if 95 is returned.

Russia is poor and does not have the money to develop new aircraft. This plane was used first.

3. Heavy fighters can be hung in various pods. It can be used for multi-purpose operations, for example, after the addition of laser pods, it can realize air-to-ground laser-guided precision attacks and carry out multi-purpose operations. The electronic jamming pod can be used as a substitute for the electronic jamming machine.

4. Heavy fighters have a lot of room for improvement, and can be transformed into a variety of fighters to better carry out a variety of tasks. For example, the Su-27 has a variety of models such as air superiority, ground attack, two-seater, reconnaissance, carrier-based, trainer, and electronic warfare.

5. Heavy fighters are generally double-engined, which is safer for personnel, and if an engine is broken, it can barely fly home.

With the development of engines, fighters and so on are getting bigger and bigger, in order to add more functions, load more **, in the sixties and seventies, there are a lot of air giants, and later with the improvement of avionics level, the strengthening of manufacturing technology, fighters and bombers are no longer pursuing bigger and better, and the small body is more conducive to maneuverability and stealth, such as the fourth-generation F22 is much smaller than its predecessor F15.

Quite simply, because the fighter power has increased dramatically.

It is precisely because of the improvement of power that although modern fighters are large in size, equipped with more advanced equipment, and carry a large amount of ammunition, their flight speed, altitude, and strike effect have been doubled, and they can also load more fuel and have a greater range or air time.

The previous engine power was not enough, of course, the take-off weight was not much, and the plane was not big, otherwise you would not be able to fly.

It is true that the range is a matter of one aspect, but as long as you don't hang up the bomb and fill up the tank, it won't be too much of a problem. After all, it's just a deterrent cruise, and it doesn't matter if you have a bomb belt or not.

Let me start by introducing three Russian medium- and long-range strategic bombers. Figure 95, its ultimate range of nearly 15,000km (no bomb, full of fuel) and it has a fuel tube, within the range of human physiology, the range can also be extended, and it is four rounds, the safety is higher, and China's Tu 16 (H 6) is only a double engine, if you encounter an air special situation far away from the motherland will be very troublesome, and then the Tu 22m (some models with air refueling tubes) and Tu 160 (with air fuel tubes) They do not have such a long range, that is, the level of five or six thousand meters (I personally think that the Russian propeller engine is OK, but the fuel consumption of the jet engine is really amazing), in addition to the larger bomb loadThe range may not be as good as the H-6, and the Tu-22 has also been converted into a reconnaissance aircraft and an electronic countermeasure aircraft, and its true purpose of development is questionable. Another important point is that there are no large air tankers in our country.

And we can't learn from Russia, Russia's cruise is routine, in the former Soviet Union, Russia's Tu-95 has to spare Europe and fly to the United States every week, so that NATO can talk about the change of color, but after the collapse of the Soviet Union, this routine cruise was interrupted for decades, and after 2008, Russia started this routine cruise again, but the interval is very long, not frequent. It's just a deterrent cruise, to let the world know that Russia is an absolute military power.

There are enough things in our country, it's not that we are born to be patient, you see, which country around here has a good relationship with us?It's good if you don't mess with us, but we still have to take the initiative to provoke others, there's no need. Moreover, if bombers are sent to patrol, Japan and the United States will also use a series of countermeasures, and there is a difference in the nature of sending reconnaissance planes and bombers.

There is still a long way to go in the development of China's military industry, and if we want not to be bullied by others, we must show real skills and hope that the motherland will become strong at an early date!

Yes, the range is insufficient.

Flying around the Japanese archipelago is not something that any aircraft can do. Although the Japanese archipelago is small in size, it has a range of 8,000 kilometers around it because of its long and narrow shape. The Tu-95 developed by the former Soviet Union has a range of up to 15,000 kilometers, which is far beyond this level, and its ultra-long endurance is only comparable to the B-52.

At present, the US and Russian heavy bombers, including the Tu-95, Tu-22M, Tu-160, B-52, B-1B, and B-2, have a range of more than 11,000-12,000 kilometers, that is, they all have the ability to fly around Japan for a week.

China's H-6 bombers are between 5,000 and 6,000 kilometers away, and they cannot complete the purpose of circling Japan.

In addition, from a political point of view, this approach is not in line with the peaceful rise advocated and will affect the country's political image, and such a move will not be made.

China has no strategic bombers at all, so China is the only one of the five recognized nuclear powers that has not achieved the Trinity.

The H-6 is an imitation of the Soviet Tu-16 in the 50s, and if it can prevent success in the 50s, it will be considered an advanced bomber, and it can go through almost 20 years of repeated tossing and turning, and by the end of the 60s, it will be imitated, and it will be a completely backward aircraft. China's air force didn't look down on it, and the navy pinched its nose and ordered 5 planes to be equipped, and the remaining 6 planes were resold to Iraq through Jordan during the Iran-Iraq war.

Flying from China to Japan, and then flying around the four islands of Japan, will definitely not work.
