The newest Ares bomber was found to be carrying for the first time a 4-round heavy air-launched version of a hypersonic ballistic missile. In the previous two years of air shows, one aircraft mounted two such air-launched ballistic missiles appeared on public display; And it is the first time to hang 4 rounds at a time, which is the difference between a simple exhibition and a close to the actual combat deployment. The Ares of War, which has been thoroughly modernized and upgraded internally, has a very strong payload capacity. In the past, six ultra-long-range cruise missiles were mounted under the wings at one time; If the dead weight of 1 round and 2 tons is followed, then 6 rounds is a complete load of 12 tons; If a single shot is 2.5 tons, then it is an overweight load of 15 tons! You must know that in addition to the B52H strategic bomber in the world, other so-called strategic bombers rarely appear under the wing and carry 12 tons of ammunition at the same time. This also implies that although God of War evolved from the old H6, the old H6 is derived from Figure 16. But from Figure 16 all the way to the self-produced H6, the strength of the body is very impressive. In the stress destructive test, once loaded to 140%,
The external force has not broken the main beam, which is more than almost all the active aircraft in the world! Because other aircraft, whether bombers, transport aircraft, or even fighter aircraft, rarely increase the actual structural strength to 105% of the original design index; Once it exceeds 110%, it is necessary to reduce the thickness of the material and reduce the weight of the body. Loaded to 140% without any signs of breakage, it is incredible. This is also the confidence of the new God of War to dare to plug in 6 heavy bullets at one time. Now hanging four air-launched ballistic missiles at a time is actually the world's leading strike firepower. There are no longer 6 rounds at the same time, one possibility is that the full weight of a single shot of this air-launched high-altitude ballistic missile may exceed that of the previous ultra-long-range air-launched cruise missile; Another factor is that the 4-round payload mode pursues less air resistance in order to extend the range and increase the suddenness of strategic strikes. The internal oil range of the new Ares can exceed 10,000 km, and in principle, there is a radius of 4,500 km for aerial bombing. considering
The new Ares bomber group has no stealth capability, and during the long-range bombing mission in the open sea or land, it must penetrate the defense at ultra-low altitude throughout the whole process, and the air resistance is relatively large, so the actual combat strike radius is shortened to 3500 kilometers in principle; However, coupled with the fact that the air-launched version of the hyper ballistic missile itself has a range of at least 1,500 kilometers, the actual combat strike radius is still 5,000 kilometers. That is, it can quickly sweep an aircraft carrier battle group thousands of miles away, and it can also quickly wipe out all large fixed hostile targets on land and islands. Although strategic deterrence in peacetime is dominated by land-based and sea-based ASBMs, once it is actually combated. On the contrary, the air-launched version of the high-end ballistic missile is more flexible and mobile, and it is also a strategic killer weapon with a larger attack radius. Starting from the local base, 5,000 kilometers to the northeast, it can hit the whole of Alaska, whether it is the forward airfield of B2 or the NMD strategic anti-missile base, it is the bag of the new God of War carrying air-based ASBM; To the east and southeast, not only can you cross Guam 1,500 kilometers deep,
Even the entire Darwin US military base in North Australia can't run away. Strategically to the south and southwest, it can directly cover the entire subcontinent up to the coast of Diego Garcia. To the west-southwest, the range can cover most of the Red Sea. Towards the west and northwest. It can actually hit Bavaria! That's when the earth is big enough for you to talk to in the Eastern Hemisphere!
