印度鹰狮
印度的地形和它的人民一样多样. From the blistering heat of Rajasthan's deserts to the chilling cold of Leh's high-altitude regions, the country has many extreme weather conditions, 通常在边界. 因此, the 印度n 空气 Force requires fighter aircraft that can overcome extreme weather and perform effortlessly.
From dominating beyond visual range (BVR) missions to engaging in dogfights, 鹰狮E的武器系统覆盖所有基地. The fighter can carry a payload of 10 weapons to conduct a wide variety of offensive and defensive missions. Read on to learn about a few of the many weapon types that can be used with Gripen to maximise its lethality.
Every Gripen pilot goes through a carefully tailored training programme before flying the fighter in real life. 对于这次培训, a vital tool is the Gripen Mission Trainer simulator which can generate realistic environments for the pilot. The very high level of realism offered does not just prepare the pilots for the real deal but also reduces the live training time and cost significantly. 除了, 可以模拟具体的应急程序, many of which cannot be trained for in real life.
An effective Beyond Visual Range 空气-to-空气 Missile (BVRAAM) is a lot more than the range it offers. It is also about how big the “no escape zone” you generate, i.e. within what range you are 100 % certain of shooting down your target. Mission success is also highly dependent on the fighter that launches the missile. The level of integration between the fighter´s sensors, avionics and the Meteor makes all the difference.
Flying a fighter aircraft like Gripen is a dream for many pilots. But behind the realisation of this dream is an intense training process that encompasses everything from preparing the body for challenging scenarios to understanding the fighter inside out. In action are trainers with decades of flying experience, simulators that create realistic battle scenarios, and a process that keeps expanding to include new trends in defence technology.
当印度总理辛格先生. Narendra Modi launched the ‘Make in 印度’ campaign to create an environment in the country that is conducive to capability building, 投资, 技能发展, 除此之外, it resonated with the Saab values of self-reliance. 早在1937年, when the world was on the brink of another World War, Sweden decided to build its own fighter aircraft. Ever since, the country has strived to realise self-reliance in various domains, especially defence.
To create a world-class fighter aircraft manufacturing base in a country, it is important to build a strong network of partner firms first. 这个月, Saab’s Gripen team went on a road trip to major 印度n cities like Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai to have conversations with suppliers in areas such as electronic warfare, 监视和航空电子设备.
在全球广泛使用, the GPS (Global Positioning System) is a big support system for both civilian needs and military operations. It is a system of 30+ satellites orbiting the earth which broadcast signals and codes. These codes are then translated into accurate time and position on the receiver’s navigation device. 在国防领域, the GPS helps aircraft navigate safely through unchartered territories, and conduct surveillance and reconnaissance missions. It also helps in precise combat power by assisting GPS-guided missiles in tracking and targeting the enemies.
未来的拳手会是什么样子? 简单地说, it would be a platform that can keep integrating all the possible new areas of technology development – faster processing speeds, 人工智能, 新武器系统等. The question is whether such a fighter platform is ready for the taking given 印度’s quest for new fighters which necessarily have to keep absorbing rapid changes in EW, 武器系统, Human Machine Interface and the next generation of network-centric warfare.
In a live battleground, information is everything. 可靠的信息. 快.A great Human-Machine-Interface (HMI) is no longer enough for a pilot to sort and evaluate the available information in a highly contested battlespace. With modern networked sensors working together across systems, the information available can be massive and thus time consuming to evaluate. 每一秒都很重要.
